Pyro POV
After I finished playing with bandits I decided to experiment with Necromancy... What did you expect? I am Polymath, so here's description
So basic classes are the 8 main ones, while advanced is a combination... wait... I think I already heard that... so... anyway... If you got class of Puppeteer and Summoner you have access to the basic form of Necromancy. The advanced forms need also a mana stabilization. Oh right... joke about puppeteers and summoners are that if you aren't a mage then your creatures won't exist for long... Funny, right?
So my first experiment will be to create a skeleton from the bandit leader... good thing that I got quite a lot of mana, and the effeciency is quite good... So... let's start with it...
Pyro: “And... infuse here... add mana channels here, modify bone structure... let's crystalize mana... add some bone armor... add spikes... a bit more other stuff... hm... wings? Sure, let's go with them, but make them out of bone... add claws on hands and feet... horns? Yes, it will be fun... Oh and he will be black. Yes... like charcoal... can I make some glow inside his skull? Let's install gems... wait I don't have them... I got creation though... let's go with emeralds... yes... add some green streaks... and... We got a Necron... eh... sort of... it's made of bone, has spikes, horns, wings and whatnot, but it's form is that of... nope Necros are actually more like normal skeletons, but... Yeah... will add Ankh symbol... And all good. Now-”
Well... OK... Did I made it strong? Or not? Anyway I finished quest, got some gold, granted by the system,uncommon token, 3 common ones and points... where's my stuff though?
Eh? Seriously? But last time I got sword right in front of me.
Got it... So... Let's get some armor...
Huh? So armor sets are different? I guess Defensive means more thick, Offensive... maybe some spikes, blades or other stuff?
My actions? Well nevermind... Let's see offensive armor types.
…
So... I took the Dracculi armor set. Dunno who was that guy, but the armor is quite cool. I mean it's made of Mythril-Durium alloy and have some sort of shadow cape, while also quite nasty claws on both gloves and boots. Oh and Razor horn, or something like that... also this armor is sleek... and is in white in color... need to make an enchant for color changing though...
About weapon... I decided to take sword whip, made of Durium... actually there is also Adamantite, and adamantine, which is some sort of easier produced material... And adamantite somehow considered the 'God's Blood' or 'God's Bones'... dunno why it is so...
Anyway... as soon as I got it, I changed into the new armor, I mean why do I need some annoying leather, when I got myself armor made of fantasy metal? And let me tell you this... Mythril ain't that light as those pricks tell... Not as heavy as steel, but still... This armor set weights around 22 kilos! Not that it's heavy... my sword whip actually weights 4 kilos... so the Durium is quite heavy... maybe my armor weights so much because of the Durium? I mean that sword that I got would weight up to 2 kilos, not 4 something... I mean it's actually similar to the long sword and... khm...
So after I got the rewards AND decided to spent some time playing around with status... oh right...
Uh... so... Necromancy is a standalone mastery? And what with the Flesh Carving? I mean I used magic, and not some tools and what-not... And... Infusion... Where's Dark Infusion?
Hah? Anyway... don't care. It works, so everything is fine. Oh I need mastery increase in the whips category and necromancy... both to expert...
Cool... new skills...
Anyway I need to wait for the mana to regenerate... so... I will store the corpse inside inventory.

Allmighty Narrator POV
It was dawn... the capital Vertgass was currently in a peaceful sleep... well the ones who are regular citizens, and even in that case some were spending the night away from their family, if they had one.
The scenery of a new dawn over the capital was a sight to behold, especially for the guards stationed on the gates. Now though they couldn't see it because of some idiot standing in front of the gates.
Figure: “OPEN UP YOU LAZY BASTARDS!” the figure clad in white armor with black cloak covering it was annoyed.
Guard 1: “Can't you shut up?! I'm enjoying the scenery.”
Guard 2: “Yeah... besides the gates will be open after we end our watch, so wait a bit will ya?”
Figure: “You... YOU ARE FUCKING ANNOYING!!! WHAT THE FUCK SHOULD I DO IN THE MEANTIME?!”
Guard 5: “I don't know. Shouldn't you go hunt rabbits or something?” at such words guards laughed.
Figure: “Annoying bastards. And all the guards are lazy... fuck...” This figure was Pyro. He tried to enter through all gates, but every single time the guards will tell that gates are opened only after dawn, or if there is some serious reason. He could scale the walls, but then there would be some annoying questions, like where he was, when entered etc, not mentioning the alarm barrier. And so the Pyro decided to hunt a bit more, but he noticed that his mana was completely regenerated, so he decided to complete creating his first minion. Moving to the forest he took the 'skeleton' out of inventory and continued his work.
Pyro: “Let's continue... and now... arise my servant!” and making some excessive theatrical movements he pointed at the skeleton. Soon the corpse was moving, and the wannabe necromaner had his first undead slave, but...
Corpse: “Masssster... yourssss... ordersss?” the corpse was talking.
Pyro: “Um... can you talk without hissing?”
Corpse: “Yes... as... master... say...”
Pyro: “Good... then... why did I made you anyway?”
Corpse: “Master... can... master... give... me... name?”
Pyro: “Hmm... considering that you are a skeleton, has bone wings, spikes and nasty claws... let's call you Mr Boner, or Bones for short.”
Bones: “I... hear... you... master...”
Pyro: “Yeah... Let's stick with Bones... Boner is quite... strange?”
Bones: “Yes... I... am... Bones...”
Pyro: “Cool... Oh and can you access status?”
Bones: “No... master... I... can... not...”
Pyro: “... Is there any sort appraisal skill?”
Pyro: “Of course I wish! Say what does it do?”
Pyro: “Good... I will buy it... now [Identify]”
Pyro: “So... Bones... you are a Demi-Lich... and quite nasty one I might add... and you are level zero...”
Bones: “Master... What... Do... You... Wish... Of... Me?”
Pyro: “Eh... track an animal, kill it and rise it's skeleton.”
Bones: “I... Obey...”
Pyro: “Good... now... where's the animals?”
Short one... and will probably post another chapter the day after tomorrow... there shouldn't be an ice age, right?
Short one... Anyway I probably won't update the fiction tomorrow, so slight cliffhanger... But you like them, right?
So I will probably post another chapter the day after tomorrow... there shouldn't be an ice age, right?
Oh... Forgot to add it at first
Marsblob asked if he could create some sort of animation on the "-Easygoing spider, of untimely death-" and place it on YouTube... I guess he also meant vocalization... So... If you read this Marsblob then... MAKE THE SPIDERS PROUD!!!
