Chapter 1298 Side Story: Necronomicon I

Creepysoo knew that he could not forcefully increase his overall ability within a month. What he needs is a proper way to channel his immense power as the Prince of the Undead. He has been using the Staff of Undeath for a long time, but he needs something stronger that could sustain the undead.

He was sweeping the halls of the mansion owned by Baron Samedi when he overheard some of the undead talking about the Necronomicon. A special book that could conjure up undead without even having the body of a fallen being. It is the Book of Undead Summoning that defies the established rules of undead summoning.

Creepysoo had to get that item no matter what, but he needs to have the permission of at least three Gods of Death in order to gain a chance to earn a lesser copy. The Necronomicon that Creepysoo wanted is something like a copy as the real one is in the ownership of the God of Death Abaddon.

"Give you permission to handle a copy of the Necronomicon? Do you know what you are asking for Child?" Baron Samedi asked Creepysoo.

"I want to become stronger, and a Necromancer has very limited resources when it is a fresh battle. I am not always in an area where lots of corpses are present. The Necronomicon gives me an even playing field when it comes to situations like that." Creepysoo argued as he knows his deficiencies in combat.

Creepysoo would often rely on his undead knights that vowed loyalty to him and the addition of curses and hexes but that is not enough. His undead knights can only handle so little and if they die then he will be left alone. A necromancer is a powerhouse that controls legions of undead at their whim, but an undefeatable necromancer uses every undead at their very best ability.

"Access to the Necronomicon is not forbidden especially for one such as yourself but you need the approval of at least three gods of death. Of course, if you could get the approval of the main boss then you will not need approval of us lesser gods of death." Baron Samedi explained.

"Will you give me the approval of an esteemed persons such as yourself then?" Creepysoo stated as he looked at Baron Samedi with an expression that should be cute but an undead is not cute in any sense.

"This is regarding the Book of Undeath which is why I cannot afford to get soft on you even though you are my favorite." Baron Samedi stated.

"I am like the only person that you can directly contact from the mortal realm. I am pretty sure I am the only favorite because of that." Creepysoo stated.

"Do not be so sure as we have contractors in the mortal realm that could act in our behalf." Baron Samedi stated which shocked Creepysoo as he thought the gods of death do not concern themselves that much with the problems of the living.

"I did not know that but what do I need to do to get approval from you?" Creepysoo asked.

"A trial should be on session, but I have already been giving you trials ever since you landed on my care. You get my approval once you finish sweeping the halls." Baron Samedi stated as he left the area to go do his duties.

Creepysoo did not expect that he would get the approval by sweeping the halls, but he remembered the spine chilling tasks he did before. If the things he previously did like play with a Cerberus or punish the evil souls were not trials, then he might have ignored the Baron Samedi already. He finished sweeping th halls of the gigantic mansion and got the approval of Baron Samedi.

[You have been given the approval of Baron Samedi for the use of the Necronomicon.]

[You need at least two more to unlock the Inferior Copy of the Necronomicon.]

"You have my approval, child. Where will you get two more?" Baron Samedi asked.

"Can Maman Brigitte give me another approval?" Creepysoo asked.

"Unfortunately for you, you need to get the approval of different rulers of the underworld. You already have mine so you can no longer get the approval of another god of death residing in this realm." Baron Samedi stated.

"If that is the case then I need to go to Mitnal to meet with the God of Death Ah Puch." Creepysoo stated as he knows that the God of Death Ah Puch has a favor that needs to be repaid.

"Good luck with that. Getting there would be a trial in of itself." Baron Samedi stated as he told Creepysoo to be careful as he might get lost in another death realm.

As Prince of the Undead, Creepysoo could travel to underworlds that deal with any undead. This is one of the blessings that the undead royal family could use as they have a covenant with the God of Death Abaddon. The Undead King Arthur usually goes to the underworld to train as nothing in the mortal realm could give him much of a fight and he could resurrect in the underworld.

Creepysoo gulped as he drew the magic circle portal that will send him to Mitnal. Mitnal is a death realm found on the ninth level of the underworld which is ruled by Ah Puch. He is not the most welcoming god of death as he is very smelly and Mitnal is not good for the nose which is why only undead could bear going in that underworld.

Creepysoo stood in the magic circle as it glowed in eerie purple and green lights. A purplish green gas could be seen coming out of the magic circle as the door to Mitnal has opened. Creepysoo poured more mana into the magic circle and the ground below him suddenly turned into a hole which he fell through.

"Somebody put flowers near that area because it stinks!" Baron Samedi ordered as he got a whiff of Mitnal.
