The Ruined Death Knight

Many of the warriors wished to rush toward Danzel and crash his skull, but none of them were stupid enough to attempt the such act.

And those who looked about to do were stopped by those with sane minds.

Although retired, one of their strongest warriors was incapacitated in an instant. Also, the capability to make corpses move and turn them into cursed warriors (undead) was terrifying on its own.

But what really had them panicking was the appearance of the two and the last sentence that Danzel spoke.

One clad full of dark metal, which was known to inherently hold immense cold to be used as armor with a fleshless head, with two flaring eyes gazing the beyond.

And the other wore something that resembled the white wolf fur but was held up by bones. Her small body together with her white hair and her fox mask made out of bones. She didn't look particularly threatening, but her ability to regenerate limbs was shocking to them.

And while they were panicking about what to do, some were also theorizing that those two were the incarnations of the two primordial gods.

The youngest Primordial, God of White Life.

And the oldest Primordial, God of Harsch Death.

"They must be them! Didn't you see!?"

"Shut up! They are just myths! They aren't real!"

"What are you saying!? If the God of Wild Hunt, exists, those two can also exist!"

"This isn't the time to argue about this! That guy is going towards the Lady!"

Many argued about the situation at hand and they split into 3 groups.

The ones who wanted to stop Danzel from meeting their Lady consisted of a few warriors and were the minority.

The other group was urging the others to run away from the village in fear of death.

And the last group was those who were completely panicking by the fact that Danzel and Shiro were potentially the gods that they knew.

Unaware of such thoughts, Danzel walked behind Maxxren to meet the representative. They were walking the mount up, which made him look over the whole place.

'Compared to that other village, this one seems to be much larger.' He thought.

Looking down at the village though, made him also look at the chaos that was happening because of their arrival.

'Since I opened their door, I should also close it, huh?' Danzel mumbled internally before raising his arm and started accumulating dead mana.

Maxxren who was leading them, felt the ominous mana and turned around and stared at the dead mana of Danzel in shock.

"What are you doing-"

Before he could finish, Danzel made the dead mana fly toward the gate which he lightly "knocked".

And once the dead mana entered the ground, a wall of merged bones with faint black veins started to rise, blocking the gate.

'Though the [Wall of Death Warden] is better at blocking one attack, it should be sturdy enough for now.'

Though a wall without his Warden's will inevitably be breached.

"Come out." Danzel said, resulting in his shadow being stretched before becoming alive and rising up.

Maxxren's eyes shot up in fear as he saw 4 shadows wearing the aura of death with them as their cloak.

"You will is our's, O the Creator." Talon spoke while each of them bowed their backs slightly.

"Make sure that none escapes, you are allowed to kill them if they resist."

"Huh? W-Wai-"

"Your will is our command." Ignoring Maxxren, Talon, Sylas, Leyone, and Rayone dashed down to the mountain like a mist filled with shadows.

Maxxren's eyes were filled with urgency and fear, both things that Danzel didn't want to address.

"It would be wise to continue showing the say, mortal. Otherwise, you people might show resistance down there."

Understanding what he was implying, Maxxren nodded his head swiftly.

"Y-Yes! Just a bit more and we will arrive... it's this way." Maxxren said as he stepped hasten from before, making Danzel think that this guy was trying to buy time.

'Should I just kill this guy?' He thought internally, but looking at Shiro who was staring at him, he abandoned the idea.

He could, but aimlessly killing a weak guy like that held no point except of making an example out of him and showing his strength, which he already did.

At least he hoped he did.

Though it wouldn't weigh down his inexistent heart if he were to kill a few more. In fact, his instincts would reward him for doing as such.

And soon enough, they arrived at the house of the representative.

And waiting outside the door was a man with two axes in his hand, someone else with a herding staff, and lastly, a girl wearing a white wooden mask with behind her few fluffy tails dancing.

"Maxxren...what is this?" The man with the two axes said as he started at him with a frown.

Maxxren put on an anxious face as he peaked at Danzel before speaking up.

"H-He is Harsch Death... and came to pick the items that we stole from "that" village."

Xesan, looked at his friend as he became insane.

"Is he the one who blew up the gate?" Xesan asked as he looked at Danzel, ready to fight.

"Is he the representative of your village?" Danzel spoke as he stepped up.

"N-No, he is-"

"Then there is no need of him." He spoke with a dead cold tone.

And suddenly, Xesan's body became stiff in whole instances, he let go of his two axes and fell to the ground would touching his chest, unable to breathe, or scream in pain.

But death hasn't claimed him.

Yet.

Closing his hand, an ethereal dark green skeleton hand appeared and pierced (not physically) through Xesan's chest, before the hand raising the suffering man.

Swinging his hand to the left, Xesan body was thrown to the sight and a dark green light came out of his body and traveled towards Danzel to his palm.

Where the light was absorbed.

"Now with one thief less...who of you two is the one who leads this place?"

Ignoring Maxxren who was shaking and Shiro who was staring at him behind her mask, Danzel let loose his death aura on them.

The man with the hearing staff and the masked girl frowned at the aura.

And the girl stepped towards such an aura of death.

"I am the one who guides the village of Vashara... they are more, but I hold the highest standing." The masked girl stared at Danzel in waiting.

Though were it because of her mask not showing it or Danzel not carrying to introduce himself, Danzel simply nodded.

"That's good enough. You people have destroyed my creations and stolen their possession, I want them returned. Be it by complaint or by force, doesn't matter to me. Pick whichever you prefer, mortal."

Once again, the 3 of them frowned at the such statement.

Though he worded it like they had a choice, the truth was far from it.

In short, it was either give in or die.

There was no choice, to begin with.

"It seems like there must be a misunderstanding between you and our village, though we don't have all in one place, I have one of them inside my house...as for the others, they must be with the others." The masked girl said with a soft voice.

"Hey, Rue...can you understand what that lady with a mask is saying?" Shiro asked confused as she pointed her finger toward the girl.

"What do you mean?" Hearing such a question, Danzel looked at Shiro in confusion.

"I can't understand what she is saying..."

"You can't...?"

Danzel would have frowned if he could.

But as he had to deal with those in front of him, he pushed the matter for later.

"Let's talk about that later once I am done with them..." Danzel said, making the frowns of the people here grow stronger.

"You can't kill them! We came here for information! Not slaughter!" Shiro yelled at him.

"I will see what I can do..." Danzel said as his gaze landed on the confused people.

'They neither can't understand?' He thought before shaking his head internally.

"Bring me first to the weapons, afterwards we can have a more detailed conversation with all of you leaders together."

Of course, his words implied that he wasn't going to leave after getting the weapons of the Draugrs.

Maxxren gave the masked girl a worried look.

"Of course, let me lead you to one of them." The masked girl's voice was still soft, hiding any worry or malice.

Opening the door, the man with the herding staff and the girl entered the house.

Danzel looked behind him, specifically at the Draugrs that he brought with him.

"You all, stand behind and await my return, also watch over this guy." His cold voice said as he pointed at Maxxren.

Without waiting for their answer, Danzel entered the house with Shiro.

"I usually don't have many guests, so I apologize if it's a bit messy..." The masked girl said as the man with the staff walked towards the table, where the Overseer's sword was at.

"Is this the one...dear guest?" The man said as he hugged the sword into his embrace and walked like an old man toward Danzel.

"Hand it over..." Danzel said as he stretched his arm to the man."

The man who walked like someone with back pain moved slowly with the support of his staff making the constant sound of

*Tick, Tick, Tick.

And once he was a few meters away from Danzel, the man just happend to miss-step and fall towards the ground with the sword thrown at Danzel.

Danzel reached out to grab the Overseer swords before they fell, but in the next instance, a burst of mana came out of the man and pushed the wind away.

Before he was about to fall, the man somehow managed to get his footing before pooling at his herding staff.

And like a scabbard of a hidden blade, the wood was pulled away, revealing a spike of ice with dark veins inside.

His arm moved at extreme speed with the use of one skill of the man as he trusted that spike of ice towards Danzel's skull.

Aiming to destroy the cursed warrior in front of him once and for all.
