The Master Necromancer - Chapter 12 - Vol 1
The Silver Guard Commander was a man in his forties, and he was the Outpost Commander of Entrance Ceredrim. His name was "Margard." At first, he thought that the old man was just spouting gibberish, but after he kept listening to the old man, he understood that the things he was saying were most likely true.
After years of being a commander of a strong army and manager of the outpost, he understood that the man in front of him was telling the truth.
As the old man told him, the werewolves were planning to enter from the border and attack some kind of human village to find vampires. At first, he did not expect something like that, but after he thought about it a little bit, it was only to be expected.
Because werewolves on the border of Ceredrim A-1 were heated in these times, he was hearing some kind of small battles happening between the "Blood Knights" and "Moon Wolf Hunters".
This means that they really will be trying to attack the different kinds of human villages to find vampires.
As a human leader, Margard, had to stop the werewolves from entering the border.
-
Frankor just smiled as he understood the commander took the bait. After that, he did not keep talking and just went on his way, leaving the commander with his thoughts about the lie.
When he was going to enter his carriage, he noticed a man in leather clothes was walking from the main-road towards Ceredrim City. The man had long black hair with different kinds of eyes.
As the man was going to pass him, he talked.
"Where are you going, traveler?"
-
Skraal heard about what the old man and the Silver Armored Guard were talking about. As he got close to them, he noticed the Silver Armored Guard was a commander.
He listened for a few moments without raising an eyebrow, then began walking between them.
As he was going to pass the old man, the old man spoke to him with a kind tone.
"Where are you going, traveler?"
Skraal turned his head to the old man and just answered.
"I am going towards Ceredrim City."
The old man nodded and then spoke.
"Be careful about the werewolves when you are going to pass the border. I heard they are planning to enter to attack the villages of humans to find the vampires near the Grape Village."
As Skraal listened and heard about the vampires near the Grape Village, he did not show any emotion on his face and just nodded.
After he nodded, he just kept walking.
The old man just entered his carriage and started to go on his way too.
After a little bit of time passed, Skraal smiled and whispered.
"The old man was a Chaotic-Unknown. He must be planning something in this area."
As Skraal whispered, he shook his head.
As he knows, there are many chaotic types, but the most dangerous ones are "chaotic-unknown," which is called "unknown" because their purposes and other things are unknown to others. One thing is certain:
if there is a Chaotic-Unknown in a region or a place, the best thing to do is simply leave that region.
Because most likely, bloody things will happen where the Chaotic-Unknown is, and most of the time, the Chaotic-Unknown will be sipping his wine when these things occur.
After Skraal got far away from the outpost, he summoned the Undead Wolf and entered the forest.
He will not be going to enter the city of Ceredrim anymore. He could use the Undead Wolf as the means to reach Anderwhal. If it was before, he would go to the city.
But after he learned that there was a Chaotic-Unknown person where he was, everything about his stay on the borders of Ceredrim just made no sense.
-
Skraal was a little bit tired. He was lying on the grass and three undead wolves were protecting him against any kind of danger.
He did not find any monster or creature to hunt for the points.
As he was thinking, he heard battle sounds. He just smiled and nodded.
"I love battles; there are always corpses and beings to kill."
Skraal was a Chaotic Human and a Skeleton Mage at the same time. It is only normal that he is not going to care about humans or any race other than himself.
For him, the battle is a good thing, but he is still not going to stay in a place where a "Chaotic Unknown" controls and manipulates.
-
As Skraal gets close to the flatland, he sees the battle. Five ogres are fighting against the fifteen human-hunters. The battle is in its climax.
The Ogres are strong races like goblins, but compared to the smallest ones, they have a height of 2 meters and a weight of 120 to 200 kg. They use hammers and sturdy wood clubs to fight.
Of course, they only have average intelligence compared to goblins and are still not as strong as humans. Of course, this was only because of their minds.
Humans dealt with them in their own way.
Skraal first waited for about one to two minutes, then started using his Bone-Arrows to hunt down the humans and ogres at the same time.
Because the battle between the two groups was intense, all of the humans and ogres were killed easily with bone-arrows sticking out of their heads.
In this battle, Skraal managed to kill 10 humans and 3 ogres. It was an easy thing for him to do.
After the battle was over, Skraal just looked around and noticed that there were not many living humans or ogres.
After that, he walked towards human corpses and took their copper coins.
After that, he used the Corpse Harvester spell on every corpse on the battlefield.
This time, he earned 13 Bone-Pearls. These pearls are bigger than the Goblin pearls. Skraal just ate three Bone-Pearls which he earned from the Ogres.
He noticed a slight difference in his body and physical power, as he thought eating the bone-pearls of strong creatures would make him more powerful.
This was not the only thing he earned today.
