Chapter 234 - Not What I Was Expecting

"Soooo… Care for a drink?" The necromancer asked, breaking the twenty second long silence.

I stopped to think for a moment. On one hand I am pretty thirsty but on the other, who offers a drink to a person who just broke into their base? There has to be a catch, I'm sure of it.

"Sorry but I'll have to pass on that offer." I said, jumping back and putting my hand on Genki's hilt.

"I mean, you are kind of messing with the dead and using them for your own gain. Not to mention your skeletons tried to throw me and my partner in your dungeon." I said.
