《The ghost dungeon master》The knight's raid (1)
Advertisement
Seeing the kid had fallen asleep, the ghost went back to the dungeon master room. After arriving back into the dungeon master room, he saw the fight between the skeleton and the bandit bosses have finished. He decided to check whether if the next skeletons he summoned will retain their skills if they had been destroyed, so he summoned a skeleton immediately and check it stats.

"O nice, the skeletons don't lose the skills that they had gotten from training if they get destroyed, that means I can make them learn magic and I can have a mage army if needed. Speaking of that did my summons skills level?" wondering about it, he decided to check his own skills.

"Nice, my summon skills have leveled up."
Next the ghost headed over to the training ground, to check up on Kuro.
As he entered the training ground, Kuro was perching on top of the console. The moment Kuro saw the ghost coming in, he 'meow' at him. The ghost flew over to him and stroke him on the head, after patting Kuro for a while, Kuro started using his paw and pat on the screen.
Immediately, the ghost knew what Kuro wanted, he carry him and place him on the floor, before starting to change the settings on the console. He increase the pole course's difficulty by 2 and the cliff course's difficulty by 2. After a few minutes of waiting for the courses to load in, Kuro jumped onto the start platform again.
Feeling that he was free and had nothing else to do the ghost summoned 2 bone spears and placed it near the skeletons that were training and he knocked out immediately.

~~ A few hours later!~~
The ghost woke up and saw, chibi staring at him as though she had been waiting there for quite some time. Wondering what was wrong, he asked, "Is something wrong?"
"Mr. Ghost, can you get me another one of that sweet bun?" she asked as she looks at the ghost with googly eyes.
"Alright, by the way did any other things happened?" he asked her while he when into item shop and purchase a few red bean buns.
"Nope, nothing serious happened." chibi replied with a smile as she took the red bean buns, "By the way, Mr. Ghost what will you be doing with those things you brought back?"
"Oh, I totally forgotten about those items, thanks."the ghost said as he rubbed chibi's head.
Being reminded of the herbs and potions he brought back, he immediately went into the item shop to see if he could purchase something that could teach him about alchemy.
_____________
Item : : Recipes of all basic alchemy potions, 10 potions in total. [Cost : 50 dp]
After he purchased the book and started reading, a notification pops up.
On the opposite side of the training a door appeared on the wall. The ghost flew over and through the door was a 10m by 10m area, with what look like a fire pit in the center of the room.
: Test tubes, crusher, pounder, beakers, cutter.
: a stand for the book of basic alchemy allows projection of recipes
: Increase success rate of crafting potions by 5%
He immediately opened the layout menu and a new tab had appeared next to the training ground, he then quickly set the locations of the new items he received, he place the alchemy table with the alchemy set near the left side of the wall and the book stand on the side of it. After he was done, he placed the book of basic alchemy on the stand. The moment he flipped open the book a 3d projection of the page he was on appeared above the book.
He went through the list of items for the most basic healing potion and realized that the herbs he had gotten from the stolen goods were insufficient. He then browse through the item shop to check for the remaining herbs that he needed and realize that it was too expensive to actually work on alchemy at this point of time without a steady supply of herbs.
Seeing that he couldn't do anything else, he went to check on Kuro and chibi. When he walked out of the alchemy room, he saw chibi feeding Kuro with the monster food he had bought recently and it seems that the stock wasn't dwindling as quick as before.

"Hmm, you can actually gain stats bonus. That's a nice information to have. I wonder what other methods there are to gain stats."
Before the ghost could take a look at the item shop, chibi came over,"Mr. ghost, the kid seems to have wake up."
"Thanks, I'll go check up on him." after saying that, the ghost teleported over to the graveyard zone.
"Hiieee!" the kid screamed when he saw something appeared through the walls, after realizing it was the ghost that had came before, he calmed down, "Mr. ghost, please don't scared me like that."
"Hey kid, are you a scaredy cat? Heck, my cat is even stronger than you, anyways there are no other way I can come in from, since that door is sealed with gravestones."the ghost retorted. "By the way kid, you fell asleep half way."
"I'm sorry."the kid replied with his head hang low.
"It's okay, you had a rough day anyways. Will escorts come to rescue you?" the ghost asked him.
"Yes, they will, if I am not wrong my father's military army is close by, cause one of the villages had been raided by bandits. So if my escorts encounter a problem, they were told to group up with my father's army first." the kid look at the ghost and explained.
"Hmm, okay, let's change the topic, what kind of professions are there in this world?" the ghost asked curiously.
"There are alchemist who makes potion, enchanter who use magic to enchant equipments, mage crafter who craft magic items that benefit our life, blacksmith who craft weapons and armors from loots gotten by adventures or from mining, Magi architect they research and craft specialize items for buildings, making buildings more resistance to the elements, but there are very few of them as they are the elite of elites amongst the mages. That's the ones I can recall at the moment." the kid explained like he was a teacher.
All of a sudden, the kid took out something that look like a flare he aimed upwards and press a button, an red aura started gathering on the tip of the flare like object before a light orb shot out and flew through the roof of the mausoleum.
"What was that?" the ghost looked at him and ask.
"Thanks, Mr ghost, if you hadn't asked me those questions, I would have forgotten my dad gave me this magic item which allows my escorts to find me within a 20km range." the kid smiled as he said.
~~~Meanwhile~~~
"Johnny was that a magic flare?" Carver looks towards johnny and asked.
"What the actual F****! I believe it is. BRADEN, BRADEN!" the bandit boss Johnny ran into the hallway from the outside, and begin shouting.
"Yes boss, what happened." Braden came out of one of the side room, rubbing his eyes sleepily.
"There was a magic flare that came from the lower level, wake the rest up, we might need to prepare to defend this location. It's too late for us to run, we will need to get the boys to cut some trees to make barricades." Johnny said in full panic mode.
"Roger that!" Braden immediately when back into the room and kick the sleeping bandits.
Within 5 minutes all the bandits gathered in of the main room.
"Boys, that kid hostage seems to be a noble cause he had a magic flare on him, F***, we need to prepare for the incoming attack from his knights. Those who can walk go get some wood for us to make barricades, the others that can't walk be the eyes for us. Use our special call if you spot them from a far." the bandit boss johnny started briefing the guys what to do.
"GO GO GO, we are running out of time if we keep waiting here. I just hope that he isn't a high rank noble, F***."
