《My next life as a skeleton.》Waking up in a Dungeon.
Advertisement
Hmmm....my view is blur.
Where am I ??
I am a average school boy. Who is a shut-in. I spent most of my time in my room playing MMORPG games or watching anime.
Everyday i came out of my room. and saw my violent father is beating my mom with a leather belt.
A human who calls him my Biological-father beats my mother after drinking alcohol everyday. But my mother never shouted because i was in next room. But i knew everything.
But on that day he has a broken beer bottle in hand and headed towards my mother to kill her.
I never said anything but today i have to choose...
Actually it happens very often when i play games too. I stand at a point where i have to choose from two option's to do a thing or not. As of today i have two options :-
>>1. Save my mother.
>>2. Go back to my room.
I choose option one and made run to save her i pushed her off from her place without saying anything and taken a half broken glass beer bottle into my stomach last thing i saw was my mother calling police and ambulance i think she will be safe now.and i am happy, at the end i come to some use of my mother now lets come back from flashback...
So where am i ??
I can't feel anything.
I can't speak no matter how hard i try.
I can't feel my tongue.
Its a dark place.... ah....i am losing consciousness agian....
(After few minutes)
I gained consciousness again after a few minutes i lifted my hand. What i see is a story right from a manga.
Its a hand made of bones like a skeleton. I tried to speak but i can't speak.
I standed up and looked at my body...
'I AM A SKELETON.'
So i died back then huh....and i am now a low leveled monster founded in a dungeon.
Its my second life.
But why am i a monster and on the top of that a lowest one. Let's calm down and remember.... according to the MMORPG i used to play i can see my status info right.

Let's try it.
I can't speak lets try thinking about it.
'Status' (With Full Concentration).
Huh....nothing happend.
Let's try again.
'STATUS OPEN'.
A screen popped up in front of me.

Its lower than a average human in game.
It means a average human can kill me.
'HOLY SHIT'
Okay Okay don't panick.
《Title acquired [The calm one]
The one who can remain calm in dire situation.
This Title will let you remain calm in dire situations. 》
Hmmm....Good i acquired a title.
But first lets collect some information using skill appraisal.
I will first see where am i.
As the skeleton places one hand on the wall and cast's appraisal skill.
《APPRAISAL》
[Stone]
.......Hmm?
As i casted it i realized i am in not in a good condition.
Is it because its level is low.
Should i invest some skill points in it but skill points are hard to get in game let's save them and take a walk through the area.
As the skeleton walk in dark he saw a ray of light. He runs towards it. it's a exit.
'Yes a exit'.
I think i am in a dungeon.
There are some people coming this way i will ask them.
Wait a minute i cant speak.
No no no that's not the problem. The problem is that i am a monster and if this is a dungeon then i am there exp to raise there levels.
'I AM IN DANGER.'
Gotta hide.
As the skeleton hide's behind a big stone he understands that the people walking in dungeon are adventurer's
As he saw there get up.One of them is a guy holding a sword on his waist and another is a girl holding a staff and wearing a hat.
I think guy is a swords man and girl is a mage.
If i kill them now from behind i can get exp but can get killed easily

But looking at them they look like newbies.
I have an idea.
I will follow them and collect information.
(After 3 hours)
So, the conclusion i reached is that i am in a dungeon with 100 level in it. And this is as i assumed this is a world of
'SWORDS AND MAGIC'.
And the most powerfull adventurer's has only gone to level 23 till today.
You get exp by killing monsters.
And i am on dungeon level 1 because i am the lowest monster in all dungeon.
I am scared.
The title 《The calm one》is letting me remain calm.
He is scared because the two adventurer's he had seen
Earlier, killed 100 of skeletons in 1 hour.
Now if i go out i will get killed, but if i remain on this floor i will definitely get killed by some newbie adventurer's.
There are two option's again :-
>>1.DIE.
>>2.GO PAST LEVEL 23 OF DUNGEON.
I don't think that i have to think about it.
The only solution to avoid death is go past 'LEVEL 23'.
First lets get to the end of floor one.
'Yes Let's Go'
As the skeleton stands and turns around he saw that there was another skeleton standing there without wasting a second the other skeleton attacks the mc with a rusted sword.
Oh..shoot, i can't dodge it.
*tang*
It hitted on my shoulder.
《-10》
Mc jumps backward and dodge's next attack.
Holy cow it took one third of my hp in one hit.
Now i understan how those two killed 100's of my kind without breaking a sweat.
Why am i so calm.
I need a weapon.
mc picks a stone which fits perfectly in his hands.
System Invest 30 stat points in strength.
《+30 strength》
And now you go down.
mc throws stone at the right leg of another skeleton with full power. The another skeleton falls down and now mc hastly picks a bigger stone with both of his hands and throw it from up on the skeleton's skull who is lying down.
*Boom*
Don't mess with your grandfather boy.
《20 exp》
《Level up》
《Full recovery》
Wow i leveled up and gained a full recovery as in a game.
'STATUS OPEN'

My hp and mp increased by 10 points but strength and agility remained same...hmm...it means my str and agi will only increase when i invest stat points in it right.
As a monster i dont need food and sleep.
Ah....what's this there is something shiny floating in the skeletons
chest.
Let me see it
*grabs*
《Life Core Obtained》
Ah...i think its a core or you can say life core of monster's.
Wait a minute.
*looks down to his own chest*
I have one too.
I didn't even noticed.
《Do you want to absorb the Life core》《 yes/no》
Hmmmm..........yes.
*swish*
Wow the core vanished in thin air.
《No ability obtained》
Huh..??
I don't understand what it is saying but as a gamer i have an idea. Ithink the core carry the abilities of the monster's and the one who kill them can obtain them if i am right then it can help me greatly.
But why did one skeleton attack another skeleton.
(After 2 minutes of thinking)
So the conclusion is that these monsters don't know who is friend or foe they just know how to attack.
Whatever.
So its decided then.
i will go to dungeon's 2nd floor after i level up myself to Level 10.
Now i will show you monster's the godly ability of a gamer.
'GRINDING'.

Lost in Love
My name is Alexander Halesworth, sole heir to a prestigious ducal house. Or rather, that’s what my identity is supposed to be now. I still haven’t gotten used to this whole situation yet. Not long ago I was just a humble store clerk. But shortly after getting into an unfortunate road accident, I woke up in the setting of an infamous Otome Game called “Lost in Love: A Heart Throbbing Romance in a Fantasy World~!” Yeah. It’s even trashier than it sounds. Don’t judge me, it was a gift from a friend. *cough* Anyway, this situation wouldn’t be too bad, except I ended up in the body of the worst possible person: the villainess’ older brother. Alexander has great looks, near limitless wealth, and a thoroughly rotten personality. In most of the game’s endings I end up dead or exiled. My family also falls to ruin, and don’t even get me started on what happens to my evil little sister. Well, whatever. If that’s the hand fate dealt me, then I just have to prevent the bad ends, right? And if I have no choice but to deal with this family’s baggage, I may as well enjoy myself while I’m at it. Being filthy rich and powerful has its benefits. For example, this cute maid who I get to tease whenever I want. (Male lead otome reincarnation, inspired by Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite and similar works)

Allister Hale's Story Graveyard.
You've tried to write a story yes? So have I, Many times. I get a good vibe going, type a few pages worth of content then reach the point it gets the tiniest bit hard. Thing is, some of those stories are good, the kind of good that gets people excited and then disapointed when they cut off abruptly and without warning before fifteen chapters. So content Warning, none of theese little stories come to any kind of conclusion. A couple are just different attempts at the same idea (some with the same characters no less)They are also raw and uneddited, and no i wont be fixing them.I don't think any of them deserve any additional content warnings, as I'm not interested in writting those sorts of stories, but please read with caution.
