Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 1085: Gathering dark energy



"Step back." I turned and said to Klein and the others.

Though I gave them an order, it didn't seem like they were going to follow it as Klein and the other guards just stood there.

But I knew that wasn't because they were going against me.

They were still standing there because I was still standing there. They were still standing there because they were protecting me from the undead in case anything happened.

With a faint smile, I said, "I'm moving back too."

At that, they revealed awkward looks before stepping away from the undead with me.

Once we took several steps back, I turned back to the undead and started focusing on them. As I did, the dark energy that came from the Orb of the Dead seemed to become stronger until it was almost as dark as the energy that the lich released before.

Seeing this, Klein and the others looked like they were worried again, but I raised my hand to them and said, "I'm fine, I'm just using a bit more power."

They looked at me with skeptical looks, but it seemed like I was in control, so they didn't say anything and waited to see what happened.

This denser dark energy was released from the Orb of the Dead and it went to where the undead were standing. Since it was so dense, it was actually visible to the naked eye and the others were all able to see the dark energy flowing over towards the undead.

That dark energy didn't gather under all of the undead, it just gathered under a single one.

The rest of the undead also moved away when this dark energy gathered under that one skeleton that was chosen. With the way that they were trembling, it was almost as if they were afraid of the dark energy that was there.

However, that skeleton stood there as if this dark energy wasn't doing anything to it.

With the way that it stood there, it was almost as if it was excited to see this dark energy.

After this dark energy gathered under the skeleton for a bit, it suddenly started entering the skeleton.

As the dark energy entered the skeleton, it was as if the aura of the skeleton became stronger. At the same time, there seemed to be bones that were forming out of thin air.

These bones gathered around the skeleton and seemed to form a layer of armour around it. With this layer of armour, it looked like some kind of skeletal warrior.

At the same time, the skeleton raised its hand and there was this sword that started to gather. This sword was made of bones just like the armour and it seemed to have traces of the dark energy flowing around it.

When Klein and the others saw this skeleton gathering this layer of armour and the sword, they couldn't help knitting their brows.

That was because this skeleton was slowly starting to look like...the Death Knight that they faced before.

The only difference was that the pressure that came from this skeleton was much weaker than the pressure that they felt from the Death Knight. This skeleton was clearly much weaker than the Death Knight that they faced before.

It was better to call this a Death Soldier rather than a Death Knight with the difference between them.

When it was over, the skeleton stood there fully clad in armour with sword in hand.

It just stood there as if it was waiting for an order.

It was looking at me as it stood there like this, which made it seem like it was waiting for an order from me.

I gave a nod when I saw this, but I also had other problems.

Namely...it took a lot of energy to advance this skeleton into a Death Knight.

Right, this skeleton had become a Death Knight even though the aura that it possessed seemed to be lacking compared to the Death Knight that the lich commanded.

That was because even between Death Knights, there were tiers.

The Death Knight that the lich commanded was an advanced tier Death Knight that had been nurtured by the lich for a long time with its own energy. That Death Knight had power that was comparable to the lich itself, so it definitely was not a low grade undead.

This Death Knight that I raised with the knowledge from the lich was one that had been raised not that long ago, so it hadn't developed its power properly. At the same time, this Death Knight was one that was raised with my dark energy.

This dark energy wasn't even close to being at the same level as the lich, so naturally this Death Knight was weaker.

But weaker as it may be, it was still a fully fledged Death Knight.

It wasn't considered that weak either.

Klein and the others came forward when they saw me fall forward slightly, but I raised my hand and said, "I'm fine, I'm just a bit tired from using the Orb of the Dead."

They looked at me with concerned looks, but they didn't force it when they saw that I was still able to stand. Instead, they turned their attention to the Death Knight as if they were on guard against it still.

But there was something that I wanted to test.

I looked at Klein and asked, "Do you want to fight it?"

Klein was caught off guard by this sudden question, but looking at me for a few seconds, he slowly gave a nod.

He actually had the idea of fighting this thing since he wanted to see how strong it was, but he had held back because he thought that this would be inappropriate.

He definitely never thought that I would offer him this fight.

I just gave a nod before saying, "Go on then. Be careful, it can follow orders, but they are simple orders. Don't get caught off guard and stop if you think that it's in danger."

With that, I turned to the Death Knight and said, "Spar with him."

The Death Knight seemed to react after hearing this before turning to look at Klein with red glowing eyes.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Klein gave a gulp when he saw this, but there was an excited look that appeared on his face at the same time.
