Chapter 36: Another assault…
After Miku ended the life of the talented Monkey Prince, she wrapped his body in a bandage. She then used the zombies to silently disappear from the scene. Other soldiers didn't even enter Miku's eyes, but this monkey prince might be a powerful and useful tool for her master in the future.
The silence descended onto the forest, then bugs began to close up the distance to eat leftovers.
-
On the other hand, Vis had another problem.
In a way, it could be called another assault.
"Die, die you Merthic DOG!" A monkey woman shouted at Vis whose hand was holding the wound he just got from her.
From behind, many women got sent free somehow and all rushed in retribution. Some people died from their sudden assault as they were exhausted and wounded from the previous assault.
It was also too sudden…
"They are… bitches that the prince had taken," One of the soldiers commented, then waves of eyes swept through Vis.
They all blamed him for taking too many women, but he had no time to bother about them.
It wasn't like they could do anything else other than looking at him with their enmity emitted through their eyes.
"Whatever… Don't let some sluts take more of our brothers," The soldiers began to seize the retribution of women relatively easily.
But Vis wasn't calm yet. He stood focused and kept an eye on everyone around him.
His focused state got disturbed by the old man Henry, "There is your water, Young Prince." He spoke faintly as anyone could see through Vis' countenance.
This young man had been thinking about something serious!
"What is it, Young Prince?" Henry asked, ready to deliver any information to General Fran.
"How could these women get free?" Vis asked, "No one has passed through us… and only the monkey prince was fast and strong enough to come here…"
"Maybe some little mouse slipped through?" Henry replied, but he also raised his vigilance. It was only fair for him to pass this message to the general.
Old man Henry left Vis for a while, then returned with the news, "General Fran said there is nothing to worry about."
If that was the case, then Vis could only agree.
He nodded to the old man, "Thanks for the water." Then turned around and left to his tent.
Some soldiers scoffed, thinking that he wanted to see whether some slut was left behind with fear.
But some of them said, "He has that sexy maid, man…"
"Right. Where is that maid? Another useless bitch…" The soldier shook his head while clenching his teeth.
However, one man suddenly came to them and added, "Have you seen the fifth prince's endurance? He might have finally found something within his bloodline."
"Hah?"
-
"Good job, Miku," Vis couldn't care less about other soldiers, so he instantly welcomed Miku upon her return.
Seeing her with the mummy in her hands, Vis smiled and patted the spot on the bed close to him.
He was happy to have her as she was a loyal and intelligent person that would fill his life more in the future.
But the mummy was also the source of happiness as it was a potential monkey prince here!
"I am back, Master." Miku bowed, "Thank you," She then replied and a faint smile flashed on her face.
Vis couldn't be happier.
He told her to unwrap the mummy, "Let's see what he will become… I have become stronger, so we can expect someone different than a zombie." Different and stronger.
Though zombies were the lowest and the weakest, they had their evolution circle.
But Vis believed the monkey prince would turn into a different type of undead he had yet to experience with it.
As his hand landed on his dead body, Vis focused on the cold flesh, then began to use his Undead Army power.
Black streaks and miasma escaped through his pores, then began to invade the monkey's dead body.
A few seconds later, the flesh began to dissipate. It seemed like it was turning into something entirely different and Vis looked forward to it greatly.
His big, dilated eyes reflected what was happening below him.
"It's a ghost," Miku commented even before the ghost could take a form.
She added, "It's probably because I killed him, master. I am the closest with the ghosts…"
"Why do you sound so bothered by that?" Vis glanced and asked. He could swear he heard her voice a little weaker and dejected.
There was a chance Miku imagined the ghost would be the bad choice for her master since she could use a few with her dullahan class.
However, her dullahan class was something extraordinary and ghosts weren't weak by any means.
Vis said all of this to her, then smiled, "Ghost is pretty awesome too. We will have more advantage on the battlefield with it. And this is Monkey Prince's ghost… It's going to be fast and nimble. A perfect fit for ghost class I would say."
His second servant smiled unknowingly and it was one big smile.
DING! DING! DING!
"Huh?!" Vis raised his face with shock.
He just defeated the monkey prince, subsided another assault, and yet… the sound of a bell rang out meaning that some other army was on their way?
He couldn't help, but scream, "Give me a break, goddamnit!"
"I will give you a break." But little did Vis know that the enemy was not on their way… "A nice break in our underground." They were already inside.
"Who are you?" Vis responded to this voice.
A voice belonging to a green-skinned woman that reeked off with the zombie smell.
