Chapter 490 Missed Opportunity

Chapter 490 Missed Opportunity

"I still think it's a waste, though..." Esme commented as she watched Rey use Magic to shove all the treasures within the room they were currently into his Grand Inventory.

This was the Treasury, and just like the Ground Floor and Boss Room, it was incredibly large.

It was definitely bigger than the Ground Floor, but not quite matching up to the Boss Room. Hence, somewhere in the middle.

As one would expect from its name, the incredibly spacious area was packed chock-full with treasures and riches beyond count.

'This is another proof Adrien wasn't involved. If he was, all of this would be gone by now.' Was Rey's first thought when he and Esme entered this place.

A lot of Miasma-filled Enchanted Items were present, all looking like well-crafted weapons.

If the soldiers at the Front Lines were to equip weapons and Items like these, they would be unstoppable.

'The issue is the Miasma, and while I could purify it by washing it with Mana, it'll sort of ruin its corrosive effects.

The advantage of having Miasma-based weapons was the added damage. Removing that would just make it lose its luster.

'Well... I'll think of that later!' It was with this mindset that Rey simply poured all the Items and treasures within the Treasury into his Grand Inventory.

Thankfully, the Miasma they exuded didn't get in the way of his Skill function. However, just in case, he created a separate compartment within his Storage Space so he could store them without any dangers to the rest of his Items.

While still going through his process, Rey heard Esme's remarks and turned to her.

"What is a waste?"

She simply shrugged, seated while folding her hands and watching him. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

"The Skeletal Dragon... you said you had a Necromancy Skill sometime ago, right? Why didn't you place it under your command or something?"

Necromancers were known to be able to resurrect dead entities by turning them into Undead; then controlling those creatures of abomination. However, they could also control Undead that were not made by them.

All of this was dependent on the quality of their Skill, Class, and the mastery they had over their abilities.

So, in theory, a stronger Necromancer could subjugate a weaker Undead. As long as their Magic was stronger than what Magic the weaker Undead was under, they could even hijack control from other Necromancers.

So why didn't Rey take this chance to make a Dragon Lord--fallen or not--his servant?

The answer was simple--he couldn't.

'A lot has happened over the past week. I just want to lie down on an actual bed and sleep properly."

Not sleeping for nearly ten days straight had taken a severe toll on him. Right now, he was also only at 50 percent since his other Duplicate was with Alicia and his classmates back in the City.

'I really should swap out with it soon. I don't feel comfortable leaving my social life with that thing.' Rey nearly chuckled.

Besides, he also missed Alicia.

'I really want to talk to her. It's been about a week since we last spoke.'

During the entire Conquest—especially after the Mass Teleportation Incident—Alicia was one of the only things that occupied his mind.

Now that everything was back to normal, he couldn't help but anticipate their next moments together.

'Maybe we'll even... hehe!' He stopped himself from thinking too far, turning towards Esme, who still seemed to be in deep thought.

'Is she still thinking about the Skeletal Dragon?'

"Hey, Esme. You shouldn't concern yourself with that stuff." After saying this, a swirling portal opened in front of him.,

"Come on, let's go."

"Rey... that Undead Dragon..." As he thought, she was still on about it.

Before he could respond to her, however, her question came forth.

"... Did it have a glitch Skill?"
