Well this is boring.
Richard had finally figured out that he couldn’t sleep as an undead.
i mean what am i even supposed to do all day i can’t go out in sunlight without feeling sick and my shelter is a literal damp hole in a hill, and the only thing I can do is making shapes with black smoke. Ah well i guess i should think of a plan to continue think what did those people in survival shows and those that were isekaid to remote regions do, let’s see the first things they need is food, water, shelter and clothing yeah that should be my starting point. But i don’t think i need food or water and although this isn’t the best option for shelter it’s fine for keeping me sheltered from the sun and i can’t really make clothes without tools and i don’t know how to anyway. So the only thing I actually can do right now is practice with my mp recovery skill and my mana manipulation skill is going to increase at least but it kind of feels like one of those things those mobile games would have you pay to skip.
Meanwhile a 13 year old had a sword fight with a middle aged man.
child: this time I won’t lose.
man: is that so young master well then you better get your foot work in order.
child: what?
the child was tripped over by the man.
child: that’s not fair.
man: fairness in battle and in life is not a guarantee young master, you should always expect to be tripped over by someone who wants to get over you or keep you down.
child: you could at least let me win once in a while Greg.
Greg: I would prefer you called me Gregory and letting you beat me wouldn’t be good for you, besides young master I’m not using any skills, i always have at least one foot on the ground and all you have to do to win is to grace me with your blade.
child: well even so you’re much stronger than me.
Greg: well should I fight with my hands tied behind my backs to make it more fair then. (He smiled teasingly)
child: (pouting) you don’t have to make fun of me.
women: now now that’s no way to act as the heir to the Bright household is it.
child: mother what are you doing here.
Greg: (kneeling) madam Elizabeth what brings you out here.
Elizabeth: I’m just here to remind my son to prepare to go to the funeral for his brother that fell in an ambush by goblins on his way to help reduce the undead population with his rare light magic.
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
child: eh do I have to he was just my half brother and his mother were just a slave my father purchased so you could have more rest.
Elizabeth: now now Erick that’s no way to speak about the deceased if you’re not careful he might come back as an undead.
Erick: don’t worry mother even if he does come back I’ll slay him myself look at how much i have grown.

Greg: not even close in the capital these stats wouldn’t even get you more than a squire position.
Elizabeth: don’t be so modest you could become a knight if you complete your job.
Greg: you know it’s not easy to advance after one’s third job especially something like guard, yeah sure it gives a lot of vitality but to increase it’s skills I would have to get hurt a lot and I’m not into that kind of stuff. (He grind)
Eric: i can’t believe your etiquette is higher than mine.
Greg; well it’s just a matter of knowing when to shut up and how to talk in different circumstances.
Elizabeth: ok enough of this talk, Eric be ready to leave within the hour. (She walked away)
Eric: i can’t understand why she is holding a funeral she didn’t even like him.
Greg: and that’s why your etiquette is lower than mine.
Eric: anyway how did you get magic manipulation isn’t that a mage skill.
Greg: ah that’s a misunderstanding anyone can get any skill that isn’t racially exclusive. It’s just that it takes more effort and with the mp sickness many people take over a year to level it up.
Eric: you mean the feeling after I tried to use my magic to imbue my sword with wind.
Greg: pretty much but worse, many mages throws up when they start to level up their skills.
Eric: i guess warriors has it easier then.
Greg: not necessarily everyone gets a de buff when our health is getting low or it falls down to quickly, that’s why undead are so threatening for warriors since until the moment they die they don’t get any de buffs from injuries.
Eric: what about undead magic users.
Greg: oh don’t worry about them they are rare and although they retain their intelligence and can cast spells until they’re out of mp, they have pretty much reached the end of their potential and will be dealt with by the church, now let’s get you ready.
Eric: fine.
back at the forest at sunset.
well that was the most boring day of my life seriously what does people do after reincarnation when there’s no internet, well my skills did improve a little at least
