33 – Monster Hunter.

Ed completed the Skeleton Desert Lizard, but one problem came to mind.

‘Shall we all enter the subspace?’

The subspace of a 7th grade necromancer was quite cramped. When I put the three skeletons in, I felt like the subspace was full, but what would happen if I put in the Desert Lizard? Ed grabbed the necromancer license, opened the subspace, and pushed the Skeleton Desert Lizard into it.

Ed sighed as he could feel that the sub-space exceeded the volume he could handle, and used self-destruction on the skeleton inside. The three skeletons collapsed in the sub-space, and the Desert Lizard entered the sub-space with room.

“It’s not the normal size, but it fits all in? It seems to take up more area than the skeletons and the three of us.”

From its slightly bowed head to its long tail, the size of the Desert Lizard was larger than that of a skeleton, as Glowin said.

“I put it in a little difficult. I want to increase the size of the subspace.”

“Can Ed raise it?”

“Um. I don’t know the method, but I know the ingredients. I’ve never tried it, so I’m just going to try it.”

Glowin was also curious about the ingredients, but kept her mouth shut because she didn’t want to be seen asking. Ed was pretty good at answering questions, so I thought it would be okay to ask a little when I brought the ingredients.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to save it with the help of the Church of Truth?”

Arevijou thought that since Ed was under the protection of Maria, a saint of the Church of Truth, he might be able to help. Watching them make it from the side, I felt that making a skeleton was more like making a tool than saying that it was against God’s will. The Desert Lizard Zombie shown yesterday felt like going against the providence, but the Skeleton felt different.

“I’m going to use it as a strategic resource in the north, so I won’t export it very often.”

“Isn’t there still someone stealing it?”

Glowyn, who thinks slightly freely, jumped on the horse of Arebijou.

“Mmm. If you don’t want to regret the rest of your life while your body is a skeleton and your soul is bound by necromancy.”

“That’s… a little…”

When the two women looked quite surprised at Ed’s words, Ed said with a slight smile.

“That’s the highest level of punishment. It might be like that if I shipped dozens of the ingredients I thought of outside.”

Once the northern winter passed, I was able to collect about 20 horns of gigant class monsters. So, dozens of Gigant’s horns were enough to receive a capital punishment for stealing supplies on a yearly basis.

“Still, I don’t know if the Church of Truth has it, so if there is something possessed by demons, may I ask if I can use it and get it?”

“Is it a demonic item? Yes. Let’s talk about it while contacting the saintess.”

Arevijou took Ed’s words as they were, and Glowin thought a little more.

‘Magic-tinged items available in the North, strategic resources, and things valued in Necropolis.’

Glowin recalled that Ed had become a special necromancer on the Northern Front and combined it with what Ed had said. And when I remembered that Edgar had the nickname Gigant Slayer, I was able to get some outline.

‘The whereabouts of a Gigant-level monster? Is that the material for subspace magic tools?’

“Shall we go back? I think I’ve done everything I needed to do here today.”

I paid the price for renting the space to the craftsman at the dismantling center at first, so I just had to leave the dismantling center quietly. Ed, Glowwin, and Arebijou came out of the dismantling center and went back to the inn. Ed had been concentrating for quite some time, so it didn’t become night, but he decided to lie down on his bed and take a nap.

Unlike Ed, who fell asleep comfortably, the two women got out of the inn after noticing each other. Glowin headed to the Lesand branch of Kala, which he found while wandering alone during the day, and Arebizu moved to use other denominations to contact the saint.

The next day, Glowyn said she was enjoying her vacation and was slumped in bed, so Ed headed to Les Sands with Arrebijou. After escaping the barrier, Ed immediately pulled the Desert Lizard out of subspace. Then, after restoring the skeleton in the subspace, I walked on the cracked ground again.

However, Ed felt a strange sense of incompatibility.

“Mr. Arebijou, isn’t it less hot today?”

“Hmm? I guess so.”

Ed felt that the amount of mana he was using to maintain his body temperature was less than two days ago.

‘Does winter come early in the South like the North?’

Ed read enough to memorize the book ‘Ecology of Southern Monsters’, so he knew that midsummer was more difficult for monsters in the South. I knew that monsters in the south were more active in the winter when it was a good time to move, but I didn’t know that winter came here from the beginning of November.

“Since the temperature has gone down a little, it seems that the monsters have become a little easier to move.”

Arrebijou guessed why Ed bothered to mention the weather when he saw the skeleton desert lizard walking next to him. No matter how much a monster has adapted to the hot weather, there will be a limit to the heat it can endure as long as it is a creature.

“Yes. I read that in the book too. I’ll have to be a little more careful today.”

After hearing Ed’s answer, Arebizu thought that the person who unilaterally hunted the Desert Lizard without properly dividing it seemed to be being cautious for no reason.

Ed and Arebizou came to an area where the sand was slightly fluttering and were able to spot a Desert Lizard.

“Kyaaak!!!”

As soon as the Desert Lizard spotted the two people, it started running like crazy. Ed brought the Desert Lizard he had summoned next to him in front of him.

“I will help too.”

The Desert Lizard came closer, but Arebizou saw that Ed did not summon additional skeletons and drew his sword.

“It’ll probably be okay. It’s my first time making it, so I put a lot of effort into making it.”

Even if the range to deal with the summons was longer, I could have dealt with Arebijou before worrying, but that was a little disappointing. 25m, a distance that would take only about 3 seconds for ordinary people to run fast, the Desert Lizard strode and Ed’s Desert Lizard also ran while absorbing the core’s mana as much as possible.

If you are a humanoid summoner like a skeleton, you will be influenced by Ed’s experience and learn swordsmanship, but since the skeleton desert lizard is not a humanoid, you focused on only two things and settled the core.

‘Power and speed.’

Like the Desert Lizard running with its mouth wide open, the Skeleton Desert Lizard opened its mouth wide. Even that was the same, but Ed’s Skeleton Lizard was a little faster and smarter. The Skeleton Desert Lizard lowered its head and burrowed into its bosom, biting its neck. And with great force, he twisted his neck at once.

-Duduk!

The desert lizard, whose neck bones were twisted in an instant, lost strength and fell to the floor, struggling with its arms and legs. Ed opened the subspace, restored a skeleton, and took it out. The Skeleton walked away and pierced the Desert Lizard’s heart with a sword, and the Desert Lizard, which was bleeding profusely, stopped moving.

“The skeleton is more comfortable. I’ll just use the Desert Lizard as a mount.”

Ed didn’t think it was efficient, as the bite marks on his neck also slightly diminished his marketability. Ed restored the two skeletons in the subspace and took them out and put the skeleton desert lizard in the empty space.

‘I really want to increase the size of the subspace.’

Even though Ed had a super-class necromancer license in the north, the size of the subspace was almost infinite, he only had eight summons. So, I hardly felt the lack of subspace, but I felt that the 7th level necromancer license was very lacking.

There is a Desert King Lizard as a potential monster that could be used as a subspace material in the south, but it seemed like it would only be possible to find it by going deeper into the desert.

‘That’s next.’

“Mr. Arebijou, let’s grab one more and go back.”

“Yes. Except for the hot sun, I don’t have any discomfort, so Ed will move as he wants.”

Having finished the two battles just by looking at them, Arebijou thought about bringing a parasol instead of a sword next time.

*

After killing another Desert Lizard, Ed returned to Les Sand’s base and disposed of the bodies of the two Desert Lizards for 6 million Energy and 5.7 million Energy. A corpse with a twisted neck was slightly cheaper than a corpse with only the head pierced through.

At the same time, the corpse of the Desert Lizard that other hunters had hunted also came in and was able to see how they hunted. By slicing through his well-developed legs with a sword, he definitely lost his strength, and there were minor scars elsewhere. The craftsman who lent the dismantling shop to me told me that even such a corpse could be sold for 6.5 million energy, originally up to 7 million, because it was sold including the bones.

“Are you going to assemble the bones again by the way?”

“Yes. I think I’ll need one as a spare. Ah. I’d like to fit a saddle or something. Is there anyone you can recommend?”

“Okay. Come with me.”

Ed, who was about to follow his father-in-law, called to Arrebijou, who was standing in a daze.

“Mr. Arebijou?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Oh, yes. I’ll be right there.”

Arebizou, who came to his senses at Ed’s call, thought as he followed the two men in front of him.

‘If you make this much money, how much do you donate to the Truth Church at the end of the year?’

Ed earned almost 15 million Enels in two days of hunting. As the supply increases, the purchase price will continue to drop, but after completing the second Skeleton Desert Lizard, I plan to go farther and hunt stronger monsters, and if I continue to do so, the profits will increase.

‘Should I help a little and get some pocket money… ?’

Material greed began to stir in the paladin’s heart.
