This was the stats of his newly formed Guardian, he has to level her up from level 1, and the reason she is female is cause the body Ash used was that of Female,
"how can one even distinguish the gender of a skeleton?" Ash mumbled, as for her name, it was Skully but then he changed it to kelly.
"Now, should I teach her one of my skill or should I wait?" Ash mumbled as he looked at the pure white skeleton seating beside him.
"there is also his direction of advancement" Ash decided to develop her into a Swordsman.
"I should acquire a class change book for her" Ash thought as he returned back to Earl Zebra territory.
He sent Kelly into room where Ul clan almost fought her if not for Ash intervening and explaining them about her.
"To think we will witness the creation of Magic Monarch, Ancestors bless us" Buda shed tears seeing kelly while Hwarin examined Kelly carefully.
"I also want to learn this magic" Hwarin mumbled but since Ash was busy stopping Buda who wanted to kiss Kelly feets, he didn't heard her.
Kelly flaming eyes flickered as she heard Hwarin but since she can't talk yet she wasn't able to respond.

As Ash approached the fountain, his footsteps softened as he beheld the serene sight before him. Isabelle sat by the edge, her silhouette illuminated by the gentle glow of the moonlight filtering through the trees. The rippling waters of the fountain mirrored the tranquil expression on her face, creating a scene of ethereal beauty.
He hesitated, not wanting to disturb the peaceful moment that enveloped Isabelle like a protective veil. For a brief moment, he simply stood there, silently admiring her presence, feeling a sense of calm wash over him in her company.
As he watched, Isabelle turned slightly, her eyes meeting his with a soft smile playing on her lips.
As Isabelle motioned for Ash to come closer, a playful glint danced in her eyes, her smile transforming into a teasing grin. With a chuckle, Ash obliged, moving nearer until he was within arm's reach of her.
Giggling softly, Isabelle reached out and lightly traced a finger along Ash's cheek, her touch sending a shiver down his spine. "It seems you were captivated by my charm," she teased, her voice laced with amusement.
Ash couldn't help but laugh along with her, feeling the tension of the moment dissipate in the playful banter between them. "Perhaps I was," he admitted with a grin, meeting her gaze with a twinkle in his eyes.
With a gentle nod of acknowledgment, Ash approached Isabelle, taking a seat beside her by the fountain. Together, they sat in companionable silence, the only sounds the gentle murmur of the water and the rustle of leaves in the breeze.
In that moment, amidst the tranquil stillness of the night, Isabelle voice echoed " Thank you"
As Isabelle's words echoed through the tranquil night air, Ash felt a gentle warmth spread through his chest. Her gratitude touched him deeply, and he couldn't help but be moved by the sincerity in her voice.
"For what?" Ash tilted his head in genuine curiosity, wanting to understand the depth of Isabelle's sentiment.
Isabelle's smile softly as she met his gaze, her eyes shining with sincerity. "For letting me live again," she replied, her words carrying a weight that resonated with Ash.
Stunned by her gratitude and the profoundness of her words, Ash found himself momentarily speechless. The moonlight bathed Isabelle in a soft glow, accentuating her beauty and leaving Ash breathless in her presence.
Unconsciously, Ash found himself murmuring, "So pretty," the words slipping past his lips before he could stop them. Flustered, he quickly covered his mouth, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment. "I wasn't flirting or anything," he stammered, trying to justify his unintended compliment.
Isabelle's laughter bubbled forth, a melodic sound that filled the night air with joy. "It's okay, Ash,"
"but are you saying I am not worth flirting for?"
Ash felt a flush of embarrassment creeping up his cheeks as he realized the implications of his question. He hadn't meant to imply that Isabelle wasn't worth flirting with; rather, he was simply caught off guard by the sincerity of her gratitude.
"No, of course not," he replied quickly, his words tumbling out in a rush. "I mean, you're... you're worth more than just flirting with. You're... you're worth everything."
"really?" Isabelle asked.
Ash nodded with a red face.
"Pfft~~, you seem like a cute hamster now" Isabelle chuckled as she said.
"I will be waiting" Isabelle suddenly said as Ash received a notification.
