Chapter 79: The Next Level

(We thought that the Church will be slow to move, but the answer from the guards have come more quickly. That's the horn of the South Gate, that's the order that the slums are allowed free pass toward the inner city. They can escape from you, and except crushing the guards at the gate, we have no choice.)

Yes, we have a choice, that means everyone not brain-dead will rush toward the gate and the horn, so what will happen when are the first to arrive?

(You want to form a blockade in front of the gate, preventing the flow of humans? You can still face the opposition of the guards, but if you are still far enough from them to not be targeted by their crossbows, you will be fine.)

I don't care at all about the crossbows, I have [Nightfall]. Except two that will continue their massacre toward the North, gather the two closest skeleton warriors, I will need at least 3 of them to hold the passage. Now we need to quickly get there. And while we are running, I can still see the sword of number one moving, slashing, reaping the lives of the slow insects nearby. As for those that were filled with hope but are not very fast, only death will await you.

By the time we arrived, I can see number two standing in the middle of the main street. In front of him, a crowd, terrified at the sight of the bloodied sword. Not a single clothing isn't dirty, soaked with the red liquid that grants life. Each of his footsteps is just a mark made with blood. After we quickly kill our way to reach him, I can see from afar, the last skeleton warrior. The crowd is so paralyzed that he has no problem joining us before everything starts.

In front of me, my prey, my reward, my hope for survival. In my back, I have a troop of guards coming that way, and some of them are even loading their crossbows. I have not a single hope of escaping this city if I kill just one of them. That is why I just remove them from this battle. I cast the largest wall of darkness that I can. It is so big, that even the guards on the ramparts above the gate can't see us. But those that are a little farther away have their sight blocked by the different buildings. They can partially see us, but to have a clear shot, that's impossible.

The threat of crossbows removed, I only have to hold this point and do my best.

They have done it again. That means, more and more humans will come. Quite frankly, it allows my skeleton warriors to not lose time and directly finds their next victim. I have to thank you actually, for that horn. I would have never managed to regroup at least hundreds of citizens without it. But now that the lamb has been brought to the slaughterhouse, the butcher needs to do his job. Only number one will stay here, while number two and number four are encircling the crowd. My idea is to make them go to the back of the crowd, start a massacre and then the remaining survivors will try to overthrow me and number one and reach the gate.

Keep going, you are doing a great job, your master is very pleased with you.

-Thank you, master.

So that means I have lost number four. Shortly after, I lost the connection with number five and two. I only had number three and one. But all those efforts were not wasted. Right before I lose number three, I see that my [Raise Undead] has finally reached level 5. So this foolish action was not that foolish in the end.

-Master, I think I will be gone soon.

Why are you saying this number one? What happened?

-There is a lot of men in shiny armors and some are singing something about an Aria. I have seen them kill number two, and I don't think I will survive after they finish their song.

Just go away, you have finished the task that I wanted, you can still live. Just go to the East, follow the road, and go to Ronta, I will wait for you there.

-Thank you, master, you are a goo

Don't worry number one, you will be resurrected in no time. And the world will see your strength.
