《Evolution of the Skeleton who walked alone in a Dungeon》Chapter 0025{Decision-II}

We went to the vampire’s house and rested there.
“Are you okay?”, Lazarus asked
“Yep, my body has nearly fully recovered,” I replied
“Were you able to create the stone?”, Lazarus asked
“No, it was a complete failure, but the surprising thing was the high elf survived, I created that spell using all the mana that was collected, yet somehow, he was able to survive, did any of you see what happened?”
“Yes, I saw it, he used this ring and took some things out which reduced the impact of the blast,” crimson said that while she was playing with that ring.
“It must be a spatial ring, and why are you playing with it, it could have some precious things and wait when did you even take that.”, I asked in surprise
After giving me an icy stare, she said, “I was not playing with it I was trying to open it, and I took it when I killed him”
“You killed him to save me, right? Not to take the ring?” I demanded an answer
The avoidance of eye contact made me realize that was not the case.
“Let me have a look at the ring, maybe I can open it.”
It was a spatial ring and had some kind of seal, but that wasn’t too hard for me, I reconstructed it this time, removing the seal.
Inside there, barely anything was left except for a wand and a letter.
The surprising thing was, the wand was made up of a middle-grade mana stone. If it was still left, that would have meant that the high elf sacrificed even better tools to survive. It was such a waste.
But with it now, I could restore some of the Lazarus power.
I used the stone to amplify my MP for a bit.

[Completion failed: Only one fang Restored]
“Finally, I can feel some of my powers returning.”, Lazarus exclaimed in joy
As most of the vampire’s power lied in their fangs, it required an incredible amount of mana, even with a middle-grade mana stone combined with my own mana, it was not enough.
Crimson opened the letter and started to read it.
She gave the letter a blank stare.
“What does it say?” I asked
She gave it to me. It was written in an elvish language, and it seems she could not read the language. As I had just killed the elves, their basic knowledge passed onto me, and I could read their language.
“It’s a letter of invitation.”, I exclaimed
“Invitation to what?”, she asked
“It seems the elves like to organize a tournament every 100 years to see who is the strongest among the new generations of elves.”
“Well, now that’s useless for us.”, Lazarus said
“Not necessarily.”
“It’s for the elves what has that got to do with us.”, Lazrus asked
“It’s a tournament conducted every 100 years, it would mean it will include the most talented of the elves fighters who are below 100 years, even the high officials of the elves would be preset as judges on the tournament. It a perfect chance for me to measure the strength of the high elves.”
“You are going to disguise yourself as an elf and participate.”, she asked
“Yes”
“What if someone found out?”, she asked
“If someone found out I could simply escape or even if I got captured, there is no harm, remember this is a body replica.”
“Hey, I want to fight too.”, she demanded

“You guys will get your chance later.”
“Is it really only about finding the power of the elves?”, Lazarus asked thinking something was not right
“Yes”
“Really?”
“Okay, alright, it’s also because I want to fight. I was trapped in a dungeon for a long time, then, I had only fought to survive and escape. In the process, I got strong, incredibly strong. When I got out of the dungeon, I thought I would have a simple and normal life. But I was clearly not meant for living a simple life. Unlike in the dungeon here, I had an audience, and people who could see my power, appreciate it, fear it, and respect it. In the previous kingdom, where I became a hero by spreading the virus and curing the people myself, I felt a sense of power and felt pleasant when the people respected my abilities. And more than that, I clearly enjoy fighting, and I want to fight even stronger opponents.SO, I have decided to build a kingdom. I would protect the people behind me and destroy the opponents in front of me and keep expanding my kingdom, meeting more opponents along the way.”
“So, how about it? become the first two citizens of my kingdom.”
“Keeping crushing opponents and keep moving forward huh, sounds fun, the only thing that happens in this world is constant way, the vampires, the elves, the demons, the humans, even more species, all they do is compete with each other if you build a kingdom you will be going up against all of them, and I simply want to kill of them, so, I am in,” Lazarus replied
“Great and what about you, crimson?”, I asked while looking at her
“Hmmm, I am not so sure,” she had an indifferent expression like she did not want to be under anyone
“After all’s over, I will build you a cave full of treasures where you could sleep.,” I offered
“I am in.”, her face changed really quickly
“Wait, don’t we need land and people to build a kingdom.”
“Ahh, don’t worry about that I already have plans on how to arrange that.”
“But before all that, we need to deal with the high elves. Let’s go.”
“Where to?”
“To build to an army. Leaving the corpses of the elves just there would be a real waste, wouldn’t it?”, I said
“You are going to turn them into an undead.”, Lazarus said
“Yep”
But to our surprise, when we arrived at the place where the battle had taken place, no corpses remained. We searched even below the boulders, but there were none.
“How could this be possible? The corpses couldn’t have just disappeared.”, I said in confusion
“I can feel the traces of necromancy. Someone just used this battle to their own advantage. Damn it, I should have been more careful.”, I realized
“It’s okay none of us saw this coming.”
