Chapter 240: A Tragic Past

Sensing the power of power rising from the West, the Demon Kings Belel and Azmodan left the Burning Hell to conquer the Sanctuary once and for all. And he left Kaltim in search of more answers, and finally came to New Tristem.

However, it is not as dark as it is rumored, and even the old town of Tristelm, which was attacked by Skeletron, has been re-established, and the humans there seem to be doing better than the rest of the region.

Remember, the last time Zal heeded the call and came to Trissym! He was nearly killed by the Demon Queen. And, no matter how much he didn't want to admit it, he fell in love then!

This rarely happens to a necromancer, and this mood also makes him weak and vulnerable. At that time, giving up his lover was the most difficult decision he had ever made in his life, but he had to do it, and he had to do it alone.

Zal is so eager to return to Trisstem! Perhaps, his lover is the real reason why he went to Trisham this time. If so, he broke the basic principles of being a necromancer, put his own needs before his mission, and made a terrible mistake.

In Trisham, the people who live in peace make him feel a growing sense of unease. While the vast majority of the inhabitants were a little afraid of his necromancer's identity, he had gathered enough gossip to sort out some valuable clues.

It has been told that an underground religious sect, the True God Sect, is rapidly gathering strength and adherents. The relationship between the sect and the Templar Order became increasingly strained.

It didn't take much time for Zal to find his love! Zar tells himself that his lover must have important information that can help him find the answers he wants. Unfortunately, all he found was a wisp of ghosts.

But Bart didn't believe his explanation at all, he knew the real reason hidden in Zal's heart, that lover had never married.

Zal's lover said that she forgave him for leaving, and she had been holding on to hope, waiting for him to return, and never gave up for a minute. That's when it was. The monster spread its black wings and pounced on her from the night.

Zal shuddered involuntarily, and only Bart could have noticed this slight mood swing on Zal. The skeleton was more closely related to him than any other being, and the shudder reminded him of his weakness that had only recently been exposed.

The thing that really made him regret was not that he couldn't save his lover in time, but what happened after that.

He should be more sober and not allow himself to be influenced by personal feelings. This world is under a new threat. The soul of Zal's lover told him that the many other dangers were insignificant compared to it.

The sole purpose of this threat is to erase the existence of humanity forever!

Zal did not question his lover's admonitions, and he would never doubt her. His mission is here, in the midst of this ruin.

A month had passed, and the pain of losing a loved one had only intensified, and the necromancers should not have seen death as a tragedy, but Zal only felt a grief that no one could match. It was his undying love for his lover that brought him to this place abandoned by everyone. Tristalm.

"If you can't see the road, just wait, and the road will naturally find you!" This is the last word of Zal's lover to Zal when his soul dissipates and returns to heaven!

"You say...... Are you pinching farem? I hadn't heard of your existence when Trissym was destroyed some time ago, and at that time...... Where are you? The skeleton was still talking, and it woke Zal from his dark memories.

"Please forgive my traveling companion for being too reckless......" Zar glared at Skeleton Bart viciously, apologetically, "but in such a thing...... If it were me, I would ask you the same question. ”

Necromancers are not trusted in many places, and their black magic is often misunderstood and feared. Necromancers wander between life and death. Knowing how to manipulate the line that separates these two worlds, the person who can awaken the ghost will certainly not have many friends with the living.

Of course, Zal is used to this kind of reaction from people. However, Ayaka and Komac did not show a look of disgust on their faces, as if they were no strangers to the necromancers of the ancient inheritance.

"I'm sorry, but when we got the news, it was too late! …… Now we are here according to the guidance of the wise man Dicakane, and search for the source of the chaos......" It was only at this moment that Komac put away his weapon and stepped forward to explain, "My name is Komac, and I am from the Templar Order!" This is Berta the Barbarian, Lesya of the Holy Army, Miss Ayaka...... We were joined by a powerful arcane mage, and Skeletron was the one he destroyed alone! ”

Komac still admires Haoran's strength, and his self-introduction surprised Zhal! Other than the four people in the field, the Templars, the Barbarians, the Holy Army, and a seemingly ordinary, beautiful woman, he was unaware of the presence of anyone else.

And killing Skeletron alone, what kind of concept is this, just a demon queen almost killed him at the beginning, which means that the arcane mage must be a high-level peak professional, a level 30 existence!

"Well, I wonder if you can show me......" Ayaka looked like a shy girl, glancing at Skeleton Baal and the necromancer Zal, her curiosity about ghosts clearly outweighed her disgust.

Zar hesitated for a moment, then handed the skeleton over.

"Thank you very much......" Ayaka thanked her and spun the skeleton Bart in her hand, and his movements triggered a strong reaction from the skeleton, prompting a series of complaints.

Ayaka quickly returned the skeleton to the necromancer, wiping her fingers from her coat as if it had something dirty on it.

"I didn't expect that in addition to the illusory spirit body that condensed into a ghost, the human soul could actually attach to other things...... I've always been curious about souls and stuff, but I've never seen a ghost possessed by a skeleton! Ayaka smiled and explained.

Zal looked stunned when he saw Ayaka's bewitching smile, and was about to say something, when he was interrupted by a commotion near the cave at the bottom of the mountain.

"Boom!"

The deafening roar was followed by screams and fights, followed by a series of weapons crashing! (To be continued......)
