The large black great sword suddenly exploded in tremendous power as a magic circle appeared on the ground that it pierced. An armor that is made with dark violet metal started to rise from the magic circle itself as the Doom Knight slowly rose from it. The Doom Knight rose and the wind inside the special dimension started to change.
[The Doom Knight of Dregville Village, Malefa, has risen from her slumber.]
[All undead under the Doom Knight Malefa are strengthened by 15%.]
[All undead under the Doom Knight Malefa have increased damage by 10%.]
[All undead under the Doom Knight Malefa have increased defenses by 10%.]
[The Doom Knight Malefa has 200 Death Knights under her. All Knight related skills are empowered by 20%. (Decreased per Death Knight killed.)]
[The Doom Knight Malefa has 100 Death Knight Cavalry under her. All Cavalry related skills are empowered by 10%. (Decreased per Death Knight Cavalry killed.)]
[The Doom Knight Malefa has 50 Death Knight Archers under her. All archery related skills are empowered by 5%. (Decreased per Death Knight Archer killed.)]
[The Doom Knight Malefa has 10 Dullahan under her. All death magic related skills are empowered by 10%. (Decreased per Dullahan killed.)]
[A Doom Knight is leading a powerful horde of undead. All buffs to the undead under the Doom Knight will be increased by 50%.]
"Well, this is going very great for us." Creepysoo stated as he did not expect that a lot of notification would pop up just for an army led by one doom knight.
"I will start then. Primordial Armament: Sword! Aetheros Domain! Aetheros True Form!" Adrian stated as he transformed into his true form with the sword stance.
The aether dust suddenly exploded in the area as it covered the whole battlefield with Adrian at its center. A large warrior with jade, blue and gold armor appeared on the frontlines with his three soulbounds in their aether forms. The two sides are vastly different as Adrian's side shines in aether dust which are like bright lights while the Doom Knight's side are dark and gloomy.
"Kill!" The Doom Knight Malefa stated as she easily picked up the heavy great sword and pointed it towards Adrian.
"Charon, bind them."
"Dodu, make sure to defend Charon."
"Wisteria, make sure to collect all of them to me." Adrian stated as he stood tall in the battlefield with the sword in his hands.
Wisteria was the first to move as she made use of the sweet scent that is present in her tree. With the effect of aether energy, the scent is mixed with life energy which undead crave. The Death Knighs and the Death Knight Cavalry had no choice as they were enticed by this very sweet smell. Even the Dullahans are almost enticed by the sweet smell, but they burned the effect away by burning their whole body in undead miasma.
When the Death Knights and Death Knight Cavalry were enticed, all of them moved towards Adrian but he has no fear written in his eyes. Charon suddenly appeared from below the ground in his aether form and released numerous chains that are empowered by the aether energy itself. Charon's chains in his aether form looked like crystals that shined brightly and might be fragile, but they were actually tougher than one might think.
All the undead charging is trapped with the chains and their health is also being sapped. Charon redistributed all the health that he siphoned towards all the party members. The Doom Knight saw her army becoming easy targets and commanded the Death Knight Archers to release a flurry of arrows towards Charon to cancel the skill the latter was doing.
Arrows that are filled with undead miasma are fired and are on their path to Charon when Dodu suddenly showed up in front of it. Dodu then enlarged itself and opened its mouth wide open as it ate all the arrows that were supposed to hit Charon. The Doom Knight saw what happened and immediately knew that she must take action herself.
The Doom Knight held her right hand out as a magic circle suddenly appeared beside her as she summoned an armored skeletal horse that breaths dark violet flames. The ten Dullahan also summoned their steeds which are Night Mares. With the Doom Knight leading them, the ten Dullahan charged to the battlefield while the Death Knight Archers provided cover fire for them.
"All according to plan. Peridot and Creepysoo, please get ready." Adrian stated as he plunged his sword onto the ground and used his area of effect skill.
"Asmodian Prowess!" Adrian stated as a powerful beam of light suddenly shot down from the heavens.
The powerful beam of light was not just a light show as it delivered a throne made of jade, gold and pure white marble. The throne could be described as something only the holiest of gods can sit upon. If the Goddess of Light Luminaria saw the overall look of the throne, then she would be incredibly jealous and want to fashion one for her use.
Adrian did not even need to do anything and just sat menacingly on the throne that just appeared. Upon sitting on the throne, a powerful force of aether energy suddenly rushed towards all of the enemies. With each shockwave of energy that passed through them, the undead's health decreased by 5%.
One might think that aether energy will feed the undead as it is a type of life energy instead of damage them but that is not the case. Aether Energy is the purest form of life energy which even undead cannot process in one go as it is also poisonous to their bodies. Aether energy contains pure energy that is a component of holy attribute magic. In essence, aether energy is the reason why holy magic could be casted in the first place as the holiest of magic is the magic of life.
"Death Assault!" The Doom Knight Malefa stated as she covered her mount and herself in powerful undead miasma.
The Doom Knight Malefa seeing the damage that her army is being brought upon could not just idly ride her mount. She pushed through the waves of aether energy that came out of Adrian's throne and the ten Dullahan followed her lead. The ten Dullahan covered themselves in undead miasma as well and integrated their energy to the Doom Knight Malefa.
[The Doom Knight Malefa and the ten Dullahan have activated the synergy skill 'Mounted Courage'.]
[All damage to charging and cavalry skills will be increased by 100%.]
"Charon and Dodu, block it." Adrian commanded as he is still sitting on the throne and unable to stand up or else the skill will get cancelled.
Dodu fearlessly stood in front of the charging cavalry while Charon focused all of the shields on the former. Dodu's heath bar suddenly got filled to the brim, but that second health bar did not help it that much. The Doom Knight Malefa and her cavalry hit Dodu directly and shattered the second health bar. Dodu even got reduced to 70% health which means the damage is not something to scoff at.
The Doom Knight Malefa and the ten Dullahan were stopped by Dodu which made Adrian smile. Crystal chains suddenly started to bind the Doom and the ten Dullahan as Charon would not miss this chance. The Doom Knight Malefa and the undead tried to struggle as they are empowered when their leader is with them.
"Elemental Catastrophe!" Peridot stated.
Just as the enemy undead were starting to break off the crystal chains, six spheres of varying colors suddenly came down in front of the Doom Knight Malefa. The six different colored orbs suddenly fused together to make an elemental aberration which exploded in the area. The area where the Elemental Catastrophe spell was used is covered in six different elements.
[You have killed a Death Knight.]

…
Notification of undead being killed filled the screens as they have killed ten enemies. The smoke cleared and they expected that the Doom Knight Malefa would be damaged to some degree, but a large great sword flew towards the throne. The Doom Knight Malefa stood tall in front of Adrian as she did not even take that much damage.
[The Dullahan has activated Pain Split. They have absorbed the damage that the Doom Knight Malefa is supposed to receive.]
Adrian glanced at the ten Dullahan and they were all damage to a great degree. He then saw the ten Dullahan use some sort of magic on themselves to restore some of the health that they lost. Adrian smiled while the large great sword was still inches away from his face as he moved his head away just a bit to make sure he does not get decapitated.
"I will enjoy this! It has been a long time." Adrian thought to himself as he stood up on the throne and picked up the sword he plunged to the ground.
