The Exiled Necromancer Wants To Create a Bone Dragon - Chapter 52



52 – How to attack the South

It reminded me of a story I heard when Ed was working with Erika to expand the subspace.

‘Is it really Heavy Rock Turtle’s magic stone? no. I saw him take it out of the corpse, so that’s right… . It’s transparent.’

‘Erika, what does it mean to be transparent?’

‘There are no properties. The magic stone that came out of the body of a monster with great power is affected by the monster and its properties change a little, but this is really pure. Ordinary heavy rock turtles would think that they should have the mana of the earth, but this manastone is pure itself.’

Ed thought it was because he was Erica who had handled magic stones much more than he did. I made some simple magic tools at Terut Academy, but I didn’t build any more knowledge than that. And after the work started, Erica said she was very happy.

‘Normally, magic stones would not have been able to expand the subspace. If the magic stone had a special property, it would be difficult to link to the license and it would have been very difficult for users.’

Ever since Ed came to the South, he asked Arrebijou for good materials to expand the sub-space, but he didn’t receive it until he hunted the Heavy Rock Turtle. Hearing Erica’s words, I thought that expanding subspace would have been very difficult even with such things.

‘I’m so glad Erica came.’

‘really? what. Is it because he’s the same necromancer?’

Erica said with a bashful laugh. Although it is correct to classify it as a magic tool maker, Erika also belonged to the Central Necromancer Association. Later, when they went up to the center again, the two continued their research, thinking that they should investigate the Necromancer Association one more time.

“The monsters are different, but the magic stones are of the same nature?”

Hermona heard Ed’s words and asked. Ed took out his necromancer license and put it close to the giant centipede’s magic stone. As if being sucked in by the subspace expansion device, the magic stone’s mana moved slowly, and it could be seen that the secondary subspace was opened.

“Senior Herr, did I tell you about this subspace expansion device? The second subspace has now opened. You can’t take it out without opening the first subspace, but I can’t explain it unless the properties are the same.”

“So you’re saying it’s really an artificially created ecosystem?”

“The odds of the dragons intervening have grown enormously.”

As Ed and Hermona were talking, Glowyn spoke from behind in a slightly trembling voice.

“Hey… can we move a seat? Blood keeps coming out…”

When the two necromancers heard the story, they turned their heads and saw a giant centipede soaking the floor with green bodily fluid from the part where the skeleton knight ripped off the magic stone. Since he was a huge guy, he had already soaked the area around his head with bodily fluids.

“Let’s move and rest a bit. Do you need blood, senior?”

“Yes. I’ll wash it clean and eat it.”

The four of them moved and came to a place where the giant centipede was out of sight. Hermona took water from the subspace, washed Ed’s fingers, and bit into her mouth.

-Chwiyumchuyum

If you sucked your finger, you would only hear that kind of sound.

-gulp

An intermittent swallowing sound came from Hermona’s throat. Ed drank the water, thinking that he was not used to it, even though he had already suffered from blood vampirism hundreds of times. And our eyes met as the two stared at Hermona’s vampirism. Maybe it was because he was caught staring at me, Arebijou said with an awkward smile.

“That. Hmm. Can Ed Hermona’s magic be considered blood magic?”

“Yes. It is blood magic that exerts special power by storing mana in the blood. Just like talent for an attribute, the effects that can be used vary depending on the blood, but Senior Herr can do most of it.”

At that time, Hermona, who had finished her vampirism, removed her mouth from Ed’s finger and said.

“Blood magic majors learn how to exert different abilities through vampirism, but it’s because your blood is strange that you can use one blood to exert multiple abilities. Like junk food, everything is mixed.”

“All mixed up? What do you mean?”

“Ed’s blood can use all kinds of effects such as compression, amplification, and explosion. The power is a little less, but should I say it’s as versatile as the main body?”

It’s delicious there. Hermona didn’t say that. Since his family is a family specializing in blood magic, he has tasted various types of blood since he was young. When I became a sophomore at Terut Academy and chose to major in blood magic, the first thing I learned was vampirism.

So, in a friendly sense, I gave him the nickname Junk Food, and I came closer, but the damn pink hair hit me, cheated, and parted. In a way, he blamed himself, thinking that it was no different than calling Ed to the 7th Guards Corps, making the two of them farther apart and giving them an excuse to break up, but he also wanted to use this as an opportunity.

‘I just came to see how you’re doing. I still have a heart left.’

I looked at Ed while thinking about that, but seeing him washing his fingers with an expressionless face made me a little angry. At first, he blushed and had a cute side, but I felt like he had adapted to it by doing too much while living together in the North.

After recovering mana and physical strength, Ed and his party slowly walked toward the volcano. A group of Desert Lizards discovered Ed and his group and attacked them, but from the moment Ed arrived in the south, they were not enemies from the beginning and he was no longer alone. The zombies summoned by Hermona rushed in and defeated the Desert Lizard and continued to collect the corpse in subspace.

“If I had been to the South earlier, I would have been rich.”

Hermona has more money than Ed because she did not pay the death knight rental fee to Necropolis, but she earned much more money in two days than she saved. There are countless necromancers stronger than him, so how much can such a necromancer make if he decides to destroy the seeds of the ecosystem?

“The two people who sweep it up are strange. The person in the middle tends to practice ‘moderately’.”

When I reached a certain level of income, I became greedy for shares, but after seeing the two necromancers wiping out all the monsters in the south, I got a little tired of Arebizu. Five or six hunters gathered together to catch the Desert Lizard one by one, and Hermona was virtually alone in dealing with them endlessly.

“If too much is released into the market, the price goes down. But it still knocks down a lot.”

As Glowin had ties to merchants, he was worried about oversupply. If I release all the things I put into subspace now, will I be able to receive 3 million Enel? I even had such worries.

The price of the Desert Lizard corpse plummeted as much as expected, and they went to the volcano, but the Desert King Lizard that Ed wanted was nowhere to be seen. Ed, who was walking in deep thought, looked back and said,

“Senior Herr. I’ll try to defeat him.”

“I’m fine? What. Okay. Let’s switch.”

Hermona called the zombies around and put the unhealthy ones into the subspace. As the zombies returned, Ed summoned a Skeleton Knight and wrapped mana in his sword to hunt down the Desert Lizard that came with them.

– Puff! Puff!

-Suddenly!

The Skeleton Knight stabbed the Desert Lizard with his sword, and Ed decapitated him with a single slash. Maintaining the original form as much as possible is good for selling and making it into a zombie, but there was already a large number of corpses in Hermona’s subspace, so there was no need to worry too much. When Ed cut down two groups of Desert Lizards, a large amount of mana was detected.

“You’re here.”

As Edgar moved his gaze to the place where mana was detected, a huge Desert King Lizard began to walk slowly. The Desert King Lizard that suddenly appeared in an open area gave us a little more confidence that this was a subspace. I constantly checked my surroundings while fighting with my eyesight heightened using mana, and it was similar to a necromancer using subspace to extract summons.

The three people who followed Ed’s gaze also found the Desert King Lizard a little later and quickly moved behind Ed. Hermona summoned as many zombies as possible, and Arebijou also prepared to put mana on the sword.

“I’ll deal with you alone so you don’t get caught up in it.”

“Didn’t I say that was the strongest monster in the South?!”

From noble mtl dot com

Glowyn asked in a worried voice, but Ed smiled slightly.

“It’s okay. I’m also one of the strongest in the North.”

After saying that, Ed started running towards the Desert King Lizard with two Skeleton Knights, and Hermona surrounded herself with zombies to defend against the Desert Lizard’s attack.

“Are all super necromancers this reckless? Or is it just Ed who’s like that?”

“Edman is like that. A special necromancer knows that his body is the most important thing, so he doesn’t even show his face on the front lines.”

‘I think it’s bigger than a Gigant-level monster?’

It was about three times the size of the Desert Lizard, and the head seemed a little bigger. However, Ed had clearly learned how to fight huge enemies by cutting down quite a few Gigant-level monsters in the North, so he was not afraid of them because of their size.

Based on my experience fighting many large enemies in the North, I poured mana into the Skeleton Knight’s core, thinking that the best way would be to lower its height if it is large. The Skeleton Knight’s sword began to hover around the same dark blue sword as Ed’s sword.

Ed charged at the Desert King Lizard without stopping, and the Desert King Lizard, with its huge mouth wide open, very quickly stuck its head out. The moment it braked its movements and stepped back to avoid the attack, both of the Desert Lizard’s legs were cut off.

“The height is right.”

-Cow!

With a loud sound, the Desert King Lizard’s head fell to the ground. Vertically split eyes were looking at Ed, and Ed stabbed the sword straight into those eyes.

‘what? There is no stabbing feeling.’

Feels like cutting through the air. And as if to show that it was not a mistake, the Desert King Lizard was engulfed in blue mana and began to shrink in size. A small humanoid skeleton was completed around the magic stone in the center.

A skeleton wearing scale armor and holding a halberd slightly taller than its height, a skeleton that looked much stronger than the skeleton knight summoned by Ed, opened its mouth and spoke. There was no sound, but the meaning was conveyed to Ed through mana.

[Prove it.]
