The Blood Crown

The Blood Crown
Part II



The girl ran away from the fire while the creature chased blindly she did not even care what she passed.


While in another part the undead was moving towards the hearth he was getting closer to the hearth, and, the little girl ran around the fire because she had forgotten that the dark creature was afraid of the fire aura because of the panic she had no time to think until the undead shouted back.


"Little girl running towards the fire will not dare to come near or come to me", the cry of the corpse was finally delivered which made the girl take a different direction to run towards the fire, he brought the creature into the fire.


"Well, take her to me quickly" said the corpse, who witnessed the girl being chased by a humanoid creature.


The girl who heard the orders and directions from the undead ran towards the undead in a panic, he had thought for what he was heading towards the corpse while the corpse was unable to save himself but because he already believed he was carrying the creature towards the corpse and towards the fireplace.


The girl jumped the corpse and after that the corpse said something "Little girl lowered her head quickly and after she got close to my body then jumped to the left or right", although the humanoid was wounded by the aura of the blue fireplace he continued running after he got close and saw the girl jump down and down he wanted to eat it more and more, without a second thought he ran without thinking and finally tripped by the undead and he fell.


Before falling the girl had jumped to avoid the direction where the creature fell because of the heavy body owned by the humanoid creature slightly shifted and fell with the corpse towards the fireplace and they were both consumed and burning in an instant the fire grew, the girl who saw it retreated and moved away from the blazing fire.


The growing waves of fire made the room shake strongly due to the sacrifice of two creatures in the blue fire, it was as if an explosion was about to occur as the girl went running before the explosion and hid behind a wall that was broken down by humanoid creatures.


From the fire came a loud roar from the dark creatures that were burning by the blue flames.


"Ngoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh..", the voice of the humanoid creature and continued the voice of the undead who also burned "It is very hot, ahhhkkkkkkkk.........", he shouted very loudly and echoed around the room and the prison.


But strangely he did not die immediately, the flesh from the skin that covered the bones disappeared and burned and left only the bones alone and all parts of the body into a skeleton yet slowly the flesh and blood of the corpse emerged from merging into a life form, he said, as if growing from the absence of flesh clumped attached to the bone and continued by veins and nerves that reappear and every part of the body organs are formed and blood flow that began to appear.


He cried out loudly for the magic as if he had been crushed and broken down repeatedly and continuously turned on and destroyed in a fast time, "Akhhhhhhhh .....akhhhhhhhh" a loud cry sounded.


The girl who heard that until she could not move from where she was hiding in the prison where she fell, she just fell silent and covered her ears.


After that the skin had re-formed overlaying the emerging flesh and the re-created eyeballs slowly the raging blue flames exploded and after that it began to slowly subside and the cries slowly began to diminish from before the reshaping process was slowly completed and the blue fire was extinguished but the explosion marks made the sky fragile because the shock of the humanoid creature and the explosion of fire made the ceiling collapse and made light come down shining on the hearth and accompanied by the rain that was with it, the fire from the heart of the blue fire had been extinguished and a man had been born of it, the girl who heard the cry that had ended became curious about what had happened because it felt that the fire had died.


The man who appeared on the fire fell and fainted, while the girl looked at the fire and was astonished and saw a man near the former fireplace, the girl was so shocked that the blue flames had died and the girl walked towards the man lying where the fireplace had originally been.


"What happened was why the fire died and there was a scream just now and who was sleeping there", he was astonished and he looked for a cloth to cover the man's body lying on a dusty and dirty floor.


A few minutes later the man who had fallen asleep on the floor slowly realized that his dark eyes were farsighted and the light was clearly visible from his eyes, "Where am I, not me I'm burning".


He woke up wearing no clothes and there was only a dirty cloth that covered his body after that he wore the cloth as pants and next to a girl who was asleep waiting for him to wake up from stupor.


"Little girl wakes up", the man wakes the little girl.


The girl woke up and looked at the man in front of her and said "who are you?".


Hearing the question asked by the girl, the man replied "I'm the corpse's uncle and somehow I'm like this".


The girl was confused yet she just nodded, the man stood up from where he had fallen asleep and led the boy away to the looters as they were until he saw the prison door had been smashed and they came out of the broken iron bars, as they walked around the corridor of the prison, the man noticed a strange object near a half-rotting corpse that was floating on top of it looked like a strange wisp of soul, the soul approached the soul and flew towards the man and entered the man's body making the man get a soul experience from the corpse he found, not all corpses have souls.


Only the man could see the soul above the corpse no one else could see but him, it was evident when the man asked the girl "Did you see anything on top of the body?", he said.


"I don't see anything uncle" the girl replied, puzzled by the man's question.


Because he did not want to be considered insane he stopped trying to ask unnecessary things, other than that the soul that fused with the man gave an instant experience and strengthened the man, he said, but the effect of receiving the soul is that he will be dizzy for a moment and then return to normal.


After walking down the aisle and taking some souls he finally realized that all souls taken have different shapes and colors he divided into three groups that he knew, namely the blue soul, red, and black.


The blue soul gives survival ability and adds a little stamina and insight while the red adds a little strength and agility and the last color that is black obtained from the corpse of a dark creature gives it an ability certain, but the existence of a black soul is very rare as that of a red and blue soul that is not often on top of a corpse and as for absorbing a soul he got a fragment of memory from its owner.


They both still walk in the hallway of the prison slowly while being careful when other dark creatures appear besides that the casti is not too dark because there are some torches that are still burning either to what torchesthe torch is like a living thing that never goes out.


"Uncle I want to ask you if there's something on your back and I've never seen it" the girl told the man.


"What kind of mark is that on my back?", he replied.


"It looks like the sun and the moon" said the girl and continued with the other words "I don't know what I know about fire and water".


The man also does not know what the meaning of the sign he has because the memory he can only give a part of the whole memory and even that memory he can not have anything to do with the sign which is on his back.


After being far enough away from the prison they walked again to a room in the memory of the soul that he absorbed, the storage room there he took clothes and a sword, although there are some weapons that say there are still weapons that are still worth using and are lucky enough they found a city called "Storage Box Dimensions" that is a space box where inanimate objects are stored will last in it and fortunately the box is not locked.


They opened the box and found that there was some meat and bread they could eat, they both ended up resting in the room making an ordinary fire and cooking the food they could get.


After that they continued their journey because the storage box was quite large and had a special symbol which signified that the box could not be taken away and was only useful there.


after that they found four passageways and decided to choose which path they would cross, before choosing the man tried to pry some fragments of memory owned by the soul he absorbed and finally he found the right way out of the castle that is the right way, namely the right way, they walked down the hallway until they found a dead end covered with building debris, but from the back heard several male steps.


"Hiding around the rubble" the man told the girl and she replied "Well", after the girl answered him she went to hide near the rubble or debris that covered the road, as the sound drew closer and a group of bone knight soldiers were holding a weapon, they ran towards the man and tried to kill him.


"Little girl you can come out, it's safe" she said after the girl came out from where she was hiding.


They continued their journey, too, they return to the place where before they take the left lane and go back to choose the path in front of them because there are two directions that they have not passed, namely the left road and the front and if they take the right path they'll go back to the looters.


After the straight path they passed through the road slowly although in some places they passed they met the skull troops but it was one of luck because they had not met again with humanoid creatures, after a long journey they got a large hall to their right covered by a strong iron fence and a seal embedded in the fence.


"Uncle see there is a large hall even though there is a lot of dirt there" said the little girl.


"Yes there is a hall there, but there is no entrance to it, we have to walk" he said.


They continued walking down the hallway there were several doors around the hallway they were very careful to open and always make sure there was nothing dangerous inside, after that they found two roads, namely the stairs to the top and the stairs to the bottom, they chose the stairs up when they got on top they found an iron bars that were still strong enough and they could not open them other than that they could not break the door because there would come a creature of darkness if they making a noise.


"It looks like we should go down", said the man and they rushed back down to the original place and chose the way down after going down the stairs they found a place that was quite spacious and the big door was clearly visible that was the front before the entrance of the hall, while there were many piles of bones of dark creatures and knights.


"You hide first I will examine them, I fear that they are warriors of bones and creatures of death", after the man said that the little girl was hiding on the stairs up and the man tried to approach slowly until he reached some bones.


He hit the heads of some bones to shreds but it was unexpected that some of the other bones had risen from the ground and that some bodies had also risen, there was a fairly short fight because the creatures that the man was fighting were quite weak as the undead did not have a movement that was too fast, they were easily swept away.


"This little girl here is safe" he said, and the little girl who heard him immediately ran up to the man.


In front of the hall are two doors, the first is the hall door and the second is the door in front of the hall, they went to the door in front of the hall because only one door the man just hit the doorknob with the handle of the sword until broken and managed to open the door was seen there is a former fireplace.


"Uncle said grandfather that the owner of the sign could light a fireplace blue fire try uncle do" said the girl.


"A fascinating idea we should try", after which the man approached the fireplace and stuck out his hand and closed his eyes as soon as the slightly darkened space began to light up slowly and a blessing had come, the spark that occurred near the wood fire made a small blue flame start to light up until finally he lit up and a wave as if a protector formed in the room the fire was also not like the fire near the prison the small fire that was ignited by this man was quite large and the resulting waves were also strong.


"You can rest here I'll enter the great hall when it's safe, I'll call you" said the man, holding the little girl's head up.


"Alright uncle", replied the little girl.


"And trying to find something around here there might be a storage box", after which the man left the room and walked towards the door of the hall big enough that he pushed the big door, the impulse he made produced a slightly loud noise from the two doors because they only saw from the top of the hall they could not see exactly what was inside the hall but now he could see it was clear what was inside the hall.


There is a person wearing black armor who is doing a knight award ceremony while holding a sword with both hands, the sword stuck into the floor of the hall while around me there were some fairly large poles there were four large poles, the knight wearing the black armor had a large body probably a few sizes larger than the man because just looking down he was almost as tall as the man.


out of curiosity he approached the knight and saw that there was something near where the knight saluted that is a small pole on which there is a crystal in the shape of a ball and there is something inside.


When he was near he did not suspect anything, he began to try to retrieve the ball after he took it he walked to the other side of the hall entrance to look for the prison key, as soon as he got close to the door in front of him a shock occurred.


He tried to open the door but it did not open and a black sword shot out from behind him and stuck it next to the door, the man was startled and immediately turned to look back and he was surprised that the unmoving knight started to stand up, the knight who bowed and paid his respects near the pole stood up and started running.


"How dare a lowly creature hold the crystal, I will take the crystal back and with your head" said the knight of darkness.


"it's not good", the man replied he put the crystal in a bag near the pants, while the knight of darkness ran and immediately kicked towards the man.


Seeing the kick he dodged to the right of the fight where the sword of the knight of darkness struck, the kick struck the door making the iron door crumble and bend then the knight took the piercing sword and swung his sword to defend the man.


The man dodged the attack with a few movements as for all that was passed by the dark knight's sword shattered by the sword's impact, the man rushed and ran dodging until he realized running would only exhaust his strength, he pulled out his sword which was behind his sword sheath.


The black knight raised his sword high and then did the piece point straight down, the man who saw it instantly tried to hold back the slash with the sword and both of his hands, but with the difference in body size and the slash weapon quickly shot to make the man immediately bend his knees because it blocked the slash of the dark knight.


"The lowly creatures think that they are capable", after which the knight of darkness immediately kicked the man who held back the slash of the knight of darkness and threw the man away.


The man was thrown for a powerful kick from the knight of darkness until he hit one of the big poles.


"Ughttt..., it hurts a lot" he said, as if his spine would break with a hard blow he had towards the pole, he tried to get back up while the knight of darkness had run quite fast towards the man.


The darkness knight instantly slashed back horizontally trying to halve the man's body, the man who was restrained at the stake saw a slash that came back thinking he had not been able to repel the slash with his current strength yet he slightly tilted his sword hoping that it would shift, but it turned out that his prediction was quite accurate slash from the darkness knight missed and instead stuck towards the large pole, seeing the opportunity that the man directly pierced the heart of the darkness knight.


"Do you think with this weak attack you can kill me?" said the knight of darkness.


The chest of the dark knight wearing the armour was pierced but no effect occurred, he pulled out his sword and began to move here another while the knight of darkness managed to pull the sword from Giang clearly visible pole move and shift because of the hit from the slash of the knight darkness.


It seemed that the man had the idea of making the knight of darkness to smash the pole and make it fall over him, because of the strong destructive power of the black knight.


The man rushed to run and towards the next pole which looked more fragile than the other pole, the knight chased after him the man grabbed himself towards the pole taking a defensive position, so he could not help but, the knight of darkness who ran took a stab and he immediately pushed his sword with all the strength he had towards the man until his sword stuck towards the pole.


Before the sword struck the man immediately dodged in a different direction to save himself from the prick because if he did not dodge he would instantly die where he stood.


The man immediately took a position behind the black knight while the knight just pulled out his sword forcefully made the fragile pole collapse and fall towards him, the man who saw the fallen pole and the knight who tried to dodge immediately slashed the two ankles of the knight until the knight of darkness bent his knees and then he jumped towards the side to avoid the big pole that fall towards them both.


Instantly the pole overtook the knight of darkness and made him crumble and all parts of his armor and body scattered, after that the fog that covered part of the room began to disappear and there was only a black sword that was thrown close to the pole of the building that fell, and there was only a black sword that was thrown, because the sword that the man was using had been badly damaged he took the sword of the dark knight and walked slowly towards the door which the darkness knight had kicked before.
