The Necromancer Commands Slaves, Not Undeads - The Necromancer Commands Slaves, Not Undeads chapter 50

50 – Soiree (6)

***

Amelia von Russell-Wittenberg was looking out her window. After her trial was over and she returned to her villa, she went back to her own room, rested her chin and was lost in her thoughts.

As the princess of her empire, she always had concerns. She had many responsibilities in her position as princess. The history of an empire that lasted for a thousand years. Countless people.

Because she was a human being who could not become the princes who would succeed her, Princess Amelia felt even more responsible for her position.

An emperor is someone who leads everyone and continues history. It is natural that many people suffer if the head of the country is incompetent, and history has always proven this.

The empire was the emperor, and the emperor was the empire. She had to ascend to the throne in place of her incompetent brothers, and that was the path for Amelia von Russell-Wittenberg.

However, before she was a princess, she was just a human being.

Wine glasses used by the imperial family were made of glass made of special sand that distinguishes poison. The wine glass has an imperial symbol drawn on it so that no one can change it.

However, the vampire’s blood was a secret that the wine glasses used by the imperial family could not distinguish, and she became a monster who could not survive without sucking blood.

Her body trembled slightly as she looked out the window.

The body of a vampire has become stronger than when it was a human. It is also known as a species that can live for hundreds of years if it consumes blood regularly.

Her body will no longer age, and as a result, her jewel-like appearance will last forever.

However, will the people of the empire like it or will their father like it?

Humans impose strict standards on themselves and other species.

Even if you have a different skin color, race, values, or gender, your perspective quickly changes.

She was scared that people’s respect for her until now could change to hostile gaze.

That was why she was looking out her window now. Beneath the mask of a strong iron man, the heart of a weak woman is hidden.

‘I have come to offer help to the Golden Lion and Her Royal Highness.’

However, the trembling was short-lived as the boy who showed the princess an interesting side passed by in her mind.

In the princess’s memory, the boy was trembling. There were few people who did not tremble in front of the first princess of the empire. Especially if you came to make a suggestion.

Although he was afraid, he courageously told her that he knew the princess’s secret, and he offered her a proposal to achieve what he wanted.

I know that he went to prison and met the golden lion. If he had behaved suspiciously, I would have decapitated him with Oscar right away.

However, there was no need for the boy. He just did the right thing.

The princess did not dislike such a boy.

I liked the boy who acted upright and seemed freer than anyone else.

It was a precious thing for a young boy who still seemed to need his parents’ embrace to act like that.

“Of course, it’s fun.”

The princess liked the boy so much that if he was willing to remain in the capital after this, she would want to keep him by her side, along with Oscar and Maria.

The girl called Dorothy was also the same. Although she shows signs of dependence on the boy, she has the guts and courage to point a knife at the princess’s neck.

And above all, he was an outsider of heaven recognized by his guard knight, who was considered a strong man in the empire.

Those two people were clearly destined to become great figures.

“Now that I think about it, I don’t know your name.”

Next time we meet, I will ask your name. With that thought in mind, Princess Amelia was about to stand up from her seat.

Her body swayed and she was about to fall to the floor.

However, Oscar, the escort knight who was always on standby near her, sped up her steps in an instant and lifted the princess’s body into his arms before it touched her floor.

“Princess Amelia….”

Oscar looked at the princess with concern. He slowly lifted the princess’ body up and sat her on the bed.

“It’s okay, I just felt dizzy for a moment. I need to get some fresh air.”

“I’ll be ready.”

“No, I’ll go out alone today.”

“Are you okay?”

Princess Amelia smiled and nodded her head to her escort knight.

“I think I need some time alone today.”

The escort driver was embarrassed. Amelia had never asked a request like this before.

Princess Amelia has been through a lot recently. She also needs time to be alone without her escort.

Oscar nodded her head slowly.

Princess Amelia left her mansion alone. Oscar looked at her back. It’s a place where not a single animal, let alone a person, wanders around the mansion, so it should be okay.

However, Princess Amelia did not return to her villa for a long time after that.

***

Dorothy learned about auras through her battle with Oscar.

Just as wizards consume mana to use magic, users also had to consume mana to use auras.

Mana circulates everywhere, such as in objects, animals, and air. However, the only mana that an auror user can use is mana formed within his or her own body.

Mana flows through her bloodstream. More precisely, she flows through a ‘circuit’. There was a passage through which mana circulated in human blood vessels. That’s the circuit.

The Auror user realizes the existence of this ‘circuit’ and accelerates her circulation, consuming mana. The faster the circulation, the higher the user’s physical ability and the more precise all movements become.

Dorothy used this auror to control her actions as precisely as possible. He strictly controlled every sound he made, from the steps he took to walk to the sounds he breathed.

Dorothy was following carefully so as not to be caught by the green snake she was chasing.

Every step Dorothy took seemed like a moving shadow. All you can hear in this place is the sound the green snake is making.

If they saw Dorothy using her Auras in the right places even though no one taught her, not only people but also Auror users would be shocked.

The green snake left the ruins and entered the forest. Dorothy thought it was very suspicious. No matter how I looked in the dark forest, there seemed to be no space for people to rest.

It is night now. It is time for people to rest. Entering the forest at night was clearly not a place one would normally enter unless they had something to see.

The green snake stopped in front of a huge tree. Dorothy was following him using a tree as a stepping stone.

She also stopped her movements and was looking at the green snake on the branch. The green snake looked as if it was waiting for someone.

After about 10 minutes, when Dorothy’s concentration was momentarily distracted, the sound of an unknown person’s footsteps echoed through the forest.

The green snake’s vision moves. He was looking in the direction from which the sound came. But he was not on guard. He opened his mouth in a quiet voice, as if he had been waiting.

“Are you here?”

The one who revealed his identity was none other than a white-haired, red-eyed vampire. His ears were pointed like an elf’s and his eyes were ruby red. His skin looked pale, even whiter than Dorothy’s.

Unlike Princess Morse and Amelia, who were infected with vampires, he really looked like the vampire from the story.

“Okay. Didn’t anything happen?”

“Yes. We have captured the Golden Lion and his companions as planned. There is no change to the plan. Two days later, in the evening, I think we can kill them all along with the prince and frame them. What happened to the princess?”

“Preparations are complete here. I am calling you here as a test. Even though she is the princess of the empire, since she drank my blood, there is no way for the princess who has become a descendant to resist.”

What am I listening to right now? Dorothy was dazed.

Princess? Fraudulent? Prince? Kill me? It was full of words whose meaning I didn’t know. But one thing is certain… It was true that they were moving for a purpose other than to discredit the princess.

This fact must be reported to the owner as soon as possible.

However, ominously, the white-haired vampire stretched out his hand in Dorothy’s direction.

“Burn at the cost of blood.”

“!?”

A human-sized fireball was ejected in the direction of the tree where Dorothy was hiding. It was an instant. The fireball hits the tree and causes an explosion.

‘Magic!?’

Dorothy barely escaped the explosion. She escaped from the black cloud created by the explosion. Dorothy landed on her ground, drew her rapier and aimed it at her enemy.

“A rat was eavesdropping.”

“What, how!?”

The green snake looked at Dorothy with a puzzled expression, while the vampire glared at Dorothy with her calm eyes.

The moment Dorothy made eye contact with her vampire, she felt a chill run down her spine as she realized the identity of her vampire.

“Predator….”

The head of the clan and the pinnacle of vampires, the vampire in front of Dorothy was showing off a tremendous sense of intimidation, befitting the name of a predator.

However, the Predator in Dorothy’s eyes looked somewhat strange.

Dorothy, whose cognitive ability increased through her Aura, was able to check the Predator’s condition, including her pulse, hand movements, breathing, etc., Which were all disturbed.

‘Weakening… ?’

However, Dorothy was not arrogant. The best Dorothy can do now is to run away and tell her master.

Dorothy picked up her pace and began to run away from the forest.

“Catch it!”

With the Predator’s sharp voice, Dorothy’s chase began.
