19th Floor, Dungeon…
As soon as Leon, Fruela and Emilia came down to 19th floor… They noticed Rees working on his table with full seriousness.
“That’s Rees… Now, he is a little different from what you have seen so far, just remember that he is not hostile and you don’t have to be afraid of him.” Leon spoke as he looked at Emilia.
“Why ? Is he an angry guy ?” Emilia asked with a confused expression.
“Ah… Mr. Leon, You are back. I will not be-” Rees started speaking as he turned around to look at Leon, but stopped as soon as he looked at Emilia.
*Grab*
As soon as Emilia saw Rees… Her heart started beating faster and she immediately grabbed Leon’s hand.
“W-What is that ?” Emilia asked with a scared expression.
“Who is she ?” Rees asked as he pointed towards Emilia.
“Calm down, Emilia. He is a friend. You don’t have to fear him.” Leon spoke with a neutral expression.
“B-But… He is an undead.” Emilia spoke with a very feared expression.
’Why is she behaving like this ? Even the dark elfs weren’t this afraid of Rees ?’ Leon thought with a confused expression.
“Okay… Let’s move onto the next floor.” Leon spoke as he started walking towards the stairs.
“Mr. Leon… I don’t think, I will be able to accompany you in the search for that necroheart.
I have to go help a friend. Just received his message.” Rees spoke as he showed a small paper to Leon.
All that was written over the paper was ’Help Me, Ikon.’ in a very rough language.
“What does this mean ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
’How the fuck an undead have friends ? Well… It’s a world filled with magic, I guess everything is possible.’ Leon thought for a second then dismissed the thought.
” ’Ikon’ is a secret word that only the two of us know. This means that the danger is really big. I really have to go Mr. Leon.” Rees spoke as he looked at Leon.
“Fine… Go. Try not to die out there.” Leon spoke with a neutral expression.
“I will not and congratulations that your core has evolved… It’s an ’Once in a Lifetime event.’ Very rare.” Rees spoke as he turned around and started walking towards the other stairs.
“Elis… Take him out of the dungeon or he will die by walking up so many floors.” Leon ordered with a smile.
“As you command, Master.” Elis replied as she immediately raised her hand towards Rees and he disappeared.
“You can teleport things around the dungeon without touching them ?” Leon asked with a surprised expression.
“I can do many more things master. I can’t wait to tell you all about it.” Elis replied with a excited smile.
“Oh okay. Let’s go to the last floor and then we will have a talk.” Leon spoke as he started walking down the stairs to the last floor.
Emilia regained her composer and stepped away from Leon.
“I-I am sorry for before. I just don’t like undead monsters, even if they are friendly.” Emilia replied as she looked at Leon.
’Looks like Rees wasn’t the first undead she came across. But, now that Rees is gone… I will have to go and find that necroheart on my own.
Well… it’s been a while since I am just going back and forth to the dungeon and kingdom. A solo adventure will be really good.’ Leon thought with a neutral expression as all four of them reached on the last floor.
…
“Woah…” Leon looked around the last floor and he was left stunned. The last floor of the dungeon was half the size of Vernon Village.
It was so huge that seeing the other wall of the room was very challenging, even from the middle.
The throne that was in the middle of the room, was floating three feet up in the air.
“What the hell ? Elis… I suppose you know that I can’t fly, right ?” Leon asked with a confused expression as he looked at the throne.
’Although I can make a skill for that… Hey, why didn’t I think of that idea before ? I should make a skill for that before I forget the idea.’ Leon thought as he immediately activated the skill.
<Skill Crafter>
[Please pick a name for the skill…]
“Master… Please walk closer to the throne.” Elis spoke with a smile.
“Okay.” Leon replied as he walked closer to the throne and it automatically came down.
“Nice.” Leon spoke with a smile as he immediately sat down on throne and it started floating back into the air.
’I hope you like it, Master.’ Suddenly, Elis’ voice rang inside Leon’s head.
“What ?” Leon spoke in a low voice as he looked at Elis.
’We can contact through magic now master.’ Elis’ voice rang inside his head once again.
’Can you hear me ?’ Leon asked.
’Yes master. I can hear you very clearly.’ Elis replied with a smile.
’This is very good, Elis. Good work.’ Leon thought with a smile.
’Thank you very much master. I hope to serve you even better in the future.’ Elis replied as she bowed down again.
“Hey… Why is she bowing down again and again ? Leon is way over there.” Emilia asked with a confused expression.
“She is showing respect.” Fruela spoke with a neutral expression.
“I-I see.” Emilia replied with a confused expression.
…
“Hah… This feels good, having-” Leon thought with a smile as he looked around the room but before he could’ve completed his sentence, another screen popped up in front of him.
[Please pick a name for the skill…]
’Ah I forgot about this. I will be needing minimum two skills in order to fly, because I can’t make a flying skill directly.
System is smart enough to figure out what I am trying to do. So, I have to make a weight reducing skill first.’ Leon thought with a smile.
“Feather Weight.”
[Skill ’Feather weight’ has been created.]
[Rank has been settled to ’F’ by default.]
[State the use of skill.]
“A minor weight reducing skill that can reduce 1% of user’s total weight using hundred mana for one second.
Skill can be re-casted upto hundred times but the mana consumption will increase by hundred mana on every use and stop there.
The hundreth recast will continue until the skill is stopped manually and mana consumption will go on.”
[Processing….]
’Hmm… If my calculations are correct the 100th cast will consume around 500000 mana, but I don’t care since I am regenerating way more mana.’ Leon thought with a neutral expression.
[Description has been accepted.]
’Veey good.’ Leon thought with a smile.
[Please select the chant for the skill {Feather Weight}.]
“Feather.” Leon spoke with a neutral expression.
[Chant ’Feather’ has been selected.]
’The chant won’t matter that much since I will make a ’Multi-cast skill or Skill combiner’, after this and once I make that.
I will be able to cast more than skills together without taking any penalty on my body. I hope it works.’ Leon thought with a neutral expression as he looked at the floating screen in front of him.
[Estimated mana cost to use the skill has been calculated, 100 mana/recast.]
[Cooldown has been calculated, 40 seconds after every use.]
[Would you like to learn the skill or Destroy it ?]
’Cooldown is good.’ Leon thought with a smile as he immediately learned the skill.
“Learn it.”
[Congratulations ! You have successfully learned the skill {Feather Weight}.]
“Leo… Is that you ?” Suddenly, Elaine’s voice came from below.
Leon slowly turned his head to the side and noticed, Elaine and Selene standing under the throne and looking at him with a smile.
“Down.” Leon spoke and the throne immediately started moving down.
*Thud*
As soon as the throne touched the ground, Leon noticed Emilia looking at Elaine with a smile.
“So… You are his mother huh ? I am Emilia.” Emilia spoke as she immediately raised a hand for handshake.
“Yes, I am Elaine. It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Elaine spoke as she Shaked hands with Elaine.
“Those clothes are expensive and not just expensive. There is a purple flower on the neck of that blouse… Oh my god, that’s the most expensive blouse ’The Revera Bodice.’” Selene spoke with a shocked expression as she immediately walked upto Emilia.
*Sniff-Sniff*
She started sniffing Emilia like a dog and a suspicious expression appeared over her face.
“You are smelling like flowers too. Your skin is too smooth and these big boobs are also really squishy.” Selene spoke as she immediately grabbed Emilia’s boobs from behind.
“Anhhh~ M-Mr. Leon… What is this girl doing to me ?” Emilia asked as she immediately stepped aside.
“I was actually enjoying that for a second. Look Selene… She is a guest here and you can’t do that to her. Now apologize.” Leon spoke with a neutral expression.
“Hmm… Why do I get the feeling that you have kidnapped her from a noble household ?” Selene spoke with a serious expression as she looked at Leon.
“Eh…?”
