Chapter 22: [Necromancer]
Running up to the south-east wasn’t as much different from north-west. Roof after roof, I jumped as usual. The old lady stood there observing me from the church like last time and jumping off central street, I reached the south region pretty easily.
Though things were a little different from what they were in the north.
[Skeleton Warrior!
Level: 23
HP: 3400/3400
MP: 1000/1000]
[Zombie!
Level: 20
HP: 4000/4000
MP: 300/300]
My eyes observed the walking dead throughout the night city in the south-east… my eyes glistened as I saw an opportunity in this distress…
“Exp Points,” I almost laughed with joy, as I couldn’t believe my luck here. This was different on a fundamental level… this will change almost everything…
‘All right! Here goes nothing!’ I thought as I jumped down from the alley directly towards the ground from the roof. Mid air, I checked the position and number of monsters in the alley.
Seven.
And as soon as my feet touched the ground
[Frenzy!]
[Super Strength!]
-Whoosh!!!!
Reaching the first zombie…
-Slash! x 2
It didn’t kill it.
[HP: 1400/4000]
I pushed it a bit ahead towards the nearest skeleton.
And gaining the momentum
-Slash! x 2
[You have killed a Zombie!]
[+18,000 Exp!]
And then moving towards the skeleton…
-BOOM!!!
[You have killed a Skeleton Warrior!]
[+25,000 Exp!]
[Level Up +1]
[+1 All Stats]
[+2 Free Attributes!]
[You have reached Level 10! Class selection is available now!]
I gave a quick glance to the System message, before I moved to the next Skeleton Warrior.
-Slash! x 2
[You have killed a Skeleton Warrior!]
[+ 23,500 Exp!]
And then the next one…
[You have killed a Zombie!]
[+16,000 Exp!]
By the time I killed these four, even more started appearing behind the alley. My eyes observed them for a couple of seconds before I took a step back to take a breather.
[Strength: 44 -> 46!]
And then I charged again…
[You have gained +15,000 Exp!]
[You have gained +24,000 Exp!]
[You have gained +22,000 Exp!]
[Level Up +1!]
[+1 All Stats!]
[+2 Free Attribute Points]
A refreshing feeling consumed my body as I regained my stamina. I would love to kill the monsters more but both my [Frenzy] and [Super Strength!] were on cooldown.
“Enjoying the night, are we?” A crisp voice of a man in his 20s came from the other side, making me turn around in that direction. I still kept the skeletons in my mind. That would reach me in about 10 seconds as I observed the man in black.
He wore a black cloak, with a circular red hat as he carried a J-shaped staff in his hands. Wearing a white crow mask, he looked at me with a frantic look as the black mana escaped through the side of his wrists where the gloves couldn’t cover.
[Name: Baraka
Class: Necromancer!
Level: 60
HP: 2300/2300
MP: ????/????]
“Almost my second favorite,” I smiled as I dashed towards him. Though he did not move even an inch from there, as if he wasn’t worried about my approach even in the slightest.
“Thank you for the experience,” I smiled as I almost reached closer to him and…
-Thump!
A bouncy barrier appeared between me and him. His eyes smiled as he looked at me. I wonder what he was thinking…
Though all his smiles vanished when…
[Hell’s Flower: Dark Lily!]
A flower, dark as the night, appeared in between me and the necromancer. It was a simple yet beautiful flower that floated in the air while I looked at Baraka, his eyes shocked beyond recognition.
-Slash!!!!
I used all my strength to slash his legs, rendering him unable to move. My eyes observed the [Dark Lily] rapidly absorbing the mana from the surrounding at an insane rate.
[One Way Out(Common)!]
[Effect: Increase one stat of the user’s choice to sum total of all stats he possesses for 10s.
Penalty: The other stats reduced to 1 for 10s.

[Dexterity boosted!]
-Whoosh!
And at an insane speed I began moving away from there, before I found the nearest leverage to jump on the window. Using parkour, I jumped from one window to another before I reached the top. And taking shelter against the roof…
-BOOOM!!!!
I heard a loud explosion from below as the [Dark Lily] blasted everything into smithereens. My notification rang like hell as I got back to my prime health with the level ups.
It seemed like I caught more than just a few fish here…
“Could have farmed more, but… okay…” I smiled like an idiot as I saw those messages popping up endlessly. Did it give me the experience points of not only the ones that died here but also those that died because of the death of the necromancer?
Well because…

“Well. All good, but this is the most profit I had with this one,” I smiled as I saw the skill.

“Did I end up killing more than 100 monsters in one go?” I almost couldn’t contain my laugh as I stood up again.
My eyes, observing Ameliana, who was looking at me with a slightly cautious look. The smile on my face didn’t fade, though. I, now possess the means to escape from here as long as I don’t completely f*ck up.
“Who are you?” Ameliana asked as she looked at me with slight fear. She was hesitating, wasn’t she?
“Come on Ameliana. Don’t be so hard on me now, will ya?” I smiled as I looked at her, wondering how I should plan my next step.
Though by the strange fate of events… her eyes widened as she looked at me…
“What did you… call me?” she asked me again…
I wouldn’t have been surprised if she hadn’t removed the dozens of fireballs from the air, leaving herself defenseless like that. It baffled me a little about what she was planning…
“Ameliana Reidsa Lurentze,” I took her full name just for the fun of it. Though hearing my words… she was smiling?
“And who… are you to me?” she asked a rather strange question.
“A savior from the… future?” Where is the conversation going again? Because I can’t kill her, and I still couldn’t figure out what I should do in this situation, I decided to amuse her for the time being.
Not like she is going to believe me-
“Ah!”
And then…
She jumped towards me…
I wanted to react, but she was freaking fast…
And then…
She hugged me tightly.
“You should have told me earlier,” she answered as she looked at me… with her tearful eyes.
“…” and all I could do was stare at her… just what the… fuck?
