A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 213: Strategy-2

"You Moon, you are nothing but an ex-guardian spirit who turned rogue maybe for some reason, but you accepted the path of darkness. And you, Minya, since that man already told you about the prophecy and a way to bring your sister back from the dead, you plotted all this. Didn't you? You feared her and her powers that's why you bound her, but that isn't the real reason is it?"

Ha!

You are too calculative.

"After you killed your sister, you used Moon's power to kill and bring men so you can use their life essence, so your sister's soul doesn't leave her body. The rumor, I gotta admit, you were mind-blowing."

"You asked your knight and locals to spread a nasty rumor about her, that the guardian spirit turned into a pervert and now seeking men. What a story, I totally cracked up."

"A guardian spirit having sexual intercourse with a man.  And to make it righteous so that people fear in real, you ordered your knights to find men who are dishonest and corrupt so that even if they are killed, nobody suspects you and they believe the rumor. Day by day, folks' trust deepened to the point that the fear turned into chaos. And you won, just like that. Not only people lost their trust in her but portraying yourself as their savior made you more trustworthy in their eyes."

"What a stupid plan" Desella scoffed.

"Come on Desella. We ought to give credit to him. Don't we?" Severus asked gently to which she again scoffed.

"Don't mind her. I am impressed. As for whatever bullshit story, you fed me, after meeting with Moon, I knew it was a lie. You both just overreact, it's easy to catch your lies, to be honest. After I was brought here, I knew I couldn't escape unscathed, nor I wanted to. I have a business here and I need to complete it. I just can't run away like that."

"So, the conclusion is, you" He pointed his finger towards Minya. "You wanted to sacrifice me to bring your sister back alive, use your power to manipulate the spirit, and also, wanted me to subdue it since you failed at subduing her. Basically, you just wanted to do nothing and reap the benefits of my hard work."

"Didn't you?"

"Too bad, Lord Severus saw straight through your filthy plan," Desella said.

Minya who was now completely exposed sat there as coldness seeped inside his body.  It was over, everything was over since Severus knew the truth.

Not paying any heed to him, Severus Shifted his gaze to the moon.

"Oh dear, I still remember the pure little moon, who used to follow me everywhere in the nighttime. I guess I can say you looked pretty but you were definitely not of my type. I don't like girls having babyfaces. Well, I won't repeat. In short, you too wanted me to subdue him because you knew, if one day he decides to fight you with his full power, you might lose. Lucky for you, Minya didn't had the guts. After he brought me here, you decided it was time for you to start with your plan, Docilely, you still followed his orders but cooked your own story so I can help you instead of him. He was smart and saw through your plans too. But in the end, you both fought with each other over nothing."

"It wasn't that both who were scheming against Lord Severus, but it was he, who played with both of you" Desella joined.

"You. Moon cursed"

'You, even if you knew, I burned the real parchment paper for and there were also sacrificial flames, how did you even manage to escape? Were you just acting all along?" She questioned him.

Even Minya wanted to know. As per their plan, he was asked to change the real parchment paper with fake ones, but since he wanted to kill him, he didn't replace them.

Severus smirked as he looked at Minya. "Want to know?". He nodded in response.

"It was all thanks to your stupidity. I knew it, you wouldn't replace the real parchment paper with fake ones, but this was not known to Moon. Since you both were arch enemies, you definitely didn't trust each other. Moon thought that the real ones were fakes that replaced the real ones with fake thinking it as original, which were in reality fake. As for flames, it was all just my magic"

"You see, your foolishness saved me" He smiled with satisfaction.

"You both betrayed me and I definitely ain't going easy on you" He warned them while unsheathing his silver sword with a black hilt. Since things were now in open, all they could do was to fight. Moon fought with Desella while he fought with Minya. As for knights, they now knew the complete truth but were forced to protect Minya with their lives. Their body wasn't in their control. Finally, Desella lost it.

"What the fuck. You All heard what he did to you? Didn't you, yet you are protecting them. Why?" She screamed at the top of her lungs. The situation was too odd and definitely not favorable to them.

Severus understood what was happening. 

"Miss, I am sorry, but I have no control over my body. It is moving on its own, if I try to resist, a sharp pain shootes in my heart, nearly numbing my body. It's too painful, even painful than death."

"Bull shit"

"You all are useless" She increased her pace after spitting her anger out.

"Noworry' Severus called him out. Like a good pet, he came and perched on his shoulder. They both shared some psychic conversation and after it was done, the bird flew up and increased its size. Technically it was his original size.  A black majestic bird shone like a starless night. He was very beautiful and Desella was charmed. She resisted her urge to pluck his feathers and continued her fight.

Someday I will surely pluck his feathers.

A shiver ran down through his body when he saw Desella's gaze.  He instantly knew what she was thinking.

Fck

He cursed but didn't pay any heed as he started his fight with Minya. Not being able to fight with him, Minya brought out his pet snake which was gifted to him by that man.

"You dare fight me. I hope you don't regret it in the future" Noworry mocked him.
