Chapter 501 Two

The bald youth from the Orobona family froze, watching as these two Skeleton Warriors came into being. He felt as though he had been transported into another world, watching on incredulously.

It could be said that aside from those who came from families who might have a Summoning Necromancer in their history, Ryu was most definitely the most well informed on such a matter, especially after all the years of work he put into finding the Death Shrine.

For him, then, the Lower Skeleton Warrior was just the beginning. It was a mere tip of the iceberg in terms of what a Summoning Necromancer was capable of. He could already see a future where the profession had much more to offer. Or, more accurately, he had no choice but to aim for this future for the sake of Nemesis.

However, for the other youths here, even the lowest level Summoning Necromancer was like a God amongst men. For Ryu to suddenly display such abilities, and even form two of them, no less… They didn't know how to wrap their minds around such a thing.

The truth of the matter was that Ryu was shocked as well. He had only tried to summon just a single Skeleton Warrior, knowing that his poor cultivation would likely make it exceptionally difficult.

It had to be remembered that Skeleton Warriors, even the weakest kind, were Path Extinction Realm warriors at worse. Not only were they of this level, but even if they couldn't be considered to be equivalent to Sarriel, they would still be at about a Sovereign Grade Talent level.

This coupled with their higher cultivation made them more than a match for Sarriel alone. And, if two were put together, it was unlikely that she could come out on top.

This was the kind of monstrosity Ryu had just summoned two of, and he hadn't even found it very difficult. He still had over 50% of his qi reserves remaining.

Even though this obviously meant that these two had taken almost half his stamina away, the fact that there were two of them in the first place was more than enough to cover for this… Especially when Ryu had expected them to take up as much as 90% of his stamina for just one!

But, what happened next was even more shocking than maybe the fact two were summoned to begin with.

The Skeleton Warriors, rather than facing off against the bald youth did an about face and turned toward Ryu.

At first, Ryu thought that things had indeed been too good to be true. Could it be that his own Skeleton Warriors would turn against him?

Though this was rare considering the low intelligence of Skeleton Warriors, it was still a slim possibility. The more intelligent a Summon was, the more likely they would be to turn against the one who summoned them mid battle.

Still, Ryu's luck would have to be exceptionally poor for such a thing to happen to him, especially during his first summon…

But that was when the two Skeleton Warriors dropped to a knee and crossed their spears across their chests.

Ryu's gaze narrowed.

It was one thing if he had commanded the Skeleton Warriors to do such a thing, something the observers at this moment likely believed. But… He knew well himself that he most definitely hadn't done such a thing.

These Lower Skeleton Warriors… Had bowed of their own volition.

Standing once again to their feet, the two Skeleton Warriors pointed their spears toward the bald youth. In that moment, Nether Qi surged at their beck and call.

In a blink, their bodies were enveloped by winding thick black plumes of fog, their momentum still rising.

The bald youth felt as though the weight of the world had suddenly descended onto his shoulders. He couldn't fathom what kind of comprehension of the Spear Ryu had to have to cause his Skeleton Warriors to force such a reaction.

The truth was that Ryu was still trying to keep some of his cards in hidden. So, rather than using his Great Swordstaff comprehension, he was relying on his collapsed spear comprehension. However, he hadn't expect for the results to be so exaggerated.

'It seems that I've still managed to reveal too much… Let's end this.'

Hearing Ryu's command, the two Skeleton Warriors shot forward. They carried a nimbleness one weighed down by flesh couldn't possibly match.

The bald youth regained his composure. He had been through too much to get to this place for him to fold so easily. Worse come to worst, he would simply run.

And funnily enough, that was exactly what he chose to do. Without hesitation, he turned tail, blazing a trail for himself toward the city gates.

Ryu's eyes narrowed. "Let's go Nemesis."

"~NIE!"

With a kick, Nemesis shot into the skies. With a single gallop, he crossed hundreds of meters, his hooves seemingly forming stairs of their own.

Ryu's grimoire appeared before him, a cold indifference in his eyes as it flipped to the pages surging with ice elemental energy.

Spears of ice began to manifest in the air, their numbers growing explosively in an instant. For a moment, it felt as though the entire city had been plunged into an icy hell, even some of the weaker youths felt their skin freeze over, the cold becoming far too much for them to handle.

The concentration of yin was so high that Ryu practically blotted out the skies with these spears. By the time the bald youth felt a shadow pass over his head and he looked to find thousands of ice spears aimed toward his back, his only reaction could be to shiver, his pupils constricting.

It was exactly then that Ryu lowered his finger, causing them all to descend at once.

The bald youth roared, his spear jetting outward and shattering as many as stood in his way. But, the slowing down of his retreat allowed Ryu's Skeleton Warriors to catch up, embroiling him in the very battle he didn't want to be in, in the first place.
