Omega Summoner

Adrian heard the declaration of the Undead King and could feel his valiant spirit. He did not know what to reply as he does not even have an idea how to make it happen. As Adrian was wondering what to do, his avatar was controlled by the AI.

“It is not easy to approve your request Undead King. I know that if the Arch Lich was near you then you would be controlled once again. You also have yet to sever your ties with him. Do that first then your request will certainly be approved. I know that the twin gods will most definitely welcome you all once more.” Adrian stated.

“You have a fair point, Champion Equinox. Although difficult, we would certainly do everything we can to be free from that despicable things tethers. Unfortunately, we cannot leave this place freely or else Malus would detect our presence. The only one who is not tethered to him is my son Creepysoo as he is a free undead. I am afraid that we have to burden you child.” The Undead King Caesar said.

“Do not worry, Father. I will free the rest of our king from his control.” Creepysoo boldly stated with confidence or rather determination.

“I assume you will child. Now then, I hope to use the Champion’s skills in a certain aspect.” The Undead King Caesar asked with respect.

“I hope that it is not far too difficult for me.” Adrian replied now free from the AI’s control.

“I am hoping to put you in charge of finding the pieces of my crown.” The Undead King Caesar said.

“Crown? Do you not have a crown right now?” Adrian pointed to the crown that the Undead King is currently wearing.

“Oh! This crown here is just for decoration. It barely has any usefulness as it is merely to make me look regal. The crown I am telling you about was the crown I was wearing when I became the Undead King. It was shattered by that despicable Malus because it helped impede his control over me. I ask the righteous champion to help me get it back.” The Undead King Caesar stated and a quest notification popped in Adrian’s sights.

Adrian almost forgot of the mission to find the Undead King because it would have been suicide. Adrian then remembered a title that Argent shouted before taking the Void Demolition skill.

“If you do not mind me asking, do you know who the Lich King is? Argent a former envoy shouted it as if this Lich King would save him. He also said another name but I kind of forgotten.” Adrian asked.

When the Undead King Caesar heard what Adrian said, he frowned. Adrian saw the Undead King’s reaction and thought that it might be bad news.

“If that guy is now unleashed then it would be more difficult for us. Yet, if he was already unleashed then the main world would have been overrun by undead by now.” The Undead King Caesar stated with a frown and even his attendants frowned as well.

“The Lich King is not me because I for one am not a Lich. The Lich King would be Malus’ former master that he revived. A Lich King would be the pinnacle of all liches and you would expect it to be something that an Arch Lich cannot control. But…” The Undead King Caesar told Adrian.

“But what?” Adrian said as he wanted to know the answer.

“What if a dying dark god fuses with an Envoy’s body only and discarding the envoy’s soul? So that an undead more fearsome than I was born. With the soul of a dark god and it twisting the powers of an Envoy then it could only be called a disaster.” The Undead King said in a grave tone as if remembering what had happened. 𝑙𝘪𝒷𝓇𝑒𝑎𝑑.𝘤𝑜𝑚

“I do not know if that wretched Malus planned for it to happen or it was a coincidence. Still, the fusion of the dark god with the envoy’s body was not perfect. It took a great deal of energy to sustain the fusion as the body would break down even if it was undead. The worst part is that to sustain the body, the Lich King would rip the souls of its victims and eat it as nourishment.” The Undead King Caesar said in an angry tone.

“I see. If what you said is true then the Lich King has not been properly revived yet. If my guess is correct, Malus would then look for the Lich King to revive him and then join forces with him.” Adrian stated as he thinks that would be the obvious plan.

“Even Malus would take tremendous effort to revive the Lich King. Reviving a mortal is much different than reviving a god after all. Even if it uses a mortal body as a host. I will try to appoint some shadow stalkers to find the Lich King’s sealed tomb so that we know if Malus is going towards it.” The Undead King Caesar said. The twins Noire and Blanche bowed and left to relay the Undead King’s command.

“Okay then. Please notify me if you manage to find it so that I could also tell the elders. Also, I know it is too much to ask but do perhaps know of some of the locations of your crown pieces?” Adrian asked as he does not want to search blindly.

“I thought you were not going to ask that. We manage to find out that three pieces are located inside the Church of Light. Two pieces at the Church of Life. Four pieces are currently unaccounted for. Luckily, we managed to find one piece. You could use this one to track the location of the other pieces as they react to one another.” The Undead King Caesar said as he beckoned the doom knight to give the fragment to Adrian.

The Doom Knight Cruz gave Adrian the fragment and he inspected it.

Quest Item: Crown Fragment of the Undead King

Tier: Transcendent

Description: A fragment of the cursed crown of the Undead King. It exudes an aura that pollutes a living beings soul.

Adrian stared at the fragment intently and he could feel both life and death energy from it but not in right way. When Adrian first felt death energy, he was at peace as if it was soothing his soul. The death energy at the fragment was violent and wants to consume life. Adrian was not that familiar with life energy so he could not compare it but he could feel that it was slightly off.

“I hope that this meeting has been a fruitful experience to you Champion Equinox. I hope that we will be allies in the battlefield that is to come. Du’an will help you leave this realm. I hope when you return, you will bring us good news.” The Undead King Caesar said with a smile.

“I hope so too.” Adrian replied with a smile.

Du’an floated near Adrian and spoke to him.

“I know that my spatial magic might be considered shabby compared to your race Champion Equinox but let me do the honors. Please tell me your intended destination and I will try to send you there.” Du’an stated in a respectful tone.

“Please send me to a location near the headquarters of the Church of Light. See you again, Creepysoo.” Adrian said as he used Glamour on himself and sealed his soulbounds to lessen Du’an’s burden.

“I adhere to the command.” Du’an said as a familiar sensation enveloped Adrian and he was whisked away and disappeared from the throne room.
