OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

Outside the City of Water, Aelakaze, a massive portal appeared. A large number of undead and necrotic creatures emerged from the portals, with the lowest-level skeleton soldiers being around level 10.

The originally bright night sky gradually became covered by dark clouds.

Inside the lord's keep in the City of Water, a woman suddenly woke up.

"There's the aura of undead!" As the guardian of the City of Water, she was very sensitive to the presence of undead creatures.

Aixushina quickly put on her clothes and called the guards to inform all soldiers to assemble.

"The aura of a large number of undead, could it be Zurrernorn Cult?" Aixushina put on her robe and took her staff, making her way to the city wall.

"Miko Princess, all the soldiers have assembled. We don't know what's happening." A heavily armored general walked up to Aixushina and spoke.

"My divination magic has sensed a large number of undead creatures gathering outside the city, approximately around 10,000."

"Where could so many of these creatures have come from?" Klaner asked, puzzled.

"I don't know either. We must prepare fully for defense."

"Please rest assured, Princess. The 30,000 guards of Aelakaze will surely annihilate this undead army."

"I've already sent scouts to investigate. It shouldn't be long before they bring back intelligence."

On top of a building in the city, a figure cloaked in gray looked at Aixushina.

"So that's the Miko Princess? Her wise crown is really beautiful. Hehe!" Her figure vanished into the darkness.

........

A few light cavalrymen outside the city were riding their horses and talking.

"How could an undead army appear near Aelakaze? As we all know, seeing even one undead around here in a year is rare. Would Aixushina's perception really be wrong?"

"We should address her as Miko Princess, but what you're saying is right. It doesn't look like there are any undead here."

The speaker suddenly felt something was off. Turning around, he noticed that the area, which had been empty moments before, was now surrounded by many skeleton cavalry.

"What is this!?"

A massacre began. The scouts were outnumbered, surrounded by the skeleton cavalry, and they couldn't escape the encirclement.

"Commander, we've found human scouts. What should we do?"

A necromancer appeared in front of the knight and spoke.

"Annihilate all the scouts. Vice Commander, please disguise yourself as one of the scouts and head to the City of Water to provide false information."

"Hmph! Understood, Commander."

The servant reluctantly accepted the order. Originally the team leader, he was now relegated to deputy, and this switch made him quite unhappy.

The servant set off towards Aelakaze, casually finding the corpse of a scout along the way and disguising himself as that person. He then headed to Aelakaze.

On the city wall, Aixushina furrowed her brow. Of the five scout teams she had sent, a total of 37 men, only one had returned. The others were missing.

"What on earth happened? Why is only you back?" Aixushina asked the only returning scout.

The scout gave a strange smile. "At 4 a.m., the undead army will launch their attack. All that awaits you is annihilation."

"You bastard, what do you mean by that?" Klaner scolded angrily.

"What do I mean?"

The scout pulled out a bayonet and stabbed Klaner directly.

Klaner didn't react in time and was stabbed, feeling a sharp chill. Fortunately, the strike was not aimed at his heart.

At this moment, the scout transformed into the appearance of the servant, a pale-skinned vampire.

"Holy Light!" Aixushina cast a magic spell at the servant, but he easily dodged it.

"Wait for your death!"

The servant left these words behind and walked away.

"Holy Heal!" Aixushina cast a healing spell on Klaner.

"What a powerful vampire. If he had truly wanted to take our lives, we both might have died right here."

"Where on earth did these monsters come from?"

"I've already called for help from the Archbishop. Reinforcements should be here soon."

The servant returned to the undead army's location and reported the situation to the knight.

"The disguise failed. They figured out something was wrong with me."

"Alright." The knight said lightly.

The knight had originally want to use him to delivering information. Although he was the commander, his heart still longed for the Slane Theocracy.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was time for the attack.

At this moment, Peroroncino was playing cards with Shalltear when suddenly her watch rang, and the sound was that of Bukubukuchagama.

"It's time. Let me see just how strong this religious country is!"

Peroroncino took out a stack of scrolls.

"Information Camouflage"

"Counter-Surveillance"

"Holographic Surveillance"

"False Guidance"

...

After using several scrolls, a display appeared.

On the city walls of Airakaze, the soldiers were on high alert.

"Discovered, huh? But it doesn't matter. Let's see how long you can destroy these cannon fodder!"

"Advance, all units!" The knight commanded among the undead.

One could see skeleton soldiers holding swords and shields, advancing in formation to cover other skeletons. Many skeletons carried newly made siege ladders, running quickly through the crowd.

The hidden skills of the knight's general profession were now in play, allowing the skeleton soldiers to fully cooperate with his commands.

"This! Is this an undead army that is so well-trained?"

"Fire the arrows!"

Arrows rained down from the city walls.

But the soldiers' arrows had minimal effect on the skeletons.

As the skeletons neared the city gates, a large number of undead beasts suddenly charged out from behind the undead army. The skeletons cleared a path for them, and they rushed directly towards the city gates.

"Holy Light!" Aixushina cast a 6th-tier magic.

A beam of holy light descended, wiping out a large group of undead beasts near the gates.

At this moment, siege ladders were set up against the city walls, and the skeletons climbed up to fight the soldiers on the walls.

"Boom!" Several fireballs flew towards Aixushina's position from within the undead army.

Aixushina's staff glowed, and her white crown also shone brightly. The fireballs were all blocked in front of her.

"Low-level magic negation?" Perorochino watched the scene with interest.

"Seems so weak!"

As the soldiers and skeletons battled fiercely, a beam of light suddenly illuminated the city wall. An elderly man and a uniquely dressed young girl appeared.

The girl had hair that was half black and half white, with one black eye and one gray-white eye. She wielded a black-and-white war spear and charged directly into the undead army, swinging her weapon, causing large groups of skeletons to fall.

She was the strongest warrior of the Slane Theocracy—Zesshi Zetsumei.

The knight also noticed Zesshi Zetsumei. At this moment, a path was cleared in the undead army, and large numbers of skeleton cavalry charged towards Zesshi Zetsumei.

"Thousand Extermination"

Hundreds of skeleton cavalry were instantly destroyed by a powerful slash, turning into piles of bone fragments.

"You're my opponent!"

The knight approached Zesshi Zetsumei and spoke.

"A human in the undead army?"

The knight did not respond, continuing to attack Zesshi Zetsumei blindly.

"Slash"

"Clink!" Zesshi Zetsumei easily blocked the knight's attack.

"Only possessing strength and speed with no combat technique. Are you kidding me?"

The knight didn't speak, continuing to attack blindly.

"This armor doesn't deserve to be worn by you."

"Blood Blade"

Zesshi Zetsumei swung her war spear, and the knight's head was severed.

At the moment of the knight's death, all the undead froze for an instant, before mindlessly attacking the nearest person.

Meanwhile, Aixushina, who was using magic to attack the skeletons, suddenly felt someone watching her from behind. She turned around and saw a very comical grin looking at her.

"I'm taking this wise crown!"

With that, the figure swiftly tore the Wise Crown from Aixushina's head.

It was so fast that Aixushina couldn't react in time to stop it.

Immediately afterward, blood began to pour from her seven orifices, and she became completely delirious.

"Bastard!" Klaner attempted to retrieve the Wise Crown, but his heart was pierced with a fatal blow.

The entire process, from start to finish, took no more than five seconds.

Clementine, holding the Wise Crown, left swiftly. Neither Zesshi Zetsumei nor the elderly man noticed her presence.

Soon, the undead army was completely annihilated.

Watching the battle unfold, Perorochino could only think:

"So weak, too weak."

"Slane Theocracy is really weak!"
