Honestly, Angelina didn’t know what he was on about . He was clearly familiar with her but she never met him which can only mean one thing…… he was an acquaintance of a friend of her little sister .
Sadly, the truth was far from that, he only participated in the same tournament as Lucy, they never actually spoke . Though the fight that occurred at the end made the whole trip to that lower world quite an unforgettable experience for the penniless Daoist .
After thoroughly inspecting the bald monk, Angelica asked
"You’re from the Thousand Buddha Sect?"
Gobu cupped his fists and greeted her in a traditional way, his actions and clothes were enough to prove his identity .
"Speak, when and where did you see me?"
His cultivation was quite low so when he was faced with Angelina’s suffocating aura, the monk’s face turned red and his body slightly shook .
"A f-few years ago in a lower realm . "
"Which world?!"
"I-I don’t know…… it was part of our Buddhist trial . The world we’re sent to is random . "
Angelina crossed her arms, pondered for a few moments before talking again:
"Tell me everything that happened and don’t miss any detail!"
Her threatening aura and suffocating pressure left the monk with no choice but to recount everything .
*****
The Underworld, The Silent Graveyard .
This place, controlled by the Lich King, was filled with undead of all types . Usually, any Undead summoned by a necromancer is brought from here and when it’s dead it’ll simply return to this eternal graveyard . However, there are exceptions as not all the undead summoned by Arthur are from the Underworld .
Today, the eerie graveyard had an unexpected individual who directly headed toward the ancient black castle situated at the center of this land of death . Aborak, the Lich King, is at all-time inside of that castle unless an urgent situation calls for him to personally act ……
A blurry silhouette was sitting on a throne made of bones, upon a close look, this figure wore a rugged black robe and had a skeletal body . Its eye-sockets were filled with ominous purple beams and a jet black crown was at the top of the skull .
Even when the uninvited guest appeared before the Lich King, the latter wasn’t perturbed or scared despite the big difference in strength .
He calmly sat on the throne and slowly raised his head, his non-existent pair of eyes landing on a man with short grey hair and an eye with the color of blood .
"I did not expect you to come here . "
The Lich had the demeanor of a king, an ever-lasting aura lingering around him and his voice was bone-chilling .
Arthur, who just barged in here, put his right hand on his chest and bowed toward the Lich King .
"It is good to see you too, Lich King . "
When he heard that, Aborak scoffed at Arthur and retorted:
"Good to see me? I don’t remember our last parting being on good terms, not after the mess you caused at the Grand Banquet . "
The purple beams filling the Lich’s eyes changed color, becoming blue as restlessly and creepily moved around . After studying Arthur’s friendly expression and seeing his overly-polite behavior, Aborak added:
"Nevertheless, it’s all in the past . I’m not a person who dwells on such things, after all, I wasn’t as affected as the others by all the ruckus . "
Strangely, even though Aborak was only at the God Realm, Arthur felt slightly threatened by him . It wasn’t the same feeling he’s got from Katrina but his instincts were still warning him . In fact, Aborak felt similar to the Grim Reaper, a being who can manipulate death and harvest souls .
’Indeed, I made the right choice by coming here . ’
A great army needs a good commander and vice-versa . Arthur couldn’t think of a candidate better than the Lich King himself, an expert in this field and probably the only one who can control the army stationed in Astria . He felt confident in convincing Aborak and if all goes well, he would have advanced another step toward the completion of his plan .
The army he would create and organize would be unstoppable, there cannot be a single mishap . Everything needs to be calculated and all factors are taken into account .
Arthur knew that the enemy won’t be just the White Specter Clan and for this reason, he wasn’t content with just an army of undead .
