The Undead King Arthur thought to activate his domain skill but he does not want to risk the terrain even more. The Undead King Arthur might not be a full fledge demigod as of now but his domain is still from one of the highest gods. 𝑖𝘦.𝑐ℴ𝘮
The terrain will absolutely be affected once the Undead King uses his domain which is why the God of Death explicitly told him to use it only when he is backed into a corner. The Undead King still know that he can win even with the Reaper’s Domain active.
“Release the first seal from the Death God’s Sword of Devotion.” The Undead King Arthur stated and the black blade on his sword suddenly emitted smoke.
The sword that the Undead King is currently wielding has been given to him by the God of Death Abaddon when the covenant was successfully performed. The sword is a divine weapon that the God of Death sent to the Undead King as a token of faith to signify that the latter could be seen as his representative on the mortal plane.
The sword then changed from its pitch black blade to something with a golden outline. The aura that the sword changed entirely as it even made the Reaper take notice. The Reaper then moved from his current location and aimed its scythe towards the Undead King.
Du’an already applied a few buffs on the army and the best buffs towards the Undead King. When the Reaper moved to kill the liches that tried to control it, the Undead King did not even see its movement clearly. Now with Du’an’s buffs, the Undead King could easily follow the Reaper’s movement.
The Undead King did not sit idly by and wait for the scythe of the Reaper to reach him. He met the Reaper mid-air and both their weapons clashed against one another. The golden outline of the Undead King’s sword is not just for show as a wave of sword energy is released with each swing.
The sword energy even passed towards the Reaper which damaged it. The sword of the Undead King became more powerful than its previous iteration. The Reaper did not take getting damaged lightly as it would reappear to a group of undead (mainly the Arch Lich’ army) and reap their souls to restore its health.
The Undead King would always follow it but he just added to the trail of destruction as each step he took will make craters. The Reaper wanted to become more powerful than the Undead King using the individuals it kills but the latter would always damage it to point where it needs a lot of souls just to heal.
The game of cat and mouse between the Reaper and the Undead King became so chaotic that they created distance from the center of the battlefield. The Undead King is keeping pace with the Reaper when the scythe wielding undead demigod suddenly made a sharp left turn and increased its speed to the limit.
The Undead King thought that it was off because the Reaper would use long range attacks to at least try and deter him from chasing but the latter just sped through. The Undead King finally knew why the Reaper suddenly sped up because he sensed it using a skill that he obtained when he was the God of Death’s Champion.
The skill that the Undead King possessed is called Detect Life (Omni). This is one of the prized skills that the God of Death gifts upon his champions in order to serve him better. This skill allows the Undead King to detect all life forms in a radius of three miles from his location. The opposite of this skill is what the Champion of the Goddess of Life possess which is Detect Death (Omni) which detects life forms that are close to death or dying.
The skill of the Undead King picked up a large moving group of humans, elves, gnomes, dwarves, orcs and even dragonkin. If the Reaper kills this living beings then it might have much more potent energy to harvest which will make destroying it even more difficult. The Undead King could not hesitate anymore and had to release another seal.
“Release the second seal from the Death God’s Sword of Devotion.” The Undead King Arthur stated and the black blade on his sword suddenly emitted smoke once more.
The sword which has a black blade with a golden outline now has an added silver runes on its black blade. The Undead King then pointed the great sword towards the Reaper and the silver runes on it activated which released a mist. The mist that the silver runes released then latched onto the Reaper’s body.
The Reaper was not able to dodge the mist that attached itself to its body but it did not bother as it continued its direction towards the living. The Undead King thought as much but he did not have to worry as the mist is already attached to the Reaper. 𝘪𝘳.𝘤𝑜
“Realm of the Dread Mist.” The Undead King uttered and the silver runes shone much brighter than before.
The form of the Undead King and the Reaper suddenly vanished from the mortal realm and travelled to another dimension. The Undead King managed to avert the catastrophe that was about to happen if the Reaper reached the living army. With the Reaper no longer on the mortal plane, its domain also left but there are still some lingering effects from it.
The dark orange clouds on the sky did not disappear and the red storm still showed no signs of dispersing. The imperial army still continued their march unknown to the major catastrophe that they avoided thanks to the effort of their supposed enemy.
The imperial army continued to pass through as they destroyed any undead that strayed from the path which was mostly players belonging to the Arch Lich’ faction. With the liches no longer having absolute control over them as they became dust, the undead players of the Arch Lich’ faction could only flee when they had the chance.
The liches might have become ashes but the death knight and the doom knight was still in commission. They undead players could only play it smart and try to retreat to an area where they cannot be seen. It did not take long for the imperial army to reach the location of the battle and welcome the Undead with a full blast of holy blessings with priests from all of the holy churches or what is left of it.
