Crazy Necromancer in the Ruined Tower
Chapter 84: Alone in the dungeon
"Soul reap"
The sound of a young man shouting at the white fog shaped like a man, who had a huge constitution like a giant but wasn’t one.
Ding!

----------------------------------
Shiva looked the Skill description and sighed..."Sigh...."
He took up the stone in his semi-plasma like hand and scratched a line on the rock.
thuck!
He threw the stone to side as he started to drift away! as he got far and far from the stone more and more lines were visible scratched on the stone.
It has been six months!
"Damn! its killing me"
It has been six months since he entered the dungeon.
At first he was enthusiastic using the skill once a day to capture the souls of the wondering creatures in the Dungeons!
But as the time passed by, he slowly started to loose motivation...
I mean all he to do was using the skill once a day, he had nothing else to do, even if he wanted to do something there was just nothing else for him to do!
He couldn’t even use any of his skills when he was in his soul form and to make thing worse the proficiency of the skill only increased by 0.5% per use.
The once desolate place with yellow river flowing in the middle was now bustling with various monsters and peoples.
It took him five whole months just to increase it’s proficiency to 100% and to evolve it to S rank.
He ran towards the goat in the hope of capturing him only to came flying once again with foam in his mouth.
"Damn! that goat ba*tard"
But the worst thing was that he couldn’t even sleep when he was in his Soul form!!
With nothing to do, unable to even sleep he drifted throughout the Dungeon, and the weird monsters and peoples in there wouldn’t even talk to him like he wasn’t even there. If it isn’t for Nicholas and Old Sage frequently talking with him, he would have long lost his mind.
Actually it was a part of the test to measure his mental fortitude but it became meaningless for Shiva who had Old Sage and Nicholas with him.
The only good thing that happened was that the cooldown of the Skill reduced from One day to twelve hours, but the increase in proficiency also decreased to 0.25% .
"It would take at least another six months to increase it’s rank again"
He looked at the two moons hanging on the sky.
"If that doesn’t work....Then I guess I will have to try in my next life"
He smiled wryly,
{This isn’t like you brat!} The old sage said.
Shiva who heard him as he thought ’ I am already feeling like a sh*t being alone in here for six months even with them but how the hell did he manage to stay sane after hundreds of years in the Tower?’ 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Old man, How did you manage to live alone even after hundred of years in the 7th floor?"
{Well....}
He seemed oddly shy to answer the question.
"Is there are any entertainment methods?"
{You know there were many that challenged the 7th floor for a day so I never got bored or anything, and even I get bored, I still had my body, I used to think about the beautiful women that challenged the floor and jer*ked off...}
"You disgusting Old pervert"
Nicholas: {Yuck!!}
****
In a some Underground place of the 1st floor.
people were locked in individual cages. The rooms had nothing but a bed and a pot of water.
"It has been five months"
A man in the cell who was also one of the Shadows said as everyone’s attention was drawn towards him.
"There hasn’t been any news from, Master"
Everyone put their head down at his words.
"Maybe he doesn’t need us any longer"
The seed of doubt was starting to sprout in everyone’s heart.
It was normal considering that they weren’t even contacted in five months even once.
They were completely separated from the outside world, it was difficult for them to just stay low here, they were more than capable of breaking away from the imprisonment but what they feared was that freak, that damn clown if they escaped from here and got caught by that freak then it was over for them.
But they were even losing that fear as more and more time passed by, their was never been a case where someone stayed inside any dungeon of first ten floor for 5 months. so they were seriously doubting if their master betrayed them and ran away after getting what he needed from the Dungeon.
"I am done with all this waiting! I am sick of staying here! and it doesn’t seem like he would come for us. I am going outside who will come with me?"
A thin man stood up as he stamped his leg on the ground!
"Rock, don’t lose your patience, He will definitely come for us"
A women who was in next cell said looking at him.
But even before the man could say something, another one of the Shadows got up, "I am coming with you"
That was the last thing need to their patience to run out as 25 out of the 32 members got up deciding to leave.
"Kaiser, you are still a child and you have bright future don’t waste it staying in this prisons, let’s go!"
The same man who spoke up first told the child who was sleeping in his cell but he was silent!
The silent drew everyone’s attention as they waited for his answer.
"Master!, he said...."
He slowly got up as he continued.
"He said to wait for him"
He turned his head as his eyes glowed in then darkness...
Everyone got chills at his gaze and lowered their head in embarrassment.
The Six other who choose to stay with him smiled at his answer.
"Tch! fools"
The man clicked his tongue and decided to just go with the ones who decided to come with him.
*****
(On the 18th floor)
William slashed off a monster which looked like a mix of a chicken and a snake.
His summons were all around him fighting different types of monsters.
The map he got, it showed the presence of a Origin stone on 21st floor, so he was currently trying to rush towards the 21st floor as soon as possible.
"Soon....."
He wiped off the blood of monster on his sword.
"Soon...I will make to get my hands on it"
