Chapter 13: Do You Desire to Have a Soul?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
York depleted the health of the Cave Spider bit by bit.
In just half a minute, Ghost Slash’s speed reduction effect ended.
The Cave Spider suddenly accelerated and approached York.
“Come on, monster!”
York was fearless. The HP of the Cave Spider had dropped below half. The preliminary battle plan was completed.
Now, they would compete to see whose life was tougher!
York used the momentum of his charge to avoid the fatal bite of the Cave Spider. He raised his bone sword and swung it.
In an instant, dark green blood spurted out, and a huge spider leg was chopped off.
“Rip!”
The Cave Spider howled madly as another spider leg swung at York like a whip.
Clang!
There was a metallic sound as York raised his sword to block the attack.
However, the tremendous force still sent him flying, crashing into the rock wall.
The Cave Spider had lost its mind. Like a mad bull, it charged at York.
York didn’t have time to catch his breath. He rolled away in fear and barely dodged the attack.
Dong!
The rock wall caved in, rubble flew everywhere, and dust filled the air.
“How much power does this monster have?!” York gritted his teeth.
He could not fight the monster head-on, so he had to use his advantage.
His mind raced.
The Cave Spider lunged at York again.
It understood that this Skeleton monster was a little strange. Its poison had no effect on it.
Even so, it would never let this skeleton go.
The dignity of a Boss-level monster did not allow it to retreat.
It could still use its claws, its fangs, and its body to tear this tiny ant into pieces.
This battle would not end until the final victor was decided.
The Cave Spider was faster than York, so it would be impossible to escape.
Hence, York made his choice. He charged forward when the Cave Spider came at him.
When the two of them were about to collide, York lowered his body and avoided the attack of the Cave Spider. At the same time, he stabbed his sword into its abdomen.
Slash!
York grabbed his giant sword and charged forward. He used the kinetic energy to tear a huge hole in the Cave Spider’s abdomen.
Dark green blood splattered everywhere, and the stinky innards dyed York’s skeleton body.
York leaped from the spider’s back and circled high into the sky. The cold aura of the undead gathered on the giant sword.
With a loud sound, the giant bone sword smashed into the body of the Cave Spider.
However, the beast still had the strength to try and shake York off its back.
York grabbed the Cave Spider’s back with all his might and stabbed his sword into the spider again and again.
“Die! Die! Die! Die!”
York was in a frenzied state as he vented his anger recklessly. From time to time, he would laugh maniacally.
….
After an unknown period of time, the Cave Spider finally exhausted its strength and collapsed to the ground, panting weakly.
York was not careless. He cut off the spider’s head with his sword before he felt relieved.
“You killed the Cave Spider.”
“You received 3,000 experience points.”
“Detected that you are currently in the midst of an evolution mission and cannot receive any experience points.”
“The [Heart of the Strong] mission has been completed. You have obtained the qualification to become an Elite Skeleton monster.”
“Would you like to evolve?”
He didn’t choose to evolve immediately. Killing the spider used a lot of energy. In the second level of the catacombs, he could encounter danger at any time.
During evolution, he would temporarily enter a state of unconsciousness, so he had to find a safe place before evolving.
York had a good idea.
After returning to the Spider Cave, York opened the data page.
The Cave Spider was originally the king of the second level of the catacombs. Its cave was regarded as a forbidden area by other undead creatures.
Even though York had killed the spider, its scent remained in the cave.
Thus, its cave could be said to be the safest place in the entire second level.
He began to evolve.
Suddenly York blacked out, his consciousness momentarily stripped from his body.
When he opened his eyes again, York immediately sensed the change in himself.
His skeleton body became huge, reaching a height of 2.5 meters.
The color of the bones changed from the original grayish-white to ivory-white, giving off a strange eerie feeling.
York’s attributes had changed.

[Deterrence of the Dead]
Description: High-Level Undead Skill, causes bloodline suppression on monsters below your grade, reducing all attributes by 20%, increases effect on non-undead creatures by 50%.
It was a pretty good skill. This type of debuff skill didn’t deal any damage directly.
However, in the later stages of the game, they were more powerful, especially when facing Boss-level monsters. It was simply a godly skill.
However…
York tilted his head in confusion.
What was this [Taboo]?
Even though York played The New Age for three years, he had never seen such a strange talent.
Curious, York felt he clicked on it and checked it out.
[Taboo]
Description: Do you desire to have a soul?
