Chapter 229 - Undead Demons
A few hours passed and Cerberus was still gathering the dead demons.
He was truly exhausted, and he was starving. He wanted to eat the demons in front of him, but Zach had ordered him not to.
However, as ti passed, Cerberus' sanity decreased. He sniffed the body of a demon and licked it.
He opened his mouth to eat the body, thinking no one would ever know it. But Zach's words rang in his ears and he got back to work again.
The garden was filled with dead demons, but there were still hundreds of thousands of dead demons.
Cerberus walked to the portal under the broken gazebo and tried to enter it, but it was too small for him. So he waited for Zach or Aria to co out of the portal, so he could inform Zach about the progress.
A few minutes later, Aria ca out of the portal to buy food for Zach. And Cerberus inford her about the situation.
Aria called out to Zach, and he ca out of the portal with a surprised look on his face.
Zach turned to Cerberus and asked, "how many dead demon bodies do you think there are?"
[I am… not sure. I could have counted them, but most of the bodies were severed, and impossible to guess the body count.]
"Well, it doesn't matter since we will know soon."
Zach walked to the pile of the dead demons and placed his hands on the one closest to him.
Then, he uttered, "Arise."
Zach could feel his MP getting sucked at a fast rate and his body heating up for so reason.
[Attempts successful!]
Zach was used to getting his MP sucked since he used it in DT and summoning the magic weapon, but that was nothing compared to what he was currently feeling.
However, that feeling soon stopped when Zach ran out of MP.
'I had nearly 10,000 MP, and this process sucked all of it…' Zach uttered inwardly.
He wasn't truly surprised, he was simply curious as to how many demons he was able to revive with 10,000 MP.
The dead demons' bodies changed their form and turned into the black body with golden cracks all over their bodies. They all knelt in front of Zach and waited for their master's order.
"Stand in the line according to your ranks," Zach ordered.
300 rank 1 demons gathered in one place.
100 rank 2 demons gathered in another place.
50 rank 3 demons gathered on the side.
10 rank 4 demons gathered on the other side.
5 rank 5 demons gathered in the center.
"Hmm~" Zach humd in wonder as he tried to calculate how much MP was used to revive them according to their ranks.
'So, rank 1 demon used 10 MP each; 3000 MP for 300 demons. Rank 2 used 20 MP each, so 2000 MP for 100 demons. Rank 3 used 50 MP each, so 2500 MP for 50 of them. Rank 4 used 100 Mp each, so 1000 MP for 10 of them. 500 for rank 5 demons, 2500 for five of them.'
"I am not saying they are less, but I want more." Zach pondered for a while and muttered, "But then they will also take a huge amount of MP if I use them in fighting."
Since the demons had no core, there was a limited ti to revive them. Once the ti had passed, Zach would no longer be able to use them.
"Most of the rank 1 demons are out of ti. And there are only 6 hours left for the rest of them." Zach turned to Cerberus and the demons with an amused look on his face.
Then, he turned to the demons and said, "You lots, go into my shadow. I have to save as much MP as I can."
All the demons vanished before Zach's eyes as they went into Zach's shadow.
"Cerberus…" Zach called out to Cerberus.
[Yes, my liege.]
"Did you eat any of the demons?" Zach asked with a curious look on his face.
[No, my liege. I would never go against your orders,] Cerberus replied.
"Good. As a reward, you can eat all the demons in the capital. But you can't eat a single one from the garden. I am going to cultivate more MP, and I will be back after 6 hours."
Zach entered the portal after saying, "I want my army of demons."
SIGH!
Aria sighed and walked around the capital.
"The buildings should automatically get repaired after 24 hours…" Aria muttered as she walked past the broken houses and buildings.
When Zach had used the wrath of the Phoenix in the restaurant, he had blown up the corner room, but it was rebuilt the next day after 24 hours had passed.
"The portal should too, otherwise players wouldn't be able to ascend or descend."
Aria made her way to the restaurant they always went to, knowing well that it could have been destroyed in the war, and it was.
"I guess, we are skipping dinner too…" Aria muttered.
Aria turned around to return to the portal, but so NPC called out to her and gave her so food.
"Please, share it with Lord Zach," they said, "It's the dish he always orders."
"Where did you… get this food?" Aria asked with a puzzled look on her face.
The NPCs were the ones working in the restaurant, so they had gotten familiar with Zach quite well.
"We just need ingredients to make them. So we can cook food anywhere, and the building is only for eating," the restaurant owner said.
Aria thanked them and returned to her domain. There she heard Zach singing a lullaby to Aurora while stroking her hair.
Aria smiled after seeing that, recalled what Aurora had told her when they were in the sea realm. It was when Zach had gone with Aquarius to the sea temple.
"Please take care of Zach in case sothing happens to in the near future," Aurora had said.
To which Aria had replied with, "I don't have any reason to do that, and even if I do, I won't take care of him. You better do that yourself."
Of course, Aurora had no idea this would happen to her. But she was ready for anything. After all, they were in a death ga.
