Necropolis

Mission Completed: The Final Battle

Player received magic book Slayer of Demons.

This information flashed across Link’s field of vision. In his eyes, this magic book had a dark crimson cover. It flew across his eyes and eventually landed in a spot at the bottom right corner of the “game interface.”

There were already two magic books in store from this area. One of them was Essence of the Flame, and the other was Flame of Purification. They were all books regarding fire elemental spells.

The in-game system rewards nothing but good stuff. I must study them well after returning to the Ferde Wilderness, Link thought.

At that moment, Joseph could be seen carrying Wavier on his back and throwing his hideous body onto the ground. A loud thud could be heard.

Wavier had an indestructible soul and was thus still alive. However, he kept silent the entire time. There was no sign of life in his eyes nor did he show any expression. There seemed to be no vitality running through his body.

“I can’t wait to tear him to pieces!” Joseph gritted his teeth as he said. There were tens of thousands of corpses in the Necropolis. It was simply a place filled with the stench of fresh blood and corpses. This tragedy was caused single-handedly by this fallen Magician right in front of their eyes!

Wavier then snickered, “Holy Knight, you are but a weak tag along. If not for Link, do you really think I would have lost?”

He then stared at Link and shouted, “If not for your stupid potion, how could you have defeated me? You wouldn’t! This was not a fair right! You guys better hope that I never escape, because if so, I will show you true despair!”

Thud! Joseph walked forward and kicked Wavier in the face before shouting, “You bastard! Look at all the innocent lives that you killed. Do you think this is a game? How can you still be talking about wins and losses? Do you really think a few words will be able to get you out of this predicament? How childish! I am telling you now. The moment you chose to walk down this path, you were doomed to fail!”

Romilson then stared at the fanatical Wavier with a tinge of fear as he said, “This is truly a lunatic. We might have to find a way to destroy his soul.”

Milda then shook her head and said, “Alright, Romilson. Do not let fear take control of your heart. We have no need to research into dark magic just so we can destroy the soul of an evil Magician. His fate will be eternal imprisonment!” At this moment, Milda’s face was extremely pale, almost to the point of being translucent. She was extremely weak as well. If not for Romilson’s support, she could not even stand.

She controlled three Golden Tree Spirits during the battle and stayed at the forefront of the fight the entire time. If not for her valued support and Romilson’s Defensive spell, Link would not have been able to focus on his fight against Wavier.

In essence, the success of this mission was largely due to the two High Elves as well.

This time, Link had also paid a great price for his success. He drank the Blessings of the Red Dragon Queen potion. At this moment, the effect of the potion had already passed, and as promised, he was cursed with the Elemental Rejection State.

He tried to construct a Glass Orb spell. However, the fire elementals did not seem to respond to his calls, causing the spell to fail. The elements seemed to be rejecting him as though he was the plague.

One full year of this terrible state, causing all elemental spells to lose effect. This is slightly too long. It seems like I have to research into other spells to make up for this major decrease in power. Link sighed.

His power would decrease by an estimated 90%. Amongst the powerful spells in his arsenal, he only had two spatial spells that he could use.

“This place is not safe. There are undead everywhere. Even that succubus might be near. Let’s go back,” Link said.

Everyone nodded. Apart from Nana and Romilson, all of them were completely exhausted. Their only thought was to return to somewhere safe before taking a nice bath and a long comfortable nap.

“What about this Necropolis?” Romilson asked.

“Burn it.”

Ten minutes later, the entire Necropolis was engulfed in a sea of flames. Link and the group then headed straight towards the airship.

Around three miles into their journey, they heard the whirling sound of engines above them. The airship seemed to have found them and took the initiative to welcome them back into the safe haven.

Upon boarding the airship, everyone still remained silent. They had just seen true hell on earth and just wanted some time alone to recollect themselves.

The Yabbas also kept their volume to a minimum. They looked at Link and the rest with a respectful gaze.

The two priests then started healing their wounds and replenish their lost energy.

Link then took this chance to return the Statue of Saint Rafael, “Thank you, it was of great help.”

The priests then shook their heads and said, “You have done a great deed for the World of Firuman. This means nothing.”

Link merely smiled and did not want to continue the conversation. He said, “I will get some rest.”

The priests then gave him his personal space.

No one spoke for the entire journey. Around an hour later, the airship returned to the Scorched Ridge in Ferde Wilderness.

The assassination mission was already completed. Hence, there was no need to keep the airship a secret. The airship brazenly stopped in the middle of Scorched Ridge and attracted a lot of onlookers.

Amongst them. Master Grenci and Master Ferdinand were present as well. They glanced at the airship with a worried expression. When they saw Link and the rest of the team unscathed, their faces brimmed with happiness. However, the moment they saw Joseph exiting the airship with Wavier in his arms, their expression turned serious.

It was time to deal with this Necromancer.

After greeting the Master Magicians, they walked towards the Mage Tower. The Yabbas were naturally given good service and treatment. As the lord of the territory, Link made some arrangements for everyone before returning to his own room to rest.

Upon reaching his room, Link realized that Celine was already lying in wait for him.

“You’re back.” Celine heaved a sigh of relief and quickly walked forward. She had an expression of relief and joy as she said, “Here, I have already prepared a warm bath for you.”
