I opened the door and entered the room.
----------------------------------------
[You have entered the boss room]
----------------------------------------
“Urmuk.”
This time there were only two of us.
We went ahead, and there was a throne.
A rusted skeleton sat on that throne.
“Appraisal”
----------------------------------------
Race: Lich
A powerful magician skilled in necromancy. They are depicted as being clearly cadaverous bodies, desiccated or completely skeletal. Liches are often depicted as holding power over hordes of lesser undead creatures, using them as soldiers and servants. Unlike zombies, which are often described as mindless, a lich is sapient, retaining independent thought and being as intelligent as before its transformation.
Level: 75
HP: 2000/2000
MP: 18000/18000
Strength: 120
Defence: 120
Agility: 90
----------------------------------------
The lich slowly stood up with its slow movements.
“After all these years, I expected I would finally have a fresh new body, but what do I see here an undead skeleton and orc! How disappointing, but those fresh bones would be much more capable than these rusty ones.”
“Now come here little one and handover your body!!!”
“Why don’t you try and see whether you can take it or not?”
“A little peasant trying to disobey this lord?! YOU, YOU, YOU need to be punished!”
The temperature in the room suddenly started dropping, and undead began to emerge from the ground.
I sent Urmuk to deal with the undead while I headed towards the lich.
I used Gravity Manipulation and tried to crush it.
It struck its staff into the ground and canceled my spell.
I took out my sword and used gravity manipulation to make my body lighter.
The lich had started to create a red circle in the center of its body.
No matter what spell it was trying to cast, I didn’t want to give it any more time.
I rushed towards it and used my sword to completely slice it horizontally. It was a hit.
“Hehe, you know, this is why I love peasants, they never bother analyzing anything and come straight for me, that makes my task way easier.”
I was pretty sure I had sliced the lich, but the one whose bones were cut were mine, the armor was still intact and had no sign of receiving damage however my bones were even sliced inside the armor.
“It’s called the red moon; it can reflect back any kind of damage the user receives back to the opponent. Pretty interesting, isn’t it?”
I was unable to move.
The lich was heading towards me.
I used Deconstruct and Reconstruct to create walls in front of me and used Morpheus to generate a shield to cover me. I had to wait until my body recovered.
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
“Now, now, why are you hiding behind a shell? There is no need to be afraid!”
The lich froze the entire room, even my shield was frozen to the point that all it took was one strike from its finger for it to break.
“Fire………...”
As I stretched out my hand to use fire control, my entire body had already frozen.
It stretched out its hand and grabbed my skull
“Finally, now this body shall be mine!!!!!!!!!!”
Now, as the body of the lich was nothing but an empty husk, it broke into tiny pieces.
The ice around my body broke.
“Now what a wonderful body I obtained and the skill it possesses now soon…….”

“What was that? The lich nearly took over my body.”
“I guess I somehow survived.”
My body was still not fully healed.
----------------------------------------
Skill Evolution: [Regeneration level4]
----------------------------------------
The lich’s body had turned into dust, to beyond the point of being able to turn it into an undead.
I walked around with Urmuk providing me support.
I headed towards the now empty throne.
To my surprise, the throne still looked new. It even hadn’t rusted.
I touched the throne; it was made from some kind of hard alloy.
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
After seeing how durable the metal was, I accepted.
----------------------------------------
[Morpheus entered the evolving phase]
[The better the materials provided, the better the end product]
----------------------------------------
My body was now fully healed.
It was now time for me to enter the next floor.
I opened the door.
It was a windy place as there was an ongoing blizzard.
I was standing in a forest, and the snow was lying everywhere.
An arrow came straight toward me. I caught it with my bare hands.
“Fufufu, just like that old woman predicated, there were invaders over here.”
They were ice elves. They had a savage look on their faces.
It also looked like they were carrying a few female slaves.
They seemed to have bows as their primary weapon.
Unlike the orcs, I did not feel even a bit of sympathy for them.
They were 10 in number.
I created an ice spike using ice creation and threw it right toward them.
They made the slaves create an ice wall.
But it turned out to be ineffective.
I was sure I got all of them, but two of them seemed to have survived.
They used their own kind as a shield to block the ice I threw at them.
“Not just slaves, but you even used the normal ones as your shield,” I said
“Fufufu, of course! I am a higher noble, so it should be their honor to die for me.”, the elf had a sinister look on his face
I had finally realized why I felt no sympathy towards them.
