After Leomord successfully drove the invader out from the kingdom's outer district, he started utilizing a patrol every a hour even himself, do patrol over the district.
While patrolling he decided to rest for a while even thought he doesn't feel fatigue on his current body.
Idling for a bit he begun reminscing the past after he saw a familiar tavern in the district.
Before he died the kingdom was starting to collapse. The rumors begun to spread all over the kingdom that the Queen practices black magic after the King bed another woman.
The rumors indicate that the Queen started to kidnap pure maiden and make them a living sacrifice by snatching their age and beauty to make them hers.

But a sudden day when he visit the girl he loves, the girl was gone.
He instanlty investigate all things that happens in the kingdom and he discover one thing, a Royal Knight from the castle forfeit his title and left the knighthood.
He search that man and manage to find him in just a day.
After interrogate that man he soon discover that the rumors were true.

Leomord single-handedly defeat the knights and then he went inside the crypt.
He saw horrible things that he couldn't imagine.
Lot of girls filed in every corner of the room while some shaman chanting spell over crypted circle.
Leomord took the Queen's attention after he entering the room but the Queen didn't hesitate to command Leomord that he shouldn't interfere with the ritual.
He can't accept the reality of the things on what he saw this time.
In the middle of the room he manage to glimpse a familiar face of a lady who's now being sacrificed.
"Lily!!"
"Leomord I said don't interfere the ritual."
His body automatically cease not by magic but loyalty he gave for the Queen.
On that moment he choose loyalty over love.
He saw dreadful things on the woman he loved.
After the ritual momentarily stops Leomord rushed to get Lily but it is too late.
The body of Lily started to decay. He pick up the body and put on his arms.
But the decaying part is not the worst part, while on his arm the body instantly became a dust.
He made a loud mournful cry.
He can't imagine why the Queen who gave his loyalty do this to the one he loves.
He won't a serve a Queen like this.
It is not wise decision he made but he took his own life and stabs his own heart using his sword the Oathkeeper.
Leomord fall in the ground drowned by his own blood.
After reminiscing a grieving memory he didn't realize a tears fall from his eyes.
Even an undead still hold emotion, as he said to his mind.
When he tries to wipe the tears, a light shone upon him.
The strange blue light want to guide Leomord and follow its track.
The blue light leaves a temporary line who tries to follow.
Leomord was hesistant to follow the strange blue light but Barbiel move his head indicating his master, Leomord that he have to follow the light.
With Barbiel's suggestions Leomord follows the light.

The strange light run towards on his front and trying to get his attention.
"What do you want?"
The strange light moving in the air likely telling Leomord to go inside on that portal.
"We have to go back, Barbiel."
When Leomord tries to move, the light move towards his face and likely begging him to go on that portal.

A moment that light appeared something coming out from the portal.
A minted mist blew on the ground, a brown stallion covered a helm with a horn, a man riding on the horse has long jet black hair. The man worn a paled blue armor cover by minted mist.
"Who are you?"
The humanoid robot instantly asked on the man who came from the portal.
"Are you Dr. Baker's accomplice?"
The man made a puzzled face stating an unknown name from him.
"If you are, I should have to eliminate you."
The robot charged towards the man but the man easily struck it down. Just the stomp of his horse the robot easily destroyed.
The man unride his horse and look on the destroyed robot.
He took out the body of the robot who preventing his horse to move.

"I am me... I mean I am Angela mister."
Leomord on that moment felt a familiar feeling, it was like the one he want to feel.
It was like a forgotten fragrant, the scent of a petrichor the nostalgic smell from the past.
A sorrowful love was on the past but the fate made to met again.
"Is that you..Lily?"
The cute little girl tilt and made puzzled face for naming her from another person.
"No, I am Angela mister Dr. Baker is my creator."
"But I feel you are Lily."
Leomord touch Angela's arm and felt the coldness of a metal.
"FG-DD1A has eliminated, another unit has on the target sight."
Leomord and Angela turned around and saw a humanoid robot appeared and surrounded them.
"Surrender that thing human for we have retrieve that thing or else,"
A robot decisively point Angela and warn Leomord.
"Or else what?"
"You have to die."

"Don't let them escape."
All humanoid robot chase Leomord and Angela.
But they didn't knew it was Leomord plan to chase them.
They bite the bait, as he said to his mind.
As the robot chases them; Leomord change the direction of his horse and confront them.
A thunderous lightning rose from Barbiels feet and made huge fissure that destroyed all the robots.
It was like two birds in one stone but it was like a stone toss from a siege attack of a catapult that destroyed a troops.
All humanoid robots destroyed instanly.
"No one dares to touch Lily again."
