The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Chapter 49

The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Episode 049

The achievement reward for <Conqueror of the C-Class Gate> was a B-Class Skill Book.

Just like when you became the <Conqueror of the D-Class Gate> and obtained the C-Class Skill Book.

[User’s level is insufficient.]

Currently, Seo Yi-jun’s level is low, so he cannot obtain the B-rank skill right away.

[Acquire the skill [Bone Crafting (C)].]

– Creates bones by consuming magic power.

-As the level increases, more complex bone shapes are created.

Still, I got a C-class skill right away.

[Bone Craft].

If the essential skill for a skeleton necromancer is [Skeleton Soldier Reinforcement].

‘Magic Neck Essential Skill.’

[Bone Crafting] was an essential skill for necromancers who specialized in [Bone Magic].

‘[Bone Magic] has excellent versatility, but has the disadvantage of consuming a specific bone every time you use the magic.’

I always had to keep my inventory well stocked.

Learning [Bone Crafting] could reduce that burden.

In other words, it wasn’t a particularly useful skill unless it was used to assist [Bone Magic].

‘[Bone Magic] is also very good, but… … we don’t have enough skill books to form a legion.’

Seo Yijun doesn’t have [Bone Magic].

Therefore, Seo Yijun’s [Bone Craft] was used somewhat differently from that of regular necromancers.

Sararak… … .

He pulled the wire out into Seo Yi-jun’s right hand.

The silver-gray wire had a fainter impression than usual.

It was thanks to the bone powder applied to the wire with [Bone Craft].

That is, using wires became an act related to bones.

[Bone Lord] has been activated, drastically reducing magic power consumption.

“Excuse me, Hunter Seo Yijun. Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Yes. There is no problem.”

Thanks to this, Seo Yi-jun was able to extinguish the fire spirit in one breath without feeling any loss of magical power.

[Round 1 ends.]

[Current status of Asia Zone 1 Class B promotion battle]

[Participating teams: 28 teams]

Before long, the first round was over.

28 teams finished the wave.

The eight teams that were still organizing their waves were immediately eliminated.

[After a while, round 2 begins.]

Squeak.

The second round began right away and the waiting room door opened.

If this was going to happen, I wonder why they sent me back to the waiting room.

“Because the waiting room also has a healing effect.”

The promotion waiting room quickly restores stamina and magic power.

One of the strategies in Round 1 was to push the wave a little and take advantage of the waiting room’s recovery effects.

Of course, if you do that and the recovery amount is lower than expected, you will fail in the second round.

As the waiting room disappeared.

A dry, cracked land like a turtle shell was revealed.

It’s not just the land.

Even the atmosphere seemed to be splitting apart, and the sky was as cracked as the earth.

Kugugugugugu!

At the same time, the world shook.

“The ripple zone?”

“Excommunication warning! Excommunication warning!”

Unlike fire resistance potions and cold resistance potions, there is no such thing as a ripple resistance potion.

Even the black ghost coat couldn’t protect Seo Yi-jun.

‘This has nothing to do with temperature or humidity.’

This is because the environmental factors blocked by the black ghost coat are related to temperature and humidity.

“Ugh… … .”

“Stay focused! You have to adapt!”

“Don’t fall!”

The ripples that shake the world shake even the brain and the intestines.

If you get caught up in the wrong thing, you’ll die in vain.

“As long as you focus, it won’t be so hard that you won’t be able to bear it and fall over!”

Above the heads of the hunters who were barely holding their balance while enduring the waves.

-Whoosh!

A huge shadow was cast.

Round 2 of the Class B promotion match.

If a large number of low-grade monsters appear in the first round.

This time it’s the opposite.

“I’m out!”

“B-class boss monster!”

Seo Yi-jun is a B-class boss who you have met and defeated 10 times as a hidden boss.

“This is a stone golem…!”

“If I hit it wrong, the sword will break right away.”

“They say that lower-level magic is just chewed up… … Wow, that magic resistance is really amazing.”

The hunters were so nervous that they flinched.

Because it was a formidable opponent that an ordinary C-class hunter would never have encountered.

In the second round, just like the first round, the last eight teams are automatically eliminated.

There are currently 28 teams left, so there should be 20 teams left.

There will probably be less than 20 teams that advance to the third round.

‘In a B-class boss raid, the team that appears is almost always annihilated.’

The difficulty of the second round was that high.

It would be simple if Seo Yi-jun really stepped forward.

“I’ll try to pace myself a bit this time.”

Seo Yi-jun himself didn’t think that way.

‘I did this to test the compatibility of [bone craft] and wire.’

As a result, I ended up taking the round 1 bus.

‘If you’re a hunter, you have to prove yourself.’

I never intended to give him a bus ride until round 2.

“This time, let’s show off our skills!”

“sure.”

“You can’t get a B-class by taking a bus!”

The other C-class hunters didn’t have that kind of intention either.

‘I want to keep riding the bus, though.’

‘If I do that, I’ll be 100% stuffed into the community.’

Be mindful of the eyes of those around you.

‘One round is enough for the bus! If he shows good performance, won’t it be advantageous when re-signing or transferring?’

Because of long term calculations.

‘Thanks to Hunter Seo Yi-jun, I saved my stamina and magic power in the first round.’

‘We can win the second round with an overwhelming advantage over other teams!’

Because the pure fighting spirit of a hunter was burning inside me.

Team 5 Korea thought that the B-class boss monster raid was worth a try. * * *

There are cases like that.

I was so motivated that I thought it would be worth a try… … .

When I actually encountered it, it was as expected difficult… … .

-Whoosh!

“Eww!”

The B-class boss monster, Stone Golem, was like that.

“You have to narrow down your target and attack the connecting part, but it’s not easy!”

“The blunt weapons will deal damage, so please manage your aggro!”

On a body as hard as rock, the blades, or the auras, did not work properly.

“Uh, let me fix it!”

The blade would get damaged every so often, so I had to fall back and use skills like [Weapon Repair].

Come on!

“Ouch!”

Blunt weapons were effective, but every time he struck the stone golem, the shock went up through its bones.

Stone Golems aren’t just sturdy.

-Warrrrrrr-.

“Come on! Get out of here!”

“If you get that wrong, you’ll be in trouble in one shot!”

Even just swinging his sturdy body slowly would be close to instant death for a C-class hunter.

The wizard was also frustrated.

“Crazy, this [Wind Magic] is useless!?”

“Ha, that’s better. My [Fire Magic] makes the golem hot and increases its attack power.”

The C-class wizard’s wind was harmless to the stone golem, and the heat was a buff.

“Our team doesn’t have a frost mage… … .”

[Cold magic] would be of some help, but none of the five Korean teams had cold magicians.

But the team members knew.

No matter what.

The situation that the five Korean teams are in is very good.

No one has died yet.

The very situation in which we were having this conversation was like that.

All of this.

Because Seo Yi-jun was there.

‘I thought I wouldn’t be active in the second round because they said they would adjust the pace… … .’

-Less!

-Dalgrak!

‘It’s also great that the scythe skeleton soldier brings in other skeleton soldiers to spread the aggro.’

-Less than that~

-Clap clap clap.

‘The magic that the Black Robe Magic Bottle uses to gather the power of other magic bottles and send them flying is more powerful than the C-class Hunter magic.’

-Come on!

‘Beastly disease is aggro management, but if you think someone is falling, take them out right away.’

-Daughter?

‘?’

‘What is that?’

‘That little skeletal beast looks like it’s playing?’

‘Does it matter because you’re cute?’

Seo Yi-jun’s skeleton corps was doing more than just one person’s job.

However, it is not like Seo Yi-jun put all his effort into maintaining his summons like regular summoners.

Sararak… … .

-Warp! Warp, roar!

The wire released by Seo Yi-jun dug into the stone golem’s joints, hindering its movements.

‘That’s more fraudulent than the skeleton soldier.’

‘This is the skill of Hunter Seo Yi-jun, who single-handedly set the shortest Colosseum record… …!’

‘The stone golem is slow, but it’s slow.’

‘It’s much easier to move my body!’

It helps melee hunters to break through the ground with minimal impact from the shaking of the seismic zone.

“The way is open!”

“Let’s fire them one by one!”

It provides a route for projectiles such as arrows and magic fired by long-range hunters to penetrate the shockwave and reach the stone golem.

The environmental penalty in the earthquake zone was eased by one person, Seo Yi-jun.

Seo Yi-jun intervened to the point where he said he would not let her ride the bus, but that alone was an overwhelming performance.

‘If things continue like this, advancing to the third round is a given.’

‘The power might come up!’

Hunters who are declared dead in rounds 1 and 2 are immediately returned to reality.

It doesn’t matter whether the team advances to the next round or how well they’ve performed so far.

You will be disqualified immediately.

From the perspective of the remaining team members, the power will be reduced, which will immediately cause problems with the Stone Golem raid.

Even if you advance to the third round, you will have to start at a disadvantage.

“Let’s try a little harder!”

It was also natural to look after the safety of other team members.

It was a natural thing.

‘… … I guess you’re thinking the same thing.’

Not everyone was like that. * * *

Seo Yi-jun could sense the eyes stealing from him as soon as the second round began.

Haetae Guild Member.

One of the two curled his tail after seeing Seo Yi-jun’s performance in the first round, but the other one was the problem.

It’s just that I don’t have enough skills to put it into action.

‘The intention was clearly revealed in the gaze.’

I was anxious because I didn’t know what to do with Seo Yi-jun.

‘Even if I fail to get promoted to Class B, I will still cling to you.’

It is clear that the upper echelons of the Haitai Guild are gnashing their teeth at Seo Yi-jun.

It may be that he calculated that just by interfering with Seo Yi-jun, he could get a bad reputation from the higher-ups.

Or maybe you’ve already been promised something.

It was a foregone conclusion that Seo Yi-jun would participate in this Class B promotion match.

‘I tried to just let it go as much as possible.’

I didn’t actually do anything.

This is because he did not want other hunters to suffer because of his relationship with the Haetae Guild.

but.

“Euryaaaaaaa-!”

Crunch!

He swung his mace coolly and struck the stone golem.

-Dalgrak!?

The skeleton soldier was almost caught in that swing trajectory.

“… … .”

If Seo Yijun hadn’t been summoned just before, at least 5 units would have been destroyed.

“Oh my, I was too focused. I’m sorry! Huh? I’m sorry!”

Of course it was intentional.

“You crossed the line.”

Seo Yi-jun muttered.

“Huh? Sorry, what did you say?”

Seo Yi-jun didn’t bother to repeat it.

Because that wasn’t what he wanted to hear in the first place.

‘I don’t have the authority to decide other people’s promotions.’

I didn’t want to get promoted with that guy.

‘The bodyguard.’

Seo Yi-jun made a decision.

-Less!

The guards, who had been seething with anger over what had almost happened to their subordinates, reacted quickly.

-Less!

-Sweet~!

The guards immediately led the assault troops and charged towards the stone golem.

-Whoosh!

I didn’t do anything special.

I continued to circle around the Stone Golem, hitting and running away as I had done so far.

“Euryaa~!”

Naturally, a point of contact was created between me and the Haetae guild member who was in charge of the front line.

no.

A member of the Haetae guild approached me on purpose.

“Oh my! I can’t not hit this stone golem!”

The bastard’s swing trajectory included soldiers, including his personal guards.

Kaaaaang!

The guard raised his scythe to block the mace and was pushed back.

-Less!

I was suddenly summoned back.

“… … Huh.”

At that moment, Seo Yi-jun stumbled.

Kwaaaaang!

The Stone Golem’s fist struck down.
