Chapter: 309
“What would happen to my minions…” Jay looked at his undead loyal servants.
This took Jay by surprise, and it was the last thing he expected: a specialisation choice.
Nevertheless, he entertained the ideas.
Jay could only imagine since he had only ever heard of the normal bone-type necromancers, which were simply called necromancers.
With the blood choice, he pictured grotesque hulking masses of flesh, squirting blood and puss everywhere, large flesh golems that pierced their enemies with protruding bones and ate them to grow the flesh bigger. Large and slow, vulnerable to fire.
He even imagined multiple faces of people that had been absorbed into the back of the flesh golems, speaking to him as one voice; a shiver went up his spine.
“Eugh, no.. not blood…” he quickly shot down the first option, rubbing his neck.
Next he tried to picture a spirit necromancer; imagining wisps, spirits, wraiths and wailing ethereal ghosts that could drain the life of anything they touched; cursing and terrorising the lands, leaving only mummified corpses and shrivelled plants in their wake; unstoppable when faced with physical weapons.
“Hmm… but what if I come across magic immune enemies? Or if I need protecting? They would probably be weak to magic too…”
While Jay pondered these things, he could only guess at what would happen. After all, the world has never seen either a blood or a spirit necromancer. There was spirit-type magic, but practitioners were usually executed as it was quite similar to soul-type magic, which was a threat.
“Perhaps I would be the first of either type of necromancer… maybe monsters aren’t given the option to choose?” he pursed his lips. These choices didn’t appeal to him, but being the first had its own sort of appeal.
“Hmm. Bone seems to be somewhere in between flesh and spirit… it’s either the best of both worlds, or the weakest of both… I suppose though that it is its own thing.”
Jay looked at his skeletons, working frantically to bring him his things.
“Spirits probably wouldn’t be able to do that… and bloody flesh creatures probably wouldn’t be that fast… these guys are strong enough at the moment anyway; compared to other adventurers I’m leaps and bounds ahead of them.”
Jay felt like the decision was obvious, but it was a huge choice.
He sat silently thinking over everything for the next thirty minutes, and his skeletons had finished gathering by now.
Deep down, he knew what the right choice was – he was just stalling.
Soon, he shook his head at his own indecision, as he knew what he wanted.
Jay knew that if he picked either blood or spirit, he would have a yearning regret in his heart, and as he was about to lock in his choice, he felt a wave of excitement rise in his heart, and he knew this choice was right.
“Bone. I will choose bone. It’s obvious.” he smiled.
Jay opened his notifications and selected [Bone]
