Death of an Arrogant Prick; I Reincarnated as a Skeleton? Chapter 60: The Monster Domain [19]
BZZZ!The Night Reaver’s presence spread through the world like a Divine, no, a descent of the Profane.Silence. Deafening, absolute silence.They dared not move.Vaelin Duskwhisper and Garrick the Red were not the best that their various races could offer, but both were battle-hardened warriors, veterans that had soaked their blades in the blood of beasts and monsters.With their supernatural senses, in one look, they could tell that this towering monster was just a level 15.And yet, yet… they felt like they were stuck in a quagmire.The aura of this monster was profane, suffocating.It seemed to curl around their necks like the body of a Python, crushing their windpipe, taking the breath out of them.It felt like looking at the Devil himself.Vaelin and Garrick didn’t speak. They didn’t need to.Their eyes met, and then…They moved.WHOOSH!Vaelin vanished into a blur of motion, his body slipping into shadows, every step a controlled explosion of speed and agility.Garrick’s boots

KABOOM!Clinton sat on the ground, dazed, staring, thinking.‘Is the world… coming to an end?’He stirred.His eyes blinked; blue flames weak in his hollow sockets. Pain rippled through his entire being; every joint fractured, every rib fractured. But he was awake.They say when Apex Gods fight, mortals cower in fear.Waking up and seeing what he saw, this was the first thought that came to Clinton as he stared in awe and horror.He saw the sky split with light.He heard the cries of battle, the sounds of gods clashing.And he felt it.The Night Reaver’s presence; still dominant, still alive, still coming.All it took was one moment for him to understand what happened, he was smart. ‘They took me, and met a true Apex Predator of the Monster Domain!’Clinton didn’t know how to feel about that. He didn’t know if he should feel lucky that his hunters didn’t succeed in abducting him, taking him to the World of Light, or if he should feel doomed to meet such a harrowing predator.While Cli

Blink!A groggy pair of eyes snapped open in a completely dark world.The world was so dark, or not?It was just his eyes, they struggled to adapt to the lighting in this place.Clinton squinted his eyes as he tried to make sense of his surroundings. ‘Where the hell am I?’‘What happened?’For some reason, he could not stand up, he was too weak to stand up.Lying on the ground or wherever this was, feeling lazy all of a sudden, Clinton tried to grope around for the boobs of whatever girl definitely laid beside him but to his shock, he found no boobs to grab.“…!” Clinton was shocked till he was speechless.‘What?!’‘No boobs?!’ Now, he was horrified. ‘What the hell happened?!’The last thing he could remember was overtaking that prick, Frank at the last moment, clinching first position for his school again, Landmark Academy and making them 3-peat champions, right?As soon as he thought of this, his eyes narrowed, right?And then, he shuddered in fear. ‘F*ck!

Death of an Arrogant Prick; I Reincarnated as a Skeleton? Chapter 4: Mission impossible; survive
“Tsk!” The Holy Knight who already unsheathed its sword clicked its teeth in annoyance. “It escaped”.“Now, we’ll have to explain to the Lord”. Another one chipped in.To confirm, the 3 Holy Knights went closer to the edge of the World of Light, close to the abyss to peep in.Peeping, they saw the skeleton at the very bottom of the chasm.They gave up on him immediately at the sight but one of them commented. “He won’t survive for long; his own kind will devour him”.“They’re cannibals after all”.And then, the 3 Holy Knights turned to leave.…“F*ck!” Clinton cursed under his breath.At the bottom of this chasm, Clinton was in agony.The pain he was feeling was not even from the damage that he suffered itself. Rather, he felt that coming in contact with the white energy of that Holy Knight, whatever it is was what caused him this agony.Coming in contact with that white energy felt like darkness coming into contact with light, or like water coming into contact with fire.It was an en
Death of an Arrogant Prick; I Reincarnated as a Skeleton? Chapter 5: Surviving is winning, Franklin
‘Surviving is winning, Franklin’.‘Everything else is bullshit, fairytales spun by people afraid to look life in the eye’.‘Whatever it takes kid…, survive!’At this moment, Clinton felt himself resonating so much with these famous words from NPC game characters in his previous world.At this moment, to him, surviving really was winning.Heck, to him right now, surviving was everything.That f*cking Angel Athena sent him here to die right?Well, he would spite her and survive.To escape the 3 different species of enemies that his miserable undead system’s identification showed to him, Clinton had no choice but to disassemble his skeleton body again to hide under the roots of the tree.And since he made that choice, it had been 4 hours already.It was already more than 4 hours since he reincarnated into this world as a freaking lowly skeleton.Hidden under the roots of the tree, all Clinton wanted was to survive.For the first 2 hours, it was all smooth and easygoing until the already
Death of an Arrogant Prick; I Reincarnated as a Skeleton? Chapter 6: Survival
Every 10 minutes, Clinton would lose +0.1 of his total health points and since he had only 0.4 total health points remaining, he was on a time limit.Unless his situation changed, Clinton had only 40 minutes to live.The threat of death increased his yearning for survival even more, and for those final minutes of his life, Clinton planned for the first time in his life.He planned extensively, he schemed, he plotted to survive.During the first 20 minutes, remaining patient inside his lair under the roots of the decaying tree, Clinton observed every beast that passed.By now, he could tell already that this level of the dungeon was filled with only 3 species of creatures, the goblins, the undead trees, and the ogre.First sight of an Ogre and Clinton removed that specie from his planning.Till now, the weakest Ogre that he had seen was level 3.As a level 0 undead and considering that this was going to be his first fight since reincarnating, Clinton wanted nothing to do with something

Chapter 59: The Monster Domain [18]
When the Skeleton entered its domain, it watched, in silence. Unmoving, too lazy, or maybe too exalted to step down to probe.While the skeleton settled into its domain, hunting, crafting, building a bastion, turning itself into an apex predator, it watched.When the skeleton started thriving, it also watched.And when the Human and Elf entered its domain, it also watched, with even greater intrigue this time.It was not everyday that new beings tended to enter its domain. It was bored to death in this world where it was the King, the sole Apex, and so when newcomers come, it tended to play with them for entertainment.And that was why it stayed, and watched.It watched the Elf and Human with unflinching focus, taking them as the newest source of entertainment in its boring world.It watched their every movement across its domain like a creep, stalking them silently from the shadows.It watched them move with professional ease. It watched them hunt, track, slaughter its minions, its m
Chapter 58: The Monster Domain [17]
The fight continued, brutal and relentless as everything exploded in a hurricane of steel led by the Elf and Human.BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!Loud booming sounds reverberated from inside Clinton’s bastion, the walls of the bastion struggling to resist the force of impact of the brutal battle.Clinton used every trick in his book, every card in his arsenal.He wove between shadows, utilizing his inhuman agility, but Vaelin matched him step for step, anticipating his movements with a frightening success rate.He tried to counterattack, but Garrick’s sheer physicality kept him on the defensive, each strike of that monstrous greatsword forcing him to retreat.Clinton was under pressure, all his bones groaning under the pressure.‘F*ck! F*ck it all!’‘What did I do to deserve this?!’‘Can’t they just leave me alone?’‘I-if only my Vampire passive skill was active…, but I need to kill first’.His red ember eyes gleamed, filled with desperation.The desperation to keep his life and freedom pushed hi
Chapter 57: The Monster Domain [16]
Clinton strode toward his bastion, feeling lighter than he had in days.His hunt had been successful, his weapons had never felt more refined in his grip, and he was finally beginning to grasp the brutal ecosystem of the Monster Domain. He was no longer just surviving; he was thriving now.And he was somehow making it look easy.His undead lips curled into something that would have been a grin if he still had flesh to stretch over his bones.As he walked, he hummed an old tune from the fragments of his past life.“Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb…”“Mary had a little lamb, and it’s mane was white as snow…”Clinton inclined his head, chuckling. “Is that how it went? Mane? Do lambs even have manes?”He was carefree, he felt free, he felt powerful.‘Ah, what a beautiful day…’ he thought, feeling at peace.But the moment he stepped inside his bastion; the world shifted.Bzzz!It happened instantly.A whisper of air, too quick, too precise.A feeling, like the weight of a th
Chapter 56: The Monster Domain [15]
Vaelin Duskwhisper and Garrick the Red’s POV…It was already days since Vaelin Duskwhisper, the Elvin assassin and Garrick the Red, the human mercenary descended to the Monster Domain as they navigated its treacherous expanse, tracking their target.The Monster Domain was unlike any world they had set foot in before.Vast, untamed, and seething with primordial violence, it was a land that belonged to monsters alone.Even the air itself was different, thicker, charged with an oppressive energy that weighed upon the senses like an unspoken threat.Vaelin Duskwhisper and Garrick the Red had braved many battlefields, but even they tread carefully here.They had entered the Monster Domain days ago, armed with only fragmented clues left in the wake of their quarry- the elusive undead craftsman.Every step forward was a test of endurance and guile, for the deeper they ventured, the more hostile the environment became.Tracking a skeleton should have been simple. Even with no heartbeat, no sce
Chapter 55: The Monster Domain [14]
It was a new day in the Monster Domain.Clinton stepped out of his bastion, his skeletal frame gleaming under the dim light that filtered through the thick canopy of the Monster Domain.Unlike before, when every step had been cautious and wary of apex predators, this time he moved with the confidence of a seasoned hunter.After crafting new weapons, repairing damaged ones, upgrading his best weapon, and repairing his bastion for a whole day yesterday, now, he was ready to enter the depths of the Monster Domain again to hunt.His newly upgraded Magedon, Light Slayer pulsed faintly in his grip, its power source, the very heart of the Dreadclaw Behemoth now fully integrated.With every movement, he could feel the weapon’s latent power thrumming through his bones, waiting to be unleashed.Today was different.No apex predators, no reckless challenges.He wanted just a pure hunt, a methodical extermination of the lesser creatures that roamed the Monster Domain.Today was not a daredevil da
Chapter 54: The Monster Domain [13]
When Clinton forged the Light Slayer, he found himself in a special state of mind that he had never experienced before then.Just after suffering the heartbreak of an identity crisis, shunned and rejected by humans, while dealing with that, he still had to fight for his life against the same humans who came after his life.With his life on the line, he started forging his weapon.He forged Magedon, Light Slayer in a life and death scenario, a special state of mind where the result of his work had the capacity to decide his life and death.Clinton was not in quite that unique state of mind at this moment, but compared to that time, his craftsmanship skills already improved by a lot.Not just that, having accepted his identity as a skeleton already, his conviction when it came to surviving was firmer than ever before.And since crafting a better, stronger weapon would help in his survival, Clinton approached this new test with a determined mind.He entered a special state of focus where
Chapter 53: The Monster Domain [12]
Absorbing the apex power stored in the Dreadclaw Behemoth’s heart was a totally unknown theoretical framework that Clinton had no prior empirical experience with, still he wanted to test it out.And the results?It was actually a success.By absorbing part of the power stored inside the heart, Clinton felt his skeleton physique improve. His bones became denser, harder to break.His energy regeneration also improved.He could now partially store latent energy from fallen enemies, potentially unlocking new abilities in future battles.And finally and most important of all, Clinton felt his connection to the mystical energy of this dungeon become closer than ever before.He could feel it, the subtle connection with the arcane.He shivered in excitement. “Is this… m-magic?” He stammered.Clinton had no idea if he was right but it didn’t matter, the possibility of it alone was enough to leave him extremely excited.Even after all these gains, there was still a lot of power contained inside
