Chapter 228 - The First Necromancer And The Lair Of Bones (II) (1/2)

”Arrogant bastard,” Lucia grinned and snap her fingers creating flames around the surrounding skeletons and burned them all to a crisp.

”Lucia, you should manage your mana more carefully, it will be hard if they try to attack you and you run out of mana to use,” I reminded her.

”No worries, Master. I might be wasting a lot of spells left and right but you underestimated my mana recovery. We demons have an insane amount of mana recovery power. And with my pure bloodline as a demon, I am capable of getting mana every second without the need to consume any kind of potion that can recover my mana.”

”Are you sure? I have plenty of Mana Potion here,” I offered.

”As I said earlier, you don't need to worry about me.”

If Lucia is confident, then I have no qualms about her using lots of mana. I distributed the Mana Potions to Dolly and Topaz instead. They needed them the most since they are firing magic skills left and right and since they are not similar to Lucia who has a monstrous mana recovery, this should at least lessen the burden.

The guy named himself as First is currently smug on the center of all the chaos, looking at us struggling from the horde of skeletons he conjured earlier. We battle against the horde of skeletons one by one and made sure to keep it down to a minimum of a few skeletons that we can manage to handle. But the bastard, First, is summoning more skeletons as we destroy the first ones. Even my skeletons are helpless once they are overwhelmed by the skeletons.

”See my power? That is what you call the power of a real necromancer! I just have to watch the fun and deal with things using all of my slaves. I don't need to even do anything just to kill you all.”

Now I am pissed. However, I keep my cool even though I really want to charge and defeat him already. But I am making sure that our plan earlier before we proceed to this situation works. As someone who is familiar with the fighting style of the necromancers, they are not much different at all and they are too bad at everything except magic and summoning. So they are too easy to kill without the skeletons.

....

”We will pretend to keep on fighting against the minions he just summoned. That way, we can slowly move our way towards him and he will not notice our approach. They rely too much on their creations and summons that they don't ever think that they will be defeated. Once we get near him, I will be the one who will do the deed to finish him off. We guys can relax after that.

”Alright, let's stick to the plan,” Dolly agreed.

...

With that brief exchange, we are now doing our plan. With coordination, we slowly make our way towards the necromancer, slowly but surely. And as expected, he didn't even care and that we are now very near him and was still confidently watching at us, struggling with the attacks of the skeletons.

”So how does it feel? Do you feel despair? The pain? The sorrow? The hopelessness?” Come on! Scream!”

With our distance, I am quite confident now. My attention seems to be like on the big skeleton but in reality, my eyes are already fixated on him, and when the timing hits, I maneuver quickly without warning and appeared in front of him.

Before he can even say anything, a gun's muzzle is already aiming at his forehead.
