Hail the King

Chapter 463: How About Joining Us?

After looking at the bright smile and sensing the arrogant attitude of this young King, Hazel Bank knew that this young man was waiting for him to summon a skeletal mage as well. Although he was provoked, he couldn’t summon a skeletal mage in the same way.

When he was at his prime, he still needed to chant a spell before he could summon a skeletal mage. Since he was injured by the masters from the Holy Church already, he needed to put in more effort to summon a skeletal mage.

Since he wanted to test this young King who he believed was the [Death‘s Favorite Child], he ordered six black skeleton soldiers to charge at the white skeletal mage.

Whoosh!

Crack!

The skeletal mage simply swung its arms, and the clouds of lightning in its hands flew out and blew four black skeleton soldiers into pieces.

“Such power!” Hazel Bank’s eyebrow twitched; the power of this skeletal mage was beyond his expectation.

“Is this the power the Undead Spells could achieve when the Death Energy that even the gods are afraid of powers them? If someone had this power and had the assistance of the [Code of Death], the [Undead Shrine] won’t be conquered that easily by the Holy Church,” Hazel Bank sighed.

What this man didn’t know was that even though Fei’s Death Energy was pure, it was different from the Undead Energy in this world; Fei couldn’t summon tens of thousands of skeleton soldiers and skeletal mages. There was a limit to the number of creatures Fei could summon; he was now a level 65 Necromancer, and he could only summon five skeletal mages that were capable of random spells and eight skeleton soldiers.

However, Hazel Bank was sure that this young King in front of him was the person in the legends who had the supreme Death Energy. The people who had golden Holy Power in the Holy Church were referred to as [God’s Favorite Children]. Since the Holy Church was influential and wealthy, it was capable of having more than a dozen [God’s Favorite Children]. On the other hand, the people who could use the Death Energy either naturally or through cultivation were referred to [Death’s Favorite Children]. Even though the two titles were only different by one word, they were very different in reality. It had been years since the [Undead Shrine] collapsed, and no [Death’s Favorite Child] had appeared in a long time.

In Hazel Bank’s eyes, Fei’s appearance represented the new beginning of the [Undead Shrine], and his hope was no longer impossible in his mind. In his head, Grim Reaper His Majesty was able to start caring for his loyal subjects again.

As he stared at this young King who somehow had the Death Energy and knew high-level Undead Magics, a vague plot emerged in his head.

As Hazel Bank was shocked, that boy Arthur was also stunned. His mouth was opened so wide that it could fit a dragon egg. Both of them didn’t anticipate that the new powerhouse in the Zenit Empire was indeed an Undead Mage.

At the same time, the King was enjoying the reaction from these two. Ever since he got the power of the seven characters from Diablo World, he showed cased six of them including the Barbarian, the Paladin, the Druid, the Amazon, and the Sorceress in public. However, he wasn’t able to showcase the Necromancer Character; it was like him taking a Viagra but couldn’t use it anywhere. Now, he finally met someone who he was able to show off to; he wasn’t going to let go of the opportunity.

“[Bone Wall]!”

As bone-cracking noises sounded, a wall made from white bones appeared in the palace; it was at least three meters tall, ten meters long, and one meter thick. This shiny wall was reflecting lights, and it felt murderous. From the look of it, it seemed like a squad of heavy cavaliers couldn’t even break through this wall.

“[Bone Prison]!”

Boom! A huge white bone prison cell appeared, and they surrounded four black skeleton soldiers that Hazel Bank summoned. Then, this white bone prison started to contract in size and soon broke the four black skeleton soldier; the Undead Creatures that were as hard as iron got squeezed into piles of bone dust. From the look of it, it seemed like even a Five-Star Warrior would die in it.

“[Bone Spear]!”

The King raised his hand, and one white bone spear pierced out and dashed through six black skeleton soldiers. They were put together on the spear like meat on a skewer, and the skeleton soldiers broke into pieces afterward.

“[Teeth]!”

Four teeth-shaped white flames dashed out of Fei’s hands, and they shot through four more black skeleton soldiers.

“[Bone Armor]!”

More bone-gridding noises sounded, and many small bone plates that looked like snowflakes flew around Fei’s body rapidly. In the end, they weren’t even visible anymore; there was only a white flame screen around him.

Fei laughed and controlled the skeletal mage to cast the lightning spell on him.

Boom! The lightning spell that could destroy Four-Star Warriors didn’t do anything to the Bone Armor.

Hazel Bank gradually calmed down, and he signaled Arthur with his eyes. While Arthur guarded the surroundings, he carefully observed Fei’s proficiency regarding Undead Magic. The more he saw, the more shocked he was; he realized that this young King didn’t need to chant anything before casting spells.

“This seems to be a brand-new Undead Magic structure; genius!” Hazel Bank couldn’t think straight anymore.

“[Clay Golem]!”

Fei waved his hand, and a dash of grey mist dived into the ground. Soon, rumbling noises sounded, and the soil and stone on the ground started to move. In less than ten seconds, a clay giant that was more than 15 meters tall stood up. Its body was huge, and its inverted triangular body shape revealed its power. With one smash, it knocked away six black skeleton soldiers……

After the King showed off his skills, more than half of the black skeleton soldiers were destroyed. After seeing that the Senior Elder at the [Undead Shrine] was calming down and more than half of his mana was used, Fei stopped the show.

He called over the three creatures he summoned, the white skeleton soldier, the white skeletal mage, and the Clay Golem as he smiled at Hazel Bank with the Bone Armor on him; he was waiting for this mid-aged man to speak.

“I know why you want to talk to us alone. It looks like Arthur and I walked into your trap voluntarily, right?” Hazel Bank sighed and said.

Fei laughed proudly as he corrected, “Hehe, don’t put it that way. You guys didn’t come into my trap. However, since you know my identity and intent, what do you think? How about becoming my friend and joining Chambord? It is better than being chased around and being homeless.”

The smile on Fei’s face was bright; he thought Hazel Bank would accept this offer without question.

However, this Undead Mage shook his head firmly.

“Alexander, to be honest, I don’t know how you became the king of an affiliated kingdom in the Zenit Empire, and I don’t know what you are planning. However, I have to remind you that you have been in the spotlight recently, and you are attracting the attention of the Holy Church. You have the pure Death Energy, and the Holy Church is very sensitive about that. Once they discover this, you would be turned into ashes. You would be committing suicide if you plan to fight with the Holy Church with your current strength. If I join your party, I won’t be much of a help. Instead, I would speed up the destruction of Chambord. After all, the Holy Church had sent a lot of masters after me. In a few days, the Mythical Gate is going to open, and my boom will arrive.”

After Hazel Bank learned that Fei obtained the Death Energy, he wanted to try his best to help Fei grow. However, he soon realized that it was only a hope. He was now severely injured, and his strength was greatly reduced; if he joined the Chambord Kingdom now when the masters of the Holy Church were after him, he could be destroying this young king’s future. He knew that if the Holy Church found out about the Death Energy, the young King would be destroyed.

Hazel Bank believed that this young man was the only hope and the savior of the [Undead Shrine], and he wasn’t going to let anything happen to this young man.

Therefore, he wasn’t going to serve the King of Chambord. If he did, he would be harming him.
