After two days, Conquest will finally be opened in a few minutes time. Dave and Ralph were both at Dave's appartement. They ordered pizza while ago and for the first time, Dave was the one who ended up with the last slice. He didn't forget to gloat to Ralph's face after all those years of snatch and grab for the last piece.

"So, I heard that you gotten ballsier and got some nookie," Ralph wiggled his brows up and down.

"Damn bro, who told you that?"

"Euh, everyone knew man, and in the Don's own house. Jesus, I don't know if you have balls or just outright dumb. But thanks to Caitlin everyone acted like they didn't know anything."

"The door was closed""

"Yeah, but you forgot the window was open. Everyone heard you guys."

"Oh god. That's embarrassing."

"You think it's embarrassing? You should see how Zoe acted when Caitlin told her about it."

"Damn, no wonder she's been avoiding me."

"Aoi! Bro, don't mess up, you should go and meet up with Zoe, act like nothing strange happened and make jokes about this. It's essential that you make her know that no matter what happened that you'll still love her and keep her in mind all the time. Girls like to be kept in attention, even if she ignores you or avoid you, make sure that you make her know that you still want her."

"Hey, I do still want her, what does that has to do with anything?"

"You've been out of the dating game for a long time that I thought that you forgot your role in a relationship. Anyway, ask her out tonight, not over text or a phone call, show up at her doorsteps, take her out for a dinner and for the love of god go and get laid again. Don't make the only time you had s.e.x be awkward. Have more, don't hesitate and don't make it feel like it's unnatural."

"Right, like how you do with Caitlin" Dave said in sarcasm.

"Yes, exactly, we're humping like rabbits every day," Ralph replied smugly

"For real!" Dave's eyes widened. "But she's the Don's daughter, I thought you never went for more than kisses."

"Dude! Even if she is the don's daughter, she is still a girl, don't even think that only guys want some. Anyway, what are you planning on doing in Conquest once it's online?"

"Well, I need to see what Demitri is up to in the east then check out this Dragon Event, I heard that Dragon Meat is good for Onixya. Also, I need to go and check out what Balaam has for me, he did mention that I need to go and meet up with him in the mountain of glory."

"Right, right, but I'm talking about the Devastators, they brokered a deal with you. You'll help them to join the legion is that right?"

"Well, I no longer have the keys to the underworld. I can't stop people from coming, so why not make a profit out of it."

"Just be careful not to get backstabbed you know. They could make an undead army and try to overthrow the undead King, you know Valentine might look like a nice guy, but he is pretty devious when it comes to the best of the guild."

"Don't worry, the legion is not as simple as you think. I'd even want to see him try and overthrow the Undead King."

"Well, he wasn't much in the last battle. He got roughed up pretty badly," Ralph said.

"As much as I'd like to deny that, it was a fact, but do keep in mind. The Ash King was a level 900 demi-god. The Undead King is just an undead and was much lower level. And the king was targeted with a Forbidden Chapter."

"Right, anyway just stay safe and don't trust the Devis."

"I'll keep it in mind."

"Aight, I'll have to head out."

"You're going home? The game is gonna launch in a few minutes, you think you'll make it?" Dave asked.

"No, I have a date, I'll play later tonight. See ya bro."

"Right then, I won't show you the door."

Ralph smiled and waved Dave goodbye.

Dave went into his gaming capsule as soon as it was time for the servers to start back up again. The game was going to start pretty soon and he didn't want to wait any longer.

Once he was online, he was met with a notification.

***

Please do hold on for 30 seconds while we upload your gaming content to resolve and occurring issue that is causing some of the game monsters to glitch.

A timer of thirty seconds began counting down until it hit zero and another notification appeared in front of Dave.

Thank you for your patience. Please enjoy the game.

Dave found himself in the Underworld. Right at the front gates of the former Ash King's Keep.

The Undead were still roaming about the battlefield and slaying the Demonic stragglers.

The Undead King was near Dave and the Skeletal Dragon was soaring the skies.

"Kis'Shtiengbrah. You have aided Us greatly; you have also proven Us wise for having chosen you as Our successor. Now, our time lingering in the Underworld has ended. For that We shall need to create a Kingdom above the ground. We no longer need to be held here."

"Well, you're more than welcome to build it in my Kingdom of the East, afterall if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ever had the chance to conquer the east."

"Then so be it, I shall task Dagla with moving the Bone Palace to bee the symbol of your kingdom. I shall not rule your subjects of the human race, but I shall take a place within your kingdom so that when we seek Conquest of the lands, we shall have a closer stronghold to start from."

"Nice, the Bone Palace will be a pretty good addition to the Capital city of Qin. So what are we doing here, your majesty?"

"We still need to takeover the Ash King's Keep. There are some of his followers left, we'll raze them to the ground and takeover his belongings. Then once that is over, I shall come meet you in the overworld. Your work here is done. And I shall make sure to keep your share of the spoils of the battle in safe keeping."

"That'll be pretty great, thanks," Dave grinned, he was going to get a portion of the loot without even having to look for it. His job here has ended and now he has a promise to fulfill.

Dave used a teleportation scroll and left to Icathia the capital of the Devastators.

The appearance of Dave brought a lot of attention. His undead avatar was too obvious in a city filled with human knights.

Dave's shadow cape swayed as he moved, his every step sounded like it was the beating of a living heart. And his presence was deathly, enough that priests avoided him and guards made sure not to stand in his way.

Once Dave arrived to the center of Icathia where the Grand Auction house was at. He sent Valentine a private message.

"Come. We have a deal to conclude."

Not a couple seconds longer, the reply came.

"We're on our way."

Minutes later, a hundred player showed up in front of the auctionhouse.

All of them, the best of the best of the Devastators guild. All wishing to be a part of the people Dave personally recruits to join the legion.

"Do we need a ceremony or something?" one of the hundred players asked.

"No, not really, just come here," Dave said.

Dave issued a mental command so that the [Turn to Undeath] function was on.

Once the player was right next to Dave, the latter grinned, "I think I know why the Undead King likes to do this." And stabbed the man in the chest with Durandal.

The player was shocked to see the massive sword pierce with ease right through him.

The remaining players were on guard, was Skelly turning aggressive? But they didn't see any damage value.

"Accept!" the stabbed player said and soon his flesh rotted, turning from normal to a darker shade of dried rotten gray.

His eyes vanished inside their sockets, and his flesh was squeezed dry as skin was stuck to bone. His glittering armor turned to broken shambles. It was still as powerful as it was before but it had changed its visual effect. The Undead legion had standard looking armor and even if a player were to use a differently shaped armor it will look similar to an undead.

"Now welcome to the legion." Dave said and pulled out his sword.

"It says I can now teleport to the Dead Realm. Why don't I have the other gates unlocked?" the player asked.

"Because you're currently a casual tier undead. You'll need to be at least Elite level to access the Undead Frontier, captain for the Burning heights, Death Knight for the Pharaoh's Tomb, and Doom Knight for the Drow Kingdom. As for the Ash King's keep, that's only reserved for Abyssal Knight class and a select few special undead that could get there."

"Oh, good to know then."

Dave looked around and said, "Next!"

The players kept standing in front of Dave and getting stabbed until they were done and finished. In front of Dave stood a hundred undead all of the lowest tire possible.

"Listen up, there are a few things I'll have to tell you guys. In the legion, if an Undead captain orders you to do something, you do it. Even if you're level 400 and he is 50, he is your superior. Consider it like the army. Don't ever think that just because you're stronger, you'll get to get away with anything you do. There are always deeper seas and higher mountains. That's my only warning. Otherwise, enjoy the legion and all of its advantages." Dave said and bad them farewell. He still needed to fulfill his agreement with the other players that lost their legacies and he promised them to turn them to undead to have them compensated.

"Man, I still have lots of work to do," Dave sighed to himself and tore another teleportation scroll.
