Together with Oz’s lich king clone, Gareth summons his servants from Gravendath the undead world.
Oz’s lich king clone managed to support Gareth by using its enormous mana, making the summoning became successful.
The tomb is not enough to maintain the enormous amount of Gareth’s servant, forcing Oz to expand the tomb another 5 levels underground with his nature magic.
“””Master…”””
Gareth’s servants kneeled and greet their master. Gareth’s duke ranked servants; Dullahan and Death knight stand at the front of other servants and kneels.
“Gyren… Cyran…” Gareth mumbled slowly as he observes his servants and his best friends at Gravendath.
“I’m Glad that all of you survive…” Told him.
“Yes, master… We followed your orders and hid at our secret base, we manage to deceive the enemies by sending a large number of foot soldiers to our main base. But may I know where exactly is this, master?” Asked Cyran the death knight.
“I’ve summoned you here together with my master, this is the Ablux continent,” Answered Gareth.
!!??
The statement that came out from their lord makes them surprised, but it makes them happy too at the same time.
“W-wait, your master?” Asked Gyren the dullahan.
“Yes, let me introduce him. This is Ren, my master, and it means that he is going to be your master too,” said Gareth.
“Y-you, you became a servant of a goblin, my lord!?” Asked Gyren the dullahan with a protesting tone.
“Are you doubting my decisions, Gyren?” Gareth asked him, and he gushed out his killing intent that had increased for hundreds of folds because of the rank up.
!!!???
The killing intent makes Gyren get back to the kneeling position and plead for forgiveness; “I’m sorry, my lord. I’ve crossed the line, it seems that you’re not taking leisure here and keep on increasing your strength. But why do you serve a mere goblin that known to be weak by all of us?”
“Hm? Weak?” Asked Oz with a deep voice.
That words annoyed Oz, making him emit his killing intent that’s stronger than Gareth for multiple folds. Oz had a lot of experiences, and even without the stats and stuff, Oz with his Qi alone could make any entity within the Duke rank nervous because of his murderous killing intent.
And now, he had the power from the goblin king, magic cards, and combined with his Qi and his immense experiences, he made Gyren the dullahan kneeling legs begin to sink into the ground because of the intense pressure.
Seeing that the dullahan couldn’t endure much longer, Oz retracted his killing intent and said, “I’m Oz. And since now on, you will be under my rule. I’ve promised to Gareth that I will give the undead some area to make your own undead kingdom, You’ll still be under Gareth’s command, but Gareth will be under my command. I promised I won’t misuse you, or any of you, so build your kingdom from a scratch, starting from making a necropolis in this place.”
“Gareth, I’ll be leaving the growth of the undead kingdom in your hands, you’re free to plunder only from the are that the demons controlled. Restrain yourselves from having a conflict with other races,” Commanded Oz.
Oz left the tomb together with the rest of the group, leaving Gareth inside to coordinate together with his new group. It will be the beginning of the undead kingdom, under the Tarot flag.
When Oz came out, it’s almost dawn, Oz withdrew his conscious back to his real body and take some real rest.
*Sigh*
“It’s been a while since I let my mind rest too, it seems that it is true, that not only body but your brain and heart also need a rest,” Mumbled Oz as he started to visit the dream realm.

Two months and a half passed.
Just a few more days, Oz will have to go to the capital to enroll at the magic academy.
The two months and a half passed so quickly, Oz rarely goes out of the orphanage, he spent his time playing and teaching the kids from morning until evening. As he spends his time a lot at the orphan, Oz and Elena got closer as well.
Elena started to became more open and had already removed his wariness towards Oz. She always reminded Oz when it’s already time for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Oz also taught Elena a lot of things, from swordsmanship to magic, Elena learns a lot from Oz, and she seems to have a talent at using a knife, making Oz doubt her whether she reincarnates from an assassin.
Oz refrain from coming out of the orphanage is not because he’s not interested, but because the kingdom had become tenser lately, the kingdom’s relationship with the rival kingdoms had become worst day by day, and the foreigner at the land started to make a ruckus in a lot of places.
Besides refraining himself from intervening, he also refrains from the kids to be interested to go outside, and to guard the orphanage because of old man Kyron that rarely went back to the orphanage.
Oz is ready if something big occurred at the kingdom, he’ll call his troops at the tarot kingdom and escort the orphans and Elena to Tarot to protect them.
In the evening, Oz will start to control his goblin king’s body to govern the kingdom. Oz will take a break for dinner and rest when it near dawn. Tarot had grown bigger in population. Fedra, Magra, and Azaline managed to invite a lot of people that eager to join our kingdom. Fedra and Magra got back to the kingdom a month after they got the orders. In the next month, they choose some goblins and orcs to go separate ways and find more people that are eager to join the kingdom.
Every end of the month, they will come back to the kingdom bringing people that want to join with the kingdom. In the second month, seeing a lot of goblins and orcs coming together peacefully seems to attract other races about what happened.
A pack of centaurs, kobolds, and gnolls asked permission to Oz to join the kingdom. The increase of races in the kingdom seems to encourage other races to join the kingdom too, making even the Lizardmens started to asked permission to join the kingdom too.
At first, they underestimate the kingdom when they heard that the kingdom is ruled by a human. But they couldn’t help but gasped when they saw the soldiers of the kingdom and Oz.
At the beginning of the third month, Aegir commanded to begin the construction of Oz’s palace, luckily Everdeen magic forest is very vast and magical, the undead under Gareth found some gold mines, iron mines, and other kinds of mines at his troops expedition on taking over the area controlled by the demons at the south of the Tarot kingdom.
With the iron mines, the elves helped the kingdom for making the weapons and the armors, even if they’re not as great as the dwarves, their blacksmithing is still great. With Oz’s guide, the kingdom had grown prosperous, food is essential if Oz wants to increase the population, so Oz guides the builders to make a huge farm and ranch for the kingdom, they farm some edible monsters and with the help of the elves, they manage to farm some edible plants.
The existence of the Tarot kingdom had spread wide to the whole Everdeen magical forest, as they knew that the undead troops that are taking over the area controlled by the demons are under the king of the Tarot kingdom, no entity at the forest is brave enough to assault a member of the Tarot kingdom.
The undead had built their grand necropolis successfully, and the area Oz gave them had been filled with skeletons, ghouls, wraiths, specters, and much more undead, surpassing 10 thousand in number. The area had filled with a dense death aura because of the enormous number of the undead. But the undead are is not as scary as its name, they don’t plunder and assault randomly, and its as if the skeletons had their own conscious, they walk and run their activities just like a normal human.
Gareth built a huge wall with black steel he got from the black steel mine that he found underneath the tomb before. Normal undead couldn’t talk, but they still behave like a normal person. It seems that only undead with a baron class above could have the ability to communicate.
Azaline had also done a great job in governing the elves, every elf village in the Everdeen magical forest had heard the news of the rising Tarot kingdom, some villages immediately rushes to join the kingdom when they heard that Azaline’s village had also joined the kingdom, but some elf villages refused to join the kingdom, thinking that it’s a disgrace to their elf pride to bow to a mere human.
Magra uses far extreme way from Fedra and others, he went to all of the orc clans, challenging every clan leader to fight with him and to join the Tarot kingdom if they lose. Magra had also ranked up to the [duke] rank, making his muscle that had always been big, got bigger than before.
Tarot kingdom current population:
-48,200 Goblins
-36,000 Orcs
-30,000 Elves
-10,000 Centaurs
-8,000 Lizardfolks
-9,000 Kobolds
-50,000 Undeads
Surpassing one hundred thousand in population.
Everdeen magical forest is very wide. If you go 124 miles to the south from the Grandaria kingdom, you’ll find the Tarot kingdom, nevertheless, even if you go another 1000 miles from the Tarot kingdom, you still won’t found the sign of an end of the forest.
Oz’s aim for Tarot is far more than just a kingdom, he is hoping that he could build an empire that would rule various races. He gave the southern part of the empire for the undead kingdom, but he also aims to make other kingdoms under the Tarot flag at the south too, that could be under the surveillance of the undead kingdom. the west is for the goblin, orc, and centaur kingdoms. The east is for the lizardfolk’s kingdom, and he is hoping that there would be some other beastmen kingdom and Dwarves kingdom at the east.
In the north, there will be the humans and elves kingdom. And the capital will be in the center of the empire, ruling all of the kingdoms from the center. Watching at the quick growth of the kingdom, Oz thought that his aim is not that far, and nothing could hinder the kingdom’s growth to an empire.
Oz got a report from Gareth that they met a dead end of the ‘taking control from the demons’ mission. There is a huge number of demons that are guarding the area, and there seem to be some high ranked demons guarding that area too, making them unable to continue their expansion.
Hearing the report, Oz gave his command, “Aegir, call everyone, even Geeta and Azaline. Time to pay the demons what we owe them.” Said him with an evil smile imprinted at his face.
