Magic: My equipment slots have no restrictions

Viktor called out to Ruhr, but when he didn't see Ruhr come out, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

He glanced at the skeleton on the ground and saw that it didn't change much for the time being.

He then turned around, frowning as he looked at a bush that was clearly protruding not far behind him.

"Are you... mistaking me for a skeleton soldier?"

His tone was as calm as his expression.

But when Ruhr, who was lying in the bushes, saw the boy's calm and emotionless face, a chill ran down his spine.

Especially when he met the boy's indifferent black eyes, he instantly understood... the mage was very displeased!

In an instant, the image of the opponent crushing the Skeleton Overlord with a single finger and defeating him with ease came into view again.

"You haven't come to the wrong person."

Ruhr quickly emerged from the bushes, ignoring the pain from the branches scratching his face, and practically tumbled and crawled to Viktor's side.

Despite not being cursed in any way, he suddenly knelt down, bracing himself on the ground with his arms, and said in a terrified expression:

"Master Mage... I am Ruhr."

He stammered as he spoke, and he seemed genuinely terrified, his eyes slightly reddening with fear.

"I don't know what mistake I've made that requires your personal judgment?"

You have broken the law.

Upon hearing Ruhr's words, Viktor couldn't help but mutter to himself, but on the surface he just shook his head and sighed.

This guy, despite being a dwarf, doesn't seem to possess the courage that his race is born with. Yet, this coward has his own ideas.

I really feel sorry for Miles; thankfully, he has no intention of managing a territory.

"Don't get me wrong, Ruhr. Think carefully about what you've actually done."

As Victor spoke, he reached out his hand to the dwarf, whose personality was less than agreeable.

"..."

Ruhr hadn't lost his mind; he just did, as Viktor had suspected, lack some courage.

However, precisely because of this, he didn't pay much attention to his ugly state, but subconsciously followed the mage's will and began to recall.

Yes, I... I secretly stumbled into the newly discovered path leading to the outside world.

Could it be that I've been here too long and attracted everyone's attention...?

"So, Master, you haven't come to judge me?"

He couldn't help but voice his thoughts aloud.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he immediately realized what he had said, and his arms, which were supporting him on the ground, began to tremble uncontrollably.

How foolish, Ruhr! Use the same wisdom you have when dodging skeletons!

He cried out in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what to do.

"I'm here to save you, Ruhr."

Until Viktor suddenly spoke, Ruhr felt all the noise in his mind shattered by that voice, and even his trembling arms calmed down.

"Master."

He slowly raised his head, looking at the face that showed no anger or smile, and then slowly reached out and grasped the boy's hand.

Seeing that Ruhr hesitated for a full three seconds before finally coming to his senses, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

He helped the other person up and patted him on the shoulder: "Go back and apologize to Myerstan yourself."

"Yes, I will."

Ruhr dared not refuse, but after the brief interlude, he looked at the boy who was a head taller than him and forced a smile.

Viktor gestured to the other person with his eyes that they could leave.

Rulton felt as if he had been granted a pardon and was about to turn and leave.

But before leaving, he suddenly recalled Lord Miles's usual attitude towards the mage, and changed his mind about leaving immediately.

Although the mage seemed completely unconcerned, he still bowed somewhat awkwardly.

"Thank you for your help, Master. I will keep your actions today confidential if you need it."

"..."

Viktor glanced at Ruhr, surprised that the other man could still think of such a thing at this moment:

"It's fine, you can decide whether to publicize it or not."

After saying that, he ignored the other person.

Seeing this, Ruhr breathed a slight sigh of relief and turned to walk outside.

After walking a few steps, he saw in the distance that the wall that had blocked his way had disappeared.

Yes, there was absolutely no sign of any mechanism retracting; it was exactly the same as when he came in.

For some reason, his mind, which had just regained its composure, began to stir again at this moment, and he subconsciously quickened his pace, rushing out of the cave.

"..."

Seeing that Ruhr had finally left, Viktor felt extremely pleased.

But just as his thoughts began to wander, the equipment menu popped up on its own.

[You have received the reward for defeating the Level 0 Overlord]

Then the equipment list started to scroll down rapidly, and soon it reached the last item's location.

It was a small skull, emitting no light and without any decoration; it was simply a human skull.

[Universal Dungeon Key]

[Note: Use this when you want to open the dungeon gate.]

Although it was only a brief summary, Victor realized the value of the item, and his eyes lit up slightly.

"This is the reward I received for defeating the Skeleton Lord, right? And now that I have this key, does that mean I can open any dungeon in the future...?"

As Viktor thought this, his mind stirred slightly.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the cave entrance, and at the cave entrance where Ruhr could not see anything unusual, a stone wall with the same shape as the previous wall rose from the ground.

Before long, the opening was sealed up again. The only difference from before was that the walls were no different now.

Under Victor's magical vision, the four seals on the wall were no longer visible.

"What a pity. It seems that even with this special item, we can't reactivate the door that has already been cracked."

Victor wasn't disappointed.

He looked down at the Skeleton Overlord, who was still lying motionless on the ground, his glowing body now completely transformed into cursed flames.

Victor couldn't tell whether a necromancer was alive or dead, even by judging its magical activity.

Based solely on the information provided in the equipment menu, the opponent should be completely dead.

"They were really tenacious; they held on for a full six minutes before finally dying."

Viktor spoke casually, glancing at the mess around him, his expression turning somewhat amused.

Suddenly, the broken bones and fragments on the ground began to move slowly, and some pieces of bone had even pieced themselves back together.

These were the skeletons that had been killed by the [Hand of the Mage] with the rusty sword, and now they were unsurprisingly beginning to resurrect.

This is the characteristic of undead creatures: "rebirth".

But Victor didn't care and started walking deeper into the zero level.

After using the Cursed Flame this time, he gained a new understanding of his ability.

Creatures killed by the cursed flames will lose all life force from the inside out, including undead creatures, which cannot be reborn once killed.

Therefore, all the skeletons on this level can regenerate, but the Overlord cannot regenerate no matter what.
