3. Recap of Episode 5
Phanora is called in by the necromancer if she wants to save Johan’s life. The necromancer lost someone close to him in a fire and vowed to bring her back to her original beauty using necromancy.
Phanora and Jeff are led to a dining room surrounded by redhead Undeads. The necromancer is sitting on the head of the table. Phanora reveals how the necromancer used bare-minimum magic to raise so many Strays, which is why they are so sloppy.
If the necromancy fails and the body dies another time, the soul does not go to the death or rebirth realm again. Their minds are stuck in the void forever. The necromancer wants Phanora’s beauty as he lost someone beautiful with fiery red hair.
The girl died in a fire, so recreating her beautiful features has been the necromancer’s goal. Phanora is the ideal beauty for him to reincarnate his lost love. Phanora is disappointed at the necromancer’s reason.
The necromancer is convinced Phanora cannot oppose him, but she reveals her true form, a witch. The necromancer threatens her with Johan’s life, but she is indifferent. Out of desperation, he summons his army.
Phanora counters with her own army of Death Knights and orders them to kill everyone except Jeff. The necromancer runs away, but Johan shows up, revealing that he is a Witch’s Undead, making him different.
Johan tortures the necromancer until Phanora and Jeff show up but doesn’t kill him. Phanora makes Jeff sign a contract of silence and then kills the necromancer. She revives him and then makes him maintain all his Strays.
