Shin continued to walk further inside. He had already healed himself and recovered half of the mana.

"Hopefully those three survive," Shin muttered. When he had used appraisal on Miklis, he came to know that he passed [Tire -3 Ghost eye celestial armor]. And just by its name Shin figured out it must be a very strong armor. Even though he couldn't sew its skills he knew that armor would be enough to save those people.

Shin continued climbing the tower. And as he did he surprisingly didn't find any monster in the way. Though there were many rooms on each floor of the tower they didn't contain anything valuable.

And so Shin appeared on the last floor of the tower.

And as he did he frowned. There was only one Room on this floor and it was the only room in the whole tower that was locked.

Shin quickly controlled his mana and sent his mana to the door trying to blast it away but j couldn't even see a hollow mark, due to his attack.

Shim quickly used his appraisal the results appeared quickly.

[Ding]

[The door of an immortal serpent]

[Immortal serpents soul has been captured in the door, and will only open to the key of four souled salamanders]

[Ding]

[Mission]

[Kill the four-souled salamander.]

[Reward: Ancient four soul key.]

[Faliur: ???]

"Alright, but where are these four would salamanders" Shin questioned but he did receive any answer.

Shin frowned and thought of a solution. And an idea quickly entered his mind.

He quickly transformed into calamity form.

His hair and eyes quickly turned pure silver and his body had a massive boost in strength, followed by other boosts.

Shin quickly channeled a lot of mana to his arms, simultaneously using bloody impact.

Boooooooooooooommmmmmm! High shockwaves spread through the whole tower.

Suddenly four chameleons were visible on the wall.

They quickly jumped towards Shin.

Without a moment's hesitation, he activated his Dragon form. His hair and eyes transformed into radiant gold, and dragon scales sprouted on his arms

Shin quickly used the dragon domain. Radiant gold energy spreaded marking his domain.

The chameleons pounced, but Shin was ready. He charged forward and delivered a series of rapid strikes with his bare fists. The chameleons recoiled, their movements slowed by the effects of Shin's Dragon Domain.

Shin dodged a laShing tongue and retaliated with a swift kick. The chameleon stumbled back, and Shin followed up with a powerful punch to its jaw.

The other three chameleons circled Shin, their movements slow and sluggish due to the effects of his Dragon Domain. Shin took advantage of their slowed movements and landed a few more blows, striking with precision and speed.

Shin activated his Death form, his hair and eyes turning abyssal black. A murderous aura emanated from him.

The chameleons writhed in agony, their movements becoming slower and more labored. Shin took advantage of their weakened state and delivered a flurry of punches and kicks, striking with deadly precision.

The battle continued for what felt like hours. Shin quickly snapped one of the chameleon's necks. Surprisingly the chameleon stayed dead.

He then once again transforms into his dragon form using his claws to kill another chameleon.

The other two chameleons tried to attack Shin from both sides but unfortunately, were unable to kill him, instead, they met a cruel fate.

Shin quickly grabbed one of the chameleon's fangs and broke it piercing it into the other chameleon's skull killing it.

Shin then loomed at the last remaining chameleon and continued punching and kicking it finally ending his life by breaking its skull.

And as Shin finished the final chameleon he wanted for his reward. Surprisingly their life force didn't enter his body in the form of Exp instead the materialized turned into the shape of a key.

[Ding!]

[Mission completed]

Shin looked at the black key and then at the door

'Is this it...? Now, will I get the gem' Shin thought as he walked forward ready to unlock the door but then he suddenly froze as a thought entered his mind.

'From what I have noticed, the skeleton king can increase or decrease the powers of the undead in his kingdom. And if so, and there's a gem or something valuable in this room...

Why didn't he make the undead chameleons strong enough to kill me? Why...?' To Shin, the answer to his question was pretty much clear.

"Ha-!" Shin started to walk away from the door.

********

In the grand hall, the ministers seemed boredom they were looking at the repeated cycle of Miklis destroying the golem and it was rejoining once again.

And for the first time, the expression of the skeleton king changed.

No, it wasn't of boredom... He wasn't even looking at the screen since the start.

'Did he realize? Now that's interesting. He didn't strike me a as guy with brains.' The skeleton king stood up and suddenly blue aura developed on the place.

A blue flash appeared and in the next movement, the skeleton king had already disappeared.

**********

"Where do you think you're going." As Shin was walking away, he suddenly heard a cold voice that sent chills down his soul.

"I do not have any more business left here I believe. So I think it's best if I leave." Shin said as he quickly turned, ready to use his trump card.

"Don't think I can't sense you channeling mana and the main reason I'm not doing it is that I'm interested in seeing what is your trump card."

But Shin didn't say anything. He just stood there like a statue.

"Sigh looks like I have to make you use your Trump card." Suddenly dark energy accumulated making a bone dragon.

"Roooooooaaaaaarrrrrrrrr!"

At the same time, Shin lifted his arms activating his skill.

[Hymn of the dragon!]

A giant black Circle appeared through which the shadow dragon emerged.

And as soon as the dragon emerged it frowned looking at Shins opponent.

It quickly spoke to Shin Via telepathy.

'Hey kiddo what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself in.'

'The trouble you see in front of you. And the kind... Umm well, I dunno.'

'I suggest you escape!' The shadow dragon exclaimed as he blocked the bone dragon.

'How the hell should I?'

'Just say yes and I will take you out of here!'

'Yes!'

And as the shadow dragon gave another punch to the bone dragon it quickly used its skill.

Shin's body suddenly turned into a shadow and disappeared.

As soon as the skeleton king realized what has happened he lifted his arm blasting the shadow dragon away but it was already too late.

Shin's body emerged from the shadow of a guard standing near the gate.

As soon as Shin's body emerged he quickly spotted the aura of truth that was about to touch him and probably pull him inside.

But Shin quickly channeled all the mana in his body creating an explosion... Which pushed his body outside.historical

On the other hand, the shadow dragon's body faded as Shin deactivated his skills.

"Sigh looks like you were a cautious man after all." The skeleton king said as a blue flash appeared right after which his body disappeared.
