Chapter 7: Huh?
The sun is directly overhead. Tenma, who had been running for over an hour, felt thirsty and stopped in his tracks.
‘ HAAA—. HAAA—. HAAA—. I think I ran nearly 20km, but am I only halfway? A third? Was thinking I was close, just a misunderstanding?’
He regulated his breathing,
“Water Creation: Create Water”
Tenma filled the cup he made with cold water and moistened his throat.
‘Did I misjudge the distance? Well, I’m definitely getting closer.‘
“Now then, Appraisal.”

‘Huh. Corpse?’
He carefully approached the closest location where the Corpse appeared.
Light could be seen from within the grass. Once more, he chanted “Appraisal”, and it returned a Decayed Human Race Corpse. He stood before the corpse, he observed its appearance.
The corpse was lying facing toward what seemed to be a castle wall. There were three parallel gouged wounds on its back. These must have been the fatal injuries without a doubt. Tenma puts his hands together in prayer for the corpse and chants Storage. He stored everything except the bones.
