Status Window And Shadow Necromancer

I close my eyes and grit my teeth.

I feel like a prisoner about to be guillotined.

But the Minotaur’s attack never comes swinging down at me.

“…?”

I open my eyes, puzzled.

The corpse of the Crimson Vampire Princess that I had been touching a moment ago is gone.

—Scrape.

“…!?”

A sound from behind.

Still on my back, I slowly turn over, and there stands a beautiful woman with golden hair and red eyes.

At her feet lies the Minotaur’s corpse, cleaved cleanly through its center.

“Impossible… No way, did it actually work…!?”

“Well, well—just when I thought that damned old priest of the Holy Church had killed me off, a necromancer brings me back. And to be made to serve some brat like this. I’ve lived a long time, but it seems I won’t be bored even after death.”

The woman of gold and crimson laughs seductively.

“Wh-what is this…!?”

A square board suddenly appears, filling my vision.

Level up? Class change? Skill acquired?

There are words written there; I can understand each term, but in my confused state they won’t stick in my head.

“Ugh!? M-My body’s hot!? Ah!? Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!?!?!?”

What now!?

Even though I should have lost my sense of pain when I became a corpse, a searing pain runs through my entire body.

A pain like my skull is being squeezed razor-tight surges through me, and I lose consciousness.

My bad luck has to end somewhere, I guess…

My vision blurs.

My sight—the Crimson Vampire Princess’s beauty warps, then I see nothing at all.

My consciousness—falters.

…

……

……..

…………..

“Still alive…”

“No, you’re dead. Same as me, you are.”

I don’t know how long I was out, but when I wake up the pain is gone.

I get to my feet.

At the far end of the burial chamber a throne is set, and the Crimson Vampire Princess sits upon it.

“Awake, little brat?”

“What on earth is going on…?”

The Crimson Vampire Princess answers.

“To sum it up—the brat resurrected me with 【Necromance】, then dealt with the Minotaur lying around. That’s all.”

…Seriously.

So I really was able to use【 Necromance 】on the Crimson Vampire Princess.

“And what was that earlier about a level up, or the words saying I changed class to【 Shadow Necromancer 】…?”

I remember what happened just before I lost consciousness.

Then, a board with writing appears again in front of me.

“What… is this…?”

This format looks familiar.

It’s the kind of thing that appears when an adventurer uses the magic device at the Adventurer’s Guild to check status.

Does this mean these are my stats…?

No way—the last time I checked my Level it was 8.

And my class has changed from 【 Necromancer 】 to 【 Shadow Necromancer 】.

“What!? Little brat, you can see it!? The same thing that lets me see the world’s truths! My, my… this is delightful, isn’t it?”
