chapter 14

After picking up a quest from the guild I head off to the location, about thirty miles away. This time I want to take my time so I stay in this form and just walk. On my journey I find some really nice places that would be amazing placing to put houses. Like a cliff on the side of a mountain that when you're up on it you and see for as far as the eye can, well at least until the other mountains about sixty or so miles away if I had to guess.

There was also a cave I found that reeked of death and blood. Being the curious creature I am, I head down and after about five minutes of walking I hear some rattling sound and the sound of a gurgling groans. I soon see the culprits of the noises, it was undead walking around with some dead adventurers im guessing that had their throats bit from the zombies that are currently still eating them.

"Well this is interesting. Too bad all of these undead are weak to me. Who know, maybe this is some kind of dungeon and theirs a boss somewhere."

I then just make some compresed ash needles and send them all through the zombies head and the skeletons spine to have the heads as proof later to get rewards. I also store the dead adventurers to bring them back to the city to maybe be revived with their revive spell or something.

After exploring the entire cave system I finally come across a heavy looking door that has a sign that says "KEEP OUT! DANGER!" on it.

"With all of the undead basically guarding this place, there is no way this isn't some necromancers hideout." I say while kicking the door off its hindges and it flys across the room and lands on some guy in a bed trapping him under it.

"Wow! You're seriously really unlucky. Well let me help you out real quick. Oh by the way, are you a necromancer?" I say to the dude who was almost knocked unconscious as soon as he woke up from me kicking the door.

"wh-who the hell are you! Wait if you're here you killed all of the undead to reach here. Bastard I was going to take over the world with that army!" The dude yells while he jumps up and tries to stab me, which I didn't even bother to dodge and his dagger bounced off me.

"So you are the necromancer who summoned those weaklings I took out. well that makes it easier." I say and stab his heart. "And thanks for all the stuff you have here too. OH!! Why does someone as weak as you have an ENTIRE CHEST FILLED WITH GOLD AND PLATINUM?!?! I mean seriously, all this and you only had and 'army' of like three hundred undead, come on, and who did you rob to get this?"

I then immediately place the entire chest and search the rest of the room, only finding a weird looking book with the print of "Necromancy 101" and some food. I search the guy and find a ring that has the same feel to it that the ball of death essence thing that the bald old necromancer had so I take it. I then leave the caves and go to do the job I took.

The next day I arrived at the location that the quest is for and what I see almost makes me sick even though thats impossible in this form. I see a small caravan that seems to have been here for a few days and there is probably about a hundred women age ranging from probably ten to fourty, chained up in a line and the first twenty are currently being forced down as men have their way with them.

Me being the scum hating person I am moved to the side and line up a twenty person line of heads in my sniper cross-hairs, and..... BAAAAAANG, and just like that twenty less scum is this world. "It might seem bad to some people but I think that they'd prefer to remember someone's head exploding compared to what was happening to them" I murmur to my self and I walk out of my cover letting the remaining ten terrified scum see me and they pissed themselves dropping to the ground from fear.

I quickly finished them off and break the chains binding everyone as they thank me in tears. I tell everyone that I'm an adventurer that goes by Rex and also ask where they are from and if they knew where they were being taking.

"W- We are all from E-rantel and I overheard one of them saying they were headed to the slain theocracy" A smaller girl probably about twelve, nervously come up and gets my attention. I'm currently sitting down to not make some of them scared by my height as about half of the group it children, at least until they are positive I mean no harm, and after I made some cooked giant lizards I killed a few days ago.

After eating and making sure they were all good to go I slice the top halves off of the metal prisoner wagons that the women were put into by the group of slavers. Some still had to ride in them but a good portion took to the normal wagons with me in the very front with the reins to the wagon. Traveling about halfway to back to the city we stop and make camp and I go to hunt something to eat. as I get back I see a bandit group trying to sneak up on the camp on my sensors and just silently take them out with the ash needles and loot any money and weapons they had before returning to cook.

The next day we arive back at E-rantel and I report the incident to the guild. Since the original quest was to try and figure out the disappearances is the area. The reports say both women children and men are disappearing but seeing only two of the three groups I guess the men were killed or taken separately.

After reporting about that I ask if they give reward like money to people who take out necromancers and hundreds of undead. I was expecting not to or maybe even just a rank promotion but NO they did both! I got promoted from mithril to Adamantite and a huge monetary reward for saving the people and also for returning he bodies of the fallen adventurers who sadly have been dead for too long they doubted they would be able to revive them.

The women I saved once again thanked me before they left to go find their families or headed home with their daughters, there was a few I had to pay for inn for as their houses got "accidentally" burned down during their capture.

After a bit I once again leave the guild hall and head out to do some monster hunter for some fun.

"Yes sebas, what is it?"

"Lord Ainz there is a powerful person I think you might be interested in meeting"

"Go on"

"After some research, his name Is Rex and he is a nice foot tall giant wearing an almost dark gold colored armor. He carries some huge device on his back, but the main reason for this report is it seems he has some for of spacial manipulation ability or something. he lifted a man that was beating a child before dropping him through a tear in the air and after a few moments the guy went through a different but same type of portal to leave. Right after he left the same man the was beating the child came plummeting from the sky dying."

"WHA... *COUGH* .....That is indeed a powerful ability that could be useful. Thank you Sebas for letting me know about this. Though I already knew him but not that ability. Hmm, I never heard of this ability or the weird ash magic he used a while back. Wait, wasn't the huge weapon a sniper? though it looked a bit different, it was similar but did he invent it here or is he like me, trapped here? I should probably not jump to that question when we meet i dont know what his reaction would be." I'm kind of excited that I actually might not be the only one stuck here. 'Though that was already a possibility with the Yggdrasil items and magic going around.'
