[VRMMO] Dead One

As soon as the heart was put into the queen body, a massive amount of necrotic energy erupted that ended up sending Rampage, GreyHunt and ClownFrog into the air.

"Fuck meeeeee!" – said ClownFrog while flying in the air.

Moments later, the trio ended up hitting the ground after being send flying.

[HP: 7%]

"?!"

"Shit!"

ClownFrog began taking out potions from his inventory while having his HP keep decreasing because of the curse.

However, while ClownFrog was desperately drinking potions, most of his undeads present began dying at rapid rate, to the point of where the undead queen was able to complete broke free from their grasp, allowing her to regain the freedom of her upper part of the body and arms, before then attacking the scorpions that hold its legs, killing some of them and then regaining its freedom completely.

The monster tried standing up after regaining its freedom, but suddenly, the huge amount of cursed and necrotic energy began erupting from the monster chest.

"?!"

"Hey! Is it working?!" – asked Shri.

"I don't fuking know! I only fallowed instruction when implanting this thing!" – said ClownFrog.

[The [Dead Devouring Curse] is rampaging.]

[The damage per second has been increased from 0.5% to 1%.]

"?!"

ClownFrog body began emitting even more of the strange gas the moment the queen energy started rampaging .

"Oh fuck me!" – said ClownFrog.

"Give me your potions! Now!"

"What?" – said Oron.

"Hurry the fuck up! I'm dying for real now!" – said ClownFrog.

"!"

The party members began handing over their recovery potions for the ClownFrog.

ClownFrog continues drinking the potions like mad man while his HP continues to decrees at rapid rate nonstop.

While ClownFrog was trying to stay alive in the current situation, Rampage was busy with blocking the rampaging energy discharges emitted by the queen.

Shri also used her scorpions to act as the shields in order to block the rampaging energy, but her scorpions began sustaining heavy damage before then dying.

Rampages now had to defend herself and the team from the energy, but moments later, the rampaging energy began calming down before then completely stopping.

"?"

(My HP is no longer decreasing? I'm also not emitting that smoke any longer.)

"Is- "

Before Blueberry could say anything, the giant monster collapsed on the ground.

"…"

The party observed in silence the giant corpse that was not showing any sights of life.

"…"

"She isn't dead…. Is she?" – asked Shri.

"Well, the messenge didn't popped up or anything regarding us defeating her. So, she should be still alive?" – said GreyHunt.

"…"

"Em… Rampage go check." – said GreyHunt.

"Oh, fuck off! I'm literally half dead!" – said Rampage.

"Why don't you go?!"

"I'm also low on HP after I got hit with that explosion."

While the party members were arguing between themselves, the giant monster began groaning.

"!?!"

The party instantly put up their guard up before moments later, the giant undead began trying to get up.

"!"

"Wait!" – said ClownFrog.

The giant slowly got on its knees.

"Hmhmh…."

"W-where?"

"!"

(She speaks!)

"Excuse me!" – said ClownFrog.

"?!"

The giant looked towards the party with now human resembling eyes that she did not had before.

"W-who! Who the heck are you people?!" – said the giant monster.

"Wait. Why are you tiny?"

"It's not us who are tiny, you are literally a giant undead!" – said Shri.

"?!"

The giant looked at her arms and saw her inhuman hands.

"?!"

"W-what?! What happened?! What happened to me?!" – said the giant.

"…"

"Everybody. Put your weapons down." – said ClownFrog.

"Excuse me. Do you remember who you are?"

"I… I'm!"

"I'm Arrianhi Umil!"

"!"

"It worked?!" – said ClownFrog.

"Worked? What are you talking about?! I demand answers! Now!" – said the Arrianhi Umil.

"Calm down!" – said ClownFrog.

"Before I answer any of your questions, I need to make sure that you really remember everything."

"Do you remember the war between the Umil and Adernul kingdoms?"

"!"

"Y-yes! I do remember!"

"Those bastards wanted to use me and my people as a weapon, so a war broke out because of their greed."

"We were winning and I was about to crush them completely… Until…. Until…!"

"…"

"Do you remember?" – asked ClownFrog.

"Yes…. I remember…. What have he done to me?!"

(By the look of things the heart manage to restore her mind and sanity, but then why she is still a monster?)

"…"

"It will be a quiet long story and you may not like some parts of it. Do you want me to start talking now or after you calm down a little?" – asked ClownFrog.

"…"

"I…. Talk now."

"The last bits of my memory ends after I ended up being stabbed by that cursed blade and curse began spreading through my entire body."

"The next thing I know…. I'm this thing and you all stands in front of me."

"I want to know. What happened to me? I want answers."

"…"

"Okay. You may not like this. But here comes."

I've began explaining the whole situation from the beginning.

I told her that the war between Umil and Adernul kingdoms had ended long time ago with Umil kingdom defeat.

I told her that the reason of the Umil kingdom defeat was the cursed blade that completely destroyed her and robbed her of her powers over dead.

I explained to her that she ended up becoming a mindless undead with no sense of self when the curse devoured her completely.

I told her that her fallowers hid her here in order to try to restore her, but they were too late and the Umil kingdom was completely destroyed and taken over by the Adernul kingdom.

"…"

"M-my people! What happened to them?!" – asked Arrianhi Umil.

"…"

"The humans were enslaved and as for the demi human monsters, they were hunted down. Now the survivors are either slaves or live in hiding." – said ClownFrog.

"…"

"Then I have question."

"I can tell that you are not the desanders of my kingdom. Who are you people?"

"…"

"Allow me to explain."

I told her story about the Amaran and what happened to him.

I explained to her that we decided to help out Amaran in his revenge against the current king of the Adernul kingdom, Arnold Adernul.

I told her that the Amaran plan was to revive her, since she held even bigger hatreat towards the Adernul kingdom than him and that she would be able to destroy that kingdom with her own hands.

"…"

"I see."

"So the heart you implanted into me, was his last creation?"

"Yes."

"The heart was supposed to restore your mind and revive you, but something is definitely not right." – said ClownFrog.

"No wonder. That Amaran guy made a proper heart, but the heart alone won't do."

"My body was infected to the brim with that cursed energy and I'm not some nobody. I was a powerful necromancer that could threaten the entire kingdoms."

"If anything, the heart you gave me did restored my mind, but it did not restored my body or strength I once had."

"And to make matters worse. The cursed energy within my body has left me and that was the only thing keeping me alive. I have only between 1 or 2 mouths left before I die."

"?!"

"Oh fuck me! Then does that mean that everything we did so far was pointless?!" – said Shri.

"No." – said Arrianhi Umil.

"Now that my mind is restored, it's possible for me to be fully resurrected."

"?!"

"Then wait. We can still revive you?!" – asked GreyHunt.

"Yes. But it won't be easy."

"I need a human souls in order to begin the restoration process. But as things stand right now, we don't have any means of gathering the human souls, since my power over dead is still gone. You will need a tool that would allow you to store human souls.""

"You will need to somehow get your hands on soul lanterns. Those devices will- "

"Oh, we have those." – said Oron.

"…"

"What?"

"Yea. When we were working for the Amaran, he gave us 4 lanterns in order to gather souls necessary for that heart creation." – said ClownFrog.

"On top of that, we kind of gathered a lot of souls inside them."

(We kind of realized that those soul lanterns may come handy in the future, so when we were turning the Emerald city into a mess and when we were killing the extermination squad members as well as the villagers we slaughtered recently.)

"…"

"Can you show them to me?"

"Sure."

ClownFrog and the rest of the party began taking out the soul lanterns from their inventory before putting them on the ground.

After the party took out lanterns, the giant undead picked them one by one and began extracting souls from them.

"…"

"Is this enough?" – asked Shri.

"…"

"No. Nowhere near enough unfortunately."

"Oh. Shit." – said Rampage.

"So… How much would we need in order to be "Enough"?" – asked Oron.

"Well… I don't know really. My current state is mystery even to me."

"I can guess that I maybe would need a souls from between 1 to 3 cities in order to begin my recovery."

"Hm… I understand." – said ClownFrog.

"I don't think you 6 would be able to kill everybody in the city, so I have a proposal for you."

"Go and seek out the members of the 4 tribes and- "

"We already did that." – said ClownFrog.

"…"

"Fuking excuse me?"

"We realized that reviving you alone won't do a trick. So, for the revolution to took place and revive the Umil kingdom, so we seeked out the 4 monster tribes that lived in this kingdom."

"We managed to recruit all tribes, expect for the Melody Tail because of their current circumstances."

"However as things stands right now, we will be able to recruit them soon."

"Oh. One more thing. We also managed to recruit an minotaurs tribe to our alliance."

"…"

"Wow. That was…. Very thoughtful of you? I'm quite impressed with you all." – said Arrianhi Umil.

"So, can you ask them to help you out?"

"Yes." – said ClownFrog.

"Great. Then I will entrust you with this mission."
