Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 395. The traces of the world tree and the founder of innocence]

Njord, who was listening to my will, clicked his tongue.

“You are talking nonsense.”

Then he looked at the board with a pitiful look.

“prophet? Do you know that prophets are so common?”

“……I thought so too.”

Pan looked awkwardly and said.

However, as soon as he felt upset, he turned his head and looked at Njord.

“Couldn’t it be the Prophet?”

“Stop talking nonsense.”

Njord moved as if he would not wait any longer.

“I will not stop you from going to Shaiya. But taking my daughter is another matter.”

[“You don’t have to tell me straight to understand. It doesn’t matter anyway. Because I took as much time as I wanted.”]

“What?”

Kwaaang!

With the sound of a table crashing, Thor stood up from his seat, his face flushed red.

“Ughhh. I was going to get drunk and fall asleep, but I thought it would be so noisy.”

Lightning began to crackle around Thor.

Njord looked at Pan with a puzzled face, but Pan had long since disappeared somewhere.

“Are you here to interrupt our adventure in Njord?”

“Thor, I want my daughter back.”

Njord took a polite stance and said to Thor. Then Thor saw Freyr screaming loudly from the side and pulled him up by the scruff of his neck.

“You mean this clown? Ughhh.”

“Yes, that child is my daughter.”

“Are you my clown now?”

Thor tilted his head and soon sang along with Freyr. Freyr was singing frantically even while hanging from Thor’s hands.

“Thor! It’s dangerous to go to Shaiya like this!”

“Hahahaha! Originally, all adventures come with risks! You have to overcome such an ordeal to become a hero in the end!”

“Thor!”

Njord’s complexion turned white. His subordinates watched him and just looked around with faces that did not know what to do.

“Hmm?”

At that time, Ilias, who had fallen asleep on the table, woke up. Then he looked around and opened his eyes wide.

“Why is Ilias sleeping…?”

“Oh, you’re awake.”

Nebro greeted Ilias and said. It was as if Pan had run away and his powers were gone.

Green Narae and Freyr still sang and flew in the air as if they were drunk, but they didn’t worry too much. I just wish Thor would have calmed down.

‘Though it still seems to be a bit of a nuisance.’

It was judged that a god with the strength of Thor would be able to demonstrate his power no matter how strong this place was.

I had the confidence to convince the plate.

“A little while ago, our clown told me an interesting story. Your will matters! That’s right!”

Thor put Freyr down. Then he raised his finger and ran a weak electricity through her forehead.

Dismissed!

“Ugh!”

Freyr covered his forehead with a sparkling expression. Then, with a frown on his face, he lifted his head and looked around, then opened his mouth wide.

“father?”

“Are you out of your mind?”

Njord made a bitter expression. Freyr looked at the other party with a face that didn’t know how this happened.

“What happened? Why is my father here…”

“Nord set a trap here! hahaha! It’s an outrageous thing to do!”

It was Thor who answered. At his words, Freyr looked at Njord with an expression of incomprehension.

“Father?”

“Let’s go back to Freyr Rastilia. I will not hold you guilty for coming out without permission.”

“…….”

Come to think of it, he also said that he had run away. Come to think of it, I ran away and did something absurd.

“Father, I promised. I will take Nyx’s shaman and Galaksur to Shaiya safely.”

“Don’t be immature.”

Njord scolded Freyr with a firm tone.

“You don’t know what lurks there.”

“……Are you saying arrival isn’t the end?”

Njord did not answer Freyr’s question. Instead, he looked at Thor and said.

“I’m saying this because I’ve already lost my left arm, but no matter how you are, you will die if you enter Shaiya.”

“Are you worried about me, Njord? Thank you for bringing me to tears. Hahahaha!”

Seeing him say that, it certainly makes Shaiya feel dangerous. In fact, even Thor lost his left arm in a previous battle. Although Nebro brought it, wondering if it could be done, but there was no way to fix it right away.

“okay. Although we were once enemies, now nesting in the same nest. To be honest, if it weren’t for my daughter, I would have ignored whatever you did, but I have no intention of putting you to death until now.”

“Tell me then.”

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Thor asked Njord with a serious face unlike before.

“Who is in Shayah?”

“……Not just one or two. It must have come from all sorts of factions. Galaksurda was the first completed Galaksur after the creation of this continent. It’s not common for all the gods’ powers to come together.”

Thor, who was stiff at Njord’s words, smiled broadly as if it were a lie.

“Good!”

“What do you like!”

“Isn’t it the story that if you beat them all to death, you can become a hero in the end? Ha ha ha ha!”

At Thor’s way of thinking, Njord stared blankly at him with an expression that he was at a loss for words.

“I could die. No, I will die.”

“Nord.”

Thor grinned.

“Do you think I would be afraid of death?”

“……At least save my daughter.”

At Njord’s earnest words, Thor’s gaze turned to Freyr. Freyr’s expression didn’t look good, as if he realized the danger through Njord’s words.

“Freyr.”

At that time, Ilias, who was observing the situation, called her name in a low voice.

“Huh huh?”

“Even Ilias has never experienced this. You don’t know what dangers await.”

Ilias slowly approached her and took her hand. Freyr’s eyes were stained with bewilderment at Ilias’ sudden action.

“You can leave.”

“I am…….”

“The reason Ilias kept repeating was to save everyone. The need for Freyr has passed, so it’s okay to go back now.”

Ilias smiled for the first time. Then, he slowly stroked Freyr’s head.

“You worked hard, Freyr.”

“I didn’t say I was missing out.”

“It has no meaning if Freyr dies. Ilias will repeat it again, even to save Freyr. do you want that?”

At Ilias’ menacing words, Freyr looked at Nebro as if seeking help. But what do you want from Nebro?

“Ummm…”

Nebro looked at them with a troubled face. Nebro, indecisive, will not be able to decide on such a thing.

In the first place, the decision was not made by Nebro, but by Freyr.

[“Freyr, you are weak.”]

Shall I help you?

“what?”

[“It is literally. If Njord says that, you’ll die without even using your hands.”]

“You…….”

The subject that used to be called an angel is now called you. It doesn’t really matter, but it must have hurt my pride.

[“Didn’t you feel it too? I think you said it yourself.”]

“That is a different matter. It’s up to you to take responsibility…”

[“If everything goes wrong because of you, isn’t it your fault?”]

Freyr’s expression hardened at my sharp words. Nebro listened to the conversation between me and Freyr and made anxious gestures, but eventually stopped me.

“Hey angel. Freyr was a great colleague.”

[“that’s right. Without Freyr, there wouldn’t be you, and the trip would have been inconvenient. But, as Freyr said, that and this are different matters.”]

“Right.”

Freyr intervened. Nebro, who was defending her, looked at her with a bewildered face.

“It must be a different matter than anything that has helped you in the past.”

At first glance, she looked shabby as she admitted bitterly. I didn’t feel good either, but I had to be cold in my judgment in carrying out my mission.

In a situation where it was unknown whether Nebro would be of any help right now, having Freyr together could be a burden.

‘Perhaps Freyr doesn’t want that situation either.’

Rather, she would be more intolerant of such a situation. So here…….

[“Go back to what I taught you and practice diligently. There won’t be any compensation from Northern Guro.”]

“Training…….”

Freyr nodded with a helpless expression. Ilias, as if feeling sorry for him, raised his tiptoe again and stroked Freyr’s head.

“Thank you Freyr. When it’s over safely, I’ll definitely go to Rastilia to meet you.”

“……okay.”

Eventually, she admitted to giving up.

Probably because of his personality he didn’t want to admit it. But rather, because of that personality, I can think rationally.

Freyr held Ilias’ hand once, as if feeling sick to his stomach, and left the tavern.

“Freyr…….”

[“This is not the time to worry about Freyr. You should worry too.”]

“Yes?”

[“Do you think you can be of any help?”]

Upon hearing my will, Nebro showed a surprised face as if he hadn’t even thought about it. However, the focus soon became blurred as if he was seriously thinking about my question.

“One of the clowns got out. It’s a pity.”

Thor, who had been watching quietly, grinned.

“But you will be useful, clown with eggs. So don’t worry and follow me!”

“A clown with an egg? Me?”

“okay!”

Are you looking at me and calling me Al?

I don’t care what you call it. The important thing is whether Nebro follows Shaiya or not.

“I…”

Nebro looked at Ilias. Then Ilias shrugged.

“Ilias thinks it might be better to go alone with Thor.”

“Ugh…….”

Nebro stumbled for a moment at Ilias’s words, but then he seemed to think deeply and passed the baton to me.

“What do you think, angel?”

Shay.

I had a vague idea that perhaps the key to my return might be there.

But that wasn’t even accurate. Because it’s just a guess.

[“Your choice is my choice.”]

“Umm……”

[“Don’t be afraid.”]

What will happen to me if Nebro dies.

Why am I here in the first place? I absolutely had to go back. It’s for the people who are waiting for me.

Don’t be afraid.

This wasn’t just something I said to Nebro, it was something I said to myself as well.

“I will go.”

“It would be nice if Ilias and Nebro also parted here…”

“Don’t worry.”

At the words of Ilias, Nebro made a strong argument for himself for the first time.

“I will keep getting stronger. Even after arriving at Shaiya, no matter what kind of crisis I face there, I will not die and will continue to grow stronger.”

“Hahahaha! yes! You guys will keep getting stronger! Unless you die! Hahahaha!”

Thor nodded and laughed. As the conversation seemed to come to an end, Njord lowered his head slightly.

“Please wish me no luck.”

“My epic will spread across the continent! Look forward to it, Njord! Hahahaha!”

Soon, Njord left the tavern with his men.

“Shall we start right away? You have been resting for quite some time!”

“huh.”

“yes!”

Ilias embraced Green Narae, who was still wandering around, and we followed and left the tavern.

**

“Are you offended?”

“I would be lying if I said no.”

Freyr, who had said his last goodbyes with his party, nodded his head with a bitter face.

“We couldn’t have guessed that you were running away and doing this. Do you know how surprised I was when I heard the news?”

“It was a good experience.”

“Being alive is a good experience. It is of no use if you lose your life.”

Despite Njord’s nagging, Freyr just watched the backs of the party walking away.

“…… I’m angry.”

“…….”

“I want to become stronger too.”

Freyr suddenly remembered what the angel had said. The words that told me to go back and practice at least.

“father.”

“Tell me.”

“When I go back, I want to practice in a ‘space where time is distorted’.”

Njord frowned at Freyr’s words.

“What are you going to do after you have an accident?”

“I want to be strong. I don’t want to be anyone’s burden anymore.”

At Freyr’s earnest words, Njord finally let out a sigh.

“You mean the place located in the World Tree, right?”

“There’s nothing else I’ve said.”

“A day there is a minute here. Besides, if you go in, you have no choice but to come out yourself. We can’t help.”

The World Tree of Rastilia was another world.

Inside the World Tree, where all kinds of strange places are inherent, there were also places designated as forbidden areas.

The place Freyr was talking about was also one of the forbidden areas, and it was a strange space where the flow of time flowed differently.

“We use it as a prison. A place of further punishment for elves who live a long time.”

“Instead of that, I can buy myself some time.”

Freyr intended to come out after completely mastering the integrity that the angel had taught him. As long as it was a swordsman taught by a transcendentalist, he was confident that he could escape if he mastered it.

Although you can’t become strong in an instant like Nebro, if you don’t, you will become stronger with the power of the World Tree.

“It will be a training ground for me, not a prison.”

Freyr’s eyes were full of intense desire.
