The After Maximum In All Class
CHAPTER 17

Lillian was surprised to see her master extend a hand and press down on the skeleton head. “Be careful, sir. He'll catch you.”

As soon as he spoke, the skeletal hand caught Robb's ankle and tried to drag him underground.

Robb can destroy the skeleton at any time, but he knows that it was once a relative of the townspeople, so it is not good to destroy it. The townspeople called him father, so he had to pay a little attention and take care of their affairs.

Therefore, he had to give up on using the skills: Meteor Rain, Rending Earth, and Crushing Thunder. He would be a little gentle and at least let his brother's skeleton guard his entire body.

As soon as the skeleton was about to drag Robb away, he felt a terrifying strength in his skull: the strength of the man's arm in front of him. He seemed to be pressing down lightly, but his strength was incredible. The skeletal bones cracked several times, trying to fight back, but how could it withstand it. He was returned to his grave in an instant.

  He wanted to climb up again, but when he saw Robb pointing at him, a golden light shot out from his fingertips. It was holy magic “Dispel.” The skeleton suddenly lost all its strength and returned to a state of death in the grave.

Robb clapped his hands, turned to Lillian next to him, and said, “Lillian, bury!”

“Ya sir!” Lillian quickly used a shovel to push away any remaining dirt on either side of the hole, which the skeleton used to come out and cover it up again. He was a little afraid that the skeleton would climb up again, so he was ready to escape, but the skeleton was completely motionless and was buried obediently.

Robb has found a second skeleton, half of his body out of the ground. As soon as Robb pressed it with his hand, the skeleton returned to his grave, and after using “Dispel,” he said, “Lillian, after burying him, come and bury this.”

“Ya sir!”

  Around this time, a third skeleton had crawled out of his grave. He shook off the dirt on his body and looked around. This person was different from the two skeletons earlier. He seemed sane enough to understand what was happening around him. He then turned his head and looked at Robb with sunken eyes.

Seeing Robb getting closer, apparently wanting to return him to his grave, suddenly his left arm was broken with his right hand. Then, he held his left arm in his right hand like a cane and stared intently at Robb.

“With good!” Robb shrugs towards that skeleton: “Don't hurt yourself. I can leave your body intact if you put down your weapon and speak well.”

Young man.Don't.Urus your own business.The skull spoke unexpectedly. It is clear that there is only one bone and it does not have a mouth or any other organ used for speech, but it can speak.

Robb noticed that two small flames were burning in the skeleton's eye sockets, which looked like a pair of eye beads, and it was evident that there was a soul settling in that skeleton. It was no longer as simple as two skeletons being manipulated by some simple puppet tricks. This time, a powerful soul controlled the movements of that skeleton.

  “Oh! Astrologer?” Robb looked left and right. The slope of the hill behind the grave was dark, and it was hard to see anything clearly. And even when using his detection, night vision, and 5000-yard range, he still could not see anyone. Come to think of it carefully, there must be a necromancer manipulating the skeletons nearby.

“How can you know that I am a necromancer?” The skull was shocked: “Then, you should know that I am not a person you can hurt. Take care of your own business.” Since Robb was wearing pajamas, he couldn't see Robb as a strong person; so he spoke arrogantly.

Robb said, “You ran into my backyard and tried to steal my son's relatives' bones, and you told me to take care of my own business? Damn it, I went to your backyard to secretly dig up your buried potatoes. Can you ignore me ?”

Robb said, “You deserve to die. Your whole family deserves to die.”

“This is obviously an empty chapel. When did you come here?” The skull looked a little angry.

“Unfortunately, today.” Robb says, “Don't you scout locations first before stealing? Oh, right, your main body is hidden very far away, so you can't even scout the place. You only used things like the magic array set up here before to manipulate them remotely, right? I'll search for him carefully later. I should have been able to find your magic array in some area of the graveyard.”

Listening to his words, the necromancer who manipulated the skeleton understood that he was messing with someone he was incapable of! This isn't good. The skull had no choice but to attack, or he had to give up on all the graves in this village.

He manipulated the skeleton and waved his left hand before charging towards Robb.

Yet….

Robb used “Dispel”, and the skeleton fell gently on his feet.

Clearly, necromancers did not have the time to refine this skeleton into a real undead monster. If it was purified, the use of a simple dispel would not be able to stop it, at least with holy magic. But now, since it was only remotely controlled by necromancers, it was a soulless skeleton, not a skeleton warrior!

The magic used to control the skeleton from a distance was, in theory, just a buff. One dispel is enough to eliminate the buff effect.

If the necromancer's main body was here, he might be able to play around with Robb a little. But with a remotely controlled frame, it wasn't even worth playing for Robb. It only needs a regular dispel to handle it. Even ordinary priests can do it.

When the skeleton fell gently to the ground, the two sparks in his eye sockets slowly dimmed, and the magic necromancer disappeared, thus returning to being an ordinary skeleton. Robb was just about to ask Lillian to come and dig the skeleton back into his grave; then, he suddenly recalled that the little girl was a little afraid of the skeleton. Isn't it scary to move that creepy skeleton?

Unfortunately, I will do it.

He thought while working; his magic crept into the skeleton.

The skeleton immediately began to move, and two more sparks lit up in his eyes, but this time manipulated by Robb, not by the necromancer.

He first took back his broken left arm and shook his hands and feet, making sure no arms and legs were missing. Then, he grinned widely and clicked twice. Then he tried to make a face on nearby Lillian, which was meaningless as she had no facial muscles. In Lillian's eyes, the skeleton simply shook its head towards her, creaking back to its grave. He lay down, folded his hands on his chest, and the spark in his eyes slowly dimmed again.

Robb ended the spell of “Skeleton Control” and smiled, then said to the dumbfounded Lillian, “This tomb is also!”
