To be honest, I'd take the NG+ souls' lore value with a grain of salt.

Anyway, two Undead can do the same thing. As an example, Solaire of Astora completes major parts of the game before you do, yet the path is still riddled with enemies. So they could also have defeated the OIK through a Bonfire Ascetic.

Alternatively, time convolution could lead to them being from before when DaSII period of time. Paladin Leeroy and Witch Beatrice are perfect examples oc this. Both are permanently dead in DaS, but they can both enter the players world, twice.
