Transmigrated as a Ghost

Receiving the information from Mrazivý that not only the lich was originally from Earth but also the dread wraith Alyna, Marcus asked her to appraise the other undead using her dragon eyes while the battle was halted.

Swiftly checked all of their statuses' quickly and located the unique skill that marked them as all having come from Earth.

'It is as you suspected, each of them has the Personal Status unique skill.' Mrazivý quickly relayed to Marcus.

Of course while learning this did make him feel a sort of kinship towards all of them since they were from the same planet and also undead, it did not change the precarious situation Marcus and Mrazivý were in.

"Alyna, what are you talking about. I already checked both of their statuses', neither of them is from Earth. Now stand aside so we can apprehend them. I am sure you know that we cannot simply let them go free." The lich said, clearly still hostile.

Seeing this Marcus snapped out of his contemplation, and began running through his head the best way for them to escape.

Frankly they were in a fairly tight spot, but the dread wraith Alyna interposing herself in between them and the other undead gave Marcus and Mrazivý a perfect opportunity.

They could easily launch their strongest attacks right at her, and catch all of the undead off-guard.

After that Marcus could stay behind and distract them long enough for Mrazivý to get away.

It was a fairly sound plan, and one that was likely to succeed, but they needed to act fast since Mrazivý had already activated her Rapid Flash unique skill and was running out of time before she was hit with its backlash.

Giving Marcus a look Mrazivý was telling him she would follow his lead and had her sword poised to launch an attack.

Yet, while this would be their best chance to strike back, Marcus could not bring himself to do so.

Currently tensions were running high between their two groups, but a nagging voice in the back of his head was telling him not to attack.

"It is as you said I am from Earth like the five of you. I have a unique skill that can change hat information my status shows which is why you did not find it when you appraised me."

Then before he was questioned, started spouting off random words from languages back on Earth.

He was certainly only fluent in his native tongue, but he knew a few phases in most of the more widespread languages.

This clearly worked to garner the attention of the five powerful undead, who recognized that the words Marcus had just said surely came from Earth.

"Seeing that he now had their attention and that hostilities were starting to wane Marcus said, "As we all share the same home and similar circumstances with my being an undead as well, I believe that we can come to an understanding. Please allow my companion to leave unharmed and I will stay and we can have a serious discussion."

Unfortunately, Marcus had not obtained enough goodwill yet to make such a demand and the lich outright refused.

"No, I am open to speaking with you, but I cannot allow either of you to leave. I have worked too hard and for too long to keep this place hidden to leave anything to chance."

Tensions began to rise again, but Marcus was not willing to back down.

"I can tell that you all care for each other which is why I believe we can negotiate, but just like you I am willing to fight to the end to protect what I care about. You can let my wife leave or we will fight with all we have to get out of here and likely destroy each other in the process." Marcus said, his voice sharp and offering no room for negotiation.

For a few moments the lich who was obviously in charge hesitated on what to do, but when it was clear that Marcus was about to strike out, Alyna brough an end to the hostilities once again.

"Fine se can leave if you stay." Alyna said.

An instant later the sealed door opened, and Marcus nodded to Mrazivý to go.

Naturally she did not want to leave Marcus down there alone, but understood that if they were not going to be fighting that her presence put him at a disadvantage.

Her form shimmered for a second and using all her speed enhancing skills, she began making her way back up to the surface faster than any of the undead could keep up with.

"Alyna, why would you do that?!"

"Now those on the outside are going to learn about us!"

After the dread wraith Alyna allowed Mrazivý to escape, the lich and zombie empress began chastising her.

"Cassius, Soren, go after her and bring her back if possible. Kill her if you must." The lich said to the phantom armor and skeleton champion, panic seeping into his tone.

Before they could take a step though, Marcus willed his scythe over to them and had it stab into the ground in front of the two undead that were about to pursue Mrazivý.

"I said I would stay and talk if you let her go. Of course, if you want to fight, I do not mind." Marcus said, radiating confidence.

He did not think he could actually win a fight against all five of them, but he was certain he could hold them off long enough for Mrazivý to get far away and then slip away himself. In terms of running away, he was very confident in his skills.

"I think we should hear him out. He might be able to help us." Alyna said, a tinge of desperation in her voice.

At this point the lich had a frustrated look on his face, but eventually let out a sigh and agreed. Knowing that Mrazivý had already escaped their grasp and that fighting would get them nowhere.
