Academic gathering with Lich colleagues

The master and servant ran forward at the same time, but the distance did not shorten at all.

Mata brandished his sword and shouted from behind; only their voices could be heard in the dense forest.

"Young Master, are you crazy! Why are you running?!"

"You idiot Matt, I'm saving your life. I'd rather keep this ghost with me!"

"Young Master, stop fooling around! I'm really getting angry!"

"Then get angry! What can you do about it!"

"Aaaaaaah!" Matt, desperate to protect his master but rejected, was truly enraged. He brandished his sword in a fit of impotent fury. In his armor, he couldn't catch Kevin in his civilian clothes for long, and his master's life was in the hands of that leisurely ghost.

"Aaaaaah, Kevin, you brat! I'll haunt you even in death!"

"I understand! So I'm saving myself now! Matt! How dare you kill your master! I'm going to tell the old man when I get back!"

"If I catch you, Kevin, I'll personally tie you up and hand you over to the Baron, and even give him a riding crop!"

"Hiss, that vicious Matt! I'll remember this. You'll regret this!"

The master and servant chased and fled for some distance.

The young master is still the young master. Even with all the physical exertion from playing around, he can't compare to a trained knight. Wearing a full suit of armor and running so fast is like being an animal.

I really want it to end soon.

Panting, Kevin looked at the starless sky peeking through the leaves, his mind wandering between breaths.

"Young Master, don't run! Look ahead!" Matt's voice was full of pleading as he quickened his pace, squeezing out his last bit of strength.

In front of the two, a beautiful little girl in black stood there, her round face flushed with a lovely blush. She blinked her big eyes and, upon seeing Kevin, showed a look of surprise. She opened her little arms and ran towards Kevin.

"You came to see me? I'm so happy!"

What made Matt even more desperate was that his master seemed to be possessed, bursting into tears and rushing towards the little girl upon seeing her.

"My little darling, I've missed you so much!"

"Young master! This is a cemetery! Don't be fooled!!! There are no young girls among your blind dates!!!"

It's over. My young master has been completely possessed by evil spirits. He's surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind. I'm afraid he's going to die here today.

When faced with a desperate situation, some people are knocked down with a single punch, while others unleash their full potential.

"Aaaaaaah! Don't hurt my lord!!!"

Knight Matt, charge!

The advanced blade was like an unyielding flag, and the warrior bravely charged forward, instantly surpassing Kevin.

"Monster! Prepare to die!!!"

Matt's only focus was on that dangerous little girl.

Sure enough! That cute little girl was just a monster in disguise. Faced with its own blade, the monster revealed its true form.

From its petite body, countless tentacles burst forth and grew, like filthy dye staining the sky. These tiny, pulsating tentacles, like blood vessels, surprisingly gave the monster a touch of beauty.

A woman's form appeared in the tentacles, her outstretched arms displaying sharp, knife-like claws.

But the most terrifying thing was the enormous eye on her chest, a black and red eyeball that acted like a key, unlocking the door to fear in the hearts of all who looked upon it.

To be honest, Matt felt that he would have been terrified in the past, but he was different now.

My hand gripping the sword remained firm, and my young master was still behind me! Now, I know I can! I know I can!!!

A tentacle twisted into a fist, knocking down the troublesome Matt with a single punch. Nia laughed heartily, transforming into a large net and swooping down on Kevin.

"Kevin! Nia misses you so much! I miss Kevin's family's barbecue!!!"

Kevin looked at Matt lying on the ground with regret, feeling helpless. He had told him not to come near him.

However, I'm not much better off now.

Nia's outstretched body slammed into Kevin like a giant wave.

Kevin was instantly knocked to the ground, swallowed by the black mudslide, leaving a painful face etched on the surface of the mud!

"I'm suffocating! Nia! Nia!!!"

"You little brat, you still won't hold back! I felt like I was almost smashed to pieces!"

Chapter 448 The Gate of Bones

Kevin gasped for breath, shaking off the "gift" Nia had given him and pulling it out of his mouth. Although the black, sticky liquid didn't have a disgusting smell, young master Kevin didn't like the sticky feeling on his body.

"Is Lyle nearby, Nia?"

"Hmm." Nia's tentacles wrapped around the base of the grille tentacles, lifting her body up. Her fingernails gently poked at Matt, who was lying on the ground, causing sparks to fly from the scraping of bone fragments against his armor.

"Kevin, who is this? Is it a gift for Nia?"

Simple words, yet they caused such a huge shock. Ignoring the slime on his body, Kevin jumped up from the ground, ran to Nia, and grabbed her arm away from Matt. "No, Matt is my friend, or more accurately, my servant."

Nia tilted her head at a 30-degree angle, her big yellow eyes narrowed into a vertical line as if she were thinking, her tentacles rubbing her chin and making a gurgling sound.

So, we can't eat it?

"cannot!"

The tentacles wrapped around Nia's body like a disappointed child wrapping himself tightly in a blanket.

"Alright then."

Kevin comforted Nia with the promise of the next barbecue party and then shifted the topic to Lyle.

“Take me to see Lyle, Nia, I have something urgent to discuss with him.”

"Sure... is it okay?" Nia held her head, as if she was struggling with the decision. Then she looked at Kevin, her voice filled with uncertainty. "Kevin, you're with Lyle right now, and you have friends from that side. Are you going to go there now? It might... it might be very dangerous."

Lyle's friend on the other side? In danger? Does that mean there are other necromancers?

Although I am interested in mysterious powers, is it really appropriate to disturb Lyle?

What are Lyle and the others doing deep inside the cemetery?

Homework.

Kevin's worries disappeared.

"Come on! Nia! Take me there! What's there to worry about homework being a distraction! I want to go and observe and learn!"

“Alright then!” Nia, who was already tired of thinking, immediately prepared to accept Kevin’s suggestion.

But Kevin interrupted her.

"Wait, what about Matt? Should we take him with us?"

Nia squinted, staring at the unconscious knight.

"Buried?"

"No."

“…Then let’s just leave him here. The ghosts will protect him.” Perhaps fearing that Kevin would throw out some more questions, Nia drew a magic circle next to Matt without consulting him first, and then dragged Kevin into the depths of the cemetery.

"I never imagined that a tomb was hidden here."

Kevin looked at the Andrei Mausoleum, which was embedded in the shadows, and exclaimed in admiration. In the open space in front of the half-collapsed mausoleum, several figures dressed in black were fiddling with some eerie green light floating in the air.

Nia's reckless behavior attracted the attention of the group after she left the bushes.

The leading plague doctor turned his head, just about to greet her, when he noticed the decorations on Nia's tentacles.

"Kevin! What are you doing here!"

"Long time no see, Lyle!" Kevin, who was carefully placed on the ground, gave Lyle a hug. The noble young master's bright smile was still radiant even in the cemetery.

Seeing the Plague Doctor so intimately with a stranger, Bright, Manipulating, and Adaptable exchanged glances, "Plague Doctor, who is he...?"

"Kevin, my friend, my friend outside."

The three members of the Necromancer Figure Club huddled together in a small circle, whispering among themselves.

"Human, right?"

"Humanity, a living, breathing human being."

"The Plague Doctor's experimental subjects? Is 'friend' a deceptive term?"

"Who cares? Keeping humans as pets isn't illegal."

"It's illegal. The Andrei Smart Life Protection Act states that no one can be imprisoned or harmed as a human being. But it doesn't matter, if we don't say anything, no one will know."

"The key question is, what kind of stance should we adopt?"

“That’s easy. We’ll just do whatever the plague doctor does.”

Meanwhile, Lyle and Kevin were also whispering to each other.

“How did you get here, Kevin? They… my companions are dangerous to you. They… they’re all treacherous, ruthless lunatics.”

"Wow, that's really cool. I'll be careful when I deal with them."

You still want to deal with them! "You... even though you're 'lucky,' you still need to be careful. By the way, why aren't you worried about me? I've been dealing with these outlaws all along."

“Lyle, I just heard it. You’ve become their leader. Isn’t that enough to prove anything?”

"...You're right. Anyway, just be careful."

The secret meeting between the two groups has ended.

The five people gathered together.

"Hahaha, Anle, sir, we are the Plague Doctor's companions. You are the Plague Doctor's friend, so you are our friend. Welcome. I am Shining/Adaptable/Manipulator."

"Hahaha, hello everyone, I'm Kevin, nice to meet you all!"

Under Nia's confused gaze, Kevin and the three members of the Necromancer Figurine Club became friends on the surface.

"This is really cool. What are you guys studying here?" Kevin's eyes were fixed on the green glowing objects floating in the air. He leaned closer to take a look and found that they were bones, all kinds of bones.

"The Gate of Bones, we are studying a new spell. It is a teleportation spell of the Bone School of Spirit Conjuring."
