[Your level went up by 1.]
It only took five minutes to take care of the twenty something zombies plaguing the streets.
Picking up the loot drops I continued forward.
Although there were houses all around, I chose to ignore them since they were just for decoration and were completely empty on the inside.
I wasn't sure if these creatures still held a semblance of intelligence, but I was begining to suspect that they did since they started to run away in the as soon as they saw me.
"Tch. Why are you make things harder by running away? Now I have to chase you all individually and waste even more time! So inconsiderate."
After an hour of completing zombie genocide I finally decided to call it quits and began to make my way toward the exit.
"Not bad, I managed to make about 6 Galleons and level up 3 times. I almost have enough points to raise my WIS to 50, then I can finally start practicing those spells."
[You sense danger!]
The hairs at the back of my neck stood up suddenly.
Without a moment to waste I ducked and rolled to the side, noticing as a ray of light hit the wall where my head was supposed to be. The wall now sported fresh new hole the size of a basketball.
I looked toward the direction of the attack and noticed a zombie in wizard robes, a magic wand held in their right hand glowing with black energy.
"Oh good, I was starting to wonder if there was a magic variety of you lot," I said pointing my rapier at the undead wizard.
It raised its wand and made a downward slashing motion.
An almost invisible blade shot forward making me do a half turn to dodge it, a good thing to as it cleaved the wall behind me in half.
I looked at the sword in my hand and decided my next choice of action carefully.
Summoning my inventory, I reached in and took out an old butterbeer bottle that swished with a mysterious glowing liquid.
The undead mage gave a raspy rattle like sound before beginning its onslaught of multicolored spells.
I didn't have the slightest idea what they did, but I wasn't about to find out, so I ducked and weaved my way through the spell fire until I could spot an opening.
Suddenly I felt like the floor was swept under me and as a result, I received a cutting curse on my arm.
The spell should have completely loped it off at the elbow but thanks to [Gamer's Body] it remained attached by some unseen force before knitting back together leaving only a line of blood behind as evidence.
I threw the butterbeer bottle at the wizard when I saw it pause. It shattered on the ground in front of it causing an rapidly growing cloud of black smoke.
Seeing my chance, I gripped the handle of my sword tightly and stood up.
Then I ran.
Yep, I ran away.
Why? Well…
[Zombie Wizard LV 32]
That's why.
I used [Charge] to run up the stairs leading to the entrance of the dungeon and only stopped when I was sure it couldn't chase me.
[Wise decision making causes your WIS to go up by 1.]
[ [Physical Endurance]'s level has risen by 1.]
"Looks like I won't be able to enter until I get stronger," I said with a sigh as I switched my clothes and put away my sword.
Daphne:-
The Greengrass heiress looked at the black-haired Ravenclaw boy with a small amount of curiosity.
Charles Bell was eating with them for the second time. He had shown up 10 minutes ago with a basket filled with food and asked if they wanted to have a picnic.
Tracy had accepted for them both, so she was forced to tag along.
Suddenly Tracey sprayed pumpkin juice out of her nose as Charles finished telling his joke.
"Cough. Cough. Charles you prat! You did that on purpose!"
"What me? Never," the boy said with an all too innocent grin on his face giving the blonde a sideways wink.
This caused Daphne to giggle.
She would admit that he was certainly fun to have around, despite his Muggle-born status.
He was also very smart, which she thought was the reason why he was accepted into Ravenclaw so readily. It also helped that she thought he was rather cute.
Though if she would call him a friend, still remained to be seen.

Week 2:~
It occurred to me shortly after my close call with the undead wizard that I might not be as prepared as I had initial thought.
The more I reviewed the fight, the more obvious it became that I was sorely lacking in range attacks.
Normally this could easily be fixed by wielding my rapier and wand at the same time but the problem with that method was that I couldn't cast spells yet.
There was also the problem with how I had been fighting. I was a close-range fighter who relied on strength and speed to overwhelm my opponents.
Unfortunately, most wizards tended to fight from a distance, making them harder to hit. That added with their ability to teleport away when I got close meant that it was almost impossible to fight them normally.
For now, I need a powerful range attack and a way to keep my opponents from moving.
It was with this mindset that I upped my training in the Room of Requirements.
[ [Energy Bolt]'s level has risen by one.
Energy Bolt (Active) LV 3 EXP: 0.0%
Description: A skill that attacks by emitting mana. Attack power increases by INT. Range 20m.
Cost: 15 MP ]
The wooden dummy was blown backwards 50 ft as the ball of highly condensed mana hit it right in the chest causing a small explosion.
I pulled back my smoking hand as I bent backward into a back handspring to avoid the axe aimed at my chest.
The earth was momentarily upside-down.
