Chereads / Necromancer Emperor / Chapter 5 - Chapter 4 : Deep Stratum

Chapter 5 - Chapter 4 : Deep Stratum

Jack the Clown, is a medium-level Undead. He had the appearance of a person with a thin body, his face was as if it had been made up in such a way that it closely resembled that of a clown. Sometimes one can't even tell whether the face of Jack the Clown is make-up or a mask.

He has a fairly tall body and quite long arms. His clothes were very much like a suit, and he wore loafers. Don't forget, he also wears gloves and has blue hair. His teeth were also very numerous and sharp as if they were like the teeth of a beast.

Despite having a thin body, Jack the Clown is one of the undead with the strongest physical strength at the intermediate level. It also causes Jack the Clown's fighting style to tend to attack from the front. Jack the Clown is also very suitable if you have to face a massive number of enemies.

This is because Jack the Clown has a habit of fighting brutally when facing a large number of enemies. If we look more closely, we will see that every finger belonging to Jack the Clown is broken. The shape is quite terrible because every finger seems to be turned and not straight.

Not only strong in attack, Jack the Clown has very high agility. He can even predict the direction of the enemy's attack so it will be easy to dodge. His body is also very flexible like rubber. Jack the Clown also has a distinctive yet terrifying laugh.

When in battle mode, he will often emit his terrible laugh. His voice was like that of someone laughing with great satisfaction in slaughtering so many people. Anyone who heard Jack the Clown's laughing voice knew that his death was imminent. In other words, Jack the Clown only laughed when it entered combat mode.

He also will not let his enemy escape. Jack the Clown will continue to chase his enemy while laughing and opening his mouth slightly to reveal his sharp teeth. If in the forest, Jack the Clown will chase his enemies by hanging and moving from one tree to another. But if there are no trees, then Jack the Clown will rely on both his feet and hands so he can move faster.

Jack the Clown is arguably the embodiment of a monstrous clown and he is one of Azel's favorite middle-class undead.

Due to his struggles in Hell, Azel also obtained a class and several special classes so that he was able to summon many types of undead. Even if Azel wanted to, he could just produce a lot of undead every day to form a large army. Of course, that method would be extremely terrifying to the many people in the Mortal World.

As for the Night Lich, it has a skeleton-like shape, but it still has flesh so it will be very different from the usual skeletons. The flesh and bones are black, so the difference will be very noticeable when compared to other types of the lich.

In contrast to other types of lich who wear a cloak and hood, the Night Lich instead wears full armor and moves in a levitating manner. Its armor covered its head to its feet so it was as if it were like a lich covered in full armor.

Night Lich can be said to have a height equivalent to Jack the Clown, which is about 185 cm. However, due to hovering, the Night Lich will appear a bit taller than Jack the Clown.

The Night Lich's armor has a black color mixed with a dark purple color with some gold hues on the edges of the armor. While the helmet of the Night Lich has a hole in the form of a vertical line that is combined with a horizontal one. However, the Night Lich had a deep purple aura that lit up so that the hole in his helmet was filled with purple.

The armor seemed to be holding back the purple aura that wanted to escape from the Night Lich's body. It could be said that this aura would give someone goosebumps because of its terrifying power. He can also be said to be a multifunctional undead because he can use two types of attacks, namely physical and magic. In other words, the Night Lich was capable of attacking from a distance or at close range.

In his right hand, he held a long sword with the tip of the blade as if it had been cut slightly in two. As for the left hand, he holds a magic wand with a floating black ball. The wand is a special magic wand named Baculum'Nigrum Migap.

Generally, the Night Lich is more effective when fighting at a distance. But if the enemy insists on fighting at close range, the Night Lich will use his sword to fight the enemy. This makes the Night Lich as Azel's favorite undead apart from Jack the Clown and several high-end undead.

In short, for normal humans or even heroes, the Night Lich and Jack the Clown were quite difficult undead to deal with.

That's a brief overview of the two undead summoned by Azel.

"DON'T JUST LOOK, GET OUT!!" Azel shouted to provoke the danger that lurked him out.

Azel was quite annoyed that there was no answer. Azel also currently does not know the form or strength of the enemy he will face later. But two middle-class undead seemed like it would be enough to buy time until Azel finished wearing his full armor. In other words, Azel only summoned his two undead just to buy time for a while.

There was no sign of the appearance of a creature that according to the system would be a danger to Azel. But Azel still decided to be vigilant and wouldn't underestimate anything. Plus, Azel currently has very little strength, and close combat is a solution so that Azel can keep up with his enemy if the enemy is strong enough.

Jack the Clown and the Night Lich now started to walk a few steps forward while looking around them. They also cannot detect what kind of enemy they will face later. It could be said that at this time the atmosphere was quite quiet, only the footsteps of Jack the Clown could be heard, then the sound of the Night Lich's aura which was similar to the sound of flames, and of course the voice of Azel who had previously spoken.

Azel was currently sending a signal towards the Night Lich and Jack the Clown via telepathy. Azel reminded the two of them to be on high alert against the impending threat. Of course, they obeyed Azel's words, it was because Azel was their Master.

"System, start installing my armor," Azel ordered the system to install his armor.

"Okay, Master! I'll start fitting Master's armor," the System agreed to Azel's order.

Azel's combat armor could be said to be currently in Azel's spatial storage room. If Azel installed the armor himself, it would take a long time. Azel currently has several combat armors, and each of them is already connected to a weapon. To shorten the time, Azel asked the system for help to install his armor.

A virtual screen appears again in front of Azel, the screen provides information and details about the progress of installing Azel's armor.

[Armor installation process: 1%]

Not long after, several fireballs shot at high speed toward Azel. The fireball had a total of three, and the fireball targeted Azel from all three sides. Azel of course can't move because he is currently in the process of installing battle armor. If only Azel moved, then it would greatly interfere with the process of installing combat armor.

Realizing that an attack was coming toward its Master, the Night Lich immediately raised his wand slightly. Three large blue magic circles suddenly appeared. Not long after, a fairly large wall of water was formed. It could be said that the process of casting the magic that the Night Lich carried out was short and fast.

The wall of water forms the letter n and at the same time protects Jack the Clown and Azel who are installing his battle armor. The water wall has a height of about four meters and a thickness of about two meters.

The collision between the three fireballs and the fairly large wall of water was unavoidable. The collision caused the area around the cave to immediately smoke because the collision between the fireball and the wall of water produced very dense smoke. Of course, Azel, Jack the Clown, and the Night Lich weren't bothered by the smoke.

Azel only smiled faintly as the Night Lich managed to withstand the attacks of the three fireballs. Jack the Clown suddenly laughed, he immediately climbed up the cave wall at high speed to get to the cave ceiling. The atmosphere of the cave is still dark right now, and Azel and his undead don't yet know the form and strength of the enemy.
