An Assistant to the Angel of Death
17

"That means we've found the reason why this war is happening. Mark Argyle was right, there was no prince Thura meaning they did not know the meaning of the border war this time. Their ambition is only to invade part of the mainland of the Kingdom of Greenbreez." Claude summed up the interesting thing from all his analyses.

"I didn't think of it. hehehe" Krud smiled evilly like a cruel demon. "Well, that means this war has its own meaning, but does the king know about this place?" Krud's face showed relief from feeling that he had solved a great mystery.

"I agree with your question, did the king of Greenbreeze kingdom find out about this? Seeing that he was now ignoring so many of his soldiers it seemed that he knew nothing of this land." Claude suspects that the king of Greenbreez himself did not know about this beautiful underworld.

"If you're done analyzing this war, we'd better check out that big door what's behind that door I'm still curious." Krud excitedly walked towards the large white door located in the middle of a beautiful green grass.

"Why don't you flap your wings to go there?" Claude was very astonished to see Krud who lately used his human form more often than his original form.

"Hahahaha, I'm actually on leave so I just delivered the death papers yesterday." Krud walked leisurely in front of Claude. "By the way, in this human body I can't use my pure power at all. I can only use ordinary level magic. So you're climbing this well yourself when it's done." Krud was running around like a child.

"Oi, is the leader of the angels not wrong to make you an archangel? You just need to pull me with a piece of rope that I'm carrying! No need to use magic!" Claude was amazed by Krud's often fickle behavior, what it was because he was young among angels like him, according to Claude's opinion in his brain.

Claude ran after Krud who seemed to be very far from his distance now. Claude smiled happily, now he was finally not lonely anymore and did not suffer anymore. The life he so desperately longed for seemed to have materialized today.

"I got to first!" Shouted Krud who looked like a child doing his stupid competitions.

"You look like Krud's little boy!" Claude complained about Krud's nature. Because according to his mind, Krud is very unsuitable to act like a child with the aura of death and sharp eyes like eagle eyes that see prey.

"Not many comments! Let's open the door!" Krud was impatient with the door that just stood upright without any walls around it. Krud repeatedly circled the door but it was clear it was just standing straight without hinges.

"It! Krud you better fly and read the words that are above that door!" Claude showed me a word that shone like it was made of magic.

"You're telling me?"

"of course! I can't see it!"

"Alright, for the sake of erasing my curiosity for life. I'm willing to read the sentence on this door." Shouted Krud while using his magic to fly. "Listen carefully I yell yes!" Krud reminded Claude to listen to his words, although vague because they were in the open field but Claude could still hear clearly what Krud said.

"It looks like this was a hideout given by the god to the previous King of Greenbreeze." Claude summed up some of the sentences read by Krud.

"Nonsense, let's try to open the door!" Because I can't wait anymore. Krud opened the door just like that, but not something they expected suddenly came out a lot of water that hit them like a big tsunami.

"Hey, what are you doing!" Claude scolded Krud who acted as if to open the door without telling Claude first.

Those who had run for a while was not enough time to avoid the tsunami that hit it. Until finally they were swayed by a large water discharge. To make them drown in it.

Claude put himself who had already drowned in the flow of water so heavy. For a moment he remembered the times he lived in the residence of Baron Marquez, then met with Krud and Unexpectedly he managed to defeat a high-level black magician like Espen.

Krud changed the life of Claude. Even he felt no longer lonely, even when Krud left him Claude was disappointed because he had to try to survive alone in the forest near the border that was going on war.

Every day Claude studied and made his weapons to survive. Because without magic is the greatest weakness that occurs in this world.

Claude was right drifting in his thoughts in the past as he drowned in that water. He saw a speck of light but his consciousness began to decline. He saw a flashback of himself meeting the royal soldiers for the first time, reuniting with Krud after a long time.

Knowing that he is a demon god curse. Making a pact with the gods through Krud's intermediary. Claude was crying but his tears soon melted with the water.

Claude smiled he did not regret if he had to die with his happy state now. He was very grateful to know the angel of death as well as Krud.

Ting...

At that moment his mind remembered that Krud was an angel of death, if he was going to die should his death certificate have come down a few days ago. Whether this was an unexpected event. Claude swam to the surface, but it didn't appear that everything was dark.

Remembering himself a demon he was about to try to use his power, but he did not know how he was able to bring out his power. Claude recalled that when the witch cast so much magic, she was really angry when the witch hurt Krud's shoulder.

but this time he had no trigger to unleash his power. He remembered his mother's pendant, if this water was a magic then everything he could absorb with just one. He tried repeatedly but did not succeed, it turns out the water is very real and open a magic.
