The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Episode 048
A few days later.
The day of the B-class promotion match has dawned.
[Joseph] Go first! ㅎㅅㅇ)/
[Seonwoo Chan] Hunter! Fighting! Fighting! Fighting!
[Yeonha Seong] Seo Hunter, I will be cheering you on~ ^^
[Yeon Ha-eun] On behalf of the management office, I would like to express my best wishes for your continued success.
[Jeongmyeongsan] (thumbs up emoticon)
[Seok Gyu-hee] Hunter, fighting!
[Seok Gyu-Hyeon] Hunter, fighting!
[Yoo Hye-ryeong] Have a nice trip.
After regression.
Little by little, messages of support from people I had a connection with began to pile up.
“… … .”
It was a strange feeling though.
I didn’t hate it.
Seo Yi-jun replied to everyone except Jose Woo, saying, “I’ll be back.”
However, these were not all the contacts piled up on Seo Yi-jun’s phone.
[Overseas Call] Hunter Seo Yi-jun. A Grade A contract and permanent residency are being prepared.
[Overseas dispatch] Let’s bury the Eagle Valley and look to the future together.
[Overseas dispatch] Even if it is not a contract, please visit the union at least once!
[Overseas Call] Even if people around you point fingers at you, I will support Hunter Seo Yi-jun today!
Text messages sent overseas.
‘You’ve taken other people’s information so frugally, haven’t you?’
Through Seonwoo Chan, the management office made it clear to Seo Yijun that they had no intention of going overseas.
However, the major powers such as the United States, China, Europe, and Japan never gave up on Seo Yi-jun.
‘plaguy.’
I’m going to have to change my phone or get rid of it soon.
I put my phone on the side of the bed and swallowed all the pills in my mouth.
[The B-class promotion match will begin in 5 minutes.]
[If you wish to participate, please use a ticket.]
Swish!
I tore up the ticket as instructed.
A torn ticket wrapped around Seo Yi-jun.
[Participating in the B-class promotion match.] * * *
The C-class promotion match was strictly an individual match.
Although there are cases of cooperation like the Haetae Guild, the system only evaluates individuals.
[Start team placement.]
The Class B promotion match was a team match with 10 people per team.
‘The evaluation of the system also focuses on groups rather than individuals.’
[You are the KOREA-5 team.]
Seo Yi-jun was a member of the 5th team on the Korean server.
As the arrangement was finally completed, the surrounding scenery changed.
It wasn’t a space where battles were fought right away like during the C-class promotion battle.
It was an indoor waiting room with an antique interior.
Seo Yi-jun slowly checked the faces of his team members.
The team members ranged in age from their late 20s to early 40s.
Naturally, Seo Yi-jun is the youngest.
Not only among the five Korean teams, but also among the youngest participants in the Class B promotion tournament held around the world.
At that moment, a familiar guild seal entered Seo Yi-jun’s field of vision.
‘… …Haetae Guild.’
It was the Haetae Guild.
Seo Yi-jun looked at them with a rather pitiful look.
It’s not because they’re the Haetae guild.
Since I had become close with Yoo Hye-ryeong, there was no reason to have any prejudice against the Haitai Guild.
“Oh, what! Did it get cut?”
“Ha, I’m done for. Hey. It’s just the two of us who are left behind.”
It was because of the attitudes of both people.
Team placement is based on the order in which tickets were used.
Using this, Haetae guild members use tickets simultaneously, aiming to have as many guild members as possible form the same team.
I used the same strategy this time too.
“Are the rest all 4 teams?”
“That must be true. I’m so unlucky, really. Aaaah! This is so annoying!”
The two failed to become a team with their guild members.
It may be regrettable that I am not on the same team as my guild members.
‘If you keep doing that, how will the people on your team feel?’
In fact, the team members were glaring at the Haetae guild members and pouring out curses.
“uh?”

Then suddenly.
“Seo, Seo Yijun Hunter!”
One person discovered Seo Yi-jun.
“hello.”
Seo Yi-jun gave a brief greeting.
“Colosseum of Rage speed run! It was awesome!”
“When did you go to the field… … . Hmm, hmm.”
“It’s an honor to be on the same team!”
The world’s shortest time to clear a C-class gate set in the Colosseum of Wrath.
Field hunting with nothing to gain.
After that, the schedule for conquering the C-class gate was completed with great momentum.
Although Seo Yi-jun was younger than everyone else, no one could treat him easily.
Rather, it is an appearance of acknowledging and accepting Seo Yi-jun as a person with superior skills.
‘Will I be able to see the skills of the scythe soldier and the black magic soldier that I’ve only heard about?’
‘This promotion match, is it worth it?’
‘If it’s Seo Yijun, then there are at least 5 C-class hunters… … So our team has 15 people?’
Of course, it was possible because it was a team battle.
“Isn’t it a disadvantage for us to have a celebrity?”
“What if I become a target for no reason?”
There were also two Haetae guild members who were muttering.
‘Not bad.’
To this extent, the atmosphere was pretty good. * * *
[Current status of Asia Zone 1 Class B promotion battle]
[Participating teams: 36 teams]
Asia Zone 1, encompassing Korea, Japan, parts of China, and half of Russia.
A total of 36 teams participated, with 10 people per team.
That is, a total of 360 hunters participated.
The C-rank hunter who uses the 361st ticket will not be able to participate in the promotion match.
‘Later, as humanity becomes unable to handle the brakes, the number of participants and participating teams gradually decreases.’
Seo Yi-jun recalled the last B-class promotion match in Eastern Europe, where not even one team could be filled.
This time, that future will never come.
[After a while, the B-class promotion match will begin.]
Squeak-.
As if the tightly closed door was opening, the entire waiting room disappeared like an illusion.
Instead, a world unfolded where flames engulfed everything and lava flowed.
C-class hunters sweated like rain.
“Wow, that’s amazing.”
“This is the environment of a B-class gate.”
“I was trying to hold out for a while.”
I’m just sweating right now.
After a while, your skin will crack and burn, your eyes will dry out so much that you can’t even open them, your mouth will burn, and your entire body will boil.
Bam.
Some hunters drank fire resistance potions from their inventory.
Swish.
Some hunters used buffs to cool down.
“Whew.”
Some hunters endured the flames by controlling their breathing.
Seo Yi-jun also did not take any other action.
“That’s the black ghost coat you got for winning the speed run… … .”
“I didn’t know the environmental adaptation option was so useful.”
“I think I’ll adjust my next equipment to adapt to the environment.”
The black ghost coat was used to maintain optimal temperature and humidity in gates below Class A.
[Round 1 begins.]
Kwarrrrrrrrrr-.
The surroundings vibrated with the start message.
Round 1 of the Class B Promotion Match.
It was a monster wave with 100 D-class monsters rushing in at once.
“Okay, let’s all show off our skills!”
“You all know that the bottom 8 teams are eliminated right away, right?”
The 8 teams that clear their waves last are eliminated on the spot.
But that doesn’t mean you can pour all your energy into it.
As the system message said, this is only round 1.
The Class B promotion match consists of three rounds.
“If you let go of all your strength, you’ll fail in the next round. You need to pace yourself.”
“Haha, I know, I know. This isn’t my first challenge… … .”
Hunters who knew these facts well encouraged each other and raised their morale.
“Ahem, ahem.”
“Let’s go Jinhyeong, Jinhyeong.”
Even the Haetae guild members who had been taking an uncooperative attitude are seen joining in to form a formation.
In the midst of all this, Seo Yi-jun stepped forward.
“Hey, Seo Yi-jun. Why are you stepping forward alone?”
“Everyone here has more experience than you, so you can’t ignore them like that!”
The Haetae guild members criticized Seo Yi-jun.
“Uh, um, let’s leave Hunter Seo Yijun alone. He’s the one who can break a C-rank gate on his own.”
The older hunter defended Seo Yijun and listened.
“What does that have to do with anything? Is hunting alone the same as hunting with a team?”
“That, that… … .”
“I’ve hunted alone so far, so I should follow the advice of those with experience here! Aren’t you bragging about having a camera?”
camera.
‘There was something like that.’
At those words, Seo Yi-jun looked up at the red-tinted sky.
‘I feel it.’
Is it because I climbed the stairs of the Black Gate so many times?
The sky engulfed in flames.
I could feel the gaze looking down on the hunters from there.
It was the so-called camera that the Haitai guild member just mentioned.
‘Starting from the B-class promotion match, the channel users of the affiliated server will relay that line of sight.’
When a channel user broadcasts a hologram into the air through the system.
The format was to broadcast the video again via TV or streaming.
It’s not like I’m interested in anything.
Seo Yi-jun is not someone who would do something rash just to get a camera.
Until just a moment ago, I had even forgotten about the camera.
There was one reason why Seo Yi-jun came forward.
“Didn’t you say that pace control is important?”
It was to help team members control their pace.
None of the nine C-class hunters noticed.
Sarararararak… … .
Seo Yi-jun’s wires were already spread out widely in front.
-Shurorororo~
The D-class monsters and corrupted fire spirits that were running towards the hunters also didn’t notice the wires being laid.
-Shuroro~ Shuroro~
A hundred fire spirits rushed in, riding on the surrounding lava and flames, surrounded by flames.
Hooooooooooooooooo-!
With just one gesture from Seo Yi-jun, everything subsided.
“Yeah! Pace control is important, though! … … Huh?”
“What? Where did all the fire spirits go?”
“Huh, all at once?”
The hunters were confused.
[Pass the 1st round.]
Five Korean teams advanced through the first round. * * *
The B-class promotion match will be broadcast on terrestrial and cable channels.
[Live] B-Class Promotion Match Broadcast
It was also broadcast live on the management office’s website.
“Hello, citizens watching! This is the B-class promotion match that our citizens always send us their fervent wishes for. Today is especially hot!”
“Yes. That’s because there’s a hunter named Seo Yi-jun who the world is paying attention to.”
There was even a broadcaster caster with the [Speech] trait, and a former hunter commentator with the [Insight] trait.
-This is really great. They are evenly illuminating teams 1 through 6.
-Sister, don’t do that.
-Oh my gosh ㅋㅋㅋ There’s no need for equality and fairness, so just recommend 5 teams ㅋㅋㅋ
-Hand me back Seo Yi-jun! Bang bang bang bang!
-Team 4 is all Haetae Guild
-No matter what, it seems like they’re really good at using their numbers.
The broadcast screen showed six teams in rotation at a time.
-Still, I’m so happy that our headquarters chief is a C-rank every time we have a promotion match.
-Reallyㅋㅋㅋ I just went to watch a live broadcast of the Japanese government and my eyes were blown awayㅋㅋㅋㅋ The difference in video quality between C-class and D-class channel users is hugeㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The picture quality is good, but the camera angle is also determined by the channel user rating.
-I’m a fundamentalist, and it’s not something that happens just for a day or two, haha
-It’s crazy hot just looking at the screen
-The chicken is here but I don’t want to touch it.
-Do B-class hunters always go into places like that and roll around for a few days before coming back?
-If a B-class hunter drinks a potion, it won’t be hot lol
While expressing regret over the fact that Seo Yi-jun was not shown much, they responded with satisfaction with the image quality and angles.
-It starts to rush in like a fire spirit juggling lol
-Hey, old man….
-Huh? Are Haetae and Seo Yijun fighting right now?
-Castlevania lol I gritted my teeth and wrapped it up as a strategy meeting lol
-1st tier broadcasters are different lol
-But isn’t it wrong for the neck to come forward when forming a formation?
-It’s definitely Haitai’s fault. If you refute, it’s Haitai’s fault.
-I wonder what they’re saying. The camera is far away so I can’t hear that kind of conversation.
And after a while.
-What is it?
-?
-?
-omg?
-???????????????
The chat window was filled with question marks.
-Did you just kill 100 D-class mobs in one room?
-I want to see it in person ㅎㅅㅇ)
-I was looking at the skeleton soldier and what kind of magic is that????
-Even if it’s Seo Yi-jun, if he writes something like that, won’t it spread in the 2nd and 3rd levels?
-Without even shedding a drop of sweat
-That’s right ㅋㅋㅋㅋ The broadcasting crew was silent as a group and the headquarters director’s camera was fixed ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Even the management office finds it absurdㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ * * *
‘hmm.’
Seo Yi-jun, who returned to the waiting room, slowly checked his condition.
Even if it’s Seo Yijun, it’s bound to be a huge drain to wipe out 100 D-class monsters in one blow.
‘It’s okay.’
That is, if you haven’t acquired a new skill from the skill book you received as the <Conqueror of the C-Class Gate> achievement.
