The Labyrinth Kingdom

Chaptre 90. Stretcher

Inside [Throne Room].

Aaron is currently busy collecting the sacrificial materials needed to summon 'Dullahan'.

Starting from the cursed Armor, cursed weapons, cursed accessories and even in one of those items there is a small tube containing a fetus in it.

"Aaron, what is it? " ask Jeanne curiously.

Aaron looked in the direction that Jeanne pointed and replied.

"It was a fetus that tainted the death energy of {Nero} and mutated into Ambar. You can call it a damned baby.

Ambar sucks his mother's life energy while still in the womb to strengthen himself.

He was a very evil creature" Aaron explained.

After hearing Aaron's explanation, Jeanne looked at the tube closer and found that the fetus in it was still alive.

"Aaron! Aaron's! It was still alive " cried Jeanne in surprise.

At first he thought that the baby Ambar in the tube was dead.

"Hmm, the word life is not very appropriate for him. He had no soul, it was just an empty shell that followed the basic instinct to survive.

Ambar is one of the creatures that stands at the intersection of life and death, just like the Vampires.

"B, so it looks! What a strange creature. But, it seems like she hates you so much" Jeanne said.

Right now, the baby Ambar who was inside the tube was looking at Aaron with a hateful gaze.

"That's a natural thing! after all, I caught him when he wanted to evolve into his perfect form" Aaron said.

"Ehhh, that's not their real form? " ask Jeanne.

"No, he's just a baby right now. But, if they manage to gather enough energy. They will enter the adult phase and evolve into Ghouls.

A creature more dangerous than it is now. " Obviously Aaron.

"Ghouls? You mean the Whisper of Death? " ask Jeanne.

"Yes, that's them" Aaron replied briefly.

"Ehhh, I think Ghouls are creatures created by someone who was bitten by a Vampire, because they are often seen together" Jeanne said with surprise after hearing this new info.

"People have misunderstood them all along, they are different beings.

Perhaps because from the beginning the two races were almost similar, as beings living on the border.

That is why Vampires and Ghouls are often seen working together while hunting prey.

After all, Vampires from the start only needed the blood of their victims, whereas Ghouls could eat the flesh of their prey.

So, it's the right combination between the two" Aaron explained.

"B, as it turns out, I just found out about this" Jeanne said.

He was quite happy with the new information he had obtained, this added to his insight into the monsters.

"Sister! I've found the book you're looking for " cried Alice.

She walked towards her brother while carrying a thick black and silver book in her hand.

"Here we go! " Alice handed the book to her sister.

On the cover of the book, there is a silver skull symbol that bites a large black eyeball.

In addition, there is an ancient inscription made of real blood under the skull symbol.

"'The Chronicles of Necropolis'. Yes, this is what I need. All the ingredients are ready, we can do the calling now" Aaron looked at the book.

Just like 'Scripture of Catasrope', 'The Chronicles of Necropolis' was also one of the cursed books that the two brothers had.

The book contained information about the dangerous creatures living in the Netherworld.

"Ohhh, are you also going to use this stupid creature? " ask Alice with a smile.

He looked at the baby Ambar who was confined inside the tube along with the other sacrificial materials.

"Yes, I think the success rate of this summoning would be much higher if we used him" Aaron replied.

"He hehhh... Every night you make annoying annoying noises in the barn.

Now, this will be the last moment of your short life. So enjoy it while you can be a stupid baby! " said Alice while mocking her.

Hearing Alice's words, the baby Ambar who was confined in the tube became furious.

"Just for free! Don't waste your energy, you stupid creature, "mock Alice.

He was very happy to see the creature's desperate expression.

"Alice is enough, don't play too much with creatures like her. It will make you dirty" said Aaron reminded his sister.

Hearing her brother's words, Alice suddenly stopped and looked at Aaron with a cheerful smile.

"Wakarimashita, Onii~sama! " said Alice obediently.

She took a few steps back to give her brother some space.

Aaron walked forward and wanted to start the summoning.

But...

"Jeanne go back a little bit, this summoning process will be quite dangerous for you" Aaron said.

"Sister Jeanne come here, I'll protect you. He he hehh. " Alicia called him.

However, Jeanne looked at Alice with a suspicious look.

'What other evil plans does this boy have in mind? ' murmured Jeanne in the heart.

Seeing Jeanne suspecting him, Alice tries to convince him.

"Did sister Jeanne not trust me anymore? It made Alice sad. Dude... Dude.. Sob. " said Alice with her acting is quite convincing.

"T, no! I trust you Alice~Chan, don't cry. Wrong brother, sorry! " say Jeanne.

He hugged Alice and stroked her head, trying to calm her down.

However, Jeanne had no idea that the girl she was hugging right now was smiling cunningly.

'Even though I said before that you can be close to my sister, it doesn't mean that you can have her easily.

You must pass through all the obstacles that I prepared first, if you want to get my approval. He hehehhh said Alice with a sly smile on her face.

But...

'I know you must be planning something evil right now. But you picked the wrong opponent, He hehehhh, ' Jeanne said in her heart.

He also looked at Alice with a wicked look in his eyes.

While these two girls are planning evil things, Aaron has already started the process of summoning.

“—Summon, the damned hero spirit, 'Dullahan'. " cried Aaron.

A moment later, from the sacrificial altar. There appeared a very dense black smoke and blocked everyone's view.

The intense pressure instantly filled the entire [Throne Room] which made Jeanne difficult to stand up.

Seeing this, Alice instantly activated her defensive magic.

“—Defense, Eternal Dome. "

Instantly, a semicircular purple light protected Alice and Jeanne who were visibly in pain.

The intense pressure that Jeanne felt before, disappeared instantly.

"{Refresh} Are you okay? " ask Alice.

He activated his magic once again, to treat Jeanne.

"Yes, thank you" said Jeanne.

"Together! " reply Alice.

Meanwhile, at the center of the summoning altar, the sound of crunching horse footsteps could be clearly heard approaching.

From within the black fog, there slowly appeared a figure of a man wearing pitch-black armor.

The man was riding on a large black horse with red eyes.

In the left hand of the man, there was a huge axe that emitted an extremely powerful death aura whereas in his right hand, he held his own head.

Aye! the black-armored knight, had no head attached to his neck.

The creature that was currently standing before Aaron was 'Dullahan'.

A former hero from another world.
