"Lord Eshuin, my subordinates have been waiting here for a long time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

On the altar outside the complex magic array, the dark wizard Stein, who was floating in the air, said this.

In the dimly lit hall, flickering flames flickered.

Yes...... I really don't want to think about it, it's still a familiar cobweb, or the original broken castle.

Looking at the familiar bad working environment nearby, and then thinking of the beast-eared maids of the country lord's house, I suddenly had a feeling of wanting to change jobs.

Damn, the identity is wrong, how do they look like [Demon King Candidate].

"Stein, you're doing a good job, you've worked hard all this time. ”

"Lord Eshuin, you have won the award, and your subordinates are just doing what you tell you to do. However, while it is a bit inappropriate to say this at the time of your return, Lord Eshuin, there is something very important for your subordinates to report to you. ”

"yes, well, then gather all the members. Thirty minutes later, the meeting will be held in the conference room. ”

I don't know why, but Stein seems to be speaking in an anxious tone.

Alas.. If you think about it, not only does you not even have a meager salary, but you also have to do a miserable job that never stops, and this thing is really miserable in every sense.

And the rest of the members of the Miscellaneous Five stood behind Stein.

Fivesome?

Something is wrong, count carefully, Stein, Alice, Skeleton Soldier A and B, and Paul holding his head......

How could it be a Headless Horseman!

"Hey, can anyone explain it to me. Why do I remember that when Paul-san died, it seemed to be a whole corpse, but now, what is this, how can it be a headless horseman-?!"

With that, I glanced at the people who were stunned, hoping to find some clues.

Upon hearing my question, Skeleton Soldier A and B, as well as Alice, suddenly shivered, turned their heads and hummed a little song.

These three guys......

With the qualifications of a strong man of Paul's level, after a well-prepared undead transformation ceremony, he can transform into a high-level undead like a death knight, which I can understand.

But the so-called Headless Horseman can barely be regarded as an incomplete death knight to be exact.

As for why it's incomplete, it's because the cause of the Headless Horseman is too harsh.

The reason for such a thing as the Headless Horseman is that the corpse of the undead does not have a head at the time, and at the same time is very powerful, has a very small chance of being successfully transformed and eventually becomes this legendary creature.

It doesn't seem like a difficult condition, but how can it be said to be a legendary creature?

Because after all, the head is the source of the soul!

The source of the soul is broken, and it is natural that it will not be able to connect after being transformed into an undead.

It's better to say that it's not good to just transform the head.

One can imagine how difficult it is to become a headless horseman, there are many undead who have only been transformed into a head after the transformation has failed, and they have already formed a certain undead race called "Floating Heads".

Therefore, only those who are extremely resilient and strong can become headless horsemen.

The worst thing is that as long as the guys who have successfully transformed into death knights, in addition to their heads, whether they have severed their hands or feet, even if they have no body, they can be grafted with necromancy afterwards.

Stare at............

"Alice, you must know something, you say. ”

"Huh...... No, I don't know, Alice doesn't know anything, Uncle Bone, it's useless for you to ask me, hehe. ”

Hey, you're big, this werewolf Lori is even embarrassed to laugh.

Under the attack of my generation's eyes, it was clear that no one asked, but Alice, who was in a cold sweat on her forehead, suddenly said:

"Ai, Alice suddenly remembered that there was still something to do, since I had seen Uncle Bone come back safely, yes, that's it, that's it, I'll go to work first, Bone ......"

"Don't worry, it's not too late to go after talking about this first. You don't want to run, you guy!"

I immediately refused Alice's request, and Lori the werewolf turned around and tried to escape, but I caught her.

This guy must be the culprit who didn't run away.

"Let's talk about it, be lenient in confession, and strict in resisting. ”

Hearing me say this, Alice, who was caught by me, died and lowered her head.

Just when I was curious about why the werewolf Lori was so happy, Alice suddenly blushed and twisted and pinched her body......

"That's it. After you did that kind of thing to other people, Uncle Bone, Alice thought that Uncle Bone would take that and that, restraining people from moving, and it hurt so much that they could only cry on Uncle Bone's sheets......"

！！！

What is it, what is this, this Lori still wants to quibble.

Actually used this kind of subordinate method against my generation! Obviously it's just a little Lori.,Don't be too arrogant.。

"Hey, you little Lori. Remind you in advance, your Uncle Bones is a skeleton! Think about it a little, are you really thinking about talking about skeletons? ”

How could such a restrictive picture come to me?!

Damn, it's better to say that I really want to do this, after all, the reason why I want to become a demon king is to experience this shameless life-!

boom

"Wow. It hurts, Uncle Bone, don't be angry, it was my sister in the Book of the Dead who taught me that......"

…………

I knocked on Alice, and it turned out to be a terrible message, ah...... A certain aunt with a level of trouble comparable to the Waste Demon Sword has awakened.

Ignoring my shocked expression, Alice also bowed her head in self-reproach, and slowly stated her guilt:

"Hmm...... That day, I thought Uncle Essine would go to the underground altar, and at the bottom of the stairs leading to the underground altar, I put some slime slime in it, hoping to take the opportunity to get the key to the laboratory after you slipped, uncle. ”

This guy ......

I'm underestimating Alice, and although this guy seems to be natural, he actually seems to be a beginner planner.

"And then, that's it. The skeleton uncles slipped, and then Paul's brother's head accidentally hit the stone pillar, and he was twisted back and couldn't get it back, so there was no way, so we just converted. ”

After saying this, Alice seemed to teach me a lesson:

"So Uncle Bone, you really misunderstood Alice, in fact, Paul's brother's head was cut off by himself!"

As Alice finished speaking, I turned my head slightly to look at Paul, who was holding his head.

Well...... Indeed, there are obvious twist marks on the neck, and the smooth cut is indeed caused by a sharp weapon, if nothing else, it should have something to do with the giant sword that Paul is carrying behind him.

I'm sorry...... My Lori is really causing you trouble.

It's so sad, I haven't really experienced the feeling of being able to see my hips when I look down.

Woo, how could anyone be unlucky to this extent, if you think about it like this, the Headless Horseman is actually quite good, and it's so sad to look wherever you want.

"Lord Eshuin, please don't blame Lord Alice, my subordinates are very satisfied with their current body, and they really don't dare to expect more. Anyway, thank you for transforming me into an immortal. ”

As I mourned for the hapless Paul, he walked up to me and said so.

Kneeling on one knee and performing a standard chivalric salute.

"Well, Paul, you can tell the truth, you don't need to hold on. It's impossible to let you kill yourself, but if the Undead Fortress is strong enough, I'll consider reincarnating you. ”

I was a little surprised, I thought that if he was the firstborn son of the Holy See, he would be disgusted to be immortal.

Not to mention being transformed into a pitiful character like the Headless Horseman, even if it is suicide, it seems to be a matter of course. But when you look at it, it seems to be the opposite.

Although I can forcibly order him not to die through the soul connection, this is not a long-term solution after all.

So when I was in White Oak, I thought a lot about how to convince him, but in the end I couldn't figure out a good solution.

"Lord Eshuin, are you thinking about my attitude? Don't worry, I was a knight of the Holy See before, and I always had the consciousness of being killed by the undead, and I take this matter for granted. ”

After a pause, Paul said solemnly, "If I had the chance, I would have killed you without hesitation." ”

Paul, this guy seems to be unexpectedly sensible.

Yes, if he can think so, then the arguments I prepared earlier can be regarded as mediocre self-disturbance, and it seems that the Undead Fortress is finally coming to a reliable guy.

"And...... If it weren't for you, I'd probably never see Melia again. ”

Paul looked at his body, sighed helplessly, and smiled happily.

Well, that's it, this guy is perfect.

I wanted to habitually say "explode, let's charge", but suddenly it occurred to me that he was sacrificed to save his fiancée.

And the cause of death does seem to have something to do with the explosion......

Hawkers,This type of sunny man doesn't seem to be so annoying.。 At least this kind of affectionate and righteous guy is not much better than Spendham's kind of goods.

It's just that you're not an immortal now, even if you're married......

I'm embarrassed to ask, but that's it, can you still do things?

What to do, I'm embarrassed to ask, but I'm curious if the Headless Horseman retains that function.

"As a thank you, I will fulfill my duty as an immortal under your command. I just hope you can let me protect Melia in secret, I don't want to be with her anymore, as long as she can be happy, I'm willing to pay any price-!"

Paul held his head firmly and thanked me from the bottom of his heart.

Woo, I'm starting to get moved, Paul is really amazing, compared to a magic sword that whistles at young girls all day long, this guy is simply the kind of peerless good man.

"Paul, you'll be with her eventually. ”

Looking at me in amazement, Paul smiled contentedly and whispered, "Thank you." ”

Because of this, the Undead Fortress has finally ushered in the first truly high-level combat power.
