Episode 230
Lee Han returned to the tower, imagining becoming the Emperor’s right-hand man and putting the skeleton headmaster in the dungeon.
‘Hmm.’
If you’re an ordinary student, you’d rather say, ‘I won’t be able to study this even if I beat you to death!’ ‘Send me to the punishment room!’ But unfortunately, Lee Han was the type of person who tried to do as much as he could even if he was given a ridiculous task.
A personality that only you know about and that digs your own grave.
‘Umm…’
Lee Han entered the private room and leafed through the book <Ancient Basic Necromancy – About Summoning the True Undead>.
Although there was a mixture of various languages and codes, starting with ancient script, the structure of the book itself was surprisingly standard. Thanks to this, I had a vague idea of what the book was about.
‘…no. ‘2/3 of this book is useless to me.’
widely!
Lee Han closed the book and was surprised.
The Ancient Basic Necromancy Book was a book that specialized in the third method of summoning undead mentioned by Professor Mortum from the basics.
Instead of simply summoning the undead, a powerful magic is applied to the corpse to raise it.
As it is a method that is not commonly used these days, the level of difficulty was high and the consumption of mana was enormous.
As such, 1/3 of the contents of the book were methods to amplify the magical power needed for black magic, and the remaining 1/3 were methods to save the magical energy consumed when using magic.
in other words…
Including this, 2/3 of the contents of the book were unnecessary.
‘It’s good that the amount has been reduced.’
For Lee Han, it was something to take a breather.
I already have a lot to study right now, but I didn’t want to increase the amount.
Moreover, when I glanced at it earlier, the methods were not very pleasant.
If you mix soil from a 17-year-old tomb and 11-year-old bone powder and put it in Cranten solution and drink it three times a day, you will gain magical power…
Training methods that make you think, ‘Oh, this is why black magic is not popular.’
Lee Han was thankful for the first time in a long time that he had a lot of magical power.
You don’t have to do that!
The remaining third of the book contained practical content.
All kinds of corpses, the characteristics of performing necromancy with those corpses, precautions when performing, etc.
The knight’s corpse contains high purity magic power in its bones, making it good for raising it upright. Knights are reluctant to give away the corpses of their comrades, so you should take advantage of the time when they are less careful during the new moon of each month…
Lee Han looked around the private room without realizing it.
…isn’t there anyone?
‘Someone might think it’s an old book, but the method is very complicated.’
But it wasn’t that I didn’t understand.
Necromancy, a method of summoning from the other world, was also strongly influenced by the reagents and materials used.
The more the bones or corpses of powerful and magical beings are used, the more powerful otherworldly beings are summoned.
Moreover, necromancy, which uses 100% of corpses to raise them up, is bound to be even more affected by corpses.
Therefore, wizards should get into the habit of carrying a minimum of bone fragments in their coat pockets, belt pockets, sleeve pockets, and inside boots. So that you will not be disappointed if an emergency arises. Situations where a body cannot be rescued occur more often than you might think…
‘There are more advantages than you think.’
Old-fashioned necromancy, that is, classic necromancy, had more definite advantages than expected.
Necromancy, a method of summoning, had limitations in strengthening the summoned undead.
There are limits even if a wizard tries to strengthen it in various ways as it summons beings from another world.
Maybe it would be better to summon a stronger being.
However, the classic necromancy method of making it yourself could be strengthened as long as you had the skills.
For example, if you cast a spell on a pile of bones to fight in the form of a skeleton warrior, it could be strengthened in a variety of ways, starting from the type of bone to various enchantments.
Plus, it was much sturdier.
Necromancy, which is a summoning method, once you are hit and reverse summoned, you cannot return from the other world until you recover.
However, in classic necromancy, if the wizard had enough magic power, he could swing his wand to restore it and raise it back up.
‘I understand why the skeleton principal asked me to learn, but…’
Looking at the strengths, I could understand why they asked me to become an actor.
Of course, that didn’t make the anger go away.
‘…the rest are all shortcomings.’
Consumes enormous horsepower.
It was a complicated magic structure that had to be handcrafted for each undead (in other words, it was like creating one artifact for each undead).
Even tactical operations require the wizard to concentrate and give individual orders.
Of course, as the magic level increases, magical power consumption can be reduced through various methods, magic can be cast more easily, and commands can be given more easily…
No matter how you think about it, the barrier to entry was excessively high.
‘Summoning the Skeleton Warrior, which begins in earnest in this book… is the 4th circle.’
The word was 4th Circle. Outside of school, if you were a 4th Circle wizard, you would hear people flattering you and saying, ‘Oh my gosh, Archmage.’
There are so many excellent magicians in Einroguard that people keep saying things like, ‘Learn 4-circle magic.’
Lee Han was truly angry all over again.
‘Isn’t it really too much for Professor Boladi and the skeleton principal?’
I would have pretended that I couldn’t win in just 2 or 3 circles and just rehearsed, but it was ridiculous to see 4 circle spells piled up.
Lee Han sighed and took out the bone fragments he had received from Professor Mortum.
“The spells that can be cast on the left arm are as follows… floating, spinning, trapping, striking…”
What can I do?
It’s an assignment so I have to do it!

“Why isn’t Wardanaz coming?”
Even though it was the weekend, the Blue Dragon Tower students were embarrassed to see Wardanaz not coming out of his private room after preparing a simple breakfast.

It didn’t matter whether Guyanando overslept or became undead in his room, but Lee Han was concerned even if he wasn’t seen for even a few hours.
The friends, who ate sandwiches filled with jam, cheese, smoked meat, and eggs between toasted bread, started to get anxious when Lee Han still didn’t come out.
“Didn’t you make Wardanaz angry yesterday?”
“Oh, no! Of course, Lee Han suggested it, but he said he didn’t want to go to the undead world. And Lee Han said he had a lot to study, so he even bothered me by asking me to play a card game! But you can do that much!”
“……”
“You scumbag. “It’s because of you!”
“Go quickly and apologize!”
“Ah… no!”
Kainando grumbled and knocked on the door of Lee Han’s private room.
After a while, Lee Han’s voice was heard.
-The door is open. Open it and come in.
“Lee Han. Those bastards are committing outrageous slander… Argh! Lee Han is being attacked by the principal!”
“!!!”
“Everyone come this way! “Wardanaz is under attack!”
The students, who were traumatized by being attacked by the undead within the tower, ran in haste.
It seemed a bit quiet, but on the weekend, the skeleton principal infiltrated Lee Han’s private room with an undead infiltration team.
It was truly a dirty move.
“Go right up…”
widely!
The princess held up her cane with a cold expression and dissuaded her friends.
“why?!”
“If you go in right away, you will be met with a counterattack! “I lower my body and use the stairs to do my magic!”
A follower conveyed the princess’s intentions to her friends.
It sounded plausible, so the friends ducked down at the bottom of the stairs and prepared their magic.
“Wardanaz! “I’m coming to help now!”
“now!”
The princess ran out from the front and cast a magic missile.
A blue light flashed and a chunk of magic flew away quickly.
Kang!
However, the attack was blocked by a water shield. Lee Han said, pulling one of the ears of Guy Nando who had fallen.
“Everyone stop. “You are not being attacked.”
“Whoa… Wardanaz!!”
“…no. “You’re under attack!!”
My friends were astonished.
Lee Han’s private room was filled with skeleton warriors.
“The principal didn’t send me, I raised him up. “It’s not enough to move yet, but…”
Lee Han tapped his cane. The skeleton warriors didn’t even move.
‘There’s still a long way to go.’
* * *
Lee Han had already learned <Bone Hand Summoning Magic> and <Bone Restraint Sphere Summoning Magic>, and was well-versed in the transformation and control of various elements.
“Bone. “Get shot.”
Sigh!
“Bone. Become a form of armor.”
Quack!
“Bone. Become a wall.”
Quad deuk!
Simple necromancy magic using bones presented in the book for basic training.
These were magics that transformed or fired bones in various ways, so they were bound to be familiar to Lee Han.
‘…but it’s still too easy?’
Lee Han tilted his head.
When I think back to how anxious I was about the fire spreading sideways while dealing with the fire element, bones were really easy.
‘Are bones naturally easy? Actually, it might be because I practiced with other elements in advance.’
If Professor Mortum had been next to me, he would have said, ‘Dark magic is not easy at all. It’s just your talent,’ but in the private room, there was only Lee Han.
Dark elements, negative energy, bone, and poison used in black magic were entered into the difficult axis, but were never easy elements.
When I went somewhere and said, ‘Bone is easier than the fire element,’ it wasn’t strange to hear people say, ‘You’re half out of your mind, like a warlock.’
“Then… come out now.”
Now that I had passed the various basic trainings, I had to begin full-scale skeleton summoning practice.
Before doing so, Lee Han brought in a skeleton warrior contracted from the undead world.
-■■■…
The skeleton warrior who was called out bowed down in front of Lee Han and showed respect.
Considering the difference in horsepower between the two, it was only natural.
Sharkan, who had been summoned first, yawned and hit the floor with his tail.
What does it mean to call such a low-level summon when you have yourself!
“okay. nice to meet. “I need your name…”
-■■!
The skeleton warrior was surprised and refused despite his low intelligence.
It meant that he didn’t dare to receive his name.
“no. I need a name to call you. “You are… Gonadaltes.”
-■■■■…!
The skeleton warrior denied it as if he was too embarrassed to accept it, but Lee Han was adamant.
“Gonadaltes. The reason I called you is so I can practice classical necromancy. “We need to create undead using bones and corpses, so it would be nice to have a textbook nearby.”
Just as you learn the basics by looking at and following completed artifacts when creating an artifact, it was better to look at and follow the completed skeleton warrior to create an autonomously moving skeleton warrior.
Gonadaltes, or rather the skeleton warrior, straightened his posture.
“thanks. “Then shall we begin?”
Three hours later.
Lee Han sat on the chair with a frown and glared at the piles of bones lying around.
‘It’s not that easy.’
It wasn’t that difficult to create the form of a skeleton warrior.
Because it was a slightly more difficult shield and armor.
However, making the warrior move flexibly was a separate problem.
Kwasik!
While trying to make it shoot a bow automatically, another skeleton warrior shattered itself.
‘It’s not that easy to get it back up every time it breaks down.’
Lee Han, who was thinking like that, paused.
‘If you think about it, you could just set up several of them from the beginning, right?’
I thought it would be better to rebuild several from the beginning rather than rebuilding one after another broke down.
Of course, a lot of magical power will be consumed, but that doesn’t matter, and the mental power and concentration consumed…
‘Since I was able to use dozens of water beads, I would be able to raise about 15 skeleton warriors. If it doesn’t work out, you can reduce it later.’
* * *
“got it? “They are failures, so they are not that great.”
“…Lee Han. “You know that wizards usually don’t carry fifteen summons on their own, right?”
