Boundless Necromancer Chapter 82

082. Dimensional Invasion (1)

Originally, when I first heard of the wish, I thought it was simply some kind of wish.

Just as I desperately wanted to acquire the ability to slaughter monsters before entering the tower.

It was because he thought that the Sangvis lord and the other administrators were all dead once, so there would be a sloppy relationship made up of favors.

I wondered if the resentment that I couldn’t achieve in my life or that I kept deeply was a secret wish.

But that wasn’t it.

“…Are you saying that your earnest wish is not just a manager’s wish, but an ordeal?”

“To be precise, making a secret circle does not mean climbing the tower, but to some extent it is.”

“….”

“The tower provides rewards to the manager and the challenger when the secret wish is fulfilled.”

“In short, it’s an ordeal in which the floor doesn’t go up even if you break through.”

After learning the truth of the iron-blooded lord’s longing, a sense of desolation came over me.

Aside from the fact that it was an ordeal in the form of an administrator embodying the ordeal of the tower.

Why did he call something that was barely different from the ordeal of the tower his own wish?

Curiosity about him rose to the throat, and soon I opened my mouth to ask.

“To be honest, I can’t see it as a manager’s wish, so why do you call it a secret wish?”

I wondered if it would be better to clearly state that it was a derivative of the ordeal.

However, Baekhak Geomseon shook his head and denied what I said.

“no. A secret wish should be called a secret wish. It’s worth it.”

“…?”

“Do you know why the administrator was subordinate to the tower even after he died once?”

“It must be because I don’t want to die. No one wants to die.”

“There must be a manager like that. However, we are not subordinated to the Tower because we are afraid of death.”

Baekhak Swordsman’s eyes become infinitely serious as if sinking into the abyss.

“We have a wish that must come true no matter what.”

“…”

“The secret wish is a way to achieve it through an apostle on behalf of.”

“But you said that the longing was an ordeal. Then it wouldn’t make any sense.”

“Why do you think so?”

“That’s right, trials are the growth stage prepared by the tower for challengers.”

Trials exist just to grow challengers.

Literally, it’s about putting down trials and becoming stronger when you endure them.

I didn’t think that overcoming the ordeal would solve something stuck in the manager’s heart.

“I don’t think I’ve seen anything that can fulfill the administrator’s long-cherished wish among the trials I’ve seen so far.”

“…You are correct. that’s right. An ordeal is just a ‘reproduction’ of a situation, and it’s just a stage for the challenger’s growth.”

“Then it doesn’t make any sense…”

“But there is value in achieving that recreated situation.”

“…?”

Baekhak Geomseon looked at me blankly and spoke slowly.

“Most of the managers’ longings stem from past regrets.”

“…”

“There may be some that are not, but most of them are. However, it is impossible for anyone to change the story that has passed over time.”

“I guess so. Unless you become a god.”

“But if you can fulfill your longing, it is possible to change the past. It’s about intervening in my past in the form of an ordeal and making a difference.”

“…yes?”

At the story of Baekhak Geomseon that followed, I stared blankly at her and blinked my eyes.

can you change the past?

“Such nonsense could be possible…”

“You should know since you have been through the trials of the Tower up until now. Whether my words are true or not.”

It was as it was said.

The Tower of Trials had out-of-standard abilities and brought more serious changes than past cataclysms.

So, originally, after a miserable failure, I couldn’t become a hunter and had to give up my dream, but I’ve come this far.

It wouldn’t be strange if the ability to change the past existed.

“I don’t know about other managers, but I want to change my past.”

Baekhakgeomseon spoke in a gloomy tone that did not suit him.

“But fulfilling your wish doesn’t mean that the past will change right away.”

“…?”

“Conditions are added depending on how serious the manager’s wish is.”

“Then, it must be the challenger for the apostolate to fulfill that condition.”

If the manager could solve the condition attached to the back, there would be no restriction to solve the secret wish through the apostle.

‘It must be tricky since the challenger must meet the conditions.’

And Baekhakgeomseon agreed right away as if what I said was right.

“that’s right. A challenger with the position of an apostle must fulfill the conditions on behalf of the manager.”

As expected, it was a system in which the challenger, not the manager, had to complete the additional conditions.

“There are basically two conditions that a challenger must meet.”

Baekhakgeomseon slowly opened his index finger and said.

“First, the number of floors to climb is basically entered as a condition.”

Then, she spread her middle finger out, showing two fingers and continuing.

“Secondly, when you go beyond the 20th floor, the difficulty of all individual trials is increased.”

At those words, I felt my body stiffen and opened my mouth.

“…Can I ask you one question?”

Changes in the past are no different from miracles that defy the order of time.

That would mean the number of floors to climb, as well as all personal trials after the 20th floor would be ridiculously intensified.

Then, how many times must I repeat that crazy ordeal to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the White Crane Swordsman?

It was embarrassing to have that question all the time, so I decided to ask the question right away.

“How far do I have to go to grant your wish?”

Baekhak Geomseon smiled wryly at the question, then scratched his cheek and turned away as if avoiding his gaze.

“That… wouldn’t it be enough to go to the waiting room on the final floor of the Tower of Trials?”

***

The final layer.

I knew that the top of the tower was the goal I had to reach in order to turn the administrator’s earnest wish into reality, but… To

talk about it, leaving only the result, in the end I couldn’t refuse Baekhak Geomseon’s proposal and accepted her proposal. did.

“The contract has been concluded.”

“Good choice! You will definitely not regret it!”

At the same time as the system message informed me that I had become a contractor for Baekhakgeomseon…

She smiled brightly and shook my right hand with both hands.

“…”

It was not a bad sight to see because she was so short that it felt like a lie that she once challenged for the tower as a challenger.

However, even though it was a choice made for growth, hearing that it was the final floor made my shoulders feel heavy.

Anyway, it didn’t change that I was given the responsibility of going up to the final floor.

of course-.

「Recognized as a true disciple of the manager, ‘Baekhak Geomseon(白鶴劍仙)’.」 「By the

perk of the disciple, the power and skill efficiency of the Moorim dimension increases by 10%.」 「The perk of the disciple increases

magical power by +3. It rises.”

“Current challenger Han Seong-yoon has been recognized as an apostle by two administrators.” “

Double Apostle’s perk increases Agility by +3.

” I guess.”

Even so, too many rewards have been awarded to me to harbor any regrets about this contract.

Unlike the iron-blooded lord, he wasn’t the first contractor at all, so only his magic power increased by +3.

The effect of increasing the power and skill efficiency of the Moorim dimension by 10% as an apostle perk could not be underestimated.

Even if it wasn’t so, it was a more powerful sword skill that reached the level of unifying the body and sword.

However, a 10% increase in the efficiency of sword skills was tantamount to an increase in military power.

And that wasn’t all.

Did the Tower appreciate the fact that he was designated as an apostle by two administrators?

When the message that even the agility stat increased by +3 was printed, there was no regret left.

“I’m glad you don’t think you will regret it.”

Baekhakgeomseon smiled innocently and then waved goodbye.

“I’ll be looking forward to the trials on the 11th floor.”

Before I could say anything, the scenery around me changed.

「Move to the waiting room on the 11th floor.」

Instead of the peaceful atmosphere of the forest, they returned to the desolate waiting room.

“….”

In many ways, since the additional contracts were finished, I felt like I wanted to stay like this, but…

I suppressed my tiredness and immediately opened a shop exclusively for contractors.

「Contractor Exclusive Store」

「SP-4000」

「Category: Skill」

「Category: Authority」

「Category: Goods」

「Contractor: Iron-Blooded Lord and White Crane Swordsman」

「Remarks: Administrator: The first contractor and manager of ‘Iron-Blooded Lord” I am the apostle of the White Crane Swordsman.」

I was able to check the changes right away.

In addition to the 4000 SP obtained by breaking through the 10th floor trials, the white crane inspection was added separately to the description of the contractor and remarks.

To be honest, I wanted to be more sentimental about having grown this much, but my body moved mechanically.

[Category: Authority]

This was the moment when the authority list was called by pressing the authority category.

「Select the authority list to view.」

「1. Iron-Blooded Lord”

「2. White crane inspection”

“3. Sponsored Powers”

“…Are you saying that the list of Powers has grown enough to be classified in earnest now?”

Previously, the authority list was not categorized, but now we have clearly separated the authority list for each manager.

Even if it wasn’t so, I thought it would be annoying to check if the authority list was mixed up, but it was a good change.

「I have selected ‘White Crane Swordsman’ from the list of powers.”

「Category: Authority (White Crane Swordsman)」

「List (1/3)」

「Boss Powers: Combine Powers (A-)」

「Boss Powers: Desire to Fight (A+)

」 : Sword Demon’s Path (S)”

I laughed out loud as I saw that from the beginning to the S-class powers were specified in the list.

I was really sure that the choice I made was the path that would lead me to the final floor of the tower.

「(!) Currently, only the list (1/3) of the authority you can view.」

「(!) You can view the authority list (2/3) from the waiting room on the 20th floor.」

Of course, the second authority page is not open yet, just like Iron Blooded Lord was.

As always, everything was never open, so I looked at the powers that were silent.

「Boss Power: Power Integration (A-)」

「Price: 5000 SP」

「Description: This power embodies the footsteps of Baekhak Swordsman, a challenger who synthesized every skill for selection and concentration. You can develop a new authority by integrating the authority you are learning, or you can raise the level of an existing authority by consuming the authority itself.」 Starting with

the ability that doesn’t matter if you look at it as an authority version of skill synthesis.

「Boss Power: Craving for Battle (A+)」

「Price: 7500 SP」

「Description: Craving for battle is the origin of species that started from predators. It is a power often gained by those who see only struggle as their life. When fighting an opponent stronger than you, the rate of increase in all skill proficiency increases by up to 300%, making it easier to feel joy in battle.”

Looking at the powers in the form of growth support that made no sense at all.

「Authority: Sword Demon’s Path (S)」

「Price: 10000 SP」

「Description: It is an Authority that sword wielders often get from among those who fall into contradiction, becoming stronger to live and then living to become stronger. Regarding the sword, you can develop your own skills, and it will be easier to embody your own

enlightenment. 」

All the powers were excellent enough to stick out my tongue, but there was nothing I could live for.

‘The white crane swordsman’s authority has a high minimum requirement.’

Since I did not have the right to purchase it right away, I had no choice but to feel that it was a piece of cake.

However, these powers are abilities that will eventually be acquired after passing through a few more trials.

Instead of feeling disappointed, I immediately changed the power list and entered the sponsor power.

「Boss Power: Wings of Steel (C+)」

「Price: 1500 SP」

「Description: An authority to create wings of steel with magical power. High-speed flight is possible through the steel wings generated by magic. At this time, to maintain the wings, you must constantly inject magic power, and when the magic power is insufficient, the wings are automatically released

. It was for buying.

I thought I could buy the power of the iron blooded lord, but I didn’t.

‘First of all, I have to choose a power that allows me to suck honey without using SP as much as possible.’

Indeed, as a manager from the Moorim dimension, all of Baekhak Geomseon’s powers were great.

That’s why it would be better to save SP as much as possible and buy at least one of her powers even after breaking through the ordeal on the 11th floor.

Once the conclusion was reached, there was nothing to hesitate about.

「I purchased ‘Power: Wings of Steel (C+)’」

「1500 SP will be deducted.」

I immediately decided to purchase Steel Wings and at the same time check the exact ability of this power.

“Wings of steel.”

That was the moment.

「Boss power ‘Steel Wings’ is activated.」

Chew!

I felt something sharp rise from my back, and then a new sensation developed in my back.

“…!?”

It was the feeling of the wings on my back.

I was taken aback by that, and I reached out and touched the back of my back, and immediately felt wings rising.

Even the skin and steel wings were naturally connected.

“Huh, I never thought it would be completely connected to the back.”

Since it was an authority sponsored by the manager of the tower, I wondered if it was composed of magical principles.

There’s nothing like that, it’s just a cannibal that can fly by putting magical energy into the wings protruding from its back.

Right after injecting mana into the steel wings and shaking them, the body immediately floated into the air.

“…”

Surprisingly, it was easy to float in the air, and since it flew by magic, it didn’t need to flap its wings that much.

I wanted to see how much I could fly and move faster, but the space in the waiting room was too small for that.

“It can’t be helped.”

In the end, I had no choice but to descend to the ground with my steel wings deactivated.

「The authority ‘Wings of Steel’ is deactivated.」

Here, it is difficult to see the true ability of the Wings of Steel.

“Then we have to change the stage.”

I immediately opened the shop window and bought the same lowest grade hearthstone as before.

「You have purchased the Returning Stone (F+).」

The ordeal has been overcome more than originally assumed, and the additional contract with the manager has been completed.

So…

now is the time to be active on Earth, not the Tower.
