Nameless King-Chapter 882 The General Gathering
Wain as well as all his friends had long ago passed many barriers as all of them were either in Fourth Chronicle or Fifth Chronicle, but Wain understood that they were a minority. The general mass of people hadn't even reached Second Chronicle yet, so it was strange for him to see a Third Chronicle skeleton, which was a pretty impressive level of strength, trimming a bush or dusting a stone road.
"Well, when I saw that I was surprised too." Frigus said with a slightly pale face, "Monsters are supposed to fight, but... it's like a whole different world here."
"These skeletons were created by Sarras." Edena spoke as she waved her hand, "When he reached the Fifth Chronicle he can now create as many skeletons as he wants."
"Yeah, as far as I know now he's trying to learn how to create Fourth Chronicle undead faster as well as Fifth Chronicle." Lui Bu nodded his head with a curious look.
Wain was puzzled, "Can't Sarras create undead equal to his Chronicle? He used to do it easily."
"It's not that simple." Frigus said calmly as his gaze grew sharper, "I'm surprised, but Sarras is one of those who train almost the most. Obviously, his training is different from mine, but gradually he's getting stronger."
"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Wain raised an eyebrow as he walked past the two square bushes that looked like floating cubes, "He's a Lich, what kind of training can he have?"
"Well, he's working on making the undead faster and stronger. Also, he's learned how to give his undead different attributes, he's not always good at it, but it's really impressive." Frigus said slowly with a serious look.
"Hah, well, I hope he won't mind showing me how he does it." Wain grinned.
"Sure, he'll be glad to show you his progress. Sarras said his main goal was to create an undead that could hurt me or you. I don't know if he can do it, but he's serious about it." Frigus said with a shake of his hand.
"If he succeeds, it will be incredible." Wain shrugged as his gaze caught a massive blue-crowned tree in the distance, "What about Reto? Do you know what he does?"
Frigus shook his head, "Not at all. I rarely go to the magical forest since I think Reto's only purpose is to get as many monsters drunk on wine as possible. He has unusual abilities, it's not my field at all, so I hope he knows what he's doing." f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
Wain nodded silently as he approached the massive stone gate, it was the entrance to one of the castle halls.
"Is Elegan here?" Wain tilted his head looking at the unusual patterns on the gate.
"Yes. I haven't heard of him leaving the castle lately. He must be busy with something." Frigus said before opening the gate.
In the center of the room sat Elegan with a miniature hat on his head while his amber eyes read some important document. In front of his desk was another, flanked by two massive couches where, oddly enough, Reto, Sarras, and Nicole were seated. Reto was next to Sarras as Nicole lay relaxed alone, taking up all the space on the second couch.
They all turned at the same time toward the entrance. First, they saw Frigus, who was walking forward as slight smiles appeared on their faces, then their gaze shifted to the left, to Wain, whom they hadn't seen in a long time and their eyes went wide as if they had seen a ghost. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
"Wain...? Is it really you...?" Elegan muttered in disbelief as the piece of paper fell from his hands.
"Agh...? Is he back?" Nicole suddenly became energetic as she stood on the couch, put her hands at her sides, and stared at him intently as if trying to discern every detail of him.
"Well, well, looks like it's a very important day, doesn't it?" Reto smirked as he waved his hand. The ring on his finger shone brightly as several bottles of various wines as well as eight glasses appeared on the table.
"Fine, I'm glad you're here." Sarras nodded with a sly grin on his face, "I just recently managed to create some pretty powerful monsters."
Wain smiled, nodded slightly, and headed forward, "I'm glad to see you all. It's been quite a while, but we're all here again, aren't we?"
Elegan nodded silently before asking, "Wain, you have grown stronger, and your aura is more powerful than Frigus' even though he is on the Demigod Stage... How is that possible?"
"Good thing you noticed that, there's an explanation and I'm going to tell you about it. It's quite a long story, so be prepared to hear one of the most incredible stories of your life." Wain grinned, looked at the two couches, and asked, "But before that... Where do I sit down?"
Elegan was puzzled by this question for a moment until he realized that because of Nicole, two couches weren't enough for eight people. He grinned and said, "Hey, have you forgotten that I'm a Mimic by nature? If you need another couch, I can easily do that."
Click.
Elegan snapped his finger as the amulet on his chest glowed brightly with purple light. After a brief flash, another couch appeared in front of the table, one that was twice the size of the others.
"Brown...? Damn, that's not really my style, but I guess I have no choice." Wain shrugged, about to sit down, but Elegan quickly stopped him.
"Well, I could easily change that." Elegan smirked.
"Hmm? Really?" Wain asked in disbelief.
"Sure, do you really think we stole all the statues and decorations from somewhere? The skeletons are quick learners, but there are not yet skilled enough sculptors among them to make statues. I've been helping them with that." Elegan said confidently before waving his hand.
Whoooooooooooosh.
A purple magic circle appeared above the couch, quickly passing over it, changing the couch in a heartbeat. It was black now, with a high back and a massive crown mark.
