The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Episode 057
The items in Joo Seung-taek’s inventory box easily exceeded Seo Yi-jun’s expectations.
-Garuda Wing Feather X3
-Fallen Spirit Core X3
-Orc’s Sinew X3
… … .
‘You hunting dog, you’re just a bunch of trash, huh?’
The inventory box was full of miscellaneous items arranged in groups of three.
I knew there were a lot of lines.
‘Because you were so excited about fighting.’
but.
‘Still, I thought there would be nothing but junk.’
I never thought that I would become a B-class hunter and only carry miscellaneous items in my inventory.
Seo Yi-jun also prepared recovery potions in case of an emergency, and made additional permeating poison that he used when hunting Kwon Young-woo.
‘I guess I should say it was quite thorough.’
It means that while he was sure he would defeat Seo Yi-jun, he took all the important items with him just in case.
‘It must have been quite a shock to learn that the bamboo slips had been stolen during Li Wei’s reign.’
The contents of Joo Seung-taek’s inventory box were a shock to Seo Yi-jun.
This is why the effect of [Usurper], which allows you to remove two items from your inventory box, is so embarrassing.
-66 cores
‘If I can salvage it, what about the core…?’
Among them, Core was the best choice, but it was a very small amount for a B-class hunter.
‘If you exchange it, it’s more than 100 million won, so it’s not a small amount… … .’
Seo Yijun currently has over 3,000 cores.
The reason why Joo Seung-taek’s core is only this was simple.
‘Even this is for bomb use.’
Because there are only 99 left for bombs.
‘It’d be better if the inventory box didn’t appear at all.’
In this case, it would have been much better to get a B-class essence.
Did he read Seo Yi-jun’s worries?
[The value of all items in your inventory box is significantly lower.]
[Title [Usurper] reactivates.]
[The Usurper] must have thought that this was too much, so he reactivated it.
[By consuming 1 usurpation count, the title [Usurper] can analyze the inventory’s receipts and payments within the past month.]
[You can steal one desired item from the inventory list.]
‘You’re saying you’re usurping the receipts and disbursements?’
It was possible to look at the records of items that came and went from Joo Seung-taek’s inventory and take one out from there.
‘If there’s nothing to take, are you going to take it even if you have to create it?’
It seemed as if the [usurper] was saying that he could not take anything away.
“It consumes.”
Since I was only going to blow up 3 junk items anyway since I was using up my number of usurpations, I didn’t feel bad about it.
[Lists rare or higher equipment, B-grade or higher items.]
– Whip of Demonic Domination (Unique)
-Leather Bracelet of Oppression (Rare)
-100 Horse Fur Vest (Rare)
– Poison for taming carnivore beasts (A)
– Poison for taming herbivore beasts (A)
-Anti-toxin for demons (B)
The list of rare or higher equipment and B-grade or higher items compiled by [The Usurper] seemed to be only for tamers.
‘… … My relationship with the devil must have been a mess.’
Looking at the equipment and items, it was clear how the demons were usually handled.
‘Unique weapon.’
However, that doesn’t mean we can ignore unique weapons.
‘It’s optional, but it has nothing to do with me.’
Options to control the devil are of no use to Seo Yijun.
‘I’ll just feed it to the guards later.’
As before, what mattered was not the options, but the grade itself.
And this whip is the weapon that Joo Seung-taek took out before summoning and exploding his demons.
-Dalgrak!
“Thank you for your hard work.”
So, this whip was also included among the equipment that the skeleton soldiers recovered from Joo Seung-taek’s body.
-Less!
The guardsman shrugged his shoulders in delight as he secured two unique weapons.
Seo Yi-jun chuckled.
“Yes, that’s yours.”
-Less!
“You can’t absorb it right now. You know that, right?”
The current guard’s [Sickle] is C-rank.

As with the Black Magic Soldier and the Dragon Soldier, a rare weapon was needed to upgrade to B-rank.
It wasn’t yet time for unique weapons to appear.
So the items that were actually absorbed were the Dark Mage’s Life Vessel Fragment and Juvenile’s Broken Dragon’s Word.
[[Life Vessel Fragment] absorbs [Leather Bracelet of Oppression].]
[[Broken Dragon’s Word] absorbs [Hundred Horses’ Fur Vest].]
Even though I absorbed rare items, neither [Black Magic] nor [Dragon’s Power] went up in rank and remained at B rank.
[In order for the succession skill [Black Magic] to go up from B-rank to A-rank, you must additionally absorb unique armor.]
[In order for the succession skill [Dragon’s Power] to go up from B-rank to A-rank, you must additionally absorb unique accessories.]
‘This is the one that needs a unique to advance to the next level.’
In order to upgrade an inheritance item from B-grade to A-grade, one rare piece of equipment and one unique piece of equipment were required.
As a result, there was no reinforcement of the commanders with this harvest.
I thought so.
[[Death Side Fragment] absorbs 2 [Whip of Demonic Domination].]
[Inheritance skill [Sickle Technique] level increases by 1.]
[Grade: C-Class -> B-Class]
“… … ?”
The Death Side fragments suddenly became B-grade.
Absorb 2 unique whips. * * *
[Daenasul]’s rank has increased.
The fact that it has risen is a very good thing in itself.
That means the skeleton corps’ power has been increased.
The problem is the ingredients that go into it.
‘I achieved a level that could have been achieved by eating 1 rare weapon by eating 2 unique weapons…?’
Even if you absorb one unique weapon and give it a B-grade, it is still overconsumption.
By the way, you absorbed two unique weapons?
Even for Seo Yi-jun, it was an embarrassing situation.
“The bodyguard?”
-Less!
At Seo Yi-jun’s call, the bodyguard banged his fist on his sternum as if to tell him to trust him.
[In order for the succession skill [Sickle] to go up from B-rank to A-rank, you must additionally absorb 2 rare weapons.]
Then, [Daenasul] came with a message saying that no additional unique grades were needed to advance to A-grade.
[In order to upgrade the succession skill [Sickle] from A-rank to S-rank, you must additionally absorb 2 rare weapons.]
The message continued that you don’t need a unique weapon when you climb to S-rank.
‘… … So you paid a deposit for a unique weapon?’
If you look at it this way, it wasn’t overconsumption.
Rather, you will be giving away two unique weapons that will just take up inventory space, and you will be receiving the rewards first.
This was possible because it was a unique weapon, something that would have been impossible to obtain by only feeding it rare weapons.
-Less!
The guard tapped his sternum again.
“You wouldn’t do anything to harm me? Yeah. Of course you would. I’m sorry.”
Of course, I did not doubt the loyalty of the guards.
However, isn’t it because the Royal Guard, which was already inferior in rank to the Black Magic Soldiers and Dragon Soldiers, couldn’t participate in [Chief Skeleton Summoning] that they became impatient?
I had that worry.
-Noise! Noise!
“Yeah, yeah.”
I guess it was a needless worry. * * *
“Everyone, let’s keep going.”
Seo Yi-jun and the skeleton troop marched through the grassland without hesitation.
‘If it goes on like this, it’s possible.’
Joo Seung-taek entered the first zone with a 20% chance of winning.
The first area is where Seo Yi-jun had already finished hunting.
All Joo Seung-taek did was blow up Sammiho’s body.
‘A hidden boss will appear.’
Just like Kwon Young-woo, Joo Seung-taek also did not interfere in the process of conquering the gate.
Fortunately, thanks to the effective use of traps, the consumption of magic power was not great.
Seo Yi-jun joined the hunt with the skeleton troop.
Compared to when you hunted the first meadow, the skeleton corps has been joined by chief skeletons, and the guards’ [Sickle Technique] has also been strengthened.
-Cause hey!
-Kkigging, kkkeung?!
The Sam-Tailed Foxes could never stop the advance of the Skeleton Army.
The terrain being grassland also worked to the advantage of the skeleton troopers.
‘The grassland doesn’t have any special terrain correction, but it can be used widely.’
It was a terrain that suited the strategy of the Sam-Tailed Fox, who circled around and poured out multi-attribute magic.
Unfortunately, it was a terrain better suited to the skeleton corps with their massive numbers.
[Entering the boss area.]
Finally, after finishing hunting in the fifth area, we arrived at the boss area.
The boss of the five bewitchments was initially Omiho, the master of the five tails who had been disrupting the hunters’ starting points.
‘Has the environment changed?’
At first glance, it looked like an ordinary meadow.
But if you look closely, you can see swaying azaleas blooming here and there.
‘Ajirang of welcome.’
They were illusionary phantoms meant to dazzle those around them.
And on that azalea.
[A hidden boss appears.]
A cloudy, sticky mass poured out and enveloped Omiho.
‘… … Even though it’s a B-class boss monster, it can’t even properly resist.’
Anyway, as expected, the hidden boss appeared.
‘20% chance. It might have been quite high.’
This was all thanks to Joo Seung-taek overcoming a 20% chance and falling into the same area as Seo Yi-jun.
“after.”
Seo Yi-jun took a deep breath and lightly clenched and unclenched his fist.
Even for Seo Yi-jun, it was a tense moment.
A-class boss monster, Seven-Tailed Fox.
The guy was looking at Seo Yi-jun while slowly wagging his seven-colored tail. * * *
‘Fire, cold, wind, darkness, lightning, ripples, blood poison.’
Seo Yi-jun first figured out the attribute the creature was dealing with by the color of its tail.
‘It’s quite something.’
He boasted a level befitting a Class A boss, without falling behind in any of the seven attributes.
The Seven-Tailed Fox’s power is not limited to the multi-attribute nature of its tail.
‘The teeth and claws are not something to be ignored.’
Compared to beast monsters in the form of wolves, lions, tigers, etc., their close combat capabilities are inferior.
Still, as expected of a class A boss, it had sharp teeth and claws.
‘Finally, the Azirang of illusion and hallucination.’
Although it is not included in the tail attribute, fox monsters above Omiho can commonly use illusion.
In an environment where azaleas are blooming like now, the effect of this illusion is amplified.
-Awww!
Chil-Tailed Fox let out a long cry.
Suu …
As if responding to that cry, a haze of welcome spread out like fog.
‘Seven?’
When the fog cleared, the number of Seven Tailed Foxes had increased to seven.
It was a clone technique.
The basic way to tell the clones apart is to induce an attack from each of them and compare their power.
Conversely, you should attack them one by one and compare how much damage is inflicted.
This was because there was a difference in ability between the original self and the clone.
‘But that method only works on lower-level monsters.’
Neither method works against a monster like Chil-Tailed Fox.
Intentionally lowers the power of the attack and exaggerates the damage to confuse the opponent.
Then, at the crucial moment, he reveals his true power and takes the opponent’s life.
But it was useless against Seo Yi-jun.
[Title [Tactician] is activated.]
[Increases understanding of special terrain [Welcome Zone].]
The [Tactician] title, which had no effect on the ordinary grasslands, began to show its presence.
[The trait [Bone Lord] supports the title [Tactician].]
[Detects the clone technique of the special terrain [Welcome Zone].]
‘It’s that guy.’
Combined with the [Bone Lord’s] insight that sees through the movement of bones, he was able to see through the clone in an instant.
