Demonic Skeleton God-Chapter 76: The Alliance

Itai and Flor arrived at the villa. "So this is where you live? I have to say, pretty luxurious for someone who’s only Stage 2," said Flor.

Around Flor, many undead were training in the villa. Itai had no reason to hide it, he knew Flor was aware he was a necromancer anyway.

"So you’re training them here, pretty risky but also intelligent. Anyway, how many undeath Stage 2 do you have?" asked Flor.

"Eight. 5 skeleton-type and 3 zombie-type," said Itai.

"8? That’s a lot for a necromancer who’s only Stage 2. Where did you get Stage 2 necromantic spells for both zombie and skeleton?" said Flor and stared at them.

Itai had the Glove of the God of Death, so he didn’t need to deal with such things.

"Well, sorry but I won’t tell you that just to be safe, we’re not allies yet," said Itai. He definitely didn’t plan to tell him about the Glove of the God of Death now.

"I understand. That ally of yours probably just broke through to Early Stage 3, because I don’t feel any Peak Stage 2 here," said Flor.

Then they reached the hatch to Flain’s basement. Itai opened it. Flain noticed it immediately and recalled Aran into his soul just to be sure.

’My king, is something happening?’ asked Aran.

’Be ready to attack,’ replied Flain.

Itai and Flor entered the basement. "Completely empty? Looks more like a prison than a room where a normal person would live," said Flor in an amused tone.

Then his eyes focused on Flain and his smile widened even more. He walked up to him and extended his hand.

"I’m Flor Wahraid, nice to meet you," said Flor.

Flain expected it would be Flor. Itai had told him everything he knew about him, including his Stage. But it’s always better to consider other possibilities just to be safe.

Either way, Flain didn’t understand why he brought him here. Flain had told him not to let anyone in here, not even his friends. It could cause unnecessary problems.

"Nice to meet you too, I’m Flain," said Flain, and they shook hands.

"Looks like you recently reached Stage 3, congratulations," said Flor. freёweɓnovel_com

"What brings you here?" asked Flain.

"I just wanted to discuss something with you. But I see you don’t have any seating here, so I’ll have to make some," said Flor.

Suddenly, icy chairs appeared beside Flain and Flor, and they sat down.

"So, can I ask you what your dream is?" asked Flor.

"Revenge." Flain’s friendly tone disappeared.

"Revenge? That’s a much darker dream than your ally’s. And what if I told you I could help you achieve your dream?" said Flor.

This piqued Flain’s interest. He didn’t know what this noble would offer him, but he doubted he could truly fulfill his dream.

"Get to the point," said Flain.

Then Flor told him exactly what he had told Itai.

"And why should I believe you?" asked Flain.

"You think I made all this up just to lie? And what would I even gain from that? Arrest someone for rebellion? If I wanted to, I could kill you both on the spot and maybe damage some relationships because I killed a potential future talent of Itai’s, but that’s all," said Flor. His voice was persuasive and charismatic.

Flain was thinking that if he accepted his conditions, he might gain a rather powerful ally in the future.

"Alright, but I have three conditions. The first is that we don’t have to follow your orders to the letter; we can decide not to do something. The second is that we can leave the Empire of Light as long as we’re not needed there. And the third is that we help each other mutually, not just us helping you." Flain said with a smirk.

"I accept," Flor said after a moment.

"Alright, so now let’s tell each other our abilities. I’ll start, I have a rather fast combat style combined with the use of ice magic," said Flor.

"I have a fast yet very aggressive combat style using different kinds of magic and techniques. I’m a basic Spell Mastr," said Flain.

Just to be safe, he didn’t mention Lord of Souls because it could raise suspicion in Flor that he might also want to enslave him. When he trusts him more, maybe he’ll tell him one day.

"Wait, you’re a Spell Mastr? And where did you get those skills and techniques?" Flor asked.

Flain definitely didn’t plan to tell him that the system gives them to him or anything about his immortality. Flain took off his helmet and showed his bony face.

"As you can see, I’m a Spine Stalker, which I evolved into a short while ago. I’m also Itai’s first resurrected undeath. Even when he brought me back at Stage 1, I had the same intelligence as now as an ordinary skeleton."

"Gradually, as I grew stronger, I started learning different spells out of nowhere — I just suddenly knew them," Flain finished.

"I can confirm that," said Itai.

Flor’s face brightened even more. "I suspected you were Itai’s undeath from the very beginning, but a few things held me back. The first was your intelligence. Stage 3 undeath are indeed intelligent, but absolutely not to the level you are. The second reason was that you have a dream; undeath resurrected by a necromancer usually dream of fulfilling their master’s tasks."

"And the third is that a Necromancer cannot have an undeath at a higher Stage than himself. If a skeleton is at Peak Stage 2 and his necromancer is also at Stage 2, then his body stops absorbing mana from anywhere," Flor explained.

"For these reasons, I believe you. Without them, that fact would seem unrealistic to me. Anyway, the art of the Spell Master comes in very handy." said Flor.

"Tell me, who are you really? This is not the mind of a 17-year-old noble," Flain asked.

"Ah, I see you figured it out. I’m not really who I appear to be. But I won’t tell you more about that. Now it’s Itai’s turn," said Flor, and not even once did that smile on his face falter.

Flain had already assumed this when Flor presented his proposal. That definitely wasn’t the mind of a 17-year-old noble. And when he explained his analysis, Flain was 100% certain.

"I’m primarily a necromancer who has only one skill for offense. I have a special glove that gives me unlimited undeath capacity, grants me double mana. I also don’t need any spell to summon; with this glove, I can resurrect any undeath without needing the required spell. I also have another spell that allows me to hide my undead army underground," Itai decided to say...
