Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 315. Confusion that has already begun]

For a while, I was enveloped in silence.

However, it was only a moment before Minus opened his mouth again.

“The emperor sent me a letter.”

I listened silently.

“I asked for 40% of the family’s property and 70% of the troops because there will soon be a war with the Confederation of Southern Kingdoms. Even if I asked for one of them, I asked for both at the point where people would say I was crazy.”

Minus smiled fiercely.

“It’s a one-time thing. This is it. Hehe.”

“You seem to be fighting for conditions and reasons that are more absurd than I thought.”

“Whatever the reason, our family cannot accept such conditions. The moment you accept that letter, you will become an idiot. Rather, thanks to that unreasonable demand, I had a reason to convince other families in the West.”

A crunching sound came from Minus’ fist.

“It’s a little earlier than expected, but it’s a war.”

“The Empire is strong.”

“okay. that’s what you said So, I prepared quite a bit.”

He seemed to be really confident with a relaxed smile.

“More than that, even the emperor must have already known that the letter he sent was an outrageous request. Perhaps calling you in a hurry was part of the imperial palace’s plan.”

“I already know that there is something hidden in the emperor who summoned me. But you can’t go against the emperor without reason.”

“If you go, you will surely die. Do you think I’ve been pretending to be close to you? You’ve already been on the same boat as me and advertised in the neighborhood.”

It seems my initial predictions were correct.

The Emperor was now preparing to proceed with the mayhem episode.

And if the letter I sent to Minus is true, then my summoning to the imperial palace must be as Minus guessed.

“it’s okay.”

“What is okay? Will you die if you go?”

“I am not dying.”

Rumors of the fact that I had already gone to the imperial palace to prove that I was a superhuman would spread quickly through the students at the academy. So no matter how much the emperor was, he couldn’t kill me openly.

“No, you will die unconditionally.”

“His Highness Morhaime.”

I know what Minus is worried about.

Even if they didn’t kill her openly, they would try to kill her in any way they could if they saw her hurriedly called to the imperial palace.

“I’m really fine. So please focus on something other than me.”

“…If you say that, you must have thought about something.”

I nodded quietly and said.

“As for correspondence, delay replying as much as possible to kill time. In the end, instead of replying, he exposing the contents of the letter to the entire empire, earning sympathy.”

“I still think so.”

“Other than that, please check the things I said before.”

After that, I took out a piece of paper from my pocket and wrote down something. After taking notes for a while, I got up from my seat.

“I’ll just go. Sir Xavier will be waiting for you.”

“If you ever get into trouble, come to our family.”

“Has confirmed.”

After saying that, I left the tea house alone.

Then Vivian, who had been waiting for me, approached me.

“I have a request for Vivian.”

“huh.”

“I’m the only one who can enter the imperial palace anyway, so will you follow this memo?”

Receiving the paper I handed her, Vivian didn’t check the contents inside and just looked at me.

“Do not worry. I am fine.”

“huh.”

Only then did Vivian read what was written on the paper.

“This…….”

“This is the way to save me. Right now, the only person I can ask for is Vivian.”

Vivian’s eyes twitched.

After checking all the memos, she glanced at Xavier approaching to urge her, then gritted her teeth.

“……It must have been a trap.”

“Please, Vivian.”

“Is Adrias safe if we just keep going like this?”

“Sure.”

Before I knew it, Xavier came closer.

“Is the story over?”

“yes. Thank you for waiting.”

“egg plant.”

He immediately followed Xavier, who was leading the way. But Vivian moved in a different direction.

“The escort driver?”

“I was the only one who could enter the imperial palace, so I told him to rest nearby.”

Upon hearing my answer, Zabi showed no sign of anything else, and soon caught a wagon.

“To the imperial palace.”

**

The word superhuman was originally used to refer to an Aura Master in the Empire.

‘That’s why I called the event to test the Auror Master a superhuman proof.’

A kind of event that all Aura Masters of the Empire would attend.

‘I thought it was an event in the game, but now it’s turned into a trap trying to kill me.’

The superhuman proof was a test that could only be received by the Imperial Aura Master, and if the proof was successful, one of several benefits could be selected.

The benefit wasn’t light, so I used it quite usefully, but now wasn’t the time to think about that.

“You can enter right away.”

As soon as I arrived at the imperial palace, I was immediately guided to the palace where the emperor was.

Entering Daejeon with Xavier, I walked away hiding my face as much as possible.

slap!

At the end of the Great War, the emperor was sitting, and the famous imperial guards were lined up around him.

“Adrias Cromwell Count Cromwell.”

As I got down on one knee from a distance, the emperor opened his mouth.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“How old are you this year?”

“Twenty-five is coming.”

The atmosphere was odd.

In the first place, the superhuman proof I experienced in the game was held in front of not only the emperor but also various ministers.

“Awesome. Master at that age.”

“It’s an overstatement.”

“Can I demonstrate it now?”

“Yes, it is possible.”

I understood that permission had been given and immediately used the wings.

Hwaaaak–!

A pair of wings were created with dazzling light.

Originally, it was one wing, but as he experienced hell, it was a figure that increased as one.

“haha.”

The emperor showed an interesting gaze, and although it was an unexpected reaction, he made a look of surprise at mercy.

“Is that your aura match?”

“That’s right.”

“I heard there was only one, but now I see there is a pair.”

“They were originally a pair.”

Needless to say I have grown up.

Is this the end of the proof?

In fact, the superhuman proof itself was a kind of event, not a place to determine the authenticity of the Aura secret.

It is customary to show an aura and finish once.

“What do you think, Sir Xavier?”

“I was surprised.”

Is it that surprising? Come to think of it, Xavier came to me and said he wasn’t a Master.

“It’s amazing that he has such a special ability even though it’s not an aura match.”

……what?

“Hmm, that’s right.”

The emperor turned his gaze to me.

“Is that an aura, not magic?”

“…I’m sorry, but I don’t understand what that means. This is absolutely not magic.”

“You might be embarrassed. Jim will kindly explain.”

Tung!

The emperor stamped his mysteriously colored sword on the floor as if to draw attention to it.

“Sir Xavier is an Aura Master. And mimicking a draw in honor of Xavier.”

imitate?

As soon as I heard that, an assumption immediately came to mind.

The reason Xavier was immediately convinced that I was not the Master when he came to see me.

And the reason why I was able to say that it was not a draw even after looking at my wings.

“Sir Xavier is strong and weak. This is because it becomes stronger or weaker depending on the opponent’s aura match.”

Xavier’s Aura Secret.

If you guess what the emperor said, it was definitely using the same opponent’s aura technique.

“Do you need further explanation, Earl Cromwell?”

“I got it.”

So when you saw me, you immediately realized that I was not a Master.

“Now let’s talk about something else.”

Tung!

The emperor drew his sword again.

“It is true that you dare to come and deceive me as a Master. Even if you were an Aura Master anyway, I called you for a different reason.”

Tension enveloped the battle.

The momentum of the guard knights lined up was focused on me in an instant.

“Adrias Cromwell.”

Madness glittered in the emperor’s eyes.

“Where is the original sin?”

**

Sssss-

Black energy secretly crawled on the floor.

It roamed around the manor where people passed by, but no one sensed its strangeness, as if it was invisible.

Soon, the energy headed somewhere and was naturally absorbed by someone.

“Nothing is wrong.”

It was Jester Levan, a uniquely dressed person who absorbed energy.

There were shadows moving secretly around him

.

They were his subordinates belonging to Jester’s faction.

“The time has finally come to avenge the disgrace. Even getting paid for it.”

Jester let out a satisfied laugh.

In his field of vision, a territory that was neither large nor small came into view.

“Cromwell.”

Terror towards the territory of the empire.

It was okay to call it crazy, but Jester had already been promised a price by the imperial palace.

“There is a story that there may be unknown Dwarskis and Luna Pendragons inside the estate, so if you run into them, don’t confront them and back away.”

“yes.”

“They have to hide their identities anyway, so they won’t be able to openly use black magic like we do.”

The existence of Morne and Luna had already been communicated through Pycy.

However, neither of them interfered with the plan.

Rather, the moment one of them used black magic, they could have been accused of being the culprits of this terror.

“Our objective is the destruction of the estate and Adrias Cromwell’s only blood relative, Amy Cromwell.”

Jester, who was talking, pointed to some of his subordinates.

“Amy Cromwell must be captured alive. Because that guy is part of the deal he made with the imperial palace.”

“Okay, Master.”

Those Jester pointed out.

They were none other than prisoners.

Their bodies, which were already superior to humans, were strengthened with black magic, and the seals of slaves were engraved on their bodies.

“For the rest, use only magic from a distance. no matter how many you kill Rather, the more you kill, the better.”

As Jester’s words continued, the atmosphere rose. The destructive instincts of the warlocks, who had been suppressed for so long, began to flow out with madness.

“Now, take your seat. I will cast the first spell.”

After the words were finished, the shadows dispersed.

“Finally, the time has come to use this guy.”

After everyone disappeared, Jester, who was left alone, took something out of his chest.

A black cube in the shape of a regular hexagon.

It was the starting point of all this evil.

“sloth.”

The use of sin required the consent of the other chieftains, but Jester could not stand it.

“Watch as Adrias Cromwell destroys everything you have done through your indolence.”

It was hard to bear when I thought of what I had suffered because of Adrias.

“Salem Yedidiah Heigel Morn Dwalski would have died sooner rather than later without their help.”

But that was over now.

I don’t know why exactly, but the emperor was trying to clean up Cromwell.

He just puts a little spoon on it.

“Before that, let me experience all the despair called despair.”

The sloth in Jester’s hand began to move slowly.

After already finishing the owner’s imprint as a named item.

It was clear what the other factions would say later, but it didn’t matter.

Clap-clack-clack-

The cube began to move with a sound.
