Chapter 116: Tricking The Tower (2/2)

'Why did the teleportation take so long?' Ed asked his system.

[The tower finally registered that the Lich was 'defeated'. Just according to the plan] Now Ed imagined the system with an evil smile.

'What plan?' Ed was curious about what the system did.

[I don't know if the tower is manmade or not, but in case it is whoever owned the Lich wouldn't like it if we took him. In order to avoid us being detected, I made it seem like an error in the tower. Think of it as if a virus hit a computer (tower) and deleted some stuff. After disappearing no one will be able to detect the virus.] Ed could only feel pride. His system was so useful, it was unbelievable.

”Well then. We might have been delayed but once again, your name will be Siegfried. A hero who defeated a Legendary dragon, bathed in its blood and ate its heart to gain immortality.” Ed knew that Liches usually yearned for immortality, so he chose this name specifically.

”A hero, huh. Hahahaha, to think one day I would be compared to a hero. Thank you for the wonderful name master!” The Lich, no Siegfried seemed genuinely happy about his new name. Ed smiled while looking at this scene, and activated his EMS. He opened up a portal dimension and got everyone to go inside.

”This is?” Siegfried seemed surprised by Ed's ocular skill.

”It's an ability to create a special dimension. One where I could control however I want.” Ed explained to him a little more about his power. After finishing, he started cooking something to eat. He wanted to eat and rest.

”There is no need. I can sustain myself without eating anything.” Sieg was surprised to see Ed giving him his own share. Undead didn't need to eat anything. As long as they had QI they would be able to stay alive. If they run out of QI, they could absorb it from the surroundings.

”Suika, Gobuta, Goburou, and Garu all don't need to eat but they still do. You can think of it as my selfishness.” Seeing that Ed wasn't backing down, Sieg accepted reluctantly. At the same time, he felt warmth in the heart that never beat since the start of its existence. No one had treated an undead the same way Ed did. This was proof that Ed truly didn't care about a person's race, appearance or their past doings. As long as they were his comrades, he would do anything to protect them.

”By the way master. After the contract I found myself in a while dimension, what was that about?” Ed stared at him in confusion for a while before he understood. He was talking about his card form. 'So they stay in a white dimension.' Ed thought while looking at Suika and the others. Since they couldn't talk, he never knew how their card forms operated. 'I guess it was the right decision to have them out of their forms as much as possible.' Ed thought to himself.

”You can think of it as another one of my powers.” Ed didn't explain to him about the system. But one day he will.

After eating, Ed created a couple of beds for everyone and slept. Tomorrow, another hunting trip would begin.
