A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 219: Box-1

"Then he found out about me, heard rumors about me and his hope ignited. He lured me here, and was going to use me as an offering. I am quite impressed by his guts"

"He wanted to use me to chain the guardian spirit powers so he can force her to accept his sister's soul in your body and acknowledge it as if it was you, only then his sister will ever come to life. Of course, he also had a backup. It was to make me perform necromancy and kill you to bring his sister to life, after all a life is only worth another life. But this type of magic is dark magic and if done wrong, I would have ended up dead alongside you"

"If you were aware that you were lured out, why did you come here? You had a chance, but you didn't run away" she said as a matter of fact.

However,

Desella turned furious.

"You had a chance to save your ass, but you didn't? Oh, how noble of you" She taunted him.

"When have I ever left anyone to lurch?" He replied back softly which made her tongue-tied.

It was true, he never left anyone to fend themselves in case of emergencies.

"I had my reasons"

"I bet it was for guardian spirit power. Too bad, only I can have it" She spat smugly.

Right now, not only Desella but even Vlass was fed up with her cocky attitude. He was shocked how Severus was so quiet.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Severus laughed.

It was a laugh filled with iciness, even Moon shuddered when she saw him like that.

"Oh my! I was never here for guardian spirit power but something else. As for your so-called power. Hear me," His expressions turned serious.

"In your greed for power, both you and Minya overlooked a fact."

"You all depended on guardian spirit powers but not once you ever thought whether the spirit itself agrees with you or not. Minya's father plotted against her, which turned her against humanity. Then Minya subdued her for two decades."

"Didn't it ever occurred to you that the spirit might be furious, or you both just thought it was a mere tool for you, to get what you desire"

Severus looked at her for a long time, but she didn't say a word.

"I guess, I know the answer"

"It's time for you to end this petty life Moon and be at peace" Severus gently stroked her cheeks.

"What"

"NoYou can't kill."

She coughed out blood as a deep pain pierced through her body from her heart.

"me" she whispered the last words of her lifetime.

She died in cold blood

Desella and Vlass stood there, wrapping their heads at the current situation. No one expected Severus to kill the girl in such a fashion. It was .so gentle.

The girl's head was still on Severus' hand, which he gently put down.

Out of nowhere, he brought out a paper and ignited it. The paper burned and soon turned into ashes, while Severus continued speaking some sacred chants.

Nothing seemed out of place except the sudden drop in temperature.

Ughh.

A girl groaned in pain.

"This sucks." These were her first words.

Severus opened his eyes and smiled brightly at her.

"Welcome back"

Everyone inside the dungeon except two of them turned ghastly pale.

This. was this reincarnation?

Or is it her ghost?

This was bizarre.

The girl who just died moments ago, she is now alive.

"Un chain her and come to the meeting half an hour later"

He turned around.

"You, join it too"

Huh.

"I too"

However, he didn't give a reply and went back.  No matter how weird it was, if Severus had forgiven her and there was no need for Desella to be hostile towards her, she certainly wasn't friendly with her either.

It was Vlass, who managed everything afterwards.

--

Inside a meeting room,

Desella stomped inside when she saw Severus sitting there quietly with his eyes closed.

"" EXPLAINNNN"

"Let everyone come," he said simply.

Minutes later, Uze and Rze entered followed by Moon and Vlass.

"Since everyone is here, lets; start the meeting," Severus said.

Pointing towards Moon, he introduced her. "Everyone, she isn't the one who we know."

Everyone was visibly confused by his sentence.

"She isn't Moon but Zhi, the little sister of the previous king of Znye kingdom akaMinya's little sister"

Shocked!

Everyone was shocked.

"Impossible"

"Didn't you burn the corpse of Miss Zhi?" It was Rze who asked the question. Again, everyone turned towards Severus for an explanation.

"It is true that this body is of moon but the soul inside it belongs to Zhi. I called everyone here to announce that" He took a pause

From now on, Zhi will be your queen, not a crown princess but a queen" His said absolutely.

Even Zhi was shocked and stared at Severus.

"What?"

"Did you think I just brought you back to life so you can enjoy it?"

"Dream on. Share some burden with me" He joked.

"But."

"Hmmm?"

"I am not really suitable for it" She voiced out her doubts. To which even Uze and Rze nodded their heads.

"Surely you didn't think I would help the Znye kingdom and be its monarch. Even if you thought about it, let me tell you, IT'S A BIG NO"

"It's your kingdom, and you are responsible for it."

"Not me, not anyone else" Severus said what was on his mind.

Both Rze and Uze were embarrassed because they both had such thoughts.

"With 12 knights helping you, Miss Zhi, I don't think running a kingdom will be a problem for you," Severus encouraged her.

Since the situation has come to this, there was not much choice for Zhi. She reluctantly accepted it.

"Alright"

"So, since everything is settled, shall we head home Severus?" Vlass asked in anticipation.

"No"

This dampened his mood but cheered Zhi's mood.

"There is one more thing that I have to tell you all. I will be heading out for a few days. Don't ask me where I am going and why I am going. Just remember that I will come back soon. Till then, Vlass, you head back to Rivera and Desella, I request you to put your abilities to use here and help miss Zhi, to take over the kingdom swiftly"

"As for you lot" He sharply gazed at 12 knights.
