1 The Master Necromancer - Chapter 0 - Vol 1

Skraal took a deep breath, then started eating the black bread on the ground.

He was in a prison made up of vampires. He did not know exactly where he was; his memory was a little bit fuzzy. The only thing he remembered was the carriage he was in, ambushed by the vampires.

After that, everything went blank, and he opened his eyes to the small prison room. Most likely, he got hit by a magical spell or something like that.

He had no recollection of his life before the carriage ride; he only knew his name and other basic facts about the world he was in, and as time passed, he began to recall facts about the world but not his personal history.

The room had no windows, but there were still rats and other bugs that were staying and sharing the cell with him.

At that time, Skraal thought, and a black window opened in front of his eyes.

"Name" = Skraal

Level 2:

"Class" = "Skeleton Mage."

"Hidden World Class" (no consumption) (No consumption will occur for any type of spell.)

Physical Power = "1.0" (STR-Agility-Endurance)

"Gis Energy" ("1.0") (Magical-Luck-Magical-Defense)

"Gis energy is equal to how many creatures users can control and summon and how many spells they can cast at the same time."

1 ATR Point = (could be used for "physical power" or "Gis

Shop points = 0 (could be used for buying creatures or magic spells in the market or earned by killing and hunting other creatures).

After Skaal inspected his status a little bit, he shook his head and closed the status window.

Other than basic commands, he has trouble remembering most things.

The only thing that caught his attention, and he was reminiscing that it was not there before, was "Hidden-World Class."

"I have to look at my spells."

After this, though, he whispered.

"Spells"

Skraal—Spells

Conjure an arrow made of bones and shoot it towards the target.

Make a skeleton swordsman.

Skraal then finished eating the black bread, and he started thinking.

"I have to escape from this prison, or I will be food for the vampires."

He got up from the ground and started thinking of a way to get out. His spells were weak and not that strong, but the thing was, "Hidden-World-Class" changed most things. He did not remember that he had something like that. If he had, he would have been powerful and not been caught by the vampires in the first place.

When a mage uses a spell, he uses energy to cast the spell. This will make the person who used the spell tired after using it three or four times. This was the normal case.

But the "hidden world-class" thing means that his spells will cost no energy whatsoever and will be as powerful as his "Gis Energy."

This means that he could just use any spell without waiting or having any kind of resting time whatsoever.

After Skraal thought these things, he smiled, his long black hair falling in his eyes. He was 23 years old, 180 cm tall, and had a nice-toned body—not too muscled, not too weak-looking.

He was naked and a little bit frozen, but right now he had no time to think about these things.

"My best chance is to wait for a vampire to come to my cell and kill it with a bone arrow."

Skraal made a basic plan and then started waiting.

But it was no use. Nobody came to his cell at all. He thought if there was something wrong with the prison he was in, at normal times, a vampire had to come every day to check the cells. He knew this because it was not in his memory. He read this in a journal written by a traveler who got caught by escaped vampires.

After waiting for about four to five hours and still seeing no vampire come to the cell, he started to create a new plan.

If there were no guards around, I could try to break the iron fences that closed the cell, trapping me inside.

He is normally not a fool to do such a thing, but if there are no guards who could hear the sound, then it should not be a problem.

Then he waited for about ten hours to see if there were any living vampires around or not.

10 hours later

He was starting to get hungry. There were no vampires in the prison building or wherever he was right now, and there were no guards, so he did not wait too long because he was going to die because of a lack of water and food if he waited too long.

He closed his eyes and whispered.

"Skeleton Swordsman"

After his words were over, a creature the size of 170 cm, made up of completely human bones and of human stature, emerged from the ground. It had a bone sword in its hand and no light in its hollow eyes.

Skraal then ordered in his mind,

"Attack the iron bars!"

After that, Skraal ordered the Skeleton Swordsman to look at the iron fence, then used all of his powers to hit the fence.

"Ting"

The voice of a bone sword hitting the iron fences resonated inside the buildings or caves of the vampire prison.

After about one hour, Skraal noticed that the iron fence was taking damage from the Skeleton-Swordsman. He then got up from where he was sitting, pointed his hand to the iron fence where the skeleton was hitting, and whispered.

"Bone Arrow"

After he whispered, an arrow made of bone manifested in seconds and was shot towards the iron fence with accuracy and nice speed. After the arrow hit the iron fence, it turned into bone dust and did not ricochet from the fence, but the damage it did was much more than the skeleton swordsman did.

At that time, Skraal remembered something.

He is going to find out what will happen to him in the future with his new hidden class and power.
