《LitRPG: The Rising Tale of an Undead Skeleton And His Master》Volume 1 Chapter 7: In The Meantime, Preparation For A Dungeon Raid
Advertisement
With that said and done, after Jack had a quick look around the military barracks and the training ground. Jack and Sirius then immediately left the facility, without further causing much of a disruption.
Sirius then asks Jack a question. "Was it really that necessary to kick up that big of a storm to prove yourself, Jack?"
Jack nevertheless retorted back at Sirius, as he said this. "He was literally asking for it. He even insulted me right in front of my face, and you are expecting me to quietly stand back and accept that. Not a chance."
"I see." Sirius was being empathetic towards Jack's particular situation.
Sirius then thought so to himself. 'If it was a vampire noble or someone of a similar power ranking, then Albert would certainly be beaten to the brink of a near-death state and thereby sustaining some serious injuries. However, due to Albert being a high ranking vampire, his particular vampire regeneration ability would thereby allow him to quickly recover to a near peak enough state within a day or two.'
As the two were nicely conversing and getting to slowly know each other. The two had then immediately arrived in front of the servant's headquarters. A row of the bedroom that houses the maids, butler, and servants that works and maintains the integrity of the manor.
Sirius then manoeuvres his hand and pointed in the direction of the bedroom in which Jack will be staying. "This here will be your own personal bedroom and servant quarters. So here's your room key and..."
It was then that Jack suddenly tilted his head in confusion, as he said so towards Sirius. "I am a undead. I don't even need to eat nor sleep in order to recover my strength and magical power."
Sirius then immediately understood what Jack meant, as he then later clarifies on whatever he just previously said. "You would certainly need your own personal living quarters to go to, whenever you have the spare time or are out of work."
"Oh, I see what you are trying to say." Jack then takes his own personal room key off of Sirius's hand.
After handing Jack his own personal room key to his living quarters, Sirius then also said. "I've also asked one of the maids to go ahead and brought you over some proper clothes to wear. Even though, you are a legitimate walking bag of bones, an Undead Skeleton. You are still not expected to go around, walking around the Astrid III's estate completely nude, right?"

"That seems reasonable." Jack then nodded his head in compliance.
Sirius then relays the orders that were specifically given from his mistress Alexias to Jack. "And also, in about an hour or two. Mistress Alexias will be having her own dinner at the dining table. There she will specifically give out the rights of whatever dungeon that you wanted ownership of."
"Okay, then." Jack gave a short response, as he nodded his head.
With that said and done, after handling Jack his own personal room key, Sirius then leaves the facility, returning back to his workplace withinside the kitchen and re-enacting his duties as the butler of the household.
Jack was then left all alone to himself, within the servant headquarters hallway. As he then takes the room key within the palm of his hand and places it into the keyhole of his room door. And all it took was a simple turn of the room key to unlock the key lock mechanism hidden withinside his room door to his personal living quarters.
Jack lightly turns the doorknob clockwise, pulling on the doorknob towards himself, in order to open the door. In which he then steadily enters the bedroom and closing the room door as he enters.
'The room seems to be quite spacious.' It was Jack's first thought after taking a quick glance at his bedroom, that which he will be living in for quite some time.
Jack then immediately finds the pair of clothes, which was a simple white long shirt and black pants, that Sirius was talking about, neatly folded together and placed on top of the bed mattress. And just right below the wooden bed frame, there is a pair of fancy middle class black hard leather shoes.
Jack was someone who tends to not fiddle with whatever clothes that he would get, so long as the pair of clothes are wearable and doesn't make him a laughing stock, or a clown, then it's totally fine. Most of the time, Jack's real-life self would often stay indoors and away from the outside sun, whilst just wearing a simple pair of plain t-shirt and some shorts. That's it.
Anyways, with nothing else to do in the meantime, Jack then immediately decided to get dress, and put on the clothes that Sirius had the maids go and get him. Which was quite thoughtful of him on his part.

'Let's put the clothes on and see how good I look, whilst wearing the clothes that Sirius had the maids brought over.' Jack thought so to himself. If he were to have actual human skin, you would obviously see a smiling immature man smirking right now.
Jack then puts on the pair of clothes that were specifically given to him by the maids, under Sirius guidance and instructions.
And there is a large mirror that is standing right beside the empty wardrobe so that Jack could inspect how stylish he looks with his new clothes on.
Jack then thought so to himself. 'I don't really look that half bad in the clothes that the butler Sirius had prepared for me. Usually, I just wore my glorified bone armour or a large cloak that covers the vast majority of my body, rather than wearing actual fabric clothes, whilst within Yggdrassil Online.'
'Now I need something else to do to pass the time.' Jack thought so to himself, whilst scratching his chin off his lower jaw.
Jack then did a quick surveillance around his bedroom, as he found an empty unused and untouched diary standing above on top of the wooden desk table, right beside a closely sealed ink flask and feather quill. Apparently, most of the servants within the household would keep a constant detailed diary of whatever they did throughout the day. So that they won't miss and forget certain things.
A thought then curiously passed through his head. 'Maybe I can craft a spell talisman with Magecraft utilizing the papers from the diary.'
Without much further thought, Jack then immediately pulled the wooden chair that is provided with the desk table, from right underneath the covers of the desk table.
Jack then sat down on the wooden chair behind the desk table, as he then flips over the hard leather book cover of the diary, towards the fresh untouched front page of the book.
Jack then thought so to himself. 'Considering the size of the book's page, I can easily draw two tier-1 magic circle spell talismans on one piece of paper.'
With that said and done, Jack then proceeded to rip a single page off, out of the diary. Afterwards, Jack would then neatly folded the piece of ripped paper in half, thereby creating a deep creased withinside the paper. So that he would utilise the creased withinside the torn-off paper to split the piece of paper in half evenly, almost perfectly.
Afterwards, Jack then opens up the sealed closed ink flask, and then take out the feather quill from the quill holder on the desk table.
Jack then lightly dips the end of the feather quill into the opened ink flask, and then immediately started drawing the tier 1 magic circle for the low-level elemental fire magic spell fireball.
The construction of the tier 1 magic circle for the low-level elemental fire magic spell fireball was eventually completed in under a minute or two.
[ You have successfully crafted a Tier 1 Magic Circle Spell Talisman Fireball (Disposable).]
'Thank god. The tier 1 magic circle are not at all that complex and are very simple to draw, otherwise, I would repeatedly make many mistakes to utmost no mistakes.' Jack thought so to himself, sighing a relief of success, after finally completing the first tier 1 magic spell circle.
And withinside the world of Yggdrassil, there are three categories of magic in which people use; the first category is the traditional spellcasting in which the magic caster has to chant the necessary spell incantation in order to conjure up the magic spell.
The second category is magecraft in which the magic caster would have already drawn the magic spell circle upon a piece of paper or magic object, and all they would need to do is pour their magical power into the magic spell circle, in order to activate the constructed magic spell. And usually, magecraft users would usually store their drawn magic spell circles withinside books known as a magic grimoire or spell talismans drawn on a simple piece of paper.
And finally, the last category of magic is spirit magic in which the user would then make a magic contract with an elemental spirit, and then borrow their own powers to freely manipulate the elements that correspond with the elemental spirit's elemental nature.

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw
