Chapter 553 552: Bone Fortress (1)



I crept through the underbrush and quietly observed the patterns of the undead that were \'on guard\' for the Bone Fortress, their hollow eye sockets still capable of some form of sight as they turned their skulls this way and that, trying to locate any intruders that might cause harm to them or their superiors.

Sticking to the forest and hiding behind the trees, I slowly made my way towards the back of the towering walls of the Bone Fortress and prepared myself to climb up to begin my portion of the siege, which was to layer this place in a Domain and aid the two warriors from above by casting spells to pick off whatever I needed to.

My boots glided over the leaves and twigs on the ground, the thin layer of Wind Mana on the soles preventing them from making noise as I snuck around the back of the clearing, while the thin Wind Cloak I wore diffused my scent and kept some of the noxious gases from the decaying forest away from my sensitive nostrils.

Shatter rested comfortably in my right hand, the long dagger already covered in serrated ice as I prepared to use it to kill the things in my way as I got ready to scale the way.

Thanks to the Bone Fortress\' location, the back of it was facing the ocean, with a thin stretch of forest separating it from the beach, meaning most of the skeletons around were focused on the front and towards the Monster Den, preparing for the incursion from the monsters should they overwhelm the battlefield or decided to take the fight to the undead.

That meant that there were just a few undead milling around at the back, with only one of them being close enough to me to warrant killing; the other few were on the opposite sides and staring out into the poisoned forest.

A small smile tugged at my lips as I reached the trees near where the skeleton was standing, my breathing shortening out as I quieted myself down as much as I could before I lunged forwards, slicing shatter through the skeleton\'s neck and taking ahold of the skull before it could fall to the ground.

I clenched my fist over the bone and crushed it, before allowing the skeleton\'s body to rest against mine as it slowly faded away.

Looking side to side, I checked on the others before nodding as I began to scurry up the walls, Shatter clenched between my teeth as I scaled the wall swiftly, reaching the lip of the palisade and looking over the Fortress\' walls as I searched for those mage skeletons.

There were a few patrolling the walls, but not enough to warrant trying to sneakily kill all of them, even if that would make things easier on my part; we had a timeframe to stick to, after all.

So I pulled myself over the wall, and crept towards the mage that was near me, killing it the same way that I did the skeleton below before slinking over towards the hall, where I scaled the roof and began to weave my spell into existence.

The ethereal blue runes were quick to draw attention as more and more mana gathered in my location, causing quite a few of the undead to turn and chitter in confusion as they looked towards the roof, but before they could do anything, the gate was slammed open as a Demoness and Djinn burst into the Fortress, their blades at the ready.

With two separate threats now visible, the undead hesitated for a few moments before splitting their forces between the two of us, but those precious seconds were enough to gather the mana I needed to cast my Domain over this Bone Fortress, condensing the clouds above as I summoned snow and wind to besiege this place as well.

The temperature plummeted just like before, and frost began to creep its way into the undead\'s bones as the gases and humidity in the air were crystalized by this mana induced flash freeze, instantly affecting the undead and allowing Jahi and Nirinia to swoop in and begin their massacre.

With my Ritual Circle protected behind me, I began to weave other spells into existence as I took out the mages with swift arrows, before targeting the constructs limbs and felling them before they could become a threat.

The two warriors below made short work of the various slowed undead, their blades shattering bone with frightening ease as they worked their way towards the gates leading into the hall, where our true prey resided.

I took care of the rest of the chaff with a barrage of icicles over the Bone Fortress, killing everything that remained and spreading more and more ice as I encased this place in my element, making me grin as the chill rejuvenated me.

Slipping off the roof, I found that window leading into the hall again and peaked inside, where I found the tall four armed undead resting against the wall, just like last time, and hugging that sarcophagus close to its side as it stared at the door, waiting for the attackers to make their way inside.

Jahi and Nirinia slammed those gates open as well, allowing the wind and snow to begin to sneak inside the hall as they stared the undead down, waiting for it to make its move.

Lifting the twin swords from the wall, it stood up and stepped forwards, its silvery orbs flaring as it stared past the two warriors and glimpsed the destruction outside.

The Demoness and Djinn stood firm as the undead took another step forwards, returning its gaze to the two responsible and tapping the tips of its blades against the stone.

With the sarcophagus resting over its shoulder and its remaining hand left free, we prepared for the battle to come as the canine skulled undead lifted its blades and pointed them at the two warriors in challenge.
