The Ruined Death Knight-Novel

`Though I could take my time to finish those giants, I doubt that Nersan could still be in one piece. And for my goal, I would need his help.´ Danzel thought to himself.

The treasury did interest him quite a bit, but to his ethereal eyes had a secondary of importance. Something like a side quest.

Although it would be nice to get a new weapon and armor of better quality, it wasn´t necessary.

First of all, he came and make his home the tower to farm the remaining XP for his remaining 5 missing levels that hopefully would unlock the evolution process.

`I planned to earn them slowly by minding my business alone in the tower, but I guess that´s no longer an option.

Having some giants bags of XP in front of him that were basically worth 20 hours each. Danzel of course didn´t want to miss any of them.

The only problem he currently found was the lack of weapons that he had for destroying those giant undead hybrids.

"I should even collect the other weapons from the fallen before following Nersan..." Danzel mumbled annoyed as he guided the mana in his body.

Using [Swift Movements] to accelerate towards the flesh golems, the moment he saw them raise their voulge up high Danzel switched his grip on the spear and took a throwing pose.

"Take that!~" Using his whole strength, he threw the spear towards the eye of the nearest flesh golem.

*Fsoooh~!

Although he wasn´t very much used to throwing his spear like a javelin, he still had the knowledge of the [Intermendiate Weapon Mastery] which by now turned into his current swordsmanship, [Death Guarding Swordmanship].

Essential giving the necessary knowledge of how to throw a spear and use all other weapons decently.

Alas, practice makes perfect.

And Danzel had none of it, making the spear fly towards the neck instead of the eye.

But that didn´t pain Danzel much as his throw achieved what it was supposed to do.

Distracting the giant flesh golem.

The flesh golem in question felt threatened by the spear and raised its hand to catch the spear.

*Brough~

With the spear penetrating the palm of the flesh golem´s midway, some cracks appeared, but that was it.

The flesh golem but its hand away and looked at where the indurated was supposed to be with a growl, but to its surprise, he found nothing there.

That was because he already reached near its feet.

The other Flesh golem though didn´t miss Danzel nearing the fellow tortured one.

Before it wanted to sweep its giant voulge and send the intruder flying off the pathway or cut him in half and be done with it, but now it changed its mind.

Moving a step back, it pushed the spear voulge blunt end between its fellow tortured one in where the intruder was in order to crush him.

"That makes thing´s easier..." Danzel mumbled as he used the skill [Leap]to jump up high to dodge the incoming voulge.

*Brough!

A loud sound of the blunt end of the voulge meeting with the floor of the pathway was made, but the floor didn´t show any signs of damage which impressed Danzel who now was standing in the voulge shaft.

The moment the flesh golem saw the intruder standing in his weapon, it dragged it back with one hand while the other palm was pushed towards Danzel to slap him as one would do with an annoying fly.

Gathering his mana once more, he used [Leap] once more while ignoring the heat that came from the abuse of mana and moved away from the danger of being slapped away.

Jumping towards the back of the still confused flesh golem, he brought another spear out of his storage ring and pierced it to its back to use it as a footing for himself.

Realizing that something hit its back, the flesh golem reached out to touch the spot and pull out something that was stuck in its body.

Bring it forward and looking at what it was, the flesh golem growled in confusion at the sight of the spear.

"Growll~?"

All that without realizing that Danzel was mid-air in where its neck was.

Bringing out an axe that he had from the storage ring, he swung at the flesh golems neck and cut a large portion of it, effectively cutting the area where the brain sends out commands towards the rest of its stone body.

"Gwaaah~!"

Just like before, a loud scream sounded like a mix of a dog and a human being in extrusion pain.

Even when Danzel receive the notification that he had killed the flesh golem, it didn´t stop howling while the remaining stone body started to fall.

`I got to hurry before it falls...´ Danzel though as he moved swiftly towards the top of the flesh golem head while ignoring the pain that it was suffering.

Time was in essence and he couldn´t care less of his enemy's pain.

Looking at the platform he fell from, Danzel gathered his mana in his legs.

"You will have to wait for later." Danzel said towards the remaining flesh golem before jumping as high as he could towards the platform.

Though he had the axe as a slashing weapon, because of the weapon's nature it was more suited for powerful hits that making large cuts with swords.

Observing the status of the flesh golem, he did notice that the damage expert their head was extremely minimally in where their head was the sweet spot in damaging the.

Similar to how his body worked and yet different.

In his case, he could only be fully destroyed or dir if his skull, which was holding his consciousness was destroyed, but destroying other parts of his body would make him feel weaker from the lost dead mana in his body.

For the flesh golem as far as he noticed, the head was where the whole undead and its consciousness lay, and the body itself was a tool that didn't affect the main body which is the head.

Getting off point, Danzel needed weapons that he could use to effectively destroy their head.

He had the axe now, but he didn't fancy him much.

So reaching to Nersan who could make weapons and guide him to the Treasury was a must.

But even after using the flesh giant to get a higher footing, using [Leap] to jump higher and [Swift Movements] to make himself lighter, Danzel was only a meter away from reaching the platform he fell off even after reaching his hand out.

One had to say that below him was nothing else but a fall to the meter is the end.

Before he was pushed with the voulge, making him reach the platform he was before, but now that wasn't the case.

If he fell, he will probably die.

That though didn't his mind though.

Maybe it was because he somewhat expected it or that because of his talent [Undying] he felt much less fear of death.

That didn't mean that he was going to let himself fall off through hundreds of meters.

Using his mind, he cast two mana arms in front of him, the one holding the platform while the other one holding the end of the other hand, essentially making a chain of arms long enough for Danzel to reach.

Letting the axe fall, he gripped the ha da swiftly and dragged himself high enough to let its other arm grab the platform before he started to feel the disturbance of mana.

Glaring below him, Danzel felt annoyed at the remaining flesh golem starting at him with its bloodshot eye.

"Peeking bastard, just wait until I finish my dept on those here." Danzel cursed as he dragged himself on the platform.

Looking ahead of him, he saw Nersan tobe now dressed up in armor and wielding a spear.

Nersan used to create sand under his fret to jump around in the air to escape the grasp and voulges looking to cut hi newly accrued body.

Daniel just seeing that was impressive because not only was Nersan physically strong but was also using magic in such an effective way if one were to consider the circumstances of the flesh golem disturbing the spells of him.

Looking from far away, he looked fine and slowly but surely damaged the flesh of golems stone body even if only a little bit.

But Danzel knew that wasn't the case.

Though he had some absurd amounts of mana, there was a limit.

'That's probably also the case on his body.' Daniel thought as he looked at the Nersan.

Though his true body was of the never-tiring undead, his current body was of a living girl, who probably didn't have much stamina or endurance in her stats.

'I guess I should start moving.'

With [Swift Movements] still being activated in his body, he grabbed the last axe that had and rushed towards one of the flesh golems.

Nersan'rah who was observing the whole field quickly took notice of Danzel and was surprised to see him up here when he actually fell from the platform.

Seeing him running at the flesh golems though, he wanted to shout out how strong they were.

But before he could say something Danzel swept his axe on the ankle of the flesh golem, completely destroying it and making the flesh golem fall to one of his knees.

Seeing this inflict such strength, Nersan sucked the words that he want to say back to his throat.

'He is indeed strong....' He thought as he dodged much easier with a flesh golem out of his way.
