The Life of the So-Called NEET Chapter 17 - Valor, Guardian of the Lifeless King

I take a deep breath and walk outside my gate, where I will fight against the horde of zombies once again. However, this time I have a goal in mind, I will explore the boss tower in the distance. For now, I need to summon my companion for this run.

"Come to me! Your king called you!"

After I say that, I can feel a large chunk of my mana is gone in a second. To summon one of the king berserkers, I need one thousand mana.

~Name: N/A~

~Job: Berserker~

~Level: 50~

~HP: 300,000/300,000~

~MP: 1000/1000~

~STR: 8,500~

~VIT: 30,000~

~INT: 100~

~LCK: 10~

They are a beast, and even when I only summon one of them, I can clear all of the areas around the boss tower just fine. Yesterday I already tested it, and from it, I got a large amount of TP and XP just letting the berserker run around killing things. However, while I really want the berserker to run around killing things, I also want to increase my skill because I cannot increase my sword and dagger skill if the berserker takes all the enemy.

I also can summon another berserker when my mana is full again. I need at least two of them before I go inside the tower.

"Go wild!"

"▂▂▃▃▄▄▄▄▅▅▅▅!!"

So here I'm sitting on the ground while my summons kills all the zombies around the area. I can summon the berserker back to my place by the command of my mind, but it will cost me fifty MP. However, it was worth it if I got surrounded by the freshly respawn zombies.

For now, I want to summon the second's berserker first before I go to the boss tower.

~One hour later~

I arrive in front of the boss tower's massive gate, and come with me are three massive berserkers holding a twin ax while wearing a wolf and bear pelt to protect themselves.

I can summon another berserker, but I want to save it for the Baptism Rite skill.

Anyway, I order my berserker to open up the door, and when the door is opened up, I see a massive room inside the tower. The size of the room is ten times bigger than the size of the tower from the outside.

I can see there are so many level five zombies roaming around, and not only that, but there are also level six zombies among the group of level five zombies. However, I don't see any boss here. Does the boss appear when I climb the stairs at the end of the room? I can see why it was closed now.

"Observe"

~Zombie (Lvl 6)~

~HP: 6400/6400~

~MP: 0/0~

~STR: 160~

~VIT: 640~

~INT: 0~

~LCK: 0~

Look like the zombie stats double up once again, but it cannot be compared to my summons. So when I order my summons to kill all the zombies, the zombie cannot do anything but get crushed against my summons' overwhelming power.

However, instead of sitting down like before, this time, I also fight against the zombie because there is so much zombie in this room and my two summons are not enough to aggro all of them.

Lucky for me, the one coming my way is a level five zombie and not the level six zombie. I still cannot kill many zombies at once because I don't have an AOE skill or magic spell. So I can only kill the zombie one by one with my bow and sword.

~ a Few hours later~

*SPLURT*

I look at the last zombie in this room before taking a deep breath. I never thought I would fight against a horde of zombies that keep spawning for a few hours in my life. I don't know how many zombies I killed, but I know that I would be dead not too long ago if not for my summon.

The overwhelming number of zombies and their ability to continually attract all the zombies inside the room makes my summons, and I cornered. Even though my summons can kill them all, my summon's main objective is to protect me, so they always stay near me when I get cornered, making them also surrounded by the zombie.

[DING]

[Congratulation for clearing the first floor of the boss tower]

[You get one Gacha Token and 10,000 TP]

[DING]

[You presence inside the boss tower has been noticed by the tower boss, The Lifeless King]

[Lifeless King sent his guardian to eliminate you]

After hearing the notification, I hear heavy footsteps coming from the closed door at the end of the room. A few seconds later, I see an Undead Knight coming from the stair and roar at my summons and I. However, there is not the only thing coming from the stairs. Four more undead knights are coming from the stairs. They are heavily equipped with armor, and both hands holding a tower shield and sword.

"Observe"

~Name: N/A~

~Job: Undead Knight~

~Level: 7~

~HP: 12,000/12,000~

~MP: 0/0~

~STR: 500~

~VIT: 1,200~

~INT: 0~

~LCK: 0~

However, they are not the last undead coming from the stairs. There is another figure walking out from the stairs. The last one coming from the stairs has a similar shape as the undead knight, but this creature is bigger and slimmer than the other. This one also did not carry any shield, but instead, he carried a two-handed long sword in its hand.

~Name: Valor~

~Job: Dark Knight~

~Title: The Guardian of Lifeless King~

~Level: 10~

~HP: 40,000/40,000~

~MP: 3,000/3,000~

~STR: 1,000~

~VIT: 4,000~

~INT: 300~

~LCK: 0~

Ah, Balls. Look at that stats! How is it fair for me! Its status is higher than even the level twelve demon! And the difference is so far ahead of the previous monster. The Jurugumo from before looks like a turd compared to this one!

However, with only this much enemy, I know that I can do it.

*Grumble*

Suddenly an earthquake happens, and a second later, I see the enemy that we just killed is coming back to life.

F*CK you, Murphy.
