Chapter 10: Out Of The Graveyard!

-----

…

[Dark Gale: Lv1]

Charge Mana and release a mighty gale of dark winds towards a target, it is not as intense as Dark Sphere, but it can cut through things more sharply and precisely. It can also be used to generate a strong shockwave of winds.

…

[Shadow Sneak: Lv1]

The characteristic Skill of Assassins, Thieves, Rogues, and other Shadow Creatures. By spending Mana, you shroud yourself in shadows and hide within them, although your mass is not merged with the shadows. But if this is used by something without a physical body, a full fusion into the shadows can be done. Consumes mana constantly.

…

I glanced at the information of my two new abilities as I grew eager to try them out. However, the Shadow Sneak requirement of needing mana constantly really threw me off. I guess I cannot abuse it for now and become invisible in the darkness of the night or something… And Dark Gale seems like an excellent attack method. It costs less than Dark Sphere, and it can slice through things more precisely, but it also lacks as much firepower as the cannonball-like potency of Dark Sphere… so there’s that.

“Phew, now that we are done and evolved, what should we do? Ah, let’s try to sneak out of the graveyard, I guess. I mean, we are more than halfway through the gates already,” I said.

*Crackle!*

With a very loyal skeleton at my side, I decided to move forward through the night. Several hours had gone by since I was reborn as a Ghost, so I think that the sun might emerge soon enough.

We have to get out of here and see the outside world before that! We sneaked through the graveyard, and on the way, we barely found wisps flying around, and if we did catch sight of them, they would be very far away from us. We also found that it would be useless to waste time and mana into chasing them down, so we ignored them as we pushed forward.

After almost an hour, we finally reached the gates of the graveyard. It was a very tough rack, and it even seemed to be… magically enhanced? It had something resembling drawings on it… runes of some sort… which gave it some magical potency. I would guess that such a thing is what gives them this strength. I mean, I try to touch them, and there is also this invisible wall that doesn’t let me get out. It is very annoying. However, this only applies to the walls and gates.

“Hmm… Come here, Partner.”

I decided to use Possession on Partner, who didn’t resist, as we fused into one! And using such fusion, I used my natural floating ability to slowly carry her above the gate.

Very Slooowly…

As we reached above the gates, the invisible wall was no longer present, and then, we reached the outside.

Bump!

We reached the surface with a spectacular jump as I separated myself from Partner. Using possession also consumes mana constantly if the entity I am possessing is “alive”. This also applies to the undead, it seems.  After becoming an undead, I suppose she stopped just being a pile of bones.

What greeted us at the outside world was a beautiful dark forest filled with phantasmal presences within… It was spooky. But not really. The trees looked like pine trees, but they were way bigger and a bit darker. And as I analyzed things out, I noticed the entire forest surrounded this graveyard. It was really isolated from everywhere else.

Oh, and yeah, there was this presence, with the same magical essence that had filled the graveyard and awakened all the Wisps, Ghosts, and the like, which I didn’t seem to have come across. Perhaps there were more ghosts on the other side of the graveyard, which I didn’t manage to inspect.

There was also this strange voice that had stopped talking into my head, which somehow had some relation to this energy… I could feel it. And the presence was… right in front of us.

There was a long dirt road in front of the gate, and I am guessing that through it, carriages come to put more coffins into the graveyard. And the presence was coming right from this road.

I couldn’t satiate my curiosity, so I decided to hide within the large trees as I followed this strong presence of pure magic with Partner at my side.

“Partner, what do you think it might be?” I wondered out loud.

*Rattle*

“Yeah, maybe it is really a Necromancer or something?”

We continued to pass through the forest until we found that the magical essence did a sudden turn and reached the other side of the road… We quickly crossed the road sneakily before we arrived at the other side of the forest and continued to follow the presence.

It was getting a bit brighter; the sun might soon arise. I really hope the sunlight or something doesn’t purify me…

Suddenly, the presence got stronger, to the point that it was even more alluring.

Ah… Wait, what?

I just realized it, but we had been following this presence way too happily. Why is it? Is it because it seems “alluring” to us? As we are Undead? Undead seem to crave mana above all things… However, it is too late to turn back because what we found in front of us was the entrance to an underground dungeon.

The floor suddenly became paved with gray and dark blue bricks, which led downstairs into the depths of darkness. I used Analyze on this and…

[Dungeon Entrance] [Dungeon Rank: Unknown] [Dungeon State: Recently Opened]

“It really is a dungeon…”

And the moment I analyzed it, the voice once more spoke to me.

“Ah! The first ones are finally here! Eh? It’s you, the insolent one that spoke back to me… Well, whatever, come down!”

“Eh? Who are you?”

The voice just spoke to me through my mind, as if it were telepathy or something.

“Who am I? I am your creator, of course! Come meet me downstairs! I-I am very lonely, you know?”

“Lonely? Can you tell me who you are at the very least?” I sighed.

“I am… Well, let’s say I am a Fallen Dragon...”

“That’s not normal at all!”
