Description

A young boy’s dreams of surpassing the greatest necromancer in modern history and taking over the world are distorted when his first attempt at summoning a skeleton goes awry as the skeleton melts and becomes a puddle in front of his eyes. His creams crack when the second attempt summons a skeleton that takes off into the sky like it was shot out of a cannon. And his dreams are finally shattered when his third attempt summons a skeleton that explodes and almost kills him.

However, getting close to dying isn't enough to stop a necromancer. Not even death would be enough! So Ritzy takes the pieces of his shattered dreams and welds them together with his fiery passion for the dark arts of Necromancy. If the conventional way of necromancy won't work, Ritzy will pave a new path to the top of the world as the Strongest Unconventional Necromancer!

Overall;
This story has quite a bit of intriguing prospects. Firstly, a necromancer who cant summon anything? Or, rather, is he a necromancer who's just insanely unlucky? Perhaps he's cursed, or something's wrong with his mana. Who knows. It can go any number of ways -- though I have my own theory based on a bit of dialogue between two characters. The story portrays itself as a fun and lighthearted comedy rather than anything too serious; It's good for a light read, but if you're looking for in-depth lore, world building, and the deep dark secrets of necromancy this might not be what you're here for.
Style;
The comedy aspect is wonderfully incorporated throughout every chapter. Never a dull moment, never anything too boring happening. Jokes all around in a fun and rather unique way for a necromancy fic.
Grammar;
Some mistakes here and there, though, just about the same as any other RR fiction.
Story;
The fun and lighthearted nature of it basically guarantees a five star since it's not meant to be taken too seriously. There's really no need to build up a world if all of your characters are just charicatures of themselves; hardly any time to do things when most of the story is lighthearted jokes and pitiful necromancy.
Characters;
This is the lowest score. It's not hard to see why. Although the story isnt too far into development, it's still far enough that in my opinion we should have reasons behind the way characters act. Reasons why they think things. Reasons why they do what they do. But, again, the lighthearted nature of this story acts as a counterbalance to that more-so serious part of character development.
TLDR;
Good for a light read. Recommended.
