As we walked I had Jeeves hand me a mirror. I was 3 feet tall and had a tail. The tail was maybe half my height and ended in a small sharp edge. I had a few scales on forearms and legs that offered better protection. My face was pretty human from what I had seen. I had black hair that barely went past my ears.
After I finished checking myself out I started evaluating how useful my troops were. I had 500 undead soldiers now but they were all weak. Gur was still around but we couldn’t solely depend on him. I could go with the numbers strategy but that wouldn't help. We would be killed in a battle where the enemy also had large numbers.
I decided it was time to look through my spells. Instead of summoning undead I focused on finding something that could personally help me. I found 2 that could work. Hellfire the ability to conjure up green flames. The more mana you put into the spell the bigger the amount of flames is. The other spell was bone manipulation. I could basically turn my undead into weapons. Unfortunately that required a lot of technique and focus for the better weapons.
With these two new spells I set out to conquer another town. I had found an interesting new undead I wanted to test out. I tried my best evil cackle as we walked towards a mountain town in the distance. Then I had a sudden thought. I needed a name! I quickly started thinking and came up with Bax. It was time for my name to cause terror everywhere.
Onyx’s POV
Humans would pay, they would all die. I had always blamed them after the death of my children but why. Why had I never blamed myself? I ordered all Dagoon expansion to stop. I didn't have to be the villain in this story. I had great amounts of power and why use it to kill good people.
With this in mind I set out. For a month I walked to the capital. I slept in ditches and ate rats to keep myself alive and moving. After weeks of walking I made it to the capital.
I waited until night then printed on the rooftops. I started heading for the palace when a guard spotted me. I lunged at him slamming him into a wall. He crumpled to the ground alive but unconscious. I quickly scrambled back onto the rooftops and kept going. I reached the palace after knocking out 58 guards.
I walked into the king's bedroom. I found it by finding the biggest bedroom that had a golden crown symbol on it. Inside a young man barely 21 slept. I waited by the bed and as the sun started to rise she got up and yawned. Mid yawn he noticed me and let out a very shrill noise that didn't suit a king.
I tried sending him a message through my mind and was surprised to find out it worked. I had been prepared to act out what I wanted.”Human, I have come here to negotiate a peace treaty.” He stared at me as I said this but quickly slipped into a more regal pose. “Creature, I will negotiate with you in ten minutes. Please wait in the throne room.
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
I was escorted by 30 knights, all of them had blades pointed directly at my neck. The human king entered the grandiose throne room and sat on his throne. “Monster who has killed almost 15000 of my people tells me why I shouldn't kill you right now.”
I said “If you do 7000 monsters will come charging in and will do their best to kill you all. I simply want a peace treaty. I have seen what my actions have done and would like to repent for my sins. I will join in an alliance with your kingdom and help defend you from war. In exchange I want all the territory I have already taken. A few villages and one fortress city.”
The king looked at me like I was crazy but then started laughing. “Deal monster, you will help fight our battles and in exchange can keep your land.” I smiled at this and walked away. When I left the throne room I slumped to the ground and sighed. My children were safe. We no longer had to fight a war.
Bax’s POV
Vampires are interesting, they have to drink blood to survive but are seen as elegant and noble by most. I stared at my new vampire surrounded by a pond of blood. Creating a vampire was simple. You just had to cover a single body with the blood of a hundred bodies. It took a month to kidnap all the random people but we had done it.
Vlad the vampire sat on his little throne looking at me with reverence. I had ordered him to start a group of cultists. It was my master plan for fun. I would create undead and evil people and have them make humans fight each other.
Vlad already had a small group of ten bandits that had devoted their lives to him. They acted like real people at dawn but once night hit they would sometimes kidnap someone and let Vlad suck them dry.
I had taken an old crumbling castle as my base and made a throne for Vlad. He had his own abandoned church as a base but he still liked to hang out with me. He also liked chess so we frequently played.
“My lord, I'm afraid I have bad news to give you. One of my cultists went a bit too fervently about his task. He had murdered 6 people already.” I looked at Vlad and moved my knight before speaking “I think it is about time you punish this human. You have others and I'm sure they will take their tasks more seriously if you kill this rebel.” I grabbed a cookie and started chowing down. “I understand that my lord but I think it would be better to have him directly serve us.”
I looked at Vlad before smiling. “Yes it would be nice to have him work here. Test subjects are always nice, and there is this undead I want to try.” I did my evil cackle which was very good because I had already practiced it multiple times. It was time to murder humans.
I had the human report to my throne room. He looked smug when he walked in making me think he had been lied to. I didn't even speak to him. I was standing on two chairs next to the doorway and when he walked I slammed him over the head with a femur. He fell to the ground and was carried away by a few skeletons.
I started casting the spell. The mana cost was high but I could afford it. After 30 minutes of casting a Wight appeared before me. A murderous slightly intelligent undead. I ordered him to go around the city and kill as many guardsmen as he could without being seen. Humans were so funny when they died.
