Money-grubbing Necromancer (239)
seizure
[Amazing achievement!]
[I have created a total of 10 Baal’s Spirits!]
[Exploring a new realm of alchemy!]
[You get the title, ‘You’re Talented’!]
[Obtain the title, ‘Master of Sleight of Hand’!]
[Slightly increases the chance of finding a new recipe!]
Choi Yu-na stared blankly at the message appearing before her eyes.
After Kim Min-woo gave me the recipe.
She was the one who consulted with Iris, who was in charge of assistant work, about making potions.
That’s understandable, since something as simple as a consumable item like the English version has a bizarre rank of Ancient+!
A non-equipped unit has this level?
It means that it is precious beyond imagination. In fact, this can be seen just by looking at the potions released on Earth.
At best, it’s rare or unique, and at really high levels, it’s rare to see a legendary item appear.
Ancient rank?
There was none.
So I recited the recipe for ‘Baal’s Spirit’ to Iris.
-Wait a minute. Baal?
“why?”
-Surely not, that Baal?
“Do you know anything?”
– You know! You idiot! You don’t even know Baal, do you?
I was able to see Iris, who was very excited.
Baal.
It was certainly a monster that sounded formidable just by hearing its name. Isn’t there a story like that on Earth too?
72 Stories about the devil.
But the story is just a story.
Even if there were demon-type monsters, there was no story of witnessing a monster as grand as the 72 demons.
Because the highest level demon known to have been discovered at the gate so far was none other than Balrog. A super high level demon that starts at level 700.
On the other hand, Iris’ explanation was different.
-I didn’t know humans’ field of vision could be this narrow. This Earth is really a remote place, isn’t it?
“What are you talking about? Speak so I can understand.”
―Let me summarize it simply. Baal is a monster that is much, much higher in rank than those Balrogs. Let’s look at it in terms of rank. If Baal is the president, Balrog should be at the level of the president’s bodyguard at best.
“… … Bodyguard?”
-Uh. They’re not like the Prime Minister or any ministers. They’re just bodyguards A, B, and C. If you just consider Baal’s level, it’d easily be over 10,000, right?
“Level… over 10,000? Is that possible?”
―Why is it impossible? Ha! Could it be that Earthlings are structured in a way that it is difficult to even surpass level 2,000? That is why their field of vision is so narrow. Earth is not the whole world, but rather a rural village on the outskirts.
“……really?”
―Really! What is a gate? Yeah. It’s basically just for making way between rural villages. So you humans don’t know at all that the world is so vast.
Choi Yu-na scratched the ball.
It’s been over two months since that witch came in as an assistant. Choi Yu-na also had some basic information about her.
That they came from another dimension.
She was an apprentice witch at the Eastern Witches’ Association. Then she became a servant of Merhen, Kim Min-woo’s summoned beast.
And, the scope of the ‘world’ that the witch speaks of is extremely broad.
However, even so, it was hard to believe that Baal was a crazy monster with a level of over 10,000. In other words, didn’t that mean that Kim Min-woo had caught a monster of that level?
“Does that make sense? Even if we estimate Minwoo’s level to be high, it wouldn’t be even 1,000.”
―So that person is a monster. I’ve caught a real witch and a Jackal in the level 500 range, including myself. But I never imagined Baal. That’s really Ancient+ level, right?
“That’s right.”
―If a mere Yeongdan is of that level, then it must be the Baal I know. But, if that’s true, it’s a bit strange… … .
“What’s strange?”
―But I don’t have any connections at all. I was quite popular in the Eastern Witches’ Association. I still keep in touch with my colleagues from time to time.
“… … Really? I’m a little jealous. I don’t have any friends.”
―That’s because you work all day long! Anyway! My friends told me whenever there was important news. But Baal died and there was no word? That’s a bit strange.
“You might not have known he was dead.”
– No. If a Baal-class entity dies, the witches’ guild cannot help but know. Because… … the demon world is a market where money is made. Witches are merchants. So they will hear about it somehow.
“I know the witches’ guild, but what if they controlled the information?”
―That doesn’t make sense. If Baal were dead, there would definitely be a tectonic shift in the Demon Realm. It wouldn’t just be a change in power. Baal is the supreme monarch who supports the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm would immediately shake violently and become chaos? How could you not know that? Wait a minute.
As she said that, Iris took out one of the beads. Then, when she put her hand on it, the bead began to hum.
―Yeah, yeah. It’s me. Iris. Do you have any news from the Demon World? No? Not at all? You’re not hiding anything from me? Absolutely not? Then… … .
Iris swallowed hard and asked.
-How is Baal doing these days?
Then, her eyebrows furrowed.
―Just a moment. I’ll call you later. Something urgent came up. Yeah, I love you!
She quickly put the unlit crystal ball back in and looked at Choi Yu-na with a serious face.
“Is that person you just contacted your boyfriend?”
– Hey, look! That’s not it! It’s called Nunupia, same-sex friend! In human terms, it’s called BFF! That’s not the point! There’s Baal, right?
“Yeah. Why Baal?”

―… … You’re alive and well?
“……what?”
– He’s alive. I’m sure of it. It’s not old information. It was just two days ago that Baal came to inspect the territory. It’s impossible to fake that momentum or anything…
Iris then spoke with a serious expression on her face.
-What? If you got the recipe, then you should have killed it.
“No, you don’t have to think like that. Maybe the hidden monster Baal himself gave you the recipe?”
– Yuna, you’re really stupid. Do you think that makes sense?
“Why doesn’t that make sense?”
―If there was a recipe that said you had to use your teeth, hair, and bones to make the ultimate spirit tablet, would you just leave it alone?
“Uhhh… … If that’s the highest spirit level, then can’t we just leave it alone? If you put in your own body material, it’ll copy the spirit level.”
―… … Really, if you’re stupid, you’ll be innovative… … Haa. I’ll summarize it easily. First, if you make a spell like that, only Baal will suffer. Because only his own power will be used to regenerate. Second, even if you make a spell like that, it won’t be effective for Baal himself.”
“What if you made it to give to your subordinates?”
―The last third, Baal is not a philanthropist. He is a cruel demon. No demon sacrifices himself to do good for others. Not even the most stupid of demons, the Gremlin!”
“… …Just the conclusion.”
―Master, your master seems to have killed Baal, but strangely Baal is still alive. This is my conclusion. It is so strange. Is this possible?
Iris muttered as she said that.
―Did you go back in time? Killed Baal from the past? That doesn’t make sense. Then it would have affected Baal in the present. Unless there is a space where time is disjointed… … But even a god wouldn’t be able to create such a space. What the heck?
As if faced with an unsolvable puzzle, Iris’s eyes gradually became dull.
‘Here we go again.’
Choi Yu-na sighed.
It’s not uncommon for researchers to get lost in their own musings, but I guarantee you that they won’t do it as often or as repeatedly as that witch did.
Anyway, I got some important information.
The fact that Baal is a monster that is incomparably more powerful than Balrog, and that Kim Min-woo is the monster that defeated it.
So, it was a precious recipe to begin with, but now that I know the information, I realize that it is a recipe so precious that I couldn’t even imagine it.
Gulp.
You can never make a mistake.
Now, I can’t save you again, or maybe not since Baal is alive, but anyway.
It’s an incredibly precious recipe, and with the ingredients I currently have, I probably won’t be able to make even 20 elixirs.
So Choi Yu-na spent the most passionate and careful 6 days of her life… … .
The result was the message you see before your eyes now.
‘Okay! I did it! I did it!’
I heard that Kim Min-woo was leaving tomorrow to attack the gate.
That’s why I wanted to somehow provide Baal’s spirit before that.
If possible, 10.
The reason was simple.
When 5 are consumed, the special effect ‘Baal’s Recovery’ is always activated.
This was because it had a crazy effect where if you consumed 10 of the highlights, one of Baal’s skills would be randomly generated.
Fortunately, she was able to meet the deadline, even if it was just barely.
‘I guess this will make us a little bit safer.’
Kim Min-woo had to stay alive. He was the recipe supplier, like rain in a drought.
Of course, he was a disaster to most alchemists… … .
That wasn’t Choi Yu-na’s part-time job.
She hurriedly went up to the first floor and spoke to Kim Min-woo, who was watching TV in the living room.
“Minwoo! I finished it! I finished it! All 10 of them!”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes! I didn’t fail at all! I did well, didn’t I?”
“Hey… … .”
Kim Min-woo let out an exclamation.
It’s an ancient+ level English dictionary.
No matter how much help the recipe gives you, your body moves on its own.
The failure rate was by no means low, especially for Earth-born alchemists who were not witches.
However, the reason I left her in Choi Yu-na’s care was to continue raising her in the long term.
In fact, it ended up producing better results than when I left it to the witch.
0 failures?
Even if she is the great witch Ananke… … .
‘No, if she was the Great Witch, it would have been a complete success… … .’
Still, it was clear that it was an overwhelming achievement beyond expectations.
I got the English translation from her.
[Baal’s Spirit]
[Rating: Ancient+]
[A spirit tablet made from Baal’s bones, teeth, hair, and materials from high-level demons. Eating several of them grants a special effect.]
[Effect 1. When consumed, increases all abilities by 50. Up to ten can be consumed.]
[Effect 2. Special effect when 5 are consumed – ‘Baal’s Recovery Power’ is always activated.]
[Effect 3. When all 10 are consumed, one of Baal’s skills is randomly generated.]
There are ten of these bright red letters in total.
I haven’t eaten yet, but I’m already full…
“Wow! It’s pretty!”
Na-ye, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at Yeong-dan with her eyes sparkling.
“It looks delicious! Wow!”
“Naye shouldn’t eat it. She hasn’t awakened yet.”
“Hmph. Then when will Naye awaken? I want to become a cool awakener like my brother… … .”
Uh uh… … .
well.
Originally, Naye was an unawakened character.
This was the result of playing Kim Min-woo hundreds, if not thousands of times.
It was also a special character whose awakening conditions were unknown to many users.
but…….
That doesn’t mean that it can’t be awakened. Everyone in the world has the conditions for awakening, and I won’t deviate from them either.
Moreover, crucially.
‘Alex, that sneaky little bastard said it.’
He said he saw the future.
In that future, Naye was incredibly strong. With one kick, all the monsters in the area were blown away.
‘There were signs.’
Kids love meat, but in Naye’s case, she loves it so much, so much, to a serious degree.
I guarantee it.
If a meat ban is imposed, there will be a sea of tears for a month, no, for a year.
There… … .
‘The strength is so strong that it is beyond imagination.’
That too in a state of unconsciousness.
‘What on earth are the conditions for Naye’s awakening?’
I don’t know.
We’ll have to find out little by little.
“I will wake up someday too. In preparation for that time, I should study hard, make good friends, and do all kinds of things, right?”
“huh!”
“What did the man say?”
“Everyone except my brother and father are wolves! Be careful!”
“Yeah. And watch out for that blonde guy too.”
“Yeah, yeah!”
I told you he’s a very smart younger brother.
After gently stroking Naye’s head.
I went into the room.
It was to consume English.
‘I hope the draw goes well.’
July 31st.
There was only one day left until the Demon World Ball where the monarchs gathered. There was some very sad news.
He used a nuclear bomb, rolled the dice of fate and got bad luck, and used both the necklace’s resurrection function and the ring’s miracle function.
Now, all he could trust was the crown of the Lord, his own skills, and his guts. Lastly, he could only trust the skills that came with this skill.
“Brother Baal. I believe in you.”
He’s the number one demon lord in the demon world.
You’ll be overflowing with good skills.
I swallowed the spirit with faith.
1 piece.
[Consume Baal’s spirit!]
[All abilities increase by 50… … .]
5.
[You have consumed a total of five of Baal’s spirit tablets!]
[warning!]
[Special situation!]
[‘Baal’ is currently alive!]
[Calculating… … .]
[Calculation completed.]
[You can craft the recipe by killing Baal and getting the recipe.]
[However, since the current target ‘Baal’ is alive, it is a completely contradictory situation.]
[Analysis results confirmed that ‘Kim Min-woo’ himself entered a special temporal gap, a ‘fragment’.]
[conclusion.]
[‘Stolen’ the abilities of the currently living Baal!]
[The ownership of ‘Baal’s Recovery’ has been changed to that of the target, ‘Kim Min-woo’!]
[Baal has lost his resilience!]
[Caution!]
[Baal will instinctively know who has taken his powers!]
“… … Huh?”
I just thought I would gain Baal’s powers here too.
seizure?
“Isn’t this so good?”
Anyway, if you want to move up the Balkan guy, you have to kick out the old guy who was occupying the position.
That old man has become weak?
It was the best news ever.
Kim Min-woo was delighted.
Even now, I haven’t eaten all 10 of them.
