I had recovered enough that I was able to walk on my own, but they had already prepared a wheelchair for just in case.
But I didn't use it in the end since I wanted to at least walk on my own two feet.
That was a mistake as walking up the walls really was hard on . When it was over, I was bent over and panting in an attempt to catch my breath.
After catching my breath, I looked out at the scene in front of .
Seeing this, I imdiately understood why Klein had revealed that awkward look.
That was because the undead horde wasn't doing a single thing.
From ti to ti, there might be one or two undead that seed to wander off, but the majority of the undead just seed to be standing there. It was as if they were standing there in a daze, without a single thought in their minds.
Though in the first place, it wasn't as if the undead would have any thoughts in their heads. They were the undead after all, they were supposed to be creatures that didn't have any intelligence or thought.
So it was normal that they would be like this.
Or it would be if they were in a place where there was no one around.
For them to be acting this way when they were this close to a place inhabited by humans, these creatures that actually wanted to take vitality of their own, it was strange for them to be standing around like this without attacking.
It really made it seem like there was sothing else that was keeping these undead in their place.
"Do you know what's happening?" Klein suddenly asked from beside .
I slowly shook my head as I kept my eyes on the undead.
Even with the knowledge that had been implanted in my head, I had no idea what was happening here.
Based on the knowledge that I had, this was certainly strange behaviour for these undead creatures.
After looking at them for a bit, I couldn't help revealing a strange look on my face.
That was because...I could feel so kind of connection with these undead that were standing there in front of the walls. These undead were supposed to be undead that were raised by the lich, so they shouldn't have anything to do with .
But it really felt like there was so kind of connection between and them...
I couldn't help pulling out the Orb of the Dead.
The mont that the Orb of the Dead ca out, all of the undead suddenly turned in the direction that I was standing in. Though they didn't look up at who was standing on the wall, they did look in the direction that I was standing in as if they were reacting to pulling out the Orb of the Dead.
Klein who was beside also saw this and he didn't hesitate to pull out his sword to stand right in front of .
Only, the undead didn't do anything even though they were looking in this direction.
After a while, it was as if they had suddenly lost interest in whatever they had been looking at before and turned back to seemingly stand there in a daze again.
Once Klein was certain that none of the undead were about to do anything, he turned to with a questioning gaze. The way that he looked at was as if he wouldn't let leave unless I gave him an answer to his doubts.
It was just that I didn't have any answers that I could give him since I had no idea what just happened either.
The mont that I pulled out the Orb of the Dead, it seed like there was this strange connection that was ford between and the undead.
Even now, it seed like I could connect to them as long as I used a bit of the energy from the Orb of the Dead. Though I had no idea why it was even acting this way...
After a mont of silence, I once again shook my head and said, "I have no idea...but I think that there's sothing that I can try."
"No." Klein said in a firm voice with a stern look on his face.
He even took a step forward as if he was about to grab the Orb of the Dead out of my hand, but I moved out of the way in ti to keep it from him.
Seeing that I did this, he knitted his brows and seed even more determined.
It was almost as if he wouldn't give up as long as he didn't take this orb out of my hand.
I knew that there was so kind of misunderstanding, so I put the Orb of the Dead on the ground in front of and said, "You can't touch it, the dark energy will corrode you if you make contact with it. That's why I moved it away."
Klein narrowed his eyes to look at and then the Orb of the Dead before slowly giving a nod.
But then he said, "We're heading back down. The wyverns will start clearing out the undead later and that'll be the end of it."
He ca forward as if he was about to lead down the wall, but I shook my head once more and said, "Wait, there's sothing that I want to try."
Klein had a very serious frown on his face when he heard this before shaking his head, "No, what if you provoke sothing that you can't handle. We can't let anything happen to you."
I calmly looked at him and took a deep breath before gathering my prestige to say, "I can guarantee that nothing will happen to . I can also guarantee that nothing will happen with the undead."
Klein knitted his brows even more when he heard this.
So to seal the deal, I just calmly said, "This is an order."
When he heard this, there was a slightly hurt look that was in Klein's eyes, but there was
nothing that he could say once I said this.
There were still our positions to consider, so he had to at least let give it a try.
But if anything were to happen, there was no doubt that he would step in.
I didn't mind as I picked up the Orb of the Dead and faced the undead horde.
