“So, tell me, what’s her name?” Celestia asked Jelly as they returned to her room as Jelly was writing the address to the wise Siren Jelly mentioned.

“Her name is Wisdom Pearl, and she has a personal hatred for ponies. You don’t forget the species who saw you naked & tried to harpoon you while sunbathing in a shallow saltwater pool.” She explained as Celestia covered her face and was annoyed to hear that. “Except…” Celestia moved her fingers to peek “They were a group of mares who hated creatures prettier than them.” Celestia was confused by hearing that.

“Okay… can you tell me their location and I’ll have a squad of guards to arrest them.” She said as Jelly made a face that spoke ‘Too Late’. “What did she do to them?” She asked.

“Not her, Melvin.” Spoke Jelly. “Her pet Great White Shark.” Celestia’s eyes widen hearing that

“Why would she have a shark like that, for a pet?” She asked.

“Well, why do you have a pet like that Phoenix?” Jelly replied as they turned to see a bird that was losing all its feathers and looking sick.

“Touche and her name is Philomena. Also-”

“Yeah, I know it’s a phoenix. I’m not gonna feel sorry for you when you turn to ashes.” The phoenix huffed at Jelly ``Because I’m having a DeJa’Vu feeling that phoenix is the same phoenix that’s been harassing me when I was still a child. I help it by treating it, it died in front of me as it got reborn and laughed at me.” She said as Philomena looked away like it was trying to hide something from Celestia who narrowed her eyes.

“I wondered why I heard screaming from a child when you flew back to me.” Said Celestia angrily “Philomena, I’ll be keeping you on a tight leash from those pranks of yours.” Philomena frowned that she must try to freak out rookie guards from now on. “We’ll see Wisdom Pearl tomorrow but for now. It’s time for bed.” She said as Jelly entered Celestia’s personal tub.

“Good night, Princess.” Said Jelly as Celestia got comfy in her bed.

“Tell me, is Solo sleeping?” She asked as Jelly paused, as she sank in the tub. “Ugh… I worry for that boy. He’ll get himself in over his head. You don’t mind if I personally give him punishment to fit his actions?” She asked as Jelly popped out.

“Well… if you don’t bring him in or do something indecent, then okay. Consider this as punishment for leaving his fiancé alone.” Said Jelly as Celestia smiled since Solo Level had a record and a criminal history of assaulting the guards. “I just hope he’s okay.” She worried as sank under and looked at the ceiling.

“Please… be okay young Solo.” Said Celestia.

“Holy shit…” Said Solo as he was healing his wounds as he saw the boss.

[Onyx Abyss Tybalt]

Solo took a step back and looked down to see a long red energy line on the ground as a screen appeared.

The Boss Fight will begin as you cross this line. Prepare for combat or die by your arrogance

“Wise warning.” Said Solo as he used his magic to heal himself.

[Heal]x50

MP: 4089/6089

[Heal] unlock [Mid-Heal] Skill

[Mid-Heal] – (100 Mana) – Can recover 500 HP and heals any cuts, wounds, and minor scars.

“Time to calm myself from my Fatigue.” Solo got in a lotus position to lower his fatigue.

80 Minutes Later
[Skill: Meditation] has been learned

[Meditation LV1] – (No Mana Required) – Lowers Fatigue by 1 per minute.
MP: 6089/6089
Fatigue: 4

“I better wait for 4 more minutes. Just in case.”

4 More Minutes Later
Fatigue: 0

“Now I am prepared to fight and win.” Said Solo as he wielded both the Nero’s Fang & Dark Assassin’s Dagger in both hands.

“Now… Onyx Abyss Tybalt!” The Knight on the throne looked up as Solo crossed the line as it vanished. “I challenge you to a Duel of Death.” Onyx Abyss Tybalt gets up from the throne as he unsheathes a large broadsword. It marched towards Solo as he stood in front of Solo. He swung the Broadsword back along with Solo Level swung his Assassin’s Dagger as they both clash blades as they both jump back. Tybalt appeared in front of Solo as Tybalt swung his Broadsword as Solo, but he ducks to avoid getting his head sliced off as Onyx Abyss Tybalt just circles around him. Solo gulped as he never met a humanoid opponent this powerful.

Fatigue: 50

(“Damn it! I can’t be scared or allow fear to lower myself. I am no longer XXXX XXXXXXX. I am Solo Level, born from a Unicorn & Pegasus professional assassins, brother of 2 and fiancé of the most sexy… FUCKING WAIFU LUST! FOCUS DAMN IT!!!”) Solo turned to Tybalt and blocked his attack and slashed him but saw that his slash didn’t even make a scratch. “!!!” Tybalt pushed Solo with the strength of his sword as the force did minor damage to him.

-50HP

Solo stood his ground as he and Tybalt continued to clash with their blades with nothing stopping their focus. Solo jumped to the walls as he ran across it towards the throne as Tybalt ran towards the throne and jumped towards Solo.

[Flight]
[Metal Skin]

Solo’s wings appeared from his back as he avoided Tybalt’s jab and tackled him as he grabbed him and dived to the ground. Solo jumped off as he kicked away Tybalt’s Broadsword to the wall as he sent his daggers to his inventory and pummeled Tybalt with his fists. Tybalt grabbed Solo’s fist and crushed it but Solo only felt little pain.

-40HP

“Nice try.” He said as Solo headbutted Tybalt with the intent of taking out his eye, but he dodged it as he pushed Solo back. Solo slid back as he backflipped to land on the throne. “SHIT!!” He yelled as Onyx Abyss Tybalt charged at him.

Back at Canterlot Castle
Celestia got up and sneaked her way towards the kitchen for her usual midnight snack. She avoided her own guards since they have a habit of alerting the castle of Celestia’s location for her safety. “Okay, so if I make it to the freezer, I’ll have my secret ice cream…” She stopped and realized that someone was literally sleeping in the freezer, Azza. “Oh my… forgot about our dragon guest who is resting in a room below the temperature room.” She said as she managed to enter the kitchen to discover Azza was eating a tub of ice cream. Azza turned to see Celestia as she gulped nervously as she swallowed the ice cream.

“Uh… I got the munchies for a snack.” She said as Celestia grabbed a chair.

“I understand as well.” She said as she sat down next to her.

“I guess even princesses have some flaws that my bro keeps saying are true.” Reply Azza as Celestia pulled out a tub of ice cream from the freezer with her magic.

“Despite his… youthful rebellion to my rule; I can find him both a blessing and a curse.” She said as Azza raised her brow.

“Really? I figure some ponies who are against ponies or creatures like him would be rubbed out of existence.” She said as Celestia narrowed her eyes.

“True but given his… abilities, I doubt that will even happen.” She replies truthfully. “To be honest, I find him to be the exact reincarnation of his ancestor who I once had a crush on.” She said as Azza looked disgusted.

“Eww… I hate that lovey-dovey crap. Don’t get why nearly every creature on this planet likes that mental disease?” She said as Celestia chuckled.

“You’ll know when you’re older. Also, about Solo…”

“He’s in another one of those dungeons.” Azza said as she knew about it. “I guess it’s his thing.” She said as Celestia wondered about it herself.

“I still remember the 1st time I’ve been there. The area, the creature and magic flowing through that place; I could never forget it, even if I tried.” She said as Azza placed her claw on her arm.

“It’s alright. I’ve been through there as well and it was intense.” Said Azza as Celestia looked worried. “Don’t worry, he did all the fighting and Jelly. Also, he promises me an accessory that makes me immune to fire. I got some asshole Fire Dragons to get back at for frightening me and nearly melted me.” She said as she cracked her knuckles as Celestia looked worried for her as she turned to her. “Also, I got one question that’s been bugging me. How come that school with the hatching a Dragon Egg is always a Fire Dragon? I’m guessing different elemental dragons are harder to negotiate than Fire Dragons.” She said as Celestia frowned.

“Oh, you have no idea. Also, your conditions need to stay low until you reach the mature age of an Ice Dragon in 2 years, yet I’m impressed Solo managed to keep you cool throughout your childhood.”

“He's more mysterious than normal ponies. I mean he’s not afraid to fight or run away from danger.” Said Azza as Celestia nodded “Also he did beat up your ‘Strong’ guards as I use the term loosely.” Celestia frowned at that.

“The Canterlot Guards might have gotten sloppy after Solo’s 1st fight with them & reveal some racial hatred within them and my ponies.” Said Celestia and smile “Plus I’m thinking of creating a new council made up of creatures of a varied species.” She said as Azza smirked.

“That will annoy them jerks plus if they don’t like it, I’ll freeze them with one breath.” She said with a cold grin as Celestia looked worried. “Also, one question that’s been bothering me. Are there any other Dragons that don’t breathe fire?” She asked as Celestia nodded.

“There are but not in a good relationship with ponies. I know of one, the Wind Dragons. They threaten to unleash a massive hurricane on Equestria after a noble fashionista wants to use their fur to make a coat.” She said as Azza frowned.

“That’s one nightmare of a forgiveness you had to do to get them to stop.” She said as Celestia frowned.

“I had to promise them high altitude areas to make them happy.” She said as Azza listened to Celestia’s chatter.

Back in the Dungeon
*HUFF* *HUFF* *HUFF*

HP: 520/1830
MP: 3050/6089

Solo was panting as he was on the throne as Tybalt marched towards him as the sword came to him. Tybalt raised it over Solo’s neck and brought it down as Solo caught it with his bare hand. Solo’s hand didn’t bleed as the silhouette of an equipment appeared.

[Item: High Knight’s Gauntlet]
Item Class: B
+7% Physical Damage Reduction (Slows Movement Speed if Strength is below 70.)

The clashes unleashed a powerful shockwave as Solo stared at him “I… refuse… to… LOSE!!!!” Screamed Solo as he pulled out the Nero’s Fang in hopes for poison effects to work but it didn’t, so he grabbed the staff on his High Magician’s Staff and used his magic to slam Tybalt to the ground.

[Telekinesis]

Tybalt managed to stand up by Solo’s magical pressure and removed the dagger from his eye. “OH NO YOU DON’T!!!” He screamed as he returned his Nero’s Fang to his inventory as he pulled out his Assassin’s Dagger, he pulled Tybalt towards him and thrust his dagger inside of Tybalt’s helmet

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!” Screamed Solo as he pushed off the black knight as it fell on its knees as white mana blood flowed from the helmet as Solo was panting for air.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Knight Commander Onyx Abyss Tybalt.]

[You Have Level Up] x2

“*Panting* I… won…” He said as he fell on his knees as he used his hands to hold him up, he stopped using his [Metal Skin] as he smiled as he looked at the loot he got.

You have gotten [Onyx Knight’s Helmet.]
[Ruler’s Hand] Runestone
[Leather Pouch]
[Instant Return Stone]

“So, what’s in the pouch?” Said Solo as he opened it as he collected the gold.

You have gotten 3 Million Gold

“Great… wonder what kind of things I can get at the Store?” He said as he equipped the helmet.

[Item: Onyx Knight’s Helmet]

Solo smirked as he looked at the Runestone.

[Runestone: King’s Hand]
A skill can be obtained by breaking the rune.

Solo looked at the Return Stone.

[Item: Instant Return Stone]
This item can be obtained only from a job-change quest. Crush this stone to be instantly teleported outside the dungeon. If unused, it will automatically be destroyed once the Job-Quest ends.
Cannot be stored in the inventory.

“Why did I get this stone?” Solo wondered as he healed himself.

[Mid-Heal]x3
+1500 HP
-240 Mana
HP: 1930/1930
MP: MP: 2820/6099

Solo looked around as he noticed portals appearing in the Throne Room. His eyes widened “God damn it… THIS QUEST ISN’T OVER!!!” He yelled as notices appeared.

The Job Quest now begins.

“NOW BEGINS?!” He yelled angrily.

SURVIVE AS LONG AS POSSIBLE TO EARN ADVANCEMENTS POINTS THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE ASSIGNED TO A HIGHER JOB CLASS.

00:00:00

“Points?! God damn it!”

Good Luck.
00:00:01

Solo turned to the portals as mass units of knights, archers, & assassins exit out of the portals as the doll enemies march towards Solo. “Time is points and those points are used to make the Job Class more powerful. I’m getting mentally and physically tired of fighting. I guess Celestia was right that I should stop.” Solo stared as an image of that statue flashed before him. Solo shakes his head to get that image out of head.

Fatigue: 50

“Fuck… that thing still hunts my dreams.” He said as he sent his dagger to the inventory and pulled out his Bo-Staff. “I’ll just take them down without being seen.”

[Stealth]
-400 Mana
-8 Mana per Sec

Solo became invisible as he prepared to strike

A Mage used [Skill: Eyes of True Sight]

Giant eyeballs appeared. “What the?!” Whispered Solo as the eye iris moved to the right as the knights, assassins & archers turned their sights to where Solo is found. *GASP* Solo turned visible as he jumped over the knights, smashed them from behind. Solo dodge roll as he smashed and crushed archers, knights, and assassins. Solo turned around, avoiding the arrows and assassins strikes.

[Magic Beam]

Solo fired a beam of magic as it pierced through a row of knights as they fell apart and grabbed a knight and used it to slam into a group of knights. “God, damn it! What’s going on!?” Yelled Solo as his horn glowed.

[Telekinesis]

He lifted at least 15 knights, compressed them to form a massive ball of smashed up armor and used it as a massive bowling ball to crush the knights as he continued his onslaught.

Fatigue: 130

Solo looked to see more knights, archers, and assassins were marching towards him. Solo looked above him as the timer was there.

00:15:24

“Only 15 minutes had passed… I… underestimated this dungeon.” Said Solo as he used his Bo-Staff to hold himself up. “This will be the death of me.” He said as archers pulled on their bows.

[Metal Skin]

The archers fired their arrows as they bounced off his skin. Assassins came charging in to stab Solo to kill him, but their weapons broke as they made contact to the skin. “Nice Try.” Solo said as he grabbed 2 assassins by the neck and snapped them.

[Magic Beam]x6

Solo fired rapid beams of magic to vaporize them as Solo was starting to notice something wrong. “Where’s the EXP? I thought by killing many of these dolls, I would at least get a level up.” He said as he started to realize the truth. “These are summons! They’re nothing but dummies!” He yelled as he continued to beat them away.

“It’s all your fault.” Said a voice as Solo heard it as he noticed a figure familiar to him. “It’s all your fault, XXXX.” Solo squinted his eyes to see… himself when he was human.

“Is that… myself?”

“Yes… I’m you from before you gave a noble death. You were living in a world that didn’t have those god damn portals to dungeons. You could have lived a peaceful life, no danger, no fear, and no fucking reason to fight in this peaceful world.”

“No fucking reason...? NO FUCKING REASON!?” Yelled Solo as he was enraged by that comment.

[Bloodlust]

Solo unleashes a wave of fear as all his targets as he attacked them all with blind rage and fists of fury “When I was kid, my sister nearly got capture by Slave Traders, Jelly was insulted and nearly got hurt by racist ponies and a whore siren who wanted vengeance against her mom! & you call this shithole of a world peaceful!? You don’t know anything!!!” Screamed Solo as he ignored the War Hammers, Arrows, knives and spears wounds and bruises as his human self just watched.

“…”

“If that peaceful, call me a Terrorist!!!” He screamed as chains wrapped around him as his wings were in a bind. Solo struggled as he fell to his knees to see a knight marching towards him with a claymore. “Screw you… You’re not me, my former life would still be fighting with all that he has. I didn’t die for glory, fame nor affection. I died to protect those who matter to me.” He said as the knight was next to him as it raised its claymore.

“I guess I was wrong. Keep fighting then. Also, I once remember luck is a stat in those RPG games. Luck is on your side, this time.” Said Solo’s Human self as he started to vanish “Just don’t let that statue keep haunting you.” Solo looked down as closed his eyes.

!ALARM
[YOU HAVE NOT COMPLETED THE DAILY QUEST. YOU ARE NOW HEADING TOWARDS THE ‘PENALTY ZONE’ FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME.]

[Penalty Zone: SURVIVE]

GOAL: Survive until the time limit runs out.

Time Required: 4 Hours

Time Remaining: 3 H 59 MIN 58 SEC

The knight swung down and smashed the ground. “???” It looked around to search for Solo as the mages used these skills to search for him.

A Mage used [Skill: Eyes of True Sight]

They search for Solo as they couldn’t find him.

Penalty Zone
“I’m getting real fucking tired of this place but I’m grateful for it, for once.” Said Solo as he checked his HP & MP.

HP: 123/2310
MP: 312/6099
Fatigue: 170

“Yikes… I never thought fatigue could go that high. I wonder…” Solo pulled out his phone and opened the shop as he smirked. “I guess The Penalty Zone is a loophole for the conditions of that Job Quest. I couldn’t leave without that Return Stone. So maybe…” He said as he opened his inventory, pulled out 2 of the High Wizard’s Elixirs and returned them. “I guess I’ll use my emergency. He said as he pulled out a potion with a shining golden glow.

Heavenly Elixir
Restores all HP & MP and returns Fatigue to 0.

“It took me 5 years as a kid to buy this and it cost 1 mil to buy it. Selling those junk loot helped a bit.” He said as he groaned a bit “My folks’ meddling didn’t help me at least.” He said as he drank it.

HP: 2310/2310
MP: 6099/6099
Fatigue: 0

“That’s better.” Said Solo as the Scorpions appear from the sand.

Poisoned-Fanged Giant Sand Scorpion

“Their names are orange. Guess they’re no longer a danger to me but I want to rest. IVY!”

[Summon Wooden Familiar]
-100 MP

A summon circle appeared as Ivy appeared, along with a large pile of branches and a huge pile of Coral pieces. “Sic them girl.” Said Solo as Ivy howled and absorbed both the piles to form a massive wolf made of timber branches and pieces of coral.

*HOWL*

Ivy unleashed her wrath on the scorpions as Solo decided to do some shopping as he once remembered back in his old life; weapons that were made to slay a certain type of monster. “If this is connected to my world and beyond; than show me the weapons.” Solo found the weapons and went to the Dagger Section to see a list of weapons.

Common Dagger 10B
Steel Dagger 400B
Bandit’s Dagger 5,000B
Knight Slayer 3,500,000B

“Hmmm… It’s expensive but it’s worth it!” as his total bits went down

3,940,800 B
-3,500,000 B
Total: 440,800 B

The Knight Slayer appeared in front of him as he grabbed it and examined it.

[Item: Knight Slayer]
Item Rank: B
Category: Dagger
Attack Power: +80
-Buff: Kill the Knight’s Damage output increases by 50% when facing armored opponents.

“A large curved black dagger with red jagged teeth. This will be a key importance.” He said as he pulled out the Runestone that he got form Tybalt. “Let’s see what this does.” He crushed it in his hand.

You have learned [Skill: King’s Hand].

[Skill: King’s Hand LV1]
Active Skill
No Mana Required

The user can physically manipulate objects without physical contact.

Solo frowned “So it’s like [Telekinesis] without using magic… This would make either one of my sisters happy, but I don’t have to reveal that I’m using magic without my horn glowing.”

*CHOMPING* *CRUNCHING*

Solo turned to see Ivy was eating the carcasses of the scorpions she killed as Solo earned some level ups and something else.

[You Have Level Up]x4

[Summon Wooden Familiar] has upgraded

“Upgrade?” Said Solo as he turned to Ivy shed the coral from her and it all formed into a Coral Wolf.

Ivy can create a Replica of herself.

“Whoa…” Both Ivy & Replica wagged their tails as he examined the replica. It didn’t have an orb embedded on its chest nor glowing eyes. “Hollow… like an empty shell.” Said Solo as he remembered a certain creature that was empty.

He shook his head “They have hearts too.” He said as the Replica brought the last carcass of the scorpions to Ivy. “Ivy’s the main body while the replica acts out on her order or mine.” Said Solo as he noticed the time.

00:00:54

“Less than a minute.” Solo pulled out the Assassin’ Dagger and prepared to fight. “Time to unleash hell.” Said Solo as time was over and he was brought back to the Throne Room as there were more than before. “Die.” Said Solo as he slashed the knights with his Knight Slayer and the assassins & archers with the Assassin’ Dagger with ease.

*GROWL*

Solo turned to see Ivy and the replica were there as they chomp and slash the knights with their paws. “I can’t summon Familiars but bringing familiars with me is a loophole.” He said as the Coral Wolf Replica continued to fight as the knights’ weapons were incapable of wounding it. Solo looked as he noticed that there are 6 portals continuing to pour out knights, assassins & archers. “Wait… where are the mages?” He said as he forgot that he did say these were summons “The mages are the true targets!” He said as he noticed one was hiding behind his summons “FIGHT LIKE A TRUE MAGE!!!” He screamed as he slashed right through the summons and stabbed the mage in the faceless head.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Magician.]

Solo turned around and smirked.

[Stealth]
-400 Mana

Solo turned invisible as the mages did the same thing from before.

A Mage used [Skill: Eyes of True Sight]x7

The mages summon those eyes as they search for Solo but he was near the top of one of the columns. Solo looked down to see that the eyes were above the mages. “Found them.” He said as he jumped off the column and slash a mage in half.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Magician.]

Solo turned to another and sliced its head off.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Magician.]

He slashed more summons as he charged at them as his horn glowed

[Magic Beam]

He fired a beam of magic as it pierced the knights as it pierced the mage.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Magician.]

Solo turned to see some portals started to vanish as he turned the rest who decided to work together. “Huh?” 5 of the mages place their hands directly on the ground to create a magic circle as all the knights, assassins & archers were brought together to morph into golems made of their… armor. “Golems.” Said Solo as they march towards him as Ivy & her replica attack them without mercy as Solo smirks. “Remind me to buy you fresh meat.” He said as he opened his wings.

[Flight]

Solo took flight as he dive bombed the mages as he killed them in one slash.

!ALARM
[You have slain a Magician.]x5

As Solo killed the knights, all the knights, assassins, & archers fell as smog left their bodies. “It’s over.” Solo looked at the time.

05:01:10

The Job Quest is now completed. As all monsters in the Throne Room are now defeated.

Solo fell to his knees as sighed in relief “Finally…” Solo said but paused. “Wait…” He widens his eyes as he grips tightly to his daggers. “Oh no… not this time. IVY!” Ivy went to her master “Absorb these pieces of armor to your body!” He said as Ivy turned her head.

*Confused Bark*

“Like before from that Undersea Dungeon with the coral.” He said as Ivy looked at the armor pieces of one of the golems and tried. The pieces glowed an eerier green as the pieces floated towards her as she dropped her wood and created a new kind of Timberwolf, made from pieces of armor.\

“Hmmm… Armorwolf… Metalwolf… Knightwolf… ahh… I will think of a name for it later.”

This Job Quest is now complete. All monsters in the entire Dungeon have been put to death.

“Oh…” He said as he was dumbfounded as he turned to his familiar. “Ivy, thanks for the aid but I believe I can oversee it from here. Return.”

*HOWL*

Ivy howled as a magic circle appeared under her as she, her coral replica & wood pieces were sent with her. “Now… what’s my job choices? Probably Magic Warrior… again or Assassin… I could go for a Sage class, but I barely use magic in all my battles.”

Analyzing the Player’s actions to assign the proper job.

“Huh, so I don’t get to choose my job. So, what will this system give me?” He said as more screens appeared.

Whenever the Player goes, the angels of death follow.

“What?”

Whatever path the Players walks, it is littered with corpses of his enemies, and blood stains.

“What?!”

“In addition, the Player craves power and creates his own path without depending on others.

“Am I getting a warrior job or something?”

Because your hidden thirst for power is powerful enough to drag the souls of the slain from Death’s collection. The undead shall become the army for the Player.

“WHAT THE FUCK?!”

YOUR JOB IS NECROMANCER.

(“Necromancer? NECROMANCER?! Okay maybe I use magic but most of my battles were mostly physical abilities! I’ve killed many monsters, slave traders and even a rogue siren but that… Oh shit, yeah that makes actual sense.”) Though Solo recalled about Necromancers. (“If I recall them, they’re mages who battle with an army of the undead. There was that one hunter who lived in Egypt who turned monsters she slain into living skeletons except it didn’t work with monsters that were purely boneless. She was sexy but we weren’t on a first name basis. I still remember that D-Rank Hunter teammate of mine did have a nude poster of her on his ceiling, the doofus.”) Solo laughed at his good memories but frown as he looked at the words

YOUR JOB IS NECROMANCER.
NOTIFICATION
Will you accept this job?
Accept Decline

“I can’t accept this. Perhaps there might be a new job. Decline.”

Necromancer is a Hidden Class.
Will you still decline?

“Hidden Class?! I remembered some Hunters who were unique with those. A Hunter who can transform into a Beastman, a Blacksmith who can transform common tools into powerful weapons, even a handgun that can pierce through an ant’s exoskeleton.” Solo looked at the job as black fire flashed in his eyes. (“I nearly died in this hellhole because of my pride. There are more powerful dungeons ahead, but I’ll take a break as I improve myself with training.”) “I… accept…” Said Solo as black mana appeared from the shadows in the corners, surrounding him as it grew.

[YOUR JOB HAS BEEN CHOSEN.]

The Black Mana was absorbed into Solo’s body as he looked at his class.

[Solo Level is promoted from ‘Necromancer’ to ‘Darkness Monarch’

“Darkness Monarch?” He said as he notices black wisps emanating from the armor remains. “I can hear their screams. Wonder how long Sunbutt notice my new magic?”

[Title ‘One who overcomes Death’ has been bestowed.]

“Sweet. I’m set for a while.”

[Select Command Line for Shadow Extraction.]

“Select a command line…” Said Solo as he stood in place “ARISE FROM DEATH.” Said Solo as each of the enemies remains, hands made of pure darkness emerged as Solo was shocked and amazed by them as they all not only were made of living darkness but had blue mana flowing from their eyes and faceless faces as they rose from their corpses as they stood in front of Solo Level. “Amazing… This is beyond what I’ve expected.

[Skill: Shadow Extraction LV2]
Job-Specific Skill

A shadow soldier is created from a body without life by taking out its mana. The chance of failure increases the higher the target’s stats are, and the more time passed since the target’s demise.

“Let’s see out of the 70 I have risen from death’s grasp.” Said Solo as he viewed them.

[Shadow Infantry LV1]x40
Rank: Normal

[Shadow Archer LV1]x12
Rank: Normal

[Shadow Thief LV1]x10
Rank: Normal

[Shadow Mage LV1]x8
Rank: Elite

“Hmmm… 8 Mages, 12 Archers, 10 assassins were demoted into thieves and 40 knights. I guess those assassins were thieves. Must have been labeled differently from that dungeon’s theme.” Said Solo as he turned to the corpse of Onyx Abyss Tybalt. “If these enemies can be turned into Shadows, then…” He went to Tybalt's corpse and stared at it.

[Shadow Extraction can be used on this target.]

[If you wish to use Shadow Extraction again, you must send one or more Shadow Soldiers to the Void of Death through ‘Extraction cancel’.]

Solo turned to a soldier and looked at the others “Sorry for calling you. Cancel Extraction on 21 Infantry Units.” He said as 21 Infantry Units faded to nothing.

[Once you cancel extraction on Shadow Soldiers, they are sent to the void and cannot be recalled.]

“Got to better be weary of that.” He said as Solo turned his sights to Tybalt “ARISE FROM DEATH.” Said Solo as a force of Black Mana nearly pushed him away. “What the?”

[You have failed to extract the shadow.]

[You still have 2 more chances.]

“Strike one. Have no one to blame but myself. Shadow Extraction did say I might fail due to high stats and how much time passes since I’ve killed him. Got to try again, ARISE FROM DEATH.” Another force of Black Mana pushed Solo away as he snarled.

[You have failed to extract the shadow.]

[You still have 1 last chance.]

Solo turned to the thrones and remembered that Tybalt once sat there before Solo’s duel with him “Stop. It's time to let go of the throne. Try following me, a warrior who is powerful enough to duel with you. ARISE FROM DEATH.” Said Solo as Black Mana flows through Tybalt’s corpse as a new Shadow Knight emerges from Tybalt’s corpse. “Onyx Abyss Tybalt… nah… too focus on todays’ interests.” Said Solo as he looked at his new Shadow Knight.

[You have upgraded the Shadow.]

[Shadow’s level will be 5.]

[Shadows that are ranked higher than Knight can be named.]

“Tybalt.” Said Solo as Tybalt bowed down to Solo Level.

[Tybalt LV5]
Rank: Knight

Solo smiled as they all bow down to Solo as he smirked. “Now let’s go home.” Said Solo as he saved his shadows as they all entered his shadow. “So that’s where they go.” He said as the whole dungeon disintegrated as Solo was back in Canterlot “I’m going to bed.” He said as he teleported to where he left the room where he was sleeping. Solo fell on the bed and slept as he used his magic to lock up the windows and doors for peace and quiet.

The Next Day
“Time to rise and shine!” Yelled Celestia as she teleported to Solo’s guest room with Aza and Jelly.

“When I feel like it.” He replied as they were annoyed by his personality.

“Wake up young man. All ponies enjoy the day.” Said Celestia.

“Only to see you so they can drool at your body.” Said Solo as Celestia stared at him as Azza and Jelly backed away.

“Very true.” She said as she used her magic to lift the bed with Solo, toss him out the room and into a pond.

*SPLASH*

“STILL IN BED!” He yelled as they all looked outside.

“Naked?” Said Celestia.

“I SLEEP WITH MY CLOTHES ON, WHENEVER I’M NOT HOME!” He yelled as Sky appeared while flying in the air.

“Let me guess, you try to get him to wake up?” She said as Jelly & Azza nodded. “Nice try with the pond. Mom and dad normally try to set his bed on fire with him in it as he gets out immediately.” She said as she flew to Solo as Celestia looked horrified as Azza pulled on her dress.

“They are mercenaries and death threats are normal for us. The only way to make you eat your vegetables and play outside.” Said Sky

15 Minutes Later
Solo was being dragged by Celestia as his punishment for sneaking out last night. “What’s my punishment? Stretched by a rack? Whipped on the back and hit with water mixed in salt?” He said as Celestia looked at him.

“We don’t do that to anyone.” She said as she put some thought into it “At least, I hope so. Your parents did agree to burn them.” She said brought Solo to a room where a purple Unicorn Mare was reading a book, a small purple dragon playing ball with a white Unicorn Stallion in a guard’s uniform. “Twilight Sparkle, Spike, Shining Armor. Meet Solo Level.” They turned as Solo stared at them as they looked confused.

“Wait…” Said Solo as they didn’t know what he’s remembering. “I met you 2 before.” Said Solo as Celestia liked to hear that “I used your book to brutally beat up some rich dicks and I ran you over after stealing Azza before she hatched.” He said as Twilight looked horrified as she hugged the book she was reading, and Shining Armor remembered that he trampled him despite his barrier magic.

“I remembered you!” Said Shining Armor “You’re under arrest!” He said as Solo narrowed his eyes.

“I'm gonna need a book to bash a guard’s skull in half.” He said as Jelly, Sky and Azza came in.

“Another for his criminal record in Canterlot.” Said Azza as Spike crawled to her and smiled. “Don’t… mess… the natural… order.” She snarled at Spike who didn’t understand her.
