Chapter 422: Raven Pavilion Demonic Domain and Grave Domain
This is a tomb.
Matthew was a little nervous.
He lowered his head and looked at the coffin. For some reason, he could actually see the situation inside through the coffin.
The dead man in the coffin also turned his head and looked at Matthew.
The two of them looked at each other for a while. Then, they asked in surprise at the same time,
Can you see me?
The person in the coffin was wearing luxurious clothes. His physical condition was close to that of a zombie, but he was also different from a zombie.
He had obviously retained a lot of moisture and looked more like a living person, but Matthew was sure that he was a corpse.
Looking at him, Matthew felt a little scared for some reason!
He asked groggily, Why are you here!
The dead man was stunned.
This is my coffin and tomb. I should be the one asking you that. Why did you barge into my coffin?
After being asked this question.
Matthew sobered up a little.
He looked around blankly and muttered to himself,
Yeah, why am I here? Wasnt I making tombstones?
Brother Dead Man looked at him and suddenly said sympathetically,
Youre probably dead too.
Matthew immediately retorted,
Im definitely not dead!
The dead man consoled,
Dead people dont believe that theyre dead. I didnt believe it either. Dont worry. The dead are much more comfortable than the living. Look at me. I sleep in a coffin every day. Where can I find such a good life? As a dead person, we only need to lie flat every day and not be pulled up by those damn necromancers.
By the way, young man, what do you do?
Matthew answered honestly,
Im a necromancer.
Dead Man fell silent.
Matthew could feel the other party trembling in the coffin.
Can you let me go?
The dead man asked.
Matthew shook his head and said, I dont plan to do anything to you.
The dead man asked again,
Then, can you let go of my coffin?
Matthew was puzzled.
Why do you ask?
The dead man explained,
As far as I know, necromancers have always been very poor. When they pass by the tomb, they will definitely plunder everything. Even if they cant lift the corpse, they will at least take a few pieces of the coffin and leave. I am not being prejudiced, right? Matthew sighed.
Im indeed not rich.
But dont worry, I definitely wont take your things.
Brother Dead Man beamed with joy.
Thats good, thats good.
This coffin of mine is quite expensive. I dont know how many years its been lying in it, but its still quite comfortable. By the way, is the world better now?
Matthew muttered,
Im afraid it depends on your definition. Which era are you from?
The dead man said happily,
I cant tell which era it was. When I was alive, the glory of the gods bathed the entire Aindor.
Although there were living sacrifices and exploitation everywhere, the gods claimed that it was an era of great grace.
If they said so, then so be it. The Gods have no shame anyway.
Speaking of which, do you know how cruel a living sacrifice is?
They would throw the living into the water, into the fire, or put them on the chopping board and cut open their stomachs.
This wasnt something a human could do.
But in our era, almost every god would instigate their believers to do so.
What was even more disgusting was that they had to pretend to be bright and mighty on the surface, claiming that the matter of living sacrifice had nothing to do with them and that it was an action initiated by the believers voluntarily.
In my world, being alive is not easy.
Fortunately, I died early to enjoy life.
Matthew looked around and asked curiously,
From the tomb and coffin, it is not difficult to see that you were either rich or noble when you were alive. Even if the gods are cruel, you should not have been chosen for a living sacrifice, right?
The dead man said calmly,
I died because I was sacrificed.
The area I live in believes in the God of Death.
At that time, the one chosen by Death to participate in the live sacrifice was the son of the Lord. Our Lord didnt want his son to die, so he pulled me over to take his place.
However, they did not know that this action had angered the God of Death.
He didnt want to accept me at all.
On the day of the sacrifice.
They first threw me into the river and found that I could walk on the river as if it was flat ground.
So they tied me up and roasted me with fire, but the fire couldnt hurt me.
When they saw this, they quickly claimed that I was a demon and finally pushed me onto the chopping board to cut open my stomach.
But I still wouldnt die.
At that time, the Death was right beside me, sneering at those comical devout believers.
I know this couldnt go on. So I begged Death for a long time.
He was finally willing to let me die.
When the lord and the other believers saw that I was finally dead, they put my body back in this coffin and sent it to the Church of Death.
I dont know what happened after that.
When I was lying in the church.
Only the sound of the death knell and crows flying past could be heard.
Not long after.
The God of Death appeared in front of me.
He asked me if I hated the lords family when I was dragged over to replace someone else as a living sacrifice. My answer is, I hate them, but only a little.
Death was puzzled.
I told him that the feudal lords family treated me very well. They gave me a job and a mouthful of food. When my parents died, they were even willing to lend me money to bury them.
My health had never been good, and my work was also very ordinary, but the Lord did not fire me, and the Lords son also took good care of me.
If I were in any other territory or wilderness, I would have died ten thousand times over.
Therefore, I volunteered to replace him.
Death choked after hearing that.
He seemed to be very dissatisfied with this result. In a fit of anger, He locked me up here, saying that he wanted to punish me for my blasphemy.
After that, I never saw Death again.
He probably forgot about me.
What a pity.
If I can see him again, I must thank him properly.
It was He who gave me a peaceful space and allowed me to lie quietly for so long.
Lying down like this is really too comfortable!
Brother Dead Mans tone was filled with optimism.
After Matthew heard this, he felt that it was absurd and real.
How is the world of the living now? Are there still living sacrifices?
Brother Dead Man asked with concern.
Matthew shook his head and said,
The gods have been exiled, and the human mages have ruled everything. There are very few living sacrifices in the world, and most people have the chance to eat their fill.
Brother Dead Man said happily,
Thats really a good world! Did our human mages become the rulers of the world? It must be a fair and beautiful world.
Thats great. Why dont you pull me up to the surface?
I want to see the world now.
Matthew wanted to say something.
However, he felt a powerful force pulling him back.
He was familiar with that feeling.
In an instant.
He suddenly understood why he was here.
Matthew hurriedly asked,
Where is this place? Im referring to the specific location and coordinates!
Brother Dead Man replied,
This is the Crow Demonic Domain of the Netherworld. I should be in a part of the tombs. Whats wrong?
Matthew only felt that the force was getting stronger and stronger.
He used all his strength to ask,
Whats your name?
Brother Dead Man replied, Olorin, my name is Olorin. What about you? Necromancer.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Matthews figure disappeared into the tomb.
Alright then.
Then Ill sleep again.
Olorin muttered to himself.
The tomb fell silent again.
