Battle Of Ascension

The sound of loud footsteps resounded through a hall. The hall was luxurious yet unique. The uniqueness was about the bone frame which could be seen as the trim on the hall. There were forty chairs on both side made of gold, but again, the bone as the frame of the chair.

Twenty chairs on the left and twenty chairs on the right. Behind each of the chair, there was a statue made of gold. There was no bone frame on the statue, but the statue itself was a skeleton.

Not only a golden statue, on the top of the golden statue, but there was also a huge flag. A black huge flag about five meters width and there was an unknown golden word on each flag. Each word was different from the others and there were forty flags in the hall.

However, among the forty statues. Ten statues had their head destroyed and there was a hole with twenty centimeters in diameter hole in the left chest.

In the middle of the seats, there was a golden carpet. From the entrance of the hall to the end of the hall which led to the main seat, to the throne. The throne made of gold, but the gold was different with the gold on the forty seats.

The forty seats were made of pure gold, but the throne made of from gold from the Mythical Grade Skeleton. If Randy was here, he would recognize that of course. It was the frame from the Mythical Grade Skeleton; the throne made of Mythical Grade Skeleton"s frame.

Behind the throne, there was another statue. The statue was much bigger compared the other statue; it was about twenty meters high, two times taller than the other forty statues. The same as the throne, the statue was made of the Mythical Grade Skeleton"s frame.

There was another a black flag on the top of the statue. The flag also two times bigger than the other flags and there was no word on the flag, but an image. The image was an eye, an made of flame, and the image was vivid like real eyes. The dark crimson color as the pupil and a golden flame on the top of the eye.

The s.p.a.cious and luxurious hall was quiet. However, there was a "tak tak" sound broke the quiet atmosphere. There was someone covered in the black cloak from the head to the toe walked, heading toward the throne.

Even though the man in the black cloak was walking on the top carpet, the "tak tak" sound resounded from him. Arriving five meters away from the throne, the man on the black cloak knelt down until his head reached on the ground.

The man in the black cloak knocked his head three times despite there was no one sitting on the throne. Yes, there was no one sitting on the throne, but the man in the black cloak still knelt down.

Afterward, the man in the black cloak stood up and walked up to the throne. He pa.s.sed the throne and surprisingly, behind the twenty meters tall statue was not a wall, but there was a black curtain right behind the throne.

Apparently, the man in the black cloak was familiar with the hall. He pa.s.sed through the black curtain directly. There was another room behind the throne.

The room was quite big, about twenty fours meters long and twelve meters wide. At the end of room, there was a big bowl made of gold. Yes, there was a big bowl, ten meters tall and ten meters in diameter.

There was a stair leading to the ten meters and on the top of the stair, there was a man stood straight as he looked down to the bowl. The person who stood on the top stair was also wearing a cloak but in the different color. It was a black gold cloak, covering the person from the head to the toe.

The person in the black gold cloak was looking down at the bowl, the bowl filled with bones. Yes, there were many frames inside the bowl, from the humanoid frame to a frame with four feet. There were many kinds of the frame inside the bowl.

Soon, the man in the black cloak arrived right under the stair. He immediately knelt down again, but the man in the black didn"t have his head knocked on the ground like before. He just knelt down with one foot and greeted with a hoa.r.s.e voice.

"My Lord, the supply from Forlin, Romina, and Moira has arrived!" The man in the black cloak reported as he knelt down.

There was no response came out from the man black gold cloak. Silent invaded the room once again after the hoa.r.s.e voice.

It took sometime before a gentle and a masculine voice came out from the man in the black gold cloak.

"Hmm," The man in the black gold nodded his head before continuing with a question, "What about Barton? Is there still no news from your subordinates?"

"My subordinates have come back just now. They told me Barton Legion was over and it was the same human"s force who had destroyed Kururi"s Legion," The man in the black cloak answered.

"My Lord, please send us as a reinforcement to Forlin. If this keeps going, it"s just a matter of time before the other legions get annihilated. The nearest to that human"s force is Forlin Legion. Please send a reinforcement to Forlin place,"

The man in the black cloak pleaded. It was clear from his voice, there was a trace of worry and anxiety in his voice.

However, the man in the black gold cloak gave a silent as a response. The room became quiet again. It took a few moments and the man in the black cloak heard a sigh from the man in the black gold cloak.

"It"s not that I don"t want to send a reinforcement, but it"s useless. You know it already, right? Even This Lord send a reinforcement, it will be useless except I am going myself,"

The man in the black cloak fell silent at the man in the black gold cloak"s words. That was right, even there was a reinforcement helping Forlin Legion. It was useless indeed, based on the report he received.

Barton died and he could not even leave a light injury on the enemy which meant the enemy was far stronger than Barton, the Mythical Grade Undead.

Yes, the creature in the black cloak was skeleton too, and he was the same grade as Barton, Mythical Grade Undead. Meanwhile, the man in the black gold cloak was The Lord of The Enigma Kingdom, Enigma.

"However, I can"t go to help them. Another batch of supply and I can evolve to the next grade. I need to focus and make preparation for that," Enigma released out another sigh as he spoke. His voice still gentle and mild, from his tone, the skeleton in the black cloak could discern the helplessness from Enigma"s tone.

The skeleton in the black cloak also knew Lord Enigma was in the verge of evolution to the next grade and what Lord Enigma told him was also right.

Lord Enigma was the strongest skeleton of The Enigma Kingdom and he was the strongest after Lord Enigma. Lord Enigma was Eternal Grade Undead, the highest grade among them and the skeleton in the black cloak was Mythical Grade Undead, the strongest after Lord Enigma.

"However… This Lord will get revenge for our people! This Lord won"t let those insolent human slides without paying a price from killing our race, I will kill all humans who have killed our race, This Lord will torture their soul, and use their remnant to rebuild our force!" Enigma declared.

Enigma"s voice was deep, cold, and fierce. The gentleness and mildness in his voice were gone.

"All right, you tell Forlin to get back with the last materials. Don"t let his legion meet that human"s force. This Lord will bring you guys later to invade those insolent humans after This Lord evolves to the next grade,"

"Also, tell Forlin this is my order. He must get back with the last supply and leave the land with his legion immediately after collecting the last materials,"

Enigma ended his words with a sigh. The gentle and mild tone came out from Enigma.

The skeleton in the black could only acknowledge Lord Enigma"s order as it was indeed the best for the current situation. He could only hope the human"s force and Forlin Legion didn"t meet during the time Forlin collected the resource for Lord Enigma to evolve.

Tak Tak Tak

The sound of footsteps resounded again as the skeleton in the black cloak walked away from Lord Enigma.

After the sound of footsteps completely disappeared, Enigma muttered in a low voice, "I thought my kingdom is a strong enough to conquer a few lands or at least until I could evolve to Saint Grade,"

"But I have rotten luck to meet the chosen one in my first expedition. That bast*rd hermit must have helped him. If there"s no help from that old dude, how could a mere human destroy my two legions in the short time?"

Beside the knowledge about the Battle of Ascension. Enigma also had another information about the human. It was said the human didn"t have a help from a G.o.d like them. Because of that, Hermit, a human who could rival a G.o.d would descend and gave their blessing for the human.

However, there was a strict rule for Hermit. It was one hermit could only descend they could only choose one human as to get the Hermit"s blessing.

Different from Undead and Beast, the human would receive a different form of blessing from them. It could be equipment, skill, bloodline, and more.

"The leader of that human"s force must have received a bless from that Bast*rd Hermit," Enigma concluded.

"However, that blessing is useless in the front of me. After evolving to Saint Grade Undead, there"s no human could rival me,"

Enigma concluded as he looked at the pile of bones inside the big bowl. The black flame in Enigma"s socket flickered fiercely. The black flame was different from the black in Mythical Grade Undead"s socket. There was a gold light glittered at the outer flame.

…

Meanwhile, Randy and Zhen Yi were still in Sumatera Island. They stood before a pit, but they could not see the bottom of the pit. The pit seemed to be bottomless and they could see the darkness inside the pit.
