《Evolution of the Skeleton who walked alone in a Dungeon》Chapter 0003{Level Up-II}
Advertisement
I headed back to the cave with the two corpses, which were incredibly hard to carry.
I separated the wolf's fur and the remaining flesh and then washed the nearby lake’s skin.
The furs color was a mix of blue and black. I used it to cover my middle layers of bones from the shoulders to the legs.
I also divided the remaining corpse into parts. Then I used it to lure the rats.
They gathered around the bait. After that, I would use a fireball to get rid of all of the rats at once.

I went on to hunting rats. Then the parent rat appeared. It was four times the size of the normal rats.
“Appraisal”
Skill Evolution: [Appraisal level 3]
Race: Monster Rat
Parents of the rats found in the lower levels of dungeons. It is known for its speed and its charge.
HP:50/270
Strength:15
Agility:40
Since the appraisal level increased, it showed me more information than before. I was surprised to see that its HP was already this low.
I saw that it had just given birth. It was in a weak state. It charged toward me with high speed and struck me.
It was faster than me, so I wasn’t able to dodge. I tried blocking it with my hands, but it pushed me a few steps back.
I stretched my hands out and tried to use gravity control, but it moved in random patterns so that I couldn’t get a hold of it. I tried to think of the best way to deal with this situation while hitting it with a fireball.
A solution came to my mind. I ran towards the place it had given birth to the infant rats.

I saw the place, and I located its infants. The parent rat also noticed that and ran straight towards me.
However, that gave me an opening to strike it. I used fireball, and as the path was straight, the rat got hit and fell to the ground.
It was on its last remaining HP. I used my spear to end its life as I was already low on Magic.

I headed towards the location of the newborn rats. Over 20-50 rats were resting in the nest.
I had to improve my skills, so I used fireball, the nest burnt up and slowly killed them.

I see it now. I am beginning to understand how the leveling works. The level relies more on the number of kills rather than merely their level; however, since I had got additional level up’s when I killed the monster rats' parents, it seems level also matters but not as much as numbers. I am still unsure of how this works but guess I will figure out more about it along the way
They might have been low in level, but thanks to their numbers, it seems I leveled up quite a bit.

Class Available: [Fire Mage] [Water Mage] [Dark Mage]
I used appraisal to see what merits the classes had.
[Fire Mage: -Greater affinity towards the fire and consumes less magic when using fire spells.]
[Water Mage: - Greater affinity towards the water and consumes less magic when using water spells].
[Dark Mage: - Provides stealth and increases all stats in the absence of light.]
The dark mage seemed perfect for me as the dungeon had little to no light.
As I was about to choose a class, I heard a violent sound from behind me.
It seemed to be the male parent of the rats. It started violently charging towards me and struck me too.
I had Physical Damage Resistance, so it did little damage to me. However, it kept striking me.
I tried to strike back with my spear, but it was too fast and would use the opening created to deal with a fatal blow.
Skill Evolution: [Physical Damage Resistance level 2]
Skill Evolution: [Physical Damage Resistance level 3]
I kept taking damage, but so did my resistance keeps increasing, however now I had a small amount of HP left.
I decided to take a gamble and threw away my spear. I observed when its next attack would be.
I showed an opening on my right side to lure it, and it tried to attack there.
However, I turned towards it. It would have reached me before I could use fireball, so I decided to take the hit.
After it struck me with its head, I had just 10 HP remaining. However, I used this chance to grab it with my two arms, and I used a fireball.
As I was holding the rat, I also received the damage from the fireball.

I leaned into the wall and sat down in relief as I survived. I remembered that I had gotten a new class to choose from. So, I decided Dark Mage while lying down.

New skill [Dark Amplification level1] learned.

How am I Supposed to Save This World with No Power?
Wu Li was but a student trapped in a future he did not want when the Portal sought him out to become the Savior of an entire world. However, unlike any beings born in that world, Wu has not a single ounce of power within his body. Worse yet, he's the fourth one that's been summoned in history and he's got massive shoes to fill. How will he overcome his own powerlessness and become the savior that everyone expects him to be? With a beautiful girl acting as his slightly disappointed yet adorable guardian, a smoking hot rivalling bounty hunter from the High societies out to take his head, and countless other encounters along the way, Wu fights on to become the greatest of the four saviors, while seeding this world with...the principles of science. This is a story set in a world with a rich history of the magic power known as the Wave, and all native species are capable of interacting with the Wave to obtain power in a variety of ways. Think of this as a combination of Dr Stone and Black Clover! I am writing this story using similar structures to anime seasons, and the chapters in itself are structured more like manga chapters. The first two seasons are already planned out, and it is likely going to be daily upload (12 noon EST) of chapters from ~ 2 k words in length during the 'season' when there is backlog of chapters, with a week or two of a break in between seasons if no backlog. If you liked this story, please drop a rating and review. If you hated it, please drop a review and help me get better. Don't just spam a 0.5 rating and leave like a coward lol.
8 807Maker of Fire
On a world where magic kept civilization firmly in the bronze age, the Gods dropped an accountant and a mining engineer to start a political and industrial revolution. They wanted enlightened governance and a fast track to the iron age. They got indoor plumbing, paper airplanes, a cranky queen, and one very grumpy prophet. Dramatis Personae Aylem was a bookkeeping student when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as the greatest mage ever known, born into the ruling class of gigantic, magic-wielding humans. The Gods expect her to conquer the world and introduce double-entry accounting. Though Queen and numerical reformer, world conquest is stalled because everyone is scared of her and she doesn't like war. Emily was a retired engineer when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as one of the enslaved class of small, magicless humans. The Gods expect her to drag the world out of the bronze age. Though she's already recreated matches and wrought iron, introducing technology isn't going well because she was born a slave (oops) and having escaped, wants nothing to do with so-called "civilization." Asgotl was a whale when he died. The Gods reincarnated him as a griffin and expect him to have the same role he played in his previous life: to keep a reluctant prophet from walking off the job. If only they had remembered to tell him about it. Revised update schedule will be once a week on Saturdays, noonish Mountain Time (in North America)

[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Photo by Mae Mu on Unsplash -------------------------- This is my first story on Royal Road and my first attempt in general at writing Xianxia. As such I expect that it will need a lot of polish to get it to its final form, but for now I hope to keep up with NaNoWriMo and get something on the page. Until then I welcome comments and constructive criticism. Thanks for reading.
