'Those fucking bastards! Don't they realize how expensive those damn rings are?!? Once I'm in control of this country I'm going to get rid of those worthless, annoying, pieces of sh-'
"Elisabeth, please calm down, I know what happened but you're getting too angry."
Brenda placed her hand on my shoulder, and managed to calm me down a bit.
"Thank you Brenda."
"I know it's expensive but we can make more rings."
"Yes, I'll just wait until we get back."
--------------------
"What the hell, their bodies disappeared?"
The bodies of the three adventurers turned to dust as they died, leaving just a pile of dust.
"See! I told you they were cheaters!"
"Hmm, I suppose you're right."
Since there was nothing left of the three adventurers I decided to grab some books and learn more while I waited for my minions to regenerate. I also decided to grab some books about healing magic.
"Here Emerald, read these."
"Hm? Books? But books are boring! I want to play!"
She crossed her arms and looked away from me.
"Oh? So you don't want to be able to cheat like them and heal yourself?"
At this I saw one of her ears twitch and then she slowly turned her head so I tossed one of the books at her.
"There, that'll teach you how to heal yourself, if you want more then I have some others for regeneration and even one for resurrection should you ever feel you're going to die."
I placed the books down next to her, took a seat, and started reading. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't learn healing and holy magic since I was undead. The knowledge I had told me that if undead ever tried to use holy magic they would most likely burn up on the spot. I focused on reading while occasionally glancing at Emerald to see her reading. While I was reading I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see Erika, apparently she'd finally recovered from being dragged around the wasteland.

"Um, would you mind if I read some of these books?"
She then put her hand onto some of the books I was reading, most of them involving unholy magic and various other spells and skills to increase strength, constitution, and regeneration.
"Ah, I don't care if you read them but they're mostly about dark magic and other unholy stuff."
"Oh, well that's fine."
"Then go ahead."
She sat down next to me and started reading one of my books, when she did I noticed Emerald also moved closer to me, odd. Anyway, I kept on reading and learning new things and when I got bored I decided to check on my stats again.

I've saved up five Ability points and managed to hit the level cap on the Necromancer class which gave me some pretty amazing abilities that I'll have to test out later. For some reason I still haven't unlocked any other classes, I'll have to look into that later.
After waiting for quite some time, my minions finally managed to regenerate and were finally ready to follow me to one particular place I hadn't been to yet. I didn't really plan on coming back to this castle so I decided to learn a little spell called Inventory, it was an incredibly useful dimension magic that allowed me to hold a near unlimited amount of items. With this spell I stored all of the books within the library, with room to spare. I was more than surprised at how much room there was with this spell, it was really useful.

"Wow! That's a really cool magic trick friend! Teach me!"
Once seeing an entire library of thousands of books disappear, Emerald was quite excited by it. Erika was speechless when she saw it happen, she just stared at the once full shelves, then looked at me.
"Can I learn that?"
"Sure, I don't care."
I took the book from my Inventory and handed it to her, then gathered my army and headed toward the boss room on this floor. I ordered all of my minions to form up, the humanoid skeletons in the front, and the giant ones to the back, with the dragon and other bird-like skeletons flying above. I didn't bother asking how the hell they were able to fly with just bones for wings, kind of like how I don't question how I'm able to move around without any muscles. In the very front of the army, Emerald, Erika, and I all sat on one of the black wraith-like dragon. The evolved minions of mine had shadows that formed a type of skin around their bones which made them look like a black version of their living selves from far away.
"Yay! We're finally going hunting!"
Emerald was more than a little excited at the fact we were going to kill the floor boss. Erika was visibly shaking at the moment, probably fearing that she would die upon entering the boss room. I decided to comfort her a little by talking to Emerald, I don't know why but I felt that Erika was somehow my responsibility now since I was the one who decided to save her. Don't misunderstand, if she died I still wouldn't care, but if there was something I could do to prevent it I felt that I would.
"So Emerald, did you learn that healing magic?"
"Hm? Oh yes friend! I learned that and the regeneration and resurrection magic too!"
"Good, you'll use that magic to protect Erika right?"
"Of course friend! I'll protect Erika for sure!"
She stood up and saluted me for some reason. I glanced at Erika and she seemed to calm down a little.
'Good, it worked.'
So like that, we marched towards the boss room. It was rather obvious where it was at since there was a giant door at the end of this floor that could be seen from any part of this wasteland.
