Master Of None-Chapter 60 - 60. Testing

"I need to incapacitate a zombie by breaking its arms and legs without damaging its head. I'll get a piercing passive skill." Remey saw Su and her excitement so she tried looking indifferent.

The only one they couldn't understand was midnight who was hopping in the air as high as she could. For a moment the three were stuck staring at her in confusion. However they didn't get much time to relax as Gil ran up to them. "Two zombies one skeleton with a broken sword. Incoming about two minutes behind me. I need to dodge them so just distract the skeleton and one zombie for a few minutes I'll tell you more later." Gil was panting hard but a strong look of determination resided in his eyes.

"You've got it! Su you will take one zombie, Remey after Su blocks it and give you the signal start going after its limbs. You'll need to calculate and be precise. Midnight let Gil dodge the other zombie then help him do what you need to do. I'll be praying for light magic and trying to take down the skeleton." Walker's staff appeared in his hand

"Oh holy lord bless me with the gift of light" Walker began praying.

Religion may not have been a major driving force in the world however many did believe in something. Some believed in the power of monsters and others in specific elements. When humans referred to the holy lord they meant a god they worshipped often who controlled light or as they called it often holy magic.

"Skills have been taken from the holy priestess system, the holy lord system, and the master of seven flames system. Please choose one skill. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

Turn undead

Holy smite

Evil consuming flame'

Three skills? The system wants me to choose one? Do all of these serve my situation? I can't even see what they do. Walker was being consumed by his thoughts but the clattering of bones forced him in to a fighting stance.

"Ugh fine evil consuming flame sounds like the more versatile skill, I choose that!"

"The user has chosen evil consuming flame from the master of seven flames system.

Evil consuming flames- 3 mana cost

A ball of White flames blessed by light pursue a single target. Once hit the flame feeds off darkness within consuming undead creatures. If any other enemies touch the flames while they burn they will also become affected. The flames are purifying. '

Walker couldn't even look at the system notification. He saw Su and Remey moving to pull a zombie away. Gil had already begun his dodging. He looked as if he was dancing around the zombie's slow swings. Every movement Gil made always left him a hair of space from the rotting flesh encompassing the zombies. The skeleton was headed right for Walker. Just as planned but walker was still not happy to see yellowish grey bones pursuing him. Something that was once human still clung to life and now wished to kill him.

The hollow eyes seemed to stare in to Walker's soul as it opened its mouth making clattering noises. The skeleton raised a jagged broken sword. Walker jumped back narrowly avoiding the slash.

Before walker could start his spell Midnight pounced on to the skeleton crushing its skull. Looking over to where Gil was he saw him still dodging the zombie. "Gil tell me when you're done I'll help you!" Walker wasn't sure why midnight didn't help Gil but wasn't able to think on it.

Looking over to Su and Remey walker saw Su blocking a broken armed zombie's helpless attacks. Remey was attempting to get a good angle to hit a leg but it was a tough situation.

"Walker now!" Gil had just spun around the zombie leaving its front open to an attack.

"Evil consuming flames!" It was a longer attack to shout but the effect was amazing. A white ball of fire immediately sprang from walkers staff. The zombie had no chance to move out of the way. The fireball encompasses the zombie's front and began traveling to its limbs. This fire was ravenous! Gil and walker watched in awe as the zombie was failing to ashes in front of them.

"That's some spell you've got there!" Gil was the first to come back to reality. Walker smiled at this new skill. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

Looking at Remey and Su the two saw the sad remains of a zombie helplessly squirming on the ground as Su used her shield to end the fight.

The two walked over a bit out of breath with a triumphant look on their faces.

'Zombie defeated 6exp multiplied to 60exp'

'Skeleton defeated 5exp multiplied to 50exp'

'Zombie defeated 6exp multiplied to 60exp'

The system was proving yet again how great the title was.

Noticing Remey giving a strange look walker turned around to see midnight crushing the skeletons bones in her teeth. "Midnight you know we have other monsters stored you don't need to eat that!" Walker was worried it would make her sick they were just bones!

However, as he started towards her to stop her Walker noticed a strange grayish white aura on her scales around her back. This caused walker to stop, this was like when she ate the darkness crystal. Was this somehow improving her scales? Why only on her back?

There were too many questions that were unanswered and walker reminded himself to find a book on specific species of dragons as soon as they returned from the test.

Once midnight had finished crunching on the bones she stood up and walked towards everyone else. With an irritated shake, Walker noticed she had some loose scales on her back. "Midnight! You're shedding your scales!!! You're starting to grow your adult scales!" Walker immediately remembered this from the book he had read smiling widely. This was an important part of her life cycle. After her new scales grew it they would grow with her. It also meant she would soon show her wings! Maybe they would hint at what kind of dragon her father was. Walker was still skeptical of why she ate the bones but this new development overshadowed it.
