《Wholly Undead》Chapter 143: Freedom is like a Dream
Advertisement
Warmarshal Frostgard dropped to a knee, and greeted, "Your Warmarshal greets you, my lord."
Xavier Doomcry dropped to his knee as well but remained silent.
"Rise and take a seat. Why is it that you have come to seek my audience?" The God-King spoke with a righteous tone.
Sarah and Xav took their sears, as Sarah spoke, "This is Xavier Doomcry. He's the leader of a band of Doomcry warriors of the Doomcry Clan. He assisted me with escorting the Grimnight clan back here to Saigunrai."
The God-King's flaming eyes turned onto Xavier Doomcry. Xav's black brow beaded up, as he came under this scrutinizing gaze.
"Isn't this the one that attacked your forces?"
"That's right. He was deceived by the Grimnight Clan." Warmarshal Frostgard replied.
Xav watched the God-King nod a few times, as he watched him perform this action, Xav looked over the God-King... He found that sitting in the lap of the God-King was a little skeletal child, but why did this child give him a feeling that he looked upon a grown woman?
"Thank you, Warmarshal Frostgard for executing your task flawlessly. I also appreciate you helping in this regard Xavier Doomcry. You have been pardoned of any fault due to the Grimnight Clan." The God-King looked over Xavier.
"Th-Thank you, my lord." Xavier squeezed out. He felt pressured before the God-King like instead of sitting, he should be face planted in prostrate.
The God-King looked by the Sarah Frostgard and waited for the next thing she was going to say... She hadn't answered him, yet.
"God-King... I have a request." Sarah asked Jack, not as The Holy Witch King, but as the God-King. Jack made a mental note but didn't correct her.
Sarah put her hand on her cold face, "We've come today to seek your approval. My family wishes for me to marry within the clan... But I want to choose who I marry."
"I see. So, it is this one." The God-King looked at Xav, "That you wish to marry."

"Yes."
"Before I continue, let me introduce you two to my Second Consort, Consort Emily..." The God-King made a motion to the Loli in his lap.
This was Sarah's first time noticing her... She would later wonder why she missed her and chalked it up to nervousness.
"It's a pleasure to meet you both," Emily said politely.
"The pleasure is mine." Sarah gave a Deagoth Salute.
Xavier bowed his head but didn't make words.
"I have a question, Warmarshal Frostgard?"
"Yes?"
"Can you smile?" The God-King asked an odd question.
Xav looked up from where his head was bowed and looked astonished at the God-King.
"...Yes... Yes, I can." Sarah answered.
"Then smile. I wish to see you smile, while I think about helping you."
"This... This is a bit difficult with the seriousness of my request." Sarah defended, as she wished not to show that side of herself to the God-King.
"I understand." The God-King nodded, as his gaze shifted to Xavier Doomcry.
"Xavier Doomcry, can you assist with Warmarshal Frostgard? Can you get her to smile?"
Xav nodded, as he looked to Sarah. Both his and her eyes matched for a moment, as she looked away.
Xav thought for a moment before he pounded his chest to gather his courage, he stood up before the God-King.
"God-King."
"...Yes?" A 'what is it?' tone replied.
"I'm Xavier Doomcry, of the Doomcry Clan. I may not be a perfect undead, but I have fallen for Sarah Frostgard! I've come here with her because she believes that with your power, you could sway her family to giving her the freedom to marry who she wants. For whatever reasons, she has chosen me, and I wish to choose her."
Xav paused, while he looked over to Sarah, "My Sarah is strong and heroic, but kind and thoughtful... She may be a bit cold, but it has a certain kind of warmth in my heart."
Xav's words sounded, and the corners of Sarah's Mouth curved upward ever so slightly, until... They cracked, and a bit of black blood running down both sides of her mouth.

As Sarah began to pull a napkin to dab the blood, at the corners of her mouth.
"Stay your hand." The God-King stood from his seat, as he placed his Consort to his side. He walked to the front of Sarah Frostgard.
"It seems that you have a condition. If I hadn't seen, you today... I would have never known." The God-King made note.
Sarah kept her head low, not looking up. This was her weakest part of her heart. Her face... Her vanity.
[Let's see if I can restore her face, with my intention.] Jack had a new target to test on... He had been waving his hand while holding his intention. This would cause things he wanted to happen to... Happen! He didn't understand how this worked, especially when he didn't use spells.
Xav watched as the God-King waved his hand, and a gold radiant wind flashed to Sarah's face. This effect was so quick, that Xav wondered if he blinked.
"Warmarshal Frostgard, smile now. There should be no problems." The God-King nodded.
Sarah touched her face and found that it wasn't rigid. It felt... It felt normal! She looked over to Xav and smiled like she would when she first acquired her adult body.
Xav couldn't help but be mesmerized by the enchanting smile of Sarah. It was like a mischievous young woman, but with the maturity of a lady in love.
[This... This is her true smile!] Xav continued to gawk.
Jack walked back around his desk, picked up his loli, and sat back down. He would later have to thank Emily for her observations, as she could tell something was wrong with Sarah's face.
"Now, let's continue with your request, Warmarshal Frostgard. You still wish to marry Xavier Doomcry?"
"Still wish too?" Sarah didn't answer, as she spoke with a more upbeat sound in her voice. Her face with more expression.
"Let me make this clear. For your contributions and your future contributions, I do not mind intervening on your behalf. You may wish to choose any partner in the Kingdom of Deagoth that is willing, and I will decree the Marriage as sanctified by the God-King."
Sarah and Xav heard these words... Xav's black sweat dripped a bit on his forehead. Did the God-King see fit to test them?
Sarah fell into thought for a few moments. Xav looked to Sarah, with a slight look of panic. He had truly fallen for her but did she only like him because he overlooked her condition...
Jack took note of the silence, as he continued to mentally messaged Emily about the two.
"Thank you, God-King." The Warmarshal bowed low.
"You are my Warmarshal, so how could I not help." The God-King nodded with a smile in his voice.
After another pause, "I wish to be married with Xavier Doomcry."
Jack nodded again, "Very well. I will hold court in a few days, and I will make this announcement."
Both Sarah and Xav bowed low, as they stood to leave. ""Thank you, God-King.""
Jack waved his hand, "I only wish to be invited to the Wedding."
"Of course," Sarah smiled in the most enchanting of ways, as she took Xav's hand, and walked out the office together with him.
The door closed, leaving Jack and Emily alone again.
"Thanks again." Jack thanked Emily for her contribution.
"Well... It was easy for me to spot the problem. I don't think a male would figure out her condition. I'm glad you were able to help her. I think it's so sweet that she gets to marry her love, instead of being forced." Emily said with a dreamy voice.
Jack's hand paused in the air, as he was going to tousle Emily's hair again... He slowly, put his hand back down, falling into deep thought.
