Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 1090: Strange connection



The prime minister didn't miss the look on my face and immediately came forward to grab my arm before saying, "What's wrong?"

With the way that he grabbed my arm, it was as if he was ready to rip the Orb of the Dead out of my hand at any moment.

I couldn't help feeling a bit touched since he and I both knew what would be the danger of this.

I made the Orb of the Dead recognize me as a master, so I was able to control the powers of the Orb of the Dead. However, the prime minister hadn't done the same and didn't have protection against mana like I did, so he would be hurt by the Orb of the Dead if he were to touch it with his bare hands.

In fact, this was something that we had already confirmed since all of us had been curious about if anyone else could use the Orb of the Dead.

But of course, it resulted in mild corrosion of the hand that had to be purified by a priest. So it was not something that could be done that easily.

I shook my head at him before saying, "I'm fine, it's just that I've noticed something strange while trying to raise this goblin as a zombie."

"Strange?" The prime minister repeated in a confused voice.

I slowly nodded before turning back to look at the goblin corpse without explaining anything.

The prime minister knew that I was still trying to figure something out, so he let go of my arm and watched as I used the Orb of the Dead to inject dark energy into the goblin corpse. But the way that both him and the chancellor stood there beside me was as if they were ready to step in just in case anything happened.

I just ignored the two of them as I completely focused on the goblin corpse.

That was because during the process of trying to turn the goblin corpse into a zombie, I had encountered something strange.

It was the residual energy that was inside of the goblin.

Even though the goblin was dead, there was still this form of energy that resided inside of the goblin corpse.

This wasn't a form of energy that came from the goblin when it was still alive, rather this was a form of energy that came from outside of the goblin.

As for why I was certain of this...

I knew the moment that I felt the energy, I knew that there was something familiar about it.

It didn't take long for me to realize that it was the dark energy that came from the orbs that the dark elves planted in different parts of the country. This was the energy that had been used to corrupt the monsters, turning them aggressive and causing them to form a monster wave like that.

This was the plan of the demons.

It seemed that even though the monsters died, this energy resided inside of them. Though I could tell that there was nothing dangerous about this energy, it was just that it lingered in them. It was as if it was draining something away from the corpse...

It was hard to tell what it was, but that wasn't the only thing that surprised me. Even though both the energy that was used to incite the monsters and the dark energy that came from the Orb of the Dead were black in colour, there was something different about them.

One of them seemed to be some kind of demonic power while the other seemed to be related to the power of death.

So there was something different about these two different forms of power.

"But why is there a similarity between them?" I couldn't help thinking to myself as I compared the two forms of energy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

It was a very faint feeling, but it really felt like there was something that seemed to be connecting the two forms of energy together. It really seemed like there was something that was similar about the two of them.

It took me a while to realize it, but I eventually figured it out.

"The source!" I suddenly shouted out loud.

The prime minister and the chancellor looked at me with very strange looks when they heard this before the prime minister asked, "Source? What do you mean by source?"

I realized that I had accidentally said this out loud, which caused an awkward look to appear on my face. But since I had said it out loud, it wasn't as if I could just ignore it now.

So I said, "The energy of the Orb of the Dead and the energy that came from the orbs that were used to incite the monsters came from the same source, even if they had different functions. It seemed like they came from the same place."

"That's not surprising since all of these were plots of the demons." The prime minister said as if this was natural.

I slowly gave a nod, but I also shook my head afterwards before saying, "It's like that, but it's also different. It seems like there's something divine about this power."

"Divine?" The prime minister and chancellor repeated in confused voices.

I nodded, but I didn't explain since this was a bit too hard to explain.

I really didn't know what to say about this since it wasn't easy to say.

So in the end, I just said with a sigh, "Forget it, it's too hard to explain. All you need to know is that it isn't a problem to revive this goblin as a zombie."

The prime minister and chancellor looked like they wanted to ask me more, but they didn't say anything in the end since they knew that I wouldn't say anything else. This was something

that they were used to since I had kept many secrets before.

"Just what is the source of this power?" I asked myself in a soft voice.
