"You can understand us?" The Lich Lord was in disbelief that Leo could understand their conversation. Even more surprising was that he was still alive after comprehending their true language.
"Wait, is that the weird part? Not the fact that you guys kidnapped a human instead of a giant skeleton?" Leo asked, assuming that the son they were supposed to bring was going to be as huge as the other skeletons here.
How could someone mistake him for a skeleton? Even if the species could be confused, how could they confuse the size?
The Lich ignored the question, leaning forward on his throne. The movement caused a gust of wind that nearly blew Leo over.
The massive skeletal face looked straight at Leo with empty sockets burning with blue soul fire.
"He can understand the High Tongue of Necropolis as a mere human," the Lich said. "How fascinating..."
