I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 82: Doubt and Returning
It took a while for Reus to digest what Mavis had explained to him. Regarding what kind of conditions the beginning of what happened to Darius until finally serving Mavis as his master. In fact, Darius was long dead. Reus himself did not believe, even though Darius himself had already confirmed the truth. Reus had his own reasons, he was a realistic person. In his mind, it would be absolutely impossible to resurrect a dead person. Moreover, it was done by a boy who had not even grown up at his age?
"I know you're still confused and don't believe me, it doesn't matter. And for your sister, take it easy, even though her current appearance looks a little different, she still has her usual awareness" Mavis said casually. He said truthfully, Mavis did want that. Darius on the other hand had also been a little confusing to Reus, because his appearance now looked stronger and muscular, his face was also more charming than before.
"However, Prince, I still can't accept your offer, even if I want one. Sooner or later the healers will definitely tell that Consort Juleaha is behind all this, and my name will surely be dragged in it as well" Reus said, he smiled bitterly while looking down.
"So you've decided? Then you can start serving me. However, you have to perform the ritual just like Darius did, do you mind?" Quite satisfied Mavis heard Reus agreed to serve her, regarding the royal healers, Mavis had already taken the first step in anticipation of that.
"Prince, I can't." Reus did not know what else to talk about so that the prince could understand his condition. He is unlikely to serve Mavis, as he will serve no punishment at last.
Mavis chuckled once more.
After a few seconds Mavis was silent, the door opened again and five figures entered who took on her mysterious appearance, leaving Reus wondering who else these were? Are they the prince's confidants as well? Reus saw the five walking gracefully like a noble and instantly took a half- prostrate position before the prince.
"Greetings, Great Lord."
"We have carried out the task that my Lord has commanded," Wed said with a heavy voice.
Reus' heart shook as the five of them opened the hoods they were wearing and revealed their figures. Reus just put on a confused face. The one who just spoke up turned out to be a middle-aged grandfather! Also, being in the same row looks another figure like an alluring beautiful woman and a young boy who is about the same age as the prince. That's so weird! Why else would the prince take the old man's servant who should have been better off resting inside the house? Is that necessary?
"You guys work really well" Mavis said.
"Reus, all I've overcome, the royal healers will shut up forever. There's nothing you need to worry about anymore. Now I'm gonna ask you one more time, what's your answer?" After asking for a second time, Mavis sipped the tea Samantha had brought.
"Of course, I'm telling the truth. But, it seems like you still doubt my abilities and those five, right?"
Reus nodded.
In reality the healers were in the lower third tier of the prison, the safest place of this kingdom that not just anyone could enter without the permission of the king. Security there is very strong, with many lines branching out and traps in a particular place. On record, many of the intruders who intended to free the captives ended up exploding into meat paste once it triggered the trap. In other cases, some were killed while fighting with the guards who had strong strength, at least nearly twenty people with the power of blue-planned adventurers. Not something to be underestimated.
"Well, you can go and check it out yourself. The news would surely soon spread once the officers went to report to the upper echelons. You can come see me again later, if you have decided to serve me. It's just, I can't wait too long because I'm going to move to the southern border region soon" Mavis said.
Reus looked at the prince's face closely. He discovered that this prince was not messing with his words. Reus smiled and left to say goodbye.
"Then I'll step down, Prince." Reus lowered his head for a moment to pay his respects to the prince, then he paused while looking at the direction Darius was in. At that moment he was about to say something, but he immediately paused and immediately turned to leave.
Seeing that the door was closed again, Mavis immediately turned her gaze towards the five demons who were still in position. Mavis got up from her seat and walked closer until she arrived in front of her fifth. Mavis kept silent, addressing one by one of them while arranging what words he would say to them.
"You did your first task very well. Then I'll give you a gift." Mavis suddenly tried to hold back her smile and continued. "Do you want to merge into my shadow creatures?" Mavis recalled the conversation from Scott and Violet this morning.
"It is an honor for us to be able to serve my Lord" Wed said.
"Thank you, my Lord." All five fell in joy after gaining the trust of Mavis. Moreover, it was Scott who secretly whispered to his lover, Violet, that they could finally become blessed immortal beings like his other companions.
The five of them glanced at each other happily, then nodded while giving a cue. It did not take long for them, finally with their respective ways in ending life, without the slightest doubt, all five fell down and no longer had any signs of life.
