A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 73: Tishn -2

Desella later noticed that she was behaving like a creep thus she stopped smiling and again became serious. 

"So this Demon, Tishn is one the savage and cruel demon that is known to exist in history. He was so powerful that defeating him took a huge toll on heavens. Various Low-rank gods and heavenly pets were martyred. The times were dark and all you could smell was, just blood in the air, all you could see was just blood. The coppery scent was present everywhere. Definitely not suitable for living. The fights continued for several centuries, later it was Hades and his pet who rescued humanity and caged this demon here. OOOOf, legends say that a heavenly blackbird who had furs softer than talc and feathers lustrous than silver was the one who defeated it. He used his mighty attacks to kill him but Hades asked him to not kill the creature, thus the legendary Raven didn't kill him but Tishn was heavily injured. He was actually on the brink of death."

"No one knows why, but Hades or some reasons didn't kill him. Although if I was in his place, I would have definitely killed that lecherous and heinous monster. So this way, the Baroque mirror came into existence. Hades used his magic and created the cruellest cage in the world. He made a prison using Tishn darkness and caged him inside the mirror. From then on this mirror is called as haunted and no one was ever brave enough to keep this close to themselves, forget about keeping in the chamber of secrets for safe-keeping. I don't think anyone would be brave enough to go near it, lest steal it. Just what's up with the old man's minds?"

"Probably shit", Severus joked. Although this wasn't the time for joking but somehow Severus felt like joking on it. At the least, it helped to elevate the fear in his heart. He wasn't afraid about his own life. He had made with the peace with his choices for a long time now, but he doesn't want anything to happen to Desella. He knew that she was weak, and was only pretending to be okay.

"PFF.....HAHAHAHAHAHA"

"Yes, you are right. Shit is definitely stored inside that old man's mind."

Desella laughed out loud but in an instant, her expressions changed.

"Severus remember one thing, no matter what, if I ask you to leave from this place then you must leave, without asking anything. You will do as I say"

Desella ordered him but it was more a plea.

"No"

Severus instantly denied.

How could he allow Desella to face that demon alone. He was never the one who used to abandon his comrades, even when faced life and death situation, then how can he leave Desella to fight alone.

No

He would never follow her request.

"SEVERUS..."

She gritted her teeth in annoyance. She knew that he was behaving stubborn but this wasn't the time to behave stubbornly. Who knows when will that sly demon will attack them, and also she wasn't prepared for it. 

"You need to listen to me, Severus ..please, for once"

She tried pleading and with every sentence, her voice went in low and towards the end of a sentence it was just a whisper.

Severus' heart tugged. Maybe soft voices were his weakness.

"No means no Desella. I am not leaving you alone here to fight alone. It would be better if you give me heads up before fighting that demon, so it will benefit us. I don't want to lose to a lousy demon.

Desella"......."

Lousy you say...

She was speechless with the choice of Severus words.

Desella tried several more time but no matter how many times he tried or what ways she chooses, Severus didn't budge. Neither threaten nor plea worked on him. In the end, it was Desella who settled with a defeat.

She pulled a long face.

"Fine if you are so eager to die, then okay!!!!!!!!!!"

"Neh I am not eager to die but I am eager to save you from the clutches of darkness."

Severus has seen her past. It was full of darkness and pain thus he wanted to help her.

Desella blushed under his direct confession to save her. She stuttered in embarrassment but managed to tell the important tips and tricks to him.

" Okay so there are some points that you need to take care of

1- Never believe a shit what that demon says. No matter how much truthful it seems to you, don't believe.

2- He loves playing with the emotions of human so he will put you under an illusion. You will see various things and hallucination but again you should never believe in it. Actually, the first step is easy. You just need to have huge self-control and self-consciousness for surviving but for later you need to break the spell."

"Uhhh.spell. Is there any effect reduction spell which I can use against his second attack?"

Desella pondered about it but shook her head in denial."No, there isn't any effect reduction spell. Even if you use any spell against him, it will be deemed as useless since we are in his world. Oh yea, one more thing, Never-Ever use your magic in front of him. He has the ability to suck powers and for sure he will suck on your magical ability so come what may, you are not using magic. Am I clear ?"

Desella asked like a professor.

Severus became confused. He only has the physical strength to fight that demon and if is he banned from using his magical ability then what will he do? He is a dilemma because he highly doubt if he can stand against that demon. 

"I know what you are thinking but there is another way to resolve this problem. Using magic is a big NO. If you dare to use it, I will peel your skin and dip you in hot water before that demon can lay his hands on you."

Severus didn't doubt her. He knew that she might do this to him if he defies her.

"Okay I won't use my magical powers, but then how am I supposed to harm him? For god, sake tell me how can we leave this god damn place?"

"Uhh...you know last time it was just my luck that I was able to escape this place. To be truthful even I don't know much about Tishn. Everything that I know about him and baroque mirror is though the books that I have read when I was inside that room with a tiny door."

"Severus nodded her head in understanding. He didn't want to dwell in Desella's past as it would be useless right now.

"So what are the legends that you have read?"

"Oh, legends. There in the book, I read that Tishn was a self-obsessed character who always thought highly of himself. He was so pissed off when noworry injured him that he blamed heavens for unfairness. He cursed heavens for partiality and said that they intentionally sent Hades to kill him. They can't bear anyone levelling up and are afraid. Hades had enough of it so he just put three conditions in front of him."

"Conditions? What conditions?"

"It was that either he should bow to his defeat and die or else be caged."

Severus was flabbergasted. Isn't choosing cage was worst then accepting defeat. This world was too much for anyone to live. Surrounded by darkness which feeds on emotions. It was an insane place to live, forget about getting trapped.

"Well, I know that this place is worst for anyone to live but not for Tishn as he was a demon, to begin with. His heart was corrupted way before anyone can imagine. Emotions like friendship, love, care and humanity are just non-existent for him. He has an insatiable hunger for all these emotions and so he just eats it from all the mortals. It was also for humanity safekeeping and to give him a chance to prove himself that, Hades made this cage for him. Well before I stumbled in this world even I didn't believed in its existence but after confirming, that I was a will, nothing more actually surprised me, except your existence"

Desella said what was there in her mind, however, Severus was too lost to notice the sparkle in her eyes. "Oh okay I will not use my magical powers in front of him but at the least, I need a weapon to kill that demon"

Desella's eyes widened in shock.

"No, we are not going to kill him. He is too damn powerful. Our powers are nothing compared to him. Do you think he just fooled around while he was caged? No Savy, you are mistaken, He didn't laze around but mediated and increased his powers. He used the darkness created by hades to absorb its powers. He absorbed eons of particles of that darkness and is now a living vessel os darkness. If earlier he was savage and cruel then now he is just a killing psycho who is just driven by bloodlust. You sure you want to fight such a mad demon"
