Chapter 208: Lich God of Death Nec'zer

Phantasia: The Princess Knight

The beast king or more accurately, Lich God of Death Nec'zer let out a loud laugh. "So what if you know it's me. It's not like we can kill each other! Because if you could kill me you would have a long time ago. Although you were able to seal ninety percent of my powers, you will not be able to kill me since you do not have the means to. But that little girl… Who is she!?"

The Lich God of Death Nec'zer, when facing Alicia had his whole body instinctively shivering in fear. He felt something in that girl would be able to scatter his soul completely never allowing him to resurrect again.

"You only need to know that she is my daughter. And if you even think about harming her I will find a way to scatter your soul myself." King Agustus or Naito Shigeru's eyes turned cold and a thick bloodlust came from his body.

"Humph! I am more afraid of that little girl compared to you. If I had known such a being was in your capital I would have made my plans more discreet." The Lich God of Death Nec'zer, frowned, he hated the fact that he was outdone by a brat but the feeling he got from her made it so he couldn't resist. As soon as he laid eyes on her it was as if he was frozen. He was helpless while the little girl beat him black and blue!

"I do have to say your face speaks well for itself. But now that you have lost, you know what will happen right?" King Augustus waved his hand and a small black box appeared.

"Dimensional Abyss!" The Lich God of Death Nec'zer looked at the black box with fear. It was exactly like the box he was sealed in before! If not for the seal weakening over the years and the Beastmen King undoing the last of the seal, he would have been stuck in the abyss for who knows how long!

" I may not be able to use my true powers and am stuck at the level of a human due to it, but that does not mean I can not seal you away again. " King Augustus had known the entire time the cause of the demonic plagues. But because he could not use his true power anymore and was now only at the level of a four star magician, making him quite weak when compared to other races, he could only fight like a human or else he would have handled the situation from the start.

"Are you sure you want to? If you do, you risk your entire body and soul being destroyed. Last time you did it because you were desperate to stop me and back then you had nothing holding you back. If you do it now you might end up having to use your own life force to activate it!" The Lich God of Death Nec'zer suddenly said causing King Augustus to stop his actions.

King Augustus, frowned. What was said as true. Last time to activate the Dimensional Abyss, he had to use every last bit of his energy damaging all the Magi Points on his body but four and this was even with the Celestial body he inherited. Since then he took on the form of a human and built up Alastine. He was nothing more than an above average human now!

"Then let's do this, binding contract for you to not get involved with Alastine it's lands or its allies, and I will turn a blind eye to what you do in other lands." Since he could not kill the Lich God of Death Nec'zer nor seal him, he could only do it this way. "And Also, you have to return the Beastman King, his body."

"Fair enough. I rather stay far away from that little girl. The farther the better! As for that item... Watch over it well..." The Lich God of Death Nec'zer agreed to the terms only because he was afraid Alicia would come back at any time. Until the day the could unseal his powers, he had no chance of winning against her.

The two then set up a binding contract. When it was done the Lich God of Death Nec'zer soul sprouted out of the Beast King's body and flew out the window and off into the distance. Before he left he did send one telepathic message to King Augustus. The Elven King had long since been dead, killed by the old monster Vulre and had made a deal with Vulre in order to get him to attack King Augustus.

King Augustus let out a sigh and changed his form back to that of what Alicia called father. He could only give a slight prayer for those who were bound to end up under his control. But the Lich God of Death Nec'zer went was where the land of the Undead was located. King Augustus had a feeling of foreboding that sometime in the future he will regret releasing the Lich God of Death Nec'zer.

Black Stone Imperial Palace, Throne Room.

"Hello!" Standing in front of the Emperor and Empress of the Empire, Alicia waved and smiled as Blake and her appeared in front of them.

"Who? Who are you?" Emperor Caspian yelled out.

"Who I am doesn't matter. I came here to request that the Empire surrenders to Alastine under the condition of complete annexation of its lands." Alicia stated bluntly with a wide smile on her face. She was actually in a good mood now that King Augustus was alive and healthy. She couldn't even contain her smile now that a huge amount of stress had been lifted from her shoulders.

"Surrender!? Prosperous! Do you think the Empire is so weak that it needs to surrender to some backwater kingdom!?" The Elven Empress Tehlarissa yelled out.

"Really? I just took control of Mytheth Lenora. So you do not even have the elven kingdom to back you up, so how are you going to fight Alastine when I can completely wipe your entire country off the map of Phantasia for good?" Alicia asked, crossing her arms across her chest and tilting her head, making a face as if she was talking to an idiot.

Chapter 209: Battle In The Empire

Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Empress Tehlarissa's face turned red with anger, she raised her hand and waved it in the air causing a streak of lighting to strike towards Alicia. Alicia felt the Magicules in the air and suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly grabbed Blake's hand and dashed backwards while at the same time casting a barrier around the both of them. the area in front of them suddenly exploded causing a wide crater to appear on the floor.

"Oh? It didn't hit." Empress Tehlarissa said with a smile on her face. "Did you think that I was weak? Hahaha! You see Vulre had done many experiments on me when I was young, I being the lowliest and weakest of the elves. In all of the Elven kingdom, you would not find anyone as weak as I! I was what was called a no star magician. But now look! I have almost two hundred Magi Points! Do you think we need help from Mytheth Lenora? Do you think just because you made a bunch of ants surrender you could do the same here?

" Do you not find it strange that I, an elf Princess who was stronger than any of the other elves, married a man from another country when I am this powerful? Would they not try to keep me locked away and use me to expand the territory of the elves. I will say that they did! But I would not comply. " Empress Tehlarissa let out a laugh and then began casting a barrage of bolts of lightning at Alicia and Blake.

"You are not the only one to be underestimated!" Alicia yelled out, she waved her hand and hundreds of fireballs appeared before her before shooting towards Empress Tehlarissa and at her feet, the ground began to shake and rise sending her off balance.

All these actions happened so fast that Empress Tehlarissa had no time to dodge and could only place a shield on herself. The area around Empress Tehlarissa and Emperor Caspian was completely destroyed after the dust had settled.

Alicia clicked her tongue seeing how strong Empress Tehlarissa's barrier was. "Blake get out of here quick! I won't be able to fight her like this, I will need to go all out." Blake nodded and flashed out of the hall. He knew at this time he was not going to be able to help. But he did not go far, he concealed himself and watched from the sidelines. He figured this would be good training for Alicia who did not go up against many magic users and if somewhere were to happen he could easily make it to Alicia to save her.

Although Alicia had very strong magic, she still had little experience when fighting other strong magic users. Empress Tehlarissa was not only strong, but her use of magic was also very good, her control over her magic was ten times better than Alicia's. She was able to direct most of her barriers strength into a single point as Alicia's fireballs collided wit hit, this was also the same for her lightning attacks it was almost as if it was a piercing move ever time it hit Alicia's barrier making a small crack in it.

Alicia took out her sword intending to try close combat but Empress Tehlarissa's bombardment only intensified, causing Alicia to jump back out of the way. She waved her hand and sent another barrage of fireballs at Empress Tehlarissa while running up behind them. Sword in hand she wrapped a barrier around her hand and the hilt of her sword so she could also use her sword to cut down some of Empress Tehlarissa's lightning bolt attacks without being shocked.

Sparks and flames flew through the air causing Emperor Caspins prized Imperial Palace the symbol of the empire began to crumble under the fierce battle between Empress Tehlarissa and Alicia.

"Haha! Who would have thought that a backwater kingdom would have such a talent? At least give me your name, before I start to get serious!" Empress Tehlarissa laughed and yelled. She had never thought she would meet such an opponent such as this in her lifetime.

"Alicia Von Alastine, Third Princess of the Alastine Kingdom. The one who will annex the Empire and bring it under Alastine rule!" Alicia answered while waving her sword to strike down another lightning bolt.

Alicia was finding this fight very fun. Although she could easily lose her life, she was finding new ways to incorporate her magic into her swordplay allowing for easier and more decisive attacks. For her she found this to be good training. When this thought came to mind, Alicia's face went black. 'Why am I thinking like that stupid father of mine!'

Grumbling to herself, Alicia waved her hand causing thousands of meteors to appear in the sky falling down towards Empress Tehlarissa. Empress Tehlarissa's brow furrowed. It was the first time since the start of the fight that she felt that the little girl was more of a threat than she had let on.

Not wanting to be outdone, Empress Tehlarissa waved her hand and also sent a barrage of meteors down from the sky. Loud booming sounds rang out across the empire as the Imperial Palace was completely leveled to the ground. Causing Emperor Caspian to shed tears. He had spent decades working on the Palace adding a little bit here and there every year. Now all of it was gone, destroyed all because of this little girl!

"Tehlarissa, kill that little bitch! She destroyed my Palace!" Emperor Caspian roared out only to get a smile and a slight nod from Empress Tehlarissa. She was too busy to answer him since she was having a hard time keeping up with Alicia's attacks now.

Alicia's decided it was time to end this, her body disappeared from Empress Tehlarissa's view causing her to stop her actions and look around. It was only when she felt a cold shiver run down her spine that she finally realized that Alicia had teleported behind her. But it was too late, Alicia's sword stabbed through her back piercing her heart.

Alicia withdrew her sword and said: "It's funny. The old monster died in the same manner. I guess elves have no defense when people appear behind them." Her sword swung one more time, causing Empress Tehlarissa head to fall...
