In Rotermain Mortis went with Marina to the entrance of the castle of Baron Franz because she should feel safe since he noticed her uneasiness to be surrounded only by the common people. At the entrance they were stopped by soldiers, but one was quickly sent to tell the Baron that Marina had arrived from Tannenburg to see Franz.
A tall man with red hair and a long red beard came to the entrance dressed in a green and brown robe, Baron Franz was very surprised by the visit but also happy to welcome a distant relative. Marina explained that she made the dungeon birds tower and is currently with Baron Jochen to do her training and told him that she would like to see him again because he is such a calm and peaceful person.
The Baron was happy to accommodate her and his 2 sons are currently with other nobles to not be spoiled and to learn a lot from the others. Before Marina and the Baron could take care of Mortis, he had already disappeared and was on his way to the nearest cemetery.
A strange servant you have there or is that your fiancé? Franz asked. No, no and no, he is not a servant and he is not my fiancé, he is an adventurer who is working for Baron Jochen for a short time to help me and some soldiers in the dungeons. Explained Marina.
After 2 hours Mortis reached the first graveyard of three where there were already ghosts gathered with evil intentions but they just let Mortis take his way without attacking him because they realized that he is far superior to them.
Down in the crypt there was a zombie with an axe walking in a circle as Mortis was about to ask. ° This is a Rar you can attack without problems.°
Mortis took Sarah out because he didn't want to spend time with the zombie, then he also went into the spirit realm, stood next to the zombie and struck as the zombie turned to Mortis, Sarah pierced the zombie from behind. Mortis immediately used the seal of the soul explosion and just hit the Rar who tried to do damage with the axe but Mortis danced around the boss and just kept hitting as the seal exploded it was that for the monster.
Moris smashed the sculpture Prayer and quickly went upstairs to receive the souls, collecting 203 souls. The area bored Mortis also the Rar was killed in seconds now so he used sprinting and his stamina to get to the next graveyard as fast as possible if he makes it through the night he makes all 3 and should be back in Rotermain before sunrise.
It was getting dark and he reached the second graveyard even though he was a bit exhausted but he didn't let himself be stopped and made it a graveyard of his goddess and collected another 247 souls.
After 5 hours he was at the last graveyard and collected even now 430 souls because the whole country has been cleaned and all wandering souls made the way to the graveyard. Mortis felt a tremor and as the sky briefly seemed as if he would also tremble but it happened nothing. This surprised Mortis, but the system immediately gave a message. The loser probably wanted to see why he had lost another country and what was going on, but this weak individual had to admit defeat. XD.°
Mortis was mostly surprised how spiteful his system could be but he liked her character.
At sunrise Mortis went through the castle to find Marina, which he did after many rooms, so he stepped out of the spirit realm and knocked on her door, which opened after 1 minute totally sleepy. How did you get into the castle? I wasn't told anything last night. Said Marina. "I just got back from my trip, get up so we can go back, I have things to do, so I can't waste my time on the next Baron".
Baron Franz came to see who was making such a racket in the early morning when he saw Mortis at Marina's door. What are you doing here and how did you get in? No one is allowed in the castle without me knowing about it? "I just walked in and looked for that woman's room to take her with me, but she doesn't want to go yet, so I'll go alone, see you around," Mortis disappeared in a silver mist and ran outside, not to be touched by anyone.
The Baron was a bit shocked but he said. Well, I don't know about him, but I can't decide if he's insane or just shits. Who would dare to walk in and out of a castle that doesn't belong to him?
Mortis had arrived at a coachman's house to bargain with him to drive him to Grass Hill, but the coachman refused to make a 16 hour journey, so he agreed to drive him about 10 hours that way, and then walk the other kilometers. The coachman thought it was strange but agreed as long as he had his money he didn't care if his guest marched through the wilderness in the dark.
While the coachman drove off Mortis immediately fell asleep using the whole 10 hours the coachman drove and then he got up by himself when the coach came to a stop so he got out of the coach thanked him and went his way. On the way he took out a spirit to collect herbs for him in his vicinity if he is already walking around it should also be worthwhile.
After 8 hours of walking and occasionally running, he managed to arrive at night. When he went back to the spirit realm to go to his room without that in one sees. Helga was awake, so he stopped in front of the door and knocked, not wanting to scare her too much when he just appeared in the room. Slowly she opened the door to see who was there and made big eyes when she saw Mortis because he was supposed to come in 2 days.
She pulled him into the room and was very happy to see him again as she was not used to sleeping without him.
The next morning when the servant came in and Mortis was standing naked in front of her she almost got a heart attack from fright and instinctively ran out of the room screeching which made many other servants and guards rush to the room but they wondered what was going on when they saw Helga and Mortis only after a few moments they realized that he was not supposed to be here and no one knew that he had arrived.
Mortis was always happy to see those stupid surprised faces that don't know what's going on but before he could explain Baron Jochen arrived who was also very surprised to see Mortis in his room. When everything calmed down Mortis went with the Baron to the study.
In the study Mortis told the Baron what a great group they had and how the tank leads the group he found simply fascinating of course Mortis told it to show again how incompetent against Martin is on which he just ate a fool.
The Baron realized that Mortis didn't like being stuck here so he made a deal with Mortis that he would take care of Helga and help her improve and Mortis would move on but come back after 30 days so they could finish the bear tree together.
Mortis was thrilled with this idea, Helga was sure he could level up and get stronger and he could learn everything about the new area without putting Helga in danger there later so he gladly accepted the deal.
As soon as they finished talking, a crystal lit up on Jochen's table and Baron Fritz could be seen in the crystal. Mortis was sent out which was fine with him since he didn't want to know what they were talking about nor did he want to know about politics.
Mortis went back to Helga's room and explained the deal he had made with Baron Jochen which Helga didn't like at all but she knew it was no use complaining as it would only fall on deaf ears and Mortis would still do his thing.
So Helga closed the door and undressed then she said. Then we must let it crash today but properly if we both do not see us for so long.
Mortis grinned cheekily at her lasciviously grabbed her buttocks lifted her up kissed her passionately and carried her to bed.
At the same time, priests of Osmirnis were at one of the graveyards Mortis was cleaning to see what was going on, but they didn't even get to the graveyard. Even though they are priests they are actually necromancers and when they tried to send skeletons and ghosts to the cemetery the skeletons were turned into bone meal and the ghosts got their peace and the contracts disappeared from the necromancers. This shocked the priests and they mounted horses and rode as fast as they could to one of their great temples to report back.
