A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

Chapter 26: Ghost Lady

"If you are a fool then foolishness is your virtue."

----------------

Realization struck her head. "How can it be possible? I thought he was joking. My heart, heart. it's beating normally. No way, are you the chosen one?"

The old lady looked at Severus with an unfathomable gaze.

"Nice. Now I can die in peace. Take this book with you and leave this place otherwise you would be cursed", the old lady informed him.

Severus was confused. He didn't know why but he felt a bad omen coming and before he could say anything Noworry screamed [Run Severus. Run]

[We are in grave danger. If you don't run right now, you and I both will die here today. Run, leave this damn house. You didn't know but from the time we entered inside this house, I felt evil energy from here. This house and that lady both are cursed, Severus]

Noworry said everything in one go.

Blood drained from Severus' face.

"Holy Shit. What are you saying Noworry?"

"It can't be true" Severus denied it.

[Can't be true you're a**. Take a good look at her and then tell me, it can't be true] Noworry shouted.

True enough. When Severus turned back, he didn't see a calm composed old lady instead he saw a woman. She was beautiful but she looked dead. Her face was pale white whereas her hair was inky black. The old lady who was transformed into a ghost was now smirking.

"HELLO, MY BELOVED SEVERUS", she affectionately called him.

Severus got goosebumps from it.

"Forgive me noworry!!!!!!!!!!!"

Severus took a defensive position and joined his hands. He started chanting a spell. Blue runes swirled around him. Jane, who was now a ghost, smirked," Lad how old are you? Do you think you can win against me? Dream on!"

With this said she started approaching Severus but as soon as she tried to touch him the blue runes which swirled defended Severus and sent Jane flying a few meters away. A loud shriek came from her mouth and she groaned in pain

"Now noworry run" and with that Severus ran out of the house with his whole might.

He didn't look back not even for once and the loud shrieked never stopped. After they both ran to a safe distance, Severus took a turn and noticed that the whole house was now burning but to his surprise, the flames weren't yellow or orange, nor were they producing any heat, but they were blue. Dark blue flames engulfed the house and in between the flames, a thin figure was seen screaming. Jane was shouting and howling in pain. Amidst of all the flames, she noticed Severus' presence. Her eyes met him and before he could break the eye contact, Jane yelled a curse in a high pitch.

"I summon the darkest despair living in the darkness,

I pray to the Netherland to have justice for me,

I Jane curses the one who made me burn in despair,

I wish him eternal grief with cursed destiny,

may you live in a living hell Severus"

Jane cursed him and after reciting her curse, both the house and she disappeared like wind.

Never to be seen again.

Noworry blood turned cold after watching the whole incident with his eyes. A Never seen panic was seen in his eyes and for a few seconds, his mind went blank.

[S. Sav. rues. Severus. Why? Why did you do it?] noworry asked in a shaken voice.

Severus appeared confused but there were no traces of fear. In a low voice he asked," Hmmmmm. Did what?"

Noworry gulped and tried hard to form sentences. [You, you. Why did you turn around? Leave it. Even if you turned around why the heck did you make eye contact with an evil spirit? Are you so keen to die? Have no one ever told you, not to make eye contact with an evil spirit?] Noworry asked in frustration.

"No. No one told m ever to not to", Severus replied calmly.

Noworry [....]

Noworry was speechless. What can he even expect from Severus?
