Chapter 21 Coveting
Chapter 21 Coveting
Thanatos fell into a deep sleep, integrating all his consciousness.
He needs some time.
The entire skeleton lay in the coffin in deathly silence.
It can be as short as a few days or as long as ten days or half a month.
Lu Wanyue didn't want to stay in the Temple of the Dead doing nothing and waiting for Him to wake up.
She possessed half of His power after the ritual.
He has great power but doesn't know how to use it.
This is fatal.
Lu Wanyue plans to continue studying basic magic courses at the Crutia Magic Academy.
Lukasz transformed himself into a bat to pick her up from school every day.
The magic instructors of the entire Krutia Magic Academy knew Lu Wanyue's identity clearly, and they were very caring towards her, even showing her a hint of respect.
Lu Wanyue left after class every day and did not communicate much with classmates. She was unaware of the various speculations made by her classmates.
I suspect she has a backer or is a relative of some important person.
"Hello, beautiful lady, can we be friends? You can call me Romand, the second prince of the royal family of Carinia." A blond young man blocked Lu Wanyue's way and bowed gracefully.
Lu Wanyue paused, the other party was too purposeful.
Just introduce yourself, but focus on your identity.
"Lu Wanyue." She gave a fake smile full of worldly wisdom.
"What a romantic name! May I invite you to my home?" Ruomande's aquamarine eyes looked at her expectantly.
"We just met for the first time, it's not a good idea." Lu Wanyue turned her head to avoid the pair of affectionate eyes across from her that could even look at a dog.
"Wanyue, I noticed you the first time you came to class. It wasn't the first time we met." Ruomande frowned and looked at her seriously with his watery puppy eyes.
Lu Wanyue had to admit that the other party was very good at taking advantage of his appearance.
"I might have to go back and ask my partner." She was politely declining.
"It's okay! I'll wait for your good news! But Wanyue's partner is too possessive. Does he have to decide on such things?" Ruomande looked as if he was standing up for her.
"Haha, my partner is a jealous person!" She smiled with a fake smile, which sounded a bit sarcastic.
If Mand didn't hear it, as a native of the Western fantasy world, he didn't understand the modern art of language.
"Wow! Your partner is actually a jealous person? What kind of magical race is that!" Ruomande said in genuine surprise.
"Haha, a very sour race. I will give you an answer after class tomorrow." Lu Wanyue waved his hand, and the bat hanging upside down by the window quickly flew to his shoulder.
"Okay! See you tomorrow, Wanyue!" Ruomande made way gentlemanly.
"See you tomorrow." Lu Wanyue hurriedly left the classroom.
Ruo Mande looked at the direction she left, his smile disappeared instantly, his aqua blue eyes were filled with a piercing chill, and he drew up a strange arc coldly, and said slowly: "What an interesting race!"
Lu Wanyue returned to the tree house and used his power to break through the void and return to the Temple of the Dead.
The bat on his shoulder immediately flew down and turned back into its original form. Lukasz asked tentatively, "Sir, do you want to go? Being a guest at his house is not just an ordinary visit. It is an invitation from the entire Carrenia royal family."
"I know. Judging from Romand's attitude, I suspect that the royal family of Carinia has learned some news." Lu Wanyue thought, and couldn't help but coil up the finger bone given by Thanatos.
"You mean, the royal family of Carinia knows that you are the bride of the Lord of the Dead? Do you want to contact the Lord of the Dead through you?" Lukas frowned, with red light flashing in his eyes, as if he was displeased with the royal family of Carinia.
"I don't know the details, but he definitely has no good intentions. As for his purpose, we'll know once we go there, right?" Lu Wanyue planned to meet the royal family of Karinia.
"My lord, the royal family of Karenia is just an empty shell. The one that truly controls Karenia is the Holy See of Light. Those royal family members are just puppets of the Holy See of Light. The Holy See of Light and the Undead are in a hostile relationship, so..." Lukas said seriously.
"So it's more likely that the Holy See of Light invited me?" Lu Wanyue paused with his finger bones, his expression becoming more solemn.
"Yes, sir." Lukasz did not recommend that the sir who gave birth to a new god go.
"Tell me what's going on with the Holy See of Light?" She needed to know.
When I first heard the name "Guangming", I thought it was something good.
But it inexplicably gives people an uncomfortable and weird feeling.
"The Church of Light originated in the country of Brania. At that time, Brania was hit by a solar eclipse and drought lasted for three years. The whole country was in darkness, death and despair. When the whole country was facing destruction, a group of people appeared out of nowhere and said that as long as they believed in them, they would grant rain and usher in light. It was like a life-saving straw for humans in desperate situations. The Church of Light gained the faith of the entire country of Brania. It rained for three days and three nights, and then the sun appeared. The Church of Light was established." Lukas said with a strange smile.
"There must be more than that!" Lu Wanyue looked at Lukas' smile and felt that things were definitely not that simple.
"This is a conspiracy specially planned for the country of Brania. That group of people are apostles who practice forbidden magic and worship the devil. They have been eyeing this country for a long time. Brania is the only country among all countries that does not ban alcohol, sex, drugs, and gambling. There are no taboos. It is the cradle of desire, and desire is a hotbed for the devil. So the devil's apostles planned a catastrophe to destroy Brania, take Brania into their pockets, and offer it to the devil. This is a sacrifice." Lukasz's red eyes flashed with blood and his eyes were gloomy.
"So...the three-year solar eclipse and drought were all planned by the Holy See of Light? It was just to make the people of Brannia submit to them and believe in what they believe in! Damn! This is like secretly beating people up, then pretending to be a good person and giving them medicine, and others even say thank you! It's so disgusting!" Lu Wanyue looked disgusted and extremely disgusted.
"Well, your understanding is correct, but more importantly, they believe in the devil, so they can't preach openly. They can only rely on this inferior method, putting on a layer of so-called bright shell to cover everything up." Lukasz's eyes were filled with hostility.
The entire Eden continent is free to believe, there are no restrictions on worshipping gods, and each god has his own abilities.
This is almost a fight for God's followers, so it is disgusting.
"Then what does this have to do with the country of Karinia? No, the question should be, which countries has the Holy See of Light expanded to?" Lu Wanyue's expression was tense.
"The human race is the largest in the Eden continent, with a total of 12 countries. More than half of the countries have been infected by the Holy See of Light." Lukasz said solemnly.
"Hiss! Is there no one in charge?" Lu Wanyue's scalp tingled. Half of the human country was polluted by demons.
"They believe voluntarily. We cannot control it unless their faith is transferred. But it is obvious that this cannot be easily transferred. Almost every country that has been infected has been planned to make them fall into despair. Finally, when they are on the verge of death, they are given new life and their body, mind and will submit. This is their usual method. Gods cannot participate in mortal wars. This is an internal problem of the human race." Lukasz said regretfully.
"Hiss! What's the matter with the hostility between the Holy See of Light and the Undead?" Lu Wanyue asked curiously.
Why do the methods of the Holy See of Light look so much like mind control?
Cult?
"The Church of Light covets the power of the Lord of the Dead. It uses various methods to infiltrate the Undead, provoke wars, and even confuse the Undead to change their beliefs. It hopes to nibble away at the power of the Lord of the Dead bit by bit. They are just a bunch of rats." Lukasz sneered with a look of contempt at his lips.
"How abominable! The purpose of the royal family of Karinia inviting me as a guest is obvious! They want to covet the authority of the Lord of the Undead through me!" Lu Wanyue was angry.
She gets angry when it comes to this authority!
In modern times, there is also common property between husband and wife after marriage!
If she marries the Lord of the Dead, then His authority will be hers!
You are such a jerk! Coveting the power of the Lord of the Dead is just coveting her property, right?
Simply unforgivable!
Lu Wanyue cursed in her heart, and cursed the ancestors of the thief from the Holy See of Light who coveted her property.
If you want to engage in pyramid schemes, just do it. Why do you have to show off in front of the real owner?
I just don't want to live anymore!
"Tomorrow! I will accept the invitation from the royal family of Karinia!" Lu Wanyue said gritting his teeth.
"Sir, the Lord of the Undead is still integrating his consciousness. It is too unsafe for you to go alone." Lukasz said worriedly.
And the adults are also nurturing a new god, what if something unexpected happens?
The various inferior methods used by the Holy See of Light are difficult to guard against.
Lukasz was worried.
"Who said I'm going alone? I'm not a fool." Lu Wanyue smiled slyly with a secretive expression.
"I'll stay with my Lord, and Keroth will come with me," Lukaz felt that he needed to contact his old friend.
"Well, I feel at ease with you around. Send someone to the elves to pass on a message that the thief who stole the holy water has appeared and will appear in the royal castle of Carinia tomorrow night." Lu Wanyue broke off a strand of hair and handed it to Lukas.
"What is this?" Lukasz didn't quite understand how an adult could easily give his hair to others.
After all, the body and name can reveal all the fate of the other person.
"You give this to the Elf King." Lu Wanyue was looking forward to tomorrow's show.
She used her life points to buy a full half year of shielding. In the eyes of these gods and spirits, she was an unknown. Even Thanatos could find her. She began to doubt whether this unknown was insignificant in the eyes of ordinary people.
Among gods, it may mean special.
I believe that the Elf King can accurately find the "thief" through this unknown.
She has even put her head in front of the other party, the Elf King will definitely know the truth of this news.
Lu Wanyue wanted to laugh whenever she thought that the Elf King would visit Carinia tomorrow night.
Although Lukasz didn't know what the task entrusted to him meant, he thought it must be very important.
He transformed into a bat and left the Temple of the Dead.
Lu Wanyue went to visit Thanatos' grave as usual.
She looked at the motionless skeleton in the coffin, turned over and rolled into the coffin!
He touched Thanatos' ribs playfully and muttered to himself, "I'm telling you! How dare that damned Holy See of Light set its sights on me! What's yours is mine! What's mine is still mine! And they still want to covet my property! Tsk tsk tsk tsk!"
There was silence.
"Alas - how long will it take you to merge? It's so boring. Tomorrow I'm going to meet those thieves who covet my property. They can cheat me but not my money!" Lu Wanyue nagged at Thanatos' pelvis.
She paused while digging, and gestured with her hands, exclaiming, "Wow! Thanatos! Your pelvis is so thin! When he was alive, he must have been a handsome man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist!"
Lu Wanyue looked up and down at the headless skeleton, and heard exclamations from inside the coffin: "Oh my God! Thanatos! Without your head, your entire skeleton is longer than 180cm!"
"Was he this tall when he was alive?"
"Wow! I didn't know you were so tall, rich and handsome! It's worth marrying you!"
Thanatos: ...He just merged his consciousness and went there. He is not really dead.
Everyone can hear it!
Although He didn't understand many of the words, they should be meant as compliments.
The indescribable depths of my consciousness were stirred and filled with joy!
It creates a beautiful glare.
In front of the coffin, there were skulls everywhere.
There is unrest underground.
"Rustle, rustle!" - the sound of growth, what is about to grow?
Countless black mandalas broke through the soil and emerged from the eye sockets of the skulls all over the ground. The black flowers swayed in the wind, dark and decadent.
Sending unpredictable death and love.
Dark romance of Thanatos.
Lu Wanyue suddenly stood up, staring in a daze at the sea of black datura flowers surrounding the coffin and blooming from the skeleton!
She watched as flowers bloomed from the skull that represented death.
Deeply understand that death represents rebirth.
His new born authority.
Lu Wanyue seemed to have thought of something and tentatively opened her hand. A black datura flower blossomed in her palm.
She bent down, stuck the flower between Thanatos' second rib, and whispered, "Thank you."
"I like it very much." She climbed into the coffin and lay down.
The sliding lid of the coffin slowly closed.
-
the next day.
After Lu Wanyue finished the class, she walked around to Ruomande's desk and tapped it gently: "Agreed, tonight?"
"Yes, actually it's not me who invites you alone, but the entire royal family of Karinia wants to invite you to be a guest. I know the beautiful girl Lu Wanyue won't mind, right?" Romand's aqua blue eyes looked at Lu Wanyue without allowing any rejection, as if no one could bear to refuse.
As expected, Lu Wanyue knew it wouldn’t be that simple.
"Of course, it's an honor for me to be invited by the royal family of Carinia." She smiled a worldly smile and laughed.
"Wanyue, that's not true. You are so capable. It is an honor for the entire royal family of Karinia to invite you." Romand smiled meaningfully, as if he was hinting at something.
Lu Wanyue smiled but said nothing, annoyed by such boring conversation.
"Wanyue, I have an advanced magic teleportation scroll, come with me." Ruomande took out a gorgeous scroll as if to show off.
"No, thank you. You can use it yourself. I know where the Royal Castle of Carinia is. See you later!" Lu Wanyue lifted her skirt and turned to leave.
She couldn't stand the Second Prince, and if she stayed any longer she was afraid she would have to shut him up!
Keros had been waiting for a long time, transforming into a gigantic undead black dragon, with wings covering the sky and the sun, and his body ablaze with orchid ghost fires.
"My lord!" Keroth lowered one of his wings to the ground.
Lu Wanyue carefully climbed up along the wings and sat on the black dragon's back.
The blue ghost fire became as soft and docile as a low-temperature flame when it touched her.
On his shoulder is Lukasz’s transformed bat.
She pointed toward the sky.
"set off!"
