I accompanied Claudia to the entrance of the cave, while carrying one of the dead body on my back. The body was already in a very bad condition. But still, it need to be buried to honor his family. I hope his family won't be shocked.
I look at Claudia, worrying that she might be blamed. Where infact, she was trying so hard to avenge them. But, if they do, i hope Claudia can endure it. So she can be more stronger than before. Yeah, that's it.
As we reached the entrance, i drop the body gently. Even though i really want to go outside, i know that i will die out there. I will stay in this cave for the time being. Human still see me as monster.
"Mister? You're not coming?"
I shook my head, pointing my finger toward myself. Moving my hand near my neck, as if slicing my neck. Claudia look at my gesture.
"I see."
Moreover i need to adapt with my new ability, and the cave is the best place to do it right now. No human, no monster, the perfect place to train. With that being said i, wave my hand to Claudia. She smiled at me, and waved her hand back.
I look at her eyes, before slowly turning around and going back inside.
***
"Ahh, mister skeleton is going back."
Claudia watch the skeleton, as he drift back to the cave. She was a little sad, the skeleton didn't follow her back to the town. But after a second thought, she was grateful. Without a doubt, many adventurer will seek him if he went back to the city with her.
'Haa, i can't believe it. I was saved by a monster.'
She can't believe it, she thought her life was over back then in the dungeon. She never thought that she would survive. She was really grateful.
This was the first time, she saw a monster that could understand human language. She read a book back then, explaining that only High Ranked monster could talk and understand human language. Yet today she saw a skeleton understanding her language.
"Maybe i should visit him again."
She want to know more about him. She want to ask him many thing. But not now, right now she must focus on honoring her friend family, burying her friend. And she want to become more stronger than right now.
'Mister skeleton, i hope we can be friend when we meet again.'
She then carry her friend and went back to the town where she live.

I look at the thing infront of me.
[You can now use Bone Manipulation(Low)]
Yeah i need to make a name for this thing. I think, placing my hand on my chin. I finally got it. Zero, is it good enough? I guess it is. Well i suck at naming thing, no need to have complicated name.
[Host has given □●□ the name 'Zero']
[□●□ acknowledged the name 'Zero']
What? The thing acknowledge the name i gave? I see, that's good.
[Zero will now began to slowly gain personality.]
[Due to the name that has been given.]
Personality? Ahhh, so it will become more alive. Is that what it is? Great, i hope it can answer some of my question. Oh right i forgot, i look at Zero.
'Bone manipulation.'
What is this? So i can manipulate bone? Anyone bone? Even monster bone? I began to imagine about dislocating monster bone from inside. I quickly shook my head.
'Yeah that's really cowardly.'
I look at my body. I was thinking to pick one of the bone in my rib. But i pull back that thought, realizing that i can't regenerate. Yeah this is pretty much useless for me.
So i can only dislocate anyone bone from the inside. Damn it, i thought i could make a sword made out of bone or like that. I guess i have too much hope... wait, a minute.
I entered the room where the goblin knight corpse was lying. I grab his head.
'Blaze.'
Flame emerged from my body, slowly melting the frozen head of the goblin knight. When all the ice finally melted, i smashed the goblin knight head against the wall.
Bam! Bam!
I smashed it multiple times, not counting how many time have i smashed it. I finally stopped, noticing that i could see the skull of the goblin knight. I grab the goblin knight skull. I concentrated all my thought, imagining a bone helmet.
[Activating Bone Manipulation(Low)]
The skull slowly reshaping it's shape into a helmet. I was still focusing my thought, i didn't realize that the goblin skull's already changed into a bone helmet.
[Deactivating Bone Manipulation(Low)]
Zero sudden infromation, finally made me realize. I open my eyes, and i saw a bone helmet. The shape was like a knight helmet. Ok this is a really cool looking helmet. I put it on my head, even though my body became a little bit heavy, it was fine. After all, it was for my safety.
'Let's see if i can find any more bone.'
Noticing that the goblin body was still frozen. I was smiling,
'Hehehehe, time for another sacrifice.'
I began to abuse my ability, making a full knight armor made out of bone. And a longsword made out of bone aswell.
'I feel really safe now.'
Yeah i feel so safe, i look at the sword in my arm. I would like to test it's attack power. I raised my sword and swing it toward the wall infront of me.
Brak!
The wall was shaking, as the sword hit the wall. Dust was flying everywhere. I could see that there was a giant hole on the wall. Wow this sword is really powerfull. Yeah i need to be careful with this weapon.
Not like the weapon before, that i got from the human corpse, this sword was also really durable. I didn't see any crack at all.
'Amazing, i wonder what other thing i can do with Bone Manipulation.'
I had a big smile across my face as i think about that.
