Hidden at the deepest depths of the Northern Continent where it was coldest and darkest, an undead kingdom hibernated far away from human habitation.
At this time of the year, winter was already close.
This was not the reason why most of the skeletons in this ancient Undead Kingdom were more active than usual though. At this moment, the skeletons of this undead kingdom were more active due to something else.
The skeleton warriors, skeleton archers, skeleton knights, and even the skeleton Giants at this moment had their yellow eyes flickering ominously as they all stared at the throne chamber where greater activity was being detected.
From their ominous yellow eyes, a bit of excitement could be detected.
At this moment, after sitting on the throne for months, Pseudo-Black Master Daemon did not only completely recover, but he rapidly improved.
Banking all his meditation on the inspiration that he got from his clash against the monster Pugilist, lots of bottlenecks started breaking before him. Though it started slowly, with time, more bottlenecks were broken.
In player terms, this Pseudo-Black Master was already a superhuman who got to the very peak of the Grade D realm. He was long overdue to breakthrough.
The only thing holding him back was the stringent advancement mission that he unfortunately encountered. Now, with Blade, he completed the advancement mission which became the epiphany that he needed to breakthrough.
BOOM!
Every few weeks, a powerful energy erupted with the Necromancer as the center as the whole undead Kingdom felt the powerful energy fluctuations.
At this moment, the spooky green flames that burned in his skull head also intensified as the weeks passed, becoming akin to a green torch in the darkness.
The torch illuminated the darkness that dominated this cold world.
Today, another powerful energy fluctuation erupted.
BOOM!
After the energy eruption, the green flames on Daemon's skull burned brighter than ever before, becoming akin to the sun. It's only difference from the sun was that instead of emitting heat, it emitted cold energy.
The yellow flames for eyes burning in the sockets of the numerous skeletons watched excitedly as they could already tell that a new King was about to be born.
After centuries, a new Necromancy King was about to be born.
Throughout all these changes, Daemon previously had his eyes closed, it was after this energy eruption that he finally opened them.
His eye sockets burned fervently with a fiery mix of yellow and green flames.
The only problem was that the energy coming from inside his body at this moment was too powerful, it was like he was about to explode into a thousand pieces. His eyes slowly became hollow even as the flames burned fiercer.
Crack!
His skull started revealing cracks but this was when he finally muttered.
His mouth finally opened as he muttered incantations.
"From death was I made".
"I forfeited my mortal self and embraced the body of the god of death…"
"Grant me the ability to summon spirits to proliferate the faith of death…"
"Grant me the ability to become one with death…"
"Grant me the ability to become death itself…"
Daemon himself was not sure who he was muttering these specific words to, but as instructed in the pamphlet that was left for him by his benefactor, if he was ever able to get an epiphany, at the last moments, he should say these words.
As soon as Daemon said these words, there was a reaction.
BOOM!
For the first time in centuries, the eternal darkness that covered the undead kingdom was broken by a higher power. A pitch-black lightning engulfed with highly concentrated undead energy tore its way into Planet Darvis.
It tore its way straight to the North and tore the veil of darkness apart.
With the veil torn apart, the black lightning struck him and engulfed him completely. Daemon jerked as pain and power filled his body, the 2 different sensations completely overwhelmed his senses as he screamed maniacally.
"Ahhhh…!!!"
His screams turned to roars filled with power.
Even the clouds in the heavens seemed to resonate with his roars.
This continued for minutes before another change finally took place.
Crack!
Daemon's body was not repaired, rather, more cracks spread through it. Daemon was not scared this time though, he did not suppress it as he let the cracks spread. The next moment, his body exploded.
Fragments of his tempered skin flew out like shrapnels from exploded metal but Daemon did not die, rather, a new body came from underneath the old one.
Daemon was reborn!
He was reborn as a Grade C Necromancer!
He was reborn as the new Necromancy King!
Sizzle! Crack!
Even the airspace itself could not withstand his power. Unable to fluently control his newly discovered power, Daemon's power spread like wildfire as different sounds reverberated in the air like thunder and exploding dominoes.
This incredible undead energy spread through this massive undead kingdom, waking it up from its centuries-long hibernation and activating all its powers.
Apart from the weak skeleton warriors, skeleton archers, and the skeleton Giants, the stronger skeletons that previously hibernated finally woke up.
The strongest of them all was the mighty Bone Dragon.
As soon as the yellow eyes of this Bone Dragon snapped open, it flapped its wings as a mighty frost energy erupted with it as the center. This mighty Grade C Bone Dragon looked fixatedly at his new King then he roared loudly.
"ROAR…!!!"
The roar reverberated through the North, announcing the birth of a King.
The commotion did not end just in the North, at the different continents of Planet Darvis, like experienced every time, signs appeared in the skies.
All the knowledgeable ones were stunned. "A new Grade C superhuman has been born!"
While the commotion went on across the whole planet…
Bzzz!
The air briefly shifted then Clown appeared again in the Undead Kingdom.
Whoosh!
"Stop…!"
The Bone Dragon barely flapped its wings before Daemon, its new King ordered it to stop. Clown looked up at the Bone Dragon who already closed the distance to him before it was ordered to stop.
He smiled. "Old friend…, you did it".
"Hahaha…" Daemon suddenly seemed to gain Clown's eccentricities, he laughed like a maniac as he let his powerful Grade C energy run amuck.
"I… feel… Powerful!"
After letting his old friend to bask in his newly-gained powers, Clown stared straight at him. "Are you ready to fulfill the dream with us?"
Daemon calmed down. "Of course!"
Clown grinned. "Only the Ancient Trolls are remaining".
"A world of chaos beckons". He laughed maniacally.
