Marosas was trapped in a bone prison built out of thin air, unable to move. Although the previous battle with Geaus, the Lord of Might, had consumed a lot of his magic power, Marosas knew in his heart that this was no excuse for his defeat.

Although the undead who appeared later was a low-level skeleton, his strength was not as inferior as his appearance, but as unfathomable as the endless abyss. Hellfire, a fourth-tier magic, is arguably the most destructive magic it can unleash, but the black flame, which melts rocks as well, does no damage to skeletons. The only explanation for this irrationality is that the skeletons use some sort of higher-class defensive magic.

The blue light that surrounds the skeleton and the ability to neutralize powerful magic is just, just like it was back then.

Strong emotions that did not correspond to the identity of the immortal surfaced in his heart, and he seemed to feel his heart beating violently again. Of course, it was impossible for the heart that had long since dried up and rotted to beat again, so this feeling was only a memory from the depths of his mind.

Triggered by a specific situation, long-ago memories are reawakened.

Although more than 200 years have passed, at this moment he recalls it as clearly as yesterday. It was a wizened old man who didn't look like a threat at all, and the old man was fighting against five mages from the mage city of Azdaria.

Even if it is said that it can completely destroy a city, it is not an exaggeration to activate the super magic, but under the destructive power that can shatter the earth and tear the air, the old man walked over as if nothing happened, and his body was surrounded by this blue light.

Surprised and frightened, this seemingly weak old man killed four elite Magus quite easily. And Marosas, as the weakest man in this five-person team, miraculously survived.

The old man walked past Malotas, who had lost all his fighting spirit and was already slumped on the ground, as if he didn't exist, and didn't even look at him.

Although the old man's steps were no different from those of ordinary old men, they were the same as those of ordinary old men, but at that time, it was the pace of death that showed absolute power. The slow back seems to tell the words "with your strength you are not worthy to die in my hands".

It wasn't until the old man's back completely disappeared from sight that Marosas was freed from extreme fear, and at that moment his heart changed, and he did not feel anger or sadness at the death of his companion, but only longing and worship in his heart. Worship the power of such an absolute king, and look forward to the kind of bearing that overrides all things.

It was the first and only time that Malotas felt an irresistible force, like a man on a simple raft facing a huge tsunami. Any fighting spirit will be broken at the first time, and all you can feel in your heart is helplessness and despair.

So, in pursuit of the old man who had plunged him into endless fear, he left Azdalia, the city that had given him glory.

In order to make the old man recognize his strength, he began to pursue greater power by any means, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to make enemies of all living creatures, and used forbidden magic to transform himself into an immortal.

At last he was able to see the old man again.

"There is a holy relic hidden in this land called the 'Eternal Night Suit', find it for me."

Malosas said as he made it clear to the old man that he wanted to follow him.

So, for 100 years, Marosas carefully searched every inch of land here in order to complete the task given by the old man who was called the "enemy of the world".

However, before Marosas could successfully obtain the holy relic, the old man died, and was defeated by the dragon knights from the Holy Light Empire on the day of reincarnation.

The death of the man who was able to lead him to the pinnacle of his power left Marosas confused again, and at this moment, the underground mausoleum that might hide the "Eternal Night Cloak" appeared. Since it was the treasure that the man wanted to obtain, it must contain great power, thinking like this, Marosas, who was about to go to the mausoleum, agreed to Dennis's request to annihilate all the exploration team.

The situation of having to rely on oneself to continue groping on one's own without someone to guide oneself seems to have taken a turn for the better because of the appearance of a mysterious skeleton.

Although it was only after a short battle, he could already deeply feel that the strength of the skeleton was definitely much higher than his own, and he was also an immortal, this was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity, and the person who could guide him to appear again, this was God's favor for him.

So, manipulating the chains through the cracks in the bone prison, Marosas wrapped his arms around the skeleton's arm in ecstatic joy as if he had grasped the key to unlock the Endless Treasure Vault.

——————————————————————————————————

Marosas is really a stubborn guy, he has been imprisoned in a bone prison, and he still has the fighting spirit. I looked at the chains that were tightly wrapped around my arm and furrowed my non-existent brow. In that case, I have to destroy it, after all, he already knows my disguise.

"It seems that I will have to destroy you completely, then, farewell, Immortal Demon King."

I pronounced the death sentence of Marosas in a cold voice that I felt handsome, and at the same time unleashed the magic within me.

I thought that Marosas would let out a frightened cry, but unexpectedly, Marosas let out a sound similar to seeing a wonderful performance, "This level of magic is amazing".

This kind of statement without a sense of crisis really makes one wonder if Marosas knows that he is in a life-or-death situation. Really, I suddenly feel so unmotivated.

"Show me more magic! Be sure to let me follow you! ”

Extremely sudden words, mixed with excited laughter, wait, did I hear it wrong, he just said to follow me?

The hesitant emotion caused the magic gathered in his hand to destroy Malotas with a single blow collapsed in an instant.

"What did you just say?"

To make sure I had misheard, I waved my hand and lifted the bone prison.

"Please let me follow you!"

Malosas let go of the chains that bound around me, knelt down in front of me, and said in a voice that was quite sincere.

“……”

We seemed to be fighting just now, so suddenly, I wasn't mentally prepared at all, did I deliberately say this to let me down my guard?

"Please grant my request, and as a sign of sincerity, I am willing to enter into a contract of magic."

Seeing that I didn't react to his words, and guessing the doubts in my heart, Marosas activated the contract magic, and a red magic circle appeared at his feet.

"I, Marosas, would like to serve you as my master, please accept my contract!"

With the help of the magical knowledge in his mind, it was not wrong to judge that this was indeed a magic array that activated contract magic. (The so-called contract magic is the magic used to establish a subordinate relationship, and the party that is established as the master can kill the subordinate at any time through contract magic, which is generally the ultimate means used by the superior to control his subordinates.) ）

Ah, I don't know what medicine is sold in Marosas's gourd, but it seems that accepting contract magic doesn't hurt me.

"Thank you so much, what is your name?"

After making a pact with me, Malotas stood up again and asked me.

"My name is Kilgaru, that, why did you suddenly say you want to follow me?"

"Hahaha, because if it were you, you should be able to guide me in my quest for greater power, please take care of me in the future, Mr. Kilgaru!"

Huh? Teacher?

In this way, it seems that in a daze, he has obtained the companion of the undead demon king Marosas, which should be considered a good thing.
