Chapter 1091: Against A Necromancer
Chapter 1091: Against A Necromancer
-----
The surprise of today wasn't just discovering that our major foe was a Necromancer, a Draconic general Necromancer, which opened the chance that Fafnir had some sort of divine power capable of either bestowing Talents, Skills, or something similar to them, but that most of the Undead were all made from the remains and souls of the elves they had mercilessly hunted and killed.
It made me mad, but it didn't shake me as much as other people, the elven knights were furious, completely shocked by what they were seeing, and how far these lizardmen were willing to go to break their minds.
"GRAAAHHH...!"
"K-Kill... Kill... meeeee...!"
"Death... DEATH!"
The undead came in many forms, their bones formed giant skeletons, their souls were forcefully fused into agonizing, wailing specters of enormous size, and their rotten bodies were stitched together into zombie golems.
Most of them weren't weak either, the weakest was B+ Rank, while the strongest Undead, the giant Bone Titans or Zombie Chimera Giants, were S- Rank. Aside from their rotten bodies, they were reinforced with powerful Demonic Curses and also their very souls imbued with a lot of mana and spirit energy.
So they weren't exactly weak either...
However, the most surprising part wasn't all of that, but what was happening to someone, I knew she would react in a bad manner, and I tried to calm her down...
"How... dare he...!"
"Elizabeth, calm down..."
Elizabeth's Aura of Holiness overflowed, growing larger and stronger, she couldn't contain her powers anymore, her righteous wrath knew no bounds.
RUMBLE!
Her Aura of Holy Light surged, as her eyes seemed to glow filled with pure and utter wrath. The skies trembled, fusing with her powerful Holy Domain, and transforming, becoming gigantic holy eyes glancing the world from above, dozens of beams of light fell over the undead.
I suppose it cannot be helped, this is the true power of a Saintess... and also her wrath.
"I'm sorry... but I can't."
Elizabeth muttered as her attacks reached the Undead, the gigantic beams of light completely pulverized every undead within range, disintegrating them all into ashes.
"But Elizabeth, calm down!" Eric said. "We can find a way together and-"
"I see, I understand how this works," I nodded as I glanced in silence.
Everyone suddenly looked at me in surprise.
"You... understand how that cloud works?" Alberta wondered.
"Yeah, it is a dimensional storage of Undead," I explained. "It keeps them stored within a pocket realm of nether and phantasmal energy. If we destroy it using Elizabeth's powers, all million of undead will come rushing out, and even our army might be instantly overwhelmed by the sheer numbers."
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked, it was certainly a good way to surprise us.
"I'm sure that the Necromancer want us to destroy that cloud, it is like a tickling time bomb, or a land mine" I laughed.
"T-Then what do we do?!" asked Erika.
"Eat it," I smiled back at my friends. "Cover for me, my army will also help. I'll enter that phantasmal cloud and devour it completely. Once it becomes mine, we can easily cleanse all undead in one fell swoop."
"But that's... too risky! You don't know the variables, Blake!" Eric said.
"I've killed Archdemons, Eric, do you think that matters anymore?" I asked. "When we faced Bestellen together... What did you feel about me?"
"..." he remained in silence. "That you could always find a way... I trusted you, and we won at the end."
"So? Will you trust me again, everyone?" I looked at my friends.
It didn't take them too long to nod.
"Then let's do it."
