DEATH MAGE SC NOVEL (2025)

After becoming King of Talosheim, Vandal successfully defeated the invasion of his city by an Imperial expedition army. The force was led by Goldan and Raily, two of those who killed Vandal's mother Dalshia. In the end, Vandal used his Soul Crusher to destroy their souls. In the aftermath, as his allies work to further improve the nation of Talosheim, Vandal plans a trip to the domain of Duke Heartner in order to register as an adventurer and get his original life plan-to become a noble-back on track. However, one of Vandal's fellow classmates who was reborn onto Origin, where Vandal spent his second life, is reaching the end of his time there...

As Vandal and his allies were working to take back Talosheim from the demon barren, vampires with orders to assassinate Vandal appeared in the city. But Vandal acquired the skill Soul Crusher and was able to successfully avenge his own father, Varen, by killing the noble species vampire Sercrent. He subsequently ventured beneath Talosheim Castle and also crushed the soul of the Frozen Spear Ice Age. However, while all that was going on, an expedition army from the Milg Shield Kingdom-including High Priest Goldan, one of those who killed Vandal's mother-was preparing to invade Talosheim.
