#75. 19. The Magical Necromancer (4)
A heavy blow cuts through the air.
A dark sword extends out, piercing through the floor and ceiling, and slicing down the entire building.
The two-story wooden building looked like nothing more than a reed stalk in front of that formidable force.
Kwakwakwang!
Three shadows quickly emerged from between the rising smoke and collapsing debris.
Serati, holding the sword of speculation, gritted her teeth.
“shit!”
I’ve already hit the Golem Knight a few times, but all I’ve done is slightly scratch it.
It is so strong that it is difficult to break even if you hit it accurately, and it doesn’t even hit properly.
The unmanned swordsmanship embedded in the Death Armor blocks or deflects all of her attacks.
‘I just can’t see the answer!’
He is overwhelmingly stronger and faster than himself, and even has the advantage in technical aspects.
In every aspect, there was no area where Serati had the upper hand.
It felt like I was dealing with an aura user of a much higher level.
“Hahahaha!”
Tetsuras shouted in relief.
“Have you seen the true power of God?”
Serati ground her teeth as she frantically dodged the Golem Knight’s attacks.
“What kind of divine powers are you trying to attach to something like this? It’s just the level of a strong purple-level Auror user!”
To be honest, that Golem Knight is strong, but it’s still something that can be easily handled by the knight commanders of each kingdom.
It’s embarrassing to watch them talk about the power of God and all that with something like that.
But Tetsuras was confident.
“How foolish and blind you are! Do you not recognize the truth when it is right before your eyes?”
In fact, it was something that would shock even priests and magicians.
The Golem Knight’s combat power isn’t what’s important.
The very fact that magic and necromancy can be combined is an impossible feat, an evil miracle that transcends the logic of the Goddess.
It is not shameful to call it the power of God.
But there’s no way Serati would know that.
“Why are you trying so hard to show off when you know so little?”
Grumbling, she sent a magical message to Baros.
[What do I do now?]
[Well, well?]
Barros kept looking for opportunities on the other side.
Anyway, his sword can’t do anything to the Golem Knight.
Because if the Golem Knight is standing still and you beat it to death, it would take dozens of minutes to cut off one arm.
So I’ve been aiming for Tetsurasu since a while ago.
It would be common sense to target the summoned creature if it were the original target.
The problem is that even from a sorcerer’s perspective, it is common sense to protect one’s own body.
‘I never get a chance.’
I’ve tried to sneak up on Tetsuras several times since a while ago, but it was no use.
Each time, the Golem Knight swung his dark greatsword like a sword, forcing Baros to retreat.
Every time, a weakness is revealed that allows Serati to strike, but… … .
Taang!
Even if you accurately aim your sword at the weak point, it won’t be a problem because the body itself is so sturdy.
‘Shit!’
‘What do I do now?’
It was a situation where all sides were blocked.
Naturally, their gazes turned back.
Now the only one they can trust is the great commander of the past, Karnak.
[master?]
[Lord Karnak?]
Karnak had been just watching without any intention of fighting since a while ago.
“Wow, that works.”
“Wow, that kind of thing is possible too.”
“Who came up with such a spell? He must have incredible magical knowledge.”
He was watching the situation with an expression of interest while mumbling continuously, but from the perspective of someone who was risking his life, it was truly frustrating.
‘What the hell is that guy doing?’
An enraged Serati raised her voice.
[If you have a last resort, could you please write it down before we die?]
Just in case, Baros quickly continued speaking.
[If you really believe in Plan P, then change your mind! That’s not something I can do by taking over Serati’s body!]
Karnak smiled bitterly.
“I would like to see more, but I have to take care of it first. I will have to ask about the rest myself.”
Baros felt puzzled as he watched him, who had been acting calm since earlier.
No matter how I looked at it, it seemed like there was a corner of his face that he believed in, but I couldn’t figure out what it was.
Due to its nature, the Golem Knight cannot be dealt with with skill alone. It requires strong physical strength, magic, or command power.
While taking down a shield-wielding warrior can be done with skill alone, breaking the shield itself requires pure brute force.

Baros himself knew very well that the current Karnak did not have that much power.
[What on earth made you so calm? You said it was an unexpected situation?]
[Yeah, I didn’t expect that.]
Karnak raised both hands confidently.
[But I kind of thought something like this would happen. I learn too, right?]
In other words, it means that he had expected that ‘something unexpected would happen’.
[So this time, I prepared thoroughly. So that no matter what happens, something will work out somehow.]
[What is that?]
Karnak lowered both of his raised hands.
Darkness flowed from my fingertips and seeped into the floor.
[These guys.]
A dark stream flows across the earth, and at the end of it the dead rise again and stand tall.
A creepy voice leaks out from between the dry throat.
“My master… … .”
“Give me the order… … .”
Karnak smiled broadly and pointed.
“I have low commanding powers, though.”
Two corpses, clad in pitch-black robes, emanating vast darkness in all directions.
“Aren’t these people overflowing?”
Tetsura’s face hardened.
“… … Kale? Alt?”
That crazy guy just raised his dead subordinates as undead!
***
Dead eyes, bleached white, are revealed over blue skin.
A thick darkness continuously flows out from the two corpses.
Well, there was nothing particularly surprising.
This was a common occurrence when raising a corpse as a zombie.
Since the dead man was a necromancer steeped in fraud, it’s only natural that a lot of things would leak out.
But what happened next was clearly beyond Tetsurasu’s common sense.
Kale is now holding a small lantern in his hand. It is the lantern of the lost soul, the precious item that Karnak had been keeping for him.
“Arise, cursed warrior spirits… … .”
Blue lanterns began to bloom, and countless legions of ghosts began to rise from all directions.
“Ughh …
“Eu …
Alt also transforms into the form of a demon and swells in size. This is his specialty, demonization.
“Powers of Hell, come to me and become the power of chaos!”
Tetsurasu doubted his eyes.
Both of them used their special skills accurately during their lifetime.
‘oh my god!’
He is also a high-ranking commander. He knows full well how ridiculous that is.
‘You’re saying that you can control the spiritual power of a dead necromancer and make them use necromancy?’
Just talking about it makes me feel like biting my tongue.
Is it really possible for a human to use such complex magic?
But clearly, something like that was unfolding right before my eyes.
“Go, my servants… … .”
Kale, now a zombie, let out a gloomy voice.
“Strike your master’s enemies according to the command of darkness… … .”
Ghost soldiers swarmed the Golem Knight.
At the same time, the demonized Alt also let out a roar and flew away.
“Kuaaaah!”
Tetsurasu, who had come to his senses in a hurry, gave a new order.
‘Defeat those guys too!’
The Golem Knight moved his large body, swinging the sword of darkness.
Woohoo!
With every stroke of the sword, ghost soldiers are shattered and destroyed.
The giant demon is pushed back by the golem’s strength.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A loud explosion rang out and black ripples spread out in all directions.
Detsuras snorted as he watched the Golem Knight grab the demon’s neck and slam it into the ground.
“Huh! Even if you do that, nothing will change!”
Even if two people combined their strength while alive, they would be weaker than him. How could he become stronger after death?
Karnak has been doing some crazy stuff, but that doesn’t mean his methods are incredibly powerful.
It’s just a strange thing.
“Neither of them are my opponents anyway!”
Surprisingly, Karnak readily agreed.
“Oh, of course. But… … .”
A sudden, flying, fiery magic bullet hit the back of the Golem Knight’s head hard.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thanks to this, the Ghost Soldiers are regrouped. Even the demonized Alt, who was in a critical situation, is able to rise again.
It was because the attack came at such a perfect time.
“Are they the only ones here?”
Yes, there is no reason for Karnak and his party to sit back and do nothing just because they have joined.
Baros and Serati, who had caught their breath in the meantime, flew forward with great momentum.
“Now a little!”
“Things are going smoothly!”
With two more people joining in, the situation began to change rapidly.
First of all, Kale’s ghost soldiers were very useful.
Karnak gives orders to Kale, who then directs them to the Horn of the Lost Soul.
“My servant, aim for the author!”
As Karnak had intended, the ghost soldiers ignored the Golem Knight and flew in from all directions, targeting Detsuras himself.
Of course, Tetsurasu didn’t just sit back and watch.
“Hah! Protect your master!”
Control the Golem Knight and blow away all approaching ghost soldiers.
Because the Sword of Darkness is so powerful, not only does it graze, but the aftereffects alone can send dozens of souls flying away.
Boom! Boom! Puff puff!
And every time, just like before, a weak point is revealed on the Golem Knight’s side…
“Ta-at!”
With a burst of energy, Serati slashed the Golem Knight’s armor with a long slash using her sword.
Phage crackle!
Of course, this time, only a few cracks appeared on the armor. She still didn’t have enough power to break the Death Armor with one blow.
“But this time it’s different?”
Here’s another demonized Olt’s claw striking!
Kwaaang!
Even the Death Armor’s armor could not help but break after being hit again and again.
Tetsurasu frowned.
“this…….”
I didn’t think I could just rely on Golem Knight for defense, so I quickly prepared another plan.
“Dead, open your eyes and stretch out your hand of chaos!”
It was the Commandment Zone, the swamp of sinking dead.
Soon, a bloody darkness settled in and countless hands of hell rose up.
But, why hasn’t he deployed a command barrier until now?
Exactly!
As soon as Karnak snaps his fingers, the outstretched hands quickly retract.
‘Oh my! That guy has that kind of ability?’
That’s why I haven’t used the command barrier until now, but I forgot for a moment because I was in such a hurry.
Regretting his oversight, Tetsuras turned his attention back to the Golem Knight.
‘So this is the only magic I can trust.’
Meanwhile, the Golem Knight’s armor continued to break.
Before, Serati was alone, but now the demonized Alt has joined in.
If you just look at it, the attack power is doubled because the two of them are hitting each other.
Moreover, there are now many more attack opportunities than before.
“Oh, they’re doing well. Then I too… … .”
Baros continued to circle around Detsuras, keeping an eye on things.
He slips between Kale’s ghost soldiers and repeats an exquisite hit and run. Every time, his precious life is at stake, so he unconditionally calls on the Golem Knight to protect him.
“Protect me!”
Then the turn goes to Serati and Alt.
“This is your chance! Hit the golem!”
Tetsuras has no choice but to protect Golem Knight again… … .
“Hey, handle that side first!”
Then he targets Tetsuras again fatally.
“This is your chance! Hit him!”
“Protect me, protect me!”
“This is your chance! Hit the golem!”
“Eww! That f*cking bastard!”
This is the pinnacle of wheeled combat, completely devoid of chivalry.
Serati suddenly clicked her tongue.
‘Oh my, if someone saw us, they’d think we were villains.’
Now that I think about it, that doesn’t seem to be wrong.
Using necromancy to the fullest, controlling corpses and ghosts, and persecuting one person with the power of the many, if this isn’t a villain, then what is?
“Oh, oh my god!”
With his teeth chattering, Tetsuras continued to raise his mana and command power.
“To this extent!”
I overcame the burning pain in my brain and injected mana and command power into the Golem Knight again and again.
“Do you think the power given by Tesranak will be broken?”
Perhaps because of that near-frantic activity, the Golem Knight was still holding on, even though it was in tatters.
Karnak clicked his tongue.
“Oh, that’s really solid.”
Baros dropped a message.
[What should I do? It still lacks a lot of destructive power.]
[If the destructive power is not enough… … .]
Karnak smiled broadly.
Even at the current level, there was a method that could produce powerful destructive power.
[This will do.]
He sent out orders through a mental wave.
“Go, my servants.”
Kale and Alt suddenly run towards the Golem Knight and immediately throw themselves at him.
Naturally, at that very moment, the Golem Knight spits out a blade of darkness, piercing through the two necromancers.
“Body explosion.”
A thunderous explosion shook the entire slum.
Kwaaaaaaaah!
