Damn Necromancer (94)
devil(1)
“Märchen.”
-huh.
“Do you feel any strange energy from the beads over there?”
At those words, Marchen stared at the black bead.
That too for a while.
She tilted her head.
―… … I don’t know. I can’t read what’s inside.
“Cedric and you?”
-Me too.
“is it.”
I stared at the beads.
If you touch it, item information will probably appear. There was a reason why I didn’t touch it right away.
‘There could be trouble.’
Isn’t that what happens when you watch a movie? Things like falling into a strange mental world while touching the by-products of an evil monster.
It’s a monster that spreads the experience copy bug with just one bead like that.
There is no law preventing something like that from happening.
“hmm… … .”
―Minwoo. Do you want to check that?
“I think I need to touch it.”
-If you’re really worried, you can try sealing it.
“seal?”
-huh. I don’t know what level the person who made it is, so I don’t know if he can do it for a long time… … .
“That’s enough.”
Even if it is sealed, the item description can be viewed. What I was curious about was the information about that item. If you look at it and feel uncomfortable, just throw it away.
‘There’s nothing to put in the inventory.’
Normally, if you put something in the inventory, there won’t be any problems.
‘If it’s from a foreign media, there might be a problem.’
Is this really something made up by foreign media?
If you’re unlucky, you could put it in your inventory and have its location tracked. Even if inventory was one of the laws of the system, it was unclear whether it could prevent the exploration of foreign-level beings. It was better to just throw it away than take that risk.
‘of course… … .’
This is only true if it is actually created by a foreign media outlet.
Anyway.
Since I didn’t know the level of the being who created it, there was no harm in paying attention.
-I’ll seal it.
Marchen stretched out his hand.
Mana flowed out.
Soon, her mana began to surround the black bead.
The energy from the bead and her energy were intertwined like a snake.
Soon after, Marchen’s mana completely consumed the orb.
―Minwoo.
“huh?”
―It doesn’t count that much.
“that?”
-huh. I don’t think there’s anything to worry about, right?
is it?
I nodded and picked up the marble.
Item information came to mind.
[Replica Orb (Temporarily Sealed)]
[Grade: Special]
[It is a bead that is an elaborate replica of something. The current charge is almost completely exhausted. It is currently temporarily sealed by Marchen.]
[Effect 1. Can be recharged through prayer.]
[Effect 2. Baptism can be performed through charged power.]
[Effect 3. The baptized target gains more experience.]
[Effect 4. When durability runs out, it is destroyed.]
‘… … ‘Replica beads?’
Minwoo Kim tilted his head.
Didn’t this guy clearly say that he got this through prayer?
‘Then you prayed and a clone came down?’
It’s a bit strange.
Wouldn’t your faith decrease if you received a replica?
‘Anyway, I roughly understand the structure… … .’
Recharge with prayer and baptize.
The format was simple.
Of course, I had no intention of actually praying just because it was simple.
‘I knew what was going to happen.’
Saying that you want to gain some experience is absolutely crazy.

‘First of all, I understand why Marchen said that.’
At best, it’s a replica.
How strong is the power it contains?
That may be why it was easier to seal than expected.
“How long do you think you can keep this seal?”
―If you put your mind to it, you can live your whole life? easy.
“Then will you do that?”
-huh.
Marchen stretched out his hand.
The temporary seal status of the bead has been changed to permanent seal status. With this, the beads will remain sealed.
‘Then I guess we can just keep it for now.’
It didn’t seem like there would be any use for this bead.
pray?
Shouldn’t someone else do it for you?
If the guy you’re going to kill is praying for you, it’s a pretty picture.
‘The problem is baptism.’
I’m not sure if I can receive this myself or not.
This is an item that requires further analysis.
I put it in my inventory.
In addition, I packed various items. Han Baek-gil’s equipment was very good.
This guy’s full setup almost exceeded the price of the rest of the S-class awakened item setups.
In addition, I brought various light attribute items.
If you add up all the prices, it seemed like it would easily exceed trillions.
‘It’s a pity that they are all job-specific items… … .’
Assassins, swordsmen, wizards, warriors, etc.
The majority of equipment was for mainstream occupations. In other words, the neck was an item that could not be worn.
It was the sadness of non-mainstream occupations.
‘The accent is also bad.’
For Kim Min-woo, the most valuable accessories that could be obtained from awakened people were class accessories.
Things where the only requirement is level.
It was a great item that even the neck could wear.
But, these guys.
As if they were all high-level awakened people, they were all wearing accessories exclusive to their profession.
‘This is normal.’
Public and professional accessories.
If both are of the same level, the job accessories are more effective.
It’s natural.
Shared accessories often come with options you don’t need.
On the other hand, what about job accessories?
Only the options necessary for that job are clearly listed.
Naturally, accessories specific to popular occupations are much more expensive than common accessories. Of course, Minwoo Kim also wanted to get such an accessory.
‘The problem is that there are no properties for sale.’
So, the remaining space was just surrounded with appropriate accessories.
“Cedric. “Come to work.”
-Did you call me?
“Put it on.”
He handed me a ring.
[Sorn’s Ring]
[Grade: Unique]
[Restrictions: Melee occupations, level 200 and above]
[This is one of the rings worn by the Minotaur King Thorn.]
[Effect 1. Foot stomping (A) can be used]
[Effect 2. Strength, Agility +20]
Cedric looks at his face and the ring in silence.
“What are you doing, I’m not accepting it.”
―… … Sure.
He took the ring and put it on his bone finger.
‘This guy has a useless profession as a dragon knight.’
If necromancers are a rare species, dragon knights are just an endangered species.
No matter how many Gate Hunter jobs there were, the Dragon Knight job didn’t even exist in the first place.
The only thing he could use was an item that collectively referred to these close-range occupations. Nek is an item that cannot be worn because it is not a close-range occupation.
at that time.
―Minwoo.
A voice came from next to me.
Marchen was looking this way.
-I am?
“Uh, wait a minute.”
I looked through my inventory.
Coincidentally, there was a ring that I got from Yulonggang.
[Blue Magic Ring]
[Grade: Unique]
[Restrictions: Wizard, level 150 or higher]
[This is a ring with a beautiful gem. I think it would be useful for wizards.]
[Effect 1. Casting speed reduced by 10%.]
[Effect 2. Magic Power +30]
‘The great mage is also a wizard, right?’
Just by looking at it, it seems like a top compatible job.
The only thing that could be handed to Marchen was this wizard-specific ring.
‘Because I have to use it exclusively for casters.’
Necromancers were one of the independent professions that were not wizards.
Broadly speaking, it belongs to caster.
“There are some leftovers.”
-really?
“receive.”
I handed the ring to Marchen.
While I was making equipment specifically for ghosts, I learned something.
Originally, ghost-type undead such as specters and banshees could only wear special equipment.
‘He’s not like that.’
Marchen was different.
Even ordinary equipment could be worn.
‘Well, it looks like a human from the outside.’
Who would feel like Marchen is undead? Looking at her appearance, she was just an ordinary foreign girl.
Banshee Queen.
It seemed like there were no such restrictions due to the high rank.
So I just got someone to wear it and set it up. The ring will also be wearable without any special work. Marchen took the ring and placed it on his index finger.
―Thank you, Minwoo. I like this.
“I’m glad.”
Since I need to set up accessories for my summons whenever possible, I thought I would give them one by one if I had any left.
at that time.
[The devil who will give the reward has been selected!]
[The devil is coming!]
A huge demonic shape appeared before my eyes.
[One of the demon lords, ‘Andromalius’, appears!]
‘Demon Lord?’
Minwoo Kim tilted his head.
I have run at this gate a few times in the past. At that time, the maximum demon score obtained by activating the gimmick was around 90 points.
‘How much despair do you bring to the other person?’
It is one of the important requirements for determining scores. The characters I played in the past were not able to bring that level of despair to the enemy.
The reason was simple.
Because he wasn’t as overwhelmingly strong as Kim Min-woo is now.
What was the reason for breaking in in the first place?
I came in because I thought it was worth a quick bite. Although we won that time, we suffered much more than this.
Whereas now.
‘I did score a lot of points.’
Every one that came out, I slit their throats in less than ten seconds. At least it took a while to get there,
The same thing happened to him when he died, experiencing extreme despair.
That’s because he sold his soul and was punished before he could even do anything.
‘At 90 points, you got a high-level devil, right?’
As a reward, I received a unique grade weapon. I remember selling it because my job was different.
But this time it’s a demon lord?
This is my first time seeing this guy again.
‘Do you want to give me something good?’
I stared at Andromalius. A man who looks like he has a snake wrapped around one hand. The guy was also looking this way.
[The effect of ‘Taking Vulcan’s Eye’ is activated!]
[I feel quite intimidated by the ‘devil’ in front of me!]
Vulcan’s effect seemed to work even on demon lord levels.
-Hoo… … This is it. I was wondering why I was called in out of the blue, was this worth it?
Andromalius smiled and bowed.
-Nice to meet you. My name is Andromalius, and I am the 72nd ranked former Demon Lord.
‘Demon Realm.’
It was one of the stages that appeared very rarely at the gate.
There.
‘Isn’t Balkan also a demon from the Demon World?’
I looked at him intently.
“Do you know a Balrog named Balkan?”
-Oh, you mean that idiot? I know it very well. Because it was very famous at one time.
Andromalius said with a grin.
―Anyway, it’s really mysterious. I’m really curious as to how you achieved such accomplishments. Why don’t we try doing some business with each other?
“transaction?”
―I can give you my power.
“What is authority?”
―Aren’t you curious about the culprit of something? Don’t you want to get your stolen items back? If that’s not enough, what about the power to find hidden treasures?
“What do you want?”
―I want you to play as my player.
“… … player?”
-Hmm. Where should I start explaining? great. Let’s start with the basics. A battle of rankings takes place in the Demon World. 72 It’s a ranking battle involving demon lords.
“Aren’t they fighting each other directly?”
-haha. If that happens, many demons will die. Wouldn’t the cost be too great for just deciding on a ranking?
“so?”
-We decided to hire a representative. The higher you go, the more important mercenary skills become. Unless one person has overwhelming power.
“So the agents get together and decide the rankings?”
-That’s it! Of course, you don’t have to choose just one agent, but the overall framework is similar anyway.
‘Hmm.’
Kim Min-woo thought for a moment.
The power of Andromalius.
It seemed a bit useful.
Especially when it comes to finding hidden treasures.
however… … .
‘I play as a player just to get that… … .’
I feel a bit regretful?
First problem.
Is it a good thing to play as a player who is only ranked 72nd?
Second problem.
How much is your current worth in the demon world?
don’t know that
If you’re not careful, you could end up selling yourself at a low price.
There is a proverb that comes down from ancient times. In any case, don’t believe what the devil says.
The devil is not the devil for nothing.
I didn’t know what kind of trick that Andromalius, with his kind smile, was going to throw at me.
So for now.
“Would you like to start with a 200-point reward?”
Instead of trading, I should get compensation first.
