Chapter 37

Standing in front of me, Hinoto was telling me what she found out.

"Haru-sama, our target is currently being guarded by five High-Class beings and fifty Low-Classes. If I'm correct, most of them are not devils like our target and they probably are from that new group you told me to be careful about."

"Khaos Brigade, that's the name, Azazel and Diehauser found they call themselves, but back on our problem, taking care of those High-Class would surely be a pain in the ass, not to mention doing it without alerting the Vatican."

"Haru-sama, we are deep behind enemy lines and if my information is correct, we are right next to their HQ, which is too dangerous for you to be near. I suggest we retreat and slowly assassinate our target, sir."

"We can't do that, Hinoto-san. God knows when we will get the chance to take care of him so far away from his safe zone."

"But, sir, we can't risk your life for revenge. In my years as a Root agent, I've learned that in a hard way, sir. Please reconsider your decision and let's retreat."

"I'm glad that you are slowly regaining your emotions, Hinoto-san, but thankfully for us, Sebastian will take care of the High-Class idiots and Athar will make them into my loyal soldiers."

Hinoto didn't say anything after she learned that Sebastian was with us because he was quite a celebrity for the Root. He was the perfect assassin and his butler persona was the perfect way of getting under the skin of his targets and if I'm one hundred percent sure, he killed quite a few ninjas in Naruto world thanks to his charms.

Using our connection from the contract, I told him to take care of the High-Class while at the same time, I summoned Athar and his Mummy soldiers.

When Sebastian told me that he caught the five High-Class, I ordered Athar to attack the Low-Class while I will deal with Diodora myself, but before I could walk towards him, the [Game] decided to give me an earlier birthday gift.

[Quest Issued: Deal with the Death

Objective 1: Capture or injured Diodora Astaroth

Objective 2: Use your power to destroy him and remade him into your loyal soldier.

Note: You gained the Ability to create Tomb Princes if the target is from a noble family and it's designated as an enemy

Rewards: Tomb guard (1000 MP per 10 soldiers created)]

[Game], what in the seven hells is the Tomb Guard?

[T he Tomb Guard are the partially mummified remains of the King's elite guard. They are exceptional warriors, maintaining all the discipline and martial skills they had in life. In battle, the Tomb Guard form unwavering ranks of armored warriors. They have spilled the blood of their enemies for countless centuries, and numerous armies have been dashed against their unyielding, implacable shield walls.

As befits warriors of their standing, Tomb Guard was gifted with fine suits of leather armor and bronze scale studded with jewels and precious metals. They carry lavishly crafted shields, inlaid with skulls, bones, and other symbols of death. In battle, the Tomb Guard wields weapons that have had powerful incantations of cursing imbued into them, with which they carve through the ranks of their enemy, cutting through necks and felling their foes with every lethal, powerful blow.]

Time for an upgrade it seems.

Meanwhile, Diodora was scared for his life. One moment his strongest bodyguards were near him and in the next second they disappeared without a trace and not even him, a High0Class devil could detect the magic of the person who took his bodyguards which made him scared.

One minute later tens of strange-looking human-like things start attacking his painstakingly fooled minions thus leaving him all one without a single meat shield in case of an attack.

Unfortunately for him, no one will come and save his ass.

Just as he was about to run, I appeared behind and I grabbed his neck. The moment he felt something grabbing his neck, Diodora's eyes bulged and his face went pale.

"N…No…Ple…se don't … kill me. I'm sorry…I'm…sorry."

"Pathetic! For the heir of the Astaroth clan, you are a disgrace, but then again that's why I am here. Do you remember some years ago when you killed an angel that was a nun?"

"Y…es, she was a bitch ."

Hearing him calling my mother a bitch made me react out of instinct and I crushed his legs and left hand.

The idiot cried in pain, but sadly for him, no one will hear his cries other than his executioner which was me.

"Who was the one that helped you? Tell me and I will end your sorry life without inflicting more pain."

"Fool…I…talk…"

"Your choice, I tried to give you a faster way out, but it seems that you don't want it."

Thanks to Athar and his insights into the manipulation of the soul, I managed to create a skill that lets me grab the soul of an injured person or a weaker person than me and do whatever I want with it.

Taking the soul of his body, I saw the blackest soul I ever saw in my entire life, not that I saw too many souls or anything. With his soul out of his body, I used my death magic to obliterate his body thus literally killing Diodora. His soul starts shaking and if I won't do something soon, he will fade from existence, which wasn't that bad, but I truly want the Tomb Guard.

A few minutes later, I learned what I needed to know about the Khaos Brigade and who was the enemy who sealed my mother's forces, killing her. His name was Shalba Beelzebub, and his strength was very familiar to me because it resembled the Aburame clan in certain respects, which doesn't make him a threat, but that slave of his who has the sacred gear to seal holy or demonic power may be a threat to me. With the bodies necessary for creating an Ancient mummy, I put Diodora's soul as the main ingredient and soon a new and slightly less mummified mummy appear in the place where the bodies were put.

The strangest thing about this new mummy was his strength. Normally an Ancient mummy will have a Mid-Class strength but this one, in particular, had the strength of a High-Class.

While I was looking at the mummy, he kneeled before me.

"My king, I'm thankful for your forgiveness and for making me your loyal soldier."

"So you retain some of his memories, I presume?"

"Not exactly, my king. I retain the skills and powers of the past Diodora, but nothing more."

"That's good I presume and you need a name that won't disgust me."

"Would it be possible for my name to be…"

(At the end of the chapter will be hall of honors for my patr3ons that supports me from now on)
