《Evolution of the Skeleton who walked alone in a Dungeon》Chapter 0033{Beneath The Palace}
Advertisement
The Fruit had the shape of a Sacred lotus. It had multicolored petals and a white ball on top of it.
While the link was being made, various light particles got emitted by the Fruit, and the missing tissues began to recover, my body began to recover.
The Fruit comes near my head, it shrinks its size and goes inside.
A mark was made on my forehead, both in my original body and replica, but it disappeared as soon as it was made.
The mark was like a small black lotus in my forehead.
It created what the elves called the spiritual sea inside my body. The Fruit would reside there.
One spiritual sea was created for both bodies. So, the Fruit now belongs to both of my bodies, not just one. I could summon the Fruit within my hands anytime I wanted, and when I called it, the mark would reappear on my forehead.
The only change my body went through was it became a normal body rather than an immortal one, and there was no improvement at all. The elf king said the Fruit needed to be supplied with energy, so I tried to pour some of my mana on it. Still, there was no difference it was like taking out my mana and just absorbing it with no change at all, I had no idea how to use the Fruit’s abilities or know even what it could do.
It was a disappointment.
I just relaxed in the bed for a moment.
It was now time to collect some information.
But the surveillance was no joke. I could feel two high elves in front of my door, nearly ten guards escorting the place.
Then I used my senses to scout around the whole palace and search for the place with the least guards.

I could feel open land beneath the palace.
There was no presence of life over there.
Maybe be its secret room made by one of the previous kings? Perhaps it holds some sort of secret about the elves? No, the king would not have left the room unguarded if it contains any valuable information or item. But does the king even know about that room? The room was well hidden, but the kings’ senses were comparable to my own, and I was able to find it pretty quickly, so there was no way the king would not have noticed. Could it just be an empty room? NO, it gives some sort of similar feeling, it can’t just be any ordinary room.
Curiosity was consuming me; I had to leave this room and go there.
What if it’s a trap? Who cares if it’s a trap?
The king had covered the entire palace with barriers that made the use of spatial Magic impossible. If his own spatial Magic was less potent than mine, I could have simply used my Magic undetected, but his spatial Magic was more potent then mine, hence blocking me from using my spatial Magic.
Well, he was more than a million years old, of course, his Magic would be more potent than mine, I was born just two years ago.
I waited until it was night time.
The elves were asleep, but there were still plenty of night guards around the palace.
I used the window to get out.
It was night time, but the city was still bright, but it was dark inside the palace.
It seemed like not many people lived in this palace.
Using my stealth, I could hide within the dark completely.
There were guards in the way, but I could get past them hiding within the shadows.

I could feel the hollow ground beneath, but there was no way to enter there, seems like there was no secret path to enter it.
SO, I just made it, I could control the soil, so I created a hole to go down.
I went down, there was a hollow path, I followed the track, there was a gate.
Ahh, I see, so this is why the elf king could not enter inside the room.
The door was covered in a seal made with darkness attribute; I could feel the malice with which it was made.
The elf king had a light attribute, so he could not enter through it, and if he had tried to purify it, the seal would get broken, taking down the entire palace with it, so he seems to have just ignored it.
I was able to pass right through the door, it was not very difficult as I was someone with darkness.
Inside was a big room, there were many treasures inside it, but all of it seemed cursed.
Suddenly I felt a burning sensation within my body, I backed a few steps, nothing had happened it lasted just for a moment, but it seems to have come from the coffin placed in the middle.
It was emitting holy light hazardous for a darkness attribute user like me.
I could not get near it but used telekinesis to open the coffin.
There was a body of a high elf.
I could not measure how old it was, but I knew it had died many years ago, but still, its body had not rotted.
The body was near 6’5’’ tall and had very muscular hands and legs.
I could not use necromancy on it as it was emitting such holy power even after death.
I wanted to inspect its body and find out why it was emitting such power, but as soon as I tried to touch it, my fingers would burn until only the bones remained.
But suddenly the mark appeared on my forehead, the flower emerged and went near the body.
[Would you like to feed the High Elf Cells to the Fruit?]
“What?”
I was surprised to see the thing that the fruit feed on was dead cells. I was excited to see what result it would give after consuming the cells.
“Yes”
The Fruit suddenly started to grow roots; the roots surrounded the body, slowly consuming the cells.

8 185Sarsaparilla's Scary Super Power. Completed
Sarsaparilla is an older teenage girl living on Mars. And, like many other young people around her, she has a super power. Or, rather, she is supposed to have a super power. Only she has never been able to activate it, she doesn’t even know what her super power is. This annoys her, tremendously. But she hides this behind a really sweet smile. Adalace is another teenage girl, also on Mars. She knows what her own super power is, and it is quite a good one. She is also really cute… so long has she keeps her feelings under control and doesn’t let out anything from her dark past. Teylon is a man, currently living on Earth. He likes to think of himself as still young, even if he is over fifty. He’s a bit smug about his successful career and is thinking of retiring… until a sadly unfortunate event leads him to the conclusion that he had better immigrate to Mars. Immediately. Apparently, meeting one’s own Angel of Death tends to cause people to make profound changes to their lives… Mars society had better brace itself, because once these three people, plus another three also not so quite stable individuals, collide with each other, the resulting explosion is not going to leave anyone on Mars unaffected. This is another Esmeralda, the Angel of Death, story. It follows on from my previous two such stories, but it is in no way dependent on the previous stories. They can be read in any order. It is fully written and proof read (using Word for Windows, no real editor touched this transcript) and comes to about 247,000 words (about 895 Royal Road pages). It is organized into 50 chapters and I will be publishing them roughly one per day. In my writing, there are multiple characters and multiple points of view. Each change in a point of view is introduced by a header, giving the viewpoint character’s name first, and possibly a title. Inside a Point of View section, dialog in italics represents the Point of View character’s thoughts, while dialog between quotes represent normal spoken dialog. This story is very much inspired by the anime A Certain Scientific Railgun. However I have only taken some elements from the anime, and changed everything I took to make my own story, and so it does not count as fanfiction. Yeah, I know, the book cover page isn’t very good. It’s the best I could do, by tracing over a stock image. The two ladies shown are supposed to be Adalace and Sarsaparilla. Ideally I would have liked there to be two images of this pair, one where they are smiling sweetly and looking cute, and one where they are looking really angry and dangerous. But that totally exceeds my graphics abilities. You will just have to imagine it.
8 116Martial King’s Lewd Dreams (Haitus)
There was once a man. He loved women as much as loved alcohol. His dream in the pugilistic world of the Murim? Of course... The man’s purpose was to get that booty. Whether it be by hook or by crook! The thing is that... He’s weak! His Martial Spirit couldn’t even break a rock, and he was too old to be accepted into any Sects (denying those over 13). It was a poor livelihood that made him want to cry... Beauties of Mount Hua, he was dashing indeed! Why don’t you measure his ‘third sword’ instead of his ‘first sword’? Alas... Life was truly cruel. He was known as your average scum until one fateful day. He’d never once thought he’d come across a situation where a woman was being bullied. Wasn’t that reserved for the Martial Heroes? Regardless, it was time for him to get into action and show his grit! Don’t underestimated a horny bastard! He’d slap you with his third sword and leave you guys to rot! He fought... but ended up losing his life. The woman he saved wanted to thank him, but the grim reaper was already asking for his credentials. That’s when his fate finally turned: “The damage to your heart is extensive. Will you accept me into your soul as a parasitic-“ “Are you a female?” “...Yes.” “Then please make yourself at home, Milady~” This is how he became a Martial King with lewd dreams.
8 180White Mystic Fox In A Radical World

The white fox girl never knows what's good and bad, letting them cage her effortlessly without minding their evil sneers because of her over-the-clouds excitement. Finally, the white fox girl realizes she has been treated as nothing more than a prey item ready to be devoured. She's staring at the night skies for a long time and slowly closes her eyes once she gets that divine premonition from somewhere else. It was soothing in the mind. Her lovely smile showed acceptance with tears flowing through her pinkish cheeks, and her consciousness began fading away. Before her senses faded, that glowing angel descended, knelt in front of her, and wiped away her tears. She doesn't know how to express her gratitude to the heavens above for blessing her with a fulfilling and peaceful life. Even if it was a mere single moment, that gratitude and that smile of hers were the happiest things she could ever express. Time has passed, and the sun has risen from its slumber. The soul of the thousand-year-old white fox girl finally ascended to heaven, leaving her lifeless, cold body behind, leaning against rusted metal poles. It was the most peaceful death everyone wished for. Painless and no regrets. The men in charge of the front didn't notice anything out of the ordinary going on behind them. Well... In common perspective and also in reality, a caged dead fox girl at the back of a horse-drawn carriage is no less than a funeral procession. Book found also on wattpad and webnovel.
