Boundless Necromancer

Chapter 313

313. Qualification test (4)

Kazura.

An apostle who serves one of the ancient deities, the Demon God.

I couldn’t help but frown when I saw the middle-aged butler who appeared before my eyes.

‘What is this again?’

He would be like that too… To

think that the demon’s apostle would suddenly appear as soon as he killed the god of remorse.

I couldn’t understand why the demon worshiping apostle had appeared here and for what purpose.

‘Even if the devil suddenly suggested it, I can’t guess much…’

It’s even more so because I’ve never really pretended to be in a relationship with a demon.

It was a temporary cooperative relationship with the Demon God we met in the giant tree labyrinth, and we didn’t have a bad impression of each other.

It’s just that the demon’s intentions themselves are difficult to read, so they don’t feel very welcome.

But if that’s not the case, there’s no way the Demon God would bother sending an apostle to do harm, so the apostle in front of him probably came to recommend a real proposal.

If so, the possibility that it is a trick is scattered.

[It’s a qualification test. ]

Then, I quietly looked at Kazura and asked a question.

[Is that a suggestion that the Demon God recommends because he is me? ]

[ No. Not so. …You only have the right to take the qualification test when you kill six high-ranking monarchs in the Pandemonium. ]

[ …. ]

[ It doesn’t matter that you are a challenger from the Tower. It was only because the demon god met the conditions that he recommended a qualification test. ]

[ …I think you know what it is. ]

Only then did I find out what this was all about.

‘I can understand the situation to some extent.’

Contrary to what I thought, the Demon God did not offer me a personal proposal.

-If you kill 6 high-ranking monarchs, you will be qualified to challenge the current supreme ruler of the Pandemonium, Baal-sama.

I had heard from Alton, now a cold corpse.

If you kill 6 or more high-ranking monarchs, you will be eligible to challenge the position of the highest monarch.

So, I’m guessing this is more like a kind of qualification obtained by killing high-ranking lords rather than a personal proposal from an ancient deity, the Demon God.

[This means that the Demon God did not give a separate order, but only suggested it because the conditions were met. ]

In fact, Kazura nodded and replied as if he was right.

[ That’s right. ]

Kazura continued speaking politely.

[So far, many people have qualified for the challenge, and most have refused the Demon God’s qualification test. ]

[ …. ]

[ So it doesn’t matter if you step away from here. ]

[ In effect, you’re saying I’m going to step down. ]

[ Yes. Most of the ones I’ve seen so far are like that. …And above all, you are from the Tower. ]

[ So? ]

[The Tower must have judged that more than this was a useless waste of power anyway. So I don’t even think you’ll take the qualification test. ]

[ That sounds really interesting. ]

Kazura probably thinks that the Tower cares for me as one of its strength…

The Tower didn’t care for me as much as he thought.

waste of power?

No way.

‘If I really thought it was a waste of power, the tower would have given me only trials that I could handle.’

So far, I have been close to death several times.

Perhaps if you were unlucky, it wouldn’t be strange if you actually died a few times.

I just survived because I had at least a trump card in whatever form.

And considering the case of the future that the god of proof said, the tower would not change this policy.

‘At least the tower intends to push me to the limit until it achieves its goal.’

So

… ]

Until then, wouldn’t it be more efficient for me to push myself as much as possible according to Top’s idea?

[I’ll accept. ]

Currently, not much time remains until a new ascension takes place.

[ So let’s move on quickly without wasting time. ]

Perhaps you can find out in the qualification test for the position of supreme monarch.

“The god of transcendence smiles at the thought of the new power he will gain.

” ]

From now on, what kind of ancient godhood will be reached by ascension?

***

Tsutsutsu…!

?The True Blood Demon Sword (A)’s exclusive effect, ‘Blood Feeding’, is activated.? ?

Absorbs a large amount of blood, increasing the item’s grade to S-class (85000/85000).?

?Rating The number reaches the point where growth is possible, and the item grows from S-rank to S+-rank.

”

The Blood Demon Sword, which absorbed the blood from the corpse of the god of remorse, achieved growth.

Is it because of the fact that he has constantly obtained blood through the Cradle’s arena and other warlocks?

Suddenly, the level of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword grew rapidly and reached the S+ level, and accordingly, the blood flow from the Blood Heaven Demon Sword also increased.

Not even that.

‘Thanks to the scabbard obtained on the 21st floor, the actual performance has increased several times.’

The scabbard of a swordsman who pursued mystery (SSS-).

A kind of support item that allows B+ grade or higher sword items to grow every 48 hours was steadily improving the performance of the blood demon sword.

This is the same for the Fallen Sword, but…

Compared to the Blood Heaven Demon Sword, which accelerated its growth by preying on the blood of countless people, honestly, it was lacking.

‘Still, the broken sword is steadily raising its rating, so it will be able to grow soon.’

The moment he finished thinking like that and looked at the Blood Heaven Demon Sword with anticipation.

?True Blood Heaven Demon Sword?

?Rating: S+?

?Reaction speed +197%?

?Attack speed +207%?

?Magic response +301%?

??Current < Absolutely Undestroyable > status applied ? A famous

sword that was once one of the treasures of the blood demon religion of Murim.

?

Can activate blood energy.”

?Blood energy is indestructible and temporarily improves cutting power.? ?

When challenger Han Seong-yoon uses it, the exclusive effect ‘Blood Eating’ can be activated. .?

?Blood Eater, when you designate and kill an opponent with the Blood Demon Sword, absorbs the opponent’s blood into the blade to increase overall item performance and achieve random skill imprints.

” Up to three, and the imprinted skill does not cost anything other than the cooldown.?

‘As expected.’

As expected, the Blood Heaven Demon Sword had grown significantly this time as well.

To be honest, the merits of ‘Swordsman’s Scabbard (SSS-) in Pursuing Mystery’ should be great, but I had no choice but to be satisfied with this.

After raising the level of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword, it would be right from a balance point of view to newly increase the performance of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword.

Only then did I turn my head and look at Kazran.

[ …I don’t understand. ]

Kazran mumbled with his eyes closed.

[Why don’t you refuse the qualification test? ]

Suddenly, his eyes were filled with curiosity.

[Among the challengers that the tower has raised, monsters like you are rare. ]

[ …. ]

[ At least among the successful ones, we can now name the strongest of the previous challengers, so why is the Tower wasting energy like you? ]

[ …. ]

[ Among the lightsaber system and the failures, there will be no one to oppose except for that monster. I really don’t understand what you’re asking for. ]

[ That’s it, I don’t know. ]

And listening to Kazran, I was able to get some information.

‘Among the challengers raised by the tower, I am close to being the strongest.’

It wasn’t that interesting because it was information I had guessed anyway.

In fact, I already knew deep down that I was close to the strongest among the challengers to the tower.

However, it was true that I was a little surprised about the lightsaber system and the fact that it was a failure.

I never thought that even though I had risen to the level of a higher deity, a deity subordinated to a tower like the lightsaber system could be said to be equal to this one.

‘At that time, I didn’t know because it appeared with a small light, but I thought it was that much.’

But there was also more interesting information than that.

‘It’s a failure.’

Among the challengers raised by the tower, there are those who are called failures.

And that failure was on the level of being comparable to me and being called a monster even by someone like Kazran.

In a word, it must mean that there is a monster-like existence among the challengers who went against the tower’s will.

…In other words, the fact that it was a failure meant that it had reached the level of an ancient deity, and if so, there was an existence that could be guessed at.

‘It’s interesting.’

It was only now that I began to feel that something was starting to take shape.

‘It’s close to being able to see the end of the tower now.’

It was worth it.

Although the number of floors that have climbed the tower is still low, the level is not low compared to the top floor.

That’s why even Kazran, an apostle favored by the ancient deities, spoke like that.

Even if I achieve ascension this time, I will be able to truly set foot in the world of ancient gods.

‘Then I can really see the end of the tower.’

That is why the qualification test is important.

The rewards to be obtained in the process of obtaining the position of the first Lord, Baal, will not be small.

Even if it becomes a desperate fight where I might die, that would be the case.

It was about risking one’s life anyway, but now that I’m used to it, I had to do it all the more.

But Kazran didn’t know that, so he couldn’t easily shake off the confusion.

[Why…]

And I said it as if I was dumbfounded.

[I think I’m wondering why the tower sent me to the qualification test…. ]

[ …. ]

[Then, let’s ask the other way around. ]

[ What is that…? ]

[ Why do you think that taking the qualification exam is a waste of energy? ]

I didn’t say it with the intention of smirking at Kazran.

I only asked because there was information I could glean from Kazran’s story.

Perhaps with this, he could get a clue to read the tower’s thoughts in depth.

In reality, as soon as Kazran was asked that question, negative emotions shone in his eyes, and his lips suddenly moved with anger in his voice.

[That’s of course…]

Now it’s to the point where I feel cold.

[ …no. I made a mistake. This isn’t what we’re talking about here. ]

However, Kazran trembled and shook his head, pressing his lips together.

[It’s the tower’s thoughts anyway. You, who are below it, should know better. ]

And just like that, Kazran calmed down and said with cold eyes.

[ …rather than that, we’re now ready to move. ]

Hard-.

In an instant, a purple portal opened where there was nothing, and Kazran politely guided them there.

[Go away. ]

It’s nothing else…

[To the place of the qualification test where the first monarch Baal is. ]

The end of the special class ordeal was approaching before anyone knew it.
