Idris' POV:
I took the girl by the hair and held her up. She was a bit older than me, maybe 2 years.
Brown hair covered her diamond blue eyes, as she hung in the air.
When she suddenly awoke, she began screaming in agony. She cried after her father that was laying before her, as I put my knife at her neck.
I was already looking forward on killing her. I unsealed the spell that had bound marquis Larmanton for so long, to hear his desperate screams.
Tears were already flowing out of his eyes and when the spell was deactivated, he started pleading me to release her.
I was happy about the development. All had gone right after my plan. And now I could even hear those enjoyable cries.
I said in a merry tone : "Fine I won't touch her for now. But she has to watch us having some fun."
I placed the girl onto the ground and moved to the side of the marquis again.
"You have to watch. If you don't, I'm afraid your father will die." I spoke to the girl. She nodded, her face still full of tears.
I led my hand towards one of marquis Larmanton's eyes. I shove my three 9f my fingers into his eye socket and pulled. His eyeball flew out and landed on the floor in front of the girl.
She stared at it intently as if she didn't know what just happened.
I took the bloody eyeball and said: "Please open your mouth. You don't want your father to die, do you?"
The girl opened her mouth slowly. She really didn't want her father to die. That's why she did what I said.
The screams of the marquis still didn't stop. She was irritated, but didn't do anything to help, because she had too much fear.
I put the eyeball inside of her mouth.
"Please chew on it a bit. It's very tasty." I convinced her to eat it.
She bit it and a popping sound could be heard. The girl began chewing. She grimaced at the taste.
I wanted to have it too. It really didn't taste?
"Please put your hand on the ground." I had become angry.
She did as I said. I started to stomped onto her hand. I could hear the bones in her hand breaking.
She screamed in pain. Her father was pleading him again to stop and just resume with him.
The hand was stomped into mush and only blood remained on the floor.
I got an idea and said: "Fine I will spare her." Marquis Larmanton stopped screaming as he wanted to thank me. But before he could I continued: "I'm just kidding."
I laughed frantically and took my knife I had stored on my belt. I swung it and stopped right in front of the girl's throat.
I then moved downwards and stabbed the girl in the heart. I'm afraid it was a quick death, but it couldn't be helped anymore.
"I had way too little fun with her" I said in a disappointing tone.
Even so, I could still use my necromancy on her. It would also be a perfect test. It wouldn't hurt me, if the body got turned into ashes, so why shouldn't I do this?
I activated "The Superb Necromancer Technique". I used it on the girl on front of me.
Black light began to shine around her. Darkness started to wrap around her and soon she completely inside it. The darkness formed something like an armor and took the shape of the girl.
After a short moment, she stood up, as if nothing had happened.
That meant, that the soul and the spirit of a person would only dissipate after a longer period of time. A person that would be turned into such a shadow, could also be reincarnated with the right spell. The body too was still inside the shell and could be used as a vessel for the soul and spirit.
I nodded in satisfaction and ordered the girl to move into one of his shadows, that he had placed in various places beforehand.
In that moment a change occurred in the technique's window:
[The Superb Necromancer Technique]:
[Shadows: 1]
[Strength: 1]
[Energy: -]
[Cultivation: 1st layer Body Tempering Realm]
The girl had probably been at the 1st layer Body Tempering Realm and that's why it went up. The shadow number and strength also increased according to the stats of the girl.
I had already been happy before, but now I was even more delighted.
I turned around to face marquis Larmanton again. His eye was still bleeding, he was unconscious.
I wanted to start with the Spirit Destruction now. I slapped the marquis awake and activated the spell.
I turned into my spirit form and was flung I to his spirit.
His spirit had a red aura, meaning that his karma was in the negative region. It was no wonder, knowing how many crimes he had commited.
There was a landscape that seemed endless and somewhere at the horizon was a wooden cabin. It was small and looked even smaller in comparison to the vastness of my surroundings.
I went towards the cabin and opened the door. Inside was a old man laying on a table, sleeping. It was marquis Larmanton.
I moved to his side, took my knife and stabbed into his arm. He didn't move, but I could hear his screams.
Then the landscape changed again, this time to the reality. I took my knife and stabbed him again.
The spirit of a person extends over the whole body, so it didn't matter where I would injure him, his spirit would be damaged. Even so, you could only injure it after activating a spell which made the spirit touchable.
I began slicing him up until he wasn't recognizable anymore. His remaining eye had turned around, showing only white and from his mouth came foam.
I enjoyed it until the very end. I turned his head around until his neck cracked.
He was now out of his misery. Or so marquis Larmanton had probably thought. But I had other plans. I activated The Superb Necromancer Technique again and turned him into the 2nd subordinate.
