A Fallen Knight-Lost art of Necromancy

--

In the other room 

The people were gathered around the table. Some of them were leaders and some were followers but the head of all of them was a strong, cunning and powerful woman, Vladella. Her viciousness had no limits and the purpose of this meeting was the exact definition of her cruelty.

"Let me get straight to the point. It's time to end the war. It's time to end this once and for all. And I expect everyone present here to give their all" Her authority level of discussion did not leave any room of refute. 

One of the leader of the small gang, excited about the war, slammed his fist on the table and said, "finally"

One leader of the other gang asked Vladella, "When?"

"On the full moon night"

She stood up and said, "that means after 15 days,  all these sacrifices and all the efforts we put into, would be worth it"

"After 15 days, Dark tribe members would attack the Reinstle Empire and declare the start of the new era. The strong Empire would now be taken down by your hands, by our hands". Her voice loud enough  echoed every corner of the room and the excitement and rush could be felt in their cheers. 

"The most powerful wizard of the era, Arthur, would be killed by us and the kingdom will be ours. We will start our new era, our new dynasty" one of them exclaimed.

"With the Soyle Empire's resources and our efforts Lord Arthur will not be a Lord anymore. Rather it would be a body buried deep in the ground which won't be fortunate enough to have a coffin or a grave on its own."

Everyone cheered about the fact that this all would come to an end. They were happy and excited about this. Their purpose will be achieved.

"I want everyone to start preparing for this. None small mistakes would be taken and the committed for the same would pay the price"  Everyone nodded their heads with determination. 

"Now leave"

While everyone left they didn't notice that a lone figure, in the dark, was observing everyone. She listened to everything and when they all left she came out of the dark and appeared before Vladella.

Vladella wasn't shocked when she found a figure standing behind her. She calmly turned around and looked at her eye to eye. Both the figures had a slight resemblance. They both were staring at each other as if trying to communicate with each other, when the door opened. 

Vladis  entered the room but  found another person was there, who looked slightly alike to his mother. He was shocked with the resemblance as well as the difference between them.

Vladella was calmed while the other two were shocked with each other's existence. She turned towards him and said, "Vladis, come and meet your aunt"

"She is my twin sister Vlasella"

"Vlasella meet my son Vladis"

"Is she for real?" He was shocked

Vladis looked at her mother and asked, "when did you have a twin sister?"

She scoffed and said, "I always had one. We have been living our lives separately but now we have finally reunited. Also she is here to help us and yes she is real but the one here" she pointed towards Vlasella. 

"She is just a holographic image of her"

Vladis gradually let the shock seeped in and then asked. "What help?

"She will help us to exact revenge against Arthur and will help us to kill him"

"And how is she going to do that?", Vladis aked while crossing his hands on his chest.

He knows Vladella very well. She doesn't do anything for free. Everything has a price or cost that is to be paid. So definitely her sister also had some. He can't believe the fact that a person like Vladella has a kind sister who can help take Arthur down. She must also be some insanely dangerous person like her.

"We will perform a ceremony"

"Ceremony?"Vladis wasn't aware of any ceremony. 

"In this ceremony, blue crystal which was divided into two among Camy and Ceil will be taken out from their bodies to complete the purpose"

Vladis didn't say anything and waited to let her continue.

"When this ceremony will be performed the last witch queen will be revived"

Vladis thought, if this ceremony is performed that means Ceil and Camy both have to die because the blue moon blessing was divided between them. His thoughts were full of worry for Camy. He knew that he shouldn't be selfish by only thinking about Camy but he couldn't help it. For him Camy was more important than anything.

"What about Camy"

"To perform the ceremony, sacrifice is a must or else ceremony will be considered incomplete"

Vladis clenched his teeth. "So you are going to sacrifice Camy and still have the audacity to ask help from me?"

"No. The sacrifice would be of Ceil's not Camy" she laughed as she spoke.

Vladis didn't believe her. A moment ago she said  that they would dig the blue crystal out from their bodies, then how is Camy going to be not the dead one.

How can he be sure of that?

He waited patiently to listen to everything.

"Since Camy is now a vampire, her curse will be uplifted, the moment she dies and will turn her into human again. The sacrifice would be Ceil only"

Vladis still felt that something was suspicious about it, but the fact that Camy can turn into a human again made him happy as well as hesitate, that made him ignore the suspicious thoughts. He believed that if anything goes wrong he can handle it and should anything goes wrong, he will make sure that Vladella pays for it, despite their relationship.

Vladella could see some doubts in her son's mind but she knew that he would trust her eventually,  for Camy at the least. 

"Trust me Vladis. I am your mother and I ask for your help. I am not only doing this for me,  rather it's for both of us. Now I want you to go and make the preparations."

Vladis wanted to refute but chose to remain silent and left the room leaving both the sisters alone.
