Episode 150. Even if he turned the successor
Auror Master into an undead, he could not use the aura secret he had used before.
If he had been able to use Aura Secret, the Necromancer would have created an army of Aura Masters and conquered the world.
‘But nickel can be used.’
Of course, there is a limit that it can only be used once every 6 days, but that’s somewhere.
Its usefulness was proved enough just by defeating the Sword Demon Hosan, who was close to being an Aura Master.
clap.
Nickel and Ludelon faced each other in the empty lot of ruins.
In terms of appearance, Ludelon, which was all black, looked much more atmospheric, but Nickel, who was fluttering his uniform and crossing his arms leisurely, was also not easy.
“He is a very distinctive guy. I think he must have been around the same age as me.”
With Morne’s words, Ludelon finally started to move.
Since he was also an Auror Master, the swordsmanship he used in his lifetime was melted into it.
Kang!
Nickel stepped back about half a step, minimizing the impact.
At the same time, it was seen that he was pulling the other party into his territory as it was.
‘not bad.’
Nickel, who is reading my thoughts in real time, was also aware of his physical disadvantage.
That’s why I was aiming for a counter with a defensive tactic.
Huung.
After all, the fearsome destructive power that reminded me of being a Death Knight stayed in the opponent’s sword, but the nickel didn’t hit me. Rather, he barely managed to avoid it and touched Ludelon’s armor.
“You’re definitely a Master of Auror. Besides, it shows skill.”
So far, both sides have been able to afford it.
But both I and I knew that that balance would soon collapse.
That’s because there was a gap that couldn’t be filled between Phantom and Death Knight.
Quagga go!
Kang! Quadduk!
As expected, nickel, which seemed to be able to hold on at first, was gradually pushed back.
No matter how defensive tactics were used, the limits were clear.
Even if there were passives due to original sin, they were only abilities that had nothing to do with physical abilities.
‘If I collect other sins, will my physical ability improve?’
Regardless of the current sparring, I had a sudden idea.
And soon there was a roar.
Aaaaang-!
Red energy began to flow from Ludelon’s body.
One of Ludelon’s characteristics is Brutal Tempest.
A monster-like trait that temporarily enables attacks that ignore inertia in addition to improving physical abilities.
This was not good news for Nickel, who was already being pushed back.
I immediately conveyed the information I knew to Nickel in my thoughts.
Then Nickel, who read my thoughts, stepped back without looking back.
Quaggagak!
However, Ludelon, which boasts tremendous speed, easily followed the retreating Nickel, and scars gradually began to be engraved on Nickel’s body.
“This is great enough. Why don’t we stop here before he gets hurt?”
I don’t know if I thought I had already won.
Naturally, I declined.
“I’m sorry, but it’s not over yet.”
“Hehe, then what…. I will respect your opinion.”
Nickel’s body, whose scars were gradually increasing, looked dangerous as if it would collapse at any moment.
But I trusted my nickel and waited.
‘Certainly I can’t ignore the physical specs.’
Although slightly lower than the Bone Dragon, the body of the Death Knight, which still belongs to the highest tier, far exceeded the athletic ability of Nickel, which was only tier 5.
‘but….’
We have hidden numbers.
That’s why I trusted Nickel and quietly held my breath.
I knew he would give me a sign soon.
[Sloth Phantom (Legend) wants to use Sloth.]
[Sloth Phantom (Legend) and Sloth’s cooldown will be shared.]
[Do you accept?]
And the signal came right away.
“I don’t know.”
“hmm?”
As I murmured, Morne tilted his head, and at the same time, Nickel let out a blue ghost.
Nickel, whose specs went up at once due to his special skill, did not miss the opportunity while avoiding Ludelon’s attack.
A simple downward slash that seems too ordinary compared to other aura masters’ aura beats.
It happened in an instant.
Quadduk!
With a harsh grinding sound, something black fell at Morn’s feet.
When Morne identified the black object, he laughed.
“Heh heh heh….”
something that happened in the blink of an eye.
Since Morne is a wizard, he might not have known what had happened.
“What the hell just happened? Did I see it right?”
said Morne, picking up something that had fallen at his feet.
What he picked up was Ludelon’s arm.
The sword was still clenched in the right arm that had flown in with the black armor.
“I was able to hide it, so I came out with confidence. I’m sorry if you were offended.”
“no. Rather, I am not surprised. I knew in advance that you could have hidden it from your confident appearance, but I didn’t expect it to be to this extent.”
Having said that, Morne immediately summoned Ludelon and intertwined their arms.
I put them together casually, but as a necromancer I know how ridiculous that is.
‘It’s really great. I don’t even dare to follow.’
Morne, who had attached Ludelon’s arm at once as if it was nothing, ordered the summoning to be released, and then approached Nickel.
Nickel, who had finished his indolence while using Aura Biggi, was in a state of half exhaustion and looked at such a helpless Morne.
“That movement that was seen a moment ago. It was temporary, but it was a great power. Instead, there must be aftereffects.”
“It’s difficult to tell because it’s a trump number.”
“Heh, no matter how hard I thought Phantom would beat Death Knight. Of course, if my Ludelon hadn’t been vigilant, I wouldn’t have known how the match would turn out… ….”
With that said, I concede.
No matter how much Aura Biggie can be used, the body specs of Nickel and Ludelon showed an overwhelming difference.
Of course, the specs of nickel temporarily went up, but even so, it was too much to follow the movement of Ludelon, who activated the Death Knight’s characteristics.
‘If I knew that an aura would come out, Ludelon wouldn’t have dealt with me.’
But in the end, I was the winner.
Even if I didn’t know, I guessed that I had a hidden number, but as it was in the end, the assumption of if was meaningless.
One thing I’m worried about is that I don’t know if I’m going to have a different mind… ….
“Um…. Is that last move original magic? Could it be that you have already become a Warlock?”
“It is not. It is expedient.”
“Tsk. I’m sorry, but it would be rude if I ask deeply. More than that, the identity of this guy is also strange. He was definitely a high-level Auror Master.”
“This is a corpse accidentally obtained from the Bin Hartz National Cemetery in the Empire. I don’t know the exact information, and I just made it from a corpse I accidentally got.”
“Hmm. okay first….”
While watching Nickel with interest, he soon approached me and summoned an undead.
Made from the corpses of giant flesh golems, it gave off a terrible stench.
“A promise is a promise…. take it.”
The flesh golem vomited something inside.
The thing he vomited out was none other than the rally ring he bet on.
“Can you give it to me so easily?”
The ring is an item that only exists in 10 in the assembly.
Even if there were so many unknowns, there was a high probability that they only had two, or perhaps only one.
Morne just smiled quietly at my question.
“My faction owns only one ring. I’m too old. My body and mind are too tired to open a new era.”
He put the ring directly on my hand.
“The history of the rally is also quite long. However, during that long period of time, not a single person became the owner of the meeting. And I didn’t even think it would show up.”
His hands were rough.
It was unbelievably warm for a rough, corpse-handling hand.
It was a strange hand.
“But looking at the battle a little while ago, I thought it might be possible.”
His eyes were half-closed, but his eyes were sharp.
It was like looking into the light.
“The first owner to occupy the assembly.”
“Godfather?”
Then, suddenly, he got down on one knee.
I panicked and tried to get him up, but he wouldn’t budge.
“This old man Morn Dwalski will cede the faction by giving this coven ring to Adrias Cromwell. I declare my full support with him.”
The story, which I thought would end with just giving a half, progressed in an instant and I was distracted.
What is this old man talking about?
Luna, who was next to me, also shouted.
“me too! I’ll help my friend too! I am now a clique of friends!”
“that…The story is too sudden. How should I take this… …. Please wake up at once. I am so embarrassed.”
At my words, Morne laughed softly and stood up again.
Obviously one of my goals was to take over the meetings.
However, I was planning to use the information of the future to erode it step by step, but I did not know that it would develop so quickly.
And absorbing Morne’s faction wasn’t a good thing either.
In the first place, what did the people in his faction believe in following me?
Even if Morne declared his support, there would be a big backlash. In addition to that, it is only natural that other factions will check my sudden growth.
‘Although Aika invited me to join the clique… …. They look like enemies right away.’
I saw the ring in my hand.
The ring marked ‘2’ indicated that this was the second of ten rings.
“There is no point in refusing. As you know, I am also of my age, so the time to remain active is not that long. It would be much better to quickly create a successor and provide support from behind.”
Perhaps noticing my complex thoughts, he said with a playful laugh.
It was like looking at a grandson who was in trouble after receiving an oversized gift.
“Even this old man is not acting without thinking. Adrias Cromwell I decided to dedicate myself to seeing your abilities and talents.”
I looked at Morn and Luna in silence for a moment, looked at the ring again, and nodded.
“I will accept it.”
“Good idea.”
“I was thinking of having a meeting anyway. Even when I didn’t know this ring existed.”
“haha! Also the barrel is big. I picked the right people.”
okay. Now that this has happened, you should use it properly.
If it was Morne and Luna, it was also a pretty great power.
The strongest Necromancer and Warlock class buffer in existence.
In terms of combination, it is almost invincible.
‘If the Necromancer buff worked on the undead, it would have been worth aiming for world domination.’
Thinking nonsense, I gave the ring to Nickel.
It’s burdensome for me to carry around, so it’s better to give it to a nickel that can enter the subspace.
Nickel’s hands were already fitted with two rally rings.
Unexpectedly, a one-fifth ring came into my hand.
“Is the story over?”
When I said I couldn’t hear the hammering, Trawler was coming.
He still had the white Galaksur in his hand, but fortunately it was intact.
“I saw that he was quite embarrassed. It is all the more surprising to know that the old man is not the kind of person who would make such a decision arbitrarily.”
“If you listened, you would understand the situation roughly. So, hurry up and make me a weapon.”
“For a moment, about this sword….”
Trawler returned Galaksur to me.
Then he said.
“The seal surrounding this sword cannot be undone by human power. However, I was able to confirm one clue.”
“proviso?”
“Okay clues.”
Trawler raised an eyebrow confidently.
“It’s a clue to unlocking the seal.”
