"That was obviously some terrible mistake. Radiance must have been startled by your sudden arrival, that's all! We're all a bit anxious you see - we are on a mission to gather allies to deal with a world-threatening disaster! Although I think that you might know what disaster I am talking about - the greatest of all evils, the villainess!"
"...!"
The light brown-haired girl used just the right words at just the right time to make Mika jump up in shock and make her cease any hostile actions that she planned on initially.
"You... you are against that evil woman...?"
Mika gasped and walked up to the older girl.
"Yes, I and my friends are all against her. But let me explain something first... that woman, no, that wretched being is more than just any run of the mill villainess... she's a threat not only to the system but to the world itself! She needs to be dealt with or everything will be destroyed!"
The light brown-haired girl nodded vigorously and grabbed Mika's hands while speaking feverishly.
"Let's get out of here, I'll introduce you to my friends and you will decide by yourself whether we are trustworthy or not!"
"...!"
The young woman declared and jumped out of the crater, pulling Mika with her.
"!!!!!!!"
The first thing that Mika saw, was the terrifying close-up of one of the gigantic angel-class monster's faces - since the monster itself was crouching down by the crater keenly observing the two girls.
"Radiance, you need to learn to respect the personal space of the little creatures like us."
The light brown-haired girl smiled and lightly shook her head.
"...ah...! Sorry..."
The monster flinched and pulled back as if it got embarrassed.
"Miss Wrath, first, I'd like to introduce you to your strongest ally."
The young woman laughed, let go of Mika's hands, and walked over to the still crouching monstrosity.

"This is the Radiance, the angel-class king-rank monster and the direct proxy to the will of this world."
She waved her hands presenting the unbelievable beast.
"King-rank angel class...? So...! A god-class monster?! Wait! Will of the world?!"
"...nice to meet you..."
Mika was so taken aback by the monster's greeting, that she almost fell right back to the crater she just got out of - but somehow managed to keep her balance despite the shock.
"See, aren't you two a pair of besties already? Radiance is probably the second one of us all in terms of how much she wants that awful villainess gone!"
The young woman nodded excitedly.
"Hey, Radiance, be a doll and blow away some of that annoying mist, okay? I want to show miss Wrath the rest of our companions!"
She looked up at the giant angel-class monster and called loudly so that she would be heard.
"...okay..."
Radiance nodded and stood up.
"...!"
Only then Mika realized that the enormous monster was speaking in such a specific way most likely because it was whispering - its actual voice would have probably made them all go deaf if the beast spoke on its full capacity - it was such an amazing show of consideration towards them that Mika instantly felt that Radiance couldn't be a truly bad creature.
...and as the ashen-haired girl's expression became softer the light brown-haired girl in front of her smirked triumphantly already knowing that all of her lies worked and she had already won Mika over...
*WHOOOOOSH*
With just a few flaps of its massive wings, Radiance had cleared out a cathedral-worth of space from the presence of the mist, revealing four other human-sized silhouettes that the light brown-haired girl hurriedly approached and waved at Mika to follow her.
"This one is another person we came here to pick up."
The young woman had pointed at a tall, beautiful dark-skinned woman with long wild spiky hair and mysterious dark eyes, clad in light armor with two long daggers strapped to her belt on both sides of her waist.

"Miss Nomannic joined us because the villainess is keeping her beloved hostage and she understandably wants to set him free."
"..."
You are reading story The Villainess and I, her Zombie at novel35.com
The light brown-haired girl explained and Nomannic nodded at Mika without changing her indifferent expression.
"...! That's sounds just like something that this vile woman would do!"
Mika growled and clenched her fists angrily.
"This hooded guy over there isn't anyone suspicious, don't let the hood fool you!"
The young woman moved on and was now introducing a menacing-looking person who was hiding their face under a big hood of their traveling coat.
"Actually, you might have heard about him already..."
The young woman smirked mysteriously.
"Because of the villainess, he lost his parents, his family, his status, and was dragged into the literal grave before clawing his way out of there. Mason Envy, the fallen half-elf in person!"
"...!"
The introduction had already left Mika wide-eyed, and when the person themself had put down their hood and revealed the handsome face of the young man with piercing green eyes but the unnatural ashen-grey skin, the ashen-haired girl was left speechless.
In the report on Cranberry Pride that Mika read together with Corvus and the three bodyguards when they first left the Wraths mansion, Mason was clearly listed as one of the casualties of Cranberry's slaughter.
"Would you stop with the circus... we are not some attractions."
Mason frown and scoffed at the light brown-haired girl.
"Oh, don't be like that, Mason, you know me best, right?"
"...yeah..."
She winked at him which made the man furrow his brows for a moment but then nod in understanding.
"Then, believe it or not, we have another member of the Envy family - but the hidden branch one, not the one Mason was a part of."
The young woman moved on yet again and presented the short androgynous person with long red hair and piercing blue eyes.
"They're Kopia Envy, shape-shifter extraordinaire. They joined our ranks with a similar reason as miss Nomannic, and that is love!"
She smiled while ignoring Kopia's annoyed glare.
"Though, I bet that their reason will resonate with you much more than Nomannic's."
"...?"
Her smile disappeared and the young woman became serious which caused Mika to furrow her brows in confusion.
"You see, the villainess is following something called the ultimate route. Funnily enough, or rather, the thing not funny at all, is that said route, is a bug-filled mess that wasn't supposed to activate, and completing it will lead to basically the world blowing itself up."
"!!!!!"
The young woman nodded and after seeing Mika's horrified face.
"But the villainess is hell-bent on completing it, and one of the steps that need to be completed for that is getting rid of all avatars of sin. All of them."
"NO!"
Mika gasped shocked to the bone by the new information.
"Yes. Kopia here wants to save their beloved avatar of lust from a terrible end at the hands of the villainess, and I expect that you also don't want your father to be in danger like that. Because that woman will stop at nothing!"
The young woman declared with a grim expression and approached the last person, but stopped half-step.
"...and this one..."
She frowned and rubbed her chin.
The last person was a girl around Mika's age, she had her short hair cut in a functional way so that they would fit under the helmet, and was wearing Sloth soldiers' armor.
"Monk 89-F...?!"
Mika gasped, taken aback by the unexpected reunion.
