Today, early in the morning, I checked my stats… I had not leveled up once since the Necromancer. Don’t blame me! I have barely found anything worth the EXP. But at least I’ve been steadily developing and practicing my abilities. And I even managed to get a few new Skills, level up most of my Skills at least once, and even get some new talents. Plus, don’t forget the Staff I got from him. It’s the one I keep equipped the most due to the Mana bonus it offers, which is stupendous… And well, the magic bonus is great as well.
Here are my stats for reference:

…
Oh right, I’ve been unlocking my inner potential with the blade too. Although I only use it when I am about to kill something to gain Sword Proficiency, as I keep the staff equipped because it expands my mana pool by quite a lot.
The staff is fantastic worthy of being a piece of B-Grade equipment at Level 10. It means the guy put a lot of dedication to the point that the weapon itself leveled up all the way to Level 10 by constantly upgrading it with materials and a blacksmith.
All types of equipment have Levels, which increase when you upgrade them with a Blacksmith’s help and use materials as the surplus to trigger the level up.
There’s also a chance it might fail, in which case the weapon might risk being destroyed in the process… which is why you gotta find good blacksmiths.
But this one already went through that painful process, so it is maxed! I will probably use it for the next 500+ chapters of my life. Hahaha!
Anyways, after a week of using the Demon Blade, I gained [Blade Slash] and then [Apprentice Swordsman] as skills. Both are enhanced by my ability to use the cursed blade, which is somewhat alive as it has evil spirits inside, the same as this staff.
Usually, people who were not allowed to wield them would be immediately attacked and cursed. And that is what happened back then, but I just was like… immune to their feeble curses and ended taming the spirits using Undead Queen, so I Uno Reverse Carded them.
Oh right, after a bit of practice, I had also acquired the [Materialized Shadow Barrier: Lv1] Skill, which is the powerful and intricate conjuration of a wall made of shadows that I can bend to my will. But, it cannot only be used to protect, but I can just launch it at an enemy in stacks and crush them with the weight of actual brick walls made of materialized shadow magic.
With these new Skills and my improved stats, I feel pretty prepared for any challenge, as long as it is manageable.
I glanced at my other secondary weapon, which I switched around with the staff, the Demon Blade.
…
[Spectral Accursed Demon Blade: Lv4 (B-Grade)]
+1000 MP
+1000 Magic
+2400 Attack
+640 Agility
+140 Dark & Death Damage
…
It might not be as good magically, but it shines with that +2400 attack! Oh baby, that looks sweet.
I use it to slashy slash and stabby stab anything in my way. Giant Wild Boars died with a single slash as they were sliced in half. Mind you; these creatures are often up to three-meters-tall… Unless a Hero-level guy shows up, I am pretty confident.
And even if a dangerous enemy shows up, I can always hide in the shadows and escape as fast as possible while saving everyone inside my Shadow Storage… so that is my backup escape plan there.
But due to this very reason, I don’t want to cause a commotion that might arise the emergence of a hero I cannot handle to come slay me. Because of that, stealthy and sneaky assassin creed-style assassinations are necessary… Although the latest games were not even about classic assassins… But anyway, it’s kind of like that. If I can just get in, kill the guys I want to kill, feel some joy from it, get some info, then that would be ideal. Storming the entire city while laughing everywhere is bound to bring a Yuusha-sama (Hero) to kill me.
“Fwahh… It was a good sleep… I feel refreshed,” Said Emeraldine, smiling cutely at me.

“Huh?”
She noticed she was wrapped like a little silkworm.
“Ungh… I can’t get out… help… Maria…” She cried out as she began to move like a worm…
“Calm down…” I sighed.
“She’s awake at last? Then let’s get going. I crave more books to read. These ones had been emptied… My mind craves more knowledge and fiction!” Lucifer complained.
He had been reading all the books I got from the bookstore to pass the time…
“I want to have fun. Can we enter the city like normal people?” Asked Partner.
“Hmm… Maybe? I guess we could pretend….”
Yeah, maybe getting around while suppressing my dark aura?
“I want to go to the bathroom first….” Sighed Emeraldine.
Ugh, the living and their bathroom problems. Who can understand them?
“Maria, there’s a giant Undead Crow glaring at me!” Emeraldine cried out.
“That’s Raven. He’s a friend. He scouts for us, so don’t worry, he’s just watching over you,” I said.
“B-But my privacy!”
“Privacy or safety? Your choice…” I said.
“Privacy!”
“Fine… Raven, come here….”
“CRAA!”
A giant one-meter-tall Undead Crow flew towards me, and I began to caress his fluffy belly.
“Who’s the cutest birb?”
“Craaa!”
“Yes, you are!”
“Craaa~”
Raven likes me to caress below his chin too. He’s such a cutie.
“Mrao…”
Kuro suddenly gets jealous.
“I have not forgotten about you….” I sighed, as I caressed his big head, and he licked my face.
“Craaa!”
“Ah, you too~ Of course!”
Hehehe… Petting cute animals is the best… I never thought I would have such cute pets in this life. Well, they’re reanimated corpses… But still!
