I Raise a Skeleton Episode 339
Apophis (1)
Whew!
The area across from the Peach Blossom Land was desolate.
A vast, undeveloped, natural plain.
My men and I moved here over the course of about two days.
“after.”
I climbed to the highest point there.
I exhaled, feeling the cool temperature all over my body.
okay.
Are you saying that you’re going to summon the ancient creature, Apophis?
“professor.”
Arin came next to me and closed her eyes tightly.
After a moment, her lips opened.
“Yes, I did a rough calculation. I think this place will be fine for the paradise garden.”
“okay?”
Apophis.
I’ve heard about him from Arin so many times.
A giant snake measuring a whopping 1,110 meters in length.
It wasn’t as long as a dragon, but it was still a huge length even just by looking at the numbers.
The height of Lotte World Tower located in Seoul is about 555m, so it is exactly twice that length.
The average length of a car is about 4.5m, so it’s about the size of 246 cars lined up.
You’re trying to summon that horrible guy right before your eyes.
“Honestly, it is a dangerous act. Summoning a constellation-level being and fighting it directly… … .”
“Isn’t it a constellation?”
“Hey, professor.”
Arin shook her head.
“Even constellations are different. Just as not all humans are the same.”
“Apophis is much stronger? Last time, he was just as strong as a dragon, you say?”
“That’s the problem. Dragons are the highest-level creatures among the constellations. And they’re ancient dragons, too. Have you forgotten that you fought the index dragon last time?”
but.
Jisoo Ryong was really scary.
‘but.’
The me then and the me now are clearly different.
“so.”
I looked at Arin.
“What are our chances of defeating Apophis?”
“Honestly, I’m not sure about that. Maybe 50%, half and half?”
“really?”
Is that all there is to it?
“Assuming that the professor uses the power of the weapon he has, it’s 100%, but there are many variables other than that. Hmm, looking at the effectiveness of the weapon set I received this time… … . It seems like it’ll crush them again.”
Arin tilted her head with an expression that said she didn’t know.
Hoo.
That’s right.
Hearing these words makes me more competitive?
Anyway, the decision has been made.
I plan to measure my level through Apophis.
To be exact, I plan to train through that guy.
What if I win by a narrow margin?
Until you win easily.
I guess I’ll have to summon it repeatedly.
‘The guy is a constellation. A constellation close to the Elder Dragon.’
On the other hand, I’m still only SS-class, ranked 4th.
But it’s usually not SS-grade.
Because I have the constellations Yuisa and Demir under me.
“Everyone.”
Hurrruk!
I shook my arm and created a spear.
“Get ready.”
This time, I planned to give it my all without hesitation.
Thud, thud, thud!
I summoned all eight of my subordinates, except for the unawakened Bone One and Bone Twelve.
Those subordinates, too, called their own subordinates, and called them again… … .
Thud, thud, thud thud!
like that.
It didn’t take long for a huge army of skeletons to appear in front of me.
Squeak, squeak!
Numerous skeletons are positioned in an orderly manner, each in its own place.

That’s what’s great about skeletons.
That means there are no emotions.
They are not afraid of any opponent.
I don’t feel any emotion called fear.
So there is no need to make a fuss or wonder about the situation.
Just prepare as ordered.
“For the sake of the lord! Lower your posture!”
At the sun’s command.
Phew, phew!
A large number of skeleton spearmen held their spears!
“Forest Clan. Take your place under the protection of the forest!”
At Eldrin’s command, skeleton archers took up positions in the bushes.
Kaden and Arin’s subordinates too.
Instead of being densely packed, they were spread out in a wide open field.
“Swing the hammer!”
“Hahahaha! Make a great monster weapon!”
“Build a tower!”
Dmir’s men swung their hammers.
What’s surprising is that they are all masters of alchemy.
Clang, clang!
Each of them began to rapidly create large weapons using the rocks and trees around them to extract metal.
One-shot, trebuchet, ballista, etc.
They looked similar to the siege weapons mainly used in the Middle Ages.
Danawa’s subordinates also spread out everywhere.
finally.
“Spiritualists!”
Yuisa raised both hands reverently.
“Summon the contracted spirits!”
Woohoo!
Wheeing!
Doors opened everywhere.
In the meantime, countless low-level, mid-level, and high-level spirits began to pour out.
‘okay.’
I was impressed.
‘This is it.’
The reason I decided to fight Apophis.
It’s all thanks to Yuisa.
Because I wanted to see Yuisa’s subordinates create an army of spirits.
Of course, her subordinates did not handle all four elements like she did.
The majority were of one element.
There were also skeletons that occasionally used two or three elements.
Oh, is this random?
And finally.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Chorus!
Kururururung!
Wheeeeeeing!
The great spirit kings who can exert 20% of their power have been summoned.
Selion, Elam, Noah, and Sylphid.
“Wow, that’s amazing?”
“It almost feels like the spirit world has been moved here?”
“Is this a miniature spirit world?”
– Grooooooooooooooo!
The expression on the faces of those great beings was clearly one of ‘joy.’
Indeed, they seemed to be a people who liked everything except those in the spirit world.
“ruler.”
I laughed.
Now the preparations are complete.
“scale.”
“Yes, professor.”
Arin nodded at my call and slammed her cane down on the ground.
at the same time.
Woohoo! An incredible amount of magical power enveloped her, and at the same time, numerous hieroglyphs were carved around her.
The manifestation of ancient magic!
[‘Eloise Arin’ uses the skill, ‘Summon Apophis’ (SSS-grade).]
Salmon Apophis.
A spell that literally summons Apophis!
Kugugugugugugu… … !
That moment.
The bright world began to turn dark.
The warm sunlight became a faint shadow and filtered through the trees.
at the same time.
Oh my god!
The black sky opened its mouth.
– Shhh! Shhhh!
The sound of waves crashing could be heard from the ends of the sky.
The sound of an evil snake clicking its tongue.
Boom boom!
My heart was pounding.
This isn’t running because you’re scared.
excitement.
My blood boiled.
yet.
Cookies, cookies …
Red eyes flashed among the gaping sky.
It was the appearance of the terrifying serpent, Apophis.
* * *
– Shhhh!
The eyes of the guy who appeared were filled with an evil aura.
Thud!
A sharp poison that seemed to cut through flesh flowed from its mouth, melting rocks and killing trees.
“Oh my… … . They are two species that can’t get along.”
Eldrin frowned.
Anyone who kills a bush is an enemy.
An enemy that must be killed.
“All, fire.”
Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The skeleton archers began their attack.
In line with that.
“let’s go!”
“Oh my god!”
The skeletons, each with their weapons drawn and waiting, began to attack simultaneously.
Melee attackers were lifted into the sky by the wizards’ levitation magic.
The ranged attackers attacked every part of the body they saw without any hesitation.
Is that all?
“Let me show you!”
– Grow up!
Cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies!
Noah sprang up from the ground, twirling his hands and swinging his fist at the snake.
That moment.
Kwaaaaang!
The creation of heaven and earth.
A vibration that felt as if the sky and the earth were turned upside down shook the space violently.
– Shhhh!
The reckless attack of Noah, the spirit king of the earth.
But even so, not a single scratch remained on the snake’s body.
– Shhh! Shhhh!
Rather, he seemed even more angry, exuding an evil aura and spewing venom from his mouth.
The arrows fired by the archers melted away before they could even reach the target, and the same was true of magic.
“My lord, it is difficult to approach!”
“Damn, what kind of ridiculous ability is that? Every time I get close, I get repelled by the venom!”
When Taeyang and Moo-gak stick out their tongues.
Kuung!
Kaden slammed his shield down on the ground.
“We will try to stop it.”
Then he recited to Arin.
“Let us fly too.”
“yes.”
Arin nodded and flicked her staff.
Then, all of her subordinates started to launch shield bearers into the sky.
“Everyone, hide behind the shields! Then approach!”
Quagagagaga!
The skeleton army began to engage Apophis fiercely.
Numerous attacks struck its body, and Apophis also moved its body while glowing.
‘That’s amazing.’
I watched the scene leisurely.
The force of that guy called Apophis?
To be honest, it’s like a baby compared to the Sylphids I saw in the spirit world.
That means it’s cute.
‘And poison?’
It’s me, thank you.
Stop!
I stepped on a shadow.
Silence.
The Shadow Shepherd King’s magic unfolded at my feet.
I was on top of that guy’s head in an instant.
– Kieeeeeeek!
The guy who sensed the crisis sent poison towards me.
poison?
Give me as much as you want.
I’m an impotent person anyway.
‘It’s poisonous fog.’
Honey.
The guy who was tied to my lower abdomen started to wiggle.
Okay, here’s something delicious.
For the first time in a long time, I want to go somewhere and eat endlessly.
– Kiaaaaaaaaaaah!
That moment.
A roar that shook the heavens and the earth filled the entire space.
The roar of a terrifying and vicious monster filled with all kinds of resentment and hatred!
A monster that has appeared for the first time in a long time.
A monster that is with me and has carried countless poisons.
The poisonous fog roared as if it was enjoying itself.
* * *
– … … .
Apophis is a terrible creature that wanders the universe.
These are called the snakes of terror.
This time Apophis too.
It was a monster among monsters that devoured planets, that is, countless worlds.
– Shhh! Shhhh!
How many constellations were torn apart beneath his teeth?
however.
What is it?
As usual, he was wandering through space, preying.
Apophis sniffed.
A delicious smell calling someone.
A tempting smell that you can’t resist.
The moment I went in, I thought… … .
Apophis shouted in joy.
Numerous skeletons exist on the planet.
The thought of swallowing them all in one bite made my skin tingle.
Everyone has done it so far.
When their eyes met, everyone froze in fear.
When he spewed poison from his mouth, everyone melted without even being able to resist.
however.
This time it was a little different.
White bones.
They did not fear or run away.
As soon as it saw me, it took an attacking stance and started rushing at me eagerly.
This was a new experience for Apophis.
– Shhhh!
Apophis was both surprised and angry.
okay.
There were times when it happened.
Those who rush in without knowing the topic.
Isn’t it the destiny of our Apophis to crush such people?
“Shit.”
But then something strange happened.
A being that suddenly appeared above your head.
Also, the strange cloud that the being summoned.
– Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
What is that?
Apophis was embarrassed.
Are you not making a terrible noise and enjoying your own venom!
Drinking poison?
How is that even possible?
That wasn’t all.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Some kind of stupidly large boulder keeps hitting his body.
At first I just ignored it, but as time went on, it started to bother me and I felt like my insides were twisting.
– Shh, shhh! Shh?
Water fills his mouth.
It is safe to say that Apophis had never had so much water in his life.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
On the outside, the skin was burning.
Wheeeeeeing!
And also the power of the wind that approaches like a blade.
– Shhh!
Apophis thought that something was wrong with the situation.
At the sight of skeletons and spirits approaching with gleaming eyes.
– … … .
For the first time, Apophis felt fear.
What is this?
Am I being hunted in return?
