Conqueror

Chapter 67



The Death Knight who was about to chopped Fendrel's head became rooted in his place. He could not move, fear clouded him, for the first time since the day he became undead. He felt fear, an emotion that already left his body along with his human shell.

A huge pressure that only those supreme being can produce, but now he was experiencing that pressure that makes him immobile. And the culprit was the enemy, he evenly battling earlier.

'Who the hell is this guy.'

On the other hand, Fendrel was just as shocked as the Death Knight. He was looking at the transparent screen in front of him.

[DING: INTEGRATION PROCESS CONTINUED

90%.... 91%.... 92%....

He doesn't have a clue what was happening, however, one thing he was sure of, the pressure that the Dark Knight felt, was not coming from him, but from the system.

[AS THE INTEGRATION IS PROCESSING, ALL THE BEINGS IN THE VICINITY OF THE USER WILL BECOME IMMOBILE TO ENSURE THE USER'S SAFETY.]

As the integration was proceeding, the pain in his head was also becoming stronger. He stands up and walked closer to the Death Knight. Since the Death Knight can't move, he can't possibly let the chance slip. He wanted to kill the Death Knight.

"I guess... It's not my time to die yet." Fendrel said mockingly, although he felt pain in his head, it still not as close to the pain he felt when he transforms into a demon. Moreover, every 1% needs at least 20 seconds to proceed. So, he still has time to vent his anger, since this guy almost killed him.

"What the hell are you." The Death Knight spoke, you can even hear the fear in his voice.

"Me... I already said that I'm a demon."

Hearing it, the Death Knight calmed down, before he spoke. "Before you kill me, can I ask you one question?"

"Hmmm..." Seeing that there is still a minute before the integration was completed, he agreed. He was also intrigued by what question he would ask.

"Okay." Fendrel spoke.

"Can you tell me, where this dungeon was placed? Is it in the underworld, or the mortal world?"

Hearing it Fendrel's eyebrow arched upward.

"I think, it's in the mortal world." Fendrel said.

Hearing it the Death Knight was shocked again, since, a demon shouldn't be able to come to the mortal world. Well, of course, except for the high-rank demon or being in the underworld. But H he didn't ask another question again.

"Okay... Thank you, for answering my question... You are really a weird one..." The Death Knight, his flame of life flickering, looking at Fendrel.

"Same to you..." In the next moment, he raised his greatsword, then slashed it downward, crushing the Death Knight's skull.

The notification that should notify him, about the quest didn't come out. Fendrel thought that it should be because the system was still in integration process.

He finds a place to sit and waited for the system to finish.

"Didn't know that the system, still wasn't done with his integration process." Fendrel mumbled. When he first got the system, he was soo excited that he immediately pick a race, and didn't saw the integration process was not complete. However, what puzzled him was, what triggered the system to make it possible to continue its integration process.

Even racking his brain, he can't come up with an answer. However, he vaguely remembers at that time, when he was acting like he can't move his body, he was planning to surprise the Death Knight, when it was closed enough, with the demon skill he bought earlier.

However, suddenly, as though something had broken inside him. It's a weird feeling that he can't explain, as though something happened in his soul. On earth, he does not believe in superstitions. Like a god, ghost, or a soul. However, after he comes to this world, that crumble immediately. He wouldn't even be surprised if there's a real god in this world. Because, if the power structure was just the same as the game, then a Tier 8 being was enough to be considered a god.

-------

After some time, the integration process was completed. A series of notifications bombarded Fendrel's mind, making him feel a little dizzy.

[THE INTEGRATION PROCESS IS NOW COMPLETED, ALL THE FUNCTION OF THE SYSTEM IS NOW AVAILABLE. PLEASE PROCEED TO THE FUNCTION SYSTEM... HAPPY GAMING AND GOOD LUCK.]

[YOU LEVEL UP ONE LEVEL]

[QUEST COMPLETED: CLEAR THE GRADE C DUNGEON

REWARD: 1000 GOLD COINS, 100 SUMMON SOLDIERS, 1 SUMMON SUBORDINATE]

[AFTER ABSORBING THE DEATH KNIGHT'S SOUL, THE QUEST FOR THE RACE UPGRADE GOT TRIGGERED]

[RACE UPGRADE QUEST: KILL AN EVIL ALINEMENT BEING AND ABSORB ITS SOUL.

PROCESSING: 1/3]

Seeing all the notifications, he can't help but suck in a cold breath.

"Poor guy, even the dungeon can't protect him from the system." As far as he knows, a dungeon boss will never die a true death. Since the dungeon would just suck the boss's soul back and giving it a new body. However, since his soul was sucked in by the system, he truly died a true death.

Suddenly, the whole place quake. Small debris falling from the ceiling, the whole place was crumbling.

"Ohh, fuck." Fendrel immediately runs towards the Death Knight's throne. At the back of the throne, he saw a silver chest. Without a second thought, he put it in the inventory, and sprint towards the exit.

As soon as he came out, he saw Lily flying towards him.

"Your Majesty!! What is happening?!!" Lily shouted.

"I don't have time to explain! Let's get out of here first." Hearing Fendrel, Lily immediately flies on top of Fendrel's head.

-------

"BOOHOO!!, That was scary Your Majesty." Lily let out a long breath, they already exited the dungeon. They were looking at the entrance of the dungeon that was crumbling like it was closing in.

"Let's go now, we still have a long ahead of us." Fendrel spoke.

"Ehh, Your Majesty, aren't you going to tell me what happened inside in that room." Lily said, pouting.

"I will tell you, on our way home... But first, we need to find a spot, the sun is coming down." Fendrel said, after seeing that it was getting dark.

"Aye, Aye, Your majesty." Lily said, shortly after she was now sleeping on Fendrel's head.

Seeing Lily, Fendrel can't help but smile. He was pretty tired himself, much less Lily who was so fragile.
