We are not going to be on Bladeheart's point of view this time around but to the skeleton that he just summoned. It was just born from this world, and it barely even grasps a single thing happening around it. Then, someone gave it a sword and a bucket. It didn't understand what these things were at first but soon, it realized what it was.

These are weapons to kill. The moment the clueless skeleton held the sword and the buckler, it soon allowed some memories that are clearly not the memory of the skeleton to gather inside the clueless skeleton. It was like the sword and buckler had memory on their own and all of them are transferred to the skeleton's skull. And even without a brain, it seems to be imprinted directly on the body of the skeleton that even without that organ, it doesn't have any problem fighting against anything.

"Go and kill some monsters. Once you are done, come back to me."

The moment the skeleton heard the command, something seems to have awakened inside of it and its eyes lit up. It didn't waste a single second and turned around to find a monster it can clobber. It didn't take that long for the skeleton to find an enemy. It looks like a polar bear but it has some blue spikes on its back that looks like icicles upon closer inspection.

Since the skeleton has no organs let alone any kind of muscles and anything that would make it human, it doesn't feel scared, nor does it feel any kind of emotions, it is just facing the enemy, looking for a chance to find its weak points and weakness.

The first thing the skeleton did is pick up a small pebble and throw it at the bear. The pebble hit and the bear seem to feel the pain of the small pebble immediately since the moment the pebble bounced back, the bear stood up and growled. It didn't even hesitate and charged straight to the skeleton.

The little skeleton seems to have already anticipated the move the bear will do and immediately dodge before stabbing one of its legs with the crude sword. Of course, with the crude sword being too crude and dull, it didn't do anything to the bear's skin and it just bounced back. The skeleton already noticed it so it quickly backs away from the rampaging bear and used its shield to its advantage in the fight.

With the skeleton dodging successfully, the bear became angrier and it grabbed one of the ice spikes on its back and throws it at the skeleton. Compared to the size of the icicle and the skeleton, the icicle is much bigger and if the skeleton is hit, it wouldn't even take a second chance before the poor skeleton will be broken to pieces if hit.

Still, even though the skeleton is just pure bones and nothing else, it was too agile allowing it to just dodge effectively and run around the bear. It took advantage of the places around the area where the two are fighting and instead of confronting it head-on. the skeleton made the bear get provoked by throwing it rocks every time it misses an attack on the skeleton.

That alone made the bear really infuriated to the point that it will immediately charge with just one slight movement in the nearest area. In short, the skeleton already got the bear under its control by taking advantage of the behavior of the bear and using it to fight back. Whenever the bear is facing on another direction, the skeleton would attack the bear using the crude sword and even though the sword doesn't do anything to the bear at all due to how dull and crude it was, the bear is easily agitated is easily taken captive in this tactic and were forced to respond to its attacks.

From time to time, the bear will throw one of its ice spikes on its back and throw it at the skeleton which the latter will immediately evade in quick succession. This resulted in the battlefield being littered with the icicles that the bear has thrown. Since it does not melt, it just remained there for the entire time.

Soon, the bear has enough of throwing the icicles and decided to observe the surroundings. Seeing the changes in behavior, the skeleton immediately used this chance to do something for it to properly defeat the bear. In one of the hiding spots the skeletons, the skeleton itself exposed itself and provoked the bear again.

This time, the skeleton did not dodge, but just stood there. The bear, being an angry animal, immediately charges forward with a loud growl.

STAB!

But the charging bear stops and it took a bit of time before it fell to the ground with its life on the line. Bladeheart found it amazing while Sigma found it shocking to see a skeleton do some tactics and successfully subdue it.

Bladeheart finds it satisfying and excellent to see how the skeleton performed in the battle. As for the skeleton, it walked toward the bear with the crude sword in its bone hand, it raised the crude sword and stabs it into the bear's eyes forcefully. No matter how crude or dull a sword is, as long as it was being stabbed at a very soft part of the body, it will become a very lethal weapon.

And that single stab, allowed the skeleton to win in the end. It raised its sword in the air and its mouth started making a "clacking sound", celebrating its win against a strong and almost close to impossible to defeat kind of foe.

The reason the bear was easily killed is because of how it charges and when it did, instead of ramming into the usual areas it rams around, the last thing it rammed is the sharp area of the icicle it has thrown. The skeleton took advantage of that and used it against the bear, incapacitating the bear as a result and allowing the skeleton to finally get the final blow.

Since the skeleton won, the skeleton returned triumphantly. And that single battle alone, something awakened inside the skeleton. Some kind of feeling it didn't understand at first but the skeleton didn't find it annoying. It was like the skeleton felt a lot more "alive". Yes, the skeleton is not alive but that alone made the skeleton find a good reason to continue living.

"I didn't expect to have a good skeleton in one summon. That alone is quite an unexpected gain. I even gave it purposely a crude sword and shield how well it will fight but to think it has this much capability is something else. This skeleton will become one of the strongest skeletons if equipped properly. And that is something I will not waste," Bladeheart then pulled out a few weapons out of its inventory and let the skeleton grab what it wanted to get, and to Bladeheart's surprise, the skeleton throw away the sword and shield and grab the katana and swings it around, testing its blade like a real samurai testing the quality and how heavy it will be.

"CLACK CLACK CLACK!"

The skeleton turned to look at Bladeheart and showed the katana to Bladeheart and keeps on pushing it toward him.

"You wanted to use it? Then go ahead and use it. I purposely allowed you to choose so go and have a go with it."

The skeleton made the same "clacking sounds" again like it was very happy with the decision and its eyes lit up like something has been ignited inside of it after the skeleton was allowed to wield the katana.

The skeleton dashes towards the distance and provokes another of the bear and Bladeheart and Sigma didn't expect it to go ahead and test it out even without the orders coming from Bladeheart himself.

With the katana, it didn't use the same tactic as before but used the blade of it properly. The other bear is the same behavior as the other bear that was killed with the smarts of the skeleton so right now, it seems the skeleton already memorized what to do next.

Compared to the "run and gun" tactic earlier, the skeleton did not do that and wielded the katana like a proper swordsman. The stance is now in the iaido stance and waited for the bear to come and charge forward, it remained in that stance.

In this case, the bear is not similar to the first one as it didn't charge immediately and instead used its spikes and throws them at the skeleton in rapid succession.

But the skeleton did not dodge, nor did it make a single step to avoid the attack. It just stood there with the sword still sheathed. But the moment the icicles are about to hit, they were immediately split into two.

That action alone, caused Bladeheart to grin. It seems like the skeleton he summoned is just oozing with potential and he can't afford to let that go.
