50 – How to attack the South

Subspace was the most similar concept among the concepts Ed knew, so he immediately came up with subspace, but there was no subspace that could be accessed by living things and had its own ecosystem. Thinking that it would be correct to see it as something similar to subspace but different, Ed turned the Skeleton Desert Lizard to return to his comrades.

‘It means that we need to find the source of the monster’s horns.’

If the size of the space was so close to infinity, it could be seen as comparable to the subspace using the horns of Gigant-class monsters. However, the monster’s horn only fixes the coordinates and creates a subspace, but other things related to size and maintenance required another force. Ed recalled the time when he used the Heavy Rock Turtle’s magic stone to expand subspace, and thought of a stronger catalyst than that.

“I hope… it won’t.”

The Desert King Lizard, a being that could be made like a monster, passed through Ed’s mind. I thought that it would be possible to create such a ridiculous space and maintain it for a long time with the dragon heart possessed by the dragon, the strongest life form that has already disappeared from this world for hundreds of years.

‘If there really is a dragon here… .’

Ed felt sorry that Death Knight Arang was not with him.

When Ed left to check the end of the river, the three women were sitting at a reasonable distance inside the wooden building. Hermona was the one who brought in Glowin and Arebizu, and although she felt like an outsider because she hadn’t been with them for close to a month, she had the deepest relationship with Ed, so in a way, she was the person at the top.

“First of all, I want to ask you this clearly… Mr. Glowin, what are you?”

“Huh? I’m the owner of the inn where Ed stayed.”

Since Glowin and Arebiju are a year older than Hermona, they decided to talk more comfortably, but since Hermona just spoke with a bit of hostility, Glowin used a respectful tone without realizing it. Hermona didn’t like what Glowin said, so she shook her head slightly and asked again.

“You belong to the Information Guild Color, right?”

At Hermona’s words, Glowyn froze. And when I slightly turned my head and looked at Arebijou, Arebijou seemed a little surprised. I’ve known Ed for almost two months, but I didn’t notice it, but within two days, Hermona found out. Hermona said as Glowyn kept quiet.

“As Ed’s lieutenant, the most important thing is to gather information. There is a way to find out about that.”

Hermona opened the subspace and summoned several small spiders. I was able to ask this question because I confirmed that Glowyn used the collar to join the spiders that came to Lessand and released them all over the village, and to receive information. The reason why Glowwin was caught was that he thought that the necromancer’s scouting ability would be reduced due to Ed’s shortcoming of 25 meters.

“Are you hostile? I’m thinking of cutting it off if it hurts Ed. Unfortunately, that paladin won’t be able to stop me.”

“I’m sorry…”

Arrebijou, who had confidence in his skills as a paladin protecting the saint, did not have the confidence to beat the two necromancers who had been trained in actual combat in the north. Since there was nothing to refute, Arebijou bit his lip. After a moment passed, Glowin opened her mouth.

“I was just looking at what you did. I came down from the north… The Kala wanted to quickly preoccupy the information of the super-class necromancer.”

Hermona thought that it was certainly true when Glowyn mentioned knowing that Ed was a super necromancer. And looking at Arebijou, he was sighing lightly.

“If you’re a super-class necromancer, you’re saying that there are only 18 strong people in the North? Ed’s strength is understandable.”

“Didn’t the Saint of the Church of Truth interrogate you properly?”

“I didn’t dig too deep because Enild-sama in Cetin guaranteed it. If the saintess was determined and tried to dig it out, she would have been able to find out.”

The atmosphere in the wooden building became quite heavy as Glowyn revealed that she was an intelligence agent for Kala and Arrebijou also learned that Ed was a super class necromancer. And it was Hermona who broke the atmosphere.

“Then let’s talk about it. What kind of Ed do I know? I didn’t see him in person when I was in the 3rd year of Terut Academy because my grade didn’t match, but I think I know him best.”

Glowyn asked Hermona at the sudden change of mood.

“Aren’t you going to ask me more?”

“Ed will take care of it. I was just asking something I was curious about. And do you think knowing our information will make it easy to stop it?”

“Even if you know, it will be difficult to stop…”

Arebijou recalled how Ed had mercilessly cut off the limbs of hunters a few days ago. At that time, what would have happened if Ed had really killed opponents and raised them up as zombies? Wouldn’t Lessand perish at the hands of Ed? Still, Ed had a problem, so I thought it would be a little difficult to perish alone, but Hermona was able to play a role in making up for that shortcoming.

It was really stupid to pick a fight with two necromancers who were thinking of going together to the end, since Hermona mentioned us.

“So I’m just skipping over it. If you’re going to talk about Ed, you can’t leave out the super-class necromancer.”

And as if nothing had happened, Hermona began telling the two of them the story of how she met Ed at Terut Academy. There was no time to get bored while listening to Ed’s academy life because it was a series of processes in which a commoner endured numerous checks and fought to become the head of the academy. Then, there was a gap in the story, but the contents of the year after Hermona graduated first, when she was in her third year at Edgar Terut Academy, were empty. Hermona quickly skipped over the part she hadn’t seen and moved on to the story of the 7th Ranger in the North.

Ed returned while Hermona continued to tell Glowyn and Arebijou about such a story. Seeing that the skeleton Hermona had set up as a guard outside was intact, it seemed that there had been no battle while she was away. Ed entered a wooden building where Hermona’s voice was heard.

“Did something happen?”

“Ed, stay out for a minute.”

“Because it’s important now.”

Glowyn and Arebijou looked at Ed as if they were an uninvited guest, and Ed was taken aback by their eyes.

“No. What’s important?”

Ed looked at Hermona for help, but Hermona grinned.

“That’s right? Ed, stay out for a minute! Look.”

As Ed moved away from the wooden building, Hermona started talking again. Ed, who had heard the story from the outside, knew what the two were talking about.

‘I never thought that would be now.’

As Hermona handed over the Skeleton Knight, she said that the excuse of being a 7th-class necromancer would no longer work, and that she would talk to the two in her free time. Ed returned from reconnaissance without imagining that the time would be now.

Ed sat nearby and collected his thoughts as he quietly listened to Hermona’s view of himself.

When Ed entered the wooden building, Glowyn and Arreviseu looked at him with pitiful eyes. Since Hermona had unraveled the story of Demona and Gray, the two interpreted in their own way roughly how Ed came down from the North.

In fact, he came down to the center as he wanted without much thought, so Ed, who felt burdened by that kind of look, clapped his hands once to go straight to the point.

“First of all, this seems to be a more dangerous and mysterious place than I thought. I ran for a long time in search of the source of the river, but I just confirmed that I was running in a straight line. When I ran, the angle was very different from what I saw, but I got the feeling that beyond this sandstorm, even the volcano is similar to a subspace.”

“This whole place is a subspace? That sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it?”

Hermona said with a slight frown. 7 Acting together as part of the guerrilla group, Ed had seen things that fit his intuition a few times, so he couldn’t easily pass them over.

“So I think dragons were involved in this space.”

The three women had no choice but to remain silent at Ed’s words. A dragon, a magical squire, an intelligent creature with a huge body. It occurred to me that if the sub-space was realized in reality as Ed had imagined, it could not be created without a dragon. After taking a moment to think, Glowin asked Ed.

“So Ed, you think dragons are the only beings that can create a space like this?”

“Yes. Since subspace was expanded using the Heavy Rock Turtle’s magic stone and an ecosystem was built on a completely different scale, I think a huge amount of mana will be needed. The Gigantic monsters I have hunted so far can exert this kind of power. “I couldn’t find anything better than that, so the only thing I could find was a dragon.”

After hearing Ed’s somewhat bright words, the three of them briefly thought about how dangerous it would be to explore here. I knew that Ed was a special necromancer who single-handedly cut down Gigant-level monsters in the North, but his opponent was a dragon, a being with unknown power.

“Dragons are stronger than Gigant-level monsters, right?”

Hermona looked at Ed’s bright face and remembered Ed’s nickname, the evil voice. Although he is a necromancer, he has no hesitation in putting himself in danger, so the nickname he was given was a perfect fit for him.

“Probably so, right? And first of all, we are preparing for the worst. So far, no one in the south has incurred the wrath of a dragon, so he may be sleeping soundly.”

“Ed’s original purpose for coming here was to hunt the Desert King Lizard, right? The reason he came back to the monster paradise was to hunt the Desert King Lizard and return. Is that still the case?”

Ed thought for a moment and answered Arebiju’s question.

“That’s still a priority, but I want to see if the dragon exists.”

Although he had a great desire to make a life-or-death decision, he also had a great desire to protect the three people who followed him, so he compromised with just checking.

Of course, the three people thought confirmation was crazy.
