Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 354. Villain? ]

Vivian returned to her office and saw Adrias and Minus talking. We were talking about future plans and things so far, but when I suddenly turned my gaze, I saw a red knight sitting blankly.

“What are you?”

[“……Already said, but I don’t know. I met Adrias Cromwell to find out the answer.

” And seeing the red knight like that, Vivian felt a strange sense of kinship.

It seemed that the red knight in front of him was feeling the confusion of identity he once felt.

“What do you want to do?”

[“I don’t know.”]

At that point, after the conversation, Adrias walked over and intervened in the conversation.

“First, we have to decide on a name. It’s like you’ve just been born.”

“Are you just born?”

Vivian looked at the red knight with a slightly surprised expression. However, the red knight nodded obediently at Adrias’s words.

[“Name……”]

“Do you want to be called Red Knight?”

[“No.”]

The red knight shook his head slowly.

Then he looked up and saw Adrias.

[“How do I name myself?”]

“Hmm…”

Adrias also tilted his head vaguely, unable to give a definite answer to this question.

When Vivian saw Adrias worried, she said something.

“It is not an easy decision to make.”

“I see. Then, let’s think about it without rushing to decide.”

Having said that, Adrias asked the red knight.

“Where are you planning to stay?”

[“Is there a place that will accept me?”]

It was a question asked purely out of curiosity, without any emotion, but that’s why it sounded even more vague.

“You know, it’s dangerous here.”

Minus, who was listening to the story, spoke without taking his eyes off the paper.

“The war of attrition is almost over and now the real fight will begin. The superintendents will come. When that time comes, I will also put in the superhumans I brought in from here and there. What would superhumans think if they saw him in that situation?”

superman.

The enemy knight thought carefully.

[“What is superhuman?”]

“They are strong beyond the human category. Wizards are those who created the original magic, and warriors are those who have realized the aura.”

[“Original magic……Aura secret……”]

Then she suddenly raised her head and looked at Adrias.

[“Are you a superman too?”]

“Sure! Adrias is the first superhuman in history to realize both Original Magic and Aura Secret.”

When Minus answered with an excited expression on his behalf, the red knight nodded with an approving expression.

[“It’s only natural that you killed the white knight in one shot.”]

The red knight paused for a while before speaking to Adrias.

[“Can you take me?”]

“Can I take you?”

[“It seems that you are the only one. If it were you, wouldn’t you be able to keep me by your side without being afraid?”]

Adrias made a completely unexpected expression, but quickly regained his cool.

[“I will help you as much as you do my favor.”]

“Can you give me some time to think?”

[“Yes.”]

Adrias thought for a moment about the unexpected development.

‘Originally, the black knight is stronger than the red knight. But I caught the black knight alone without any injuries.’

In many ways, this red knight had many peculiarities.

As much as that, there were personal questions and questions about how much power it had.

“Let’s take it.”

Vivian rarely gave her opinion.

Thanks to that, Adrias woke up from his thoughts alone and looked back at Vivian.

“I’ll take care of it.”

“Is it Vivian? no. You don’t have to. I’ll take it.”

[“Am I a hindrance?”]

After hearing the conversation between the two, the red knight asked quietly.

“well. Human beings are usually wary of something different from themselves. Even if you look the same, if your behavior is a little unusual, you will be rejected.”

[“Even my appearance is different.”]

“That’s right. I don’t think you’re particularly a hindrance. As I said earlier, I am not afraid of you as much as I have power.”

[“Yes.”]

“I was worried about ordinary people. Most people don’t have the same leeway as I do.”

[“I will act unnoticed by ordinary people.”]

Adrias, who suddenly remembered Luna at the red knight’s words, hardened his expression.

The sad images of Luna, who couldn’t play to her heart’s content even though she wanted to go out because of her unusual appearance, flashed through Adrias’ mind and overlapped with the red knight.

[“Why is that? Did I offend you?”]

“No.”

Adrias, who relaxed his expression, spoke to Minus.

“Can we take the red knight then?”

“Do whatever you feel like. And did you say black knight? Get rid of the body on the way too.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

“Receive contact right away. Because the superman I prepared includes you.”

“It’s fine.”

Soon, all of their business in Mohaim was over, and Adrias and his party carefully left the territory.

Adrias, who even took the body of the black knight, looked at the red knight following him.

‘I don’t know how this will turn out later…’

If I could make the red knights on the same side, that wouldn’t be too bad. As one of the 4 knights of the Apocalypse and a powerful boss monster, it was a monster that easily defeated at least one superman.

…….

…… A monster?

Once I thought of Luna, I kept putting myself in love with Luna. Just as I think of the red knight as a monster, do other people think of Luna the same way?

“I’m glad it’s not far.”

The road to Cromwell was smooth.

Arriving safely without incident, we immediately unpacked our luggage and called the people.

“I heard about it in advance, but…”

Morhaime contacted her first, so there was no surprise, but Amy still looked suspicious.

“You are fearless.”

Seeing her proudly looking at the red knight in front of her, I could definitely feel that she was my younger sister.

“You brought something interesting. Give it here.”

“It is not a toy. And please bear with me because I brought a present for you.”

Blocking Salem’s nonsense and looking around, it seemed that all the important people in the estate had gathered except for the Maximin couple.

“okay? I’m looking forward to it.”

“Please introduce yourself.”

As if trying to block unnecessary words, Morne stepped in. I showed gratitude and pointed at the red knight next to me.

“I don’t know how long I will be with you, but I will be with you for a while. I don’t have a name yet.”

“You don’t have a name?!”

Luna looked at the red knight with pity.

“yes. I still have to name it…”

“I! I’ll do it!”

Luna vigorously raised her hand and shouted.

I was anxious to see her like that, but I decided to keep an eye on her.

……Wouldn’t it be a strange name?

“Jerome Dracul!”

Luna, who shouted with a serious and solemn expression as if making a declaration, immediately asked the red knight with her eyes shining.

“how is it?”

[“Jerome Dracul.”] I

was honestly surprised by the name, which was better than I expected.

To be honest, it didn’t sound too bad.

[“Is Jerome my name?”]

“Yes!”

[“Jerome, I am now Jerome Dracul.”]

The appearance of the two reminded me of a master and a knight having a knight ordination ceremony. Maybe Luna could take good care of Jerome.

“You brought a funny kid.”

Isabelle, who appeared out of nowhere at the moment, smiled and spoke to me. It was still a monstrous skill.

[“Superman?”]

“Did you say this to me, sweetheart?”

[“Am I a baby?”]

Seeing the conflicting conversation, I introduced Isabelle to the red knight Jerome.

“My name is Jerome, whom Luna just named. It doesn’t look like a human, but I decided to take charge of it for a while.”

“Hmm…… Why did you do that?”

“yes?”

“Why did you dare to bring this child?”

As I was momentarily speechless at the unexpected question, Vivian, who was next to me, stepped forward.

“I asked to bring it.”

“hmm? Why did you do that?”

“…because he resembles me.”

Vivian said shyly, as if confessing.

I didn’t know what she was thinking, but it was surprising.

‘Coming to think of it, Vivian was also a villain.’

No, most of the people by my side were villains in the first place. It’s hard to find someone who isn’t a villain.

“Is that why you brought it?”

“It’s not just about that. I brought it because I thought it might be helpful because it is strong.”

To tell the truth, I was confused by the atmosphere that seemed like I was going to get into trouble. It was a little too much to say the weak words that he had compassion because he remembered Luna.

[“!!”]

At that moment, Jerome gave off a strong air wave and stepped back. At the same time, the person who arrived last opened the door and sneaked in.

“…….”

“Are you here?”

It was Maximin Cronell.

Jerome showed anxious gestures without taking his eyes off Maximin.

“What is this again?”

“I picked it up.”

“If you pick up something strange, it only makes you tired.”

Maximin said as if giving advice and asked Jerome.

“name is?”

[“Jerome Dracul.”]

“That’s a childish name.”

“what!?”

Luna jumped up and down at Maximin’s words, but Maximin stood in front of the door again after examining everyone’s face as if he had finished his business.

“Adrias. The promised Rastilia plant is still waiting.”

“I’ll get it right away.”

rattle!

Seeing Maximin disappear without saying anything, Salem laughed.

“Anyway, cheaply. Hehe. What do you think you’re doing looking at you?”

“Where do you say there is someone as polite as me?”

Anyway, this is the end of Jerome’s introduction.

It was intended to be introduced in advance so that everyone would not be surprised as the appearance was unusual, but everyone seemed to have no objection.

“Is Jerome a baby?”

[“Am I a baby?”]

Seeing Luna and Dumb and Dumber having a conversation, it seemed like she would adapt well…….

After finishing their business, everyone left.

At that time, Isabelle, who had not left her seat until the end, came up to me and said.

“You’d better be careful.”

“You mean Jerome?”

“no. You know I didn’t say that.”

“……I guess I’m a human too. Even though I knew it could be a seed of discord, I couldn’t just ignore it.”

Bringing Jerome had a lot of anxiety factors in many ways. Someone who found him right away could spread rumors and spread bad rumors about Cromwell, and superhumans could flock to him in the name of subjugating Jerome.

“But that’s why everyone trusts you and wants to support you. The same goes for me and Maximin.”

“Am I going to regret this choice?”

“We are here with you to make sure that doesn’t happen. Sometimes you even lean on us. Don’t try to shoulder everything by yourself.”

I couldn’t nod my head.

Knowing that I can’t solve the world’s problems alone, I’ve always cared about playable characters, but I’ve always tried to solve everything by myself.

‘Can’t lose.’

I was greedy.

I thought I had overcome the precious comrades I had lost in my previous life, but I couldn’t stay still for a moment because I was worried that something like that might happen again.

“Poor man.”

Isabelle said that, then went up to Vivian next to her and said.

“Please take good care of me. Even if I don’t tell you, you’re already doing well.”

“huh.”

Isabelle left the room with those words.

After she left, only Vivian and I were left in the room. Jerome had taken Luna to introduce her to the inside of the castle.

“Would you like to get some rest, Adrias?”

“Is that so? Oh Vivian. If you have any training at the gymnasium, please tell Louis about Jerome.”

“okay.”

The only remaining Knight of the Apocalypse was the Blue Knight of Death. In fact, the apocalypse itself was blocked, so there was no big concern.

‘It’s almost over until the ending.’

The meeting is now almost mine, so ‘jealousy’, a hidden sin within the meeting, will soon come into hand.

The remaining sins are now lust, gluttony, and arrogance, but the location of lust and gluttony was already known.

The destruction-level episode of the North was prevented in advance thanks to the northerners being saved, and another destruction-level episode, the fallen world capital of Rastilia, was prevented.

‘I killed Zefar’s incarnation before he could grow.’

It really felt like I had done everything I could do at that time.

The remaining destruction-level episodes were actually demons summoned by the assembly, and that would be nothing if I collected all the sins.

“Let’s rest.”

At that time, I was startled by the feeling of my back slowly wrapping around me, and when I looked to the side, Vivian was hugging me with a nonchalant face but with blushing cheeks.

“I can hear the head rolling from here.”

“sorry. I decided to rest.”

When I thought that the ending was approaching in terms of the game story, I became a little sensitive and my head was complicated.

Progress was much faster than expected, and thanks to that, there was no room for other playables to grow.

‘Although it’s also because I destroyed all the trials that allowed me to grow.’

Cock!

“Adrias.”

“sorry.”

Shall we rest a little?

I’m going to put everything aside for now and enjoy this brief happiness.
