Lv1 Skeleton

Chapter 152

“Alpeon, don’t let anyone leave the confines of the Pit.”

‘Yes Lord.’

I materialized my metal disk and flew over the cliff.

“Last time I went into battle with Valenor, but now I’m all alone.”

A cloud of dust gathered in the distance and huge dragons appeared in the horizon above it.

“Tch! Just why did she have to ask me to go easy on Noradriana and here silly dragons?”

I hovered on my metal disk, awaiting the arrival of the Elves and Dragons in the middle of the plains.

Half a day later the host of 10,000 Elves and the dragons stopped their advance before me.

“Lena, could you amplify my voice please?”

“Okay, I can set so that the animals near us can hear you well.”

“Animal? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha you can truly make some funny jokes!!!”

A booming laughter was rang across the plains at an incredibly high volume, causing the Elves to drop to the ground and hold their ears in pain.

“Sorry, didn’t mean to disturb you all.”

Lena adjusted the volume to a more reasonable level and I was heard without any problems. Perhaps the previous outburst was one of Lena’s little jokes, but at least it managed to get everyone’s attention.

“I’m glad you’ve all come today, but I can’t say I appreciate the hostility shown. In light of that, I’d like to show you all a little something… Up!”

At once the ten thousand Elves and Dragons began to float into the air.

Although I had handed over most of my powers to Gaia, Odin and Skyfather, my connection to the Sephiroth network still existed.

For the Elves, the one hundred meters height was already quite a danger to them if they were to fall, as for the dragons, despite trying to resist with their magic, it was all for naught because it was blocked by the Sephiroth network.

“Well hopefully that has made you all a bit more humble, now all you should go back home, except for Noradriana that is. Okay, the Elven elders may come over as well. I have a certain debt to repay, so I won’t be killing you, alright?”

The army before me was forced into subservience due to my overwhelming power, since they had no way of resisting ym magic and couldn’t wield their own.

“Okay, I’ll put you down slowly now.”

I used the Sephiroth network to set them down gently.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Noradriana then approached me along with the Elven elders. Although her body language was once of submission, a glint in her eyes told me otherwise.

“Hopefully I can bring her down a notch without hurting her too much.”

As expected, once she was close enough she chose to test whether I could defend against her physical prowess and she opened her jaws and tried to bite me.

Quazic

I summoned my Rohim’s Shield up in time and her teeth broke as a result of it.

“I’m sorry about that… I was trying to be gentle but I can’t be blamed for self defense, right?”

‘Give her some new teeth, Johra. I know your creation magic can do that much, right?’

Gaia’s voice appeared in my mind.

‘Tch! So she’s been watching this whole time.’

Noradriana backed away from me and stared at me in fear.

“Material Creation!”

I recreated her broken teeth. It was made to be sturdier than her previous ones and shone with a golden hue.

“Hey Noradriana, stop that we aren’t enemies. Just listen to me, ok?”

Although I had never particularly liked her, she had saved my life way back then, So I had to compensate her in some form.

The Elder green dragon bowed down to me in complete defeat, and the Elven elders beside her likewise prostrated themselves before me.

“You Elves have been defeated and as such need to follow my commands. I want you to move your people to these plains within the next six months! Noradriana, I order you to help the Elven race and as compensation to cover the cost of your march, I give you this! Material Creation!”

I created several tons of gold.

“Do not continue even think of backing out of this, anyone who betrays me will be dealt with swiftly.”

Turning my back to them I flew back to the Pit.

“Alpeon, how has the digging been going?”

‘It hasn’t been easy due to the presence of the Void Scuttles, but we are currently up to 900 meters deep.

“I see, keep up the good work.”

‘Lord, the Asmodians are arriving soon.’

“I’m aware, accommodate them in the dwellings we’ve constructed on the outskirts.

‘Yes lord.’

The Asmodians had come to join me, it meant that it was soon time to kill the Devil King, but I didn’t want to have to do everything myself.’

‘Well, maybe now that he won’t have the help of the Reincarnators he’ll stay hidden instead.’

“Oh right! Alpeon have them bring Talvin’s body to the lake.”

Shortly after I was able to use his body to resurrect Talvin, as a reward for his performance in his past life.

Six months later the Elves and Asmodians were sent back to their homelands in Elfenheim and Evelisla and my troubles had all been resolved in a peaceful manner.

“Oh, I almost forgot that there was a task to help out Gartmar. Alpeon, fetch me Ian.”

A short while later Ian appeared before me. Maybe it was because of the peaceful lifestyle, but she appeared somewhat fatter than she did in my memories.

“Did you call for me, my lord?”

“Just call me Johra.”

Ian felt quite nervous seeing me wear some unusual clothes.

“Let’s see, Lena, can you please contact Makina and have transfer over her former colleagues here?”

“On it!”

Shortly after Ian’s old party members appeared next to her.

“Gillian? Pirate? Melinda?”

“Oh where is this place?”

“I thought I was dead for sure.”

They all embraced themselves, ecstatic about their reunion.

“I know you’re all happy but I’d like for you all to pay attention please.”

“Where you the one who saved us?”

“That’s right Melinda, this is my Lord.”

Following Ian’s explanation they all looked up and stared at me intently.

“Well I didn’t exactly save you all for free. I have a favor to ask of you.”

For the next several months I had the training and levelling up against the Void Scuttles down in the tunnels beneath the Pit, until they had become much stronger.

“Good, now please heat to Gartmar and help out a certain party of women called Kishande, Ashe and Miranda.”

I gave them some pocket money and set them on this task as a manner of settling old debts.

“That should solve most things, right?”

The majority of the Elves had returned to their homeland, only a few staying behind to act as intermediaries as well as set up a trading post between us.

I would also occasionally need to send in some elite troops to cull the number of Scuttles near Elfenheim or to defend from the Trons in Evelisla.

Until finally one day.
