Boundless Necromancer

Chapter 283

283. Hope (1)

Acquisition of a new myth did not seem so far away.

‘Perhaps with a certain amount of faith and a certain amount of narrative, I’ll get enough myths.’

sure

Maybe I’ll get a myth in the middle of this special contract ordeal.

It was because the amount of faith absorbed by < Chaos >, one of the effects of Shinhwa’s < Enemy of Everything >, was greater than expected.

‘Even if the collection of beliefs and tales is a bit lacking, there’s a way to get both quickly anyway.’

Even if you don’t know the story, you have already acquired a lot of faith.

This time, it was the same even if it wasn’t the faith that was extracted through mythology.

To put it bluntly, right now I am being followed by numerous believers from different dimensions.

Therefore, faith had no choice but to accumulate rapidly in the heart.

That too in real time.

‘At least in terms of faith, supply and demand are smooth thanks to active activities in many worlds.’

A world of dystopia ruled by usurpers A world corrupted by an apostle serving an ancient deity A world of Earth nearly invaded by a god of battle, etc… ‘I

can feel it.’

I can feel the believers in different dimensions sending their faith now.

Is it even because of the fact that it has greatly revealed its direct influence on its followers?

As time passed, the level of faith that accumulated in his heart was also rising.

That is to the extent that it can be compared to the faith extracted from the myth < The Natural Enemy of All >.

‘Faith is certainly enough to supply and receive even during trials.’

However, Seolhwa did not feel a little uneasy.

It’s nothing else… In

a nutshell, the story is that the achievements I made myself become my strength.

If something is not done directly, the accumulation of tales does not take place.

But I still thought it would be okay.

‘Snowflakes… I’m sure I can get them to some extent through trials anyway.’

By suppressing the black dragon at once with force, a certain amount of tales must have been accumulated.

If so, wouldn’t it be possible to obtain a similar narrative against the remaining dragons?

Even the opponents who can build legends are not limited to dragons.

Because…

‘Maybe I can fill the story until I defeat the evil spirit.’

After all, the final boss of this special contract ordeal is decided to be an evil god.

That’s why I’m going to pack a lot of stories against the servants who serve evil spirits.

So, after organizing my thoughts, I took the black dragon and left the great forest.

…Well, it can’t be called a forest anymore because it exploded with a holy light imbued with the divine < Death >.

?Achievement ‘Destroyer’ has been achieved.?

?Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increased reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.?

?The level of reward obtained from the achievement has increased from [Grade C+] to [Grade B+] ?

?The skill ‘Symbol of Destruction (B+)’ is created.?

However, there were things I got thanks to thoroughly destroying the Great Forest.

?Skill – Symbol of Destruction (B+)?

?Proficiency – 0%?

?Basic Effect – All types of powers with destructive power learn ‘Special Destructive Correction’?

?Detailed Effects – Consuming a certain amount of mana to create a ‘divine It is possible to learn ‘Destruction Correction’.]

And…

“That’s amazing…”

The moment I confirmed the effect of the skill ‘Symbol of Destruction (B+)’ obtained as an achievement reward.

Before I knew it, I couldn’t help but feel the joy of my newly acquired power with twinkling eyes.

It was worth it.

At least this skill was worth feeling so satisfied with.

‘This is worth always activating during battle.’

A skill that overwrites compensation for all types of destruction…?

In fact, it was the same as meaning that most of the abilities that could be used in battle would become stronger.

Even by consuming mana, he was able to obtain something called ‘sacred destruction correction’.

In a battle with a god or an apostle, it had to be activated unconditionally without thinking.

‘I’ve acquired skills that can be used in earnest in battle.’

And as I was smiling like that, I heard a voice in my ear.

“Han Seong-yoon…

” It’s nothing else

…

Suddenly, the iron-blooded lord crossed his arms and said so with his eyes narrowed.

“How could you convince the black dragon so easily?”

And when I heard that, I felt that something had come.

‘As I guessed, it turned out like this…’

It was justified.

He immediately dominated the Black Dragon, known as the Apostle of Divinity, without taking much damage.

Even by completely breaking the opponent’s will.

So, the iron-blooded lord’s question could be said to be within the assumptions.

It’s just amazing that you didn’t ask until now and wait until the situation is over.

“My dear.”

The iron-blooded lord called me again as if to demand an answer.

But…

it’s a question that’s hard to answer nonetheless.

Looking straight into her questioning eyes, I smiled bitterly.

“Is this a question that must be answered?”

It means that you will inevitably avoid it.

“I am not forcing you to answer.”

However, the iron-blooded lord shook his head as if he would stop that.

“But if you don’t answer this, you won’t get what you want.”

And I knew right away what it was.

“It means I can’t earn your trust.”

“Yes.”

“…”

After being silent at the sound of not being able to gain the trust of the iron-blooded lord, she continued.

“Even if you don’t answer, I’ll be able to give you trust as a millennium commander.”

And…

“But at least you won’t gain the trust of the individual canary Lugfeld.”

As soon as I heard the iron-blooded lord’s words, I had to burst into laughter.

‘It seems inevitable that I will have to answer to some extent…’

It was justified.

Even if you cheat her anyway, if you don’t gain her trust, the reward for the special contract ordeal will go down.

If what you wanted from her wasn’t a candy-coated lie, you had to earn her trust.

If so, it is as if the answer has been decided what to do.

Gathering my thoughts, I looked at her and said.

“Then I will answer as much as I can tell you.”

The iron-blooded lord relaxed his expression slightly as if he was slightly relieved, and nodded.

“Still, isn’t that a rejection at all? So I won’t care too much.”

It was as if he was relieved that the situation didn’t turn out to be the worst he had thought.

“I have many questions to ask, but for now… I’ll ask you two big questions.”

“I see.”

“First of all, can you tell me about your true identity…?”

“That’s…”

“It can be done simply, so tell me the truth. I’m not satisfied with revealing my place of origin.”

If so, it didn’t matter.

“I am only a challenger from the Tower.”

“A tower…?”

“That’s right.”

“Which magic tower are you from? no. It doesn’t look that way. You are…”

Is it still before the Tower of Trials appears in this world?

As for the tower and the challenger, the iron-blooded lord was at a loss.

Not even one really.

Looking at the iron-blooded lord’s confused face, I spoke again.

“It’s not a lie. I am not from any magic tower. But the challenger from the tower is certain.”

“…isn’t it really a lie? ha. Your identity becomes even more mysterious.”

“I’m sure you’ll understand to some extent.”

“Then, now the next question.”

and.

“Han Seong-yoon.”

next moment.

“I will make sure to ask additional questions about your identity.”

The iron-blooded lord continued with his eyes sparkling.

As if he had caught evidence that he couldn’t take out or beat.

Even the power of the godhead was letting her know that her emotions were full of confidence.

‘no way…!’

I really figured out my identity with this…

“Are you an apostle serving a god related to dragons?”

…uh.

“…Whoop whoop whoop. okay. Seeing that hardened face makes me feel certain.”

The iron-blooded lord smiled confidently with his arms crossed.

“You can immediately tell where the power to tame the black dragon came from.”

Uncharacteristically for her, even the corners of her mouth twitched.

“Everything is a curiosity that can be solved if you are an apostle serving a god related to dragons.”

Actually…

“Now. how is it Sungyoon Han. Didn’t I guess about you very accurately? Whoop whoop.”

She was half convinced that this was the correct answer.

In fact, I wanted to tell him, ‘That’s right’, even if it was pitiful to see such a confident expression on his face.

But I couldn’t.

Because…

‘Maybe there’s no such thing as an accurate guess.’

There is no such thing as a correct guess.

“Whoops. Still, he hid his identity well. Sungyoon Han. So now it’s okay to tell the truth…”

So, I immediately replied while looking at the Sangvis lord’s face.

“no.”

even-

“Your guesses, from start to finish, were completely wrong.”

And that too in a very firm tone.

***

As soon as the iron-blooded lord heard the answer, he denied it as if he was shocked.

“lie…!”

I guess I didn’t know that none of the things I’ve deduced were

right … Didn’t get hit at all…? Are you kidding?”

Nothing changed though.

“I’m not kidding, I’m not lying.”

The moment when he informed the iron-blooded lord once again that he hadn’t really guessed the truth.

Before he knew it, the iron-blooded lord lowered his head with his face slightly red.

She groaned and pressed her temples as if her head hurt.

“Ugh. Hopefully this isn’t the case Where are you from?”

“Uh…”

“…No. It can’t be. I made a mistake. Sungyoon Han. This is the end of my question to you.”

“…”

‘…No. It’s true that I came from another world. I’m finally getting it right.’

So far, I haven’t been able to get anything right, and it’s only at the end that I get it right…

But I didn’t mean to point out that point, so I kept my mouth shut.

The iron-blooded lord grew sullen and soon fell limp and fell into despair.

And the black dragon, who quietly watched the scene, carefully asked a question.

[Geez… Owner… Come to think of it, I have something I want to ask…]

“?”

[ I want to know why you came here and why you are taking me. ]

“Ah.”

Then I realized that I almost forgot.

He was able to delay the end of the world by persuading and accepting the seven dragons that protect the world.

Only then did I recall the original purpose, and I immediately looked at the black dragon and explained the story roughly.

But contrary to what I thought, the explanation didn’t take that long.

That would be the case…

[ …Ah. understand. Evil spirits are trying to invade the world. That’s why I came to receive the qualification to protect the world. ]

It was because the black dragon noticed the situation right away even after hearing the brief explanation.

“I bet you knew about this situation.”

[Yes. The seven dragons in this world are beings with the qualifications of guardians. We already know that evil spirits are trying to invade. ]

“Then why were you doing this here without protecting the world?”

[That’s because the law of causality has not been established enough to protect the world. ]

“Ah.”

[It is also in line that dragons do not readily give up their qualifications as guardians. ]

“Are you saying you can’t qualify unless you come up with something that satisfies the causality rate…”

[Yes. As you know, dragons are the apostles serving the Dragon God. That’s why you’re half stepping into the realm of the Godhead. Constraints on causality cannot be avoided. ]

“Then you must have known about the tower as well.”

[ That’s right. ]

Before I knew it, the black dragon said as if it was collapsed.

[Maybe there’s a possibility that all of this is fake…]

Have you guessed to some extent while listening to the conversation with the Iron Blood Lord?

The black dragon seemed to have already guessed to some extent that this was a world amid trials.

I wasn’t sure yet, but at least it was clear that I was suspicious.

And at that, I smiled bitterly and shook my head.

“no. It’s not fake. So no need to worry.”

This place was a fake world reproduced by the tower.

However, it could be said that this was a white lie.

It was worth it.

The black dragon would be greatly shocked if he realized that he was a recreated being.

Even if it was a lie, it would be right to give the black dragon relief instead of shocking it.

‘It’ll disappear anyway after the ordeal, so there’s no need to tell the truth.’

and.

[ …If that’s the case, I’m glad. Well, it’s a place where evil spirits exist. All of this can’t be fake. ]

As if the lie worked well, the black dragon regained its calm.

[Then I must do what I have to do. You are an outside challenger. Now that a certain degree of causality has been satisfied, I will give you the qualifications to protect the world. ]

The moment the black dragon nodded and extended its black claw.

[This is the proof that you have been recognized as a guardian of the world. ]

Whoops…!

In the blink of an eye, energy like pure white crystals flowed into me.

?Achievement ‘Qualification to Protect the World’ has been achieved.?

?Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.?

?Reward levels obtained from achievements increase.?

?All stats increase. It rises by 10.?

And. As soon as

the “….”

system message announced the achievement, I knew what it was.

“Is this the qualification to protect the world?”

It was worth it.

The pure white crystal given to you by the black dragon is a kind of divinity.

Maybe if I collect all of these, I can acquire a new kind of divinity?

It looks the same as the divinity < Earth >, which was said to be obtained by gathering a certain amount of faith on Earth.

However, I soon realized that it was impossible to acquire a new divinity.

Because…

“The vessel is empty…”

It is because there is no substance in the pure white crystal-like divinity.

To put it in a nutshell, it was this.

There was little left in the pure white crystal that could act as a divinity.

That too is very neat.

‘Only a faint authority remains, and the power of the concept inherent in divinity is close to extinction.’

Perhaps this will no longer function as a divine power.

A different form from divinities such as divine < death > or divine < words >.

Most of the actual divinity-specific functions have disappeared.

Perhaps there is no such thing as a separate effect attached to divinity.

‘Even if I retrieve all the remaining qualifications from the dragons, I won’t be able to demonstrate my value as a divinity.’

It is only possible to raise a barrier that can protect the world with the faint authority left in the divinity.

And I could immediately figure out why it was like this.

It’s nothing else…

‘Is it because it’s a world reproduced by the tower?’

He realized that it was because it was a fake world where the divinity of the world could not be obtained.

Perhaps, if this were real, the one who persuaded all the dragons would have stepped into the realm of a god.

However, because he failed to do so, the iron-blooded lord had no choice but to be summoned to the tower without protecting anything.

But it will be different here.

‘I’ll have to protect this place at least.’

For the iron-blooded monarch, a longing is an opportunity to fulfill an unfulfilled wish.

So at least I knew what her wish was and had the intention of fulfilling it.

…I don’t know anything yet, except that she regrets not being able to prevent the end of the world.

Still, there was plenty of time.

‘I should slowly learn about the wishes of the iron-blooded lord.’

After thinking like that, I looked at the black dragon and asked a question.

“Do any of the other dragons know where they are?”

[ …uhh. To some extent, yes. Dragons know where each other is. They are the apostles of the same Dragon God. ]

“Can apostles know such things?”

[And if you want, you can also know some information. As for what kind of situation it is. ]

“That’s nice.”

Until now, I had heard from the iron blooded lord while moving to the black dragon’s location.

Currently, there are some dragons all over the world whose whereabouts are unknown.

Even if they found the dragon, they were hoping for reinforcements because of negotiations or a war of nerves.

If so, this is a cheat key that can save you a lot of time.

‘If I use it to find and persuade other dragons with a black dragon, I think it’ll be pretty good.’

You don’t have to waste time unnecessarily.

“Find out where the other dragons are now and tell them.”

By the way…

[There is a place where three of the dragons are gathered together. ]

Suddenly, an unexpected situation occurred.

“Three dragons gathered?”

[Yeah… I think we’re in the middle of a battle right now. I’ve been asked to join the fight as well. ]

“Even because of the battle?”

[ That’s right. ]

It’s nothing else…

[The situation is more serious than I thought. ]

An incident occurred to the extent that the three apostles who served the ancient deity had to unite and fight.

[Perhaps an evil spirit descended on the body of the apostle he raised.]

Advent.

“…under.”

The evil god who proceeded with the invasion of the world…

“…that’s interesting.”

One of the apostles here was given power.
