Chapter 397 - : Anya

....

"Mother, look!" A young child near the Kiel Family's territory looked into the sky, his eyes filled with shock and horror as he saw an unknown creature flying through the sky.

The night was dark, with the moon hidden behind the massive figure of the dragon-like creature that soared towards the Kiel Family's domain.

The child tugged at his mother's sleeve, his voice trembling a little. "Mother, what is that? It's so big! I've never seen anything like it before."

"D-don't look at it!" The Mother quickly took her child into her embrace, stopping him from looking at the sky.

She appeared as if she was truly scared of the creature in the sky. Or rather, she was scared of the people who could afford to travel on such a frightening creature.

As the creature passed through the area, a large gust of wind was following him which uprooted many trees along the way. The people traveling on the creature didn't seem to care about the destruction they were causing along the way.

It wasn't the first phenomenon of such a creature being seen near the Kiel Family's territory that night. From other directions, creatures that were just as frightening could be seen flying towards the Kiel Family.

"You are hungry?" A young girl was sitting on the undead dragon, patting his back. It was as if she was able to talk to the undead dragon that didn't even make the slightest noise.

"I think I saw a city along the way. If you're hungry, I allow you to have a feast." The woman smiled in response as she felt the aura of her undead dragon growing more fierce.

....

The mother had barely held on against the fierce winds. It was only when the winds passed through that she finally sighed in relief.

She was just about to place her son on the ground, telling him to sleep. Unfortunately, her entire body suddenly froze in fear. The sky turned dark again, a sense of dread spreading throughout her body.

Trembling, she looked back. The earth itself trembled as a corpse dragon, whose flesh appeared to be rotting, landed in the middle of the town.

She couldn't even react. All she saw was the Corpse Dragon opening its mouth, coming to devour her and her son whole.

"Run!" She yelled at her son, but it was too late. To her horror, the dragon ripped through her son's flesh, devouring him whole.

"My baby only likes fresh and tender meat. You can leave." An arrogant voice came, as a young girl jumped down from the Corpse Dragon's back.

She spoke as if she were doing the mother a favor, even after her dragon had devoured the woman's child.

The Corpse Dragon didn't stop. From one house to another, it began causing destruction, drawing families out and devouring the children.

Overcome with grief and rage, the mother rushed towards the girl.

"Foolish. Why don't these insects accept my kindness?" The girl, who appeared to be in her early twenties, simply sighed.

Get the latest from m-vl-emp _yr.

She waved her hand gently, and an unknown force surrounded the mother, causing her flesh to start decaying until only a skeleton remained, which fell at the girl's feet.

"You really should have accepted my kindness," the girl said, shaking her head before stomping on the woman's skull, leaving only crushed pieces behind.

Within a few minutes, the entire town was left in ruins. Not a single person in the town was left alive.

Even if the town came in the territory of the Kiel Family, the girl didn't appear to care. She appeared extremely carefree as she walked back to the Corpse Dragon, whose aura had stabilized.

She stepped in the air, landing on the Corpse Dragon which spread its rotten wings, rising in the sky. Only death and carnage was left behind as the corpse dragon left the city.

It wasn't the only town where such an incident took place. During this night, many other places suffered through a similar incident. All these places appeared to be in the territory of the Kiel Clan which had invited these families.

None of the family representatives cared about the Kiel Clan's integrity. It was the weakest out of all major families after all.

If they hadn't claimed to have something important about the Holy Church to discuss, many families wouldn't even care about coming to this godforsaken territory.

Even then, some family heads didn't care about going personally, sending their children instead. Only a few family heads had come personally, being from the lower echelon of the major families.

....

A few hours passed when the Corpse Dragon entered the city where the Kiel Family's base was established.

The Kiel Family Guards grew alert at the sight of the approaching corpse dragon. The Captain of the Kiel Family Guards personally went out to welcome the person riding the corpse dragon.

The Captain was more cautious than ever. Even though the girl was not a family head, she was representing the strongest of the Major Families.

While the Kiel Family's Territory was on the borders of the Northern Continent, her family's territory was closest to the Necromancer Tower.

In terms of strength, the difference between the Greyndor family and Kiel Family was like heaven and earth.

That alone was frightening enough, but what was even scarier was the fact that the girl had been selected by the Necromancer Tower.

She was a disciple of the Left Guardian of the Necromancer Tower, who was rumored to have taken an interest in her talent.

"Greetings, Lady Anya."

"Hmph, why is your family head not here to welcome me? Are you looking down on the Greyndor Family?" The woman asked, her eyes observing the Captain of the Guards lazily. freewebnoveℓ.com

The Captain of the Guards didn't know how to react. Wasn't she being too disrespectful? Even if her family was strong, she was not the family head. She wanted the Kiel Family Head to welcome her personally? Wasn't it her who was looking down on them?
