章 26: Undead Plane

After dasing out of the Inn, Ayaan arrived in the deserted area. However, he still looked around to confirm if anyone was present.

Since he didn't find anyone, Ayaan's expression relaxed and opened the 'Planers and Dimensions' option.

1: Volcanic Plane

2: Snow Plane

3: Void Vale

4: Illusion Plane…

One after other, Hundreds of names appeared in front of Ayaan, which made his head dizzy. As he looked at the names of planes, he felt like everything was a dream and will disappear as he opens his eyes.

Nonetheless, he still proceeded these planes one by one. Finally, he saw a plane that piqued his interest.

Undead Plane…

Since long he had decided, he will follow the 'School of Necromancy.' However, now he could practice all the elements and had the talent to study all eight schools of magic. Nonetheless, he still decided to start with 'Necromancy.'

After reading the details of the 'Undead Plane,' he knew, there will be lots of undead in this world, which he could use to practice 'Necromancy.' Moreover, he didn't need to worry about getting killed by those creatures, because no one below 'Heaven Mage' could kill him.

Death element was for controlling death, and if the practitioner of death element doesn't practice 'Necromancy,' he should just stop practicing death elements.

However, Ayaan realized a very critical problem: he didn't know any spell other than 'Death Eye.'

Afterward, he opened the spell section and went for the death elemental spells.

In front of his eye, the variety of death spells appeared — Ray of Sickness, Life Transference, Raise Dead, Resurrection, Circle of Death, Controlling Undead…

"Oh? There are lots of new spells that appeared," Ayaan started to smile ear to ear as he saw the number of spells and their functions.

Without wasting his time, Ayaan purchased the 'Raise Dead' and 'Undead Control.'

Afterward, he purchased one more spell, 'Soul Devour.' The 'Soul Devour' could devour the souls of others and strengthen the soul of its user.

The 'Death Eye' also attacks the soul of an opponent, but it didn't affect its user's soul.

While, on the other hand, 'Soul Devour' will help to strengthen the soul of Ayaan. Eventually, as his soul becomes stronger, he will be able to control more powerful undead. Although his soul still could enhance as he levels up his magic power. However, it's speed will decrease.

After spending more than two hundred credits to purchase three heaven rank spells, Ayaan again opened the planer window and selected the 'Undead Plane.'

Ding: Please, select the number of people who want to go to the "Undead Plane."

Ding: Please, select the time you want to remain in the "Undead Plane."

Immediately, notifications started to appear in front of Ayaan. A surprised look showed up at his face, 'Does this mean I can take more people in these planes?' Ayaan wondered.

Still, he didn't dwell on it and immediately chose the option.

Ding: Be ready for the teleportation.

"Swish~."

"Ohh shit!!"

Promptly, a portal appeared near Ayaan and sucked him under it. In just a matter of seconds, there was no trace in this deserted street of anyone, and everything again fell into pin-drop silence.

Simultaneously, in a silent place filled with dark-black energy, the smell of death was everywhere in this alien world. Moreover, no trace of life was present at this place — Only the eerie feeling of death, mixed in the core of this world.

"Ahh!!"

However, the tranquility of the place didn't last much longer, because, at this time, a shout disturbed everything.

"Grr~Grr~."

Subsequently, the weird noises started to appear from the surrounding. Afterward, the bodies of different shapes began to emerge from the ground. However, after emerging, they didn't move anywhere but turned to look at where the shout came.

Eventually, the small portal started to form at the place, and the body of a boy was thrown out of it.

"Fuck! At least, give the warning before acting," a curse resounded in the quiet environment.

Afterward, Ayaan turned around to see his surrounding. However, what he saw made his expression to froze.

In front of him were standing at least twenty or something skeletons, some were the skeletons of monsters while others were the skeletons of humans. However, the structure of these skeletons was more significant than the ordinary human being. Therefore, he wasn't sure if they really were the humans previously or something else.

Some of them still had some flesh hanging on their bodies, and puss was leaking out from it. Moreover, worms were eating the flesh from inside. On the other hand, a few of the skeletons just had white shining bones without any infection.

Nonetheless, it wasn't time for standing and contemplating something, because he was in real shit at this moment.

"Roaar!"

One of the skeletons of the beasts roared and lunged at Ayaan.

"Howl!"

The first roar was just like a trigger — in just a matter of seconds, the tranquil environment echoed with eerie and dreadful shrieks.

"Shit!"

Not waiting for even a second, Ayaan started to sprint away from these hideous creatures and disgusting creatures.

Those creatures were just at the level of novice mage and couldn't run very fast. In only two minutes, Ayaan left them behind. However, at this time, one skeleton which had shining apparent white bones was still chasing behind Ayaan, and its speed also wasn't any slower than him.

Later, when Ayaan realized this skeleton's presence, he tried to see its level, and information appeared on its head.

Skeleton

Race: Human

Bloodline: N/A

Level: 5th level junior mage

Strength: 30

Chances of controlling: 70%

As Ayaan saw the details about the skeleton, his eyes started to shine. He knew these skeletons couldn't use magic because they had no soul. For becoming a mage, soul power was essential, without powerful soul mage can't achieve anything significant in this world, and without a soul, no one could cast a spell.

However, due to this world's environment, all the magic power inside these skeletons converted into physical strength — For increasing their strength, these types of low-class undead creatures devour the body of other powerful undead creatures.

Nevertheless, as Ayaan saw the chances of controlling, he became thrilled. This creature was already more powerful than him. Moreover, if he were able to control this skeleton, it would be able to help him a bit.

However, he didn't know that his chances were this high because the creature had no soul of its own. If it were the undead who started to develop its consciousness, his chances of controlling it would also decrease.

Afterward, Ayaan took out a parchment that had the spell 'Undead Control.' Although he had purchased the spell from the 'Magic Library,' he still didn't remember it. That's why he used parchment to cast the spell. However, he still didn't slow down because the skeleton was just behind him.

After five minutes later, his spell was ready. At this moment, he abruptly turned around and used the spell on the skeleton.

"Shriek!"

Eventually, a piercing shriek left from the skeleton — Ayaan, who was not far from it immediately closed his ears by both of his hands. 'How the fuck this skeleton could produce shriek like that without a vocal cord!?' He cursed inside his head.

Finally, when he realized that skeleton had fallen on the ground, he took off his hands from his ears, but they were still buzzing and affected by the previous noise.

Suddenly, Ayaan felt some kind of link had been established between him and the skeleton.

Slowly, Skeleton looked towards Ayaan with its hollow eyes but didn't move; neither made any noise.

"Stan up," Ayaan said, and the skeleton immediately followed his order and stood up.

"Hahaha!!" a burst of laughter escaped from his mouth.

"My first undead creature! Haha!"

"Roar!"

"Howl!"

"Shriek!"

Immediately, the series of howls resounded from not far away from him.

"Fuck!" Ayaan cursed loudly. The moment he saw the previous mob of undead creatures had caught up to him.

Instantly, one man and a skeleton started to sprint away while the mob of Undead creatures followed from behind.

章 27: Skeleton Brigade

After running for just a few hundred meters, Ayaan stopped and turned to look towards the vicious undead creatures.

"Why the hell am I running away from this low-class undead mob? No one below heaven-rank mage could hurt me. The system must have given me some kind of powerful shield or something, hehe." As Ayaan remembered about the protection which was given by the system for one month, his lips curled upward proudly.

Now, he didn't need to feel fear from this undead mob. He can stand at the same place, and these creatures won't be able to hurt him, hehe' that's what he thought. However, sometimes things would not go as we had planned.

"Swish!"

"Puchi!"

While he was rooted in thinking, a sharp claw arrived in front of him, and before he could react, it went directly inside his chest like a sword in tofu.

Subsequently, his expression froze when he felt the heartwrenching pain from his chest. Moreover, he felt the taste of blood inside his mouth — no voice was able to come from his mouth due to the excessive pain.

"Snap~."

The white-skeleton snatched its hand out from Ayaan's chest, but there was something more present in his hand — a heart.

At this moment, blood was gushing out from the hole on Ayaan's chest, and his body started to lose strength. Slowly, his eyes were losing their brightness. However, before closing his eyes, he looked at the skeleton that had attacked him and found its eyes glittering with the red light.

Afterwards, the skeleton turned his glowing eye towards the heart, dripping with Ayaan's blood. He threw it away like garbage and turned around to leave without betting an eye to Ayaan's body.

"Low-class human," the skeleton spat out a few words disdainfully before disappearing from the site in the blink.

Nonetheless, Ayaan, who was lying flat on the ground, saw and heard everything and knew that he fell into the hands of a formidable enemy, but was that enemy a heaven-rank?... How could a heaven-rank undead exist in this low-level plane?... How else would it hurt me with the protection of the system?... Is my luck really this shitty?

Soon, his eyes lost their colour and became grey. At this moment, the skeletons who were on their knees to pay respect to the higher being of this region also stood up and started to scatter.

The skeletons were the undead creatures, who don't eat the flesh of a living person and only devour other undead to increase their strength. Therefore, no undead paid any attention to his body and place again fell into deep silence. At this moment, only a single skeleton left standing not far away from Ayaan's body.

Without its owner, it can't even walk an inch. That was the strength of the heaven grade 'Undead Control.' Only after Ayaan's death, this skeleton will be able to free itself from him.

However, was he really dead?

Eventually, the hole on the Ayaan's chest slowly started to patch on its own.

At first, the heart started to form inside the hole, which was present at Ayaan's chest. After it became complete — heart began to beat, which warmed the blood inside his body, which had already frozen.

Secondly, the wound on his chest started to patch, and in just a matter of seconds, it had disappeared. Lastly, what remained at the place of the hole was only soft white skin on his bare chest.

"Gasping!"

"Huff~ Huff~."

Instantly, Ayaan's eyes, which were close all this time, snapped open. Afterwards, he started to take long, gasping breaths. And his whole body became wet from sweat.

When his breathing became somewhat regular, Ayaan tried to stood-up but failed.

"Fuck you, system! If I had known this would be the meaning of your protection, I would have long disappeared from those disgusting creatures!"

Lying flat on the ground, Ayaan cursed for some time. However, he didn't dare to raise his voice. Nevertheless, even he wanted to raise his voice, he didn't have the strength to do so.

Afterwards, Ayaan tried to run magic power inside his body and slowly gained his strength. Later, when he stood-up, Ayaan turned to look at the skeleton with a grim expression and tried to compare it with the previous skeleton which had attacked him.

Too weak~

At this moment, it was the only thought that came to his mind when he looked at his skeleton and compared both.

Was that a lich? Ayaan wondered.

After gaining knowledge from the system, Ayaan had a vast amount of information about necromancy and other magic schools. He knew there are many levels in skeletons. When any skeleton starts to develop consciousness, it becomes the higher life form among the skeletons, akin to the nobility between ordinary folks in the mortal world.

That higher life form is called lich in the world of necromancy. Moreover, lich's had been divided into many different levels — there were even kings among these liches that ruled the territory, and their intelligence wasn't any less than humans. Furthermore, they can use death magic on their will after developing their consciousness.

Nevertheless, Ayaan didn't dwell on it much longer and decided to find a safe place and wait for these hellish twenty-four hours to over and go back to Aemmugar from this shitty place. However, it's only been a few hours since he arrived. Therefore, he can't go back anytime soon.

Afterwards, Ayaan instructed his skeleton to carry him because his body didn't have much energy left and couldn't walk much longer without support. However, he continued to channel magic power to recover faster. Although his body was recovering rather quickly, it will still take a few hours to heal completely.

Soon, Ayaan was on the skeleton's shoulder, sitting comfortably. After searching for more than two hours, he realised a bitter truth — in this world, there was no safe place, and every corner was filled with undead.

Wherever he went, undead skeletons greeted him. After four hours of running and struggling, Ayaan realised there weren't any creatures in this place other than undead skeletons.

"Did I arrived in some kind of skeleton kingdom or something?" He thought out loud.

However, there wasn't any point in thinking about it. Therefore, Ayaan didn't dwell on it and walked away with his three skeletons who were following him tightly from behind.

After four hours, he had almost recovered completely, and this insane speed of recovery was a pleasant surprise to Ayaan, 'this must be one of the benefits brought by the upgrade of the system.' He thought.

Anyways, after four hours, his wounds had already recovered from inside-out, and there was nothing wrong with his body any longer. Moreover, after struggling for four hours, Ayaan was able to control two more skeletons — equally as powerful as his previous one.

Furthermore, Ayaan realised that he could gain experience points by killing these undead skeletons, and after every kills, the power of death element inside his body would increase. Moreover, every kill done by the skeleton would be count as his kill as well.

Thrilled by knowing the truth, Ayaan started to counter-attack and increased his magic power from level-one junior mage to level-two junior mage.

However, Ayaan wasn't stupid enough to fight with those powerful undead skeletons. On the other hand, he would only fight with the undead, where he was confident of his victory. If Ayaan encountered a powerful skeleton — he would run away with his three skeletons without wasting his time fighting with them.

Ayaan had already stared into the eyes of death one time, and the feeling wasn't pleasant. Therefore, he would not let that happen again.

He wasn't a coward; on the other hand, he was brave and courageous. However, he just didn't want to make the same mistake he made previously, just because he was trying to show off, even though there wasn't any girl present at the site.

At this moment, Ayaan was standing inside the dark cave, which was already acquired by few undead skeletons. Surrounding Ayaan were his three skeletons whom he was giving orders to attack the skeletons in the cave.

Ayaan had already checked the strength of this group of undead and knew they were no match for his three warriors' undead legion. Therefore, he started to give attacking commands to his skeletons.

"Attack!"

At the single command, his undead of three started to attack other skeletons frantically in the cave. However, Ayaan never let them run away more than five meters from him to avoid any mishap from happening again.

"Dodge the attack!"

"Attack from behind!"

"Yes, crush its head!"

Simultaneously, he issued many commands to his undead. After fighting with these undead skeletons, Ayaan knew they would only die when their skull would be crushed, or they would just revive, again and again, even after separating their bodies into numerous parts.

Eventually, as he gave the command to his undead brigade, an undead skeleton entered the circle of three skeletons and arrived in front of Ayaan. However, when Ayaan saw this, there was no fear on his face; on the other hand, his lips curled into a mocking smile and spat out only two words...

"Undead Control!"
