Description
Rentt Faina, undead adventurer, reaches the next stage of Existential Evolution and becomes a lesser vampire! Now short on funds, Rentt sets off to retrieve items necessary to craft equipment for his disciple, Alize. He heads to the New Moon Dungeon with his faithful mouse familiar, Edel, in tow.
Rentt cuts a path through lizardmen and forest wolves, and even defeats the terra drake in the boss chamber. But as he presses on, he stumbles upon a legendary monster—an earth dragon!
Meanwhile, a Gold-class vampire hunter and a saint show up at the Stheno Company. They're investigating the rumour of a certain adventurer being a vampire...
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer (Light Novel): Volume 4 by Yu Okano, illustrated by Jaian Jaian and translated by Shirley Yeung, offers thrilling adventures as Rentt navigates the challenges that come with his undead existence.
