[Sommon:Shadow Legion][2/10]

[Sommons an army of shadow soldiers and generals.]

[200MP per sommoned shadow.]

[(0/200)Sommoned shadow.]

[(0/2)Shadow General.]

-

"...200MP per shadow?what kind of scam is this?"

"Then how about the generals?"

"Stats huh,how strong is a normal shadow?"

"Thats good,but my total mana is 360 so i can just sommon one,lets make one for now as a test."

Hades shadow expand as it forms a shadow holding a short sword with black armor.

"Well lucky you,you'll be a general,im to lazy to wait for my mana to recover."

He touched the shadow and the shadows figure changed,the new shadow emits black smoke,its armor now covers its whole body and the short sword turns into a gigantic great longsword.

However,Hades was not concern about any of those.

"You got taller didnt you...?"

The shadow was like a giant as Hades height was around 1.5 meters and the giant was 3 meters tall.

"You know that its not the case here!!"

Hades then looked back at the giant.

"Ha-!just wait until i grow older...?"

Hades then though of a really bad scenario his body could be in.

"H-hey,system...?"

<yes?>

"..zombies doesnt age,but they still grow right...?"

<No,why would they?>

"GOD DAMMIT ALL-!!"

Hades screams in despair,at loss as he didnt know what to do.

<Relax,if its about you height then you just need to evolve into a vampire.>

"oh!right,i can evolve,but does vampires even age?"

<yes.>

"hahaaha!just wait until i evolve,just wait!"

<However,vampires age 1 year every 1000 years,so it might take 'some' time for you to grow.>

With the systems remark,Hades lost his strength and fall to the ground kneeling to the shadow in defeat.

"You intentionally left that out,didnt you..?"

"..."

Hades was left speechless by his systems shameless remark.

Hades didnt know,but the girl,Ellie,was watching him talk to himself,shouting and laughing like a madman.

Ellie looked at Hades with a strange face.

'Is this guy crazy?who's he talking to?'

Hades would laugh then suddenly get depress,it makes him look crazy as he certainly was.

"..a name?do i have to name the other generals aswell?are they a child or something?"

"..."

"Fine,i'll name you Alex."

As Hades gives the shadow a random name the shadow bow down and spoke.

"Yes,milord."

Hades startled,dash back and shout.

"System,they can speak..?!"

<Yes,however only the generals are able to speak.>

"damn...that really scared me..."

Hades then though about his actions.

"ugggh..."

Hades was embarrassed as he acted so openly,not knowing someone was looking at him.

Hades still didnt notice Ellie looking at him is if shes looking at a madman.

"You intentionally left this out as well,didnt you?"

"RAAHHHH!!!!COME OUT HERE!!!I'LL KILL YOUUUU!!!"

Ellie was once again startled by Hades sudden outburst.

Hades this time,noticed Ellie as he goes back kneeling on the floor.

"..damn this system...."

With his image ruined,Hades goes back to working with the shadow skill,burying what just happened as history.

"Now i need to wait for my mana to go back and sommon another one."

Hades said as he looked at his MP bar.

*****

In the church the pope and the priests were conflicted by the sudden appearance of a demon lord.

"HOW COULD THIS BE-?!"

"How could there be another demon lord?!"

"Can we summon more heroes??!"

"W-what do we do??"

"Fear not,the Gods will help us."The pope spoke.

"Inform the kingdoms and the heroes about this second demon lord,send reinforcement to Debel and investigate about this new demon lord as fast as possible."

"Yes!"a priest said.

The priest walk out of the room in a hurry.

"Just where in hell did you come from?"The pope said as he look at a tall pillar of darkness rising from the ground.

*****

Back in the village.

Hades looked at his MP bar waiting for his mana to return.

And after waiting for a minute it recovers 2MP as Hades WIS was at 20.

"It would take me a whole day to make an army."

With that in mind Hades checked his remaining SP.

"59,put it all to INT."

As he said so,Hades checked his status.

"Okay,you'll be my second general."

Hades then though of what name should he give.

"Hmm...to honor the kid i'll name you James."

"Well i guess thats that."

"I'll just make more shadows when my mana is full."

Hades then looked at the girl,still looking at him with a strange face.

"Dont look at me like that,for now we have job to do."

"What will i do?"Ellie asked,worried about what her first mission would be.

'Are we going to attack another village or something?'she though.

"Its time to gather the loots~!!!"

"L-loots??"

"Yes,gold or anything with high value,now go!"

Hades said as a dollar sign was painted on his eyes.

"U-umm...the village is just a poor village so there arent anything valuable here,but the village chief is from a dukes family so he has many golds and treasures,but.."

The girl said as she looked at Hades.

"What is it?speak."

"Its in the vault,c-can you punch the vault open?just like earlier?"

"Well,i can try,so where is it?"

"There...."the girl pointed behind Hades.

Hades looked back and actually saw a vault.

"When was there a vault here?"

As Hades looked at the vault,it was made of steel which made it hard to punch open.

"I will also take damage if i punch it open,i guess it cant be help."he said.

"[SACRED:KARMA]."

At his words a black bladeless blade appeared in his hands.

"Hmph-!"

Hades swings his sword as the vault with dungeon was split into two.

"Oh..guess i overdid it...i better finish this quick."

The dungeon started to collapse which made Hades hurry and do his thing.

Hades entered the vault and saw a sea of gold,the vault was as big as a villagers house.Its small for a house but big for a vault,and as the vault was full of gold which he knows its a considerable amount.

"I'M RICH!!"

Hades then brought out his pendant and made it suck all the gold.

"Now time to go."

Hades then pick the girl by her waist like a luggage and jumped out of the dungeon.

As he landed safely he remembered his shadows.

"Dont tell me i need to make them again..?"

<No,you can just recall them,its a skill afterall.>

Hades then canceled his skill and the shadows went back.

"Now i dont know what to do,system got any ideas?"

"Yeah,if it was back then i wont even do all this,but when i become a zombie i cant get tired,do i really need to rest?"

Hades then looked at the girl.

"I didnt expect you to be a lazy system,your not even the one working here..."

<...Im not...>

"Well maybe we should take a rest."

And so Hades and Ellie stay in the village for a night,Ellie wore a new batch of clothes she got from Hades,and as expected it was all black.

'Does he have a thing for black or something?'she thought.

Ellie ended the day by eating and then she sleeps.

Hades made shadows all night,rather than rest he almost died from boredom.

And so the night goes and the day follows.

.....

Ellie woke up and saw Hades sitting on a chair near the door.

"Your up then lets go,do you know the nearest city nearby?"

"Yes,the nearest city here is the Carthion City,its the city that manages the supply to the front against the demons.."

"Hmm...then lead the way."hades said as he opens the door.

"B-but,are we going to walk?it would take us a few days to reach the city...."

"If its just a few days then its fine,i got enough food here so we should be fine."

"Its dangerous to stop in our way there,at day ants are out and at night wolves goes out to hunt."

Hades understand why its dangerous,wolves would ambush at night,but what he dont get was the ants.

"Ants?why ants?are they like giant ants or something?"

"No,but there are billions of ants out in the forest and they all rally together,its dangerous for anyone unless they were a mage..."

"hmm...so we really need a carriage,huh?"

"yes...."

"Dont worry.."

Hades then stands up from his chair.

"I got a plan."

And so the hero(?) with his new companion continue his jorney to Carthion city.
