Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

Chapter 288



[ Episode 288. Wave Clear and Hidden Peace]

Agatha, who was chasing after Adrias, took out her bow and was surprised by the wings that suddenly appeared.

However, realizing that it was created by Adrias, I blankly watched him run ahead.

‘It’s full of unknown things.’

Until I first received his request, I thought she would be in charge of everything.

From chores to checking the route to the ruins and attacking the inside of the ruins.

Adrias’ fame had been heard, but she thought that he was an ordinary aristocrat with only a certain amount of strength.

But…

“Me too first.”

Following Adrias, who was ahead, Vivian caught up with her at breakneck speed.

I got to know them while working with them, but they were so talented that I wondered why their fame didn’t spread until now.

Although it was famous at Rodlen Academy, a place where the best talents of the continent gathered, in her eyes, it just felt like chicks measuring their height to see who was taller.

It was definitely like that until a few days ago.

Wow!

At the scene that began to appear before I knew it, a grotesque monster with a huge size was bleeding from all over its body.

-Kikiiik!

-Guwwuck!

The heads of unknown beasts hung here and there were screaming.

Muto Kinein, famous as the mercenary king, was facing such a monster with his sword in the scabbard.

When Muto Kinein, whose black hair was bleached white before he knew it, unleashed his hair, the deafening noise he had heard before coming came out.

Phiing—-

Quaaaaaang——–!

The red sword split the earth and erased everything in its path.

The monster was also hit by the attack, and its body was split and blood was spilled.

The famous Muto Kinein’s Aura Biggi Gaebyeok (開闢).

“Agatha!”

While frantically enjoying Muto’s aura, Adrias approached the monster and called her name.

“Focus only on the wolf-looking face! Right now!”

“yes!”

She didn’t know why she was only aiming for the wolf’s head, but her arm stiffened as she pulled out her bow, feeling that she had something to do.

I’ve been traveling so far and I’ve never been able to help.

Adrias was so good at homelessness that it was hard to believe that he was a high-ranking aristocrat called a count, and he was also good at making his way through mountains and forests.

The ability he showed when he competed with the black magician named Pycy and the confidence he showed on the sea made him a person worthy of being called a superman.

‘I’m so versatile that I wouldn’t have the meaning of my existence if I didn’t have a mission.’

If it wasn’t for the mission given to him by his own people, he could have returned with a refund of the request fee out of embarrassment.

It was Agatha who even felt joy at the fact that such an outstanding person was asking for her help.

ping!

The arrows that were picked up again while collecting stone fragments set off with a bang sound.

Although he didn’t have strong destructive power like the other characters, he was more confident than anyone else in terms of accuracy.

Fuck!

got it right

But she fired the next arrow without a break.

Agatha could accurately shoot 30 arrows per minute.

The body, which was strengthened as a mixed blood of mana and beast, made it possible to freely handle the bow, which is difficult for ordinary people to shoot even one shot in 10 seconds.

Furbuck!

“Good job! Shoot until you run out of arrows!”

Adrias shouted, but Agatha, who focused on the target, couldn’t hear it properly and fired arrows nonstop.

Tick!

“ah!”

Then, when he felt all the fallen arrows and checked the quiver, an intense energy of mana hovered over the battlefield.

“Now let’s finish it slowly.”

Muto’s voice echoed and his sword was drawn again.

Phiing—–

Slowly!

The hairy arm that rose above the monster’s neck was cut off in an instant.

After that, Vivian, who had burrowed into the monster’s arms, performed a sword dance.

Furbuck!

In an instant, a bloody crystal was found in the body of the monster, which was torn apart.

– Bear.

A creepy word.

Adrias, wearing strange wings, fluttered once, appeared in front of the monster as if he had moved through space, and swung a pure white sword.

Sgung!

Damn it!

A black aura cut through the crystal.

Agatha, who had excellent eyesight, could see from afar that the center of the crystal was cracking and breaking apart.

“It’s done.”

cooong!

Adrias’s words announcing the end were heard as the giant monster collapsed.

Agatha, who thought that no matter how talented a magician she was, she might be able to shoot with her bow, was speechless.

“It was a monster that I couldn’t defeat even with my aura. But if you do what Earl Cromwell said, it will be over in an instant. What the hell did you do?”

“I am a wizard. It is also my role to identify the enemy’s weaknesses.”

Muto tried to ask something with an unconvinced expression, but Adrias only washed away the blood from Vivian’s body with magic.

“Agatha also suffered. That wolf-shaped head was responsible for regenerating the monster, so I was able to finish it easily.”

“Yes…”

Agatha could only nod.

Then, he approached the corpse and began to collect the arrows again.

‘What should I do?’

He was carrying out his mission in a way that seemed to deceive the client at the request of his fellow countrymen, but the more he looked at it, the more Adrias didn’t want to become an enemy.

No matter how much his people asked for it, his life was more precious.

‘I have to think about it a bit…….’

Agatha’s worries deepened.

**

“Can I have the body?”

At my question, Muto shook his hand as he ran his black hair back.

“Thank you for helping me, but I need to do the math right away.”

“I’ll give you 50 pieces of stone.”

– Bear.

A creepy word.

Adrias, wearing strange wings, fluttered once, appeared in front of the monster as if he had moved through space, and swung a pure white sword.

Sgung!

Damn it!

A black aura cut through the crystal.

Agatha, who had excellent eyesight, could see from afar that the center of the crystal was cracking and breaking apart.

“It’s done.”

cooong!

Adrias’s words announcing the end were heard as the giant monster collapsed.

“Can I have the body?”

At my question, Muto shook his hand as he ran his black hair back.

“Thank you for helping me, but I need to do the math right away.”

“I’ll give you 50 pieces of stone.”

“Well, it’s less than the cost of our children’s lives, but I’m not the only one who caught it… so that’s what I do.”

In fact, if it wasn’t for me, I would have suffered a lot, but I didn’t want to bother.

Fifty pieces of stone isn’t even that big of a deal considering the number we just got.

A lot of them died anyway.

There were roughly 30 people in the Kinein Mercenary Corps, but now there were at most 10 people left.

‘Honestly, our strength was ridiculous.’

To come with two warlocks, three masters.

The rest of the staff were never weak.

Moreover, thanks to meeting the enemy at a place I had thought of beforehand, I was able to deal with it without hurt.

Originally, that was normal.

“I need to do some tidying up. Suzan! Identify the dead and tell the normal ones to pick up some stones!”

“yep! older brother!”

Even though the members died, there seemed to be no emotion of sadness.

It was just a response that they were familiar with their deaths.

“Mejour returned to his abode. If you go all the way to 4 o’clock from here, you will be able to exchange the stones for a reward there.”

“okay. Any calculations before that?”

Just in time, Luna approached, took the Chimera Golem’s corpse as an artifact, counted the stone fragments, and handed them to me.

“Forty eight forty nine fifty! Here it is!”

“thank you. Take this off of me.”

I immediately handed over the piece of stone and turned around.

“I will go first.”

“Will this happen again?”

“well. You should see it. I intend to ask Mejour first.”

“I need to get it sorted out quickly.”

You don’t ask for help even if you die.

The calculation was meticulous like a mercenary king.

Anyway, since I even recovered the body of the Chimera Golem, I finished my business in this wave.

As for the Chimera Golem, it was my turn to exchange the reward for now, whether I made a core for it later or separated the parts and used them individually.

The items that can be exchanged from Mejour are quite good, and there are also named items, so it was worth looking forward to.

‘I’ll have to hunt more to exchange the named item.’

No worries about stone chips.

It was because I was thinking of going to solve the hidden peace after visiting Mejour once.

When I returned to the place where Mejour was with my party, I saw Pycy who had arrived before I knew it.

You didn’t come to help Muto, you came right here.

“Did you visit Muto?”

“yes. I didn’t expect you to come this way right away.”

“I wondered if the mercenary king of the world would die. And the same thing could happen again.”

Paisy, who is now alone with Lago, asked Mejour as if everything went well.

“Did you know this would happen?”

“If you say something like this…?”

“Don’t pretend. The madmen you speak of just came pouring out in droves.”

Paishy, who didn’t even bother to cover her face anymore, looked like a resident of this kingdom.

When she grabbed Mejour and got angry, it became a natural scene for some reason.

“I really don’t know. Please do not be angry.”

“Ha, that’s it. So how much is that?”

“It is 751.”

“It is too expensive. shave it off.”

Watching the casual bargaining, I also asked Luna to take out a piece of stone.

We also need to settle down slowly.

“I will distribute the pieces of stone. First, I subtract 50 from my share.”

The total number of stone fragments we obtained was about 6500.

It was a natural number since they had beaten and destroyed the undead for half a day, but it was a huge number.

The elite undead dropped several pieces of stone, so if you include the ones that didn’t come out, you caught about 10,000 of them.

“I guess I can take 800 of them.”

“All that’s left is to have a friend. Because he is our captain!”

When we tried to distribute the pieces of stone, the party each tried to take only 800 pieces.

Just looking at it, I could see that he cared for me, so I readily accepted it.

“I will not decline. thank you.”

Even though I spent 50 on Muto, it was 900 for me.

Still, it wasn’t enough to get all the items I wanted with this.

But there are things you can buy right now.

An item that allows access to the Hidden Peace.

“Since the distribution is over, take a break and see you in 12 hours. You worked hard.”

“Can we hunt separately?”

“yes. I won’t worry because they are great warriors.”

“haha! nice!”

We’ve been fighting all day, so we need to rest.

Of course, I’m going to break the hidden piece in that gap.

Luna was clinging to Rago and chattering.

Noah and Agatha were also busy looking at the items that Mejour had put out, and the northerners went out as if they were not tired.

“what are you going to do now?”

Only Vivian remained by my side, tilting her head.

“Let’s take a look. It seems like there are a lot of strange things.”

“huh.”

Vivian and I also looked at the items Mejour displayed.

In the game, it just came out in the game window, but it feels a little complicated when it is displayed like this.

‘I didn’t bring out the good ones.’

There was nothing surprising in the game as the list was unlocked according to the number of stone pieces possessed.

By the way, the thing I was looking for was…….

“Oh mejour.”

“Tell me, Lord Cromwell.”

“Do you have anything related to archery? As you can see, our group are archers.”

Before that, let’s take care of Agata.

Actually, it’s a funny story to take care of her who might become an enemy, but she wasn’t that scary.

Now she is a seed that has not even germinated.

‘Before that, I’ll try to make it on my side somehow.’

Overhearing our conversation, Agatha awkwardly bowed her head toward me and thanked me.

Mejour thought about my question for a while and then said.

“Please wait a moment.”

Soon after, Mejour entered through the inner door and came out again holding something.

“There are many, but this is the one I recommend.”

came right out

It was the item I was thinking of.

[Luella’s sincerity]

[Mana conductivity 60%]

[You can create intangible arrows using mana.]

It was a thin glove.

The color was light enough to feel transparent and there was no decoration, but its presence was great.

“Gloves?”

Vivian looked at her curiously and muttered.

Before I knew it, not only Agatha but also Noah and Pycy came to see the gloves.

“This glove can use mana to create arrows. As long as we have enough mana, we can continue to create them.”

“iced coffee!”

Agatha, who had been struggling with the number of arrows, exclaimed in surprise.

It was the same that other people cast their gazes in surprise.

“It is a powerful artifact. Of course it will be expensive, right?”

Paisy looked interested and asked Mejour.

Then Mejour said the price casually.

“It is 9444.”

“……It’s impossible.”

It seems that Paisy secretly intended to live.

It was also said that it was a good artifact.

“Ah…”

Agatha, whose exclamation that came out a moment ago turned into a sigh, was hidden under the hood, but at a glance she had droopy ears.

“Agatha still has a lot of time. You can buy it with a little effort.”

“yes.”

She nodded, as if my words had helped a little.

Then, still unable to take his eyes off the gloves, he turned around.

“I will hunt and come back.”

“Take care of yourself. If possible, go with Itaya and the others.”

“Thank you for your consideration. See you in 12 hours.”

I am very full of desire.

This might make you think about the scene for a while.

As soon as I got to Agatha, I started looking at things in earnest.

I didn’t want to show off what I knew, so I looked around slowly, and then I finally found what I was looking for.

“What is this?”

“It’s a small… statue.”

Mejour spoke vaguely, as if it was a bit awkward even after he said it himself.

Mejour would have thought this item was just an antique.

“how much?”

“Five.”

Also very cheap price.

But this was real life, not a game.

I mean, it’s possible to bargain.

“2.”

“That doesn’t work. five.”

“Three.”

“Five.”

“Let’s cut just one. four.”

“Ummm…….”

It’s a little absurd that I do this shit with just a piece of stone.

Both Picy and Vivian were looking at me with strange expressions.

“All right. I have the grace that brought me this far, so I’ll give you four.”

“Satara. thank you.”

“yes?”

“no. Four here.”

I gave 4 pieces of stone and looked at the mountain statue.

As expected, the hidden piece I knew was right.

“Why did you buy that?”

“It is a hobby.”

I couldn’t get rid of Paish’s strange expression and asked, but I can’t tell you straight away.

I asked Vivian, who was standing next to me.

“Doesn’t Vivian want anything?

“huh. I want to collect more so I can buy something good.”

“Then let’s go hunting with me.”

“good.”

It is the beginning of the hidden peace exploration with Vivian.
