A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 198: Language of dead

"I have enough of you. Just get the hell up from me, you little rascal sister of Minya" Severus screamed on top of his lungs with his remaining strength. It was hard. His throat was burning. The pain was similar to being crushed under several heavy boulders. Even the simple task of being breathing felt impossible. 

The dead lady movements halted when Severus screamed Minya's name. It was just a fluke, but it worked in his favor. Since he was unaware of her name, he could only shout the names of people close to her. Luckily the siblings seemed to have a special bond. He took the advantage of the situation and immediately pushed her aside, tumbling on the other side.

Aaah!

Severus groaned in pain. All those sticky liquids caused a burning sensation on his flesh but luckily no scar was formed. Eventually, his body was repelling to her liquid. Well, I do a thorough test then it wasn't even a liquid but a special fluid with heavy density. A matrix would be a suitable word for it.

No.

No.

The mummy started screaming. 

Well, there was more to it, but Severus could understand 'No' and 'Minya'. He wondered what she was scared about but he was clueless. He failed to understand her language. 

Cold and slithering, just like whispers coming from pits of hell hole.

Severus inordinately shivered when he heard it. It was more like the language of the dead.

A thought strike Severus.

Could it be Nesseyes?

It was true then Severus need to dig more to uncover the mist from the mystery. 

As he was wondering, Severus noticed that at some point of time the mummy became still.

Tak-Tak

The mummy cracked her neck.

At this moment, the mere amount of fabric that was earlier present was now completely vanished. She was stark naked, but her skin was beyond recognition. Dark like dates, it was as if she was roasted alive and then wrapped in bandages.

Pretty alarming and cruel.

"Get ready to die" To his surprise, she said something in a language which was incomprehensible to him.

But how?

Severus felt a sudden chill in the environment. Cold energy surged inside the room and enveloped everything. Even his word started reacting to the dark energy. 

Well. Technically the sword was excited beyond the limit as she was eating the dark energy as if it was a cake. 

The mummy smirked and in the next second, she came very close to Severus. Just a mere one cm apart. A heavy stench assaulted Severus' nostrils. He wanted to puke then and there but somehow maintained his composure. He raised his sword and slashed her arm as he created some space between them.

"You stink you damn mummy or Minya's baby sister."

Aaaaah!

The mummy went on her knees tightly clutching her head. It was evident that she was in pain, but why? She didn't scream when he slashed her but now went on her knees when he merely addressed her as Minya's sister.

What the f*ck was going on here?

Severus was damn pissed off. 

Something was terribly wrong here.

Severus pointed his sword against her neck and took a defensive stance. He gulped and got readied for his question. He wasn't sure whether this will go smoothly or not, regardless of it he needed to give it a try.

Any information was worth it.

"Who are you?"

".."

He was met with silence.

"How did you die?"

"."

"What happened to you?"

".."

"How did you become like this?"

".."

"Is something the matter?"

".."

No matter what he asked, he was met with silence. Surely, she wasn't in any mood to cooperate.

Sigh!

What a trouble!!!!!

With nothing more to ask Severus used his trump card.

"Do you know Minya?"

Bang on!

He finally got some expressions from her. Something flashed in those scarlet eyes of her.

Once again.

"The crown prince of Znye Kingdom. Do you know him? Are you by any chance related to him?"

"Are you?"

"Do you know anything about his baby sister?"

"Tell me?"

"Do you know anything about the Serpentine Valisoa? Or any cursed spirit?"

Severus asked one question after another without any break in mid.

As per his predictions, he noticed her in a fetus position. A position symbolizing a baby or a state of humans in which he is under terrible scare. But why?

"No"

"No.."

"I know nothing."

She stuttered but continued chanting the same sentences. Soon she turned hysterical. She lunged on Severus and a fierce fight broke. Severus had no option other than to counter. Although he didn't want to track or kill her without getting any answers, but it seems he had no other choice.

Since it was at this stage Severus was bound to kill her. 

She was close to him, very close as he was pinned on the wall while she hovered over him to choke him to death. Geez. this is too carpi to even imagine but here, Severus was experiencing it all. And it was not at all a good feeling. 

"Minya" Severus whispered.

The death grip on his neck was loosened but like earlier Severus didn't run away this time from her hold. Instead, he waited. He waited and observed her. He started in her scarlet eyes. He wanted to find out what exactly was shifting in those two red eyeballs. 

Cold!

Merciless!

Cruel!

Brutal!

Betrayal!

INCEST!

It was all that Severus saw there. Plain bullshit and utter carp. He never imagined encountering such a person. This girl, well a dead corpse here was in agony even after death all because of someone's ambition. 

Her life was slaughtered just because she was a useful tool. Severus felt pity for her.

"I hope you rest in peace" The moment he whispered; he stabbed his word straight in her chest from back. The sword stabbed from her back to her heart. Black blood splurged everywhere. Severus immediately hid behind a shelf to take cover.

Aww, that's disgusting now. Should have died in a neater way.
