The Barbarian Became a Necromancer

069.

The continent is wide.

There are many places where the light is not as wide as it is wide.

No matter how strong the Baegyo and other deities worshiped, it was difficult to manage all places.

Therefore, darkness is inevitable.

Evil dug into such a place tenaciously.

And they succeeded in creating a new home.

Underground of unknown depth.

Brightly shining stalactites fill the ceiling.

Beneath it, countless people prostrated themselves.

All of them are dressed in black robes.

They were looking at only one place.

A gray temple towered there.

Built on desolate rocks, dark magic constantly flows from it.

It spread slowly, and it had the momentum to fill the vast common floor.

“Ah, demon king… .”

“thank you. thank you.”

They were thrilled as if they had received grace and indulged it greedily.

Regardless, the interior of the temple was extremely quiet.

It’s a simple interior compared to the huge magic power that emanates from it.

A place with a rough stone table and chairs in the center.

Only the black magic that constantly flowed from the black crystals embedded in the ceiling was making the temple special.

The three men and women who were guarding the place sat on chairs and looked at the empty seats.

“Aren’t you the kind of person to be this late?”

He puts his feet on the table and puts his hands on the back of his head.

The one who broke the silence was a man with black hair who seemed to have had his hair cut randomly.

“Although the kid has become cocky. Is it because I was in charge of the resurrection of Mr. Shard alone?”

“Carrian, when was the last time you saw Balik?”

“Half a year ago? At that time, we went to Hwansurim together and broke up. why?”

Carian. He stared at the woman talking to him.

Pale skin, gray hair, white eyes.

The woman, who looked like a corpse, spat out her thoughts as hard as a machine.

“He must be dead.”

“Why do you think so?”

Carian laughed fiercely.

Release your hand and bend and straighten your fingers.

Sharp black magic swirled through his fingertips.

“Could my best friend be dead? If nothing else, I hate people who gossip about my friends the most. You will have to tell me why.”

“Am I not your friend?”

“Oh, I didn’t like it from the first time I saw it. I forgot my name I don’t like it because I don’t put it in my head.”

“Payal. Please remember.”

“Shut up your mouth.”

thud! he hit the table

It cracks in an instant with enormous force.

What prevented it from collapsing at any moment was the same dark magic that Feyal emitted.

“Why do you assert that Balik is dead?”

“You seem to know him well. Because I know too. Valik is sincere. He cared for Shard, who was scheduled to be resurrected, more than anyone else. He did not announce the news of his resurrection, and he did not show his face at the regular meeting of the archbishops held every year. What does this mean?”

“Is this the one that was caught by the hero of Gwangwan?”

The answer to Payal’s guess was a man wearing a bowler hat.

A well-groomed beard is impressive.

When he looked up, his face was horribly chapped.

There is nothing above the corner of the mouth.

There was only a scar that seemed to have been ripped off by something.

“Delat. If he made me like this, he would have subdued Valik enough.”

“But that dull bastard couldn’t have noticed Valik’s stealth, right?”

Carian shrugged.

They seemed to believe that Valik was not dead.

Payal stared at him and said clearly.

“I sent a messenger, so he will be back soon with information. The speculation ends here.”

“Are you arguing and you hang up?”

“It’s because of the inefficient conversation.”

“For a corpse to talk about inefficiency… .”

Cararian’s gaze turned to another empty seat.

“Then why didn’t he come?”

“We are in the midst of preparing for the disruption of the northern battlefield. That too is almost over.”

“Oh, what is that? Was it the fake hero project?”

“It must be a false warrior. All tiles are ready. Lila. She would complete the job perfectly.”

“hahahaha! that’s kinda expected It is an advance base for humans who are being attacked by the demon king army and the dark religion… . There will be great confusion.”

“It will be a good battlefield for you to play.”

rattle!

The temple door opened and the conversation was cut off.

They didn’t even look at the man coming in.

As if he was used to it, the man prostrated himself and reported.

“Meet the Archbishops. Payal-sama, I’ve been looking for information about Balik.”

“Tell me.”

He opened his mouth at Payal’s words.

“Yes, Lord Valik… I left first for the Demon King.”

“Hey, you’re looking at it and you’re kicking your nose?”

The man held his breath at Carian’s cool question.

It was because of the dark magic that oppressed his whole body.

“Turn it off… .”

I try to endure it, but it’s the limit.

The mind is scattered.

A ferocious black magic that seemed to tear the soul apart.

It was the man in the fedora who stopped it.

“Calm down, Carian.”

“I’ll kill him and calm down.”

“Then the mouth to report will disappear.”

“Gail, you can ask the spirit. is not it?”

“hmm… , That’s it too.”

Jill covered his face with a bowler hat.

It is an unspoken affirmation to continue.

So it was just when Carian reached out.

“I hope you don’t break my doll.”

Payal intervened.

He prevented the table from collapsing and even prevented the death of the messenger.

From Cararian’s point of view, I couldn’t help but be angry.

It was because he had the personality of turning his head around if he didn’t let go of his anger in time.

“Are you going to kill me?”

“What if you could kill me?”

For the first time, Payal’s expression changed.

It was an eerie, cool smile.

Carian grunted and put her hands together.

It’s not like I ever felt pressured.

never.

“Now, messenger? Would you like to continue talking?”

“yes yes… .”

Taking a deep breath, he stuttered his report.

The death of Balik and the extinction of the demon king’s fragments.

Of course, the reason for this was Gwangwan’s hero.

And there was another one.

“It’s a cold energy that goes beyond the water attribute… I do know one mage who can handle that kind of energy.”

A wizard who handles unique attribute power is precious.

How much more is the realm high?

It was a structure to remember.

“The warrior on the white side intervened.”

“Aden party?”

It was a party of warriors made up of average upper-middle class.

Compared to other warrior parties, it is at the highest level.

One of them, the white-faced warrior, was well acquainted with them.

“Lea Greenwood. It’s surprising that she intervened. For what purpose?”

What could be the reason why the magician came to the phantom forest?

He probably didn’t come to help the hero.

According to the investigation, she was indifferent to everything.

“Perhaps by chance, or Balik must have contacted you first.”

“There was another strange thing.”

Everyone’s eyes narrowed at the man’s continued words.

They muttered in unison.

“Golden… Divine power?”

“Yes, it is a table of the properties and colors of the aura obtained as a result of examining the remaining magic power.”

The copper plate the man took out was engraved with frost, gold, and red.

It was an aura other than the black magic that was detected on the spot.

“Among the members of Aden’s party, was there anyone who handled such an unusual energy?”

“no. As far as I know, no. warrior of love. Because her divine power is white.”

Jale said.

Amnesia only did not intervene in the demon king’s army, and it has completed a thorough information investigation.

That’s why it was even more suspicious.

“Looks like we missed something.”

“If you look at the recent movements of heroes, there are not only a couple of suspicious things.”

Recently, the saint of Baekkyo showed suspicious movements.

The wind hero intervened in Dungrid’s case as well.

“It’s all because of the changes in the heroes after Balik’s death… .”

Payal murmured quietly.

The heroes who were always silent moved.

What is the reason?

You’ll find out if you investigate again.

But before that, she had work to do.

“Go back. Carrian, Jail. There must be something in common between the heroes. We have to figure that out.”

It is difficult for them to start their activities, which have been quiet for so long.

Amnesia has not yet been able to reveal itself to the world.

Even if it is revealed, that day must be a decisive moment.

“Gail, you said you were preparing something to happen on the blessed day, right?”

“It is almost over. All the gangs in the back alleys have been bribed, and the underground canal has already been taken over.”

“Carrian must be busy with the restricted area in the south.”

“Are you talking about Gelea Volcano? don’t talk Investigations are slow, days get hot. A corpse like yours will rot away as soon as you leave, right?”

“Whoops. It can’t be.”

“Unluckily funny. So, what kind of great thing are you preparing for Mr. Shard?”

Finally, I moved on to the reason this meeting was held.

We share what we are preparing for each other and seek advice and help.

None of the three had the personality to seek advice or help from each other.

So, this was a one-sided declaration.

“I’m thinking of destroying the organization that trains warriors from the inside out? I have finished all the preparations for that.”

“under! The Demon King has made many such attempts. But do you think someone like you can make it?”

“Why do you think you can’t? Demon Taming Academic Conference. Fools hanging on to hope have already taken the bait. The dolls that melted there worked hard.”

Payal showed what he had prepared.

An academic conference held by the Alchemist School.

The ones to explode there were monsters who thought the candidates had subdued them.

“It will be a bloody feast.”

“What about variables?”

“There won’t be any unless a hero or something of a heroic quality intervenes.”

A hero’s body is one.

The number is also five.

None of them are even interested in a hero training institution.

Therefore, Payal was confident in the safety of this operation.

“I’m going to have fun playing with dolls? How good is it that there is no harm to the contrary and it is even safe?”

The two were silent.

Compared to them playing in the field, they sincerely hated seeing Payal, who seemed to be playing around with necromantic techniques.

“I will refuse.”

The atmosphere turned cold at the resolute voice of the Summoning Department Head.

This is the last seat to determine the participants of the monster taming conference.

There, after reading Lokram’s thesis, she came to a firm conclusion.

“Lokram. At first glance, the thesis written by this warrior from Cain Academy is good.”

But that’s it.

The head of the Summoning Department pointed out the lacking part.

“The evidence supporting the structure of the magic line connected to the monster is weak. Also, the idea of synchronizing with the monster’s brainwaves and making them obey orders is good, but the risk is too great.”

There is no objection to the point-by-point.

Instead, the head of the department and the recommenders gathered at the table only muttered inwardly.

‘There are more correct words than lacking parts, but it’s very crazy to drop them.’

Kenyal didn’t like her attitude.

It is Lokram with the warrior of perception on his back.

If you bake him well and get the support of phenolino, the value is astronomical.

For some reason, the head of the Summoning Department and her recommenders did not allow Lokram to participate in the conference.

‘Haa, that’s why I can’t ask Fenolino-sama to use some strength. It’s troublesome.’

Only the head of the department and the recommenders can intervene in the academic conference.

It was a rule made in the sense that power and power should not intervene and obscure its purpose.

Therefore, applicants must be selected unanimously.

It was a device for the level and stability of academic conferences.

This is because even if someone steals the contents of the announcement, it can be corrected.

“… For that reason, I decided to reject the request of the hero Lokram… .”

“wait a minute.”

Of course, there is a way to change that situation.

Seira, who was filling the seat as a recommender, stood up.

“As far as I know, even if the head of the department refuses, if there are more recommenders than people from the institution, approval is possible. Is that right?”

She is a former professor at Cain Academy.

It wasn’t because she didn’t participate in the academic conference.

The head of the Summoning Department opened his mouth at the correct words.

“Keep talking.”

No matter what you say, rejection is certain.

No matter how much Lokram is a man with Cain Academy on his back, approval is close to impossible.

There were 28 people in her aide, especially in the Summoning Department.

All of them, made up of professors and associate professors, had to obey her.

Since it’s a matter that even the hero can’t intervene in, we have to push it forward… .

‘Is it really possible?’

The Summoning Department Head smiled brightly.

That laugh soon broke.

“All 152 professors and associate professors who manage all grades of Cain Academy request approval of the letter of recommendation recommending Lokram’s dissertation.”

A variable has been created.

A variable that will cause a big setback to the plan, not anything else.

I never dreamed that Lokram would gain the trust of all the educators at the academy.

‘What should I do?’

‘Accept it for now. I didn’t expect this to happen, but I can’t help it.’

The head of the Summoning Department threw a question into his head and nodded at the resounding voice.

‘The plan is carried out without a hitch.’

The last words in her voice gave her confidence.

‘Let’s hold a gig when the late hero and the invincible warrior go home after finishing their errands.’

‘All right. If successful, my brother will… .’

‘Do not worry. My younger brother, who died after being abandoned by Baekkyo and the Empire, whom you believed in, will be revived through my doll with his original soul.’

‘Ah, thank you. Mr. Payal.’

The head of the Department of Summoning, who internally thanked him, took a stamp.

So, Lokram’s thesis was approved.

The monster taming academic conference is right around the corner.
