Learning experience

It's been a couple days since nix has entered the dungeon. There has been barely enough food and water just to survive.

Nix has been fighting monsters for these past few days. Only taking one day to let his body rest.

Nix has gotten used to fighting monsters. Even fighting a group of monsters. Now Nix wants to try and use magic while fighting.

Nix approaches a zombie quite similar to the first one he fought. But this one has both arms and its jaw is still fully attached.

Nix throws a rock at the zombie to provoke it. The zombie turns and looks at Nix.

When the zombie begins approaching Nix, nix uses his magic to create a shadow string. when the end of the string touches the zombie it explodes and wraps around the zombie. Nix then pulls the zombie towards him and cuts the zombies head off.

'Experiment succes. Since this worked I can use it and try to incorporate it into my fighting style. Now for the next experiment.'

Nix begins to walk around occasionally fighting a monster by itself or fighting groups of 3.

When nix finally sees another lone zombie he throws a rock at it to attract its attention.

The zombie charges at nix. Except this time nix doesn't send out a shadow string. He wraps his blade in a shadow and swings at the zombie.

The blade passes through the undead easier than expected causing nix to stumble forward.

'Experiment success. The blade is way sharper than I expected it to be. Now to fight a group while incorporating magic. But first a 30 minute break to catch my breath and refill my mana.'

--------(30 minutes later)----------

Nix gets up and continues on his way.

Finding a suitable group of monsters nix attacks with his sword cleanly cutting off the kobold head. When the one of the kobolds jumped at nix, nix shoots out a shadowy string that explodes and wraps around the kobold. The third kobold attacked nix from behind with a club aiming at his head. Nix dodged the attack without getting hit and throws the kobold wrapped around in a shadow at the kobold that attacked nix. With both of them on the ground nix wraps his magic around his blade and stabs both kobold killing them both.

'If I continue like this I'll be able to summon my scythe in no time. Time to rest for the night save my energy for tomorrow.'

And with that nix finds a safe place to rest thinking about the challenge he will face tomorrow.
