Epic Of Caterpillar Chapter 1346 Skeleton Overlords

Chapter 1346 Skeleton Overlords

-----

Five skeleton knights stood in front of the castle of Helheim where Hel resided, their empty eyes glowed with bright blue flames, as they glanced over the horizon in silence.

All five of them exuded a powerful Aura of Death and Phantasmal energies, none of them were similar than the other, however, having very distinct features and looking different from one another than the other more generic Necrotic Death Lords who all looked like just the same copy-pasted skeleton with a black robe.

These ones were way more unique, some of them didn't even used magic staffs and were enormous, composed of many bones and wearing full body black armor made up of great and high-quality materials. One of them was wielding a gigantic bone axe, the other an enormous s.h.i.+eld and blade, and there was another with a long and sharp spear.

The other two seemed to be mages, however, although their robes were of more than just black color, one of them was wearing red robes and holding upon a mysterious and powerful staff holding a large red orb, the other was covered in black, purple, and dark blue leaves, without actually wearing any robes, there were even tree roots all around his body, and he was holding a staff made of this very same bizarre element.

These powerful beings seemed to have a higher authority than the other Necrotic Death Lords, as these Necrotic Death Lords were not truly the same as the other Necrotic Death Lords, they were even greater and more superior. They had evolved into higher beings, and three of them didn't even min-maxed into just necromancy but had sheer and brute force.

They seemed to be observing the vast expanse of the Astral Road, where many lives resided, countless lives that their innermost desires wanted to consume and bring back to death.

Their enormous auras spread around the entirety of the Realm and beyond that, and through that, they were able to detect things from far away, energies, and more.

"They're coming."

"I see… So finally."

"The Child of Chaos will finally dare to approach us."

"What about the other two Supremes?"

"At each of her sides."

The five Skeletons spoke to one another in crude and cold voices, seemingly robotic if it wasn't because they sounded more like old men and women. Heroes from the past, fragments from worlds where heroes fell, revived through the necrotic transcendence of the strongest beings of the Netherworld Plane, made only for the purpose of aiding Hel.

They were designed to fight and to kill, to bring life close to death, and to devour even the souls of supreme G.o.ds, if that was necessary.

And they were not going to move away from this position, as they were the royal guards of the Supreme G.o.ddess of Death and the End.

FLAs.h.!.+

A portal of death and darkness opened at their side, as they sensed the presence of the one, they were told to protect from the enemies coming here.

Hel slowly walked out of the Death Gate, finding the five skeletons looking into the sky.

"Did you sensed her too? Ah, all three of them are coming, how amusing…" giggled Hel. "They really think that because they're three, they can just win against me? It's not going to be as easy as you think, I am not even planning on being defeated today, Kireina…"

Hel looked into the skies, as she slowly walked back to her castle. The voices of the five knights spoke to her through telepathy without moving from their position.

"Lady of Death, what has happened to the wielder of the Sin of Gluttony?"

"It is a powerful Sin, if you give it to us…"

"I have not given it to anyone, and he's got some uses. I am not just going to kill him and give you the sin, do you think I am stupid or something? And who's better for using it than the wielder himself? Now that he had consumed the fruit, his body will change, and his powers shall skyrocket to the level of a Supreme… plus his sin… I think he might be very useful, as useful as a chained dog can get." Said Hel, as she entered her castle and sat down over her throne.

The knights seemed to have been interested in grabbing the Sin of Gluttony for some reason, the Hegemonies of their world had given them the secret task of acquiring the mysterious powers of this world, namely the Sins and Virtues which were not found anywhere else as strange as they were in Genesis.

They were of incredible preciousness and acquiring a copy of one of them was one of their tasks, although they ended being way too direct and ended making Hel only not want to give them the Sin even less than originally, which was already probably near zero.

They were not good at talking or convincing others, they were just warriors after all, and tried to offer her their strength and that they would be able to grow even stronger if they could acquire the Sin of Gluttony… of course, she rejected their proposal.

Hel sat down in her throne, she seemed quite confident despite the apparent odds, but well, there were more backers than just the Netherworld Plane Hegemonies with her, and one of such backers was an unexpected one she had never thought would try to become her ally to defeat Kireina and the other two Supreme G.o.ds.

Hel smiled as she looked into the small zombie girl at her side, wearing maid clothes, she was trembling in fear before her presence.

"Where's my tea?" she asked angrily.

"I-Immediately, lady Hel!" said the girl, running away to make her some tea into the kitchen of the castle.

"This girl is growing more and more disgusting to see her face… Hm, Redgaria I wonder if you're going to come for your sister… Or not? Fufu… This is the pleasure of being a death G.o.ddess, torturing people…"
