With the Dreads busy eating, I ordered skeleton to kill them in one go. Using the newly acquired weapons, the skeleton didn't need much strength to decapitate them.
While I envied the privilege of those traitors, I also pitied them for their lack of skills in fighting. It is certain that the power they hold can overpower a normal human, if it was a mage, they are screwed.
Speaking of magic, the spell I used earlier used almost all my energy. Unlike mages who had mana cores, I use stamina as fuel and it's taxing me hard. The reason I can use magic even though I was a human is because I am not entirely human.
Zlantras, that's we were called by those mages. It is an insult to us, meaning 'diluted egg' in their language. Grans said that my mother was a mage, therefore I am a Zlantra.
One of the advantages of being a Zlantra was the capability of using magic while benefiting from the system. As I said before, mages can't see nor interact with the system.
But a half breed is considered a curse to mages. They despise us, treat us lower than animals, and don't welcome us into their realm.
Most of the time, I don't use magic in front of other people. The feeling of being attacked while chanting also turned me off and I prefer using skills more. Well, it's not like there's many books about magic in the human realm, most of the books available are just plain elemental spells and the occasional forbidden spells.
*Taps!*
I turned my head, and it's the skeleton holding the spear in its left, sword to the right. It looks like the job went well.
This skeleton is a bit strong though, taking on a human head is a bold move, especially being outclassed on weapons. Well, I guess experience mattered.
"Good job!" I rubbed my hand against its head.
"Wait a minute..." When I got a closer look, I noticed something unbelievable. Instead of the normal red tint in the skeleton's eyes, this one has some shade of blue mixed in.
"The Myth! The Myth is true!!!" I hugged it very tightly. For a long time, my hands didn't leave its bony head.
It is said that once in every thousand years, a skeleton that can evolve infinitely will emerge. An undead who doesn't fear death, embraces it, and goes beyond. Whoever Necromancer gets the skeleton will never lose a hundred battles and thousand wars.
Throughout my whole life, I believe that this premonition was only a myth. Among the countless stories of Necromancers I've heard, this one is the most unbelievable of them.
'So that's why this one can still dual wield huh' I smiled.
'With this, my future is limitless!'
"MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
"Why are you laughing like a maniac?" The sweet scent of mana mixes in the air, a familiar voice voice seeped behind me.
"Sachel? You're still here, I thought you came to look for your sister?"
"About that... I lied..." She acted cutely, her cheeks turned red.
A while ago, Sachel left before the Armageddon started, she said her sister came into the human realm with her and she wanted to know if her sister is okay.
"Actually... I fought the traitors"
"What!? Are you okay then? I told you they are strong!" Upon hearing she faced those traitors, I became mad. She doesn't know anything about system and the skills they possessed.
"Yeah, that's why I want to fight them!" She insisted.
*Facepalm!*
I was at a loss for words, why would anyone with a right mind think of that. It's the people with no cautiousness that will die early.
"What's that? Your skill?" She pointed at skeleton who's behind me all this time.
"Yeah, wait, how are you..." I couldn't even finish speaking before the sweet aroma of mana was replaced with a stinky smell.
"Boss! That's her!" A wounded traitor came onto view. Behind him are dozens of other traitors covered in hoods. A slender woman also followed behind, floating through the air.
"You provoked so many?" I looked at Sachel deeply, wondering how the hell she managed to collect so many enemies in such a short time.
"Hehe..." Was her only response.
"The time, you wretched woman! You scarred my perfect face, now it's your turn!" The floating woman lifted up her hood, revealing a burnt side next to her left eye.
Without any commands, the traitors below rushed at us, containing insane bloodlust.
"Need a hand?" I turned my head again to her. With a slight nod, I let skeleton attack.
Sachel get a hold of my hand, she teleported us on top of the mobs.
Taking out Phothone, I smashed the head of one of the traitors.
[Invisibility] [Power Boost]
Sachel casted me a spell. With such lucrative effect, I made my way behind them unknowingly.
I focused my Death Mark on one person at a time, along with the power boost, my damage was beyond what they could resist.
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boo....
Like a miniature explosion, Phothone blasted through the heads swiftly. Some of them tried to dodge, but all of them suffered the same fate. Well, how do you even dodge an invisible enemy? Instincts?
Skeleton died multiple times throughout the battle, but I always resurrected him immediately, a pseudo immortality.
Time passes by quickly...
All the goons were taken out, only the woman remained alive. I purposely didn't attack her, Sachel had a personal beef and I don't plan on interfering.
"Heh! You think you're big just because your boyfriend killed my pawns!? Watch me walk him as a slave when I'm done with you!"
Sachel however didn't respond nor moved for a while, I don't know what happened to her, it's almost like she became a statue.
A smile on her face was formed, she raised her wand and teleported behind the traitor. Yellow bolts of lightning came from the wand, striking the traitor point black.
Seeing Sachel had the upper hand, I took the skeleton for a walk and left.
***
When Yorui was out of sight, the battle continues heavily.
"Say that again bitch! Say it!" Sachel held the traitor's long hair while electrocuting her insides.
"Arghhhh!!!"
"Yor is not your slave, and will never be!" Tired of playing with the woman, she stabbed the woman's head with her wand.
"All bark, no bite" She spat on the woman's corpse.
