Chapter 931: Chapter 931 Weakening Seal

Chapter 931 Weakening Seal

"You… our ancestor? You don't seem like it. I can tell you're only just over twenty years old." The necromancer sneered.

He wouldn't be fooled by Grey's words. Even though he was in the Sage Plane just like Grey, he was still older and more experienced. Of course, he also didn't know much about their ancestors, so he was a little doubtful.

But being a Sage Plane Elementalists meant that he could at least tell the age of a lower ranked Elementalist from their bones. Grey's bone age was around twenty, so there was no way he was one of their ancestors. If his guess was right, Grey was bluffing.

'You thought it would work?' Void asked Grey mockingly.

'It's worth the shot. Besides, if I was able to trick him, I might get my hands on that technique of theirs. Since I can't remove the mark on my own, maybe there's a way I can figure it out from the original technique.' Grey replied.

'Doable, but I don't think someone as low ranked as him would have it with him.' Void said.

The issue of the necromancers was starting to become a pain for them. They always had to look out for any necromancer whenever they were out of the Faction.

"I can easily confuse your senses." Grey replied with the same expression, he didn't even blink even though the necromancer had seen through his facade.

"I'm certain that you're not one of us, nor are you one of our ancestors. I wonder how you managed to learn such a complex and hard technique." The necromancer said, referring to the tendril Grey did some time ago.

The tendril might look normal to other Elementalists, but a necromancer knew just how powerful it was. It was the main ingredient for making their corpse puppets. It was also what they use in controlling it.

For Grey to have his hands on it meant that he must have seen a necromancer who had it.

Unknown to the necromancer, Grey only got this from his little experiments.

Two coffins appeared on the side of the necromancer. He was done talking with Grey.

Grey raised his brows when he saw this, he didn't think the man wouldn't want to play along any further.

He smiled before sending a tendril at the coffins, before the necromancer opened the coffins, Grey's tendrils had sneaked into it and into the body of the corpses, taking control over it.

Just as the necromancer was about to take control of the corpses to attack Grey, his expression changed and he hastily removed his consciousness from them with a sharp pain in his head.

Gritting his teeth, he turned to Grey, "What did you do?"

"You're asking about this?" Grey smiled and the corpses walked out of the coffins. With a playful smirk, Grey turned to look at the necromancer, "I already told you I'm one of your so called ancestors, it's a shame you didn't believe me."

After the corpses walked out, they fell to the ground with a 'Thud'.

Even though Grey wanted to scare the man into telling him what he wanted, there was no way he would control corpses. The dead are to be respected.

The necromancer was stunned when he saw Grey easily decapitating the corpses. What he found more shocking was how Grey took control of them and forced him out.

One has to know that since he was the one who refined the corpses, it was almost impossible for another person to take control over them, unless said person was at least a Plane ahead of him. But Grey was only in the Third stage of the Sage Plane, two stages below him, so it was a shocking scene to behold.

At this moment, doubt started to creep into his mind, not just doubt, but other thoughts as well. If what Grey said was correct and he was truly one of their ancestors, then he could curry favor from him. With such a figure behind him, he would advance by leaps and bounds.

Although, he was still skeptical since Grey was only in the Sage Plane. Given how old their ancestors were supposed to be, Grey should be at the very peak by now.

'Could it be that the portal has been damaged and he slipped through? He might be a genius from the other side who came here to train.'

When this train of thoughts entered his head, it all started to make sense. According to what he heard from their Patriarch, the seal was weakening, and their ancestors would soon be free to step into this world once again. It is common knowledge that the creators of necromancy were not humans, and their knowledge in the act far exceeded humans.

Even the current Patriarch of the necromancers might not be on the same level as a genius from that realm.

Thinking of all this, excitement started to brew in the heart of the necromancer. If what Grey said was true, then he might be able to learn a lot from him.

Grey could notice the change in the man after he took control of the corpses.

'Don't tell me he fell for it?' Void looked at the necromancer as if he was staring at an idiot.

How could he believe Grey was actually on their side? All he had to do was to tell Grey to remove the mark on him and it'll solve everything, yet, he wanted to attack him.

'Hehe, of course. As you can see, he's a weakling, and his status among necromancers isn't high. First off, you can see that he's already over thirty, yet he's still in the Fifth stage of the Sage Plane. Poor talent, means lower status. However, if he were to meet with someone from the origins of necromancy, then his status and strength would skyrocket.' Grey explained.

Void naturally understood this, but he still found it shocking that the man believed so easily. All Grey did was to take control over his corpses, how hard was that?

"How can I be sure that you're truly among our ancestors?" The necromancer asked, his voice a little softer now.

Grey naturally expected such a stance from him after he showed him some of his tricks. But he knew that would not be enough to convince the necromancer.

He nodded and his eyes glowed with a blue light, the corpses that were on the ground suddenly stood up, their eyes turning blue as well. In fact, the necromancer could swear he saw a bit of emotion in their eyes.

A few seconds later, they fell to the ground once again.

'Huh? What did you do?' Even Void was shocked.

'Nothing, I only wiped off what little bit of consciousness they still had left. Remember that corpse that used the blue flames?' Grey said casually.

Void nodded. It was thanks to the corpse that the duo appeared on that mountain. Void broke through to the Sage Plane there, and Grey got the icy flames from there as well.

'I noticed that some of the corpses still have a bit of their consciousness left, this flame can help in not only preserving it, but also extinguishing it as well. After that corpse, I've done some research on other corpses and noticed they had a bit of consciousness left. Not all, but some do. I believe the ones who have it are those killed by these necromancers. When I took control over these guys, I noticed it as well.' Grey explained to Void in detail.

'Oh wow, you really don't mind taking extra effort just to get what you want.' Void was a little flabbergasted by Grey's diligence.

'I'm a curious person. Even though I don't plan on using corpse puppets to fight, I still need to learn how to disable them.' Grey shrugged.

The necromancer was won over after Grey's last act and hastily bowed, "My Lord, it's an honor to be in your presence."

Grey nodded, acting as casual as he could be, "Rise."

The necromancer stood straight, nervous to be in the presence of Grey, "Is there anything I can help you with, My Lord?

Grey knew asking about the mark would give him away, so he didn't try to ask about it, "Nothing, for now."

The necromancer was a little despondent when he heard this. He was in high spirits, waiting to serve Grey with all his heart, but Grey didn't give him any tasks.

'I still don't know much about necromancers, maybe he could fill me in.' He thought to himself.

"How are things in this Continent?" Grey asked after some time.

'I knew it, he's a genius so he doesn't know much about this place.' The necromancer confirmed his guess and quickly started to brief Grey in on everything he knew.

Grey listened attentively, not that he didn't know some of the things the necromancer was speaking of, but because there were a lot he had no idea of. The most important thing was that the seal was weakening.
