The Barbarian Became a Necromancer

033.

A heavy silence fell in the hall.

It was the man who made the situation this way to unravel the atmosphere.

“It’s a joke, a joke. Still don’t know how to poke to see the reaction?”

“You still don’t realize the weight of words and actions. hero of the wind That’s why the companions who were by your side are leaving together.”

“It’s not that you left, only you don’t know that I threw you out.”

The man who deftly deflected Fenolino’s words.

His appearance is quite peculiar.

Even though it was a meeting room with no wind blowing, her light green hair was floating in the sky.

At first glance, it is an unsightly sight.

Still, to mysteriously sublimate with just one look.

‘He’s filthy handsome.’

I dismissed it as a one-word evaluation and looked at the heroes.

“Delat. Are you the hero who did a great job in destroying the fragments this time?”

“hahahaha! It’s an expensive body that brought us all together.”

Delart gently pushed my back.

The one who showed curiosity about me was an old man.

Even heroes get weaker and retire when they get older.

Nonetheless, he remained active and was a legend of the empire.

‘Immortal hero.’

I approached him and said hello.

“High-ranking warrior Lokram greets the immortal hero, Amor Fin Rondo.”

“I heard about it. Even though they were born differently, they did a great job for the empire. Head up and sit here.”

His expression is solemn, but his tone and actions are warm.

He even pulled out a chair and pointed to the seat next to him.

I sat there without hesitation.

Delart naturally sat next to me.

Only then could he properly see the five heroes sitting around the round table.

The hero of the wind, his name was Windor Dan Arkhan.

That guy seems to enjoy teasing Fenolino.

Do people with the same two different names have something in common?

The two heroes were still arguing.

Amor is enjoying tea next to him.

Delart chuckled at Fenolino and Windor arguing over what was fun.

Finally, the man sitting across from me.

‘Hero of obedience.’

All I can say is that it is all white.

That’s why his appearance is pure white.

Pure white hair and plain white clerical attire.

Her skin seemed to glow even when she was still.

It’s a little disgusting because a man looks like that.

But isn’t the divine power too blatant?

Even with my eyes closed, I could feel that I was conscious of this side.

It was because the divine power that emanated from him was only directed towards me.

So I put my eyes on it.

How many minutes had passed like that?

“Everyone is gathered.”

he opened his eyes

I look around with silvery eyes.

Then, naturally, I saw this.

I mean, I’ve been watching it since before.

“A high-ranking warrior, Lokram. They seem to be aware of my divine power.”

“hmm?”

It was only natural that everyone’s attention would be poured into his one word.

Among them, Delart and Fenolino showed the greatest interest.

“My child, I guess reading the stream of calm wasn’t a fluke, was it?”

“The more you look at it, the more it becomes a thing. His talent is just as outstanding as his muscular strength.”

It’s a bit burdensome.

Surely the reason you called me wasn’t to promote me to a hero, right?

Such situations were to be avoided.

I came here because I couldn’t avoid being called by heroes as a warrior.

In the yard where you don’t know what to do, you rise to the position of a hero here?

‘It’s a warlock hunt, and you can be bound to one area after receiving a fief and a title.’

Thinking of the worst case, I looked at the hero of obedience who clapped his hands.

“If this continues, the hero will feel burdened. Please do not forget the purpose for which we gathered. everyone.”

“The purpose of gathering? We gathered because you called. If it wasn’t for the debt I owed in the past, I wouldn’t have come.”

Windor grumbled, leaning against the backrest.

Everyone seemed to agree, but they were silent.

“hahahaha, that’s why everyone gathered. Well, I think I’m grateful for being able to gather like this. This must also be the result of the guidance of the God of Light.”

“Brat. It is only our will that we have gathered. Don’t assume it’s God’s will.”

At Fenolino’s point, the hero of obedience, Brat von Kreor, responded with a smile.

It didn’t look like he understood her point.

“Since everyone is busy, it would be better to keep the meeting short and simple. Let’s get right to the point. Mr. Amor. Please inform us of the beginning of the meeting.”

“hmm… As the ruler of the Empire’s law and conscience, I declare that the meeting of the five heroes has been held cleanly.”

At his declaration, Brat nodded.

“There are two things to decide at the meeting. First of all, what kind of reward should be given to the undefeated hero who killed the Archbishop of the Amtheist Church on our behalf?”

“That could be given to you roughly. Since we have the same divine power, shouldn’t there be something we can communicate with each other?”

At Windor’s words, Brat half-opened his eyes.

“Your prank is mischievous. Let’s postpone the first agenda for now. Isn’t everyone here to hear the second one?”

Brat looked around the hall.

The silent ones didn’t even look at me.

It seemed that he really called it out of personal curiosity and compensation issues.

“Recently, I attempted to contact the Holy Kingdom.”

Brat’s remarks continued after a while.

I couldn’t help but listen.

I was vaguely expecting to see it here.

I never thought I’d bring up the case related to the Black Mist right away.

“That talk. Is this a question Lord Lokram can hear?”

Brat affirmed Amor’s point that discipline was more important than anyone else.

“Then let’s continue talking.”

“thank you. The reason for contact is the black fog that has recently begun to be found in some specific areas of the continent.”

“hmm? If so, was it in our estate?”

Windor raised his hand.

He looked up at the ceiling as if recalling a black mist, then tilted his head.

“Is this serious? Did you already get rid of that?”

“How did you get rid of it?”

“Need a way? Just swish! When you swing it, boom! and disappeared.”

Windor punched the air.

It’s a ridiculous gesture, but no one laughed at it.

If it’s the power he possesses, I can only estimate that it’s possible.

“That’s not a fundamental solution. Mr. Windor.”

“You talk like you know the solution?”

“Because I know, I summoned you all. Once contact with the Holy Kingdom ended up failing. Because the second princess there was more stubborn than I thought.”

Are you talking about Percy?

Since he was a sincere colleague who only thought about the safety of the party, it was understandable.

It seemed that he decided it was right to refuse as he was even a Brat who followed a different doctrine.

“Is the reason you sought help from the Holy Kingdom because you need more divine power to dispel the black fog?”

“It is not.”

At Amor’s question, Brat shook his head.

“I have enough divine power. It’s just too much for me.”

“But I wonder why you asked for help. It seems like an incident that could be passed on to the Empire if the circumstance arises.”

Amor also seemed to be aware of the Black Mist.

Well, it’s strange that he doesn’t know as he is the one who manages the overall rules and laws of the empire.

“To prevent that from happening, the Baekkyo side took on everything and contacted us. Anyway, since it’s broken down, the story of the Holy Kingdom is about this, and the main point is one.”

Brat pointed to the ceiling.

It is stained glass that shows no abnormalities.

On the surface, it seems so.

But I saw it in my eyes.

It’s really varied.

Is black magic next to magic and divine power that even heroes cannot feel?

It was the dark magic that appeared on the ceiling of the conference room, which could be seen as the center of the imperial castle.

It was a big enough event to turn the empire upside down, but seeing the divine power surrounding it, it seemed like Brat intended it.

“Can you see it?”

Three responded to his question.

Amor and Fenolino, lastly me.

But he didn’t show it outwardly.

He held on to his emotions with his mental strength and remained calm.

More than this is the specification.

I just don’t know what I’m going to do.

“Brat. That dark magic is safe, right?”

“You don’t have to worry. Mr. Amor. There is no way that low-level black magic could break the power bestowed by the God of Light, right?”

Shrugging his shoulders, Brat waited for Fenolino’s answer.

“Huh, did you elaborately weave the divine power into a lattice structure? At the same time, I took care of the concealment.”

“You see right away.”

Brat looked at me for a moment, but then looked away.

I turned my head for a moment and stared at empty space.

“It’s fortunate that we can recognize both of them. The black magic I brought is not normal black magic.”

“Could it be the culprit of the black fog?”

“That’s right. It is part of the dark magic that is the main body of the incident that is happening now. It is the culprit that must be eliminated from now on.”

“Where did you get it?”

Amor stroked his neatly grown beard.

Brat explained step by step to the attitude of interest.

“At the point when the incident was observed, Baek Kyo immediately took action. We sent expeditions to all areas where black fog was observed.”

A portion of the black magic gained in the process.

“The culprit that spread the black fog was on an uninhabited island. The location is a port city in the Mertain Sea area in the southern part of the Empire. This is what only one of the expeditions headed there brought as the sole survivor.”

Brat shook his dark magic.

Everyone, including me, was lost in thought at his words.

Each of them has a region to protect, and there are things to do.

So you must be thinking about whether or not to contribute to this work.

Of course, I didn’t worry about that.

No, I didn’t have time to do it.

‘What is that?’

I was just looking into space as if I was doing something else.

A black dot that suddenly appeared was floating in the air.

Unencumbered by divine power or anything else, it still existed harmlessly there.

“Lokram.”

Then, I turned my head to the call of Brat.

he asked softly with a smile on his face.

“What were you thinking?”

“Dedicated… la?”

It was not intentional that the nonsense that came out of his question.

Words that suddenly popped into my head.

The compulsion to spit it out.

My mental power analyzed the unprecedented power that manipulated me even in the midst of this.

“That was the real culprit.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

Brat burst into laughter at my sighed conclusion.

It was a laugh that came out of genuine joy.

“this… The role seems to have been set.”

At his one word, the heroes’ astonished eyes turned toward me.

It was worth it.

Because the hero who was not expecting it at all saw through the real culprit that they themselves could not find out.

But that’s it.

It was only natural for the heroes to be displeased with Brat’s actions.

“You tested us.”

“sorry. Mr. Amor. As the issue was an issue, I had to make sure to select a colleague.”

“So, did Lord Lokram, who came all the way here simply out of our curiosity, get caught?”

At Delart’s question, he nodded.

“That’s right. Everyone is troublesome, but please dispel the black fog from the location I told you about.”

“Then can I leave? You already got rid of one.”

Windor slipped back his chair.

“of course. All you have to do is get rid of the black fog that extends anywhere except uninhabited islands.”

Bratt continued.

“You must hurry. It is not a gap that promotes and strengthens undead. It takes away the vitality of the living and dyes the land with black magic.”

“Is it rumored that the undead are infested?”

“The sudden enthusiasm is embarrassing. Lord Lokram.”

can’t help but see

I’m still consuming the undead to meet you guys.

I’m not saying that if you go there, you’ll be able to suffice the undead supply.

“The god of war told us to put the dead back where they should be.”

Brat let out a nasal sigh when I said it properly wrapped.

“As I’ve heard, it’s a divine power that is extremely chaste. However, I do not admit it.”

If you don’t admit it, what will you do?

“The god of light is the parent who is the root of all gods. In that respect, Lokram’s divine power is heterogeneous. Even though I am a believer who follows a different doctrine, why is my divine power white?”

He was pointing out my golden divine power.

“Does that mean that I am a heretic?”

“That would need verification. I’ll ask. Would you like to follow the doctrine given by the god of war that Lokram is serving and eliminate the culprit of the Black Mist with me?”

“That’s right. I can’t just let it go as long as I’ve heard it.”

“Then can you dispel my doubts?”

“What if I refuse?”

The annoying thing is that I hate it.

I don’t want to kick the golden opportunity to supply undead.

“There is nothing wrong with refusing. I have no choice but to lead the Holy Knights of the White Church alone.”

Giving up quicker than you think

However, the desire in his eyes seemed far from giving up.

I feel the zeal to interpret the golden divine power that I possess.

Fenolino’s interest alone makes me dizzy.

‘This looks like it’s sticking to the bra.’

I couldn’t help it more than this.

Do you reject it and keep it under constant suspicion and surveillance, or do you accept it and go your own way by solving the case neatly and taking care of the profits?

The answer was fixed.

“What am I going to do to get rid of your suspicions?”

“It’s simple. It’s a question that will be solved if you sparring with me once.”

I was silent.

The heroes showed interest as if they accepted it as a positive thing.

The person concerned is drying up his mouth at the sudden proposal.

‘The situation is really running like a dog.’

It’s not good to be swayed by such one-sided demands.

So I calmly opened my mouth.

“If I succeed in dispelling Brat-sama’s suspicions, I have a wish for you too.”

“Oh, if you’re putting a condition on it, I’ll listen.”

Yes, if there is something coming, there must be something going.

I laid out the conditions I had in mind while calling for joy inside.
