Rise of the Undead Legion Chapter 534 - Settling Old Debts

Chapter 534 - Settling Old Debts

Once the armor was done, Dave tore a teleportation scroll along with Ralph, the two of them teleported to Urburg. They headed straight to Nick's pub. The Undeath G.o.d waited patiently for the two as he was doing his usual cleaning of the gla.s.sware in the small tavern of his.

"Good to see you back."

"Thanks, so what's the deal with Ashkar?" Dave asked.

"I got the news that he is doing something in the rims of the Wilds, near a swamp a few leagues away north of Moria."

"North of Moria… that's the Spider Queen location, I doubt she'll be happy seeing us again."

"I remember the Man-Eating Spider Queen in one of your early skelly adventures. We'll head there again?" Ralph asked.

"I guess."

"Well, the spider is definitely not your biggest concern, especially with Ashkar's appearance."

"Yeah, well let's investigate and see what we're up against and what he is plotting."

"Kid," Nick said, rather solemnly.

"Yeah?"

"Don't fight him. With your current strength, I doubt you're a match to Ashkar."

"Even with the legacy, and the Abyssal Knight promotion? Aren't you giving him too much credit?"

Nick sighed and said, "You're growing stronger, but you should know, there are always higher mountains and deeper seas. Even I don't dare go head-to-head with any of the G.o.ds in this world. They fear me, but they all know, that if we fought, though the probability of them losing to me is high, there is still a lot of variables, and even if I win, I won't be able in top shape until a long period of time pa.s.ses. A good enough chance that any other deity could take me out with ease if they feel like it. Also, the Harbinger, that one, I don't even dare mess around with him. Always respect your foes, even Ashkar, even if he isn't a match to you in power, he had lived longer and has a lot of aces up his sleeves. Be careful."

"I will, thanks, man. Ralph, let's roll out." Dave said and the two left.

Dave didn't opt to use Onixya, it was best if they go without bringing too much attention to themselves. So they tore a teleportation scroll to Moria and appeared in its center. Right in front of them was a group of people, a party about to go raid the wilds. They weren't interesting enough for Dave to take a second glance, but one of them uttered, "s.h.i.+t, it's skelly!"

The tone sounded more like that of a person in fright than one who usually shouted Skelly's name in pure ear blistering fangirling style.

Dave turned to notice a priest that was hurriedly trying to blend in with his party members and away from Dave's sight.

Dave grinned he remembered this guy far too well. It was thanks to him and his buddy that Dave has gotten where he is today.

The draugr approached the group, and from the reaction of their frightened priest, the party understood that the two had a beef to settle.

Yet, surprisingly, and most interestingly, the party didn't budge or a clear way for Dave, they huddled up, armed up, and pointed their shaky weapons at Dave. They knew that the moment he wanted; he could tear them apart to get to the priest. But Dave respected their stance.

The priest in question had his eyes water up, he never thought that his party would stand up against overwhelming odds to protect him.

"Why do you protect him?" Dave asked.

The highest level of the party spoke up a tank that said, "Stainless Steel is our priest, even if you're skelly, you're not getting to him before you take us out."

"So you know who I am and still want to defend him? Why?" Dave asked.

"He is a good player, good healer, we rarely wiped with him along. And we leveled up greatly thanks to him, he saved us all on many occasions, without him our party would have never stood a chance in our adventures in the wilds. We know you had a beef with his friend, what was that douche's name again?" asked the tank.

"Bone Breaker," Spoke the priest.

"Yeah, that c.u.n.t. Even if the two of them were together when you got your legacy, remember that Bone Breaker also betrayed Stainless Steel while he was helping him out of his goodwill."

"Seems like you made quite the party. Stainless."

"Y-yes."

"But relax, I'm not here to cause any trouble. But honestly, I'm really surprised, if you'd done all that why did you quit being with the Devastators?" Dave asked, he knew that Stainless Steel was with the Devastators for a while but now he had the banner of another guild.

"Because you became friends with them. I thought you'd come after me once you knew I was in the Devastators so I left."

Dave shook his head. "I'm not that petty. Also, you never did anything to me. I got no reason to be p.i.s.sed at you, you're just overthinking. So is this a new guild, I never heard of it? Lothric?"

"Yeah, we just started it a few weeks ago," Stainless said.

"Just the five of you?" Dave asked.

"There are a couple of other players but they're disconnected."

"I understand you leaving the devastators, but you," Dave pointed at the tank, I'm more than sure that you were in one of the Devastators A teams."

"Yeah, so?"

"Why did you give up all of your Devastator privileges to get into a new guild?"

"We are all parts of the A teams. Once we teamed up with Stainless, we all knew that with him along any raid would be done with ease, so when he left, we also left."

Dave sighed. "Give me a moment," he said and contacted someone on his player contacts.

"Hey, it's me," Dave said. "I have a group here in Morya… Yeah. So you know. Yeah, hmm. I want them reinstated. Why? Because I'm skelly man. Should there be any other reason? Even if they left of their own volition, just take them back, I'm sure they won't refuse, especially if you're gonna be doing it for me…. Yeah,… thanks."

Dave hung up and said, "Yeah, so Valentine is gonna be calling you soon, you're getting your rank back at the Devastators and with additional bonuses. And you know why?"

The party was more than excited to hear the news but one had to answer Dave.

"Why?" asked the tank.

"If you hadn't stood up for your friend there, I wouldn't have even bothered with the lot of you. But you guys are good seeds. I hope to see you later on in the higher stages of this game. For now, I'm gonna go duke it out with a demi-G.o.d. Enjoy your gaming. Ralph let's go." Dave gestured with his head to Ralph to leave.

Just as the two were about to move.

"S-skelly, thanks." Said Stainless Steel.

"No worries man, you have a good party, take care of them. As for your friend…"

"He got what he deserves."

"Good line." Dave grinned and left the city
