The Barbarian Became a Necromancer

095.

Even if the sandstorm is blocked, the temperature cannot be changed.

Stuffy, hot air fills the nostrils.

His body, already suffering from poor gas mileage, appealed for a break.

However, you cannot openly ask for a break.

10 minutes after starting the move.

I said to the two people ahead.

“for a moment.”

Even though he said it quietly, both of them turned their heads.

Even if Seira understood, Elten was surprised.

I can’t feel any magic power, but my ears are bright.

“Did you find something?”

I shook my head at Seira’s approaching question.

“I have a question.”

I turned my attention to Elten.

She widened her eyes at being pointed at.

“Why are you leaving the intact road and going over the Garden?”

Even in desert areas, there are flat areas.

But we were crossing only the garden with such a road beside it.

“ah! Didn’t I explain?”

“I didn’t.”

“sorry. I know, but the client doesn’t know. I keep forgetting. For a simple reason. There might be an aisle.”

“Passage?”

“Yes, these gardens hide the entrance to the desert dawn. We have to find it through a sandstorm.”

That’s why you’ve been doing such a bothersome thing.

Thanks to you, I was able to catch my breath.

You should keep asking whenever you have time.

It gave me a reason to take a break.

He’s a historian, so he knows a lot about the dawn of the desert.

I walked ahead as if I understood.

“Keep going.”

It’s been a while since I went ahead.

They were quickly overtaken, but the two kept pace with each other.

Sarah looked at me worriedly.

“are you okay? It looks tough.”

“It is not difficult to move.”

“then… ah. You’ve been continuously inducing magic power.”

Seira looked at my hand and responded that she understood.

The fidget spinner she gifted me, no. I was the one who kept running the micro-magnetism accumulator.

I was subconsciously turning my eyes away from fatigue even a little bit, but did you understand this behavior that way?

“It must have consumed a lot of Aura. Lokram is amazing.”

“Because it’s better to quickly achieve your goal and move on.”

Now that this has happened, let’s put an iron plate on your face.

Seira, who smiled satisfied with my answer, brought up a sudden thought.

“Now I’m asking you, does Lokram have a reason for visiting that ancient city? You don’t have to answer anything if you say something. Just out of pure curiosity.”

How would you like me to explain this?

It’s good to have a look around… I do have one.

“To take things about hometown.”

“hometown. Come to think of it, I heard that there is a problem in the village where Lokram was born and raised. Is it related to him?”

Let’s say so.

I’ll send Seira back before we get to the village anyway.

There was no hesitation as it was a lie that would neither be shown nor caught.

“It’s not something that can be solved by just going.”

“Can’t I help?”

“Only the members of the village can interfere in the affairs of the village. Because that is tradition.”

tradition.

Seira had no choice but to back down at that iron-clad word.

Even though I saw with my own eyes that I had overcome many crises, my professor was always worried about me and always willing to help me.

The reason for this is understandable.

‘That’s because I can’t see the candidates I taught die.’

Of course, I plan to live up to her expectations.

I have no intention of dying like this.

A way to counter the fragments you will probably be facing for the first time.

We were able to stop moving only after the day was over.

“I’ll plow the ground.”

Elten helped Seira set up a tent.

I was able to take a break using the pretext of finding a passage as a shield.

Before long, a nice tent was erected.

All of these are from my inventory.

Because it is such a large space, everything is in it.

Seira was used to it, but Elten was so surprised when he saw it for the first time.

“Do you know how this desert was formed?”

While she was preparing the meal, she talked nonchalantly.

As a historian, I know a lot.

But what about

This one also has its own knowledge.

“It was originally a plant, wasn’t it? I know it was a forest where elves lived in the past.”

But those elves are no more.

It is because of the curse of the devil.

determined death.

The curse that gave the elves the bond of lifespan destroyed them, who had built up all kinds of wisdom and immortal strongholds in just a few hundred years.

The result is this Leheld Desert Zone.

The elves to manage the vast vegetation disappeared and desertification began rapidly.

Looking at the environment where not a single blade of grass could grow, Elten smiled bitterly.

“that’s right. But now those elves are not here. Just as you all have a purpose to find the dawn of the desert, you know that I also have a purpose to help, right?”

“Are you thinking of telling me?”

“Conversation strengthens relationships and helps to develop bonds.”

Season the stew.

Elten put down the ladle and took out the utensils.

“I believe that the last wish of the elves lies in that ancient city. Wouldn’t they be afraid of extinction?”

“I don’t think so.”

“is it so. He must have succeeded or laid the foundation for a revival. But I looked around their bases all over the continent and found nothing. Then, this is where my feet landed.”

“Did you help us with the investigation of the elves?”

“I am sorry. Just because it looks like this doesn’t mean I feel sympathy for the elves. It’s a personal curiosity. Do you know about Del Cernello?”

Pour the thick stew into a bowl.

Handing it over, she poured out her portion.

“The hero of the South. I think the reason why his reputation has continued to this day is because of the peace he made. Isn’t the land of the elves fertile?”

She slurps, swallows the stew, and smiles lightly.

As the expression suggests, the food was delicious.

“As much as it is fertile, humans have built numerous cities. But they failed to attempt a war with the elves.”

“Del Cernello. It must be because of the city he built.”

“that’s right. He did not make peace with the surrounding territories with a hundred words or a friendship built from the ground up.”

“sure?”

When Seira showed curiosity, Elten hit the bowl with a spoon.

“like this! It was simply swung. It’s violence. The most primitive and simple, the power that is the foundation of governance. The bigger the city gets, the more difficult it is to wield, but that hero was different. It is because they have been filled with abundance and joy for a long time while removing external enemies through violence.”

“Do you think you had enough strength?”

“Everyone has. The most similar power in this era… Undefeated Warrior! Did you know? I think it’s similar to the battle flames he’s known to deal with.”

“Ahahahaha… Oh, I know.”

Saira blurted out.

Then I look at my complexion, don’t worry. I didn’t panic.

‘Because I’m going there knowing.’

Del Cunello’s secret is, as Elten said, focused on strengthening.

There were many aspects similar to Lokram’s Controversy and Golden Throne’s reign.

That power was similar to raising all stats equally, except for mental strength, because it was a simple but powerful fight.

“There were so many rumors. Didn’t you stop hundreds of monsters alone, didn’t you buy time alone from the black mage’s academy invasion? Is that a feat that a mere candidate can do?”

“It is possible!”

“yes?”

“no. that it would be possible… I think.”

She hurriedly changed her words, and her face was frowned as if she had been insulted.

Actually, she saw what Lokram had done with her own two eyes.

But you’d be angry if you tried to deny all the hardships in front of your face.

“So, what does Del Sernello have to do with finding the elf’s secret wish?”

“Oh, were you talking about that? Hide the rarest in the safest place. Common sense. At the time, Del Cunello was a strong man recognized even by the elves. It was also a very safe one. Then, there must be one place where the elves’ secret wish is expected to be, right?”

Del Cernello’s Tomb.

Apparently, Elten and I are in the same destination.

The purpose may be different, but I was a little reluctant to overlap.

“That is why I am guiding you. For what purpose are you two looking for an ancient city?”

Seira’s ears perked up.

I glossed over it with tradition, but am I focusing on whether or not I can listen to it this time?

But it doesn’t matter.

“Your purpose is to guide us to the dawn of the desert. Just focus on your purpose. Because sometimes there are things you don’t know.”

“ah… .”

If you really know my purpose, you have no choice but to kill me.

It’s openly dealing with black magic, but what silence can be surer than death?

Elten shut his mouth at my cold voice.

Soon after, he carefully accepted the apology and left the place.

***

A week has passed.

In the meantime, we repeated walking and resting.

The sandstorm intensified without stopping, and so did my doubts.

‘According to Elten, this is the center of the desert. It can’t be dismissed as a natural phenomenon that there is such a strong sandstorm in such a place.’

This makes sure.

The black magician who showed signs of joining with the fragments of the demon king is here.

Either one.

I had a track record of receiving both arcane spells.

‘Cadurad? Or is it Ye Manzel?’

The one who poured out the swamp of corruption and the b*tch who exploded the corpse.

Is the one who inherited the secret magic of the two really a disciple?

Maybe not.

It could be the one who killed the successor and took arcane magic.

Several cases had to be considered.

‘Degris. If you find something with dark magic or a solid artifact while searching this area, return immediately.’

Silently summoned Degris from the ground.

I looked around, feeling the dark magic of the creature moving secretly.

“This is not a hill.”

Elten, who had put his head down at my muttering, lifted his head.

“yes! Because my senses are telling me. It’s definitely near here.”

I don’t think it’s a degrease.

Like a seal meeting water, it quickly sweeps the soft sand and is already far away.

It was a joke.

So, it was necessary to correct her flatulence.

“If something was caught, I would have caught it with my magic response. In vain. do not move.”

“no! Just wait!”

Elten took out a watch from within his bosom.

5 minutes left until noon.

“5 minutes! Just wait five minutes.”

I felt a strange sense of deja vu at her words.

‘When the wrath of the sky grows, look in the direction the sun rises and worship. Then let it be opened.’

A riddle that needs to be solved in order to reach the city.

If the anger of the sky is a sandstorm, does the direction in which the sun rises mean the position of the sun at the right time?

‘If that’s the case, how should I worship?’

Elten’s stubbornness may be the key to the second puzzle.

But there is no correlation whatsoever.

Did the sandstorm help reveal the passage? no.

So what about the sun at the right angle? I don’t know.

After all, this riddle is difficult for me.

I’d rather read the strategy guide one more time.

“ah! That’s Okay!”

what happened

Elten, who gave the signal, pulled out my hair.

Isn’t that the point of sitting down and bowing?

Still I was thinking everything she did was wrong.

But it wasn’t.

Kuheung!

The sudden change of the storm.

It splits into small pieces, then turns into a tornado and wraps itself around us.

Tornadoes are everywhere, and the sun is shining brightly overhead.

Magical energy flowed from Elten, who was prostrated in the center.

‘hmm?’

It’s a clear magic that I’ve never felt before.

Should I say that it is refreshing and cool like peppermint?

Before even feeling the energy, Elten shouted.

“The Worship of Del Cernello is an anthem of strength! Please watch over me while the passage opens!”

As soon as she finished speaking, something came out of the tornado.

oh oh!

Sand Golem.

Those moving with a nucleus somewhere in the body approach every moment.

That’s why I didn’t come alone even though I knew everything.

“Shall I take the class?”

I shook my head at Seira’s calm question.

This is where Elten is.

It’s a little daunting to deal with them while hiding my bottom line.

So, I plan to wield the power to show it openly.

There was no need for Seira’s help.

“Close your eyes. And get down.”

I took a step forward and opened my inventory.

Seira reacted quickly.

She has a history of experience.

thud! The white sword of condemnation strikes the sandy beach.

After dropping the holy relic, I let go of my will as I used magic reversal.

‘Storm sword.’

Wow!

A dazzling amount of light swept across the area.

The sand golem and the tornado behind it dissipate helplessly.

In an instant, Elten raised his head at the surrounding situation.

“Eh?”

A stupid sound comes out of her mouth.

I was about to say the same thing.

It was because a huge stone gate towered in front of Elten before he knew it.

It wasn’t a joke, it was a win.
