Episode 134
“Euuuu… … Keuuu… … .”
Gong Da-won, who was cut by a sword, crouches on the floor and groans in pain.
Suho watched the scene for a while.
It’s about seeing his wounds.
“The joke… wasn’t that bad.”
It really was.
How finely did I control my strength?
However, Gong Da-won was panting as if she was about to die, and Su-ho used one of his skills on her.
[ Heal is activated . ]
Wow!
When you use the heel, a bright halo of light surrounds Gongdaewon.
At the same time, he began to heal his stamina and wounds.
Suho said while using the hill.
“It wasn’t cut that deeply, so please stop overdoing it.”
“Ugh… … Me, to me… … W, why, why are you doing this… … .”
“Don’t you know better, Gong Da-won?”
“I, I don’t know… … ! I, I really don’t know anything… … !”
Gong Da-won is still crouching and shivering even though her wounds have healed.
Suho looked down at Gong Dawon with complicated eyes.
His name is Gong Da-won.
He was a first-star necromancer player with a level of over 100, and he later became famous as the ‘Lord of Gonjiam’ or the ‘Necromancer of Gonjiam’.
However, there was a nickname that suited him even better than that: ‘Delusional Necromancer’.
Suho recalled the information about Gong Da-won he had seen in the Library of Memories.
‘He was originally a normal person, but he got a serious head injury inside the gate and became like this.’
It really was.
I heard that he got hit in the back of the head during battle and his head got weird, but when I actually saw it, it was really bad.
‘It’s a shame. Mental illness is something that even I, as of now, can’t cure.’
According to records, he was said to be suffering from a severe delusional disorder.
For example, thinking that everyone in the world is trying to harm you.
That’s why he became more fearful than before, and he came to Gonjiam where there was no one, used his abilities to build a fortress, and lived in hiding.
Of course, if you look at it up to here, there isn’t really a big problem.
From a normal person’s perspective, he was just one of many hunters who retired due to injury, and also a slightly mentally ill person, which is relatively common in modern society.
The only problem was the power he was using.
‘Even if it’s a summoned undead, the ‘Rising Series’, a skill that utilizes actual corpses, is one of the skills currently banned in our country.’
Rising series.
The Rising series, a skill that uses actual corpses to create skeletons and zombies instead of summoning the undead from the demon world with the sorcerer’s magic, is currently a technique prohibited under the current laws of our country.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if you use it to fight enemies inside the gate.
Because the inside of the gate is considered to be an exhibition area, most things are permitted.
However, it should never be used outside the gate.
The reason was that the use of actual corpses was detrimental to human dignity.
‘Gonjiam… … I heard that there are a lot of corpses that couldn’t be recovered because of the large gate that exploded in the past.’
Was it a coincidence that Gong Da-won came to Gonjiam out of all the places?
That doesn’t matter at all.
The problem is that he is using his powers outside the gate, not inside, to use unidentified corpses as his limbs.
Of course, the reason Suho came to Gongdaewon was not to accuse him of something.
Suho came purely because of his own special quest.
Suho said.
“Mr. Gong Da-won, is there a ‘Bone Dragon’ among the undead you currently have?”
“Hey, Bone Dragon?”
“Yes, the bone dragon.”
“Oh, nothing… … Not something that huge… … .”
“Then there is a demon-shaped skeleton?”
“If it’s Ma, Ma Soo-hyung… … then, there is this.”
“Please show me.”
“Why, why?”
“If not, I will kill Gong Da-won.”
“iced coffee……!”
At first glance, dealing with a mentally ill person may seem like a difficult task.
However, dealing with Gong Da-won, who had a delusional disorder among the many mental illnesses, was easier than expected.
In the first place, he thought someone would harm him, so he came to the Gonjiam Mountains and built a fortress to live in. But if someone with overwhelming power threatens to kill him, he will have no choice but to listen to him even if he wants to live.
Gong Da-won trembled at Su-ho’s polite threats and began to take out the demon-shaped skeletons he had stored in his subspace.
“hmm.”
Demon-shaped skeletons.
There are many types.
From wolves to tigers and elephants.
It looks like they raided the Gonjiam Zoo.
Suho nodded and said.

“Of all the skeletons you have, which one is the most difficult to control?”
“Uh, that thing… … .”
In response to Suho’s question, Gong Da-won raises her finger and points to one of the skeletons.
It was about the size of an elephant, and as soon as Suho saw it, he could tell what its original shape was.
“Are you a troll?”
“yes yes…….”
Suho nodded in satisfaction after seeing the troll skeleton.
Because that was enough.
Suho said.
“Mr. Gong Da-won.”
“yes yes?”
“I think it would be better for you to get some sleep first.”
Suho hit the back of his neck and knocked him out.
Then, the caster fainted, canceling all the skills he was using, and the skeletons that had formed the form also returned to their original remains.
Suho left the unconscious Gong Dawon and headed towards the window covered with curtains.
Then I opened the window wide and looked at the mountainous area outside the window.
“hmm.”
Suho, who was thinking for a moment, makes a phone call to someone.
*
“Umm… … .”
How long was he unconscious?
Gong Da-won gradually began to come to his senses.
But as soon as he came to his senses, the face of Suho who had attacked him came to mind.
“Oh, no!!”
Gong Da-won, who thought of Su-ho’s face, began to breathe more quickly and her blood pressure began to rise.
This is because the chain of thoughts that Suho would kill himself occurred in an instant, causing extreme stress.
But at that moment.
“……uh?”
As if air had been let out of a balloon, his anxiety subsided in an instant.
At the same time, my head became clearer.
A strange experience I’ve never had before.
Gong Da-won opened her eyes wide and expressed her puzzlement at how her mood suddenly calmed down as if she had taken psychiatric medication.
“Wh, what is it? Uh, how… … ?”
“Are you feeling calmer now?”
“Yes, yes?”
I turned my head in the direction of the sound and there was Suho.
Gong Da-won, who saw Su-ho, once again experienced a chain of thoughts typical of anxiety disorder, and her breathing became rapid and her blood pressure began to soar.
Suho, who saw that sight, used one of the items.
[The Ring of Joy, Anger, Sorrow, and Pleasure reacts to the subject’s most intense emotions.]
[The emotion that can be absorbed is ‘black’.]
[ Absorbs emotions from the target . ]
The item used is the Ring of Joy and Sorrow.
As soon as he was about to have a seizure, Suho used the Ring of Joy and Sorrow to extract all the negative energy, black.
‘Surely, insanity is insanity. I just extracted the highest grade black, and now I have this much highest grade black again.’
I was so glad that I had the ring of joy and sorrow.
If he didn’t have the Ring of Joy and Sorrow, all Suho could do when he had a seizure was knock him unconscious by hitting him on the back of the neck.
Suho met his eyes and said.
“How are you feeling better now?”
“Yes, yes… … ! But, uh, how… … ? Strangely, I suddenly feel at ease… … .”
“I’m just trying to help out for a bit. But there’s something I want to ask you personally, Gong Da-won. Would you please listen to it?”
“Please… … please?”
“Yes, I need to kill the Bone Dragon for some reason. So, I would like you, Gong Da-won, to make me a Bone Dragon.”
“……yes?”
It wasn’t a joke.
I was sincere.
That’s because one of the conditions for unlocking the third power of Dragon’s Blood, which is the first condition of the special quest that Suho had to deal with, was ‘killing the Bone Dragon’.
‘But realistically, how can I meet the dragon I saw right now?’
Bone Dragon.
I’ve only seen it once in my life.
But the guy’s level was in the hundreds, and I even saw him in the latter half of the Cataclysm.
But you want me to catch that guy now?
Absolutely not.
‘The system doesn’t give the player any quests they can’t complete.’
The system may seem extremely vicious, but it is actually cleverly fair, only giving the player challenges that they can somehow overcome.
So, the difficulty of this strategy will vary greatly depending on how you interpret the conditions.
‘And I know what the system’s intention is.’
Gong Da-won said as if it was absurd.
“Oh, no, how do I make the dragon I saw?”
“Why can’t you make it? Gong Da-won can do it. Gong Da-won is a necromancer player.”
“Ah, no, that, that’s… … I, I can’t do it! Even Daniel, the world’s number one necromancer, has never even seen a bone dragon, let alone created one. How, how can I create one?”
“You’re a 1-star player. And if you can control the troll skeletons, you can do it.”
“Oh, no, so what?”
“You can use a dragon offspring instead of a real dragon.”
“yes yes?”
“Would you like to take a look around?”
At Suho’s words, Gong Dawon only then raised her head and looked around.
And then, without realizing it, his eyes widened.
“Uh, uh, uh?”
“Do you want to know what those are?”
“D, d, d, isn’t that a Drake? Oh, no, Drake, huh, how? Si, even ha, there’s not one or two?!”
The reason why Gong Da-won was surprised.
It was exactly as he said.
All around him were the corpses of Drakes that Suho had personally caught and killed.
I didn’t buy it on the black market.
The current location of Suho and Gongdaewon is inside the gate.
That was also the inside of the gate that Choi Yoon had brought.
Suho put Gongdaewon in the subspace house and entered the Drake Gate that Choi Yoon had rescued.
And before he woke up, I cleaned up the inside of the gate just before attacking it and created the best production environment for him.
Suho said.
“No need to be surprised. Mr. Gong Da-won has even made a troll skeleton, so he can easily make something like a bone drake.”
“Oh, oh, no. But that’s a bone drake, not a, uh, bone dragon, right?”
“Yes, it’s not a Bone Dragon. However, if you use the ‘Bone Reconstruction’ and ‘Species Evolution’ skills that Mr. Gong Da-won has, you should be able to imitate a Bone Dragon, even if it’s not a real one. That’s enough for me.”
“Is that possible?”
“You’ll know when you try it yourself. I guarantee the results.”
“T, what is that… … All of that, you tell me honestly! Are you doing this to torment me and kill me!”
Gong Da-won suddenly becomes enraged by an absurd request.
But Suho was not flustered and used the ring.
[The Ring of Joy, Anger, Sorrow, and Pleasure reacts to the subject’s most intense emotions.]
[The emotion that can be absorbed is ‘black’.]
[ Absorbs emotions from the target . ]
Then, Gong Da-won became calm as if it were a lie.
Suho asked, touching the ring.
“Can you do it?”
“Okay, I’ll try.”
“Okay, then let’s do our best together.”
Suho pats Gong Dawon on the shoulder and smiles kindly.
