413 Side Chapter; The Fallen Hero and the Wicked Witch

In a dark and gloomy workshop, filled with flasks, cauldrons with strange liquids, corpse pieces handling around, and countless different artifacts of all shapes and sizes scattered all over… a mischievously beautiful woman glanced at the boiling and colorful liquids inside a cauldron.

Controlling and shaping her magic to resemble dark tentacles and hands, she moved the strange and foul-smelling liquids around, the substances, which seemed slimy and disgusting, twisted around as she kept adding more ingredients.

"Yes… Yes… almost there, my dear~! Just wait a bit longer… the concoction shall be ready in a few seconds~ Fufufu" laughed the woman… her skin seemed pale blue, and her eyes were scarlet red, while the white area was completely dark.

She was wearing a gothic-themed black leotard, alongside a series of other lewd and revealing clothes, with a large witch cap at the top of her head. Her long and purplish hair waved as the disgusting smells filled the room, her entire presence was eerie and disturbing. She had long and pointed ears and long fangs. Her face was filled with certain and playful malice… her smile was accompanied both with her dangerous beauty and such malice.

"Ana… Anabella… Anabella… Anabella…" muttered the voice of a young man. His voice seemed dry and harsh as if gasping for air with each word, it seemed difficult for him to even talk.

"I know you're waiting for it~ But just wait a bit more, my dear~! Kyah~! Don't be touchy! Not here, fufufu~" said the demon woman… Anabella.

The man that was beside her was a beautiful youth… seemingly in his early twenties, with long and discolored orange hair, lifeless crimson eyes, and pale gray skin, filled with stitches. His clothes seemed to be made out of several high-class materials, having a gothic-theme to it similar to the demoness.

His complexion seemed strong and mildly muscular, but those muscles were tightened and flexible as well.

But it was clear as water that this man was not alive. He was an Undead, a reanimated corpse made by Dark Arts, Phantom Magic, or Soul Attribute Magic.

The mischievous lady seemed well versed in witchery, alchemy, and Dark Arts Magic. She hastily created a concoction for her 'beloved', who was currently grasping her butt cheeks voraciously.

"There you go~ Sol-sama… my dear hero of the sun…" said the Anabella, as she took a large flask and filled it with the bright green substance that she was creating, giving it to her 'beloved'.

The zombie… who she named 'Sol', took on the flask and drank its contents.

"Anabella…! Ana… Uagh! Buuguaaahh…!"

"Fufufu, it is working my dear! If all conditions are fulfilled… you should be able to evolve in no time! Here, please take this one as well!" she said, taking a different flask containing a red liquid and throwing it over her 'beloved'.

Splash!

"M-My dear?! What did you just say?! G-Geraldine?! Why are you suddenly naming such a disgusting woman as her! She has been dead for hundreds of years now, forget about her! You only have me in your life! No one else! You do not need anyone else! Did you heard me, MY BELOVED?!" shouted Anabella, manipulating the dark magic tentacles to slap her 'beloved' until it stopped shrieking, its body then glowed in a strange and eerie light as it underwent some changes.

Its musculature became stronger and bulkier. Its left hand suddenly transformed into a sharp skeleton claw and its chest showed its ribs which evolved into sharp blades. Instead of a hearing, there was a glowing crimson orb blazing with a bluish wisp.

Its right eye became bluish as well, releasing these same flames… its agonizing shrieks stopped as it stood up.

"My beloved… Anabella… I am here… to serve you for eternity…" it said.

"That's right! That is right, my beloved Sol-sama! You and me! No one else needs to be in the way of our eternal love! Fufufu! It is a success! A success! Sol-sama has evolved into an Infernal Fallen Mythic Hero! His power had increased exponentially, and he can even talk properly now! My experiments had finally come to fruition! After so long… after so long! Fufufu! I will show you to the Thanatos Kingdom, all those who doubted our love shall receive a good dose of punishment!"

"Yes… Anabella, my love… I will always serve you, at your side… forever…" muttered the man.

Sol… three hundred years ago, he was the Hero of Sun of the Athetosea Kingdom. He was one of the heroes that participated in the sealing of the Wyvern Overlord and the eradication of the Monster Kingdom that it had created inside the Grand Forest.

He was also a companion of Geraldine, Amiphossia's servant. Both Sol and Geraldine once held a great bond with each other, as they grew up together in the Athetosea Kingdom.

Geraldine was a nice girl, something very rare in a royal family filled with spoiled brats, and Sol was a noble's son, the two naturally meet each other in one of their parent's meetings and created bonds that lasted for the rest of their lives… or that's what Geraldine back then would have liked.

But as Sol awakened his title as Hero and then Legendary Hero, while Geraldine became her Legendary Party Member… other members began to show up. A hero has many companions, and Sol was not the exception.

Anabella Down was one of them, a witch of the Athetosea Kingdom that had lived for many years, far more than Sol and Geraldine, she had awakened her Epic skill and became the 'Phantom Dark Witch' of Sol's party.

Sol was a clueless fool, he never understood Anabella's real motives. She was deeply in love with him… but far from real love, it was obsessive and possessive love. Anabella desired Sol more than anything or anyone and did not want the rest of his party members to even interfere.

And because all of Sol's party members were woman, she was jealous and envious of every single one of them. She plotted and schemed their destruction and deaths… and one by one, she succeeds.

Through many 'accidents', Sol lost every single one of his party members, Geraldine was only the first of them. She was killed by one of the Forsaken Labyrinth's bosses and then had her soul cursed and sealed inside the dungeon.

The other party members such as the 'Fierce Huntress of the Forest', 'Holy Priestess Warrior', and 'The Serene Lady of the Ocean'… all of them had suffered a similar fate. Every single death was inside a dungeon a by fighting a Boss, through Anabella's schemes, she became the only woman that Sol could glance and… love.

As she was a witch who used Dark Arts Magic and had great manipulation of the Dark, Shadow, and Phantom Attribute, she was capable of extending her life, surpassing human limited lifespan, but she was once accused of being a demon and was exiled from the Kingdom.

Not before setting several Noble houses on fire while manipulating Sol with her words and magic. Afterward, she migrated to the Thanatos Kingdom and became a citizen after her transformation had completely turned her into a demon.

Because she experimented with concoctions and her own body to rejuvenate it, she slowly turned herself into a powerful demoness, and Sol, who had been already brainwashed by her beforehand was turned into a Zombie when his lifespan ended.

She captured his soul and put it back into his body, converted it into a zombie, and feed it human flesh and blood, and as Sol kept developing as a zombie, he devoured the flesh of greater monsters and demons evolving stronger and becoming a useful soldier in Thanatos alongside Anabella.

The two showcased their worth and the Greedy Queen gave them the titles of 'honorary citizens'.

Not long after, Anabella's Epic Skill evolved due to its corruption, and she became the 'Phantom Witch Demoness Heroine of Moonlight' while the zombified Sol became the ???Relentless Undead Hero of the Dark Sun', not a true Hero but one of her 'Legendary Party Members'.

Things had suddenly become even more twisted as Anabella became a Heroine and Sol… her party member.

The World's Epic really had strange decisions… fate moved in ways that not even gods understood. The Demon Gods accepted the two as allies and added them to the Thanatos's Kingdom Heroes.

And now… after countless years, she had finally managed to make Sol evolve once again through her concoctions and magic, a feat that no one had ever accomplished. She wanted to show Sol to the Demon God priests and to the Greedy Queen, to showcase her incredible talent and to finally receive the title of 'Noble'.

She had grown incredibly twisted as a demoness and had planned bearing Sol's children, and slowly manipulate the Thanatos Kingdom so her children would one day succeed in the throne.

She had already made Sol evolve into a powerful undead, his body had become even stronger and filled with mana, she only needed to adjust some things and be impregnated by the devilish seed of her beloved hero.

However, things were not stopping there. Anabella had several other plans. She wanted to showcase her necromancy talents and be hired as the Kingdom's Court Witch. With such a high position, moving the strings would become even easier.

For that, Sol was not enough, she was about to use the corpses of Sol's fallen party members and reanimate them into Undead, use the special concoctions and evolve them into higher classes of Undead never seen before.

"I have the perfect ingredients for more puppets…"

Anabella walked towards large coffins that she had stored in her basement, opening them, and revealing its contents. Three, flawless corpses of the three fallen maidens. Anabella had used her Necromancy to maintain their corpses fresh, without rooting or decaying.

Of course, some pieces were stuck together because they were torn apart or destroyed into pieces. One of the maidens, the 'Holy Priestess Warrior', had her entire face munched by a monster, so Anabella had to stick each piece back together, and it was disfigured.

"Well, it is not like I would make you reveal your appearances, all of you will wear the Cursed Living Armor sets I've created… My fallen maidens~ Fufufu. It is a pity that Geraldine is not in here… but oh well."

Anabella had stored their souls inside a crystal ball specifically made for that purpose, their souls were weakened and twisting around, aimlessly… their memories must have been damaged since then, and they only resembled wailing specters.

Anabella infused her mana into the crystal ball through the Phantom Attribute Spell 'Phantomization', and the three souls shined in an eerie and dark light, their yellow colors turning completely dark.

She also conjured several incantations into the corpses and reanimated them with Dark Arts Spell 'Dead Flesh Reanimation', and then, she infused each soul into each corresponding corpse with the Phantom Attribute Spell 'Spectral Possession'.

Flash! Flash! Flash!

The corpses started to move, and the three beautiful maidens stood up, their colorful hair and eyes were discolored and grayish… their skin pale as candle wax.

"Master…"

"Anabella… Master Anabella…"

"We live to serve, our mistress… Master Anabella"

"Fufufu~! Good girls, such good girls need a nice reward~ Here! Feast to your heart's contents!" she shouted, opening her Item Box, and revealing countless human and demon corpses, who she had caught through the poor streets of the Thanatos Kingdom.

Such people that no one cared about were always her prey. She used their delicious flesh as nourishment for her 'children'.

"Now… as you devour your meal, glance as I mate with your once beloved hero! Sol, come to me… And do love to me as you've never done before!" shouted Anabella, as she sat down in a dark-colored bed, opening her legs wide, revealing her vagina, completely wet and steamy after having contained her urges for so long.

"Yes… my beloved… let us make love, for eternity," said Sol.

The two mated in front of the three maidens, as they ate flesh.

Anabella obtained the most of pleasures in making them look… those who she envied so much for their beauty and charisma, who she had so much jealously due to the bright personalities that always made Sol interested in them… they were now in the losing end, nothing but reanimated corpses with tainted souls. Even if there was something left in their minds from their past lives, it was being controlled by Anabella's magic.

They could only watch…

"Aah~ Ooh~ Sol-sama…! Harder, harder! Let us have hundreds of children!"

The ability to breed with Undead, reanimated corpses, was unheard of. But this was also one of Anabella's experiments. She was willing to mate with her 'beloved' and to use every concoction or spell until her womb could finally harbor new 'life'… or 'death'.
