A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 173: prison

"There are still so many things that I am supposed to know but I don't know shit about them. The heavens have blessed me with another life and in this one, I can choose how I want to live. Now when I am finished with my revenge, I can live the rest of my life in peace and luxury. Enjoying every pleasure that this world has to offer, or I can spend the rest of my life hustling. Like I was, my true self. The fact that II know something big is waiting for me gives me chills. It would be a lie if I say this battle was easy and what awaits me, would be bigger battles and strong enemies. I am torn between a situation. What should I do? Should I just not care about anyone and live my life happily? But the fact that there is something that only I can do, shakes my heart. What could it be? Who could it be? Even if I don't care about anyone else, I still want to be true to myself and my heart doesn't allow me to live a peaceful life. "

"Stagnant life sucks so I don't want to live such a life. Moreover, neither I have a right nor the will to rule this kingdom" Severus said with a solemn expression. If he really accepted the throne then whatever he said to Maverick, would turn into a lie. He himself wouldn't be Severs if he accepted it so it was better to not take what doesn't belong to you.

After he finished his conversation with Noworry, Severus crouched near Maverick grave, and using the hilt of his sheathed sword, he initiated contact between them. He closed his eyes and softly started chanting. As he did, Noworry saw the extinguished joss sticks lightning again, even in heavy downpour they didn't get wet. It continued burning for a few seconds and then extinguished in an instant. Severus did the same procedure with the other two graves and the same phenomena happened with them.

Noworry was baffled and wanted to ask several questions, but he waited until Severus was done with his respects. Finally, Severus opened his eyes.

[What was that?]

"What was what?" Severus was baffled too with noworry ridiculous questions.

[.]

[What happened to Joss sticks?]

HUH?

"Joss sticks? What happened to them?" As his eyes were closed, he didn't see what happened, so he was clueless. Noworry finally found out that Severus might be unaware, so he explained everything to him.

Severus gasped light when he heard what happened.

"In all honesty, I don't know what happened however I find out that my sword has the power to free souls from any bond and send them directly on their way to the upper realm. I wanted them all to be free from any attachments they all had so they can freely go up there. It's enough for them too. I think forgetting would be the best-case scenario since we can't forgive each other"

Noworry understood what Severus meant.

Maybe sometimes, forgetting was better than forgiving.

[I see.]

[Eh!]

[Wait]

[You didn't set up a grave for your grandfather?] Noworry was perplexed. He remembers Severus putting Maverick and Gren together inside the ball. It would be strange if he didn't prepare a grave for him.

HA!

Severus chuckled evilly. "Of course, I did."

"The third grave, read what it is written."

[Gren.]

[If this grave belongs to your deceased grandfather then where is Marquis grave?] This was getting interesting now.

[Don't tell me you played something funny?]

"Well, I am no saint you see. Marquis was the one who fabricated everything and how could you even think I can forgive him so easily. You know what? I just discovered how to create a prison and undo it. I finally understood the mechanism and with this, my book of special spells is completed. It was the last spell in that book and really took me a while to understand this mechanism. It was such a bloody and heinous way but all thanks to Marquis, I don't need to do anything, just cast the spell so he can suffer a hellish afterlife."

Noworry felt everything bouncing away from his brain.

[Huh? You know you are not making any sense so be clear]

""

"It's simple. I cracked the mechanism behind the taboo art of prison. To create it, one needs a high level of innocent people's blood and a great amount of malice. Marquis already had that container filled with innocent women's blood and my sword has an abundant amount of malice stored in it. So the other day when I was acting up, I actually sneaked inside the morgue room and already cast my spell. Now Marquis is inside a prison made by me. I didn't make it strong knowing how cruel it is, but he deserved it. In that prison, he would be haunted by the memories of all the innocent women and live a hellish life there. However, the gates of prison will be opened for him when his soul will accept his mistakes. Knowing his nature, I know it would be very difficult for him to surrender against a woman. His fate is now in his hands. If he gets enlightened, he will be free to leave the prison and go for his afterlife, or else his soul will cease to exist. I already placed my own time seal there. If Marquis failed, then after 10,0000 years. The gate will be opened from outside so he can be punished by heaven's law."

"It was the least I could do," Severus explained himself.

Noworry felt chills. Severus said so easily that he created a prison and captured a soul, but Noworry knew how cruel prions were. Any sane man would go berserk inside there, completely forgetting about its existence. With no recollection of memory, it's as good as dead. This punishment of soul torturing was on another level.

[I see]

"You hate me?" Severus asked out of the blue.

[.]

The hell you are talking about. Why would I hate you?] Noworry didn't' know where the conversation was heading today.

"I just felt like asking" Severus didn't explain anything and went back with Noworry still perched on his shoulders.

'So finally, it all comes to an end.'

Severus whispered to himself.

-----

Severus was thoroughly drenched. As soon as he came back, he took a hot shower and had his meal.

Knock!

He was on his way to finishing with his food when someone knocked.

"Enter."

Desella came running inside and instantly put her hand on his forehead to see if he caught fever or not. She relaxed when she saw that his temperature was okay. "Just mildly warm." She whispered. 

"You make me worry" She complained.

"Aaah! I don't have anyone else other than you to rely on dear."

[here he goes again.]

Noworry knew Severus was all right so to save himself from his flirting, Noworry fled from the scene.

Desella blushed when she was called dear, but it faded soon since she remembered why she came here. "Stop fooling around and tell me what we are supposed to do next," She asked seriously.

Severus gulped when he saw how serious she saw. She had enough of his goofing nature now.

She held her head with her right hand as she sighed. "Why can't you be serious? The kingdom is in chaos, the other kingdoms might try to wage a war with us now since we do not have a head. The nobles are plotting, and we should not take them for granted. They have decent influence on natives" She rambled on for a long time.

In the end, she slammed her fist on the table as she finally glared at him. "We have an emergency meeting in the next 15 minutes and everyone expects you there so, to be on time" She got up and slammed the door again.

Geez!

She is so angry.

Severus complained but then shifted his mind to food.

--

Inside a small chamber.

A round table was decorated with a red tablecloth, surrounded by five chairs. All the four chairs were occupied except one and one could guess who it belonged to.

"I told him not to be late" Desella grumbled angrily.

"Brother Severus might be feeling under the weather. We should wait for him a little more" Selena sweetly said.

Desella face twitched when she heard how intimately Selin called Severus' name.

Gui Song and Vlass were the other two occupying the table. They just maintained silence.

Katchak!

The door opened and Severus sauntered inside the room lazily. Severus had changed into a red outfit today with his stylish black cape. A customized golden necklace was made for Noworry too. He was stylishly perched on Severus' shoulder, complimenting Severus handsomeness.

"Esha! Desella you should have told me the place where you were going to hold the meeting. It took me a while to find the location" Severus blamed Desella. However, everyone understood that Severus was just saving his neck from Desella's anger.
