Chapter 56: Birth of Rebellion. The stubborn skeleton.
GROAANn!
Not giving the zombie a chance to counterattack, Leo clenched his left fist before punching the zombie's head consecutively.
Boom! Boom!
Bang!
Ding!
[ Congratulations upon killing a Level 18 zombie! ]
+25 exp points!
+250 horror points!
Indeed...
"Sigh... The experience gained after killing beings below my realm decreased a lot." Gasping for air, Leo stared at the little increase on his exp point in a deep thought.
Although Leo already expected this to happen, the exaggerated decrease in exp gain after killing beings below his realm still surprises him.
Never expected that the reduction almost reaches 90%.
Sigh.
Shaking his head, Leo kicked the dead bronze zombie on the ground toward the approaching zombie in the distance, causing them to lose balance before stumbling toward the ground.
Not giving them a chance to regain their footing, Leo and the two dark skeletons beside him rushed toward the zombies. Killing them within seconds.
Slash!
Bang!
Thud!
Clank (Huff~)...
After a while. Seeing that the zombies are finally dead, Skeleton #1 sat on the zombie it killed before assuming a posture of exhaustion. It looked at Leo pitifully as its black-purple flame eyes flicked slightly to show how exhausted it was.
"Stand up! Don't look at me like that, you two still needed to level up till 15...
"Besides that, If you want to act, don't act like that. Did you forget that you're skeleton? Skeleton's stamina is almost unlimited!"
"Now stand up and continue!" Leo stared at Skeleton #1 strictly as he commanded it while the corner of his lips twitched violently.
Days ago, in able to speed up the process of getting used to the sudden increase of his overall strength after advancing, Leo decided
to follow the group's advice to fight zombies.
Since he decided to use the zombies as a training partner, Leo pulled his two dark little skeletons in the process. Causing their level to level up drastically.
Instantly bringing them to level 13. Only a little away from level 15!
However, as the skeletons were about to level up to 15... Leo didn't expect that after only making them kill zombies for 8 hours (without rest) one of the skeletons began to show signs of rebellion.
...
CLAnk, Clank! (Hearthless summoner! I'm not going... Not going!)
Number 1 Skeleton raised his head up and away from Leo as it rolled its flame-purple eyes away from him.
"You really are stubborn huh?" Seeing this, Leo laughed maliciously as his eyes flickered with a dangerous glint.
Raising his hand, Leo summoned a weak pure white flame on his hand before showing it toward the Lazy dark skeleton in the distance.
Ccclank? (Wha-what are you planning to do heartless summoner?)
Skeleton #1 stared at the pure white flame on Leo's hand warily, It could feel the uncomfortable and disgusting aura emitted by the pure white flames.
"Heheheeh, guess?"
"Cla-CLannkk... (D-don't approach me, my bone sword is much more sharper than before.) "
Upon seeing that Leo was approaching it unhurriedly with an evil smile hanging on his face. Skeleton #1 swings his bone sword dangerously in Leo's direction, its skeleton face finally shows a fearful expression.
"Clank...Clank! (You... You can't enslave the skeleton race!)" Skeleton #1 clanks its lower jaw as if gritting its teeth.
Hiding the fear within it, skeleton #1 released a loud clanking sound before running in Leo's direction angrily, swinging its bone sword left and right.
"Ehh, this kid really is stubborn." Leo scratched his cheeks, feeling a slight headache upon seeing how stubborn this skeleton was. Not only this one is mischievous and lazy, but it is also extremely stubborn.
Sigh...
Readying himself to teach the skeleton a good and unforgettable lesson, Leo stretched his hand forward, preparing himself to welcome the skeleton's attack.
...
"What's up with them?" Rosa, Roy, and the white cat watch the drama unfolding in front of them, in the distance with mixed emotions. Watching the dark skeleton rushing toward Leo with a dignified expression.
Meow~?
"Hmm, don't worry, I will not make you work for 8 hours straight," Roy said childishly upon hearing the white cat beside him, patting its head before looking back at the dignified dark skeleton in the distance.
Clank!
With an angry roar, the skeleton, after reducing the distance between it and Leo by 5 meters, suddenly increases its pace, causing a blur to appear in its original location.
Swish!
Soon, In the short seconds after increasing its pace. The skeleton almost reaches Leo's position.
"Hehehe, you're really stubborn... huh?"
As Leo was about to hit the skeleton heavily upon entering within his reach. The skeleton which was within his reach, suddenly stopped on its track, causing Leo to also halt in pure confusion.
"Ehh?"
Placing the bone sword on his side, the dark skeleton suddenly kneeled down to the ground before slowly kowtowing in Leo's direction.
Clank...clank... ( I give up Almighty Summoner... I mean Necromancer. )
The skeleton made a loud clanking sound of surrender as he faced Leo with its pitiful eyes. (glancing from time to time at the white flame in slight fear.)
"(o_o)" Leo.
"(o_o)" Rosa, Roy, and The white cat in the distance.
"[ '-' ]" #2 skeleton as it looked away from skeleton #1 in embarrassment.
"Where is your dignified expression earlier!" They thought in unison as they stared at the kneeling skeleton.
...
..
.
"Sigh... Forget it, I'm really soft-hearted.
"However even if you surrender just like that, I will still punish you heavily."
Leo speaks awkwardly as he faces the dark skeleton on the ground, wondering where it got/learned its personality.
Clank? Clank! (There's still punishment!?)
The dark skeleton on the ground exclaimed, thinking if it made the right choice not to stab the heartless summoner earlier.
Flick!
"What kind of rebellion are you thinking?" Leo flicked his finger toward the head of the dark skeleton upon seeing the glint in its eyes.
"Now for punishment, kill one hundred zombies!"
Clank!
Skeleton #1. "[ T - T ]"
