《Netheril’s Glory 》Chapter 19: The Roar of the Undead.
Advertisement
The skeleton warrior with the long sword moved more than five meters just after two steps. Punk only saw a black afterimage passing in the air, but again the undead was in front of the Punk in the next second. It raised the long sword high, which was enveloped with grey death energy. The undead skeleton was about to slash at the Punk, but Punk's next spell was already completed; He skillfully released the apprentice-level summoning spells "Beasts summoning."
A huge brown bear that has been constructed in the mind palace came out from the spell's magical array, blooming with brilliance. Effectively blocking the path of the skeleton warrior's charge.
The enormous brown bear with a height of three meters had a thick fur coat. It seemed like it will not buzz even if it was hit by a cannonball.
It also had fangs shining with cold light, sharp claws, and massive muscles, which can even be seen through its skin's outline. Its appearance was very savage and brutal; it also roared loudly when it appeared to establish its majesty.
Although the undead skeleton warrior had some muscle memories leftover from his original body, the low soul-level and wisdom hindered its body's reaction speed. Because of this, its hands and feet were not well coordinated. When it saw a giant monster suddenly appeared in front of him, it was actually stunned for a moment and hit the summoned bear without any pause, causing it to retreated backward afterward at high speed because of the bouncing force.
And finally, after a few involuntary summersault, it fell to the ground.
When the summoned giant bear saw its prey fall to the ground, it roared in excitement, then it was about to rush forward to land the final blow, but Punk hurriedly gave it an order to stop,
"Can't you see how many undeads are over there? Are you not afraid because of your hasty final hit? You will fail to earn the main achievement! (TL Note: Reference from LoL)" Punk was sincerely worried about the IQ of this summoned creature.

If there is no instruction from the summoner, it will act according to instinct. So although it was a high-quality meat shield, it was definitely not a reliable helper.
Punk again released a "secondary catapult" toward the skeleton warrior, who felled on the ground. This time, the skeleton, who had just sat up from the ground and was still confused, could not escape the spell again.
The catapult spell's flying stone accurately penetrated into the undead warrior's skull with the help of the system's aim correction. The low-level soul flames that had lost the skulls' protection were quickly extinguished. The death aura that was lingering around the long sword also dissipated promptly without a trace, and the undead warrior had once again become an immobile bone frame.
On the other side, the female priest used holy light to restrain the undead warrior, formed a gorgeous little hammer, and started to smash it from all directions. Soon the skeleton warrior's body, which was as tough as iron, became a pile of bones.
But simultaneously, the armor on the skeleton warrior's body also became uneven due to the repeated hits from the war hammer, which made Punk very distressed.
The armor that was being destroyed by the lady priest was clearly beckoning gold coins. Now, those armors were distorted so badly that they can only be recycled as raw materials. And the raw materials have only one-fifth of the value of a complete armor.
" This Prodigal bitch!" Punk can only gnash his teeth at the violent behavior of this female priest. Punk, who has always believed that "waste is a crime," now had to watch the female priest who was committing countless crimes in the name of "purifying all evil." Punk's heart was filled with resentment.
But soon, Punk didn't have time to get angry anymore; because the skeleton warrior was obviously unwilling to die like this.

When the soul inside the broken skull of this skeleton warrior was about to be purified by the holy light from the war hammer,
The soul flame, which became very dim and was swaying like a candle in the wind, suddenly burst in a blinding bright green brilliance.
Although not audible, but the roar that can be clearly sensed by the soul was transmitted from the skeleton warrior's soul.
The despair and anger contained in that final soul fluctuations instantly resonated among the undeads throughout the forest.
The undead was such a creature that, sometimes, the fierceness within them was not inferior to the devil from that endless abyss, sometimes they have incredible unity and cooperation,
and now, the roar of the dying undead triggered this instinct amongst all the undeads in this entire forest.
The green light in their eye sockets started to glow more vigorously, and hundreds of undead together burst out in anger with a wave of soul fluctuation,
which directly hit the soul. The soul fluctuation even made Punk feel a kind of deafening illusion at the spiritual level.
A large number of undeads turned their heads one after another, staring straight at the Punk and priest with glowing green hollow eyes, and the whole forest became silent for a while.
But as the first undead roared and started to rush towards the priest lady, all the undead began to move forward, and they launched a march towards them.
" I will be taking my leave for now, but this is definitely not the end. I, Irene, swears under the witness of the God of light, I will definitely come back to purify these evil undeads"!
Seeing that many undead led by the four skeleton warriors slowly began to surround Punk and herself,
The female priest finally dispelled the idea of attacking and decided to temporarily retreat.
But things didn't go as smoothly as the lady pastor planned.
"My brave Miss pastor, as a believer in the God of Light, how can you shrink from the evil? Let me help you stand firmly on the front line in the fight against evil." Just when the female priest decided to turn and leave, she heard Punk's voice, which seemed to have come from the deepest part of hell, then suddenly, a large number of vines suddenly protruded from the ground and firmly bound the priest's ankle.
"You crazy heretic…....." the priest stumbled as she was pulled by the vines. Although she freed herself just after a few seconds, it was too late; a level 3 skeleton warrior was already close to the priest.
The female priest had to activate a divine defensive magic spell on her enchanted robe to block.
She could not believe that Punk would trouble her in such a crisis, but when she saw Punk, whose face was half covered in the shadow of the hood, the unbelievable expression on her face immediately turned into surprise and then quickly turned into anger.
At this time, Punk and his summoned brown bear were covered in undead aura without a trace of life energy fluctuations. The aura of a mage that was so clear just a few moments ago has long disappeared. Because of this, no undead approached Punk; all the undead rushed toward the priest in a swarm; not even a single skeleton stayed near Punk.
"Apprentice-level conjuration spells-breath disguise,
it really deserves the title of best disguise spell under trainee level!" A sly smile hung on the corner of the Punk's mouth,
and his figure in the gloomy enchanted robe became eerier than the undeads next to him. The big brown bear couldn't help but shrink its head after looking at its summoner and stayed motionless.

A Spirit Vein's Guide to Immortality
TL;DR Synopsis: Man dies from falling banana, gets interrogated but answers vaguely, suffers consequences Actual synopsis: Spirit veins. Many consider them to be the pillar on which the world of cultivation is built. These things served as the foundation for the first few realms that would allow humanity to achieve its everlasting dream of immortality. However, in the present age, these pockets of condensed energy only exist to be under the foundations of massive organizations, fostering a new generation of fighters while passively radiating the energy they contain. Nevertheless, spirit veins are still an important element in the world of cultivation, albeit much less so. With that in mind, have you ever considered what it would be like for someone to turn into a spirit vein? No? Well, Arthur never thought about it either. Going through the usual reincarnation schtick (if one could consider it usual), Arthur was eventually brought into a place where a god asked him where he would like to be reborn. Unsurprisingly, Arthur told the god his ideal rebirth. However, soon enough, he would come to realize that he should have been more specific with it. Now being reborn as the smallest spirit vein, or if you could even consider him a spirit vein, Arthur wondered what he could do other than wait for time to consume him…and that’s where the system came in. With it, he would experience multiple stories of hardships, adventure, romance, and action…all underground. Unless…? Do keep in mind that English is not my first language, so I would like to apologize in advance if there are any grammatical errors, typos, miscalculations and so on. In fact, I'd highly appreciate it if you tell me those mistakes. Also, this story focuses quite a lot on the gradual progression of the MC at the beginning, but in the long run, upgrading sprees would probably be more common. Thanks for reading this small note!

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
