Chapter: 699

<[Description]>

[An abomination, its existence spits in the face of life and death – and they spit back. Stop it before it’s too late. Execute with extreme prejudice. Burn the bones.]

<[Please choose a role from available categories]>

[Available categories are based on the skeleton’s qualitative experience. If no choice is made, a random role will be assigned once the skeleton levels up.]

[Commander] (1)

[Guard] (1)

[Keeper]

[Warrior]

[False Hope]

“There’s no zweihander choice?” Jay raised a brow, “Hmm. I guess it only becomes a permanent choice after at least one skeleton has it as a role. It was an option for Red before, but I selected the guard role.” he guessed.

“My choices are steadily growing though.” he nodded, seeing the (1) after each of the other two roles.

So far it seemed like the warrior role had been something easy to get, perhaps even a natural progression so he didn’t even give it any thought. It simply seemed too boring.

“Now… Keeper or False Hope.” he pursed his lips, “Both are as intriguing as each other.”

“Keeper, I’m guessing, has something to do with being a light holder, but it also has a loose connection to a graveyard keeper, which basically care for the skeletons… hmm, a healer class possibly?”

While having a healer class would be nice, Jay’s skeletons always had the bone eater skill, and so far, he had not had any lack of bones – in fact, since stepping out of Losla, he had gained many more corpses than what he had used in battle – though not including the pile of bones he left under mushroom cap.

“But the false hope role seems way too mysterious to pass up.”

“False hope. What does it even mean? How would it even work for a skeleton, and what does it have to do with holding a light? Hmm…”

Jay knew in his heart that he would regret not choosing it; he was simply too curious.

“Well, I can only hope this isn’t a mistake.. But who’s going to know either way.” he shrugged.

[Choice: False Hope]

Jay felt like it was the right choice to make, and as soon as he did, Lamp dropped its ossein sword.

“Huh?”

Jay wasn’t offended over its strange behaviour, but waited to see what it would do.

With all the bones around it, Lamp had free reign.

It leant down and dug its hand through the bone pile, pulling out some long slender bones, most of them being femurs (leg bones).
