Chapter 109: Portal Girl (2/2)

Stella, on the other hand, struggled a little, feeling as if she had to try and reet her memories back

Aldrich had an idea of why this occurred In Elden World lore, it was stated that the less experienced a Necromancer was, the harder it was for them to have arisen undead retain their old memories Because Aldrich had resurrected Stella when he was co for her memories than Fler'Gan did

But now as a Lich and at a far higher level, Aldrich did not expect to face any difficulties in terms of memory retrieval In the future, if lore related tales about Liches were true, he could even expect to start directlyhireed too strongly for his own liking

"Sir-," The girl nodded to Aldrich in recognition even if she had never seen hiardless of whether they retained their memories or not, viewed Aldrich as their 'master' and so irl addressed Aldrich like that because that was the terures of authority with Made sense, considering she was a hero academy trainee "What's your name?"

"The name's Eileen Vex Hero na me" She turned to the other hero's corpse and then shook her head She stepped to his corpse, knelt by it, and took his hand A few tears welled up from her eyes as she looked at the corpse's half blown apart face

"Was he close to you?" said Aldrich

"I interned under him in ood hero One of the few out there that knehat itherself She wiped her tears and stood up, resolute determination on her face

In just a manner of a few seconds, she had coht and protect Her force of as strong, especially considering her age "But we've still got a city left to save"

"Yes, that we do," said Aldrich "The fighting above is still going strong, but it's about time someone put an end to it When all is said and done, I will make sure Sparkwire is buried properly and that people remember him as one of the few heroes that did not abandon this city"

Aldrich did not intend to raise Sparkwire He had heard of Sparkwire, and his poere solidly in the techno realy Without a soul to raise Sparkith his mind intact, his poere useless

He would just be an ordinary zombie

Not worth it

"His family will appreciate it," said Eileen

Aldrich nodded, letting Eileen have a moment of silence with Sparkwire, but then went back to combat details "Tell me, what are your powers?"

"I can create portals fro as I have a clear e has about a two-hundred-loved hands They crackled with arcs of faint energy "I feel ht now"

"I see" Aldrich noted that Portal Girl's powers had increased significantly upon beco an undead

Very likely, her power had some limitations based on the stamina of her body and mind, and as an undead with an infinite resource of both types of stamina, she had vastly improved herself

A power like that had incredible tactical potential for Aldrich One of the biggest weaknesses he had was that he could not easily move mass amounts of his units around without ate that

Aldrich then received a signal froe point, his storm of jellyfish could look across the city and keep tabs on the battle happening at the city center And there, the storerously close to falling

There were siege type aquatic variants that acted like cannons, being rooted sea anehly effective at burning out the forcefield, and their last volley had gotten the forcefield flickering close to failure

When the forcefield fell, Aldrich had to be there

It was time to move

Onwards to the finale to save this city

"I was going to have you stay here, but you're far too useful for that You're co with me"

"Understood!" said Eileen
