《Revival of Undead King》Call me Theo
Advertisement
Evan opened his eyes, his power surging up with endless power. Now, he obtained 50% of his power but as exchange of it, his life force and death force left to miniscule. On top of that, his body need to adapt due to sudden power rising.
"You.... Undead king!"
Rigard's familiar spoke in anger, a man suddenly appeared in front of Evan with strong wind. However, just by sweep of hand, Evan ceased the wind blowing at him.
"I'm sorry, but i'm never lying to you." Evan spoke with indifferent face.
"Tell me! Why did you alive?!" The familiar roared in anger. His body is made of wind and very strong, but he knows that he is not a match for Evan.
"To begin with, i'm already dead? I wasn't defeated and born to this world once again."
"Reincarnation?! How could an undead like you- an impure and sinister being like you to reincarnated?!"
Evan shrugged his shoulders. He also wanted to know but it doesn't reach his main curiosity.
"Very well, since i can't let others know i'm an Undead king..."
Evan turned quiet and he glanced at the familiar. At once, the familiar trying to flew and attacking Evan to distract him. However, cold aura spread out and freezing the familiar. Despite able to move, but the cold inflict him great pain.
"To think i would become so heartless, forgive me."
Evan flicked his fingers and at once the familiar disappeared to cold wind. Evan sighed, to be truth. His body is extremely weak. Low life force made him extremely weak and vulnerable, now he has to rely on his magic.
He looking from afar and noticed snow was falling down at other places. He knew that this clearly related to him and everyone must be aware of him. If by regaining his power, it will alert others. He needs to raise his power too; he can't rely on himself alone.
"Should i gather back my servants?"
His loyal servants, he met Romue before. Although she is loyal to him, it is unknown for the others. Now, he is in human form, the master they serve is an undead.
"Should i going back to Underworld?"
Regain his place in Underworld. It will be long and scary journey. If he could obtain the throne in there, he could lead an army of undead to assure his standing point.
'Ah, my life won't be easy anymore.' He smiled bitterly. He wants life that far away from this world's destiny. Living like normal person, a bodyguard for Noel is good enough for him. But, he once again thrown into the fire.
Suddenly, Evan remembered about Rigard's heritage.
"Where is his heritage? It can't be since i killed his familiar..."
He felt regret, he would like to obtain the heritage. Evan went leaving the shrine which is located on top of a mountain. He changed his clothes and wear robe with a cloth to mask himself.
"I shouldn't use ice magic. What magic is good?"
Changing his magic would avoid him of suspicion. Although no one will suspect Undead king as a human, he can't help but to feel alert and prepare for any possibilities. Ice magic is an icon of Undead king after all and to be truth, he is not just skilled in ice magic but other magic too.

Once going down from the mountain, the sky is orange. He didn't know how much time has passed and can't help but to think about Noel who is alone.
"I'm failure as a bodyguard. Maybe that job doesn't suit me at all."
"Should i go to farming again or i return to meet Noel once again?"
He could choice to make his own living somewhere in the wilderness without anyone care about him. That might be the best idea for him if he wanted to leave the trouble.
He walking aimlessly without guide, but he is not in hurry at all. After walks miles away from the mountain, he encountered fork road. Left or right, he doesn't know which road is perfect for him to go.
As he about to go to the right road, a carriage coming from the left. Evan stopped and waving his hand. A man is riding the carriage; this man is an elf.
The carriage stopped near Evan.
"Hello traveler, i'm Orin, a merchant." The elf greeted him. As expected from the elf, Orin is handsome man and who knows his age right now.
"Hello, i'm Evan. I'm traveling alone and at lost. Would sir Orin be so kind to let me ride on your carriage?"
Orin showing slight suspicious. A merchant must aware of his situation and suspicious towards strangers who appears out of nowhere.
"I'm sorry, but i don't trust someone easily. But, if you want to buy something, it's fine."
"Is that so, then do you have a map?"
"Sure? Which quality of map do you wish?"
"Good one."
Orin nodded and searching through his carriage to find the map. He then gives a piece of big paper. The paper showing a map of Tegged Kingdom.
"This is our location."
Orin pointed on the north of Tegged. There is Clagga mountain which where the shrine of Alcausa located. The left road will lead him to Acion village while the right road will lead him to Acion town.
"How much is it?"
"25 silver."
Evan took out the money and pay it. Orin showing a gleeful smile and bowing to him.
"Anything else?" He asked with anticipation.
"Right, i'm curious. How was the situation after the snow?"
Orin frowned and says, "The situation si quite terrible. Kings will hold a meeting at Union tower and civil wars ceased for now. They will also discuss... umm... i forgot."
"Oh, this is for you."
Evan put a silver coin and instant Orin smiled then speaks again. Evan already familiar with this kind of person who lust for money.
"Possibly of old Undead king appear and new Undead king which will makes two kings. Everyone is very worried that these two kings might work together. On top of that, several balloon ships were gone too and this is a huge bad news to everyone and um..."
Another coin.
"I heard that Undead is gathering and beginning to move at neutral zone. Who knows if it is the truth or not."
"Thank you, now, have a safe journey Sir Orin."
"You too Sir Evan, glad to have business with you."
After the carriage leaving to the right road. Evan checking himself. His life force isn't increasing at all and the strange thing is that he seems fine. Life force could disturb one life, if life force were depleted, they could pass out or maybe endanger their lives. But Evan looks fine without worry.

"I should kill several people to gain life force." He talks as if it was nothing at all. But once he said that, he bit his lips.
"I'm still heartless."
If he was truly an undead, he wouldn't have second thought. But, with emotions inside him, he is considerate with his actions towards others. To get back his life force, he must kill people, that is a selfish wish. Just like his wish to become a human again.
"I can't waver, to become stronger. I mustn’t waver."
Evan tried to resolute himself. Killing people, now, he need to bad people only. Evan spread out his magic vision. With half of his power returning, a single kingdom wouldn't be a problem of himself.
After he got several places where bandits or thieves hiding themselves, he slowly floating to the sky. Since the beginning, he could fly, but he chooses to walk. It is one of his way to enjoy his life.
At fast speed, he rushing to the nearest place. The first place located near a small where there is a house. There are several people staying here. The reason Evan knew that they are bad people because of his magic vision is not ordinary, it also detects the truth of heart.
From above, Evan shot 'Wind cutters' towards them and in instant they are beheaded. He slowly descending and absorbing the life forces.
"Wake up."
The beheaded men rose from the death by Evan's order.
"Kill people inside the house, leave no one remain."
The beheaded undead moving quickly and start the action. Evan's undead are far stronger than normal undead. Aside absolute obedience, they are far stronger and quite resistant towards holy and light magic.
Once all the people inside the house died, he took all the life forces, not forgetting death force too. He made them all to undead and killed them. Now, he is farming quite well.
Evan flew again towards the second location. This time, they are located inside a wilderness. Bandits whom staying inside a cave and they also held hostages.
Once again, same tactic, he killed some of them and made them as undead. After killed all the bandits, he proceeds to the depth of the cave where the hostages were taken.
Three people, two girls and a boy. They have wounds anywhere and seems like one of the girls lost her will. Evan took out clothes inside of their mouth and staring at the boy.
"T-thank you for saving us." The boy looking at Evan with frighten expression.
"Speak, who are you?"
"I-i'm Perry! Perry Housten! This is my sister, Najien Housten and this girl..."
Perry has small body, he may be around ten years old and due to many wounds, his appearance looks unsightly. As for Najie, she is looks hostile, her dirty jade hair is disorganized cuts. She seems better than the other girl.
Evan release them. The siblings quickly stood but the lost girl still sits down unmoving.
"Care to tell?" Evan asked to the siblings.
"We...." Najie wanted to spoke but she turned away and almost puked.
"Mister...that's..." Perry signaling Evan to lower himself for him to whisper.
"They were.... by the bandit."
Evan quickly understood. It was good enough that Najie still maintain her will but she also got traumatized. As for the lost girl, she is completely broken.
"She is earlier than us and perhaps suffer more than us."
Evan was slightly astonished; this Perry is quite good explaining the situation which is looks like as the youngest.
"You guys are nobles, right?" Evan spoke.
"Yes, i might be fine but sister..."
Najie is a girl, losing her Chasity is more than a big trouble. Her life as noble might not become easy and full of thorns. She might get depressed due to be pressed by others.
Evan went to the lost girl and kneeling in front of her. Her black eyes didn't even move slightest when Evan in front of her. He touching her cheek and in instant she is shivered.
'Ah, physical trauma.'
"Sleep."
Evan casted 'Sleep' and she instantly sleeping. Looking at the scene, the siblings couldn't help but curious for what will Evan do.
"None of you recognize her?"
The siblings shook their head. Evan sighed, he can't leave this girl alone. He staring at her and touch her forehead.
By using 'Mind read', he entering her memories.
Erona, fourteen years old. Born as a daemon, however said to be defective due to there is no horn on her head. She also blind and couldn't do much, yet, her parents love her. At certain time, their she was kidnapped by someone and sold as a slave. But the slave carriage was attacked and she was brought her. Most of the slaves were taken by a mage who working together with the bandits and few of the slaves decide to commit suicide and thus left her alone.
'Pity...'
Evan sighed, this girl's life is very pitiful. Evan could help her, but he needs her agreement.
"You two, where is your home?"
"Acion town." Perry answered.
"Good, i'll bring you two to go home."
Perry had joyous expressed but it turned to sour when he remembered about his sister. Najie had stiff expression and doesn't know how to feel happy or not.
"Heal."
Evan cured all their wounds which makes more shocked. They wanted to know if the person in front of them is an Arch mage. He also gave them robes to cover their bodies, though it was oversized for Perry.
"Thank you." Perry and Najie bowed in gratefulness.
"But what about the bandits?" Perry asked. It was obvious answer but he still wanted to know what happened to them.
"Dead."
At this time, Evan ordered his undead to kill each other and absorb their death force. Evan carry the lost girl and then walks out followed by the siblings.
"Um, mister..."
"Call me.... right, Theo."
