Thud~
The second Head Priest's lifeless body dropped to the group. It was as if his body had lost every single drop of blood, even though there was not a single wound on his body.
Gabriel observed the Head Priest's lifeless body briefly before observing the surroundings.
"According to her, the Church of Flas should have around thirty Head Priests. Even if Lerian took half of them, there should at least be around fifteen here. Only two ca up. It looks like they aren't taking things seriously..."
Gabriel had sowhat of a disappointnt on his face. Only two Head Priests ca up to check, separating from the main group while he wanted more. In the end, he decided to just take things slow.
He used a knife to slice his finger a bit, letting it bleed.
The blood droplet fell on the forehead of the Head Priest while Gabriel used the Wordless Chant. The blood droplet entered the forehead of the dead Head Priest of Flas, creating tiny blood threads that spread inside the dead body.
"Arise!" Gabriel's calm voice echoed in the surroundings as a mysterious power of death flooded the body of the Head Priest.
As the power flooded inside the body of the dead priest, his body started changing sohow.
Gabriel had already used the spell on an ordinary Mage of Flas before, however the reaction was quite different last ti, which made him even more surprised now. The body of the ordinary priest hadn't changed even after he was turned into an Undead.
The only thing different last ti was that the Mark of Flas had disappeared. That was what disappointed Gabriel imnsely before. However, this ti was different.
Now that Gabriel used the spell on a Head Priest whose body had been nourished by the Divine Flas of the Church, the body changes were sowhat different.
The Mark of Flas on the back of the Head Priest of Flas hadn't disappointed. It just changed! The shape was still the sa. Just the colour of the mark had changed from red to pitch black.
The hair of the Holy Priest also changed, becoming longer. His hair changed to a beautiful shade of Silver, just like the moon. The body still looked lifeless, but sohow, it looked stronger than before, as if the Head Priest's body muscles had increased.
On the forehead of the Head Priests, a strange mark appeared. Even though Gabriel didn't do it intentionally, subconsciously the mark on the forehead had taken shape similar to all the marks that were left on the Nuns when he bound them to him. The mark was that of a Bleeding Moon!
"Intriguing... Why did this body go through different changes than the last body? With the last body, it was as if I just brought back a dead to life who was no more than a lifeless human. However, this ti, it was as if the person had thoroughly evolved, basking in the energy of death...?"
The Head Priest of Flas who had not turned into a Soldier of Death opened his eyes. For so reason, his mind was completely blank. However, there was sothing deep inside him that was telling him that no matter what, he had to serve the young man near him, no matter what.
"Could it be because the Army of Undead is a unique spell which works best on people who are stronger?" Gabriel wondered, observing his first proper Soldier of Death. "This is a Core Tier Spell, so this might be the reason... But doesn't that an the hundreds of Undead in Karyk's army were all as strong as a Head Priest?! That strength..."
The spell was specifically made for powerful people. It was as if using this spell on weaker people was just a waste of ti and space! Gabriel was sure that Karyk wouldn't have wasted the spell like that. That could only an that, in the army of Undead that the Saint Knight saw for the first ti, all the mbers were at least as strong as a Head Priest that he controlled now!
"With this kind of strength and army, just what exactly happened to him... And what happened to his army? If that kind of army ever makes a return, wouldn't that an the entire world can fall on their feet?"
Gabriel now had two Undead Soldiers. He only paid attention to one of them. Just to test his theory, he moved closer to the first Head Priest.
He ca here for sothing else but if he could get over ten Death Knights, he believed that this was the best outco!
"The Church Formation restricts more than half my spiritual strength which makes it harder and more ti consuming to use each spell. If I didn't have Drain Touch, it would've been quite troubleso."
He commanded the Death Knight to keep an eye on surroundings to make sure that no one disturbed him.
He placed his bleeding finger on the forehead of the other Head Priest, casting the [Army of Undead].
****
"Those two still didn't return?"
Back in the eting, the other Head Priests started getting impatient. The more they stayed there, the more uncomfortable they felt, as if a poisonous snake was getting closer to them.
They couldn't wait anymore. Just to be on the safer side, all of them decided to check out personally just what was happening upstairs.
All the Head Priests rushed upstairs.
****
After barely a few minutes of hard work, he finished the spell successfully, creating another Death Knight.
The only thing he still didn't know was if the Death Knights could cast any spells or not. They had the Mark of Flas, but it was different from the usual Mark of Flas in colour. It was more like a modification so he wasn't sure if they could still use that elent.
After creating a second Death Knight, he wanted to ask them to try a spell. Unfortunately, it was also around that ti that he heard so footsteps rushing upstairs.
"So they finally decided to co out," Gabriel muttered, keeping an eye on the stairs.
He raised the Ancestral Staff of Necromancy in the direction of the stairs. "If I don't worry about blowing up your bodies, it would've been much easier to just use the Wrath of Undead. What a pity...'
"Soul Explosion!" Gabriel used the fifth spell in the Book of Necromancy. A spirit ca flying out of his ring, rushing straight toward the stairs.
Even though he couldn't see anyone there yet, he made sure to ti things just right.
The Head Priests were almost upstairs. However, just as they turned around the spiralling stairs, they saw an evil spirit flying in their direction, screeching.
Boom~
