No Longer Human

"Ahahaha…! You're slowing down, you damn old man!" Laughed the old necromancer, as his staff moved forward, conjuring a storm of spiraling phantasmal flames, and impacting Ellergest directly.

BOOOOMMM!!!

"Unnggh..! T-This fire!"

Ellergest had no choice but to step back, losing his balance and then falling into the ground, rolling over the grass. However, he quickly got up, summoning his dragon and his turtle at each of his sides, some blood was coming out of his arms as he had over exceeded his limits when he clashed against his old friend.

"I thought you were stronger, what's wrong?" The old necromancer asked, as he noticed his hands began to fall apart more and more, his skin and his muscles falling apart, leaving only bones.

"Y-Your arms…" Ellergest muttered. "What… what is happening to you?" Ellergest asked, as he suddenly spit a mouthful of blood, his spiritual and holy power slowly beginning to channel into his chest.
