"Hmmm… should be because of the sword. Dismiss." Liam tiredly mumbled and the soul undeads disappeared, along with the newest recruit.
He then tossed the black dragon sword into his inventory space as well and let out a big sigh.
Working with incomplete knowledge was extremely dangerous. It had completely worn him out even if everything turned out for the best in the end.
There were several instances where it was touch and go for a moment. He might have really not made it. This was a hard lesson.
"The next time, I should only touch forging when I have done enough preparations." He made a mental note and dragged his body with Luna's help to land on top of her.
The white fox increased her size to become a big fluffy bed for Liam to rest comfortably. "Now then, shall we leave?"
Kyuuuuu!
Luna shook her head. [Master, this loot]
She reminded Liam about the piled up random drops that she and the group of soul undeads had collected painstakingly clearing all the beasts in the area.
"Ah, right. I almost forgot." Liam nodded.
Luna moved closer to the pile and started handing out the items one by one to Liam who tossed it into the inventory, not bothering to see any details.
The only thing he noticed was that once again there were no herbs in the pile.
"Ok, let's go to the next place," He did not feel disappointed. He had after all gained a lot more here than he expected.
And since there were no herbs in this zone as well, the only thing they could do was to keep looking.
The duo then rose up into the air as Luna waddled mid-air flying over to the next location. On top of her, Liam closed his eyes and rested for a while.
Now that he had somewhat recovered and replenished his energy sources he felt a lot better.
He also felt a lot lighter and free because the pest that had clung to his brain was no longer there.
He could only imagine how much his soul would grow stronger with the next stage. He couldn't help but anticipate that growth and power.
While Liam rested, the three-tailed white fox continued flying over to the next region, very smoothly and carefully so as to not disturb her master.
However, as soon as they neared the zone they were interested in, suddenly Luna came to an abrupt stop.
Kyuuuuu! She called out to Liam and he woke up, lazily opening only his one eye to take a look. But the next second he quickly sat up straight with a big grin.
When it rains, it pours! After all the mind numbing torture he had just experienced, the heavens had given him a chance to relieve some stress.
Liam's gaze wandered around the scene in front of him as he fixated on the giant death knight a few miles ahead of them. The big guy was slaughtering a bunch of earth golems.
However, what caught his eye was that his death knight was none other than the same one that he had faced back at the necromancer's cave, the one that had killed him.
And standing around the death knight were of course… the group of experts, Kouske, Madan, Anya, and Barret
Liam grinned, his lips curling up. "Hello, again."
