Chapter 168: B2: C68: Fun and Facts 2
Loner buckled and dropped to one knee. Everyone except for Zarian was more or less open about their concern for their favorite skelly boy, but nobody stepped in. Zarian was already next to Loner and waiting as the goblin skeleton went through a metamorphosis.
His bones blackened and thickened. He grew a few inches taller. Then a flash of white and blue symbols appeared all over his bones, contrasting the dark color.
The blackened bones and new rune enchantments made the skeleton look more impressive. Strong waves of runic power flowed from out of his skeletal body. Loner stayed down for a little while before he shook his head as the changes finished.
Then Loner rose back to his feet again. He stood as tall as Naomi, which was much taller than Hannah and most of the skeletons. He had broader shoulders, too. And he had a demanding presence that oozed authority.
Zarian checked his golden notifications.
<Goblin Skeleton Loner has advanced to having a rank: Runic Enforcer Expert!>
<Your summons, Goblin Skeleton Loner, gained 3 new traits: Battle Expert, Aura Battery, and Leadership Mastery.>
<Your summons, Goblin Skeleton Loner, gained 3 new skills: Rune Blast Force, Darkness Jettison, and Raise Helpful Skeletons.>
“Oh, wow,” Zarian said. “I know what it means to be an expert. Loner is ranked now. He’s like a mini Master Ranker while still Level 74.”
