Velian stood atop the sturdy wall, his eyes darting across the darkened forest. It was a restless day, and the air was thick with an eerie silence that seemed to press down upon him like a heavyweight, but the undead kept advancing so he had no time to motivation to real even a little bit.
As he gazed out into the darkness, he saw something that made him realise things are getting serious.
A group of undead creatures was emerging from the forest, their ragged forms shuffling slowly towards the town.
But as he looked closer, he noticed something else. A young woman was following them from behind, her face contorted with anger and determination and it obviously looked like she was their leader because of how much she stood out.
Velian couldn't quite place where he had seen her before, but there was something familiar about her features.
"Hmm~ this woman, she looks familiar, but where?" Confused about it, Velian used his memory to its full power but he still couldn't catch who she is.
She wasn't close enough for him to use appraisal, so he had no way to know who she is, at least right now.
As she drew closer, Velian's body was trembling to ask Jim to go and destroy everyone. But still, he held back since the question remained.
Who was she, and what was she doing here?
Remi and the others were working hard to reinforce the wall, so Velian decided to go and face this army head-on to see whether someone would be able to overpower him.
It was dangerous, but still, he wanted to do it since letting them get close to the wall was the last thing he wanted.

With a prideful look on his face, Velian descended from the sky and loomed over the undead army. He folded his hands and stood tall, his eyes locked on the woman before him.
"I demand to speak with your real leader," he announced, his voice echoing across the battlefield.
"I don't know who you are, but bring out Andriya,"
The undead soldiers stood motionless, their eyes fixed on Velian with a mixture of fear and awe. But the woman in front of him merely smiled, as if she found his arrogance amusing.
"And what makes you think we have anything to say to you, little boy?" she asked, her voice laced with a hint of amusement.
She wondered how Velian knew about her and then she realised it was obvious since the news about the attack must be already spreading throughout the kingdom.
Velian snorted, a burst of flame erupting from his fingertips showing his words stent friendly.
"Because if you don't, I'll be forced to kill you all," he growled, his eyes blazing with fury.
The woman merely raised an eyebrow.
"Is that a threat, boy?" she asked, her tone mocking.
Velian glared at her, his fists clenched.
"It's a warning," he spat on her with harsh words.
"And one you would be wise to heed. We are not to be trifled with and I guess you clearly witnessed what happened to your army earlier."
The woman's smile widened, and she took a step closer to the place where Velian was floating.
"And neither are we, boy," she said, her eyes locked on his.
"But perhaps we can come to an arrangement. After all, I sense a power in you that could be of use to us."
Velian narrowed his eyes, suspicion creeping into his mind.
"What kind of arrangement?" he asked warily.
"Join us, we can conquer this whole land and divide it between us, you can have whatever you want be it money or women," Andriya muttered, but she was just trying to make him drop his guard, so she can kill him.
"I need no such things, I won't say it again, surrender and ask Andriya to come here, you will have one minute before I use the same sell again," Velian warned and waited for their answer, but then hid toroidal completed as took a look at the menu only to see something absurd.

It was then that he realized who she was. The realization hit him like a bolt of lightning, and he gasped in shock.
"Shit! Why didn't I think this bitch can get younger? It looks like I have to be careful with her,"
"Don't be a fool, young man," Andriya shouted frustrated by his behaviour. She could have attacked Velian if she had some wyverns, but unfortunately, she didn't so her only option was to make him join her for the time being.
"Don't you know how good a women's body is, if you want, I will let you play with me, come down and join with me, you're handsome boy, and I will take care of you," Andriya shouted.
But Velian didn't care about any of these, he just wanted to know how Andriya gained so much power. For a moment, he wondered whether she had a system just like him, and it really didn't sit right with him.
"Andriya, don't you remember me?" Velian questioned hoping to confuse her.
And she really did panic, as she wondered how he knew about her real identity. There was no way a young boy knew about her youthful appearance, so it really confused her.
"How did you know it was me? Who are you? Are you a competitor? It makes sense to you're one with that much power," Andriya asked, but Velian got even more confused, but he didn't want to show that he didn't know what Andriya was talking about.
"Ohh! This is a surprise, I didn't know I will meet a fellow competitor," Velian acted like he knew what she was talking about, but in reality, he just wanted to squeeze out some juicy information.
