Chapter 123: A Rather Special Lich
Catherine arrived at Ambrose's castle expecting to see swarms of skeletons and zombies, perhaps even cabinets stuffed with human organs on display.
After all, he was a lich. It would be stranger if that weren't the case.
Yet to Catherine's surprise, the castle was unexpectedly clean, if somewhat plain.
Not only were there very few ugly undead to be seen, they were welcomed by a young human woman. And she was even alive!
Though she did freeze for quite a while after seeing Catherine for the first time, Catherine was still very pleased by Ambrose's attention to detail.
At the very least, he was showing the elves sufficient respect.
After some prompting, Isabel finally snapped out of her trance and, following Ambrose's instructions, showed the elves to the rooms that had been readied for them. As she closed the doors, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "I can't believe there are such beautiful elves in the world…"
Her eyes had been fixed on Catherine the entire time. She had no idea what the other elves even looked like.
The injured elves were treated right away. Without demonic interference, the elven healers were able to patch them up in no time. With a few healing potions and recovery spells, the severely wounded became lightly wounded, and the lightly wounded were healed almost to full health.
