Undead King

Greed, Part 1

Greed, Part 1

Aug 31, 2021

Huh? What killed me? There was some kind of explosion and now I'm dead. What about Hellen, she shouldn't break so easily right?

"You again?" I heared a voice that I hated more than anything in this world. "But this time you're completed huh? How did you manage to only send half of your soul last time?" He noticed? "Well I don't really care. Normally I would burn you now but you are quiet interessting. I have a little present for you." The distorted voice suddenly sounded normal. A gate appeared in front of me and a tall man with green hair and black eyes came out of it. He had to long horns on his forehead. 

"Your name is Shio, right? I'll give you one of my blessings."

"Why would you do that?" For some reason I was able to speak.

"Because you are one of the biggest sinners in this world." He smiled. "But you're impressive. You already have the blessing from two other gods. Well one of them is boring but blessing is blessing. Ah but don't worry my blessings are not like this. He laid his hand on my chest and gave me his blessing. It felt a bit different from when Sylviette gave me her blessing.

"I hope you like the Authority of Greed. And when you finally die for real let me burn you in the strongest Hellfire." Wait what?

"And what does this blessing do? I can't like it if I don't even know how to use it."

"Haha that's true. It increases your magic power depending on the difference in power with the enemy. If your enemy is weak it does nothing but if your enemy is something like a god it looks different." Wait isn't that the op skill I wanted? Well I already have the Authority of the Undead King but with this I'm even stronger. Now I can fight! "But before you're able to use it you have to learn how to use magic." Ahhh I forgot about that.

"Good that's all. No Hellfire this time. Be thankfull." 

"Y-Yeah thanks... but when does someone count as en-" The white string appeared and pulled me up. Zhifar looked up for a moment and then entered the gate and dippeared. When I opened my eyes I was laying on the floor.

"EHHH?! What's with this sword?! Why is this thing so heavy?" I saw a weird guy with red hair trying to pull up Hellen. Was this the guy who killed me? I stood up and walked over to him. 

"What are you trying to do with her?" I laid my hand on his shoulder and he jumped to the side. He looked scared.

"W-W-W-wa ehhhhhhhh?! Why? I killed you!" 

"Well I'm-" Wait maybe I shouldn't walk around and tell everyone that I'm the undead king.

"Yeah? You're...?"

"Ah I'm Shio."

"And?"

"What?"

"Are you stupid?! I'm not asking for you name!"

"Ah sorry."

"That's all?"

"Yes."

"Master could you please help me. This disgusting guy fondels me the whole time." Oh she's right I should help her.

"Hey let her go already! That's sexual harassment!" Wait she's a sword. Does that count?

The guy looked really confused. "That's a sword. Are perhaps some weirdo who treats his sword like his girlfriend or something?" Ahh this guy is annoying.

"I said let her go!" I punshed him in the face and he let Hellen go. I picked her up and looked at him.

"What do you think you're doing?!" He looked very angry. "I'm Alais D. Daimon the second son of Daren D. Daimon the king of Daimel!" 

"Who's that?" I talked to Hellen through our connection.

"I never heared of Daren D. Daimon but Daimel is a country on the Demon Continent. But if I remember corectely Daimel should be one of the smallest countrys in Demona." 

"Then why's he acting like this?"

"Well my memories are over 700 years old." 700 years huh? That's enough time for a country to grow.

Alais: "Hey don't ignore me! I'll fucking kill you!" He enveloped his body with red mana and charged to me. "DIE!" He laughed hysterical.

"Master dodge!" Instinctely I did what Hellen told me. Alais attack hit the ground and left a big crater.

Me: "Wha- If I get hit by this I'll definetly die!" 

Alais: "Hey! Don't dodge!" This guy's nuts. He stood up and attacked again. 

Hellen: "Master you should use magic too."

Me: "O-Ok! If I want to do the same thing he does I just have to envelope my body with mana right?"

Hellen: "Yes." I led the mana to outside of the armor and tried to envelope my body with it. "Master stop!" I stopped instant. "You'll destroy your core like this." My core? 

"Inferno!" Alais screamed something and suddenly a tornado of fire appeared. 

Me: "What's that?!"

Alais: "Die!" The tornado hit me and I flew about 20 meters and crashed against a tree. "That's the end!" Alais jumped and tried to kick me. Suddenly a strange manaflow pushed him away and a red light came from my hand. "I-Impossible! That's a blessing from the demon god!" 

"What happened?" I looked at my hand which I held protectively in front of my face. On my palm was a red magic circle. I felt how the mana inside of me became stronger. I can't describe the feeling but it felt good. I stood up and tried to use fire magic. The flame appeared inside of mybody again. But that didn't matter. I ran over to Alais and attacked him.

Alais dodged my attackes and opened a gate. He pulled a sword out of the gate and deflected my attacks. 

"Master you can't defeat him! He is a magic swordsman." I talked with Hellen while I struggled to deflect his attacks. 

"I don't think that I can just run away!" Suddenly Alais began to smile.

Alais: "Abyss Lance!" A big black lance appeared behind him and flew straight to my core. 

"Goddess Dormitory!" Hellen used a strange magic. The lance disappeared and Alais began to scream. He jumped back and looked at me. Suddenly I fell on the ground. My legs disappeared and I began to feel a strong pain but after a few seconds my body began to recreate itself.

Alais: "The divine magic hurts you? Are you the Undead King? But..." He looked at me with a confused expression on his face. "So it really was an angel." He made a big jump and disappeared.

"Matser are you ok? Forgive me but I couldn't think about anything else."

"Ah no it's ok. You saved me thanks." My legs finished regenerating and I stood up. "Let's look for a town."

"Yes master." But why was that guy here? And why did he attack me?

We walked for a about one hour, when we finally found a road. "Master?"

"What is it Hellen?"

"You have to hide your identity from the people."

"Don't worry, I know that. I followed the road for another hour and then we saw a town in the distance. "A town! But what's that smoke? Is there something burning?" I ran to the town and when we arrived it was completely destroyed. The few buildings that are still standing were on fire, everywhere were people crying and the ground 
was full of corpses. "Hey Hellen... what the hell happened here?"

"I can sense much mana in the east of the town. There are many undeads too." Undeads? I ran to the east and on my way there I saw many people crying in front of a corpse.

"Feyrith! Hold on I-I'll cast healing magic!" I saw a girl with log brown hair casting healing magic for an elf. 

"Lucy we nead you hear!" A man with short brown hair and a sword fought the undeads.

"B-but Feyrith..I won't let him die!"

"If this goes on Feyrith won't be the only one who dies!" A blonde man in a white armor with a big shiled shouted while defending against the undeads.

Lucy: "B-but..." What should I do? How can I help them? Ah right I can-

"Master don't even think about controling these undeads."

"But we could help them!"

"What do you think would be their reaction if they would see that you can control them?" She's right. 

"Then how about you do that Goddes Dormitory thing again?"

"That's impossible. I can't use magic for a while. Goddess Dormitory is a spell which blocks the mana flow within someone's body for a while. I'm no longer a pure angel so the spell affected me aswell."

A female elf waved her wand and turned the battlefield in a field of flowers. The undeads inside of it suddenly stopped moving and the two men killed them quickly. I ran over to them and helped killing the undeads. It took us a while but together with a few other adventurers we managed to kill them all.

"Thanks for the help." The guy with the brown her gave me his hand. "I'm Keith the-" He was interuppted as the girl from before began to scream.

"I-I can't heal him! My Healing magic is to weak." The other guy and the elf girl began to cry aswell. 

"H-Hey why are you guys... crying? That's... emberessing hahaha." The elf boy began to speak. 

"I'm soryy. I can't heal you." The girl with the brown hair laid her head on his body and cried. He patted her head and laughed.

"So I'll die huh? Then Lucy could you promise me something? Please..." His voice became silent and I wasn't able to hear him. I saw how Keith began to cry aswell.

"Master."

"What is it Hellen?"

"If I hadn't used Goddess Dormitory back then I would've beem able to heal him..."

"It's not your fauld, you did it to save me."

"Mhm." She sounded really sad. He's a stranger but she still wants to save him.

 I looked at the dying elf. There was a large wound across his torso. The wound was from a sword and was deep. He was bleeding very strong, it was an awfull sight. And he wasn't the only one, nearly everybody in this town was wounded or dead. What the hell happened here?
