THE DRAGON CHAIN EMPEROR

THE DRAGON CHAIN EMPEROR
Chp 12: King of the Undead



I walked through these ancient ruins that looked so old, many ancient writings and paintings that I could not understand their meaning throughout the walls of the ruins.


* CRUTCH! *


* CRUTCH! *


* CRUTCH! *


When I was looking at the writing and painting on the walls of the ruins, my attention was distracted by the noise in one of the rubble hallways.


I walked slowly to peek at what creatures were inside the passageway, and as I expected, the creatures inside were a bunch of undead living in a swarm.


His form was terrifying and disgusting with a body filled only by bones with a hint of rotten flesh inside.


Undead had no mana to be able to use magic, they only attacked using their hands or pointed bones, so I guess fighting them wasn't too difficult.


'Yosh! I better get ahead!' my inner.


I prepared my sword in both hands and then went into the hallway thus attracting the attention of the Undead.


They started to move and ran towards me with the legs of his skull, making the sound of bone friction resound in that place.


When we were 5 meters away, I started using my sword technique.


[The Dark God Sword Technique: First Technique: Dark Slash! ]


* CRASSH! *


* CRASSH! *


* CRACK! *


With just a single slash of the first technique of the sword technique present, a portion of the Undead instantly cut off instantly and left behind some that were quite powerful.


So far I have only been able to use two dark god sword techniques from the seven existing techniques, namely the first Dark Slash technique and the second Furious Strike technique.


But of course I have a limit in the use of both techniques, if I use it too often at the same time then my stamina will be quickly drained, it is fatal for users of sword techniques.


Therefore I had to save on the use of the sword techniques of the dark god in order to maintain my stamina.


...


...


...


A few minutes later, I was finally able to exterminate that entire Undead with little effort from not using the sword technique at all.


I walked back down the rubble passageway in search of the undead king's nest guarding the jewel the master was referring to.


On the way down the hallway, many Undead came and blocked my path, but all of them I could beat with a little effort.


Undead actually fall into the category of B-level monsters when they are in groups of up to hundreds, but they are only F-level monsters when alone or tenth.


I'm grateful that the Undead who came to attack me so far are only in groups of 10 to 15, so I can defeat them easily.


I smelled a pungent smell and my feelings suddenly became uncomfortable when I was tracing one of the rubble hallways.


Walking for a while, I saw an Undead figure that was much more terrifying and massive than the other Undead, he wore a seedy black robe and carried a staff with gems at the ends while many ordinary Undead surrounded him.


'It was my inner Undead king.


Since I have found a destination, it's good that I finish it before nightfall.


Actually I don't know when the night will come because I'm inside the ruins, even though I'm outside I don't know because the monster forest is very dark.


So I better get this done quickly.


γ€ŒDark God Sword Technique: First Technique: Dark Slash!」


* SWOOOSH! *


* SLASH! *


* SLASH! *


I ran towards the group of Undead who were still unaware of my existence and used the sword technique of the dark god to kill them.


The surviving Undead turned their attention to me, I prepared myself to fight against a larger group of Undead than before.


But strangely ...they did not attack me at all but just quietly looked at me.


'There's a strange '.' my inner.


"What are you doing in this place, man?"


I suddenly heard a rather heavy voice and made me a little confused, there was no one in this place except myself and the Undead in front of me.


So I reflexively searched for the source of the sound.


"What are you looking for? I'm right in front of you!"


I was slightly stunned, turning my gaze I looked at the Undead King who was also looking at me with his eyes shining like a fire


'Could.... That Undead King can talk?'


..


..


..


This situation is really confusing, as far as I know only SSS-level monsters and saint beasts that can talk and have human-like intelligence, like humans, but this Undead king in front of me is clearly able to speak and seems to have intelligence as well.


If so, is he SS-leveled or at his level? If that's true then this will be very serious....


It's not good to make her emotional while I don't yet know her true level of strength, so I return her words.


"My master, he told me to come here."


"Ah, so so ... then what's the purpose of sending you to my place?"


"That-"


"Let me guess, she must want the jewel that's on me, right?"


It seems like there have been many people who have come here to obtain the gem meant by the master, so he already understands my purpose.


"That's true." I'm honest.


"Ah .. but what a pity ... have many adventurers and warriors come to this place to get the jewel, but now all have become my loyal Undead army..."


I've guessed.


"It's good to talk to you for a while, but since you've dared to bravely enter my place and kill my troops, so I won't let you off so easily."


His aura suddenly turned gripping, the surrounding Undead troops began to move and prepare to attack me.


"I see you have a unique sword technique and I've never seen it before, so I will make you my special Undead army!"


"Curtain! I will never be a disgusting creature like you!" I said, get ready to fight.


He doesn't have magic, so I guess I can fight him with extra effort.


γ€ŒDark Magic: Phantom Bullet!」


I was shocked to open my eyes wide when she used magic right in front of my eyes.


Undead had no useful body to hold mana, they did not even have souls, so they should not be able to use magic at all. But somehow the Undead King was able to use it.


He moved his wand that contained the red gem to use magic, at first glance I could see the jewel flashing a few times when he used magic.


'What is that jewel that makes the Undead King able to use magic? What is that gem that Master means?' my inner.


* SWOOOSH! *


THE SWOOOSH!


THE SWOOOSH!


I can't think of it any further because the black bullet that the Undead King shot out quickly towards me.


* TING! *


* TING! *


* TING! *


I dodged some of the black bullets I could avoid and fended off some I couldn't escape.


But not long after I fended off his attack, my sword suddenly melted to a complete destruction that made me very surprised.


"Haha! Phantom Bullet is a magic that can scrape any object it touches easily! You don't have a sword, now what are you going to do?"


This situation is really bad, I don't have a sword anymore, nor magic. All I have right now is martial arts skills.


But using martial arts to fight enemies this much is not the right idea, nor am I very much a master of martial arts as it only focuses on sword techniques.


What am I supposed to do? Should I run? Master will definitely not forgive me if I run away now.


After all, this is just a practice, it's not appropriate for me to die miserably here...

...[π™ˆπ™–π™¨π™©π™šπ™§ π™‹π™Šπ™‘]...


It was late afternoon and I was still sitting outside the ancient ruins to wait for River who was in his training inside the ancient ruins.


Actually I did not want to make him undergo this senseless training, I could no longer bear to see him in pain and suffering so much since our first meeting.


But through our match practice this morning, I realized that he had an unusual talent in the sword technique of the god of darkness.


I was really surprised when I saw him being able to use two sword techniques of the dark god in a row, although it was not too strong and stable yet but it was already beyond my expectations.


I think choosing him to be the successor to the sword technique of the dark god is the right thing, therefore I decided to give him this training as soon as possible.


This ancient ruin that was in front of me was a former sacred church building from the imperial era around 5000 years ago, it was an era where the continent of Lhigor was only ruled by one great power, namely the Equestrian empire.


People in that era only worship one Goddess, the Goddess Lightosy Savannah, who became a symbol of the light of life and purity.


Then made the belief of light or the religion of light that worships the Goddess Lightosy Savannah.


With the establishment of the light church which had many followers made the continuity of the Equestrian empire threatened, therefore the emperor had a devious plan by slandering the great pastor of the light church in conspiring with the demon race.


The followers of the light church considered the demon race to be evil and to be exterminated, so after the emperor slandered the great priest in conspiring with the demon race, it made the society become enraged and executed it en masse.


I do not know for sure what happened, but reportedly because consumed by the hatred of the priest was turned into the dirtiest and disgusting creature, the King of the Undead.


That was the history of the Undead king that was in those ancient ruins.


For the gem that River is aiming for is nothing more than an object that is completely useless to me.


Well ... I just want to test his dark god sword technique. Whether he could use the special abilities of the sword technique or not, it depended on him....
