Make your choice

"Why...what did we ever do?"

A old man in expensive medieval clothing asked.

"Nothing."

With this the old man head was cut off.

"My liege all the Knights have been killed."

"And the civilians."

"They are no casualty."

"Should we gather them up so you can add them to our ranks."

Making a face of pure disgust,Adrien responded:"no,right now am more focused on quality besides this human are really weak."

"True.

Sheathing his blade Adrien left the open field and went into the village.

It was a village that had the capacity to be a town but due to the greed of chieftain it never became one.

"Gather the rest of the people at the village square."

.

.

.

Looking at the being seated on the throne of darkness everyone who normally should have felt fear couldn't,what they expected was not happened instead of a disgusting monster or an hellspawn.

The man seated on the throne was the opposite he was handsome,the charming smile on his face was enough to swoon the ladies old and young.

"..I won't beat around the bush from henceforth I'll be presiding over this village and am giving you a choice,pack your bags and leave with your family move away to a better place.."

He paused and observe the expression on their face.

'Good,I have their attention.'

"Or."

Standing up from his throne he went to the small pool of water in the village square and dipped a little bit of necro-essence inside.

'I really hope this works,cause it been a really long time since have done this.'

"Be more,be reborn having the vitality of a young one,strength rivalling that of an orc and power you've never had."

Sitting once more on his throne he finished.

"Your choice."

'Looking at the man,his strength,the confidence he exudes.. I want to be like him...no I want to be by his side when he conquers everything.'

An ordinary with no outstanding feature stepped forward,in fact his face is so ordinary that even if you look at it for a long you forget immediately.

The man went to pool took a deep breath and dipped from the pool.

Immediately he fell to the ground and started convulsing and foaming at the mouth.

The element of darkness slowly covered him and became like a pod with red veins on it,the veins moved like an heartbeat.

Finally after more than an hour

(believe it or not they all stood there eagerly awaiting the transformation.)

The pod made out of darkness slowly withered away and the man within came out anew.

With no noticeable change in his height,the young man whose appearance was very common now had an above average beauty.

Blood red eyes and a well defined body,an aura of total darkness was covering him.

Turning towards Adrien he knelt.

"My Lord."

....

'Looks like it worked but I wonder what rac- Mmm he not an undead he more like a perfect blend between an undead and a yokai, he has more speed strength and other stuff like a vampire but non of the debuff and drawback.'

...

Seeing the transformation the rest of the crowd want to rush forward but due to Adrien presence they didn't.

"Aeru get someone to supervise them,you and Illinith come with me."

.

.

In a small room 4 figured can be seen gathering round a table.

Aeru in a soldier like fit.

Illinith dressed in different priestess clothe that allows more movement.

Adrien now wearing a nice black shirt and black pants,his hair was untied and flowing like the wind.

And finally the newly turned undead? Whose name is jeshua.

"So tell me all that you know."

"Yes-"

Raising his hands Adrien interrupted.

"Not you but the old man on the roof."

At this everyone looked up and Aeru summoned a greatsword and was ready to attack.

"Who knew you would notice me."

A old but energetic voice resounded in the corners of the room.

Looking at the door Adrien responded.

"I wonder why you didn't stop me? With your strength you should be able to put a fight and only I or Aeru could stop you."

Suddenly a figure appeared in the room.

The-

"Before you begin describing show your real face."

The man face slowly melted showing the figure underneath;the once old face transformed to that of a skull with deep eye socket the only thing visible was a small red gleam.

"How?"

" After you died all of the spirits and unxels died with you. From the weakest to the strongest they all slowly lost their energy,being one of the last few Azreal came to me and kept my soul in hibernation. He told me I'll wake up a few months before you came here and i did 2455 years later."

Staring at the skull in shock Adrien as me again.

"And violet how's...what happened to her."

"He told me to give you this."

The skull took out a small parchment and handed it over.

Holding the parchment Adrien took a deep breath before opening.

.

.

.

Outside the skull and rest were guiding the entrance and patiently waiting for their master's call.

"So what is master like know?"

The skull asked.

Stretching his ears Jeshua moved closer to know what is master to be is like.

"Master is....."

••••

So that what happened.

Crafting a seat from the shadows I slumped on it,holding the bridge of my nose and digesting the information I had.

You see after my powerup in the past,I took revenge and kill all that was involve in my experiment.

After I took revenge I sort to wipe all life on that planet but I couldn't something intervened and before I new I was transferred to another planet...no matter how I couldn't return, years passed and the situation remained the same.

Snapping out my thoughts I began formulating a plan.

'This time I don't want mediocrity,but elites so once am done move on to the next kingdom and conquer after that it Meshitil the planet I died and the place my maid,my first summon was buried.'

"Violet."

Composing myself I called for my generals.

Arranging in the order at which they are close to me Aeru at the middle,beside him on the right was the skull,beside the skull was Jeshua and on the left of Aeru was Illinith.

"What do you want to do?"

I asked the skull.

"My Lord it'll be my greatest honour to watch you rise from the ashes and start anew,blazing through your enemy like a Phoenix."

"You never changed uh."

Stretching my arm forward I poured out my energy to my fingertips and touched his forehead.

"Do you choose to serve me and pledge your undying loyalty towards me?"

"Yes my Lord."

"Rise Galador the 3rd cardinality of Malice."

[What do you think of the new cover...not bad right😏]
