The Boundless Necromancer Chapter 139

139. Advent (4)

When I opened my eyes, what I saw was a darkness that was hard to guess the end of.

But that didn’t make me feel repulsed or scared.

It was as if his entire body had been submerged in lukewarm water, dull and rather warm.

“… … .”

After staring at the darkness for a while, I felt my thinking ability gradually recover.

Only then did I realize

‘I see. I am… … , already dead.’

In reality, I died once and went into a waiting state for resurrection.

Perhaps this is an image world or a short passage like a kaleidoscope.

Maybe it’s the phenomenon caused by the veil of night that swallows the embers.

Whatever it was, I had no intention of staying here any longer.

‘… … let’s wake up And let’s do our best to fight.’

I haven’t used everything I can yet.

Myths did not activate, many skills were preserved, and many were unable to use their powers.

It has not been completely defeated yet.

‘It’s rare, but there is a chance to win.’

But I don’t know what will happen if I spend more time in the imagery.

You must recover your spirit as quickly as possible and enter the battle.

‘Anyway, this is my image. It won’t be difficult to regain consciousness if you concentrate.’

It was all the more so because he had once awakened to mental imagery during the ordeal on the 11th floor.

As soon as I focused my mind while burning my fighting spirit, a sword appeared in the black space.

It was a kind of switch.

If I hold the sword as part of the mental world I saw once on the 11th floor, I will be able to come to my senses and return to reality.

It wasn’t taught by anyone, but it’s a kind of catching that I learned naturally.

It should have been a little strange that it worked right away when I concentrated my mind, but I didn’t feel the value beyond that.

‘… … As soon as I go out, protect myself with a counterattack shield, activate <Reversal Hero>, and slowly aim for an opportunity.’

Immediately after that, I moved to the place where the sword was while thinking about the battle strategy.

… … No, to be precise, I was trying to move.

[Whoops, I never thought I would try to leave alone. You’re a hot-headed kid. ]

Until I felt a sudden crunch on my back.

‘What is this… … !’

Realizing that someone was holding my upper body from behind, I immediately shook my hand.

I got goosebumps.

Even in images, I always sharpened my senses.

This was a habit that came about after maintaining the senses that were strengthened through various skills.

But I didn’t even know that someone was hugging me… … .

In an instant, a sense of tension criss-crossed all over the place, spinning my brain rapidly.

‘Who is it? god of battle? No, or is that the god of proof? what the hell… … .’

Who in the world has access to my mental world and what is it here for?

However, the other person’s words continued faster than I thought, even accelerating the accident.

[You don’t have to worry. Hey, I’m not your enemy. ]

and.

“… … you are.”

I shook my hand and turned my head, and I was able to capture the other person’s image in my eyes.

The black robe was pressed so deeply that the face was not visible.

However, I realized that I was a woman through the curves of the body that were clearly revealed and the voice that resonated softly.

But it was just there.

It was difficult to infer who the other party was with the information currently available.

“Who are you?”

So I opened my mouth and asked directly, and the woman answered immediately.

[Even though this situation has been reproduced, you paid a holy war for me, but it’s disappointing to not know. ]

“… … Are you sure you are the god of darkness?”

[Huh, that’s the correct answer. You found the answer faster than you thought. right, right How clever. ]

“… … Do not lay a hand on me.”

I slowly backed away and evaded the outstretched hand of the dark god as if it were admirable.

Even if it is an image world, this place is also a battlefield.

‘If I die on the spot, my mind might collapse.’

Even the gods were quite hostile to me for some reason.

I didn’t have the slightest intention of mingling with something I didn’t know the intention of.

[ … … yeah, it’s not the time yet But you’ll find out soon. that I am not the enemy ]

The Dark God smiled as he said that, and then began slowly backing away.

[Now, the tower is bothering me, so let’s go. Hey, please entertain me as much as you lend me your strength. ]

Soon, when her figure was nowhere to be seen, a whisper rang out.

[From the moment you open your eyes, everything around you will change. ]

Before I could even say anything about that, I realized that the God of Darkness had completely disappeared.

I wondered what the hell he wanted to say, and why he appeared to me.

To be honest, even while I’m doing this right now, I’m probably rolling around as a cold corpse in reality.

‘… … I don’t have time to be like this.’

I grabbed the sword that appeared in the image world right away, drawing attention from the dark god.

and.

“It has been resurrected.”

As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized that I saw the darkness surrounding my whole body.

「Succeeded in becoming an apostle.」

“The quality of a god of death wriggles greatly and reveals its presence.”

“From now on, the divinity dwelling in the heart has the nature of death.”

“All traces of God engraved on challenger Han Seong-yoon will be completely removed.”

Why did the dark god say everything would change when he opened his eyes to see me?

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon is recognized as a pseudo-god during the duration of the apostleization.」

「It becomes possible to exercise temporary authority according to the divine keyword.」

“The keywords for divinity are <death>, <darkness>, and <immortality>.”

At the end of the pleasure that seemed to set fire to my head, my vision went black again.

***

Zerhan Nebia was a born warrior of the twin-winged tribe called angels.

He never got tired of battle until he became a prospective apostle of the Telegraph Church.

It possessed power so strong that it had never even thought of defeat.

He had never felt that he was losing or that it was difficult until he was selected as a reserve apostle while fighting numerous priests.

However, at this moment, Gerhan had no choice but to become weak.

―Keu, kuhah… … . Woo-woo, Woo-woo. Turn off, turn off. Rain, damn it. Su, breath… … .

Zerhan breathed heavily and clutched at his heart.

The divinity bestowed by the god of battle was harassing him as if it would explode at any moment.

It was a problem that arose when he unreasonably cast <Advent> on a preliminary apostle, not an official one.

‘And, indeed… … . Is this the power of the god of battle… … .’

It was a very brief moment when the god of battle descended on Zerehan Nevia’s body.

Even that, without using all his might, he only fired one flash of light right before Zerhan died.

However, in the aftermath of the attack, which was just like clearing out insects, Zerhan’s body was completely mangled.

If it was another preliminary apostle, it wouldn’t be strange if his heart exploded and died right here.

The fact that he is still alive is purely thanks to the body of a born warrior.

‘… … But with this, I received God’s grace, and my holy power became stronger than before.’

While trying not to fall from the sky, Zerhan enjoyed the aftermath of <Advent>.

As if it was rewarding to endure the fact that his heart would have exploded and died, he won great power.

The number of powers that can be used has increased like crazy, and the divine power has also been strengthened to the point where it can now be compared to an official apostle… … .

Zerhan, who was relieved of the pain before he knew it, looked down at the ground with an arrogant face and said,

“… … Now the strongest under the sky will be me.”

The strongest person other than God will be himself.

and.

“The god of battle told the prospective apostle Zerhan to stop talking nonsense and prepare for battle quickly!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zerhan could see a message floating in the corner of his vision.

Zerhan laughed at the urgent message as if he was being chased by something.

―There is nothing to worry about. Now that we’ve dealt with the human called the slayer, the dark religion is no big deal… … .

That was the moment.

Kugu Palace—!

Suddenly, there was a roar from the ground, and the magical energy in the air began to vibrate like mad.

It was such an accident that even Zerhan, who had been greatly strengthened by the aftereffects of <Advent>, had to be nervous.

Zerhan looked down at the ground in a fright.

-What… … . uh, what the hell is this… … .

The ground was enveloped in an unfathomable darkness.

Zerhan shouted as he watched the wave of darkness engulfing even the twilight created by the setting sun.

―Ah, the gods of the dark religion will also descend to this place? Nonsense! There will be no apostles here!

But even that was short-lived.

The darkness that had inflated as if swallowing the ground shrunk around a single point and faded away.

Soon, in the place where the darkness decreased like dots, there was a human figure wrapped in black energy.

[ ─. ]

It was an ominous crystal that seemed to end one’s life just by looking at it.

Zerhan managed to use his divine power to shake off the ominousness and face the black energy.

‘shit… … . what is it that. Why can’t I see it… … .’

No matter how much you try to penetrate the black energy and see the essence, your vision will only become blurry.

But soon, Gerhan realized.

It was certainly a great being, but it wasn’t a divinity.

If he had a godhead, he wouldn’t have been so lazy.

<Advent> is the manifestation of the Godhead in the present world for a very short period of time.

It is impossible to use it for a long time unless you wish for the vessel to contain the power of the gods to die.

—… … It doesn’t matter if it’s not a dark god. There is no one who can stop me now.

Zerhan spread his palms and created a holy long spear that glowed red.

As soon as I implemented the god’s technology, which would not have been possible originally, the fear disappeared.

―I’ll make sure you pay the price for challenging the divine majesty.

Zerhan threw a javelin, his eyes shining with life.

The long spear created by the power of God rushed to the ground, making an ear-piercing sound.

Until that moment, the unidentified black figure stood still.

‘In the end, he was a clumsy being with nothing to look at.’

Gerhan smiled viciously, confident of victory.

Now that black figure will die without knowing his true identity, being pierced by a spear.

I thought it was a fixed ending that couldn’t be overturned anymore.

however… … .

[ … … Swallow. ]

Things started to change in an instant.

As soon as the black figure opened his mouth, the holy spear that was about to be struck like lightning stopped on the spot.

Being bound by the unknown black energy that gathered from all over the place.

Then, the black energy swallowed the Holy Spear as if it were preying on it.

The newly acquired authority of a god had suddenly disappeared.

Seeing the scene, Zerhan made a stupid noise.

—… … uh? uh huh

and.

[ … … Oh, you… ]

The being wrapped in endless darkness looked at Zerhan and said.

[ … … Yes, now I remember. you were my enemy ]

I couldn’t understand.

But there was no need for Zerhan to understand that.

What he said was not meant to be conveyed to Zerhan, but a kind of order.

[ die. ]

I’m sorry-!

Zerhan’s body split in half and splendidly spurted a fountain of blood.
