Waiting for Shelly was boring and I was forced to think about life. I was hear without any boots summoning and un summoning undead rats because I did not have enough gold.

If i had enough gold i could have bought a skill book with the earth attribute in it rather that trying to meditate with freezing feet. Hoping to gain a lesser earth affinity.

Shelly showed up and grinned at me “Feeling cold are we. I will get you some soup in a second.” I looked at Shelly having a bad feeling in my stomach. “Why would you bring me food unless we were going to be here a while.”

Shelly gave me a smirk “That spirit necromancer spell book you found had some interesting things to say. Stay in that room and set up this alter. We are going to be hear a couple of days. Relax I have a couple of bags of holdings. Also I am paying for everything.”

Shelly pasted me a bowel and I used a minor heat spell to heat it. Shelly grinned “Ok the the spell book says that once we form a party we can have you use create undead on some say rats and if your not near me they will attack me. They will be treated like dungeon creations.”

I just knew what was coming next. Shelly grin widened “We can share the experience and gain titles at the same time.” I cursed internally I was cold and feed up but the minute I left the dungeon i could kiss the extra titles and experience points goodbye.

Shelly winked at me again and I had the sudden urge to bash her over the head with my warhammer. Shelly left me to set up the shrine while she left to gather the corpses from there coffins.

Shelly had brought blankets and food but I still had to sleep in a room with a creepy shine and a lot of dead bodies. Shelly was still dragging bodies of there coffins when I fell asleep.

I woke up to a tired and red eyed Shelly preparing some sort of tea. Shelly handed me the tea. “Alright here is how this works. You stand outside the chamber and cast create undead on the undead rats I have in the bag of holding. Because the shrine is here the rats are classes at dungeon constructs. The tea will raise your Mana regeneration. I have left you some food outside this room and a couple of mana potions for when we start on the standard corpses.”

I chugged down the tea and started to use my spells to create undead rats. Shelly simply stomped on the slow rats. She kicked them into the walls or cut them in half with her Axe. I noticed my experience was going up a point per rat. After the first hour I got a notification

New Title undead killer + 5 percent damage to undead

Title undead killer and monster slayer combining

Monster Slayer+ 10 percent damage to all monsters + 5 percent chance of a critical hit.

Upgrading to

Monster Slayer+ 12 percent damage to all monsters + 6 percent chance of a critical hit.

Shelly stopped and took a drink of a potion of stamina. Her voice echoed out of the final bosses room “Drink two mana potions we want to hurry this up.”

I did as i was told and Shelly began to cut threw the undead. Shelly stopped after another hour and the final Rat died with a crush as it hit the wall from a particularly vicious kick.

I got a notification

New Title undead slayer + 10 percent damage to undead

Monster Slayer+ 12 percent damage to all monsters + 6 percent chance of a critical hit.

Upgrading to

Monster Slayer+ 15 percent damage to all monsters + 7 percent chance of a critical hit.

Shelly voice echoed out “That book was dead on. We both got a title. I also just reached level thirty. I have ten spare rat corpses but but lets go threw as many standard corpses as we can. How is your mana”

I checked “I have four left. Wait my intelligence went up i have four left out of 65. My intelligence went up. Ok i need to head out somewhere for a second. I really need to pee. I will be back in a second.”

I ran to a corner we would not be passing threw on our way out and left a mess for Simon to pick up of course there was no paper or leaves so i used the rags from a broken pile of coffin wood. I got back to Shelly drank another cup of tea and we started again.

I was at level 19 exp 959/1100 and each summoned Zombie gave me 12 to 13 experience points. It was much slower going as

it cost four times the cost to use even a basis create undead on the zombies. But it was worth it 43 bodies later and i was at level 20 exp 396/1100

Shelly collapsed and I entered the room which looked like a butchers shop. Shelly dragged herself out of the main room and pulled out a blanket from her bag of holding. She gave me a stern look “wake me in three hours. Our carriage arrives around then and i do not what to explain the mess to Simon. He will try to charge us a clean up fee. Take down the shrine and mix its parts with the bodies.” Shelly started to snore and i did as she said.

I took a look around the dungeon looking for anything that might have been missed but there was nothing. I woke Shelly on time. Shelly got up and we moved to the front entrance of the dungeon.

Shelly motioned to a couple of bags of holding “They still weight about 20 to 40 percent of the weight of the goods in them. So there a bit heavy grab one and lets make a run for it. Simon will want to charge us a clean up fee. Or make us clean up the rat corpses”

I picked up the bag and cursed “Whats in this?” “Who is it that should be the question.” Shelly grinned “The lord zombie and the three guard Zombie can be turned into rare to good skeletons. Lets move it.”

We ran to the cart owners cart who i had never bothered to learn the name of and tossed in the bags. Shelly leaned in close to the driver “I have a copper coin it you get us to town in less than three hours.” the cart slowly began its journey and Shelly fell asleep again.

I was thinking about asking the cart driver his name but I was tired as well. I guess it must have been a side effect of the mana tea. I was woken by the screaming of a merchant “Get your fireball spell here only ten gold a greater fireball spell only fifty”

Shelly got out of the cart and looked around “This is not good. Everyone looks flustered” I saw pixie fly by calling out “Healing potions five gold each get your healing potions here.”

Shelly blanched “Something is up thats to expensive. Lets go see Van.” We Ran to van to see him arguing with a lord. Van looked at the lord who was almost frothing at the mouth and screamed “Shut up it will be hard enough for me to guarantee the safety of this village. I have no one to spare until after we stop the tide thats heading for me and mine.”

Van starred at Shelly “Your back good I have need of healing potions so as acting mayor i am issuing a writ of. I do not know what the word is but i get to buy your potions off you at market price. Keep three each and take six mana potions with you on your way out Wrath” Van starred at me “Wow you hit level 20 see the priest both of you. I will come with you to give you some tips Wrath.”

The priest took one look at us and sighed “ok your here to gain the trait you gain at level thirty and your here to gain your next class. Fine fine but i am running low on miracles. I can give you your class you will have wait for any new traits until later.”

Lets check for Higher level classes that are available to you.

Van patted me on the back “Pick death mage. Marge sent my over a copy of class requirements for ranking up for you. Its the best choice now choose the trait negative energy adsorption and mana affinity. ”

I looked over my new sheet and starred. Van nodded “its normal it will take time for some the effects of your new traits to appear on sheet. Some of your old traits will fade into the background. The thing to watch is the rise in your mana and experience bar. Your experience bar went to 1200 from 1100 because you gained a new class. Time is wasting off you go.”

Borris the blacksmith was waiting outside with a few random weapon on a rug in front of him and a giant hammer in his hands. His voice boomed out “All weapons are ten times the marked price come and get them before the goblins come and get you.”

I winced and wished i had more potions so i could sell them. I noticed that pixie was not advertising potions anymore so i was betting she was sold out. I so wanted to sell the few potions that i had left and the merchant had been trying to sell a great fire ball spell for fifty gold coins. I had one but given i was heading somewhere dangerous. The spell scroll could save my life.

I heard a voice call out “Gold I have five gold for a mercenary who is willing to escort me and my family to Liverlake city even bringing me as far a Halewood village nets you four gold coins. I will pay twenty five for a mage and thirty for a Mercenary over level forty. ” Shelly swore “Thats the lord that wanted Van to send troops to drive off the goblins from his lands. I guess he figures that he would stay here and have Van fight his battle for him.”
