Skeleton Soldier Couldn't Protect the Dungeon

Six hours passed by while watching her.

I was going to get some water, but she fell asleep and didn't let go.

‘That's too bad.'

Looking at the stats window, the visible Strength stat is less than 10.

But I can't get rid of it. You may have a special skill.

She only breathed a few times, but the air in the cave suddenly became cloudy and dazed.

“Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Just a little longer, she lets out a small groan.

“You're awake.”

Rub your eyes lightly with your hands.

She looks around for a moment and opens her wet lips slowly, looking at me.

“Dreams.

A sleepwalking voice loosely flows out of your mouth.

“It's not a dream. ”

I interrupted.

“Huff!”

A short groan catches in Rubia's thin throat. She trembles lightly.

“That. That's what I'm talking about! How did you know?”

“Just.”

Keep your eyes open. I can feel my body temperature rising in shock.

“Amazing.

Rubia leans back slowly towards me and asks.

“You really did answer my summons, didn't you? ”

“Yes."

Rubia grunts for a moment, and finally speaks out.

“Perhaps another powerful Necromancer nearby summoned you? Is it really me? Do you mind if I check? ”

There is definitely a powerful necromancer.

‘Gizgerai.’

If the world didn't change significantly, you could see her in a dry cemetery three months later.

She's preparing for the Emperor's assassination.

‘I need to tell you something. ’

I have something to tell you. Go to:

But not now. I want to focus on Rubia first.

“I'm sure. You raised me.

The deal is done. Do you want to hang up? ”

“No! Absolutely not! ”

She shakes her head sideways.

“Sure. I'll give you a soul or something. Will it work? Or...

“Soul?”

“You summoned someone too strong!

Uh, so... According to the law of equal exchange.! ”

Interesting argument.

“Well, you know. Maybe my soul will come in handy! I mean, I don't know if I can get you anything.

“No, I like it. ”

“I like it. Do you like it? My soul?"

Dallac.

I nodded.

“Of course.”

I'd like to make a good face to reassure Rubia, but unfortunately, that's too much. Rubia closes her eyes.

“Sure. Take it, take it. Go!”

I laughed.

Of course, the soul cannot be accepted.

Shamans like Isaac may not know how to use them, but I don't even know how to accept human souls.

Rubia reaches out her face, as if my soul were in her forehead.

Bloop.

The white finger bone extends. It touches your forehead. The fever from your fingertips slowly dissipates inward.

Maybe you can call it a soul.

“Took it.”

“Ah.”

After a short sigh, she immediately opened her eyes and looked at me.

“How. Was he so strong? ”

“Me?”

“Yes, you lit a fire in your hand!

You're a wizard, right? ”

“Besides, um...

“Let's talk, though. ”

Rubia's face turns red.

“It's heavy! ”

≪. ? ”

“Me. Totally. It's heavy, you hugged me and you ran so fast! ”

Of course, there's no weight at all.

I didn't feel it.

I've never thought that she was heavy in a repetitive life.

“It was lighter than a feather. ”

Rubia snaps her waist forward with a groan.

“No way! ”

“I didn't even think I had it.

If you want it to be heavy, you're gonna have to work harder. ”

“Hmph! ”

She frowns with a strange look. I quietly looked at Rubia and asked.

“What was the purpose of causing me? ”

It's good to pretend to know from the beginning, but it's not bad to pretend not to know.

“Is there anything you'd like to do? ”

Rubia thinks of the bear and clenches her fist.

“The castle. I want it back. ”

‘You've changed.’

The old Rubia did not say this. You talked about going to Ember.

‘Cause.

The skeleton he created is much stronger than I thought.

Maybe that's what got her thinking.

Rubia told me in detail again.

“It doesn't matter if you're not a lord.

I just want to save you. who were in prison trying to help me.

Too many people have suffered. I abandoned them and ran away. ”

“Will it work?”

Of course, there are no problems with the repatriation itself.

‘Too easy. ’

Even when I was so weak that I couldn't compare to now, there was no one stronger than me in the tournament held in Erast.

A small town in the south with nothing.

You can kick in the gate or jump over the wall.

Killing the current lord and a handful of his followers should be a simple matter.

However.

It's the Imperial Court that gets caught.

You're gonna cut down an Imperial man and sit the new lord?

We know enough about their strength to fight the Imperial 'Ghosts' directly.

After all, it's a matter of backing up.

But...

‘The lord said he didn't have the strength.

That's what I heard, torturing two men all night long.

Rubia's new lord's uncle doesn't seem to have been recognized for his fierce incompetence.

Risk bearing, maybe less. ’

Whoever the lord is.

Why don't we just cooperate with the Imperial Court?

In the first place.

If the Imperial Court has clearly supported you.

The current lord Erastor has no reason to feel threatened by his nephew, Rubia.

I feel like I'm about to be thrown out.

Trying to kill Rubia.

‘Maybe it's okay to be lord.

Attack Erast.

It may not be surprisingly dangerous.

Plus, there is a quest.

[Make Rubia Lord of Erast!]

[Level Up Your Rule to Level 10!]

[Reward:??]

I recall her status window again to check the quest.

I don't know what the reward will be, but it's enough to challenge me.

She pitifully appeals with a voice full of water.

“There are a lot of people who might be executed tomorrow morning. Save him.

I want to give it to you. "

“What kind of people are trapped? ”

“For now.

“Let's go.”

“Really?"

You nod. It's not that hard.

Hearing the story of Rubia, the key figures of Erastor are locked up in prison in support of Rubia.

I let them go to work, and I thought I'd be done with the trafficking cartel the current lord brought with me.

‘Maybe it's too easy. ’

I doubt that. I thought that a quest of a much higher rank would be so easy than Lena's, but now that I think about it, I've become more powerful than ever before.

Maybe a Class S quest is an easy thing for her now?

“Then my job is.

I looked at Rubia and said confidently.

“Just walk. ”

“Walk." ”

“Yes."

“Just walk? ”

“Didn't you say you wanted to go back to your seat? Just walk.”

“Huh.

The way she's going.

I'll clear all the obstacles in front of him.

The bloody Hou stopped like when it was raining.

The sun is shining like when, and Rubia walks only between them.

‘This is the first time I've ever been back out to the entrance.

“Ah.

Rubia stands vacant on a mountain pass marked by numerous raindrops.

I came out of the cave, but I don't think I caught anything yet.

“Go to the castle. Take your place.”

“Yes!”

Her eyes falter for a moment, but she nods.

‘Hidden.’

“Ah! I can't see Skeleton! ”

“Stay by my side. ”

“Amazing. But what if I want to see it? ”

“Wow!”

“Don't worry too much. I'll always be there for you anyway. ”

I hid myself away again.

“Wow. It's gone.! ”

[Servant System]

[Rubia thinks you're incredibly immature.]

[Title: Obtain the ‘Invisible’.]

[When fighting for masters, your Stealth stat is increased by 30%.]

‘This.! ’

Reappearance of the servant system.

30% increase? ’

Amplification to the point that it is considered ridiculous.

From what I've experienced so far, the system doesn't end with just one benefit.

With the power we've accumulated so far, what would the result be if only a few of these overlap?

If I continue to act as her servant,

‘Indeed.'

You will become stronger with an efficiency you can't compare to when you move alone.

However, there are certain conditions that it is time to fight for the Master.

Most of the conditions will be met if I'm around Rubia.

“Well, I'm walking. Are you next to him?”

Tuck.

Rubia clears out the rocks for her to tread on.

If I take care of everything I need to do secretly and advise her not to rebel against the Imperial Court,

At least not before the war.

Maybe even before the Demon King came.

Will we be able to live in Erastor simply and peacefully?

You don't have to think about it the hard way.

‘Well, that's good. ’

Whether it was the rain last night, the detection skill did not catch a single human traveler.

It was about an hour down the mountain path that smoothed the way for Rubia to pass.

‘That way.'

The second Erast Gate I saw caught my eye.

From a distance, you can see

A small city of size.

You can see two quite gloomy guards sitting on their chairs, vigilant and dry.

Even that gate is not properly closed.

‘What a mess.’

Time the lords didn't even know they were dead.

‘Rather than kill them all.

With a slightly reminded face, I looked at Rubia walking silently on my lips.

Only those who reveal hostility to her can choose to kill.

I'll take care of the rest.
