Church, famine and Necromancers (Updated)

Gahrkal observed the pair of fairies emerging from their inventory while these two were asking very fast questions so Gahrkal decided to answer them.

[While you slept during the night since I am not sleeping, I started to investigate some things and found a way to create weapons and armor but after creating 4 items I must wait 7 moons to be able to recreate a new item] (Gahrkal)

Both fairies did not seem surprised and Hiara spoke.

[7 moons to create a new object? It seems exaggerated to wait 7 moons to be able to do something ... maybe we can find out more in the history books in the library of some city in the kingdom!] (Hiara)

Gahrkal smiled and spoke, cleaning the place where the fire was and covering the ground where they had set fire.

[There is no hurry we have all the time of the world.] (Gahrkal)

Gahrkal doubted that he would find some information about his method of creating objects since a blacksmith was a totally different thing and Gahrkal was also wondering if every living thing in this world has the same interface as him.

Lhiara was still half awake and leaned back on Gahrkal's shoulder until she heard his voice.

[Well today we will go to the city, I suppose if I use this Cloak that I made I could go unnoticed... more or less.] (Gahrkal)

Gahrkal wondered what kind of idiot would believe that he was a human being 3 meters tall and Hiara spoke again.

[Master you do not have 3 arms to handle all 3 weapons at the same time.](Hiara)

Hiara was right Gahrkal only possessed two hands and had 3 weapons to use but the decision was quite obvious to him.

Gahrkal kept the sword and the hammer and kept the scythe leaving it hanging on his shoulder while he checked the other pieces of armor on his body and Lhiara spoke.

[Would not it has been better to create a chest armor? Is that only one shoulder has arms and legs covered to the waist...his vital part the chest is discovered.] (Lhiara)

Gahrkal laughed nervously scratching his head and answered.

[The created pieces were random...hehehe.] (Gahrkal)

Gahrkal finished arranging everything he had done to create the fire and started walking in the crops leaving them until he reached the road that led to the city that he saw the first time he managed to get out of the labyrinth and the forest.

Gahrkal took the road to the city and after about 30 minutes of walking non-stop Lhiara and Hiara spoke.

[master there is a strange group of people approaching.] (Lhiara/Hiara)

The group of people who came along the road wore full armor along with swords and shields and in this group a young woman stood out from among them since she was wearing a robe and a cane.

Gahrkal continued walking until this group of people headed towards what looked like a plume of smoke in the distance.

The group began to separate while the young woman began to give orders and this group unsheathed their swords and ran towards a town that seemed to have been attacked recently.

Gahrkal let his curiosity dominate him and followed the group for a long time observing his movements in the village even some people in the group turned their heads watching the strange person who followed them.

Gahrkal observed the group of people attacking with their swords the people in the village but the people of the village instead of fleeing for their lives they walked slowly towards the people with armor which made Gahrkal come up to the girl and it started to ask.

The young woman watched as the mysterious person who had been following them began to approach them.

When Gahrkal reached the lady she took a few steps back until she saw the pair of fairies on her shoulders, and she started talking to Gahrkal.

[Please back off and leave this place the holy church is ending with this people affected by the great plague.] (Young woman)

Gahrkal had gotten some information but again he wanted more and more answers and talked to the woman.

[Plague?] (Gahrkal)

The woman's accent with her head pointing to one of the bodies of the villagers and spoke again.

[I am afraid that these people were killed and used in a ritual carried out by a necromancer this has happened in a lot of villages.] (Young woman)

Gahrkal began to wonder why the woman was talking so confidently with a stranger but I ignore that and kept listening.

[If things go on like this the Northern Kingdom could suffer a serious famine.] (Gahrkal)

The woman observed that a soldier went to her and that he was carrying another soldier and when he arrived he began to speak to the woman.

[Great priestess, I beg you, he requires healing!] (Soldier)

The now proclaimed priestess knelt and put her hand on the soldier's forehead but quickly spoke giving him the news.

[I'm afraid it has infected the only thing you can do now is to take your friend out of his suffering.] (High Priestess)

The soldier observed his partner for a few seconds and then took out a dagger and stuck it in the throat of his companion.

The priestess approached and removed the helmet from the soldier's head, leaving it beside his body while the other soldiers began to move away from the village and reported the situation.

[Priestess are too many zombies we can not keep killing them if this continues it is possible that these zombies are headed towards other towns until finally they are enough to attack the city.] (Soldier)

The priestess stood up and spoke to the soldiers.

[They back down I'll take care of this.] (High Priestess)

The priestess raised her hands and used her magic while Gahrkal carefully observed each of her movements.

[Children of light respond to this call in my moment of helplessness.] (High Priestess)

3 columns of light appeared from the sky while some white feathers fell to the ground and after a few moments of these columns of light emerged three humans with white wings carrying swords.

Hiara and Lhiara watched the humans with wings and spoke with Gahrkal.

[Master those angels are hostile to dark magic when they notice you they will immediately attack you.] (Hiara Lhiara)

Gahrkal watched the angels for a moment, and they immediately spread their wings and began attacking the zombies killing them one by one until there were none left.

One of the angels stared at Gahrkal and bowed and the 3 angels disappeared back into the columns of light.

Gahrkal observed as the group of soldiers together the bodies in a pile and the fire while the priestess walked away with other soldiers.

Gahrkal was determined to get to the city so he decided to follow the priest to get to the city but the soldiers and the priestess began to talk in low voices talking among themselves without Gahrkal could hear them.

[Great priestess we make with the one who is following us?] Will be a danger if he tells someone what we did with that people.](Soldier)

[We will not do anything for now...besides what I see this person is trying to get to the city so I guess if I can convince him to follow me to the church I could have the archbishop investigate him.] (Priestess)
