《Rise of the Lich!》Chapter 29 - Of Bones and Blood Part 1*
Advertisement
“I should stop underestimating things. This dragon was a lot stronger than we thought. It was stronger than the two of us combined! But luckily to us, we got some help.
While fighting the dragon a huge spider suddenly emerged out of the ground. That thing was huge! Even bigger then my enormous wife! She yelled something about wanting to build a small city inside the mountain in peace and told us to get lost. The proud and strong dragon didn't find that very funny and attacked her.
A Red Orb Suddenly appeared where the spider and the dragon were a few seconds prior and when it vanished only a ruined corpse was left from the dragon. The spider looked at us angrily and we quickly tried to tell her our situation. That seemed to make her very happy. She seems to be a rather romantic person and suddenly started blabbering together with my wife about men and love...
It made me kind of uncomfortable but she was very nice and even told us where we could find the other materials needed to activate the artefact. She seems to be pretty old to know how to do something like that... anyway, we are nearly there! Only a few more herbs and we did it! I can't wait to fuck my Dianas brains ou- I mean to make love with my beloved wife “
-From Jeff Rutherions 'How I married a Dragon!'
* Third Person POV *
Rodario Rutherion is currently walking through the mountains towards Saxins Lair. After getting a wedding invitation he immediately decided to accept it and attend the wedding.
It's been roughly a month since then and the day of the wedding finally came. He was very curious about who it was she's going to marry. The last time she saw her was around twelve years ago. Back then his mother and father just split up and the Spider Aspect quickly visited his mother after hearing the news. They got drunk and complained about men like two middle-aged women do...
Seeing an enormous dragon and an even bigger spider get drunk because of love problems sure was surreal.
Rodario finally arrives in front of the entrance to the city of spiders. Usually, this entrance is very well hidden, but today it is out in the open since many people were invited to the wedding. Rodario enters and is met with a few spiders who offer him a ride through the tunnel. Rodario gladly accepts and the spiders quickly bring him to their city. After entering it he is quite surprised.

The mistress often visited him and his mother but he never visited her before. Seeing a place filled with thousands of cocoons and even more spiders is quite the sight.
Rodario was bought to the grand black cocoon were the wedding will take place in. He once again thanks the spiders for the ride and enters the building. It looks like all the walls of the cocoon were taken down to create an enormous hall. Many people are inside speaking and discussing things. Rodario spots a few very well-known persons and... things.
Like the Shadow baron of Dul'achu or the twisted crocodile of the great Nil. Many monsters as well as persons that shouldn't know each other are here and talking with each other in a rather friendly manner. He feels rather uncomfortable since he probably killed some of the people that otherwise would be here today. Well he is a bit early so he looks for somewhere he could sit down. Most tables are filled with people and some of them would rather dislike him being there so he looks for a table with few people on.
And then, he sees something rather interesting. Three very strange people are sitting on a pretty big table in silence. One of them is a big undead Ogre that is just silently looking around. The second person is a female Fae that is shackled by some pretty powerful and old magical chains.
The strangest thing is the third person though. A skeleton in a fine black suit. Seeing a suited skeleton is not that strange if you ever were in the Vampire Kingdom. The weird part is the fact that this suit seems to be made out of the black Night-Webbing only Mistress Saxin can create. To have an item made out of Night-Webbing is a great honor, but a whole suit?
Also, he's sitting on a table instead of serving anyone. That's pretty much it. He's sitting with no light in his eyes or any other thing that could tell Rodario if this skeleton is even an undead or just simply dead. He also has a weird stone on his forehead. Rodario was starting to think the skeleton was just some sort of decoration but then two eerie glowing orbs appeared in his skull and he let out a big sigh.
Deciding to want to find out more about him Rodario approaches the table. And calls out to the strange skeleton while doing his best to ignore that bound up Fae. Now that he is near it the skeleton, he also notices that it's rather big and has sharp long canines. And what he thought was a hat of some sort are actually five horns growing out of his head like a crown.

“Aren't you a strange fellow? I can't say I ever saw a skeleton like you haha! Mind if I sit down on your table?” (Rodario)
“Hm? Yeah, whatever.” (Sirius)
The skeleton seemed to be deep in thoughts. Rodario was a bit disappointed since he came here for a nice talk.
“Don't mind our master.” (???)
“Yeah he's still in shock and talking with himself inside his head for a month now.” (???)
“His retardation indeed reached a new peak.” (???)
“Don't say that, Schwarz! We all agreed on not addressing our masters incredible amount of flaws!” (???)
“Saying that he has 'an incredible amount of flaws' isn't really much better, Rot...” (???)
“No one asked you, Grau!” (Rot)
Rodario is surprised to find three fairies sitting on small chairs in front of a small table on top of the big one. What surprises him even more is the dark aura coming from those fairies.
“...You are really a strange guy. How the hell did you get some primal fairies to follow you? They are pretty arrogant and annoying to deal with. Father once had to pluck the wings of a couple hundreds of them and nearly exploded from rage because of their talks “
“Fairies? What? Oh, you guys are here?” (Sirius)
“Are you for real? We are here since a month ago! Doro told us about the wedding” (Schwarz)
“I didn't notice. Had to think... a lot.” (Sirius)
“We can see that!” (Rot)
“Hm? Who the hell are you? Since when did I gain a red-haired minion?” (Sirius)
“What? I'm not your minion!” (Rodario)
“You aren't? Then why the hell are you sitting so close to me. You look kinda creepy with that feminine face of yours.” (Sirius)
“I just asked you if I could sit here less than thirty seconds ago...” (Rodario)
“...Is that so? Sorry then. I was... in thoughts. *cough* Well, I'm Sirius. Who are you?”
“Good day, Sirius! My name is Rodario Rutherion!” (Rodario)
“…” (Sirius)
“Something the matter?” (Rodario)
“Are you the Dragon Warrior by any chance?” (Sirius)
“Well, it's one of my titles...” (Rodario)
“Am I dead?” (Sirius)
“What?” (Rodario)
“Are you going to fucking kill me?!” (Sirius)
“What, no! I'm just here for the wedding!” (Rodario)
“Hm, wedding? Whose?” (Sirius)
“…The wedding of spider mistress Saxin?” (Rodario)
“…Right. Sorry I'm still in denial. Why is the 'Strongest Adventurer' here anyway? Shit a lot of people are actually here!” (Sirius)
Sirius looks around the room with a shocked expression on his face.
“Hahaha you are pretty funny, eh? My mother and the Bride are good friends.” (Rodario)
“Your mother, the dragon right?” (Sirius)
“Yeah. When she took over the West sixty years ago or so she got some nifty help from the Spider Aspect.” (Rodario)
“I see... is your mother coming as well?” (Sirius)
“I bet she will! I'm also hoping for my father to get over here. I'm sure neither of them will be able to stay mad and calm when they see each other... it's always disturbing to me seeing them be all lovey-dovey but it's better than them arguing.” (Rodario)
“Come to think about it, I always wondered why they split up.” (Sirius)
“It was something really trivial... my father was really drunk once and mistook another dragon for my mother and kissed it on the neck. Mother got really furious though and snapped the dragons neck on the spot where father kissed it. Sadly, instead of apologizing he just said that she overreacted and that started a huge argument.” (Rodario)
“Really? That's it? A kiss on the neck made them split up?” (Sirius)
“They aren't really split up, more like on a break. My father still can't sleep without a scale of mother he took before leaving inside his arms.” (Rodario)
“That's kind of disturbing.” (Sirius)
“You find that disturbing? Haha! You should see my mother then! She made a whole puppet and gave it a wig made out of hair of my father she found on her bed, bathroom and so on.” (Rodario)
“You guys have some serious problems.” (Sirius)
“Really? I find them to be pretty cute! Haha!” (Rodario)
“…Whatever.” (Sirius)
“Say, do you know who’s going to get married?” (Rodario)
“Huh?” (Sirius)
“The invitation only mention Saxin, but not the name of her husband.” (Rodario)
“...It's Sirius.” (Sirius)
“Really? Haha! You both have the same name!” (Rodario)
“…Yeah, we have.” (Sirius)

Iferes: Slaves Of The Gods
Iferes are creatures that roam the world. They are everywhere, and anywhere. From the deepest seas, to the highest mountains. From the heart of volcanos, to the never melting glaciers. Some are weak, some are strong. Some are calm, some are bloodthirsty. What they all have in common, is that they fight for survival. For hundreds of thousands of eras, humans and Iferes lived in a world of war and blood. Ifere against Ifere, Ifere against humans, and humans against humans. But one day, in a very distant past, the twelve Mystic Iferes, and the twelve greatest kings of humanity, joined hands to end that cruel era. Together, they created a contract. A contract that, once made, would bound the two parties, and could only be broken in death. Millions of years went by, and that period of war faded in legends. And a child was born, a child that would change everything. For bad or worse, only time would say. ----------------------------- Hello, everyone! Just a few warnings before you read the novel, so you won't be disappointed. First of all, as you can probably tell, I took more than a few ideas from pokemon and the like. It's almost impossible to write a novel where creatures (Iferes) have a major part in, and not relate it to pokemon. However, as you will see as the novel goes on, I tried (and I think I succeeded) in making a universe of my own. I am sure you will like it. Secondly, compared to pokemon, my novel is a lot darker, as you probably noticed by the synopsis. I also try to give a wild west vibe to it, if you know what I mean. Thirdly, you should check out my fanfic Broke: A Clone Wars Tale. Biased as I am towards it, I think it's a great story, and so do many of my readers. It will also give you a glance at what writing style to expect. Fourth and last, I feel like it's only fair that I tell you I am a student. As much as I love writing, my main priority will always be my studies. After all, writing is just a hobby for me, at least for now (fingers crossed). As such, there probably will be interruptions in the release schedule here and there, but, if you followed me on my other novel, you will know I rarely missed an upload, and, when I did, I always made up for it. So, with all that said, I hope you can give the novel a try, and leave a review. If you are a new reader, I hope we can have a lot of fun along the way. If you read Broke, then we already made a journey together, and I hope you will follow me on a new one. Also, you should check out my patreon, there you can get chapters in advance (although they will all be published normally after a while), and a few other benefits. I appreciate every bit of support you can give me! patreon.com/reis123 PS: there will be romance, but no harem or reincarnation. The MC is just someone who was born and raised on this world.
