—Elf Princess’s POV—
“Yes, I’m aiming to make an empire rather than just a small kingdom, I’m thinking of making an empire consist of the kingdom of elf, orcs, goblins, dwarves, beastmens, and all of the other races. I would be grateful if the noble elves want to help me achieve my aims. So? Will you accept my offer?” Said the man who introduced himself as the king of the goblins and orcs.
Just by saying that sentence, the heavy pressure we felt before vanished as if there is not there since the beginning. When he appeared with the cold expression, it’s as if I could saw a shadow of a dragon behind him. Huge, and terrifying.
His demeanor befitting the domineering demeanor of a ruler. Just by his presence, he boosts the morals of all of the soldiers present. Anyone could see the deep trust the soldiers have to their king.
But there is only one thing confuses me.
How could a human, became the king of both goblins and orcs.
Setting aside all of that, I need to think about whether I should accept the offer or not.
Asking for troops just seems to be too shameless, and it will ruin my dignity, and they will not accept that answer too.
Being under their rule seems to be the safest choice, seeing that their village didn’t get damaged by the assault of the demons proves their great military prowess.
But accepting to be under the rule of a human that we didn’t know whether he’s befitted to be our ruler.
“Hm? I wonder what answer will the princess of the noble elves gave me?” He asked for the second time with the same smile.
Looking at his smile makes my heart flutter for a second, his face looks young, but I wonder why does that smile of his would make someone 500 years old like me flutter.
“I-I accept your generous offer,” Answer me while bowing deeply to the king.
“I’m grateful to hear your answer, ah! I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Ren, the king of the Tarot kingdom.” Said him with another smile.
“Y-yes, the honor is mine, your majesty,” Said me with a bow.

—Third-person POV—
The answer that the elf princess gave, pleases Oz. Oz ordered the soldiers to go back to their posts and ordered Brad and Gurolf to escort the elves back to their village and to guard them until they immigrate to the Tarot kingdom.
“So, why do you gather us here, your majesty?” Asked Aegir.
Right after the elves went back to their village escorted by both the hunter corps and the magician corps, Oz assembles the committee at the usual place, Aegir’s house.
“Can’t you call me Ren like before? Hearing you call me your majesty makes me shivers, Aegir,” Said Oz, disturbed.
“We need to practice so we won’t make a slip of tongue in front of the others, so just get to the point, I knew you didn’t have that much time.” (Aegir)
“How considerate of you, Aegir. Well, the reason for me gathering all of you here, is to explain my plans for the future.” (Oz)
“My goal didn’t end in only building a mere kingdom. If we’re going to build a kingdom, why don’t we aim to be an empire too? We’ll make a goblin kingdom, elves kingdom, orcs kingdom, beastmens kingdom, and other kingdoms that ruled by one empire.” (Oz)
“So we need some of us to go and ask villages and tribes near us to join us. But for now, let’s just focus on gathering orcs and goblins. I’ll assign Fedra and Magra in this assignment, gather all of the orcs and goblins nearby, and even if you find the other races, invite them too, what we need the most currently is number, so lets us strive together.” (Oz)
“Enlarge our place, let’s expand our kingdom to the south, wipe all of the wild beasts and invite the ones that could we negotiate. I’ll assign this to Aegir, you’ll be expanding our kingdom, let’s make this place as our capital, and don’t forget to increase the defense. I’ll give some blueprints of the things that we should build again here when I’m back, I’ll be back in three days,” Explains Oz.
“You could leave this to us, Ren,” Said Aegir.
*Sound of Griffin’s roar*
“I know I could trust you guys, I’ll be going now, my ride had arrived,” Bragged Oz.
Oz ran and jumped to the griffin, the griffin immediately fly when Oz landed on his back.
“Damn, since when does he tame a griffin, he must be doing great out there, I wonder if he could give me one too,” Ibra said while imagining himself riding a griffin.
“Stop daydreaming you idiot,” Mocks Fedra.
********************************
Oz arrived at the orphanage when everyone has already slept. Seeing all of them had fallen asleep, Oz who couldn’t sleep go back to the forest to test some things he hasn’t tested yet.
“Grimoire of death….”
*Pooof!*
The card suddenly appeared in front of Oz, making Oz reflectively caught it.
[Grimoire of Death (Special) (Develops)
Description: A card comprises the grimoire of death skill. the user could summon a grimoire of death by using the card, every spells and skill written inside the grimoire could be used by the user. Grimoire spells could be obtained by either learning or stealing it from other grimoires]
(Shared or stolen?)
“Grimoire of death card, activate!”
*Poooof!*
A thick and black grimoire appeared from a thin air in front of Oz. Strangely, the book’s cover and pages are thick blacks and the book is floating in the air on its own.
Oz caught and opens the book and found that there are only three pages filled, and the rest of the grimoire is blank. Oz searches all of the pages other than the first three pages but found nothing.
(Does this mean that I need to steal to obtain the death spells? Well, let’s see what the first three spells are)
-Summon Undead
Summons an undead by using the death mana obtained from the death.
-Speak With Death
Speak with the entity of death
-Circle of Death
Surround yourself with a sphere made by a death aura, any living creature who couldn’t withstand the aura will lose their lives.
(Damn cool!!! Let’s try the summon undead spell!)
“Summon undead!”
A magic formation suddenly appeared in front of Oz, and a huge amount of mana was taken from Oz and formed a pitch-black sphere on top of the magic formation.
The sphere keeps on growing by eating Oz’s mana. but Oz had an infinite amount of mana so he didn’t felt anything when his mana was being absorbed by the pitch-black sphere.
The sphere stopped growing until its height grew about 8 meters.
*Whooooosh*
The pitch-black sphere suddenly vanished to the nothingness, leaving behind a figure with a jet black armor that in a kneeling position with his black sword as his support. Oz steps closer and saw that the figure is a skeleton with a pitch-black bone.
“Appraisal card” Oz whispered.
[Type: Skeleton [Duke]

Strength: 2.000.000
Agility: 1000.000
Vitality: 20.000.000
Mana: 5000.000

(Damn! What the hell with these crazy numbers!?)
(Wait…)
(Doesn’t he… Look like someone who’s just gone through a great battle?)
As Oz observes the skeletal figure more carefully, he saw that the armor it was using is worn out and a lot of sword marks could be seen on his armor.
!!??
Suddenly a red light shone inside the eye socket that has been empty before, making Oz surprised.
!!??
The skeleton duke jumps up and observes his surroundings until his eyes landed on the sitting Oz. He immediately draws his sword and took a fighting stance when he saw Oz’s presence.
“Who are you?”
“Where am I? Why am I here?” Asked the skeleton duke.
Hearing a voice came out from a tongueless skeleton makes Oz feels weird.
“You ask a lot of questions, huh, Mr. skeleton?”
“I’m the one who summoned you here, and you’re here because I summoned you. And this… This is the Ablux continent…” Explained Oz.
The skeleton duke froze for a second, seems to be processing the information he just heard from Oz.
“Ablux continent… It means that this is not Gravendath… And the reason why I’m not dead… is because I got summoned by you…” Said the skeleton duke.
Oz observes every reaction the skeleton duke gives. The skeleton duke pauses a while after saying that sentence and suddenly dashed towards Oz at a terrifying speed.
*Crack!*
But when he’s just 1 meter left away from Oz, multiple chains gushed out from Oz’s black grimoire, strangling part of the skeleton duke’s body, making him couldn’t move any part of his body.
Even if the skeleton duke doesn’t get strangled by the grimoire chains, Oz had already prepared his golden cards to attack.
“Damn! So the grimoire had that function as well!” Said Oz, pleasantly surprised.
!!!???
Suddenly a great headache assaults Oz’s head making him lose his balance, Oz focuses his Qi to his head trying to suppress the pain, but he suddenly caught the sight of the skeleton duke, seeming to be having the same great headache.
Multiple scenes appear inside of Oz’s mind.
A place where mortals wouldn’t know it’s existence.
A place that is full of terrifying and powerful entities.
A place… Full of death…
