Chereads / The Dungeon Tree / Chapter 232 - Bones

Chapter 232 - Bones

The four skeletons stared at me and then back at each other for a moment, as if unsure what to do in this situation.

As for appearances, each skeleton had a number marked on their head. The numbers here were six, forty-eight, twenty-nine, and seventy all in order from left to right.

"What were we supposed to do again, Seventy?" The skeleton with a six marked on his head asked.

I guess the skeletons just call each other by what number is on their head. Certainly makes addressing them easier.

"I think we were supposed to put him in the dungeon?" Seventy didn't sound too sure of himself when he said that.

"Wait, we have a dungeon?" Forty-Eight asked.

The four suddenly began talking with each other, as if completely forgetting Fang and I were here.

"Fang, what do we do?" I whispered, keeping my gaze on the four skeletons.

My question was met with complete silence. I looked down at Fang with a confused expression on my face and saw that his tail was wagging and his eyes were full of excitement as he stared at the skeletons.

"Fang?" I asked cautiously.

"Bones!" Fang's voice echoed throughout the library and caused the skeletons to stop talking and look right at him.

"What the?!" Six tried to avoid Fang's bite but wasn't fast enough.

Fang clasped his teeth around Six's arm and began to tug on it. The three other skeletons' jaws literally dropped on the ground forcing them to pick it up and put it back in place.

"Scatter!" Seventy shouted, suddenly running right past me and Fang.

The two other skeletons followed soon after and ran further into the library. As for Six, his arm popped right off and he started running off after the other skeletons with Fang chasing closely behind him.

"I think you've got this handled. I'll just go and deal with that necromancer now." I said, creeping my way towards where the skeletons came in from.
