After hours of waiting for the weather to improve, the rain finally subsided at dusk and they were ready to continue their journey.
Victor, who was busy drawing something with his finger on the dusty floor of the building, was approached by Jacob who wanted to tell him to get ready to continue the journey.
When Jacob saw what Victor had drawn instantly Jacob was very surprised and immediately erased something that Victor drew.
"Hey! Why?!", asked Victor who was immediately shocked when Jacob erased something he drew.
"How did you know that symbol?! Do you realize what you just drew?!", Jacob asked Victor sternly.
"No, what is that?!", asked Victor back very curious.
"Huft....Victor, just so you know, that is one of the symbols of evil magic, Necromancy! How can you draw that symbol without knowing what it is?", Jacob explained with a long exhale.
"Sorry Jack, I really don't know about that, I saw that symbol appear in my dream, precisely on the surface of the burial ground before the undead rose and ambushed me...", said Victor with a regretful tone.
"Victor, promise me, don't draw anything like that again, it's very dangerous! Do you understand?" Jacob said as he held Victor's shoulders tightly to give him understanding.
"Alright, I understand...", Victor replied.
"Jack, Victor, is there a problem? Let's hurry up!", called Castor.
"Nothing...", Jacob replied.
They left the old building and continued their journey.
On the way, Victor secretly asked Castor something about Necromancy, hearing what Victor asked Castor immediately felt a little surprised and wondered about why Victor asked him that.
Castor also explained that Necromancy is an evil magic to resurrect and control the deads, the magic is very dangerous because it is fatal to the people around the user and even for anyone who uses it.
Victor was silent hearing what Castor explained, Castor, who was still curious, asked him why Victor suddenly asked such a thing.
Victor, who did not know how to explain it, only reasoned that he was just curious about it and there was nothing but curiosity.
When they were about to enter a lush pine forest, they were suddenly stopped by a gang of armed men who intended to rob the five of them.
"Stop! Don't fight if you want to survive!", threatened one of the robbers.
"Sorry, gentlemen, we don't have time to deal with you, so you'd better get out of the way and give us some space, because we have some very important business to attend to." Castor politely told the robbers.
Instantly the robbers burst into laughter after hearing Castor's words.
"Don't you know who we are?!", shouted one of the robbers.
"Of course we don't know each other, so gentlemen, once again I beg you very respectfully to give us the way because we have to hurry.", said Castor very politely while smiling.
"Enough! This is a waste of time!" said Agatha, who was getting annoyed and was about to come forward to beat up the gang of robbers.
"Agatha, don't...!", said Castor while preventing Agatha who intended to beat up the robbers.
"Oh waw! Hey Guys! Look at that angry voluptuous girl! Hahahahaha....I can't wait to play with her and make her beg me to do fun things with her again and again..." said one of the robbers.
"Hmmmm...yes, I think she will be a lot of fun for us...", said another robber.
"Tell you what! Hand over all your treasures and weapons, and we'll let the five of you pass safely!", said one of the robbers.
"No! We mean the four of you! Because we also want the girl to be one of the conditions for you to pass! You must also hand her over to us!" added another robber while sticking out his tongue with a lewd expression while looking at Agatha.
Feeling uncomfortable and made even more annoyed by the words of the robbers who continued to stare at her with obscene gazes, Agatha also brushed off Castor's arm who tried to hold her.
"Enough! You perverts! I'll beat you all up!", Agatha shouted angrily as she swatted Castor's hand away.
Agatha walked with her fists clenched hard towards the robbers who were blocking them.
"Looks like you're in big trouble, gentlemen!" said Castor.
"Hehehehehehe..., come here sweety girl I'll give you some addictive fun that you won't forget for the rest of your life, hehehehehe..." said one of the robbers.
"I'll help her!" said Victor who was also going to come forward to help Agatha.
But Gideon stopped Victor and asked him to be a spectator, he assured Victor that Agatha alone was enough to teach the robbers a lesson.
"Hey! No need! You'll see how scary Agatha can be when she gets angry, take it easy! We'd better be spectators.", Gideon said as he prevented Victor from helping Agatha.
"Oh, ummm... okay...", Victor replied.
The robbers burst out laughing as Agatha walked closer to them, without saying much Agatha immediately ran and kicked one of the robbers hard in the face until he fell unconscious.
Without taking long, one by one, the armed robbers beat Agatha with their bare hands until they were battered and finally surrendered.
"No, please! Forgive me, Please ! Miss! Don't kill me! I beg you!", said one of the robbers whom Agatha stomped on his head.
"Next time don't behave like a pervert and say something obscene to a woman, you scum!", Agatha said as she stomped on the head of one of the robbers who had been knocked down by her.
"Agatha! That's enough! Let them go!", Castor ordered.
Agatha immediately lifted her foot from the robber's head and let the gang of robbers run away, leaving their fainted flock behind.
"Great! What an entertaining show!" said Gideon as he clapped his hands happily after seeing Agatha in action.
Victor, who was dumbfounded at how Agatha had beaten the robbers single-handedly, was rendered motionless by what he had just witnessed.
"Hurry up! We're getting close!", Castor ordered his friends.
"Hey! How'd it go? Hehehehehe...", Gideon said to Victor who was still standing there dumbfounded.
The five of them immediately entered the pine forest area to continue their journey that had been hampered.
Meanwhile in Cadaverial the residents seemed to be struggling desperately to face the seemingly endless onslaught of the undeads.
In the midst of the great battle there was a brother and sister who led the residents in battle, from their physical characteristics and appearance they both seemed not to be from the land of Lacrimosgoth.
"Ayaka! Watch your back!", shouted the older brother as his sister was about to be attacked by one of the undead from behind.
The young girl quickly jumped out of the way and threw her knives at the heads of the undeads which then exploded.
"Brother! How can I kill these undead?! Even my kunai attack means nothing to them!", the younger sister shouted to her older brother who was fighting to protect the villagers when her attack failed to kill the undeads.
"Hold on! I haven't found a way yet...!", the older brother said loudly.
While in the middle of a fierce battle, suddenly the hand of one of the undead that she had blown up with her knife earlier grabbed the sister's left leg, causing her to be injured and fall down, soon the other undeads immediately surrounded the girl's body to prepare to eat her alive.
"Brother! Help me...!", cried the younger sister in pain.
"No! Ayaka!" her older brother hysterically shouted.
As the undead surrounded the girl, fiery arrows suddenly shot out and hit the bodies of the undeads.
Immediately, the bodies of the undeads surrounding the girl were burned and reduced to ashes.
Suddenly, everyone who was struggling was shocked and turned their gaze to the direction from which the fiery arrows had come.
From a distance they saw that Castor and the others had come to help their cause.
"Hang in there, guys! Let us take care of them, you guys take cover! We'll get this done quickly!", Castor shouted.
The girl and her older brother immediately retreated from the battle with the villagers and sought safe shelter while watching the actions of Castor and the others.
The undead immediately turned their attention to Castor and the others, and slowly began to walk towards Castor and the others to attack.
"Alright,it's time to kick some dead's asses!", said Gideon as he drew the sword from his back.
Without realizing it, the friction of the sword produced sparks that set his clothes on fire.
"Guys?! Do you smell something burning?", asked Gideon while sniffing his nose without realizing that his back was on fire.
Suddenly his comrades fell silent and looked at him with dumbfounded faces.
"Why are you looking at me like that?!", asked Gideon.
"Ummmm..., Gideon, your back is on fire...", Victor explained.
Gideon, who just realized it, immediately rolled on the ground while asking his comrades to help him put out the fire that burned his back.
"Oh, what a fool...", Agatha said in a surprised tone.
Victor and the others immediately helped Gideon put out the fire that was burning his back.
"Be careful friend! Purgatorite material is very sensitive to friction!" Jacob explained.
"Why didn't you explain it from the beginning? I'll look ridiculous in front of everyone!" Gideon grumbled as the fire on his back was extinguished.
"My apologize!", Jacob said.
"Everyone! Let's go full force!", Castor ordered.
The five of them immediately launched their attack to eradicate the undeads.
