As the young Lord opened his eyes after being wounded to the point of unconsciousness for the second time. He held his head and saw a text box.
[Talent Gained: The Unspeakable Name.]
[This talent functions similarly to the Snow Necromancer, but that's only in subjects and subordinates. If you'd like to find out the other function, please ask. After all, you still have work to do dear Lord.]
'Can I know what both of my talents do?' Rise asked in his mind.
[Of course dear Lord. Snow Necromancer is a talent that allows the Lord to summon beings made from the ancient being of undeath of snow. The frost vampires are an example of this. It also allows the small chance of gaining the death's soul flame if the Lord or his subjects kill an enemy. It also gives the Lord more affinity to the dark arts, ice and snow type of magic, as well as necromancy. The Unspeakable Name allows the Lord to summon beings from the ancient being of silence and unspeakableness. You'll see an example in a little bit. Another function is the fact that people below your grade are unable to say, write, or even text your real name, Lord names are allowed however. If someone from a higher grade does, nothing will happen, well, till you get to their grade. Once you do, they'll die instantly. If someone says or does write your name, no one below your grade will be able to see it. The last function, for now, is the ability of 'ever silence,' no one can hear you unless you will it. Not even the Gods can either. They can still sense, hear, and touch you. But not hear. Good luck chosen Lord. May the Ancients be with you.]
Rise looked over the text boxes several times. Wow, suddenly a noise was heard as Polly entered the room. She gasped slightly seeing him. She then smiled and sighed in relief. "My Lord, I didn't hear you wake up."
"-------------------------------" Polly looked at him confused, did he say something? His mouth moved though. The Lord then remembered and coughed loudly. "Sorry, anyways, how long was I out again?"
"Its been around seven hours again." Polly told him. Rise nodded and tried to stand up, but an overwhelming pain forced him to stay down. He had a pained expression but didn't make a sound, to others. "My Lord!"
"I'm fine." Rise breathed heavily. That really hurt, if not for the Unspeakable Name. He would've blasted Polly's ears off. "Can you carry me?"
Polly nodded and got Rise onto her back, he made a pained expression again, but told Polly to keep going. She nodded and lifted him outside. They went over to the portal and summoned more frost vampires, non had a profession. As he piggy backed her, he saw many frost vampires rebuilding, they looked at him with happiness. A few even came up and greeted him. Rise nodded in response, the two eventually came to the graveyard. However, there were an extra ten graves and a sort of small stone hut which was only a one by one by three meter box.
[The Silent Stone Summoner. (Fiend.)
Potential: Unlimited
Tier: White-Sliver-Advanced Uncommon.
Summon the unspeakable Karhkly race, a race full of monstrous and evil beings who want to torture others. They hide in the shadows of their summoners, they may also hide in their enemy's shadow. With large tentacles to end those they hate.
Remark: A trashy reward from an ancient being of silence.]
Rise summoned the skeletons and new Karhkly. As he watched the stone open up, Polly and him felt a sudden and evil force enter his shadow. Polly was scared, but Rise calmed her down. He looked at his shadow, a single eye looked at him. It wasn't an eyeball, but like a drawing of an eye. It stared back at him, the two looked at each other before Rise smiled. Not one of happiness but one of sadistic pleasure. Such a being lives to torture others? What fun for those who've wronged him.
The eye disappeared back into his shadow as Rise felt a little sleepy. "Can you take me back to my hut?" Polly nodded.
The two arrived back, Polly laid Rise down. She told him she'd be back, so he was left alone. Not the first time. Rise thought a little bit, then decided to open up world chat since he was bored as all flip. Immediately the first message he got was. [BROTHER PERISHED! HELP ME!!!]
[What'd you need?]
[Brother Perished, my land was just attacked by someone called 'the Lord of the Glorious Conquest.' He just stole all my meat and resources!]
[I don't want your entire life story, just tell me what you need.]
[Some meat enough for fifteen people, even just for a day is good! Some equipment too please. I'll pay it back when I get my vengeance!]
Rise transferred enough meat for fifteen people for five days, wow he had a lot of meat on him. He also sent some of the excess equipment which was randomly piled up outside his hut. He had also already equipped the best armor and weapons for his skeletons before this. His karhkly also didn't need any armor either, they did consume soul flames though... that was fun. Soon he got some more messages from Scorching Volcano.
[Thank you so much! I have enough things to wage war on the damn Glorious Conquest! Thanks, I don't have much but I'll send some spoils of war later.]
[Okay. Just remember to pay me back.]
[Alright brother Perished! I need to go now.]
[Lord of the Scorched Volcano has logged off.]
Rise nodded and went to general world chat. [Did you hear that there's been the first Lord kill already?]
[What do you mean? Someone's already died.]
[Nah, I mean actual PVP. Look on the leaderboard.]
[Lord Kill Ranking:
1. FZ. (Full Lord name disabled. Would you like to enable?)
2. None.
3. None.]
Rise looked at the yes and no buttons, should he?... who knows. Rise decided to do that later, he might. But as he felt the pain lessen, he knew it was time to get up. After all, conquest waits for no one.
