The Barbarian Became a Necromancer

007.

With a happy face, Seira underlined the list written in the notebook.

‘I made breakfast with this… Is escort next?’

I’m going to go pick up the empty bowl soon.

I took a seat at an inn a little far away in case I got caught by the tail, but I have no regrets.

She was feeling strangely fulfilled by helping him so subtly.

‘A teacher who helps a disciple who has been reborn as a worthy warrior. Other professors won’t even feel this proud.’

For a while, I smiled with a slight sense of superiority.

Sarah’s expression quickly turned gloomy.

“Lokram. You stupid disciple.”

She recalled his actions that day at Rivatel.

Now I know why I went to the tomb where the heroes of the long past were buried.

I saw it with my own eyes, so I couldn’t tell.

‘I thought I went there to subdue the monsters that occupied that place.’

Humans are inherently selfish.

It is an animal that puts its own life and safety first and pursues its dreams.

But Lokram was different this time too.

As seen in the academy, I read Glaven’s difficulties and solved them.

‘I’ve only encountered it in books, it was the first monster I’ve ever seen. How on earth does Lokram know and oppose such a monster?’

I heard that you are from a tribe that exists in a remote southern region.

It must have been more difficult to come into contact with monsters in the south.

Even so, he treated me like I was used to it.

Rather, it came to overwhelm.

That power was the same as his power she had seen so far, but it was a little different.

It was proof that his growth was continuing.

‘You’re still moving even when you’re not feeling well.’

Seira looked at my hand.

Although he was given the position of professor, the calluses that were stuck in his hands did not disappear due to constant training and past battles.

It’s a rough hand that looks like a woman’s hand.

And it was the hand that was still there.

‘And I’m still ashamed to show it to others. I don’t think anyone would say anything about leaning on it without hesitation.’

The mercenary he hired didn’t notice it, but Seira noticed it long ago.

That Lokram was overworked and he needed a break now.

So I was taking care of every meal so that I wouldn’t be pursued and warding off any threats.

‘The monster corpse must have been taken for analysis.’

However, Lokram’s attack on monsters was skillful.

A slash of an ax that was like a storm.

In addition, the monster died as if only the vital points had been thoroughly violated.

I don’t think I took it for analysis.

‘perhaps… .’

Seira recalled what had happened before the monsters appeared.

An accident that was thought to be the work of a guy who came out of the ground.

What if he took the monster with him to analyze the strange flow of magical power that appeared at the tomb?

If that’s the case, it means that something even Lokram didn’t know about hit him at Rivatel.

“I can’t.”

Seira immediately started writing the letter.

An unknown cause happened to Lokram, and he brought the corpse of the monster to the inn to analyze it.

5,700 words written with a worried gaze, including what he did in Glaven.

Seira put a period at the end of the request for support to analyze the phenomenon.

[I can’t because I’m worried about what happened to Lokram. Please increase the authority to intervene with him.]

A letter was sent to the academy.

All that’s left now is to wait for an answer and focus on escorting him.

So the moment I spread the aura widely to feel Lokram’s presence.

“ah?”

A question came out of her mouth.

For some reason, it was because the regular army of the territory had arrived in front of Lokram’s inn.

***

The understanding of the skill originally intended to be achieved here has been completed.

Getting one of the hero’s souls is a huge bonus.

There is no reason to stay here anymore.

I was thinking of just getting a reward and leaving.

The next destination is the capital of the Kingdom of Magic, where the Royal Library is located.

As the direction of growth was set, he planned to thoroughly prepare for hunting warlocks and necromancers.

‘Five years until the resurrection of the demon king. Don’t be impatient just because it feels short.’

It is not too late to prepare by walking slowly and gathering things.

It was more important to survive after thorough preparation than to die while acting hastily.

This is a world where you can actually feel pain and know that real death may be lurking at the end of death.

profit.

I opened the inn door.

Now, I was thinking of meeting the guild leader and discussing the higher reward value.

Have a little conversation about how to negotiate with the lord who is involved in this affair.

But what about these pups?

Looks like Glaven’s soldiers.

Why are you blocking the front?

“Do you have something to do here?”

When I asked out of pure curiosity, a man who appeared to be the squad leader stood in front of me.

Due to the difference in physique, he raised his head and met my eyes, and he opened his mouth.

“There has been a report that you are a wanderer who has invaded the Holy Land. Am I right?”

Report… .

Is the culprit the guild leader or Tom?

He or a third person who saw it heading there?

‘It’s not all.’

noticed at once

That all of this was the work of a lord who was one step ahead of the guild leader.

In the first place, the report is just a fault.

He must have already known what happened to Rivatel through the guild leader.

I did it because I didn’t want to pay for it.

The reason why you can pamper yourself like this is because of ignorance.

He probably did this because he didn’t know that I had subdued a high-ranking monster.

‘Is it because I brought the body of Degrease into my inventory?’

I was worried about attracting attention.

I never thought that action would have an adverse effect.

I sighed at the greedy lord’s stupid choice.

“Heh, don’t think of doing anything stupid!”

A case that no one has solved.

I who defeated the culprit.

So it was natural for them to raise their hands on the swordsman, nervous even at the slightest action.

‘Should I wipe it out?’

There is no problem dealing with them right now.

It was because he recovered his body through the Bone Eater and was able to wield the storm sword once.

The problem was then.

After using it once, the aftertaste is huge.

Using the bone eater again didn’t seem like the muscle pain would go away.

‘Because this is also the pain I got rid of after using the bone eater after a week of recuperation.’

I brushed them away with calm eyes.

Judging by the rope he is holding, it seems that he is really only there for the purpose of taking him.

“How will you be charged with trespassing on the Holy Land?”

“It was said that the lord would make the decision himself. So please surrender and follow me.”

Is this kid’s eye a knot hole?

What kind of surrender is it when you are already empty-handed?

“I refuse to arrest you. I also have to take care of my own safety.”

“Do you think that is possible!”

“Then do you think it won’t work?”

At the innocent question, the squad leader shouted as if in a fit.

“This, interest right now… !”

Actions speak louder than words.

I reached out and showed them my empty hand.

“I am the one who subdued the culprit of the ban that neither you nor the Knights could solve. Wouldn’t it be nice to come out forcefully?”

I swallowed the afterword.

There was nothing to be gained by threatening more.

Still, the effect was good enough.

“Joe, if you show anything suspicious, I will arrest you right away.”

“Do it.”

While answering the squad leader who showed a more relaxed attitude than before.

I followed them

***

A light suddenly flashed on the top floor of the lord’s castle.

Soon after, a man with blond hair up to his waist emerged from there.

Mohanheim greeted him with socks.

“hahahaha, thank you for your hard work coming this far.”

“If you teleport the magic circle, you can come at once, so it’s not far.”

“I guess that too. come this way Preparations to serve Petran have already been completed.”

“hmm… is it.”

Petran followed the lord with a sad face.

As he said, the road was covered with a red carpet, and soldiers and knights lined up to the left and right greeted him.

The lord saw them and shouted loudly.

“This is Petran, a member of the Golden Scale! Give an example!”

“Meet Petran!”

They knelt down on one knee as if they had come together.

Seeing that, Petran smiled with satisfaction.

‘After all, being treated is the best.’

It was a life where he could not enter the warrior academy due to his lack of qualifications.

However, he is taken as a member of the Golden Scale and treated like a hero.

Of course, there are some limitations.

Because the Golden Scale was not created by the Empire to stand against evil like a warrior.

Still, he cannot follow the words of the leader who wants to carry out justice.

Also, you can’t use fame to make money.

Lastly, confrontation with the hero was strictly forbidden.

That was the limit imposed by the leader.

Petran cleverly twisted this and enjoyed being treated for good deeds.

‘Praise more. more. Fill my self-esteem.’

Petran enjoyed a luxurious meal under the guidance of the lord.

Does he even know what the lord is thinking, who calculated that all of this is cheaper than Yeongcho?

You probably don’t know.

“Isn’t it time to talk about work soon?”

“Ah, my request is simple. Petran. Recently, there was someone who broke into and damaged Glaven’s pride, Rivatel. I would like to ask you to deal with him.”

“Hmm, not only did he infiltrate the haven where the heroes of old are resting, but he also damaged it… The death penalty deserves it.”

“That’s right. They are coming in captivity, so you just have to punish them as soon as they arrive.”

“Are you strong enough to call me?”

Youngjoo nodded vigorously.

“We are the ones who dealt with the culprit that we couldn’t solve, but it was very difficult because we didn’t have the means to hold on to such a strong man.”

“Isn’t it strange that you came here meekly and restrained for something like that?”

“I am a wanderer with an ambiguous identity. The lord gave a bluff, but would you mind not coming? Even if they are strong, they are oppressed by power.”

“Well, that’s it too.”

Knowing the absurdity of the power the leader had experienced, Petran was convinced.

It felt that the Drifter was simply out of luck.

If you fall into the eyes of those in power, those words are extreme.

‘It’s unfortunate.’

He was put in a position to be executed by himself at the spot where he was questioned for his crime.

The mouth wrote.

Still, work is work.

With this, he could pay off his debt to the lord, so it was a surplus business for Petran.

“Then let’s pay off the 100 platinum coins I borrowed from you.”

“Is it possible? It’s good for each other, so don’t worry.”

While nodding at his words, Petran frowned at the urgent presence outside the concourse.

“what? Is there someone out there?”

“He’s just a guy who runs a small mercenary guild. I have something to say, how I screamed to be let in. Shall I throw it out if it makes you uncomfortable?”

“Can I hear what’s going on? If you’re a mercenary guild leader, you’ll be alert to external circumstances.”

“I heard that the wanderer could be a hero. Does it make sense? To think that the warriors who were concentrated in the northern part of the country were trying to enter the ban while hiding their identities. He must be talking nonsense to meet me.”

The lord, who quenched his thirst with wine, continued.

“Perhaps a diabolical wanderer might try to dazzle our eyes and ears with low lies like a guild leader. Petran-nim, don’t be fooled by that and just pass judgment.”

If that’s the case, there’s nothing to say.

So Petran waved his hand.

I just wanted to get rid of the noise pollution and get the job done quickly.

“Hello! Quickly get rid of the author who is disturbing the ears of Lord and Petran!”

When the leader of the knights accepted the order and shouted, the outside world instantly fell silent.

When Petran, quite satisfied with the atmosphere, quenched his thirst with tea, the waiting wanderer entered the central hall surrounded by soldiers.

But something is strange.

If they were bound, it was because both arms and legs of the warrior were free.

Petran’s question was answered by the lord.

“Why did you bring that criminal without tying it down?”

“We couldn’t help it because they said they would come quietly. If they were to arrest them, they would kill everyone on the spot… .”

Did he know that no matter what he said, it would only be an excuse?

The squad leader sighed and lowered his head.

“sorry.”

“Heh, I will ask about your sins later. Right now, the priority is to punish that bold thief.”

Mohanheim stared at the wanderer he finally encountered.

A guy who wanted to covet his own money as a reward for his low status.

size is considerable

The ferocious muscles that could not be covered even by the robes worn on the body wriggled as if they were trained only in actual combat.

‘As expected, it wasn’t a rumor that I defeated the culprit of Rivatel.’

so?

There is a member of the Golden Libra by his side.

In other words, there was a strong man who was comparable to a low-level warrior.

There is no change in execution.

He will be defeated even if he is desperate, and he will be buried in power even if he cries out for absurdity.

Because that was the flow of the world.

“Petran. I guess I’ll have to use a lot of strength, will that be okay?”

“you… .”

“yes?”

Hearing the trembling in his voice, the lord turned his head.

Petran, shocked for some reason, looked at the man and opened his mouth.

“Did you think he was an intruder and bring him here?”

that person? At Petran’s sudden honorific title, Mohanheim sensed something strange was going on.

So when I asked, Petran acted faster.

“Meet the undefeated champion, Lokram!”

Petran looked down with his head almost touching the ground.

The wanderer put his hand on his collar in silence.

Soon after, the moment he saw the pattern that he lowered his jacket, Mohanheim felt a terrifying feeling that made his heart sink.

“Huh!”

I don’t know the sides of the warriors, but I know that.

It was like a pass to travel to and from all kingdoms and empires, and a proof that any misdeeds could be punished under the Altar of Heroes and above all laws.

Besides, that golden pattern signified an honorable mark, a senior warrior, awarded only to a few of the academy’s top graduates.

‘Wealth, an undefeated warrior?’

Even Mohanheim was familiar with the reputation of an undefeated warrior.

That’s why I was out of breath.

‘now… I… uh, what are you doing… .’

What happened, blinded by the desire of the moment.

In a situation that can no longer be reversed, a profound voice rang out like thunder.

“Lord, is this your reward?”
