After coming out of the multi-dinsional cube, Klaus and Queenie stayed on the small mountain peak. It was his way of spending a couple of hours with Queenie.
So they remained there until sunset. They enjoyed the sunset together, sothing they bonded over when they first t at the Stone Valley. It was a casual mont they both enjoyed.
Afterwards, they planned to go back to the outpost. Asha’s shadows hadn’t returned yet, but she had already received so word from them, so she was waiting for a more concrete report.
Nonetheless, Klaus and Queenie wanted to go back and spend the night with everyone.
However, before Klaus and Queenie could leave the mountain, Klaus’s senses picked up a figure approaching the outpost.
"They ca faster than I expected," Klaus said. Queenie nodded. She also sensed the figure coming toward the outpost.
So they chose to et Lin, the zombie lady sent by the zombie queen.
"You do know we can attack you now that we are not allies with your kind," Klaus said, causing Lin to stop and turn to her right. She wasn’t wearing a mask today, but her head was covered with a red hood.
"I don’t think you will do that," Lin said, and Klaus chuckled.
"Why are you here... better make it fast since we don’t have much ti to spare," Queenie said in a tone showing she wasn’t pleased with the visit.
Initially, she was sad that the alliance with the Zombies was no more, but now, after seeing the 47 beasts Klaus had given his blood to, she knew the chances of them having their first Tier 12 existence were high.
So she didn’t have much interest in the zombies. However, having them would increase the chances of having more Tier 12 warriors.
But aside from that, she understood why Klaus hadn’t acted all polite when they went there. Klaus just wanted to make them need him.
Now, when they negotiate, the chances of getting what they want—and then so—would be easier.
"My queen sent ," Lin said, noting the shift in Queenie’s tone. She had known her for a long ti, so she knew she was angry about being sent away, just like their queen had been.
"But before that, I will apologize for the behavior my queen exhibited when you visited... She is just frustrated over many things, so she lashes out at you."
Klaus and Queenie didn’t care much, so they just nodded. "Now, care to tell us why you are here... why your queen sent you?"
Lin nodded. "First, like I said, she is sorry for what she did. Second, she wants to invite you back to the Vampire City to have a sit-down and talk things out.
I know it may sound funny, considering we were the ones who sent you away, but this ti, we are the ones inviting you, so please don’t turn us down.
Third, my queen wants you to bring the one called War Goddess Miriam on your next visit... She believes that with her attendance, we can have a good talk..."
Klaus and Queenie looked at each other and then asked, "Why ask for Miriam?"
"I honestly don’t know, but she seems to want her there, so please, if you accept to co, bring her," Lin said, and Klaus nodded.
"To be frank with you... If you hadn’t co today, we wouldn’t have co. Perhaps the next ti you see us, we will have co to attack your city and eradicate your race, like we will be doing with the Savage zombies tomorrow.
But since you ca to apologise, we will co a day after tomorrow and tell your queen we will bring War Goddess Miriam. All we ask is that she doesn’t try anything funny."
Klaus smiled, causing Lin to feel a chill run down her spine. "Trust , she wouldn’t want to try anything funny."
Lin smiled under her hood. "I will be sure to tell her that."
"Good..." Klaus smiled.
"Also, my queen said I should tell you to be careful when you face the Savage king. He is just like her, also a Tier 2 existence, but at level 1, and his abilities are bizarre, so be careful around him."
"Well, I will take that into consideration," Klaus replied, having already suspected that. Lin sighed, then turned and left.
She had already completed what she ca there to do, so she left, leaving only Klaus and Queenie to ponder her last sentence.
"Looks like it will be chaotic tomorrow," Queenie said, and Klaus nodded.
"Don’t worry about him. I will handle him so you can focus on the Void stage zombies and the rest..." Queenie nodded. She trusted Klaus enough to know he wouldn’t say sothing he couldn’t do.
"But why do you think the Zombie Queen wanted Miriam the next ti we visit?" Queenie asked.
"I can’t say I have any idea... I will ask Miriam when we go back, but regardless of her intention, we will go see her again after taking care of the Savage zombies."
"She can at least co to us instead," Queenie smirked, and Klaus chuckled.
They soon returned to the Outpost.
anwhile, Lin returned to Vampire City and went to report to her queen.
"How did it go, Lin?" The zombie queen asked.
"They accepted our invitation and promised to bring the one nad Miriam. However, that will be in two days because, like you suspected, they are here for the Savage zombies."
"Did you tell them about the strength level of the Savage King?" The zombie queen asked, and Lin nodded.
"I did."
"And what was their response?"
"They seem okay with it... especially the one nad Klaus Hanson. He is just a Level four Transcendent, but he scares . However, they don’t seem on edge, so I think they have what it takes to handle him."
The zombie queen smiled. Not that she hadn’t suspected Lin would say sothing like that after eting the brat. Klaus looks handso and all, but low-key, he is scary.
"Good job, Lin. Now, we wait for them to handle their business and then co to visit... If things go well, we will get what we have been working towards all these years."
Lin stayed for a few minutes before she left.
The queen sat there for a few more minutes before she also left. Though she didn’t want to do it, she had to see why Klaus and his team were confident they could take down an entire zombie kingdom, numbering in the thousands.
In case they were not aware, the Savage zombies fight like their na.
