A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 48: Better or Bitter 2

"A person can be weak but he shouldn't be coward"

******************************************

Whenever there is a change in her emotional state her unconscious mind try to take hold of her but couldn't succeed in it"

Noworry felt like he was listening to something horrific and cruel. What was all this? Subconscious and unconscious. Was Desella a madwoman aka will?

"Is she mad?"

Severus quickly denied Noworry's acquisition.

"She isn't mad or psychotic but she isn't sane either. She is cursed to be specific. "

"Huh?"

"She isn't alive either Noworry"

"I know she isn't alive because she is a will"

"No, she isn't alive because she is a will. Actually a will is a concept"

"A concept you say. Why? You know that wills aren't anything new. They have records of it since ancient times. Although no one has concrete proofs of it, still you can't deny their existence", Noworry explained vexedly.

The one thing that he hated was when someone challenged ancient knowledge.

Severus"..."

He was aware that Noworry was offended but he couldn't help it. Ancient knowledge could be true in some cases but not always. Even the royal family had various skeletons hidden in their closets so let alone gods. Even if they were god, there would have been a hefty price that they would have paid. The higher the position, the bigger is the sacrifice.

"I ain't challenging ancient knowledge noworry but I am just stating facts. I didn't tell anyone about it, but when I read the book today while I was done with a shower I read something which nobody had ever read"

"Nobody had ever read. Are you inclining toward lost knowledge?"

"What's that? Lost knowledge?"

"Yeah, lost knowledge is the knowledge that was lost when the fight broke between that devil and god. He became too strong earlier and was on the verge off suppressing gods if not for hades, who subdued him", Noworry explained in awe. He was very proud of his master and his tone naturally became more respectful.

"II don't know whether it's a lost knowledge or not but one thing was sure that Desella had no idea of it and I bet anyone else had too."

"Hmmm?", Noworry gave him a confused look.

"Desella isn't a will but she is a product of taboo art of necromancy which is known as Prison"

"I never heard about this spell", Noworry denied any familiarity.

"Then maybe it''s a lost art then. So Desella isn't a living person but a captured soul. Someone has captured her soul and performed a memory replacement spell on her brain and sealed her memories. Her unconscious mind is her real mind and her true personality whereas the personality that is shown to us in custom made. I don't know which powerful being did she offended to receive this fate but it's worse than being captured."

"In this state even if you wish to become as identified person, you would still be lost in oblivion."

Nowrry gasped!

"If she isn't a will but a ghost who was trapped, then how come she had those powers and knowledge? What about those four walls and it's scriptures?"

Severus chuckled.

"It's all in the mind Severus"

"What do you mean it's all in the mind?"

"The person who trapped her was powerful but not enough to capture her for eternity. You know why this prison is called will?"

"Why?"

"It's because the only way to escape from this prison is your will. Your will is the key to escape from this fate however since your brain was tricked into thinking that you couldn't leave this place till someone who had the same frequency comes and saves you, you wouldn't be able to get out. No matter what, the fear of no one coming for your rescue is greater than the will to be rescued, thus Desella was trapped there for such a long time. If she had willed earlier, then I am sure that she would have broken from this prison earlier, alas!"

"Okay, I get it but still how did she have those powers? Is she a necromancer herself?"

"No?"

"How are you so sure?"

"She isn't a necromancer but was a mortal and I am sure about it because I have seen her life pass in front of my eyes"

"When?"

"When I was performing a spell near the pond. Don't tell me that you really thought that I was a slow person?"

Noworry"....."

"Sigh, I didn't take half an hour because of the spell but it took me so long because I was seeing it with my own eyes. Earlier when I was reading, Desella showed me the way and spell to rescue her but later everything in the book became blank. I think it was blank because her Conscious mind completed his task so there wasn't anything left for portrayal. I was confused when I saw the blank pages but didn't give much thought and I was going to close it but suddenly letters started to crawling upon pages and formed a sentence"

"What sentence?"

"Well, it was an additional spell that said, a will is a concept, and if you want to understand it just perform it. It didn't tell me when should I perform or how should I perform, so I performed it when I was performing the spell for Desella. I didn't perform her spell first instead I performed the second one instead and later performed the latter"

"Desella was so stupid", Severus chuckled.

"What did you see there?"

Severus blinked his eyes and after taking a deep breath he continued,"Desella was an ordinary girl who was 19 years old when was caught in this deadly fate. In my vision, I saw her childhood and adulthood. She was a simple cheerful girl like she is currently behaving but something happened when she was 16 years old and it changed her life. On her 16 birthday, she woke up early and got dressed to celebrate her birthday with her family but she didn't get the chance for celebration"

"Why? Did something happened?"

"On her 16 birthday after she got dressed she went to her younger sister's room but to her horror, her younger sister was brutually mutilated. It was a gory scene. Dark blood spilled everywhere and it stained Desella's clothes too. She became antsy and immediately ran to her parent's room while screaming but when she entered, all that was left was blood. The bedsheets were stained, curtains, carpets, and even windows had stains of blood. Nothing was left that was recognizable except her mother's bracelet and her father's slippers. That was the sole thing through which she got a hit of reality that her parents were murdered."

"She was terrified. Afterall she was a kid only at that time and the gore which she saw was something which even the adults couldn't handle it. For reference, even the battlefield isn't as gory as it was there in the room. It was as if some psychotic person was on a killing spree. It was a painful death. I have seen various death and gores myself in battleground so I know that it wasn't something a normal murderer would do."

Nowwory didn't know how to react. It was the dark side of life that nobody talks about but, if nobody discusses it, it doesn't mean it does not exist.

"Can you tell me how were they killed?"

"Yes. Their eyes were gauzed out and their lips were peeled. A crescent moon was engraved on their forehead while their legs and hands were amputated. The cuts were horrible and everything was taken out from inside of their bodies and was stuffed with some semi-solid substance. I don't know what it was, but it was too sticky and disgusting. I can't explain more otherwise I will start gagging".

Severus stopped talking whereas noworry went in deep thoughts as if trying to remember something that was deep in his memories.

He suddenly jerked and then closed his eyes to chant something. Black color mist sprayed from his wing and formed a shape.

Severus frowned when he saw Noworry creating a mist but didn't disturb him.

A black color symbol was formed by mist. It was a crescent moon that had a slash in between whereas something strange was written near the slash. It looked like a crypted curse.
