Chapter 1 : Defeated

‘Boom!’ ‘Boom!’

Sounds of countless explosions rocked the ghastly castle as minions after undead minions were summoned to fend them off. The fire raged as meteors rained down from above, barraging the castle with it’s fury.

Thunder roared and lightning struck as the elements joined the fray to attack the tall eerie castle. Countless enemies besieged the castle as inside the throne room, a skeleton in golden robes laid on it’s knees exhausted, wrapped up in gold chains.

The skeleton had blue glowing orbs of fire in his eyes. He was adorned in golden robes which were full of holes. By his side was a golden bone staff with countless chip marks and scratches. Although it looked worn out and old, it still had an aura of a godly weapon. Made from the bones of an ancient one, it was impossible for such a weapon to take heavy damage.

Countless undead minions kept crawling out the ground and defended the castle from the invaders, but it was useless, the great death lord was defeated. The united forces of the world had came together to defeat the greatest evil known in all of history. In front of the undead death lord were 5 heroic figures.

One was a male lion beastman. He had a striking red mane and a burly body. His body with rippling muscles had countless wounds from the fight. In his hand was an imposing polearm. However, he could not move nor think, his eyes were closed and his heartbeat was almost still. This was because he was encased in neverwind ice, ice that was almost impossible to melt, it would take at least a few thousand years to thaw.

The second figure was an female elf. She was the queen of the elves and had very strong magic powers. She had long flowing silver hair with pointy tipped ear. Her staff was in pieces, shatter from our fight. She could barely stand properly with her legs wobbling. Her clothes in tatters but she was too busy focusing on death lord to pay attention to that. She was out of mana and could barely stand up.

Third was a male torren. He was 2.3 meters tall and like the beastman, he had the body of a well seasoned warrior. His armour was had plenty of holes and his sword was broken in half. His flaming hands that summoned infernals were extinguished. He had no hair on his head due to his race tradition. On his forehead had 3 red stars, marking him as the strongest Torren. He was currently squirming on the ground due to the curse placed onto him by the death lord.

A horrible 10 circle curse spell which inflicts him with the desire to kill those closest to him. Though he did not know what the curse was doing, he was still trying his best to resist it.

Fourth was a female human. She was a dragon warrior, someone who made a pact with a dragon to use their power. She was encased in an mana armour that was designed like a dragon. Her helmet was a black and gold dragon head and her armour had black dragon scales with gold lacing all over it. In her hands were 2 red single edged swords. She was on lying on the floor with both her legs broken and bleeding out profusely.

The last was a male human. He was a handsome young man. Though don’t let that fool you. Even though he looked young, he was a few hundred years old. He had used time magic to stall his time, so that he could look younger forever.

He had blond hair and his piercing blue eyes glared at me. He was in a golden white robe and had a staff with 5 glowing coloured balls floating around it. Although he looked fine, one could definitely tell that he was low on mana. However that was enough to finish the death lord is his weaken and chained state. Out of the 5 of them, he was the one that had taken the least amount of damage.

“Give up, Kel Kazan, the Death lord! We have defeat all your 7 generals, sealed your 6 horcruxes, destroyed your soul world and you have no mana left to fight! You have no escape! You reign of terror is over!” The time wizard yelled triumphantly as he waved his staff.

Kel Kazan laid on his knees wrapped up in chains in agony as the chains wrapped up tighter and tighter around him, slowly breaking his skeleton body into pieces. The death lord was finally defeated.

The great 7 generals of the death lord were killed, leaving Kel Kazan fight off the united forces alone. His 6 horcruxes were sealed, stopping the death lord from being able to revive. Furthermore the abyss had forsaken him. Causing him to no longer be able to draw mana from the abyss. The death lord didn’t know how he should have felt.

Am i supposed to be happy that i am finally free from the controls of the abyss and have my free will again or am i supposed to be sad that my source of power had left me, turning me into a mortal that could be killed after being used as it’s pawn for years?

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

The abyss have been controlling me for so many years, it provided me with strength and turned me into an undead. I could not control my actions and had to carry out its order to take over the world and turn everything into the undead. But now, i am finally free from its control.

The united forces of the world had banded together to get rid of me, using their combined power to defeat me. As i was getting defeated, the abyss left me. After using me for hundreds of years as it’s pawn, it discarded me like a broken toy. Damn you! If i ever get the chance to out of this situation alive, pray abyss, pray that you should have never angered me!

The death lord had been under the control of the abyss for years ever since his fall. Under its control the death lord had caused chaos to fall upon the land of Lordran. Counties cities and kingdoms had fallen under the march of the dead. Under the abyss’s control the death lord sins were plenty and the hatred the people felt was not easily going to go away.

Thus after the abyss left and abandoned the death lord, there was nothing he could do to stop them from killing him. In the end he was still the undead death lord who had caused the sufferings of millions. The hatred of the people would not disappear and his sins would not be forgiven so easily.

My armies would not be stopped unless i’m dead and even if i tell them i won’t try to take over the world, who would believe me?

Thus the situation appeared before him. The greatest heroes of the world from all different races banded together to face him. They killed all his 7 generals and sealed all his horcruxes, while he encased one of them in ice that would take thousands of years to melt, cursed one of them to kill their close ones and destroyed the elf queen staff of the ancient tree.

Even his most powerful ability was thwarted. His soul world manifestation had been destroyed and conquered.

A soul world was something only a lv200 being could use. It requires a lot of mana and was extremely powerful. It turned the surrounding into the greatest desires and wishes of the user. Each soul world was different as each person had different desires.

The death lord soul word manifestation was to turn his surrounding into his home where all his allies would revive. His soul world had summoned back his 7 generals back to life but they were still defeated. With the combined effort of all the living races, the 5 heroes had managed to defeat all 7 generals twice.

“Hahaha! To think all four races had managed to work together peacefully to attack me. Now, tell me how did you do it? Beastmen and elves working together with humans. Torrens leaving their nomadic ways to join a war. Am i really such a big threat that all the 4 races had to band together to defeat me? Hahaha!” Kel Kazan chuckled as he faced his death.

He was surprised that the four races had managed to stop fighting between themselves and band together to fight him. Normally the beastmen, elves and Torrens hated the humans. Humans who believed that all other races were inferior had always used them as slaves. The humans would enter the forest homes of the elves and capture the young pretty elves who were alone as slaves. Beastmen were at war with the humans and the humans would use the prisoners of war as slaves.

Due to the delicate and exotic looks of the female beastmen and elves, they were always used as sex slaves for those with exquisite taste. While the Torrens would be used as slaves for labour due to their immense size and strength.

The Torrens were usually 2 meters tall and had very high strength. They were a few times stronger than an average human. With the figure, they were highly fought for as labourers.

Thus it seemed almost impossible for them to be able to put aside their differences and worked together. It was only the threat of world turning into the land of the dead that forced them to worked together.

“Arrg!” He screamed as the bonds got tighter and tighter, his skeleton body cracking. Soon, the bonds got so tight that his magical ability to hear and see as a skeleton stopped working.

The time wizard getting older and older as he poured more mana into the bindings. His power was weakening. The time wizard moved his mouth but the death lord could not hear most of it.

The only thing he could make out was the time wizard thanking him for uniting the world against a common foe.

Slowly, the sides started to squeeze with sparks of lightning shocking and chirping constantly.

Arrh! He screamed as the confinement got smaller and smaller squeezing him to death.

Am i going to die?

Noo! I don’t want to die yet! I still need to take my revenge against the abyss!

I can’t die yet!

The death lord continued to struggle as hard as he could against the bonds but it was no use, he could not escape. The chains of time that was holding him down was a 10th circle spell. In his weakened state, Kel Kazan had no way of escaping.

Dammit! I don’t have enough mana to make another horcrux now. Dammit, looks like i have to use my split my soul even further and use my life force to create another horcrux. Though this is risky and dangerous, there’s no other choice other than dying a miserable death!

With grim determination, he started to pour all his life force into a rusty silver ring with a water droplet insignia he had in his dimensional storage. As it was the only thing that would go unnoticed if they check.

Soon his life force began to drop. It kept dropping and dropping as he tried to separate his soul for the last time. He felt intense soul burning pain as his soul stretched and split apart.

Normally, it would require a few thousand souls to be sacrificed and a few years worth of mana to create a horcrux. However, right now Kel Kazan had no mana left, thus he had to use his life force to do it.

I don’t know what would happen if i were to use all my life force, but i have to try it. I have no other choice if i want a chance to live and achieve my dreams.

His body crumbled into pieces as the bindings got even smaller and tighter. His skeleton body had many of it’s bone destroyed and his bony limbs were already turned to powered. His ribcage had multiple fractures and was in broken fragments. His lower body was already obliterated.

Soon the soul burning pain subsided as the death lord felt his conscious leave him.

Did i make make it? If i did make it, may my soul take over the body of the person who dare put on my ring. No matter how many years it take, anyone who's soul is weaker than me will be taken over by my ring….
