"Now it's just a matter of ・・・・・・・・・・・" All the light that flew out of the young man's eyes gradually returned to the young man's eyes, and the countless feedback information made him a little dizzy, but the pain when all the knowledge, memories, and experiences of a world were imprinted on the soul before, this was nothing at all!

Boom!

"Your Excellency!" the tired Curia pretended to enter, but the starlight in the young man's eyes made him stunned for a moment, "You ・・・・・・・・・・・"

"I know, it's because of the Dark Mage, we almost got into a fight, but he seems to be afraid of someone in the city, so he didn't make a move. The young man closed his eyes, although it was inherent magic, but the eye of illusion was arcane in a sense, and it was still very different from the magic of this world.

"Oh, you know everything, so can you please ・・・・・・・・・・ with me?"

Kuria knew that the force in front of him could fight with himself (mistakenly), and the young man who could do magic was by no means an idle person, just with his star-like eyes just now, his magic attainment was definitely very high, at least the magician next to him would not do such magic.

"This ・・・・・・・・・・・" The young man was a little hesitant, if he made a move, he would definitely be exposed, and then he, an unidentified person, would soon be investigated, if he didn't make a move, the movement of the city would definitely be detected by the church in this world, and he would still be found on himself at that time!

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, we'll do our best to hide your save!" Kuria almost knelt down to the young man at this point, but it was obvious that he saw the young man's unspeakable secret.

"Really?"

"Don't worry, as long as I don't talk to the old man, no one will know!"

Curia said, and gave the young man a knightly salute, which represented the knight's dignity and lifelong credibility when he made a promise, and if he broke this oath, he would be forever disqualified as a knight, and would be branded as a traitor, and spurned by all people (note: this is what the young man learned from the library materials).

"Eh~ Since you have made such a heavy oath, then I will help you!" The young man sighed helplessly, opened his eyes, and the eyes that were full of starlight just now had changed back to their original state.

"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Naturally, Curia was overjoyed by the young man's promise, but the most important thing now was the dark magician!

"No thanks, as long as you don't let me be exposed at that time, I'm already very tired~" The young man's last sentence seemed to have some deep meaning, coupled with his age-appropriate sense of oldness and haggard eyes, which made people wonder what he had experienced in the past (the end of the world).

"Your Excellency・・・・・・・・・・" Curia looked at the young man's back with a little complexity, although he didn't know the name of the other party, but judging from his self-proclaimed traveler, it was estimated that he was a pioneer who explored areas beyond the human map, maybe he encountered something (something like the destruction of the team), which made him no longer enthusiastic and looked physically and mentally exhausted.

――――In the main hall of the central city of Alista――

"Sure enough, Aiden, after all these years, have you finally come to take ownership of this city?" the old city lord opened his eyes, which had become blurred, and the next moment a broken spear pierced his abdomen, and the pain in his abdomen made the old city lord can't help but let out a painful wail.

"Yes, I'm back! I should have come back a long time ago, twenty years of suffering should have ended long ago, and the Duchy of Kureah shouldn't have continued to degenerate at the hands of that man!"

The white-haired man in a black robe walked out of the shadows, holding a dark green gem that emitted a strange aura in his hand, the arms worn from the robe were like dried corpses, and the chin faintly visible under the hood was also too thin to look like a human shape, and the two blue lights in the shadow of the hood seemed to indicate that this person was no longer human・・・・・・・・・・

"Undead! ahem・・・・・・・・・ you ・・・・・・・ this guy actually ・・・・・・・・ follow in the footsteps of that taboo!" the old city lord shouted angrily, but he could only let out a feeble roar when he was nailed to his seat by the spear, "Magician, no! No professional can become a king, this is a rule set by the gods! Not to mention that you are still an undead who everyone can be punished!"

"Heh, old fellow, your notion is outdated, outside the territory, we Adriatic Cult (the cult in the book) have found allies!"

"Soon, our Lord God, the great Nova, will come to earth, and the gods of your mouth will become our slaves because of the loss of faith when we conquer all mankind!!"

"You won't make it・・・・・・・・・・・・" The old castle lord, who had lost too much blood, could only moan weakly.

"Yes・・・・・・・・・" The man instantly appeared beside the old city lord, grabbed the old city lord's head, met his unyielding eyes, and said, "But you will become my slave now!"

"What are you going to do? No, no, no, no!!!!!!!"

The dark green gem emitted a green gas, constantly invading the old city lord's body, as if there were countless maggots wriggling in the old city lord's epidermis, and the original old skin became even paler, bloodless pale・・・・・・・・・・

"That's it, Aiden!" The old man who was called the old man by Kuria suddenly appeared in the hall, maybe because the destruction of the eastern district was too strict, and he might be late, but his appearance at this time was tantamount to timely rain for the old city lord!

"Well・・・・・・・・ you're here, my old friend・・・・・・・・・・" Aiden said with a smirk looking back at the old man.

"Ah~ I didn't expect you to disappear for so long and fall to such a point・・・・・・・・・・・" The old man shook his head with a disappointed expression, but his disappointed expression seemed like a mockery of himself to Aiden!

"Hmph, depraved, I'm here to gain more power, that weak and incompetent king should have stepped down a long time ago, and the untouchables who supported the 'deposed king' should all die!" Aiden roared angrily.

"You won't ・・・・・・・・"

"Shut up, old fellow!" the old lord was knocked unconscious by Aiden's punch before he could finish his sentence. Although his arms were as thin as a dried corpse, the power contained in them was enough to stun the old and frail city lord.

"My old friend, you have become more extreme, although the throne is not yours, but at least this city is yours in the first place, and he is still your brother・・・・・・・・・・" the old man said with a look of regret.

"Phew, I have such an older brother, he took away all my dues when I was studying alchemy, impersonated my name, and even tried to erase my existence when I was about to take it back! If he hadn't smeared me as a black magician, I would have become like this now?!!!!"

Aiden roared angrily, and at the same time lifted his hood, and his face like a dried corpse appeared in front of the old man, like a completely lifeless corpse, white hair as pale as snow, and his originally agile eyes were replaced by a pair of burning soul flames, and his whole body exuded the death aura exclusive to the undead!

"No・・・・・・・・・ my old friend・・・・・・・・・・" The old man took two steps back in disbelief, he never expected that what the old city lord had done would actually force him to this point.

"I want to use this city as a base to turn the entire Duchy of Kureaya into a paradise for the undead, and let the Adriatic Sect to which I am loyal re-enter the territory, no!!!!!

"I won't let you succeed!" The old man who was shocked by Aiden's purpose was not idle, he stomped his right foot, and a silver-blue magic array suddenly appeared in the air behind the old man, "You also know the power of my [Silver・Moon・Magic・Bullet] (Silver Moon's magic bullet), if I give up, I can still open the net・・・・・・・・"

"Do you think I'm the same as before?"

"What? Hmm・・・・・・・・・" After seeing Aiden's smiling expression, the originally confident old man suddenly felt a terrifying magic force that was enough to kill him was constantly condensing, and the huge magical pressure made him half-kneel on the ground, and the magic array behind him was also shattered.

"What the hell did you do?!"

"My brother~ how did you treat me in the first place? I will return it to you twice today!" Aiden did not answer the old man's question, but turned back to the unconscious old city lord.

"What are you going to do?!stop!!!!" The sweaty old man shouted in horror, because he couldn't stand up under the pressure of the magic power, and he couldn't even use magic, so he could only watch Aiden press his hand on the old city lord's forehead.

【Demon・sacrifice】!

"Ahh!!!!!!!!!!h

Suddenly, the old city lord's mouth let out a roar like that of a beast, no・・・・・・・ no, it was not the roar of a beast, it was more like the roar of a creature from hell, it was ・・・・・・・・・ demon!

"You actually signed a contract with the demon! You guy ・・・・・・・・・・・" Even the old man can't call Aiden an old friend, the Aiden in front of him is no longer a human being, but an evil being called the undead!

"Are you still qualified to argue in front of me, Clinos, who is the strong and who is the weak now?" Aiden said to the old man, perhaps the old man had said to him, and at this time, seeing the old man so 'ugly', he naturally had to be sarcastic.

At the same time, the body of the old city lord behind Aiden began to swell unnaturally, the luxurious city lord's costume was instantly shattered, and the half of the spear that had been inserted in the old city lord's abdomen was also bounced away by the suddenly swollen flesh and body, and landed beside the old man.

A roar similar to that of a sheep and a beast came from the old castle lord's mouth, the swollen muscles began to grow blue-purple hair, and a lizard-like tail appeared behind him, and the whole head began to squirm strangely, sharp horns grew on the forehead, the heels gradually became sharper as if there was an extra toe-like claw, and the front toes also became three-fingered claws, although the hands were still humanoid, but they grew unusually sharp inky blue nails, and when the body completely became demonic, the face that could still distinguish the appearance of the old castle lord also became a face similar to that of a giant wolf, with sharp fangs and toxin-like saliva・・・・・・・・・・

The monster in front of me is no longer the old city lord, but a creature from hell - a demon!
