《The Death God》Ch. 14 On my way back to the Kingdom
Advertisement
“Finally finished such labor. I should have just got one of my undead minions to do this shit for me,” I said while sighing from exhaustion. Laying on the dungeon floor with my back, Nemaus is dozing off on my chest. Turning my head towards Akuezhor, “We will be going to be village to hang around for a bit before heading off to the Kingdom of Pledia.”
Akuezhor nodded his head while also laying on the floor with his face looking sideways from doing a tiring task. I stood up and Akuezhor too did the same. Stretching ourselves, I casted Illusion Mimicry’ to disguise myself. As for Akuezhor, he used a different type of disguise. He got out some kind of torn of skin of a person’s face, and wear it on his head. Masking the dark skin which only demons uniquely have and also he somehow shortened the length and sharpness of his ears. Slowly ascending the floors of the dungeon, all 3 of us finally got out of it and the scenery changed from that of a dark dungeon to a green field. The sky is blue as ever with the bright yellow sun coupled with it.
All 3 of us flew to the village where we were just at. Nemaus was in my arms while Akuezhor grew out wings from his back. These wings just look like a dragon’s wing. Which looks exactly like a bat-wing image. From what I observed from Akuezhor, he doesn’t seem very talkative. Though that is what I usually like. Conversations are good from time to time; however, I tire easily with that. Akuezhor being the silent type is a plus. We continued to head off to the village while Nemaus did his usual thing which is relaxing on my head. Thinking of dungeons, I did remember that I wanted to create one. From the information I gained from the library about dungeons, all it shows was what are dungeons. Not how to create one. Remembering the scene of Akuezhor doing something at the blue orb on the pedestal, I asked him curiously,
“Akuezhor, how are dungeons created.”
Pushing up his glasses and a smile on his face, “Dungeons are simply created by using a specific spell, but it isn’t really that easy. The most problematic issue in creating a dungeon is the mana that is needed to do so. In the past, many people have created this spell for entertainment. Gathering items and objects of value to reward a person when they complete it. However, just creating a dungeon with a system to drop items, recycling mana, and controlling the monsters within them, it takes a huge amount of mana. The spell also isn’t perfect as it can malfunction midway if you don’t fully comprehend what the spell means and does.
“Why were there rumors about dungeons being god’s creation?”
“They are merely people's ideas of it. This information which I had just a few moments ago said, is lost information in the centuries long ago.”
“I see,” I now understand that the dungeons had a bit more meaning in the past. Entertainment was one of the reasons. Well, even I was intending to create dungeon for my own entertainment.
Arriving to the village, and landing near the inn, Tyron Ters, I went in along with Akuezhor. A female receptionist who wasn’t there before spot us.
“Welcome back Mr.Azzur.” She said as she bowed with respect.
Nodding, I ascended the staircase and went to my room. Checking if it was the right room, I went inside. The luxurious room looked the same as when I went out a few hours ago. Going towards my bed and sat down, I threw Nemaus onto the soft bed. As he dropped on landed on the bed, he turned around and around on the bed until he stopped. Turning my gaze to my demon/dragon friend,

“We will be resting here for a few more hours. I want to take the time to say goodbye to some of my acquaintances. You will be staying here along with Nemaus.”
“Understood.” And questionably, he bowed towards me.
“?” Not really being to comprehend why he did so, I ignored it. Maybe it is his own way to communicate with me. Honestly though, I don’t really care. As long as it doesn’t bother both of us, then it should be fine.
Getting out of the room and outside of Tyron Ters. It seems that the villagers are still not done with the repairs. It was quite a battle still. By the progress they are making, they should be able to fix everything in 5 days. That being said, I searched for Alden, Mark, Kelsy, and Hudson. Asking a couple of villagers for where their current location is, I soon spotted those 4 near the spot where the villagers buried their dead neighbors. Coming towards them, they noticed me.
“Your family died?”
“No, fortunately all our family members are alive. We are just praying for our other friends here.”-Kelsy
Nodding my head to show that I understand, I let them pray for a while longer. In a few minutes, they all stood up.
“So why are you here Ridar.”-Alden said while seeming to have an idea to why I am here
“I’ll be leaving. Just here to say farewell to you guys.” I said with a smile
“Already?”-Mark doesn’t seem to understand why I am so quick to leave even though the village was attacked just a few days ago. He might have asked this because he is fearing that something else is going to happen to his home. Must be feeling insecure without me here, huh.
“Yes, going to get my rewards in the Goblin Subjugation quest. If you are concerned for this village safety, then there is no need. I have already dealt with it.”
The 4 showed a shocked expression on their face.
“What was the issue, Ridar, what was it?”-Kelsy
“It was a dungeon. Things happened inside of it.” I said making it vague for them to imagine the possible issues with the dungeon. I can tell from their face that they really wanted to know. Unfortunately, I didn’t really feel like telling them. I don’t believe it would make a difference if I told them or not. They didn’t really need to know anyways.
“Anyways, I will leaving shortly after packing up my stuff in the inn.” I am in no particular rush to get out of this area, it was just that I am almost nearing the gauge in my Soul Orb. This item would guarantee my safety in this world. I only need a few more strong souls to absorb, or hundreds of weak ones, and fill in the gauge. I am more or less excited to activate the Soul Orb.
“Wait Ridar, would you be willing to tell us how did you get such strength. From what I can see, you are only about 16 years old which is younger than us. Despite this, you were capable of killing the ogres and goblins so easily. Even more when there were 1000 of them.”-Hudson asked me. The nonsocial guy finally spoke out more than 10 words from his mouth.
“That is a secret.” Giving him a helpless kind of smile. He continued and persistently beg me to consider my decision. It lasted for a while, but fortunately his friends put their hands on his shoulder and turning their heads to tell him to stop. Knowing that he won’t be able to get any information to increase his capabilities, he gave up with a sad expression on his face.

“Sorry Ridar, he always wanted to be strong. That was his dream. To be able to do anything and save others.”-Kelsy told me.
I nod and after a few minutes in conversing with them, I said farewell to them and went back to thr inn. Entering the inn once again and going to my room, I see Akuezhor napping on the bed along with Nemaus. Walking in, he sensed me and slowly get up.
“Welcome back Ridar.” Akuezhor greeted me while bowing. Okay, I’m really curious now.
“Why do you bow towards me?” I inquired of him while forming some possibilities of the reason.
“Think of it as my respect towards you.” Akuezhor said.
“Though do you really have to bow?” You could respect someone without having to bow right? I mean there isn’t really need to do so.
“You are now my master.” Akuezhor told me while I froze in shock. What does he mean by that?
“Tell me how did I became your master.”
“The moment you allowed me to follow you?” Saying it as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. I don’t know what to do so I used ‘Analyze’ on him.
Akuezhor
He’s race is of that of a dragon and a demon. An offspring between demon and dragon. His father(demon) desire to make a brand new species. One of intelligence and cunningness and with the power of a dragon to back it up. Kidnapping a female baby dragon, he raised it up for many centuries and finally got the chance to impregnate it. Being born from between the 2 species, he was very intelligent from his demon half, and gained the power of darkness from his other dragon half. His father was eventually caught and executed by his kin.
Because of Akuezhor’s origin, both races didn’t accepted and persecuted him. Akuezhor desired a place where he could belong, but every one would fear him. His power of darkness could even match that of a extremely powerful darkness dragon. Because of his childhood, he longs for belonging, but there was nothing. Desiring to make one for himself, he plans to eradicate everything to make himself a home.
Contract- Akuezhor is now Ridar Azzur’s servant. He will obey whatever his master says. (Self-Made Contract made the moment Ridar Azzur allowed Akuezhor to follow him [what Akuezhor meant was to be his follower])
Passive: Steel-like Skin- skin as strong as steel despite having its elasticity.
Passive: Immense Speed and Strength
Skills: Power Augmentation, Darkness Manipulation, Trapping Specialist, Combat Perception, Illusion Manipulation, Martial Arts
‘......’
Whatever. If I have to be concerned for every little thing that happens to me. I would have become insane long before I came to this world. I nodded towards Akuezhor to show my acceptance and understanding. Going to Nemaus who always sleep like a bum, I carried him in my arms. Turning my head to look at Akuezhor,
“All right, let’s go. This time we have to walk instead of flying towards the Kingdom of Pledia. Unlike the village,ithe Kingdom were to find out that we are capable of destroying them as easy as eating cake, then unneeded attention would focus on us. If they were to know what we are capable of, they might try to involve us in their game of politics and doing so, my fun would be ruined here. Though, hypothetically, if they think we aren’t as strong as we might seem, and attack us when we decline loyalty, we will slaughter them. Plus the King.” I said, “Actually cross that, just a few of my undead minions would be enough. It would be more efficient and comes with low-risk too.
“Hahahaha. I agree. Even though we could be considerably powerful, arrogance always seem to kill the person.” Akuezhor laughed
“All righty, let’s go.” We came out of our room and then too the inn’s entrance. When I opened it, there were villagers in front of me. Bowing towards me.
“Thank You for what you’ve done for us. We will forever be grateful. If you would ever need anything, please ask us and we will help however we can,” said Raldnos, the Village Chief.
“I thank you all for your gratitude.” They might have known from the 4 who I had just spoken with a few moments ago. After that, they made way for the me, my pet, and my demon/dragon friend. They noticed Akuezhor, but since I was acting casual about it, they don’t ask me. Finally leaving out the gates of the village, we continued to walk and the villager soon wasn’t visible anymore from the distance.
‘Oops, I forgot that I left my horse there. Nevermind that, I will be getting quite a reward from all the goblin ears that I collected. I plan to only give them in sets. If I give 1000 goblin ears at once, it would arouse suspicions.’
That being said, the sun was setting down and the day once again fell asleep and the night wakes. We continued to walk despite that since we aren’t exactly human to begin with. Needing sleep isn’t a trait for undead. I asked Akuezhor if he needed sleep. He told me that having the traits of a dragon, he had a huge amount of stamina. He could last several days without needing sleep. So that problem was gone. Nemaus like always, had nothing to do, so he had his eyes closed to chill. Not sleeping though. I did noticed that he often glances at Akuezhor with a menacing gaze, which he also in turn gave it back to Nemaus.
‘What is there problem?’
In a couple of hours the day awoke and the night slept once again. It was quite a long distance between our current position and the Kingdom of Pledia. But occasionally walking for some time isn’t a bad idea.
As we were midway between our journey to the Kingdom, I was interrupted once again by.. bandits. Sensing them following us and carefully blocking every possible way to escape, I did my normal routine, silently casting a ‘Soul Sealing Barrier’. Finally when the bandits are done, a couple of them went in front of us.
“Give us all your valuables or else you shall die!- one of them screamed. Akuezhor’s face began to twitch. He was getting ready until I whispered to him.
“The moment they attack us, you are allowed to kill them. But leave some of them too me and Nemaus.” Nodding as he understood I turned towards thee bandit that had just spoken out.
“My apologies Sir, but I don’t have any sort of object that could be considered valuable. As you can see that I am not holding any luggage with be except for this fox here,” I pointed to sleeping Nemaus, “And for my partner, he is the same. Why do you think we have anything at all?”
I am actually hoping for them to attack me, gotta fill up the Soul Orb. The bandit observed us for some time and said,
“Fuck you, it doesn’t matter.” He then raised his hand as a signal to attack.
“Well then Akuezhor, Nemaus, let’s party.” as I said this while grinning.
The fight didn’t even last 5 seconds and half of them died. There were about 10 bandits left alive and unharmed.
“Our a-apologies Sir, we didn’t k-kno..” One of the surviving bandits tried to apologize while stuttering, but I created a bone lance underneath the ground below him and made it pushed into his anus. The front of the lance soon came out of the bandit’s mouth. I did the same for the others. Putting their dead corpses on display, hopefully the other groups could understand this place is a no go.
Our journey continued onto the Kingdom of Pledia. We arrived to the front gates. There was a very small line in front of it. The people are getting through the gates while having their stuff checked. The guards frequently blocked the cart when a cute girl is trying to get in. It was obvious of their intentions. The girl was starting to be aware of the corrupted side of humans. Deciding to help out, I told Akuezhor to take care of my body and used ‘Possession’. Transfering my soul into one of the guards who have a lustful expression. I turned the current me towards one of the other guards. Noticing a change in his friend,
“Hey Hegeant, what’s wrong?” As he said that I grabbed him and punched his testicles. The guard shocked from this bent down and cursed at me. The other guards were confused and in addition with the girl. I then again used ‘Possession onto another guard. The guy named Hegeant regained his awareness and saw his friend bleeding from his crotch, he asked with a concerned expression,
“Are you okay?” LOL when you were intending to do to girl, you didn’t even give a shit about her feelings. And now you are worried about this scumbag? That being said, I knew that anyone would care for their friend. Just that scumbags always befriend scumbags. I have reminded myself of human behavior. Hopefully someone does something about this. Actually, thinking of this made myself coming up with any idea. I shall order one of my minions to deal with this behavior by ordering them to kill anyone man that abuses his authority and rape or just simply rape anyone.
Back onto the action. Hegeant asked his friend if he was alright while his friend looked at him in rage. I stepped up to Hegeant and said,
“What the fuck are you doing?!” I then turned around and punched a nearby guard next to me. To sum this up in a brief way, I used ‘Possession multiple times and caused havoc at the gates. Many times I crushed their balls and gouged out their eyes. Man that was great. In the end, everyone just passed through the gate while a different group of guards tried to take control of the situation. Each one of them were beating their former friends up to death, while I with my pet and follower, entered the Kingdom.

Reborn as a DRAGON
My name is Tim, or it was until I died. There was no light at the end of the tunnel, no white room to choose any cheats from, nor was there any meeting with God. I didn’t die heroically while saving someone, and I certainly didn’t get hit by a truck. My death was rather stupid and anticlimactic, I had apparently bumped my head while sleeping and passed away... That should have been the end of the road for me, but like many self-proclaimed main characters, I joined the army of multi-dimensional travelers and was reincarnated. Being an avid light novel and manga reader, I would have been excited about the opportunity, if not for my new siblings, who tried to kill me as soon as I was born, or for my mother, who seemed to have a thing for throwing me off cliffs. And let’s not forget my murderous father, who forced me to flatten a small country as my Rite of passage. Oh, did I mention I was reborn as a Dragon?
