Chereads / Damned Necromancer: Lord of Madness / Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: The dark market

Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: The dark market

The dark continental market is well known for their crimes and slave trade. The dark continental market is protected by the merchant guild because they know how much they benefit from this.

Memphis zaichi was one of the executives who was secretly controlling the trade of the demon fruits, while the battle suits are crafted through the means of physical forces with the qi technology.

The demon fruits are crafted with magics while using the brains of demons as ingredients.

Although the human who devours the demon fruits remains a human, that doesn't change the fact they will no longer be considered as humans since they are giving up their humanity and giving into the demonic powers.

The death of memphis zaichi released all the restrictions and it became a global trade. The dark magic organization known as withsterak became prosperous from the trade of the demon fruits.

Only the traders were known to the people, but the main source of the demon fruits remained a mystery, and there were many who were buying the demon fruits in order to obtain powers that are beyond them.

The deathmaker made his way into the capital city of the amane empire while holding a stick of candy in his hand. He smiled brightly while covering himself with a green robe, trying to hide his identity.

"I doubt the dark magic organization exists here, but there are some of their official marketers here in this empire of amane. I will have the necessary information that I need," rey castle spoke out.

"Where should I start from?" rey castle asked.

He licked the stick of candy with smiles on his face. He made his way into a street filled with traders and buyers. Many businesses were ongoing since the amane empire is the main place to trade.

The sky darkened heavily as it's night already. Rey castle took a deep breath when he entered a dark corner. He could be seen walking alone in this dark corner while covering himself from being seen.

"They are here, I can feel them," rey castle said to himself!

He halted when he sensed something. Thousands of shurikens rained on him like it's nothing. Rey castle sighed when he evaded the shurikens with his quick moves. He moved with the wind with a smirk.

He evaded the shurikens when an arrow was fired against him. He easily caught the arrow with his hand when he sensed something. The arrow released blue gas into the air, causing rey castle to bounce back.

"I was expecting something, but never to this extent. Who are these people?" rey castle asked himself in shock when he widened his eyes in shock. He felt movements in the air when he dodged a sword strike!

A woman landed right behind him, grinning evilly as she held a katana blade in her hand, dressed in her sexy purple gown when rey castle sighed. He was stunned to see her standing right behind him.

"Who are you?" rey castle asked in shock.

"It's been a while since I last saw you, rey castle, or should I say, deathmaker...I don't know why you are here, but if you are investigating the dark magic organization, you better stop at once," the woman voiced out.

"You know me? I was curious as to why someone could be this skilled, but the fact that you know my real name means you are someone powerful. State your name," rey castle calmly asked.

"If you must know, the name is rosa castle," the woman spoke out.

"Rosa castle? I've heard of that name before. You are one of the sisters of lord benjin castle, huh?" rey castle asked with smiles on his face when the woman sighed. She slowly turned towards rey castle.

"You are correct. I'm the sixth sister of benjin castle and now I'm an exiled member of the house castle. You should know that I have every right to take your head, right?" the woman whose name is rosa castle asked.

"Well, yeah, but that's if you can. You were about to take off my head, weren't you? I was curious to know who you were, but I totally understand if you were once from the house castle," rey castle stated.

"Hmph, I came here only to warn you. Although if you were weak, killing you won't be a problem," rosa castle said when she sighed. She slowly sheathed her sword back into the scabbard while staring at rey castle.

"You mentioned the dark magic organization, didn't you? Are you part of them?" rey castle asked.

"I'm an assassin, not a mage, but I'm paid to defend them and protect their secrets. You are one who threatens their peace, so as one of their contractees, I'm obligated to take off your head," rosa castle stated.

"I see...then I will consider you a threat to my mission. You see something big aunt...I'm here to crush the dark magic organization," rey castle spoke out, creating intensity in the air as they both gazed at each other.

"You are provoking me, aren't you? Have your position as an s-class assassin gotten into your head? You may be a skilled assassin, but I am quite knowledgeable than you. You cannot match my skills," rosa said.

"Hmph, we will see about that," rey castle stated.

"And besides, can you tell your men to lower their killing intents? That isn't something that could terrify me," rey castle spoke out when four figures made their way out of the shadows with smiles on their faces.

"So this brat noticed us, huh? Despite my art of concealment, you are right, rosa...this brat really is skilled," the voice of a young girl spoke out with smiles on her face. She is seen holding a scepter.

"I'm quite grateful to see you are keeping out for me, big aunt, but I am sure you must know that it won't be easy to kill me here despite your crew," rey castle said it with a respectful tone when rosa castle grinned evilly.

"You think?" rosa castle calmly asked.

"There are three assassins and a single mage in her crew. I can tell the level of those assassins. They are not up to s-class level, but they are quite skilled. But that mage brat, she may be younger than me."

"Barely fourteen years old, but I can feel her mana. She has killed a lot of people for her to be in the team of someone like rosa castle, someone who was once famed as the demon of the north," rey castle said to himself.

"Yes, I think so. They may be skilled, but they still lack something that is strong enough to kill me," rey castle spoke out when rosa castle sighed. She took a deep breath when she slowly turned towards her crew.

"And what may that be?" rosa castle asked.

"The will to die fighting me. They do not possess such, so they can't possibly..." rey castle couldn't complete his statement when he widened his eyes in shock. A dark magic circle appeared right below him.

"What?" rey castle spoke out, and in the next second, an explosion occurred right from the dark magic circle. The young girl laughed out loud after watching the explosion that she caused with just a move.

Rey castle landed right on the ground when he sighed. He barely evaded the explosion that would have killed him. He slowly turned towards the mage. She directed her scepter towards his direction.

"You think we do not have the will to kill ya, huh? Since lady rosa doesn't stand against my decision to kill ya, I can do whatever I want...ha-ha-ha-ha-ha," the mage laughed out loud when she created several magic circles.

Releasing explosions upon explosions when she casted a spell!!

Concealing space with her mana to trap rey castle in her magic circles so she would instantly vaporize him with her next attack when rey castle supersped. He was quick to evade being trapped in the concealing space.

"The difference between huntsmen and mages is the height in auras. Mages possess highly concentrated auras that transforms into mana...through their control of mana, they can create magics."

"Huntsmen are bounded by codes and they are mainly focused on demon hunting, but mages are completely different. They are selfish and would focus their magics on what only benefits them."

"They are mostly despised and hated by normal humans, but I wonder what could make mages come together to create an organization such as withsterak. I can't kill that girl...lady rosa will surely prevent me."

"She may be young, but she is a smooth killer," rey castle spoke out when he brought out a dagger as he charged against her. The young girl giggled out loud when she fired a lightning beam against rey castle.

Tearing through space as rey felt the heat of the lightning spell, he was able to evade it when he appeared right above her. The young girl widened her eyes in shock as rey castle appeared right above her.

"Gotcha," rey castle spoke out when he brought down his dagger!

Aiming to stab her with the dagger when he received a kick sending him flying without hesitation. Rey castle landed on the ground when he sighed. He felt the intensity of the kicking when he frowned.

"As expected...you are the demon of the north, big aunt," rey castle spoke out.

"You knew I was going to protect her, and you did it anyway. Were you expecting me to protect her or what? You really are a weird kid," rosa castle spoke out, rey castle chuckled out loud in a surprising manner.

"You know I don't know why you are protecting the dark magic organization this much, but trust me, I will crush withsterak and if you will stand against me, then so be it!" rey castle spoke out, creating a terrifying aura in the air.

"You know i don't know why you are protecting the dark magic organization this much but trust me, i will crush withsterak and if you will stand against me....i will add you to the list "

Rosa castle declared when she charged against rey castle with supersped, directing her bone breaking punch against his face when rey castle grinned evily, he dropped a smoke bomb which instantly exploded.

Covering the air with smokes, lady rosa castle took a deep breath when she slowly looked around to see that rey castle is nowhere to be found, she took a deep breath when she smiled calmly.

" Oh? he escaped, that's so sad....i was able to turn him into my puppet, the infamous deathmaker, i wonder how strong he truly is " the mage said with a sad look on her face when rosa slowly approached her.

Lady rosa....how was my performance? the mage asked with smiles on her face.

"You did excellently well but i think we have made enemies with one of the house castle, rey...that bastard isn't stopping anytime soon, the code of the house castle" rosa castle stated.

"Isn't that great my lady? you can kill him next time he comes" one of the assassins spoke out with smiles on his face, the grey ghost....an a-class assassin who was once a member of the assassin guild.

But now he serves the dark magic organization!!

"I guess you are right, my brother benjin made a bad decision exiling me from the house castle the moment he became the lord of house castle, i will make him pay by killing the child he loves"

"The next time that child returns, i will kill him myself but for now, we have to report this to that man" rosa castle spoke out when she slowly turned to leave, they all followed her into the darkness of the night.

They are all expecting the return of the deathmaker!!
