Chapter 22 : The undead captain

[The methods of warfare have changed. A thousand years ago the honor of the races was still present but since the use of the chemical weapon the honor of the races has disappeared except for the orcs]. Signed Leon Bolray

When the group of orcs see Leon, Aude and Candice they are all immediately more reassured because they know that they will be able to solve this problem by eliminating this undead of higher class than the average undead base.

"Your majesty!" The orc in charge of the group shouts in Leon's direction with a tone filled with fanaticism.

"Fall back behind us! I'll take care of this threat right away. You have lost too many orcs, be prepared to give an explanation of this incident the moment you return to camp to Captain Urusla. Leon answers with a strict tone that leaves no room for refusal.

The orcs who hear Leon's answer know that they risk being punished if they don't have a good explanation for the death of their comrade. Indeed, the orc population is not very large so every death is taken with great care.

When the orc screamed it attracted the attention of the undead captain of more than 7 meters. Leon sees that the captain's attention has been turned towards him, so he gets off his mount and then takes to the undead with his bare hands.

"Hurry up and fall back!" Aude tells them after seeing that they still haven't moved from their position but they continue to look at Leon with great attention as if the whole world outside had never existed in their eyes.

However, the moment Aude yelled at them these orcs came to their senses and moved in the direction behind Aude and Candice's position.

The rest of the 17 orcs start to move forward but have trouble reaching their destinations.

While they are heading in the direction of Aude and Candice, Leon decides that it is time to absorb the undead that they have gathered here.

After a few seconds, he manages to absorb the basic undead that have a lower rank than the captain.

However, something strange and surprising happens when he is absorbing the undead in his domain.

Several lights were seen on the bodies of the undead before disappearing but the light that was on the body of the undead captain was seen but the captain did not disappear and appeared in Leon's domain.

So he can't absorb the undead captain.

But the undead captain is even more shocked than Leon's group because he has seen all his suborned disappear without a trace. For him, this shows that the difference in power between the two groups is too great.

He also noticed that there was some kind of energy that tried to suck him into a place he had never seen. However, he also noticed that this energy was too weak to make him force his way in like his suborned.

"Ah! It looks like this is going to be easier than expected! I just need to use a little force to force this little undead to go nicely into his future home!" Leon says laughing while looking straight into the eyes of the undead captain as if to provoke him to come and get him because Leon doesn't even place him in those eyes.

After Leon is fine to speak the undead captain decides to rush right on Léon and to use his big size to make the first fatal blow on Léon.

"BOOM!"

A heavy sound was heard as if two pieces of metal were struck together.

At the place where Leon was, there is currently a lot of dust blocking the view for the orcs present.

However, the orcs present all have calm expressions and none are panicking. It is as if they already know who will win this confrontation.

Indeed, for these orcs Leon is their King but also their GOD so a little undead captain rank has no chance to put a scratch on the divine body of their GOD!

After a few seconds the dust smoke evaporated. When the smoke has evaporated what is left in the middle is Leon who is still standing in the same position but with his fist closed in front.

The undead captain has a hole in his stomach the size of Leon's fist and is not moving at all. He seems to be dead.

It is at this moment that the body of the undead begins to return to disappear as if it returned to nature but Leon and the others present know that it will just return in a few days with the same power or even more powerful than before.

Leon decides to absorb it right away without wasting time. Because if he loses too much time, the captain might still pose a threat to his wives and his race.

A light is seen on the body of the undead captain before he disappears from this world like all the other undead.

But it is also at this moment that the domain meets some change. Indeed, the arrival of the undead captain has made the undead that are already present even more powerful. However, this increase does not seem to be very important, but it is important to know that the number of undead captains is very important on the continent of Polioni.

That's why Leon is shocked to see that each undead captain will give a small power boost to the undead already present in his space.

"When I catch undead that have a higher rank than captain I wonder how powerful my undead will be when they go into my domain. Leon said to himself inwardly as he looked at the undead in his domain.

"It's over here! Don't forget that you will still have to give an explanation for this failure!" Leon said to them with a strict tone as he looked them straight in the eyes.

"Yes your majesty! They all answer at the same time while keeping their eyes closed.

"Get up. We will call a group to come and get you! Leon said to them.

"I'm doing it now your majesty! Candice answers him, taking out her Tenergie at the same time.

30 minutes later two other groups of orcs came to their positions to escort the first group of orcs that still had wounds.

"Your Majesty! We will bring this group back safe and sound, you can be reassured!" The two leaders of the groups say to Leon before leaving in the direction of the camp.

After the group of orcs left Leon resumed his activity and continued to absorb the undead that had been isolated by the orcs.

However, he notices that his domain has changed and that the change is...
