《In-game Item Storekeeper》Chapter 69 - Necromancer (Diablo III)
Advertisement
On the way back to Sonya and Johanna, Shang and Cain comes to a several piles of corpses where someone seems to be feasting on them.
Cain: What kind of abomination is this?
Cain says as he looks at the corpse-feeding white haired figure.
Shang: Not abomination. Necromancer.
Shang says as he notices the scythe of Eucliwood laying on one side of the figure.
Cain: What did you say!?
Cain is startled to know that the corpse-feasting figure was a necromancer.
Shang: Hey, Eucliwood, I found Cain, let’s go.
Shang calls out to the white haired figure.
The figure stands up upon hearing Shang’s call and turns around, revealing the beautiful face of Eucliwood and her mouth still covered with blood from corpses.
Eucliwood: So that is the famous Deckard Cain.
Eucliwood tries to step closer to Cain but he steps back.
Eucliwood: Am I that frightening ? I remember hearing stories about Deckard Cain has no fear traveling with one of us.
Shang: You are frightening when you forget to clean up. Take a look, you look like one of the Risen Dead.
Shang shows Eucliwood a hand mirror that reflects her face.
Eucliwood: Oh, my apologies. I am not done with my meal.
Eucliwood says as she touches the blood on her mouth. The blood around her mouth disappears, showing her pale skin.
Shang: We don’t have much time. Clean up and get ready to go.
Eucliwood: Got it.
Eucliwood returns to her usual business.
As Cain and Shang walks slightly far from the Eucliwood’s location, Cain starts to speak
Cain: Have the necromancers gone astray while I was gone? I don’t remember seeing them with skills like that.
Shang: Eh? They don’t have skills like that... Oh!
Shang recalls the differences between Diablo II’s necromancer and Diablo III’s necromancer.

Shang: From what I have understood, It had to do with becoming one with the death. They must have resorted to blood magic since necromancy is not enough for them.
Cain: Blood magic? When did the necromancers start to learn such magic?
Shang: When you say? I remember the necromancer who you had followed by his side has the ability to create Blood Golems by using a small quantity of his blood.
Cain: Was that how Xul creates his Blood Golems!? I had always thought it was created by using necromancy.
Shang: I suppose so… Wait, you did not know about it.
Cain: What I know is what I hear and see with my own eyes and eyes. Such knowledge about their magic like this are restricted to the cult members of Rathma and I have not gotten an answer from Xul about his magic. The question is how did you manage to know?
Shang: Eucliwood has the same skill which your friend, Xul had. Creating Blood Golems is one of her specialty.
Cain: I see.
Seeing Eucliwood is approaching them, the group moves onward to look for Sonya and Johanna.
Both of them are easy to track as they really make a mess out of the inner levels by either destroying weak walls and stone sculptures.
The group finds the pair resting in an empty room.
Sonya: This is the old man Leah was talking about?
Shang: Yup. There's no time...
Before Shang continues to speak, sounds of marching can be heard
Shang: That doesn’t sound good.
Sonya: No, it doesn’t.
Shang: We better get going.

Seeker
The Gods are dead As they bled dry, so did the magic which gave them birth. In the new era of technology, its pathetic remnants must hide in the shadows or be locked away. In the ancient era of magic two beings often stood out: Galileo, an immortal scholar obsessed with knowledge and Angelica, the most loyal servant of the greatest among the now dead Gods. But why are they worthy of mention? Because after millennia of isolation, the two emerge in the new world beyond their reckoning. The entire story is told from the third person, however, each chapter will be told from the perspective of only one of the characters. This will be signified by the first letter of their names after the chapter number to avoid confusion. I submitted this fiction as a [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] as well as a participant in National Novel Writing Month. The original challenge had been to finish this entire faction within the month of November reaching the 55.5k word minimum. This goal had been achieved. I do not own the cover picture

The Badboy Prince Just Can't Resist
"Why are you so nervous?" "I'm not.""Your pupils dilate every time you look at me. What are you so worried about, sweetheart?" He asks me, his warm breath fanning my ear. I rolled my eyes, and he took that as a response. "Why are you so afraid of me, Annalise?""I'm not," I repeated in a firm tone, trying to stop my body's temptation of leaning into his touch. "Then why can't you think properly while so close to me?" Damien's lips were now grazing my ear. His strong arms expertly pull me in, arms crossed around my waist ready to spin me back out. I despised the way he made me feel when we would dance, as if I liked being under his lead- it infuriated me. "I can think just fine." I spin myself back out, trying to take control. He chuckled,"This is why I find you so intriguing. You want to resist me, and I haven't found somebody like that before. It's quite frustrating, having someone who doesn't bend to my will."The nerve of this man!I scowled,"I'm not just going to follow your every command. Being a Prince doesn't mean you gain-""I could give you anything. A title or land, and any other girl-""I'm not just 'another girl' who will bend to your standards. I don't have time to pamper your ego as if you own the school.""In fact, I do. Thank you for reminding me sweetheart, sometimes I forget." Arrogance laced his tone, sending my fury into overdrive."I am nobody's sweetheart, especially not yours."His laugh sent vibrations through my body,"You have never failed to amuse me. I think we should get to know each other better." I felt his lips against my ear curl into a sly smirk.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Cover by @afranticdreamer#4 romance #1 royal 9-29-2020#1 kingdom 3-30-2020#3 king 4-3-2020#1 princess 4-13-2020#1 new 5-14-2020-All rights reserved -Kick back and enjoy a book with a little bit of mystery, magic, humor, and don't forget romance
