Why did he surround the pile of skeletons instead of surrounding Choi Han or the Dark Elves?

Why over there?�

They started to hear loud laughter at that moment.

�Hahaha! Our young master Shield-nim truly is the best!�

�He knows everything! Pwahahaha.�

The Empire�s side could not help but scream in shock. The black beings were charging toward them.

�Y, you damn Elves! Attack!�

�Get in defensive formation!�

The Dark Elves started their attack on the Empire�s people. The mages and black mages stepped in as the knights were afraid of the dead mana surrounding them.

�There is nothing we need to worry about now! Just make sure they don�t die!�

�It is the commander-nim and Tasha�s order! Sweep them all away!�

The Dark Elves had only attacked the containers with dead mana since coming into this underground hall. They had no choice.

It was because of the skeletons.

The Dark Elves could deeply feel what those skeletons left behind here had felt.

They were a race that had the darkness attribute since birth and always lived with both nature and death by their side. They couldn�t mess around with things left by the dead.

The skeletons that the dead left behind had to return to their remaining families in this world.

That was a law of nature.

They needed to return to the people of the slums who were probably evacuating the Empire�s citizens right now, as well as to the people around the continent who were waiting for their family members who had suddenly disappeared.

That was the only way for death to not end just in death but instead to continue to tomorrow.

The pile of skeletons was the only thing in the Alchemists� Bell Tower that the Dark Elves saw as something to protect.

There was someone from the Empire who figured that out.

�Pwa, hahahaha!�

It was Adin.

He was laughing so hard that he moved back from fighting against Choi Han and almost bent forward from laughter. JrNovels.com
