A few minutes before...
Skullius and Red Rage reached the village which had been a vast distance away a couple of hours ago.
Skullius was in his cosmetic flesh while donning his tattered robes while Red Rage was in his Capital Knight armour that had been damaged after receiving a storm of magical attacks from the Cursed Knight.
It had been saved by the defence rendered by his skill, [Pelvis Boar-Man Majestic Attire] otherwise, he would be a naked walking skeleton.
Following the event where Skullius had returned to his Fulgurant Bone Penetrator form, Skullius had passed the time by trying to take the skills from magical items as he had intended to before.
His class as the [Vehement Bone Nullmancer] allowed him to use Null Life Essence as a connection to mana based constructs like he had done with goblin staves back then.
He tried to do the same with [Demion's Dance], extracting the skills from the sword.
