Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.I don’t want to die. I want to be free. To that end, I shall….reconcile myself to the fate of becoming a “monster”.
A strange disease that racks one’s entire body with intense never-ending pain, until the person slowly withers away and eventually dies. After a few years of braving through the pain, the boy is in no luxury to even feel despair. With nary a soul to tend to him, he breathes his last.
The next time he opened his eyes, the boy had become an “Undead” of the lowest rank through the power of an evil Necromancer.
The boy rejoices at having his earnest desire fulfilled, which is a body that will never feel pain. However, he realizes that he is still under someone’s control and how it was no different from when he was cooped up in the hospital ward.
But the world would not leave alone the boy who only wished for peace.
The Necromancer who revives the boy from the dead, names him “End” and attempts to gain control over him.
The Undead Knights, lay their lives on the line to persistently chase after and annihilate the beings of the darkness.
With countless monsters under their command, the Demon Lords rule over their own lands while they all contend for ultimate supremacy.
The motivation being survival and freedom. The requirements being caution and power.
This is the tale of the cowardly King of the Undead. In his pursuit for freedom, he heads into battle and turns tail at times. He knows when to fear his opponents and when to waver in his decisions.

I think the problem here is that the focus on the protagonist being a monster and corrupted, but I feel like his character would also genuinely feel a great deal of joy in the position he's in, and right now he's just a bit too gloomy, and static with his desire for survival.
I feel that the tone of the character enjoying life without pain, and his new freedom even if he's currently in trouble, would really help speed this portion of the story up, and right now its landing like its too much gloom and doom.
He's just achieved a great goal, the greatest ever in either life time, and we don't honestly get to enjoy it enough. The author really lingers on that emotion of gloom n doom too much during the finish of the necromancer arc if you ask me. Personal taste and all is what it is, but I feel that, he should've let the character feel success for a little longer, as he's been crippled for so long that I feel the emotion would really punch hard here.
