Chapter 612 The Undead Arrive 2

In the midst of the desolation, a figure emerged—a stark contrast to the tumult that surrounded him. His gait was unhurried, steps measured as if he feared disturbing fragile serenity beneath his feet. The wreckage of the battlefield, though strewn with ash and tainted by blood, seemed to part before him, leaving his shoes untouched and pristine—a manifestation of a power that extended beyond the obvious.

His attire, though lacking the ostentation of high fashion, bore a certain casual elegance. The top buttons of his shirt were nonchalantly undone, and his black trousers, perfectly tailored, hinted at an understated refinement. Despite the chaos that had unfolded, he carried himself with an air of carefree indifference, as if the surrounding pandemonium were inconsequential to his tranquil existence.

What truly set him apart, however, were the sinuous locks of serpentine hair that adorned his head—a distinctive feature that bespoke an otherworldly lineage. These snakes, seemingly alive and animate, moved with a serpentine grace, adding an air of mystique to the man's enigmatic presence.

As he traversed the ruined landscape, a peculiar phenomenon unfolded. The ash and blood, which clung tenaciously to the scarred ground, dared not blemish his footwear. It was as if the very essence of his being repelled the stains, a subtle manifestation of an unseen power that surrounded him.

Governor Momoa, amidst the chaos of the battlefield, turned his gaze toward this unexpected arrival. Recognition flashed in his eyes as he beheld the signature serpentine hair—an unmistakable trait shared by someone he knew all too well. A low chuckle escaped the governor's lips, a wry acknowledgment of the complex history they shared.

"You are one of my bastard sons that managed to escape me that day, aren't you?" Governor Momoa's words, though casual, held a layer of intrigue. The man before him exuded an intelligence that transcended the apparent nonchalance—a cunning nature veiled beneath an exterior of carefree elegance.

"I'm not surprised that you don't even know my name," Duncan retorted with an air of nonchalance. His response carried a subtle undercurrent of disdain, as if the revelation of his identity were inconsequential. "But no matter, I am not here for that."

With a casual wave of his hand, Duncan conjured a low-glowing orb, its faint hum permeating the air. The same ethereal sphere he had employed to claim the soul of his lover, Clawed, now held a pivotal role in the unfolding negotiation.

"I know you have the heart of a rank 4 hell beast with you. I am also aware that it has within it my brother's soul. I am here to offer you a trade," Duncan whispered, his gaze locked onto his father, Governor Momoa. There was a measured intensity in his eyes, a determination that mirrored the unwavering resolve of a seasoned negotiator.

lightsnοvεl.cοm Governor Momoa, however, responded with a low chuckle, dismissing Duncan's proposition with an air of disdain. "Are you so foolish?" he remarked, eyeing Duncan as if he were a mere jest. "Who the hell do you think you are to be making demands of me?"

The governor's scornful tone carried an implicit warning, a subtle reminder of the hierarchy that governed their interactions. Despite the familial connection, there was an unspoken understanding that the patriarchal authority held sway, and Duncan's attempts at negotiation were met with a dismissive rebuff.

"You are merely trash from my loins that I spat into a hole somewhere. Merely at the Deep Demon realm. Who do you think you are to be making demands of me?" Governor Momoa's disdainful words hung in the air, emphasizing the vast power difference between them. "Haven't you learned, boy? In this world, one can only make requests when two parties are of equal or nearly equal power. The weak do not have a say in anything."

Governor Momoa extended his hand, demanding the orb. His perceptive eyes discerned the essence within – the soul of a fallen Great Demon powerhouse. However, Duncan responded with a mocking chuckle, clearly unperturbed by his father's authoritative tone. Observing the disfigured visage of his father, Duncan seized the opportune moment to strike.

With a casual wave of his hand, another figure stepped forward, joining the confrontation.

The undead commander emerged from the shadows, his presence marking a significant shift in the atmosphere. Clad in tattered rags that barely clung to his skeletal form, the undead commander bore the remnants of a past existence. The hollow sockets where his eyes once resided emanated an eerie purple glow, a testament to the otherworldly energy coursing through the orb embedded within his chest.

His undead visage was a juxtaposition of decay and mystique, the ethereal light casting an unsettling aura around him. The commander moved with an otherworldly grace, a spectral figure navigating the ruins with an air of silent authority. The frayed fabric hanging from his bony frame whispered in the wind, adding an eerie soundtrack to his every movement.

Despite the lack of conventional armor, the undead commander's presence commanded attention, a spectral harbinger of death and decay, bound to serve a purpose beyond the mortal realm.

Governor Momoa's eyes gleamed with avarice as he observed the unfolding scene—a Great Demon's soul and an invitation stone seemingly laid out for him.

The undead commander, though bearing a silent resentment, followed Duncan's command, refraining from attacking. Instead, it turned toward a pool of vibrant blue blood left behind by the primordial beast's catastrophic demise.

With a decisive movement, the undead commander detached the purple glowing stone from its skeletal chest. The ethereal radiance cast eerie reflections across the desolate battlefield as it approached the pool of primordial blood. With a deliberate motion, the commander dropped the purple stone into the viscous liquid.

The blue blood reacted to the intrusion, the hues shifting and swirling around the stone. The once vibrant pool now pulsed with an otherworldly energy, and a low hum reverberated through the air. Governor Momoa, unaware of the significance of what transpired, watched with heightened anticipation.

The invitation stone, once a harbinger of mystical power, now merged with the essence of a fallen Great Demon, creating a confluence of energies that transcended the boundaries of the mortal and demonic realms. It was a moment pregnant with both power and consequence, and Governor Momoa couldn't help but watch in surprise...
