3 Exploring
'Are there any other monsters here!' After what seemed like a few hours of strolling around in my undead body nothing happened. NOT EVEN A SOUND! Although I wasn't tired physically as I had the skill [Undead Endurance] my mind was still going numb. Well would you even consider a hollow skull as still having a mind? On that note how did my body even function? Was it Magic? Ugh. So many things I don't know.
Activating Auto-Pilot on my body I just listened to my footsteps and walked, while paying attention to the slightest disruption. A few hours passed, then a few days, heck! Maybe even a few years! At this point I've last track of time so the only thing I could do was keep pushing forward.
He he, maybe I'll even find the damn exit at this rate. But would I want to go outside? Would I burn in the sun like a Vampire? Wouldn't the undead be closer to humans than Vampires? Aren't they just human skeletons? Or are they manufactured? All this thinking is numbing my non-existent brain.
"Sqweek"
The small and quite sound ricochet across the cold hard walls.
'HUH!'
'Has god finally shown me his mercy!'
Taking back manual control I was determined to find the source of the sound. Attempting to follow the sound only confused me further. 'This place is a damn maze!' Determined to find the sound I didn't rest and eventually came to a large empty room.
The room was a giant circle with carvings on the walls. The carvings seemed to be some sort of language but as a skeleton with no language skill I couldn't read anything. Even if I could read the native language the carvings seem to be some sort of ancient runes. The floor also had a unique design which had a smaller circle in the middle and bigger ones as it went further then the middle, similar to a target back on earth. The ceiling was shaped like a dome with paintings of what appeared to be a Man riding a chariot fighting with a demon riding on a black dragon. The man on the chariot seemed heroic while the Demon appeared sinister and evil.
'This reminds me a lot of the Hero fighting the Demon lord, wait what was this place?'
Being captivated by the circular dome I completely forgot about why I came here. A quick scan of the area with my eyes revealed nothing but the empty room. Then a quick flash of light illuminated the walls as a snake bit into an unfortunate mouse.
'Wai-, What?!'
The snake was at least 2 meters long with scales that looked as hard as iron! The eyes were bloodshot with small black slits. The entire thing must weight a ton! As the large jaws of the snake gulped down the unfortunate prey it looked straight at me. All the while its killing intent continued to ooze out.
Panicking I tried to analyze the snake and to my surprise it worked

'Just my stupid luck! You forsaken god! This isn't even a fair fight! I swear if I see you in heaven I'll drop kick you back into hell!'
Paying no heed to my *Clacking* the snake prepared to lunge at me.
'This is really bad! I wont be able to out run it and I don't stand a damn chance against this abomination! Think! THINK! Nothing...well this is the end of my journey. No! Stay positive! I can't die yet! I wanted a monster to fight and here's my chance! I'll pound this thing back to the underworld if I have to!'
Resolving myself, the snake wastes no time and launches towards me like a spring, it's bloodshot eyes piercing my very soul.
This is the start of my very first battle.
