Chapter 40 Dangerous Mission

?The army they saw from the balcony was just one squad of many. The Undead Legion came from all sides surrounding the castle. It was a daunting scene to witness, and everyone, whether vampires or humans, feared death!

"Undead Legion? Who are they?" Damian asked.

Serana packed everything that she needed, all in one bag, trying to do it as fast as possible, but she was not that confident about leaving with his life.

"I cannot let everyone under my command die. There is a secret tunnel that we can use. Then, after everyone is out of where, you and I can escape. Alright?" Serana said.

Even though she disliked her position as the Queen, there were some good vampires and humans under her command, and Serana could not let them die and become zombies. That would be too cruel!

Damian could understand her point and was not angry about it. Serana left her room, calling everyone from the castle.

"It is the Undead Legion! Everyone, follow your Queen, there is a tunnel we can use!"

The word spread quickly in the castle, and soon everyone was in the hallway in front of Serana's room on the second floor. Even Gerard was there.

"I want to kill that human guy, but I cannot do that dead!"

Gerard swallowed his pride and prioritized his escape first.

Serana opened the door to her room, and people started going inside. She went to a specific area of her room, pulling out a candle, opening a secret passage.

"Just like in the movies," Damian thought.

The passage was not a fancy tunnel with a staircase, but a freaking hole. One had to jump and hope its body would have sufficient strength to withstand the fall.

"This exit was only designed for vampires that have powerful bodies, but I will stay down there, catching all of you humans," Serana said.

Some vampires were the first to jump to make sure the passage was safe to use. After they were certain of it, Serana went, and remained down there, catching all the humans.

"Just keep going and wait outside for everyone!"

That was their initial plan. No one needed to wait for others inside the tunnel. They would just leave it first and regroup afterward.

The humans kept going until only Damian remained. Serana screamed from down there, "jump, Damian."

But as he was about to do it, he heard something coming from the hallway, and the doors opened! Damian could not jump, as they would see the passage and go after everyone!

His body was covering the passage, so using his mental abilities, he moved the candle, closing the secret passage.

"Fuck. If I tried to jump, they would see it, and would kill me and everyone else. Why am I always the unlucky one?" Damian thought, turning his body to face the enemies.

Two zombies wearing heavy plate armor were staring at him. They weren't moving, and were more like waiting for their commander to show up.

After some time, a woman appeared in the hallway. She wore a black robe similar to those of necromancers, but her slender legs were still at sight, catching the attention of everyone.

Her hair was as white as a Snowdrop's petal, and her pupils were black. When Damian looked at it, it was like staring at a black hole.

That was the leader of the Undead Legion everyone feared, Druvana Incarnate.

Damian was expecting an ugly lich, but got a gorgeous woman instead. She stared at him the moment she stepped into the bedroom.

"And who are you?" Druvana said, analyzing Damian from head to toe.

Before Damian could think about an answer, a quest from the system popped before his eyes.

<New Quest>

<Seduce Druvana, and get a blowjob from her>

<Prize: 10 Erotic Coins, and a Necromancer Tome>

<Fail the Quest: You die>

"What is this? Not that many Erotic Coins, but a Necromancer Tome sounds dope as fuck! But if I fail the Quest, I die? Well, it makes sense. The only way out for me is to seduce her and flee…"

The prizes were quite good, and Damian had to complete it. He knew her name because the System told him, and that was an advantage he could use!

"I'm Damian. It is an honor to be in the same room as the most famous Necromancer of all, Druvana! Your stories are like legends!"

Druvana had her eyes wide open. Almost no one knew her true name, and those who did not know her appearance! Damian instantly became mysterious in her eyes.

"Oh? You really think I am the greatest Necromancer? Just by looking at you, I knew you were a wise one," Druvana said, smiling like a kid.

Damian could tell she was someone who loved compliments, but he could not overdo it, as that would make him look like a lier.

"You are controlling this huge number of undead at the same time. I cannot think of another name that can do that!"

"YES! Only my teacher could, but no one knows his name, so it is understandable that you don't know it either. I was thinking of tying you up, but now you can come with me. But behave yourself, or I will rip your skin off and feed you to my zombies."

"…"

The change of humor was a drastic one, and Damian was worrying, thinking that his charm would not be enough to seduce Druvana.

Serana saw the passage close, and she was not dumb to understand something had happened.

"Damian!" she screamed internally.

She wanted to rescue him, but now that the passage was closed, the only way out of there was to follow the tunnel. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

Serana turned around with teary eyes, following everyone else. Gerard was there, happy to see Damian out of the picture.

"Don't be sad, Serana. He was only a human, so you two wouldn't work out," Gerard said, but before he could finish the rest of his sentence, Serana slapped him in the face so hard he retreated a few steps.

She was stronger than him, therefore she was not afraid, and would not tolerate his words, "shut the fuck up, rat."
