As i walked in i heard a loud roar nearby so i rushed into the dungeon the first few rooms were just like skeletons, then I moved into the 5th room and almost got my head shot off but the nanites moved my head out of the way, I looked in the direction of where the arrow came from and saw a four armed skeleton on the roof of the stone room, I rushed forward to try to get closer to the skeleton but some more fell from the roof but they had swords so I had to be careful since I couldn't just take a hit from a sword, the three skeletons moved in unison to attack me so I used some magic, I had been experimenting with trying to use mana since the Nanites knew it existed in the world the only issue is my body can't naturally use it so Rogue Processes the Nanites have to be the ones to use them so I have to use my blood to use magic but it can become any type of magic I think, but ill use fire, I stabed into my hand and blood driped down to the floor covering it slightly then I backed away my hand was already fully healed from the slight stab, when the skeletons stepped into the blood I told the rogue Processes to activate and they all turned into fire mana burning the skeletons, then the remaining Nanites on the skeletons systhesied how to raise the undead "damn so my blood is strong" I then told the Rogue processes Nanites that were still on the skeletons to send their data to the main group and then to turn into lightning Mana, two of the three skeletons died and then for the final one I moved in with my sword to kill it, I had to block a few attacks and then I had to stab the small red orb in its center "so that's their weakness" I then ran up the small flight of stairs to go get to the one on the ceiling still shooting but I had a plan, when I got close to it I stabed myself in the hand again and then threw my blood up to the ceiling it hit the skeleton and then I told the Rogue processes to stab and destroy the red orb of the skeleton, and they did that seconds after I gave the command the skeleton fell to the floor and his bones exploded, I then looked around for an exit to the room, I found it and the next room was strange it had a giant dome it almost looked like a cathedral, I walked around "this would make a cool home" there were no skeletons or anything in the room, I found a long abandoned torch and lit it with my blood, I then set it in one of the holders, I then sat down and looked around "yea this place would make a great base" I had decided to make this my home, I looked around and found a small vault room that had nothing but dust a cobwebs, "wish Luna was here to see this" I walked out of the stone room and to the staircase near the exit to the room, I walked up the stairs and around the edge of the railing eventually I got to a connection point where there were multiple skeletons, and a throne "what the hell happened here" I walked up to the thrown and found a single dust rusty ring there "hey Rogue can you check this ring before I put it on as to know if its cursed or something, and can you restore it" I cut my finger tip and let the blood leak onto the ring and after a few seconds Rogue Processes responded 'this ring has a complex spell weaved into it but its basic function is to let the user use a rewind spell' "can you synthesis the spell from the ring or is it not possible" the rogue Processes took a few seconds to respond 'i could get the basic mana type out of it but then the spell wont work' I picked up the ring that now was silvery and had a dark purple gem in the middle of it, I put it on my tiny finger, I then saw a vision of the past and what happened here and then as if speaking to me one of the people said who ever finds this ring now owns this building, I was on the ground and was now confused, I stumbled out of the ruins and heard the same roar just much much closer, I stumbled into the village and walked to the adventures guild, and got my money for the completed mission my proof the ring they wanted to take it but I didn't let them, I then walked to my room and found another note from Luna saying that she would return to me when she can beat the giant golden bear, I let out a sigh and walked threw the town where I found the slave trader and I decided to actually get another friend, just this time they would actually be a slave but I could just get the Rogue processes to remove the Slave seal, I walked in and he greeted me "I knew you would be back" I looked at him "well fighting out there is getting ruff for me" he then said "I am the Shadow dealer" he extended his hand "I'm Michal Java" I took his hand and shook it, he led me down a hall and showed me some strong looking demi humans and other creatures but I was looking for a demi human he then showed me to some of the weaker and or sick ones, I found one that by looks was from the Fox clan that Luna was also from "I'll take that one" he seemed interested in why "why do you want a sick demi human fox" I answered simply "I prefer ones from the fox clan that is in the woods and she looks like she is from them" he nodded "well you get a discount since she is sick, so it will be 4 silver flat" I nodded and handed him 4 silver then said "do you know what she is sick with" he nodded "its a common disease so you can buy the medicine from the store around here or you could buy it from me for 50 copper coins" I sighed and handed him the 50 copper coins, "I trust that you know the disease" he nodded and opened the cage and the girl who looked to be 16 she didn't even have the strength to lift herself so I picked her up and carried her to where the Shadow dealer indicated, he handed me some meds and then said "you'll have to give her one every day for probably a week, if she survives" I nodded and took the pills and left I brought her to my room at the inn and set her down on the spare bed and went and got some water for her and then returned when I returned I found that Luna was in the room she seemed sad, disappointed and calm, how she was all of that I don't know she said "why did you buy a slave" I sighed "because its easier than making friends and she needs help she would've died in there" I pulled out the medicine "I intend to help her get back to strength and figure out a way to remove the slave seal" she nodded "well I've got to get back to trying to get stronger" I grabbed her arm "if you ever need to rest I cleared a dungeon and will be moving into it after I help her get better" I then handed her a small map for where it was "you can send trust worth people there, i will try my best to feed them" she nodded and i released my grip, then i walked over to the unknown fox girl and lifted her head and gave her some water "ok do you think you can eat some soup" i brought a soup bowl towards her she drank it, i then grabbed one of the pills and she swallowed the pill, i then went to sleep.
