Sam and Chatur left as silently as they came. But the news about the death of everyone in the battle-field being dead was heard and both sides suffered the losses. But no one knew what happened. Even though the news traveled fast, they couldn't figure it out and no one is free enough to care about this place.

Even Sectum and Salvan couldn't do anything about their troops as they felt they had a much bigger problem on their hands.

The Union sect is not honoring their agreement as per which they would definitely put on a show along with the rubrum squads and leave half of the resource points, no matter what happens regarding Sam. They already knew that Sam is dangerous and they didn't want to leave the deal to his death.

So, they made a clause that even if Sam didn't die, their end of the deal is finished since they lured him to the hill, so they demanded that they should get what they asked for. The sect agreed at that time, but now they are clearly breaking the deal as they are not ready to face the losses of around six hundred people for nothing.

They might be bosses of the sect in this layer, but the real boss is out there somewhere within the Naga Loka and everything they are doing is based on his words and plans. They don't have any real say. And they are not planning to honor their words from the beginning anyway.

All they did is make some changes.

Sam reached second place, the place where Salvan is trying his best to get a victory.

They are battling over a mountain range and the terrain is good for guerilla war far and both sides are doing just that.

Both sides are only trying to wear each other out as they sent small groups across the mountain to the enemy's camps and trying to chip each other down.

Sam wanted to take advantage of this and wanted to create chaos. Even though he cannot use the undead formation here as the results would be too disappointing with that, he had other plans.

He could just use this to improve his shadows.

Sam let out all his shadows and started dealing with small groups of five to ten within the mountains and he didn't just stop there, first, he made your shadows devour the shadow energy of the dead bodies and stored them inside the divine dimension, before turning them into the undead.

Sam couldn't control this undead normally if there are no mental connections, but things are different once he made them within his divine dimension, they cannot do anything there.

He collected undead like that and after collecting a decent amount, he went near the camp of the rubrum empire and released them all.

They wouldn't last long as there is no energy supply, but Sam doesn't need them last long as his shadows, he and his beasts also joined the fray.

He let go of all his beasts, including Mia as they hunted the camp like crazy.

Sam didn't just fight, he made every dead body into an undead after making a nearby shadow of his absorb the shadow energy.

Soon, the whole camp is full of corpses emitting death energy which was also absorbed by the shadows.

He once again collected the corpses and threw them in this divine dimension before moving to another camp.

He repeated the process and due to the higher numbers, he let the owls out and made them help him with the cleaning.

The continuous success almost convinced Sam to continue improving his necromancy, almost because Sam was never in his top condition throughout the battle as every undead he created drained his energy for the creation itself.

Even though, there is no mental connection and continuous energy supply the sheer number of creations made him feel exhausted. But this is the best way to increase his shadow energy and also clear the battlefield fast enough.

Just like that he cleared two battle-fields and his last target from the Rubrum empire, Sectum is also feeling that something off about the whole situation as two of his armies disappeared just like that.

He is not ready to take risks and wanted to talk with the Union sect boss as he planned to retreat after sorting out the deal. He has too much at stake in the current situation and didn't want to back out without any benefits.

He has been trying to meet with the boss of the union sect for the past two days, but he couldn't just get a hold of them as they deliberately ignored him.

But at this moment, even the Union sect's bosses are feeling that something was off as the two battle-fields they concentrated the most disappeared just like that.

They couldn't help but feel targeted but they still have no choice but to go through with their plan. They know better than anyone how much competition they had to endure. Their orders were to make sure this civil war happened no matter the cost and they are going to do so. If they backed out because of the losses and reported back to ask for advice, there is no way they would escape scot-free.

Their positions that they earned with all that effort were not something they are willing to let go of easily.

So, they accepted the request from Sectum and arranged a meeting place and time, but Sam who doesn't know anything about was already proceeding with his plan.

Due to their meeting plan, the two troops are in a temporary truce of retreat.

And Sam who doesn't know why this calm is just didn't bother rejecting such an opportunity and a bunch of undead assaulted the tents of Sectum's camp on that night along with the shadows as they assassinated many soldiers adding a few more undead.

The camp soon turned chaotic and it soon reached Sectum's tent which is the middle of it all.

He was surrounded by undead all around, but there are not too many by this time as many have lost the energy and became cold corpses again.

As Sectum started fighting with the undead, Sam slowly walked towards him kicking a few undead that wanted to do make a move on him.

When Sectum saw Sam, his eyes widened and he felt like he understood what is happening.

He almost forgot that he was in the middle of the battle and even the sounds of his troops slowly dying didn't wake him up out of his stupor. He just pointed a finger at Sam and tried to say something. But no words came out of his mouth.

Sam let the undead have their way with him as they slowly bit him off, but he didn't just let him die. Just before he couldn't take it anymore, he healed him.

This made Sectum to scream in anguish as he cried, wept, cursed, and begged Sam to kill him.

"If you answer a few questions, then I would let you go."

"Y… Yes."

"Whose plan is it trap me? Yours or the Union sect's?"

"It's mine." Even though he knew that he might receive another round of torture, he didn't have enough mind to lie at this point.

"Where did you contact the boss? How can I meet them?"

"They contacted me directly, I don't know how to directly get in touch with him, all I can do is try through their right-hand men. But there is a way for you to meet them."

Sam just stood there waiting for him to finish.

"We arranged a meeting tomorrow morning and it is within a cave three kilometers to Northwest. That is why we have a temporary truce."

Sam nodded and finished him off as he promised as he let the undead slowly disappeared, before collecting some more corpses.

He went back to the hiding spot as he thought of what to do. He was deciding whether he should contact the boss and deal with him or go to the base and destroy it. After some time, he thought of an idea and went back to the said cave first.

He took out Murali's inscription paintbrush as he started etching all of the cave walls and he spent four hours like that. It is almost dawn when he was done and he immediately sneaked out and reached the camp once again.

He sat in a hiding spot waiting for one of the two things to happen. One thing is the soldiers in the base finding out their opponents are already dead and another one is a signal from the cave he visited.

The first doesn't seem likely to happen as the truce is still present. But after an hour, Sam smiled as the second this happened.

He immediately went on with his usual plan as he unleashed a wave of undead over this place. For the next two and a half hours, all he could hear was howling and screaming as they cried their last words.

Sam sent the corpses to the second floor of the divine dimension. Generally, the corpses wouldn't be suitable to make them undead after a day and he might not need undead for the next day. But he is not willing to let them go and he used this cheat to keep them fresh.
