Chapter 32: Forest Dungeon (1)
" Are you sure there is a 'Blue Gate' in this forest? " said one of the Hunters in that area as they were commissioned by the Hunter Association in that area that detects the Blue Gate in that forest.
" It is here, the Gate to the recently opened Rare Dungeon is here. " said the Hunter as he looks at his radar.
As the hunters come out, they then search for the Blue Gate and found it in midst of the forest as they prepared to enter it, but one of them suddenly found a monster corpse.
" Look, I found something!!!! " said the Hunter as she tells the other ones that she found a dark elf monster corpse in the forest bushes as the others then checked on it.
" My device tells me, that this 'Dark Elf' is killed by a sword, and it also analyzes that the mana that still remains from this wound is undeniably a human's mana. "
" This 'Dark Elf' is killed by a human, or I assume to be by a Hunter, like us ... " said the guy as the group leader then asks if he was sure that the culprit is a Hunter like them since he can feel that the person who did this must be from the higher Ranks.
" Dark Elves are usually classified as Tier V monsters, or to be exact it is classified as Rank B+ monsters. " said the group leader.
" If our culprit, the assumed 'Hunter' who enters this Gate before us can kill one of the Dark Elves, then ... "
" Not just one leader, look !!!! " said the female hunter who found the corpse first as she also found many corpses of the slain Dark Elves.
Seeing that, the people there just say by the Heavens as they wondered what kind of Hunter that can do such a massacre.
" There are fifty of them and all are classified as Rank B+ monsters by my device. " said the Hunter with the Portable Scanning Device (PSD).
Seeing that, the Hunters then looked at each other and all of them gulped as they discussed for a minute. After a long discussion, they then decide to enter the Dungeon to uncover the assumed 'Hunter's identity that's been bugging their mind for an hour.
" Let's go people, let's find out which 'Hunter' that caused this brutality. " the leader says as they all enter the Dungeon.
....
( Meanwhile. )
" This is already the half of the Dungeon and it seems the Dark Elves' levels are getting more higher than before. " Donovan says to himself after slaying a big Dark Elf with his Black Shadow Summons.
" Hmmm... "
" System, you there? "
<" Yes User Donovan, at your service, what can I help you? " >
After the System said the question, Donovan then asks that is the System had some miscalculations about this Dungeon since back then when entering the Dungeon, it says that this Dungeon's monsters are around level 31 to 34, but.
" Why do the Dark Elves' levels here is around 40? " Donovan asks as he orders the System to scan the Dungeon again in order to re-check its data which the System does so for a minute.

" The hell, this is a 'Double Dungeon'!? " Donovan shouts while asking as he was shocked and wondered how the hell the Leveling System's scanning result is this miscorrect and missed the data of the other Dungeon that exists within this Dungeon itself.
As he sees that, Donovan then sees his current level which is Level 41, and found out that he is now already able to unlock an advanced class from his Summoner class which the System gives him, which is.
< Advanced Class: >
< Necromancer >
< Do you Accept? or should the System offer you a new one? >
< Accept | Reroll >
As he sees that, Donovan then asks the System what's the difference between the Necromancer class with his current summoning skill which is the Black Shadow Summoning the System answered him as it tells him that the Black Shadow Summons is the monster he gained from the *Black Hand Tree's memory, not from the enemies he killed.
But if Donovan accepts the [Necromancer] Class, then Donovan can surely expand the Black Shadow Summons' numbers by not just unlocking the already available Black Shadow Summons inside the System Space and inside his body, but also gaining more Black Shadow Summons from enemies he killed.
Hearing that, Donovan considered it for a bit and decides to accept the advanced class which the System then starts installing the Class to him.
< Class Installing Initiated >
< Installing Advanced Class: Necromancer to User Donovan >
< Installing Installing >
During the Class Install, Donovan then suddenly those <Vague Memory Voices> inside his mind again as it tells him.
" Necromancer, nice .... "
" With this, I can use my powerful enemies as my powerful servants. "
" What do you say? isn't it cool? "
As the voices appear in his mind, Donovan then put his hands on his head asking the voices to stop and asks the System about the <Vague Memory Voices> Basic Passive Skills that are currently active right now for whatever reasons which the System explains that those memories are.
< " User Donovan, those vague memories are from the previous era, the era before Ragnarok! " > System explains to Donovan.
" Oh really!!? and why do I even have it!!? " Donovan says as these memories always give him a headache on some occasions as if he had experienced it before.
" Also, who do these memories belong to!!? " Donovan says as he knows as hell that he is only *nine years old based on what the doctor classified him to be which makes him think that whoever memories these are, belongs to someone else, not him since he doesn't experience it firsthand while the System tells that the [Necromancer] Class has been installed as the System notifies him.
< Advance Class: Necromancer Installed >
After that, after the long absurd debacle, Donovan then decides to use the Necromancer Class's Skill which is.
< Class Skill: >
< Raising the Dead Servants -- (lvl.1) >
< " This skill lets, the Black Shadow Magic raise the dead, turning them into the Black Shadows. " >
" Let's see ... "
" Okay then, <Raise the Dead Sevants> !!!! " Donovan says the word as the dead Dark Elves that he had slain now rise as his new Black Shadow Servants, a servant to the Child From the Black Shadows.
" Now this is cool. " Donovan says as he then goes forward to enter the second Dungeon with his new army.

( At the same time. )
The Hunters, the late hunters now had come to Donovan's place that he had just gone earlier as they see more corpses of the Dark Elves.
" Whoever did this .... must be immediately identified and be questioned? " said the Hunter group leader who was very stressed after seeing the whole thing.
