7 Humans

Authors Note: Sorry for not releasing any new chapters for a month. Shortly after finishing writing chapter 6 I lost my motivation to continue so I decided to take a break from writing, which turned to me deciding to drop it after a week or so. Just to be clear I don't plan on uploading daily or almost daily anymore, as I'm doing writing for fun I'll release a chapter when I get an idea or simply decide to. Don't worry I'll make sure to release a chapter at least once or twice a month. The reason for this is so I can enjoy still enjoy writing and not be forced to pump out chapters which lead to the lack of motivation. Also just want to say thanks for the reviews and comments on the series it's been greatly appreciated which I why I wrote a chapter today :p Enjoy!

'...'

As I stood dumb founded by the new numbers presented on my status, the realization dawned on me as I continued to analyze the text before me. More specifically, the 2 new skills usually related to summoning great armies of undead and sweeping across the continent.

[Necromancy F+]

-A taboo art usually related to the summoning and manipulating of the dead

[Undead Commander E-]

-A very rare skill which lends the user the ability to control and assign roles to the undead as well as give the undead under him/her the ability to evolve if conditions are met

'He he, this is perfect! With my stats and skills this would be the perfect necromancer play through, and not to mention I got that very rare skill! That god better be ready if he thinks he can just summon me into this world and get away with i-'

Before finishing my sentence I was cut short by the abrupt sound of a creaking door followed by an all to familiar sight.

'Light!'

From the back of the dome a portion of wall was sliding up slowly with the light trickling in as it continued to shift revealing the source of the light, instead of the beautiful grassland or lush forest I was expecting to see on the other side, there were 3 humanoid figures with lamps fastened to their hips via some type of rope.

As the figures continued to make their way forward I immediately hid behind a pile of ruble as to not give away my position as I continued to observe them.

The first figure that walked in was a large muscular man who was easily 6 feet tall, and carried a colossal shield spanning his entire body which from the looks of it could have easily weighted over 800 pounds. Looking closely at his face I could see clear signs of aging so I'd say he was in his late forty's at the very least, he also looked just like a tank in the fantasy games I use the play with his focus on armor and defense more then anything else.

The second figure was a female who by the looks of her body was in her early twenty's, and the exact opposite of the first figure who walked in, probably peeking at only around 5 feet 4 inches. She carried 2 diamond shaped daggers in each of her palms with the tips facing towards her as she walked. In terms of defense she had a thin black sheet covering most of her body expect the eyes similar to how a ninja back on earth would dress. From the daggers and clothes she'd be a rouge or scout in a fantasy game.

Finally the last figure to enter was a...is that a child!? The young girl who was around 4 feet tall was skipping behind the previous 2 clearly ignorant of the dangers this place held for anybody who under estimated it's monsters. She adorned a plain grey robe that clearly didn't fit on her small body, but she didn't seem to mind that the robe was scratching the floor whenever she walked. In her hands was a small staff that branched out at the end to form a small crown which housed a spherical orb that couldn't have been bigger than a tennis ball. Although she seems like a young child it's clear that she's also proficient in magic from the mage gear she's wearing.

It's good to know that their at least humans in this world, that's been nagging me the whole time I've been here.

As I continue to observe them I notice that once all 3 figures walked into the room they came to an immediate halt at the sight of the dome, fear and anxiety clearly written on their faces..well expect for the mage who seemed to be curious instead. I can't blame them though this place use to be so elegant when I first arrived, now it's stained with blood and adorned with ruble. I'm also not the biggest fan of the new look of the dome myself.

"______________ __ _____ ________ _____ ___ _ _________"

Hmm, the man in the front said something to the rouge, though I couldn't understand the words it's clear that he's cautious from the tone and expression on his face when he talked. The rouge simply glares at the man before she calls out to the mage and the trio quickly file out of the dome.

Was the sight that bad? I get that there is blood but from the way they were dressed wouldn't they have been used to it by now? More importantly didn't they leave through the same door that they came from, if I follow the passage I should be able to find my way out. Hopefully I can find some monsters on the way to test my powers on. Oh, I almost forgot! I should probably try and see if I can control the snake as an undead, it'd be useful to have minions during a fight for a multitude of reasons. Let's see, now how do I use my skills? I should just have to focus on the task right? Alright let's try that. Focusing on making the snake my minion I try channeling power through my body towards the snake, slowly words fill my head.
