Chapters Chapter 196: A great shift in power (pt. 1) (1/2)

“Apparently, Rothschild went inside Aleister’s territory.”

“...!”

“And not alone either. He went with his whole territory. What was it called again… Keanu Reeves [1] or something…”

“...You mean Cyamodus.”

Kang Chul-in corrected Kwak-Jung’s words.

“Right.”

“Yeah, there’s no way that Rothschild would be having a war along with Keanu Reeves.”

“S-Sorry…”

Mistaking the Cyamodus territory as the amazing actor Keanu Reeves, Kwak-Jung started to scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.

“Anyway, it seems like that damned Rothschild managed to secure an alliance after going inside that skull-dude’s territory.”

“How?”

“It seems like Rothschild made a deal.”

“A deal?”

“Yes.”

Kwak-Jung nodded.

“Apparently…”

Kwak-Jung started to explain the situation.

--------

Brr…!

A giant turtle with a fortress on its back, Cyamodus, started to charge up red energy in its mouth.

Huaaa!

Flames started to rise,

Kuaaaa-!

And one of Cyamodus’s special moves, magma breath, hit the undead army head-on.

The effect was rather spectacular.

Flames covered the monsters, and the undead monsters that got hit were turned into ash.

Undead monsters were weak to the light and fire element from the very beginning when they were created, so they stood no chance.

“N-no!!”

Aleister, who was looking on from his emerald castle, screamed at this sight.

“M-My beautiful army…”

Hadn’t he already lost his status as an Overlord due to a fire-based attack in Fox Valley?

This time around, a giant turtle started to breathe flames, killing all of his precious undead monsters. He felt like he was going to go crazy.

“If I lose this, then…”

It was obvious what would happen if Aleister lost this battle.

Even though a Lord was nothing without his territory, it was even worse for Aleister.

He was stuck in a situation where he couldn’t even go back to Earth.

What could a lich, who had given up being a human, do if it went back to Earth? There was no place for him left on Earth.

Suk.

At that moment, Aleister took out a black flute from inside his robe.

This item was an epic item called the ‘Death Calling’, and was his final card that was extremely effective against a single target, like that giant turtle.

Even though it was a single-use item, it was possible to hunt even a dragon if he used it.

“Get ready… damned Rothschild bastard…”

Gritting his teeth, Aleister put his dried-up lips towards the Death Calling.

-Overlord Aleister!

At that moment.

-How about we talk for a second?

Alex Rothschild’s voice could be heard from far away since he used a magical tool to amplify his voice.

“T-Talk?”

Right as he was about to use the Death Calling, Aleister stopped, astonished by Rothschild’s words.

He had just invaded his territory randomly, and he was asking for a conversation?

It wasn’t like they were playing or anything, so this infuriated Aleister.

“Bring the amplifier!”

Aleister shouted.

“Here, milord.”

“Thanks.”

Kim Sung-hee, who had secretly come into the Deathwin territory under Kang Chul-In’s orders, said.

-”Talk”?

Aleister responded.

-What do you mean, “talk”?! Why should I talk to someone who came here without any sort of notice and attacked my territory?

Aleister shouted, his voice steely.

-Sorry about that, Overlord Aleister!
