Overview[]
- Vandal has become the hero of the Ghoul Grotto after using his vast magical power and death magic to defeat the Kobolt King. He remains with the ghouls, learning non-attribute magic from Zadilis, and spending some peaceful time with his allies while helping with such issues as the mage’s old age and declining birth rates in the community. However, there is a growing threat from an orc army led by the noble Orc Bugogan, who is intent on wiping out the ghouls―or worse!
Summary[]
Hiroto Amamiya died during a school trip and was reborn into a second life at the behest of Reincarnation God Rodocolte. Due to a mistake by the god, however, he was born into nothing but suffering and eventual death. When he returned to Rodocolte, the god was concerned by the desire for vengeance he saw in the youth, and send him to be reborn in a third world, Ramda, without any further powers. There Hiroto started his third life as the dhampir Vandal.
while suffering under curses from Rodocolte, Vandal still found a measure of happiness living with his mother Dalshia. When his mom failed to return home one day, Vandal used the death attribute magic that he acquired in his second life to create some undead and go looking for her. Vandal's search for Dalshia brought him to the town of Evbejia, but he was already too late. His mom had already been tortured and killed. Vandal found her as a ghost, about to vanish completely. He placed her spirit into a remaining fragment of her bone and promised to one day obtain a new body for her. He also swore vengeance on high priest Goldan and the others who killed his mom.
After meeting new allies, enhancing his undead, and taking his revenge on Evbejia, Vandal and his party took to the road. They eventually encountered the ghoul elder Zadilis and saved her from an attack by adventurers. They entered a demon barren in order to get Zadilis home and found themselves unexpectedly welcome in the ghouls' grotto, and then made a big contribution by helping to defeat the Kobold King Gyahn, who attacked with designs on expanding his own kingdom.
