Skylar was surprised at how he has survived thus far

He has been fighting and battling for almost a day already, moving several tens of kilometers into the realm of the dead, and he seemed to be doing better than expected!

The simple reason was because he was controlling rats

There was a human saying that a rat was probably the mammal most likely to survive a nuclear catastrophe or a planet destroying meteor, and that was perhaps true

Not only did rats somehow find their way from Earth to Luminor, but when his original rats he called to fight for him on Luminor had all been wiped out, he found that there were rats breeding here in the Realm of the Dead too!

The rats here had mutated and were able to easily gnaw through bone and rocks making them extra useful against the undead 

Besides that, the way he was using them was different

When he controlled creatures in his missions with the Grey Wolves, he treated the creatures well and used them with respect even though they weren't his familiar

Here, he simply commanded them to attack and kill, without any supervision which saved his mana and made the rats charge in a frenzy

And with that simple command, they charged without any concern for their lives

The rats chewed through the thousands of skeleton warriors who became their food and the armies suddenly changed and were consisting of wights and zombies

The wights were ethereal and the rats passed through them and could not hurt them, but they could slaughter the rats 

The zombies had immense strength, and although the rats could bite and eat them, they in turn destroyed rats with their strength and had no fear of pain or death. As such, it took at least a dozen rats to put down a single zombie!

Skylar was replacing rats as fast as he could as they were dying at a rapid rate

Skylar himself was low on mana, and although he had used his tamer ability, he was also using his sword and by now his sword had broken, and his clothes were in tatters. However, what concerned him most was that his head was pounding from the strain of commanding so many rats 

Suddenly, he saw a undead knight on a horse, a death knight!

Skylar knew that this was as far as he would go, and used the remnant of his broken sword to cut off the tattered remains of his clothes, leaving only whatever was left of his pants as shorts. However, it barely covered his body as his cock could be seen hanging from his pant holes as they were so tattered

The rats attacked but were easily trampled by the knightmare, the horse of the undead creature, and even those that did could not seem to damage it with their teeth

It pointed at Skylar from a distance, and Skylar immediately felt fear

Suddenly, several banshees appeared from the distance, screaming as they flew towards Skylar at a speed comparable to a fighter jet

It is said that if one hears a banshee's scream, death was imminent 

Skylar fell to his knees in pain and started bashing his head on the ground, trying to stop the agony

The death knight suddenly appeared next to him without him realizing and with a smooth movement, got off the knightmare and kicked Skylar in the head

Skylar flew backwards and passed out from the blow as his cock popped out of his now fully torn pants

He then picked him up by his shoulder as he hung losely like a rag doll

"Take him. They want him as they find him... interesting" the Death Knight rasped in a creepy voice

The banshee that was closest took him from the death knight's arm and carried the unconscious Skylar away as the remnant of his pants fell off him in the air

The Realm of the Dead seem to get their dead and resurrect them as undead from an unknown amount of realms including Luminor

The undead denizens, the skeletons and other such undead did not only include those of humanoids from Luminor but from all sorts of lands with strange and exotic looking undead corpses 

There were other denizens that were living from various realms, but seemed to be familiar with the form of death magic and similar black magics. Many of them eventually give up their mortality and became liches

Of course there was a form of "local" inhabitant, but it wasn't so much a particular race or type of humanoid, but rather an entity that did not seem to have a will or personality of it's own. This was the main entity that the above mentioned black or dark mages worshipped and drew power from

Several liches and dark mages stood in a circle surrounding a sarcophagus as the death knight approached, carrying Skylar

"So this is the human causing so much commotion. We shall make another mummy from his corpse too!" one of the liches said in a ghastly voice

"Are you sure this is him? I don't sense much power from him" a dark mage said

Another lich approached Skylar and forced Skylar's arm onto an orb to test his ability

"Tamer? Are you sure this is right?" the dark mage asked, knowing that beast tamers were generally limited and only had the ability to summon and control one familiar at a time. A tamer could also use their beasts' senses, seeing through it's eyes and experiencing the beast's experiences. A tamer can also boost the evolution of his/her beasts abilities and also share the familiar's abilities so that the tamer could also have the abilities of the familiar.

The lich thought about it and placed Skylar's arm onto the orb again to no changes

"Pah! What a waste of time. Dispose of him" a lich said

Before the dark knight moved, another lich stopped him

"Wait! Just put him in the sarcophagus. Let him be food for the newly formed mummy" the dark mage asked

"With the Hero of Erindar?" the lich asked, referring to another realm the Realm of the Dead was connected to, completely different from Luminor

"So what? She's dead and has been turned into a mummy. She no longer has the memories of being a hero, but her superior physical attributes would make her a superior mummy queen!" the dark mage laughed

The dark knight opened the sarcophagus, revealing a completely bound up mummy, and threw Skylar's unconscious naked body onto the mummy's body before closing the sarcophagus lid

"Good! She will absorb the human's body slowly as his body slowly provides the nutrients for her to revive" the dark mage said

"Who stole my Whitewing?" Guildmaster Galdar of the Adventurers Guild in Awayo screamed hours later in the morning, when he found his prized pegasus missing in the morning

This happened hours ago, in the morning after Skylar stole his pegasus

The adventurer's guild became silent as the S Ranked adventurer raged

Nervously, the receptionist on night duty put up her trembling hand

"I... I saw the tamer of the Grey Wolves take it. I thought you had requested for it" she said

"Grey.. Wolves.." Galdar said through gritted teeth and stormed off

Minutes later, Marcel's door was kicked open as Marcel lay in bed naked with Miranda

Marcel immediately burst into action, rolling off his bed and drawing his sword even though he was naked

Miranda lay naked on the bed as Marcel had thrown off the sheets as he rolled, revealing her naked body and all the many stains on the bedsheets from a night of multiple lovemaking

"G... Guildmaster?" Marcel stammered when he realized who it was and put down his sword

"Where is he?" the Guildmaster said through gritted teeth, not even bothering with both Marcel and Miranda's nakedness

"Who?" Marcel asked

"YOUR TAMER!" Gardar yelled

"T... two doors down" Marcel said

Galdar sprinted out of the room and within seconds a second door could be heard being kicked down

Marcel rushed to put on some pants and rushed after Galdar

But it was too late as Marcel saw his new tamer Temax on the ground with Galdar mounted on him and plummeting him with his fists

Next to them, a dead shadow wolf lay with Galdar's sword piercing it to the ground 

"WHERE! WHERE IS MY PEGASUS?" Galdar screamed while holding Temax with his left hand by the collar and punching his face with his right fist

--

Half and hour later, Galdar sat angrily at the Adventurer's Guild

He had dragged the unconscious and bloodied Temax over to the guild but the receptionist confirmed that it wasn't him but the Grey Wolves' other tamer

The receptionist didn't know that Skylar had been fired and had seen him with the Grey Wolves for many years

The rest of the Grey Wolves had been summoned to the Adventurer's Guild to explain themselves as they tried to prove their innocence

"Fucking Skylar. He must be doing this to take revenge on us" Lucilder said

But there was nothing the Grey Wolves could do as officially, Skylar was still registered as part of their group

They hadn't told the Guild that they had fired Skylar yet

"... there is nothing we can do as we cannot track a flying creature, even with the best trackers" Marcel tried to explain why the new tamer Temax couldn't help find the pegasus

Furthermore, Temax's face was a mess as his nose and teeth were broken and both eyes were swollen shut

Suddenly, one of the stable boys rushed in

"It... the pegasus returned by itself!" the boy said

Galdar looked up and rushed to the stables

The pegasus was tired after flying both ways to and fro the Realm of the Dead portal 

But more importantly, the pegasus looked scared as it had dropped off Skylar where there was a concentration of undead near the portal

"What the..." the Guildmaster said, seeing the pegasus covered in dirty mud which smelled like dead corpses

"The Realm of the Dead" Temax said as he arrived with the rest of the Grey Wolves, recognizing the scent of death

"Realm of the Dead" Galdar repeated. The portal will take several hours by air, or around 5 days by foot. No wonder Whitewing looked exhausted

"We will capture Skyl... the criminal" Marcel declared and rushed off

Miranda and Elizabeth wasn't sure that this offence was that serious. After all, Skylar had returned the pegasus

But the others, especially Lucilder, seemed gleeful for this mission

--

Skylar groaned as he opened his eyes

He felt weak, and felt as if his life was fading away

It was then he noticed the soft orbs beneath his chest and looked at the wrapped up mummy beneath him!

He wanted to scream, but there was barely any air for him to breathe as his naked body was pressed tightly in the tight sarcophagus onto the mummy!

At the same time, he could hear chanting from the outside as he felt his life being sucked from his body into the mummy he was pressed to

"No... NOOO" he screamed in his mind
