Chapter 258 A Hot Lich!



Chapter 258 A Hot Lich!

That was Damian's initial thought. Everything should be alright as long as no one unsealed the Lich. It was easy to say that but impossible to know if some idiot hadn't freed the Lich.

Humans were stupid. Damian knew that well. Despite the revelation, he remained in the shadows, waiting for his opportunity to strike when they least expected.

"Let's keep moving," Vance said with a puffed chest, "This Lich will die for good with me here."

Vance was confident in his power, as well as the power of his comrades. A Lich sealed for, who knows, maybe one thousand years wouldn't be enough to get him to shit his pants.

Was it stupidity coming from him, or was he powerful enough to fight the Lich? The only way to find out was to watch and see how the situation unfolded.

Damian did that. He followed them out of the library. The book they found said the Lich was sealed in a tomb behind the library. It was close to their location, so Vance and the others arrived without much problem.

They traversed a dark tunnel, only stopping after seeing a massive stone door blocking their path. The stone door had symbols resembling a bandaged skull and a scepter.

Vance tried to push the door and touch its parts, yet nothing happened. "So, how do we open this thing?"

The tall, muscular man scratched the back of his bald head and said, "I have no idea, Vance."

"I still have the book, so let's search for something," the person with the bandaged face said.

They browsed the thick leather book again, looking for clues on how to open the door. Something was there, written in red font, probably blood.

"It says here that it requires a human sacrifice... I think we may have to abort the mission," the person with the bandaged face said.

Vance felt the same way. He would return but with someone else to use as a sacrifice. He couldn't use one of his comrades in that, and he needed their strength to fight the Lich.

"Ah, if only we brought that guy with us," the bald man said.

It was at that moment that something unexpected happened. The person with the bandaged face took out a hidden knife from behind and cut the throat of the bald man!

The attack happened fast, and the bald man was unable to block. Too much blood spurted from the wound. It was severe, and he would die.

Vance's breathing turned irregular, and he unsheathed his swords, moving his body and entering a fighting stance.

"James. What's the meaning of this?" Vance said, staring at his 'friend.'

The one called James laughed, "James? James is long gone. I possessed him when he came here alone a few months ago. It's so easy to fool humans like you."

"The Lich? How did James come here alone? He didn't tell us!" Vance yelled and grasped his swords with everything he got.

Vance and the others were like brothers. Nothing would break their bond, and lies didn't stand between them. But James lied. He did something the others had no idea of, and that cost the bald's man life!

"It doesn't matter now. What matters is that I got the blood sacrifice, and I am finally free!" the Lich said.

Damian watched everything from a safe distance and finally understood why James looked like he had seen him through invisibility. It was because it did!

The person wasn't James anymore but the sealed Lich, who used him to trick his friends, bringing one of them on a plate to act as a sacrifice. Not liking what was happening before him, Damian was ready to turn around and leave when the Lich said, "You there. Stop."

Damian took off his cloak, revealing himself to them. There was no point in using it when his enemy could see him.

When Vance saw Damian there, he widened his eyes and said, "You? How? It doesn't matter! You must help us fight the Lich, or we will die."

"Why should I help those who betrayed me? You stupid fucker," Damian said, turning to face the Lich, who was regaining his power and changing to its authentic appearance.

Damian's cold eyes stared at the Lich, and without showcasing any emotion, he said, "Judging by your power, you can't win against me. What will we do? An agreement?"

The Lich saw that as a joke. A powerful Lich unable to fight against a human? That was unlikely to happen, even if he was rusty after a one-thousand-year seal.

But the Lich's opinion changed pretty fast when Damian let all of his mana out, and a red aura enveloped his body, sending a chill to everyone present, the Lich included.

"How do you have this kind of power?"

Being a Necromancer, the Lich knew very well the power of a Blood Mage, something evil like a Necromancer. It never expected a tremendous power like that one emanating from a human.

"What do you want in exchange for letting me leave?" the Necromancer said.

"Will you destroy the dome?"

"Of course. Who wants to live in this shitty desert?"

"Good. This might sound strange, but are you willing to befriend me? I want someone to teach me some Necromancy..."

"..."

Vance and his comrades didn't understand what had happened before their eyes. Was Damian befriending a Lich? That didn't sound like a good idea for anyone with a brain.

But Damian and the Lich? They knew each other pretty damn well. With both walking a different path, they respected each other.

"Alright. This sounds like fun. I can teach you everything I know about Necromancy, turning you into the next big thing in this field. But in exchange, can you teach me some Blood Magic? I always thought it looked cool, but no one taught me!"

While the two were talking, the Lich's authentic appearance came to play, and it wasn't that of an ugly skeleton but of a gorgeous woman with dark hair and purple eyes.

Damian did not know if it was only an illusion, but he didn't care. That Lich was freaking hot!
