"Are you done ordering your subordinates around?" The undead asked with a blank look in his eyes
"Oh it speaks?" I said mockingly. I never expected that one day I'd be talking to an undead, then again, a week ago I didn't think that zombies could exist, so I guess at this point, nothing should surprise .
"Yes I do." The undead said flatly
"Well then, do you have a na then." I asked, genuinely curious if he could still rember his life from when he was a human.
"No I do not." He replied
"Okay, so what's your race?" I asked, curiously
"I'm a ghoul." He replied in the sa flat tone
'It must be a tier 3 undead.' I thought
"May I ask you a question?" He asked, surprising
"Yeah sure." I replied
"Why do you protect those humans and that creature with the radiant aura? I can tell by your aura that you are similar to ." The undead said
"I protect them because I feel like it and trust we're nothing alike." I said with a disgusted expression on my face.
"I see so I guess…you can die with them." The undead roared and flew at fast. I made another spear out hell fire and plunged it into the chest of the ghoul, scorching his chest black. The ghoul opened it's mouth wide, and I my instincts scread at , telling that sothing dangerous was coming out of that monster's mouth, so I imdiately dodged and a second later, a thick black mist escaped his mouth. I flew behind it, interlocked my fingers and swung my fists downwards with all the strength I had, causing the ghoul to crash into a building. I used [Demon Enchant] on my hands causing them to be surrounded by red energy then I charged towards the ghoul. The ghoul got up out of the building and sent five lines of pure demonic energy at , and I flew over them, successfully avoiding the attack. I flew towards the ghoul and swung my claws at it's neck but then sothing astonishing happened.
Just as my claws were about to connect with it's neck, a bone like substance covered it's neck successfully protecting it. The Ghoul turned it's head towards and released a torrent of black gas and it hit point blank. And it fucking hurt.

I quickly flew out of the black mist escaping further damage. My throat felt like it was lting and my skin was covered in severe burn marks and I saw a few pieces of my skin had turned into a sickly black patch. What was that attack?
"Do you like my [Necrosis Breath]?" The Ghoul said mockingly.
'Cocky bastard.' I thought while gritting my teeth.
Suddenly, the ghoul swung it's claws and five black slashes flew at , and I quickly dodged before sending a concentrated fireball at the ghoul hitting him squarely in the stomach. But unlike the last two tis, the ghoul wasn't sent flying instead it only flew back a few inches. Once the smoke cleared I saw the sa white bone like stuff that covered it's neck covering it's stomach and then it started to grow. Before I knew it, it's entire body was covered by the stuff excluding it's mouth and nose. The ghoul smirked at then it flew towards at a high speed and I greeted it mid flight with a claw attack. I was obviously more agile in the air than the ghoul as that bone like substance weighed it down, so I managed to avoid it's claw attack while also landing a strike of my own but the attack didn't manage to pierce into his flesh and only left a deep claw mark in it's armour which healed quickly.
Even though I didn't manage to pierce into his flesh, I wasn't discouraged since I knew that a skill like that uses a lot of DP and I could just wait until it ran out. But that's kind of cowardly, and cowardice was not a strategy I would like to embrace. Looking the ghoul covered in ivory armour, I pondered what I could do to pierce it's armour but the ghoul didn't give ti to think and sent out black slashes at forcing to dodge. Seeing it couldn't hit with the black slashes it flew after but I was faster, frustrated it just continued to fire the black slashes at and it was getting harder to dodge them with so many coming at at once.
'I got it I.' I thought to myself. I then concentrated but that was hard to do while trying not to get sliced apart. My idea was this, I would concentrate my demonic energy into my claws only, my finger nails, not my entire hand. In theory it should increase the sharpness of my claws and cut through it's armour. It took longer than usual to control my demonic energy but that can be attributed to having to dodge these black slashes. I eventually succeeded and my claws got even longer and glowed a vibrant red.
'Now for the finishing touch.' I thought and then my hands ignited with hellfire. I flew towards the ghoul slicing through the black slashes that were in my way. The ghoul slashed at but I easily dodged and thrust my flaming claws into his chest and my hand went straight through his body. I quickly pulled my arm out of his chest and there were small flas left behind in hiss chest wound. He opened his mouth and released a stream of black gas which I managed to dodge…most of.
[- 35 LP]
'Fuck.' I thought as more black patches appeared on my body, and so of them starting to sll awful.
I angrily flew around it and slashed at the back of it's neck splitting it's cervical vertebrae and instantly it tried to heal but small flas were left behind in the wound and when they ca into contact with the black mist they flared up consuming it's entire head in flas, causing the ghoul to panic. Taking advantage of the opportunity I spun around and kicked it's head off it's body.
[You have slain a level 1 Ghoul. You have gained 660 exp.]
[Your [Hell Fire] grows stronger.]
''I should have just used [Demons Pride].'' I sighed, looking at the black patches on my body.
