In the afternoon, a rogue and a knight came to the dungeon. They were the ones Jake had corrupted and sent to gather information and spread rumors outside. From the time when Irene and the adventurers came to raid his dungeon.
He met them outside.
”Master, the dungeon’s infamy is increasing all over the area. Lady Irene has a bounty of 100 high-grade mana crystals on her head,” the knight
”I see…” Jake was sitting on a chair under a tall tree.
The seeds Jake had spread on the first floor had dug their roots outside and such a large plant had grown near the dungeon entrance. They only required the dungeon’s abundant mana to survive.
”Also… there is another news…”
”Hm?” Jake turned to the rouge who spoke. He urged the man to speak.
”A necromancer is hunting the nobles!” The rogue seemed to rejoice. Finally, those darn nobles were getting what they deserved!
”How powerful is this necromancer?” Jake asked. However, the man shook his head.
Nothing was known about this person except that he/she had a large army of skeletons capable of wielding swords and casting magic. It had to be a pretty powerful necromancer.
‘Looks like it’s going to get tougher around here… No wait, this necromancer can draw the attention of the churches. I can also corrupt the clerics internally, sneakily…’ Jake thought.
The only thing he was worried about was this necromancer targeting nobles. Baron Leo could be targeted as well. Jake was planning to take control of the karsuda province first. If the necromancer killed all the nobles, the royals would pay attention. That was not good.
‘I’ll have to deal with you as well… But for now, keep being high key.’ With this thought, Jake sent the two men again. He gave them a simple task of keeping things in check now.
He gave them the secret method of contact used by dark mages which Irene knew. It was basically using one’s blood to create the connection with another person’s mana over a long distance. This was more of a ritual than a spell.
By burning a drop of blood, they could have a one-way communication with him. The rogue would stay in Orlando and the Knight would go to Gera. If anything happened, they would send him messages, so that he would be prepared.
…
Inside a chamber on the 18th floor, Jake was looking at a large map spread on the table. Irene and Vin were beside him.
”So these are the most remote places?” Jake looked at the two towns on the map which were behind the volcanic mountain.
They were the farthest from the cities in Karsuda. Actually, these two towns, Regis and Luton, bordered another province. Few people came here. They were also quite far from Jake’s dungeon.
He had made these two the target for his advancement.
‘I’ll go there when I corrupt Dorstone…’ Jake thought.
This viscount would surely have fifty to sixty mana crystals. With that, he would have the required crystals to upgrade his dungeon as well.
…
2 days later.
It was late at night. Viscount William Dorstone’s mansion was in the suburbs of the Aour Town.
There was a party inside this luxurious establishment. It was William’s 2nd daughter’s 16th birthday. She had come of age tonight, so the Viscount had generously called the surrounding high-class peasants, and merchants for a banquet.
The knights were silently guarding the mansion with swords and lances. They were alert all the time, unlike the guards on the main gate.
”Ack!”
”Aaahh!”
Cries resounded in the place which Ash quickly muffled with his palms. After the two men died, the Dark Knight didn’t care about sneaking and kicked the gate open.
”Who?!” One of the startled knights immediately drew his sword only to be killed by a Ray of Darkness.
Another one turned his head and asked, ”What happened?”
Before he could say any further, a black shadow rushed to him. Without even swinging his sword, the 1st Circle Knight died immediately.
Ash walked on the trail through the compound with an apathetic face. If anyone tried blocking his path, he just killed that person. His only job here was to kidnap the Viscount’s wife and daughters.
The once powerful battalion of Knights called Silver Crane didn’t dare to cross him after he killed seven of them. Two 2nd Circle Knights and five 1st Circle Knights without breaking a sweat.
They instead went to inform the Viscount and his two 3rd Circle knight captains.
The Dark Knight was like a death reaper approaching them. He arrived at the place of the banquet quickly.
William Dorstone had already learned of this dangerous visitor and equipped himself.
”Who are you?!”
”Unmask yourself, I am Viscount William Rel Dor-”
Ash unsheathed his black sword, and it glowed with a crimson light. He held it with one hand, terrifying the surrounding people.
”Where are your wife and daughters?”
Dorstone’s hands holding his sword shook. He was extremely angry. Who was this man? Coming to his banquet like a barbarian and demanding his loved ones.
”Attack!” He shouted.
Immediately, the two 3rd Circle Knights joined their lord in dealing with this unknown man who was also dressed like a knight. Albeit, his appearance seemed more intimidating and foul.
”I don’t have time for this,” Ash said in a deep voice and kicked the ground.
He clasped his sword and parried the blades of the three men single-handedly. All three flew back, coughing blood. Their strength could not match up to his.
The Dark Knight walked forward and grabbed the viscount by his neck. The struggling man tried using his skills, but it was all useless in front of true power.
”Where are your wife and daughters?” Ash asked again.
”R-Run…” the viscount had only uttered this when Ash increased the pressure on his neck.
The man struggled. His legs frantically moved about and he used his hands to peel away the tight palm holding his neck.
At this moment, people exclaimed in surprise as the birthday girl suddenly turned into a purple wolf.
Ash’s eyes sharply turned toward her. She was running away with all her might.
“Annie!”
“Annie!”
Her stunned mother and sister called.
Whoosh! The Dark Knight threw Viscount Dorstone, and ran toward the shifter girl who was previously masquerading as a human.
