Boy, are you awake?
The armored undead spoke, and his voice was like rolling array thunder.
Ace's limbs were still dull and stiff, but he still gave a knight's ceremony.
...The night on the dead is particularly cold.
A sentence without beginning or end.
But Ace heard the true meaning of this sentence.
He shook his head: Thank you for your concern, I can still hold on....This place is called a dead place?
No, this place doesn't have a name.
……Yeah?
Boy, what's your name?
Before asking someone else’s name, it is the etiquette of a knight, right?
Haha, you're right.The leader of the undead was not angry. He understood that the boy in front of him did not have the fear that ordinary people should have when they met them, nor did he have the vigilance and alertness that ordinary people should have when they met them. The boy was indifferent, and he was talking to him normally as if he was chatting about family matters.
I am Adrian von Bismarck.Adrian, the leader of the undead, was even more certain that Ace was the one they were waiting for: You guessed it right, I am the seventeenth Sun Knight of the Empire.
( ̄□ ̄;)Shrimp?
Ace's eyes widened slightly.
Haha, was you surprised?...That's right, who can tell that I was the sun of the empire?
The mutated face could no longer tell any emotions, but Adrian's tone contained a small feeling.
After the initial surprise, Ace quickly calmed down.
Can you meet your ex in this way?!
The seventeenth term... Ace thought about it. He was the 25th Sun Knight, and each term was thirty years old. He was no longer a hundred years ago...
My name is Ace, Ace Kesno.
For some reason, Ace did not say he was a candidate for the Sun Knight.
Kesno?Adrian seemed to have some understanding of Ace's family: he was just an emerging aristocrat back then... now he was at least an earl, right?
Already the Duke.
Oh.The chuckle didn't sound joy or anger.Since you are a noble child, why do you appear here?
Of course, there is a reason for the incident....Mr. Adrian might as well tell me the purpose of the visit, and I will be spared if I have any extras.
...Adrian changed his topic and followed Ace's wishes: We need you to help.
really.
Please say.
We long to return to death.
……
Ace almost blurted out. Are you dead? I felt it was inevitable that you were a little rude. He wandered around in his throat several times and was swallowed back.
Although Ace did not show his face, Adrian seemed to know what he was thinking, and raised his right hand that showed his bones and waved it, pointing at himself: We still exist in this form...
……
Ace understood.
Too long...We've lived in this form for too long.Adrian began to speak slowly.
The first person to become the dead was Adrian, which happened hundreds of years ago.Adrian can't remember the exact time.
He died in the last year of his term, and he was still half a year away from resigning from office to live a leisurely retirement life, but he died on the battlefield because the Empire and the Federation suddenly started war.
It was nothing at all, it was impossible to end with hatred. At worst, it was the matter of dust returning to dust and soil returning to soil.
But Adrian remembers that he was clearly shot dead by an arrow on the battlefield, but he woke up thousands of miles away.
I don't know how he transferred it.
Why he became the dead is unclear.
Regaining consciousness, he climbed out of the land.
Yes, after waking up, he found himself buried in the soil.
But he didn't feel uncomfortable, but he felt very warm and had no difficulty breathing.
It wasn't long before he realized that he didn't need to breathe anymore.
Climbing out of the land, Adrian fell into a period of confusion.
At that time, there was nothing in the dead place, only the endless earth and stones.The traces of the monsters were gone.
Adrian lingers for a long time, he doesn't eat, drink, or breathe. Whenever the sky shows whiteness, he feels tired, so he returns to the ground.
At night, he will wake up again.
At first, he was surprised.Although it is in the form of a monster, he feels everything that he cannot perceive after his death.
Soon, he felt tired.
He tried to leave the place, but he felt like he was trapped here by some invisible force.
No matter which direction he goes, he will eventually return here.
About... ten years?Adrian met another undead.
The second undead was named Heath, who was an ordinary priest who could not be more ordinary.
Heath was very panicked about his condition. Adrian explained some things, but he still had many important questions. He was not clear about it.
In this way, the undead huddled in this dead land gradually grew to thousands of scales over time.
The originally yellow land may have to be buried deep in the soil during the day, and gradually turned into the color of their skin.
The monster appeared in this land at some point.
So, it continues to this day.
Even though the number of companions continues to increase, the indescribable voids settle deeper and deeper with time.
Why are they alive?
Why can't you leave here?
Such an ugly form... why does it exist?
Everyone who becomes a dead doesn't know the reason.
Their identities are different, from princes and nobles to ordinary civilians, wizards and swordsmen to thieves, and everything.
Even the countries are different.
Speaking of this, Ace roughly understood the causes and consequences.
But what can he do?
Such long years are meaningless, and we pray for the end.Just as we were gradually despairing, I had a dream.In the dream is Bode, the God of Light, and Hodel, the God of Chaos.
Tong, I have a bad premonition... When Ace heard this, he couldn't help but complain to the system.
The two gods told me in my dream that the young man with black hair and dark eyes can achieve our long-cherished wish.
……
(*⊙~⊙)Tsk, there are all God’s revelations. Are there any magical weapons and weapons to inherit the divine nature and then save or destroy the world?
But it’s not right. His mission this time is just to fall in love with Ah (and love and kill each other by the way)!?
Adrian looked at Ace silently.
The god... fell a long time ago.I have learned the history courses in the Magic Academy, and the gods on the mainland fell one after another hundreds of years ago.
There are many different opinions on the reasons, but it is true that people gradually cannot communicate with gods.
The creatures on the continent today have long been accustomed to life without the protection of the gods.Because of the departure of the gods, the church following the gods gradually became declining, and the only church that still retains a certain amount of power is the Church of Light.
Time can slowly heal everything. After the gods disappeared, disputes among the churches were also suspended one after another. The rulers of the empire and the federation took this opportunity to centralize power and suppress the divine rule. The public security after the pain was better.
People gradually forget the gods.
Probably except for the dark elves.
Although the goddess of darkness disappeared, her curse continued.
