The next two days are grind for levels. Michael didn't stop killing undead. He also received some drops, although they're not skill books, he got some equipment to wear like a cloak that can boost his mana, a ring to boost his stamina and mana regeneration. A necklace to boost his health.
And lastly a bow from a skeleton. This bow attached dark mana into the arrows, if pierced the target will be under a curse. Yes, a curse. This can be any curse. From small dizziness to complete disorientation of all your senses and even forcibly activating their worst nightmares. Yet, the bow's durability is questionable.
It's got only like 20 arrows at this moment. Seems like a limited use item. And because the effect is random even the grade isn't high, just uncommon grade. It's a grade above normal kitchen knives and others. A common item is a daily use item and an uncommon item is something with limited use or little stronger than common type equipment.
As Michael moved deeper into the dungeon, he came across a skeleton wearing robe and holding a staff. Yep, it's a skeletal wizard and it's level is around 10. Michael is three levels below this. After his continuous grind for hours, he found the monsters on same level give him some exp while monsters with lower levels give reduced amounts.
But the problem, this skeletal wizard can fire spells that can cast a wither effect, yep, rapid vitality drain. Fortunately Michael is evading these spells. as Michael ran towards the skeletal wizard to kill it, suddenly it slammed it's staff on the ground and skeletons emerged from few red coloured portal.
Michael cursed as the skeletal mage turned to him and pointed it staff at him. Something is wrong, Michael cash scan function again and stiffened.
[ Skeleton Champion Lv 10 (temporary) ]
' what the hell? How did that skeleton raise it's level that quickly and it's commanding ither skeletons? What is happening? ', Michael dodged the skeletons incoming at him before taking out the cursed bow. He ran around while the skeletons chased him, aiming at the skeleton, he fired an arrow at it when it's going to cast summoning spell again.
The arrow pierced it's head and bright glow appeared. The skeletal mage screamed in pain and pulled out the arrow before looking at him. If it's a living person, he ca certainly feel a murdurous glare. Ignoring that a part of it's skull disappeared. It slammed it's staff on the ground again.
This time, a bug redportsl appeared and skeleton that is at least level 15 appeared there. Michael watchednin disbelief as the skeleton mage crumbled into pieces.

But Michael got no time to rejoice, that skeletal mage commited a suicide attack from the spell. And summoned something that made him grit his teeth in anger.
[ Skeletal Golem LV 15 ]
Michael took out the grenades and threw them at the golem. They exploded and did little damage. Gritting his teeth, he took the cursed bow out before aiming at the skeletal Golem, but he saw a huge bone palm sweeping at his direction. He hurriedly rolled back and dodged it.
The palm of the golem swept the land where he stood and made small craters, if he were to be there, then it would have been a disaster. Drawing the bow he fired another arrow. The status effects this time is wither. ' Fucking useless, it's an undead and has no flesh ', Michael thought before drawing the bow again.
He fired arrows one after another. Status effects appeared too. Poison, nausea, confusion, etc., they had some effect on the golem it looked quite disoriented and roared in confusion hitting everything around. Michael charged and slashed it, but failed to cut the bones. He gritted his teeth and created some distance again.
He pulled the bow string back and fired arrows one by one. Until only the last one remained as he fired the last arrow, the skeletal Golem roared in pain. A pillar of light merged from the arrow, purification, a status effects specially for undead. It almost took down the skeletal mage few moments ago.
The golem writhed in pain and its red crystal broke into pieces. The golem collapsed. Michael also stood there and took some deep breaths, he is all running and firing at the golem. As the golem crumbled, Michael quickly collected the loot and exited the dungeon. Only then he saw the notifications.

Michael saw a list of basic classes. As he is going to select the basic class. A notification popped up in front of him.
[ Note : Class can only be changed once half of it's maximum threshold has reached. Please select carefully ]
Michael frowned. That means, he needs to level up a class to some level before choosing another. Sounds good to him. He chose the mage class.
