After seeing Luck's ability, I wonder if my other skeletons can be this strong too? I still don't know much about necromancers as well as my skeleton army. Have I used my abilities properly? I didn't find the answer, I'm the only necromancer in this world and the one who knows my power other than myself is the king of darkness. But I don't know how I can meet him, only at certain moments I will be able to talk to him.
Maybe for now I'll find out for myself about my abilities.
"Hyungnim, looks like your little skeleton has great abilities." Ji-Hae spoke to me while pointing at Luck.
"I also know that he's strong, but I didn't expect him to be that strong."
"What about your other skeletons? Do you know their abilities?"
"I-I… that's right, I didn't know." I just realized that I didn't even recognize the ability of the skeleton I summoned. So I can't use it well.
So far I've only been giving them weapons, telling them to attack without knowing their respective skills, maybe I should find out about that.
"Why don't you call your other skeletons? So we can assess their abilities" Ji-Hae says that while helping me up.
What Ji-Hae suggested was a good thing. I had to take a better look at my skeletons so I could figure out their abilities and how to use them properly. It's not just about attacking, because my skeleton doesn't have a leader who can direct them well. Luck is also not very good at directing an army, but his individual abilities are great.
Then I'll have to call them all out. "Blank space opens" All my skeletons came out of the portal, all my skeletons came out and I'll judge your abilities now.
"You have a great army hyungnim, and there are also 5 werewolf skeletons. Looks like it was the werewolf from yesterday"
"You're right I just resurrected them from the portal raid earlier"
"Now we have to see their abilities hyungnim!"
If I see I now have 3 skeletons of different races, goblins, orcs, and werewolves. There are two goblins namely Luck and the sorcerer then I have 13 skeleton orcs and 5 skeleton werewolves. Orcs had large bodies and their upper bodies looked strong when compared to the others. While werewolves are seen to have strong legs and hands that have sharp claws.
I just saw clearly this time there was a difference in each of my skeletons. Not only in appearance but their strength is also different - different. It's true that based on stats orcs have great constitutions but so far I've only used them to attack. And orcs aren't great with swords but the weapon I gave them was a sword.
As for werewolves I haven't used them to fight before, but I know that they are fast as can be seen from the shape of their legs made for running. Their claws kept them from needing weapons and they should have good fighting skills due to their instincts.
And lastly was the skeleton sorcerer of the goblin race, he could at least use magic 10 times in one fight. But it wouldn't be efficient to just attack using his magic, he had to make a certain impact on the fight without having to spend a lot of his mana to cast his skills.
Why didn't I notice things like this before, I was just fighting carelessly. I've thoroughly analyzed most of the things I need to know.
"Hyungnim your army is very strong, defense, attack are all doable!" Ji-Hae said that to express his thoughts towards my skeleton army.
"That's right Ji-Hae I just realized that my skeleton army can defend and attack well"
"Aren't you setting up a formation for your skeleton army?"
"About that... I'm still thinking about it"
I've thought about it but I don't know a good formation for my skeleton army. I've recognized their abilities but there are still a few flaws.
"Ji-Hae orc is great at using any weapon?"
"As far as I know orcs use axes, other than that they can use spears and armor to defend."
"That's amazing, it means I have to change the weapon of my orc skeleton army"
"But for better strength it would be better to use an axe"
Ji-Hae gave good input as expected of my partner. I also only realized when I went to the raid portal when there was an orc using a spear to guard the camp gate. That means spears are good for defense while axes are good for attack power.
Now how can I get those guns? I gave them swords because I could make them... make them? That's right, can my skills be used to make other weapons? I never tried it because my main weapon is a sword. Okay should I try it now?
Then I approached the corpse of the red orc that I had killed earlier, I thought of using the bones from this orc corpse to make another weapon. I tried using a bone shaper.
"Bone Shapers!" I focused my skill on the red orc corpse then I tried to make a spear from the bones. The orc corpse was filled with black aura, and the bones moved under my skill. Then the bones fused together and slowly formed weapons. In the end it formed a spear as I thought I could make another weapon using this skill.
"Hyungnim what was that just now?!" Ji-Hae looks really shocked by what happened to the monster corpse just now.
"It's one of my skills, I can make weapons with monster corpses"
"That's really amazing, isn't that kind of skill cheating. You really are amazing hyungnim!" He seemed very interested in that ability, I could see from his gaze and his voice that sounded very excited.
Not only can I save money, but I can also put my skills to good use. Besides, this way I will not run out of weapons on the battlefield. Because wherever there is a monster corpse I can use it. However I saw that this spear looked stronger than the sword I usually made.
If I take a good look it seems like this spear also feels tougher. I tried pressing it and I could feel that it was very dense. As if it won't break, was it affected because I used red orc bones? Will my bone weapons differ in strength depending on the corpse of the monster I use? This is new knowledge for me. Before that let's see the stats of this weapon.
[Necromancer's Bone Spear]
Price : Unknown
Type : Weapon
Rank : D
Stats :
Strength +4
Constitution +4
Endurance +2
Woah... these stats are pretty great, even 3 different stats can be increased with just this spear. This is a powerful weapon. Even my sword that I usually use only increases 2 different stats.
[Necromancer's Bone Sword]
Price : Unknown
Type : Weapon
Rank : E
Stats :
Strength +2
Dexterity +2
This is great, it means that this way I can make my army stronger. Now I can only make this, but later I will try to make other weapons with the corpses of the monsters I killed.
"Hyungnim are we going to continue looking for monsters now?"
"Wait a minute Ji-Hae I want to check a few things before we continue"
I want to check something, so far I have never checked Luck's stats again. Ever since I resurrected him, I've only checked his stats once. I wonder if there's anything different about the stats window.

What's this? Luck has increased this much? And again I just found out that skeletons can increase their abilities. Isn't this cheating? My skeleton troops are already like hunters. All I know is that only hunters can increase their abilities, but if I can increase the abilities of the skeletons I summoned it's like a cheat. I can't imagine what would happen if he became on the same level as a high rank hunter later. Wouldn't that really help me? This is amazing... this is really great.
