A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 83: Return of Severus

As he was grumbling about her tears, all of a sudden warmth covered his lips.

Severus thought he was dreaming.

"Is it a hallucination?" Severus questioned himself but the warmth on his lips was too real, for hallucination.

In starting, Desella only kissed the corner of his lips but soon he kissed him completely.

Severus"...."

"My first kiss!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Is it how am I going to have my first kiss?" 

Desella wasn't aware but unknown to herself, she had stolen Severus first kiss.

In his previously life-time, he was detached from the opposite sex and never allowed them to be close. The only females he ever had contact was Crown prince's fiancee, Melanie, the ex-empress and his regular maids. Forget about kissing, not even a single female had ever touched him after he became an adolescent. He was always shy against the female and thus maintained a decent distance with them. 

He believed that you should only kiss the one, whom you love and his love was, well... it's better to not remember. It was absolutely impossible to even confess let alone kiss so he remained pure, his whole life. 

In this life too, he didn't have many interactions with females except Desella, who leeched herself on him. 

Severus was shocked to his core when Desella kissed him.

"Dammit..I don't want my first kiss this way. Heavens, at the least, let me respond back. Wahhhhhhhh..so bad"

Severus frowned when warmth left his lips. 

"Oh she stopped and now she is leaving"

"Wait"

"The Fk"

"Farewell"

"No..no farewell."

"At the least take responsibility for what you did, Desella"

"You need to take responsibility for me DESELLA!"

Severus screamed in his mind, as horror gripped his heart. 

He was extremely terrified now.

No matter how much he struggled or tried, his body just didn't responded.

"Shizzzzzz"

DAMIT!"

---------------------------------------------------------------

Inside the Chamber.

Desella stood in front of Severus as she stared at Tishn.

Both of them were gazing at each other.

The atmosphere inside the room stiffened and you could practically see the sparks coming from there gazes.

It was Tishn who broke the silence, "Are you prepared?" 

"Start", she just replied monotonously.

"Sure Lil Della"

With that Tishn clasped his hands as he closed his eyes and started chatting. A few seconds later the black mist surrounded him and soon it took a shape.

A well-polished metallic spear came in view. Tishn was holding that spear. The colour of the spear was the darkest shade of black and it's edges were extremely sharp. 

One scratch from it and your entire skin will be peeled off like mush.

Desella stood there with her eyes closed, waiting to be defragmented. 

A tear slipped from her right eyes as it fell on her cheek.

The whole room suddenly turned dark because of the black mist. 

Tishn thought that the black mist was the aftereffect of using the spear so he didn't waste his time and lunged towards the Desella. 

Swish!

Clank!

Clink!

Within seconds Tishn was thrown back. He stumbled on the ground as his jaw hit the wall.

Tishn's mind went blank.

Desella heard the noises in the background but she didn't open her eyes. There was nothing more left for her to see, however, the pain that she was waiting for never came.

Soon the mist scattered away and a dark silhouette of a man came in a vision. 

Who else it can be?

It was Severus.

He was standing in front of Desella with a sword. The sword was silver in colour with the blue blade as it glinted to show it's sharpness. It was shining brightly as it showcased the absolute contrast in the atmosphere.

SEVERUS

Tishn mumbled incoherently. 

For Tishn it was a huge shock. Knowing the power he used while attacking him, he was aware that surviving such a fatal attack was near impossible, but Severus somehow survived it.

He survived the blow.

He turned impossible to possible.

"Lil Della, open your eyes darling!"

Severus faced Desella and sweetly called her name.

As soon as Desella heard the voice, she thought that she was in oblivion and probably dreaming about Severus. The dream was too good to break it, thus Desella didn't open her eyes.

Severus pouted when he saw that she hasn't opened her eyes, so he just raised his hand to caress her cheeks."Lil Della, it's me, Severus. Please open your eyes"

Desella was electrocuted when she felt the warm touch on her face. Earlier she thought she was dreaming but now, the warmth on her cheeks made her doubt her earlier dream. She shuddered when she thought about the possibility. Her eyes fluttered and with all of the faith that was left inside her, she prayed for that possibility to become true.

She quickly opened her eyes and saw the handsome face of Severus.

The joy instantly surrounded her but she was too afraid to believe what she was seeing.

"Am I dreaming?"

"No, you are not Lil Della"

Desella heard what Severus said and she instantly hugged him.

"Oh, Lord Severus! Thank goodness you are alive"

Severus let her hug himself as she climbed on his neck while hugging.

Clank!

Clink!

Sound of metal clashing came.

Desella was shocked. She didn't register what happened but when she opened her eyes, she was securely glued to a hard chest.

Severus had shielded Desella with his one hand as she was glued to him while his other hand was holding a sword that was in a deadlock with the spear of Severus.

Tishn who was earlier silently observing Desella and Severus tried sneaking an attack on both of them, but Severus was one step ahead of him and saved both of them.

"I Fking told you to fight sincerely but you never do it. Fine, you like it this way then we shall do it your way."

Severus released Desella from his grip.

"Back off Desella and take cover somewhere. This fight will probably shake the chamber"

Severus spoke grimly. His tone was too strict for Desella to oppose. Like a good child, she backed off and hid behind a shelf.

Severus smirked, "Now shall we resume?"

Without waiting for his answer he started attacking Tishn. He gave him no room for defence and cornered him entirely.

Tishn was all red. His body was covered with bruises and cuts. Fresh black blood was oozing from his body and it smelt like charcoal. 

An Utterly awful smell as well as the scene.

He became breathless and horror clouded his vision. 

"How did you find that sword? You were unconscious the entire time and never ventured anywhere, so how?"

Severus laughed in disdain.

"You know this sword was actually with you. The whole time you were here, this sword was glued to you like a shadow. Alas! You never-ever tried understanding the real meaning behind your cage."

Suspicion and doubt flickered in his eyes as he heard what Severus said."What do you mean? From east to west and north to south, I have searched everywhere. From nooks to the corner of this cage, I searched everywhere but I didn't found it anywhere."

HAHAHA

"That's where you are wrong. I really thought you were an intelligent demon but, like others, you too are dumb freak"

"Watch your mouth", Tishn roared.

"You watch your fate. There is not much time left for you"

"Hah, try me!"

Clink!

Clink!

They both exchanged fatal blows but the results were predictable.

Severus won.

Tishn was slouching on the floor with the help of the wall as his spear fell from his hand. He spurted a mouthful of black blood.

Cough Cough!

AGHHHA

Cough Cough!

"How? Tell me before I die"

Severus whose hand was gripping the sword as he pierced his chest, beckoned Desella.

Desella understood the sign and swiftly came forward.

"Tishn you know, from the starting Hades never gave you any power instead he gave you a chance. A chance to atone for your sins. A chance to experience and understand the pain and sadness that you gave others but you failed. You failed Hades, eventually, you failed yourself. This cage who you think gave you powers and the darkness that you absorbed and became powerful were nothing just a bait. This Baroque world was specially created for the demons-like you to atone for your sins. The darkness that you fed on here, was none other than the darkness created by you. It is all created by the negative emotions of people whom you have hurt in your lifetime. This darkness which you absorbed and became powerful was not for increasing levels, but to make you understand pain and loss"

"Instead of using it as a way to increase your strength you should have absorbed it and observed it. That way you would have atoned for your sins but you did opposite of it."

Tishn heard what Severus said and realisation dawned upon him.

No wonder he though his will to live was disappearing day by day. No wonder he never felt satisfied even after becoming so much powerful. Nothing was worthy. He wasn't worthy. The sins that he had committed are heinous.
