The Ghoulish Necromancer
Steps In The Dark: 2

Steps In The Dark: 2

Era wanders around to find other humans. Maybe she could speak? she tries to speak. "Aghnawa Haagh" She says in a crude monster voice that sounds like its

merely imitating a human. She meant to say "anyone here" She mutters to herself, "there goes that plan" but it sounds like "Hkheghre Gahs Ghag Skhan". She knew she could use every spell and skill she already had, she tested that. but her stats had also improved since she turned into a ghoul

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every one of her stats increased, and her stamina increased by a lot.

She also got some new skills like [Reap] and [Regeneration]. Her necromancy increased by one level. "Its probably because of me using [Necromance] on myself." She muttered to herself, or if you speak ghoul "Aghs Khabaghly beghas ogh hegh ah" [Speech LVL 1] Gained. Sweet! She could speak now. "Ghyas iagh Ghan Ghomunimaghe" she said. Meh better but still terrible. She could not complain though. She had to find the exit to this dungeon. It was a miracle that she has not even found a monster yet.

After a few good minutes she finally found something, a chest! She ran to it in excitement. The chest, then opened its mouth and jumped at the ghoul. The mimic then took a chunk out of her arm with its maw. Era screamed in pain. And summoned 2 Skeletons to attach the mimic. She did not have time to give them weapons. The two skeleton then rushed to block the mimic from jumping at Era. The mimic jumped at the nearest skeleton. The other skeleton used the

mimics momentum against it with a punch to the side. the mimic hissed at the skeletons and then jumped to the skeleton that punched

it. However a [Shadowbolt] hit it to the side, And then 3 more hit the dazed

and suprised mimic.

[Mimic Level 2 Defeated].

[EXP Gained]

Her wound was bleeding heavily, however Era did not feel as much pain as she normally would. her thinking was cut short by a option

{Use reap?}

[YES] or [NO]

She was confused but she still used reap. Suddenly the mimic shriveled up and Era's wound healed almost instantly.

[Monster: MIMIC added to skill [NECROMANCE] confirm?]

She was confused but pressed confirm. Suddenly she felt a surge of power inside her. Wait? Could she really necromance monsters?!? Only the strongest of necromancers can do that, And even they can only necromance small monsters like Horned rabbits or petrifying lizards. She stopped the wondering about it and used [Necromance] to summon a mimic. A mimic with its wood replaced by rotting flesh, pulsing organs, a decayed tongue that reeked of poison and was probably poisoned, it also had a very sharp set of dirty teeth. It was disgusting, but it listened to

everything she said. so she stopped mana from flowing into it and deleted it.

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

It would be useful someday.

But mimics mean humans, and humans mean entrances. so she ran north to find the

entrance. and she saw a group of 3 people wandering in the dungeon. quickly

she stopped and tried to ask them something "Hagh Waghre Isgh Tagh Eghtrance"

Suddenly she heard 3 screams and a arrow flew by her head.

The man with the sword dashed at Era. His blade glows blue and he slashes at Era with extreme speed. She barely dodges the sword, but then gets hit by a [Weaken] spell. "Crap I need to get that mage first" Era thinks to herself. The warrior slashes at Eras left arm, but she summon 2 skeletons to block the attack and distract the warrior. The skeletons who are armed with shortswords, Light armor, and helmets parry the attack. The warrior then focuses on defending himself from the two skeletons constant slashing. Era wonders why the archer has not shot any more arrows, when suddenly the archer shoots a volley of arrows. Era realises the archer was just chanting magic, and tries to roll out the way of the volley. She successfully does so, but 4 arrows hit her back.

Era screechs in pain "RAEEEEEEEEE". The 3 humans stumble, cancelling the mages spell, making the archer drop the arrow she was about to shoot, and stunning the warrior just long enough for one of the skeletons to sink its shortsword deep into the warriors throat. The warrior uses on last spell to destroy the skeleton but its too late. The warrior drops dead.

[Stunning Screech (LVL 1) Gained!]

She had no time to focus on her new spell. She orders the skeleton to attack

the archer. While the archer is busy fighting the armed skeleton. The mage

Sends out 4 lighting bolts at Era. She quickly summons a zombie mimic. Era

commands the mimic to open its mouth, the 4 lighting bolts enter the mimics

mouth harmlessly. As a mimics stomach is spacial magic and infinite. The

mage jumps back at the necromanced monster. "a-a-A ZOMBIE MONSTER" the mage

screams. The archer quickly kicks the skeleton to distract it and quickly

stares at the mimic. "w-what the fuck, I- I dont even think thats possible".

The mimic jumps at the panicking mage, the mimic easily catches the panicking

mage. "D-DEMON THE GODS WILL PUNISH YOUR SOU-". His ranting was cut short by

the mimic eating his head. The archer gulps in terror knowing her impending

doom. 2 shadowbolts then hit her head. Killing her instantly.

[YES] or [NO]

[Warrior Skeleton Added to [Necromance]

[Ranger Skeleton Added to [Necromance]

[Mage Skeleton Added to [Necromance]

The 3 bodies shrivel up, and Era's wounds are healed. She expected herself to feel disgusted and horrified by the fact that she killed people but she feels nothing. It actually feels natural, the instinct to kill gain exp to level up to kill more rages inside of her. However she does not realise it yet. Her mind becoming a mix of human thought and ghoul instinct.

Era walks away from the place of the fight, realising she wont be able to

pretend to be a human and no one will understand or sympathise with her.

Her only 2 options are to level up [Speech] and wear a hood or just kill

everyone at the entrance and run outside the dungeon into the forest. But then

She would be no better then a wild rabid ghoul. And she cant level up speech

fast enough in a dungeon alone rambling of. even if she does, how will she

hide her face? there's no masks or hoods in dungeon chests. so she makes a plan.

First she grinds up levels until she's strong enough to attack everyone at the

entrance. but she does not kill anyone, just knocks them unconscious or renders

them useless. then she runs out of the entrance into the city, steals a hood

or mask. Level up [Speech] by listening to people talk and practising by herself until she kinda sounds like a human, then she fakes a new identity. She then gets a adventuring license, becomes platinum rank and becomes the strongest necromancer in the world! This is just a small setback, she even already has the necromancing clothes shes wearing right now. With some

[Speech] grinding and a hood she is basically a human. Shes still a bit mad

because she lost her hat but thats ok. She atleast still has her hair. But now

She needs to [LEVEL UP]
