Boundless Necromancer

179. In-depth (5)

The knight in black armor put his hand on his chest and introduced himself.

“The name of this body is Berhag. Demon king in human form. Say your name too.”

It’s been a while.

‘There are other Moorim people who introduce themselves like a psychopath.’

It’s absurd, so it makes me laugh.

It reminded me of Ares’s knight whom I met for the first time while climbing the tower.

It was even more so when I saw that he was spouting lines that made him cheesy even because he was a demon king in human form.

But there was nothing bad to see.

He would be like that too…

‘Even if it wasn’t so, I thought I should have a guide, but that worked out.’

Because it can be used like this.

I immediately sent a telegram to the teammates behind me using the magical power in my body.

―I will take care of it myself, so everyone please wait.

It was a request to wait for now without having to step out.

If I didn’t listen to something, I tried to explain it separately, but fortunately that didn’t happen.

Only then did I open my mouth and answer Berhag’s question.

“I am Han Seong-yoon.”

“Hoo. I thought it would be a challenger to the Moorim world. There were so many strong people 100 years ago…”

“Enough, to the point.”

“…?”

“I want to know what the main point is.”

I think the name caused some misunderstanding, but I didn’t want to drag the conversation on.

However, Berhag spoke in an unpleasant tone, as if he did not like this pragmatic conversation.

“The subject possessing the power of the demon lord has no dignity to the point of being dirty.”

“We are opponents to fight each other, but there is nothing to talk about at length.”

“….”

“And we’ll be able to have enough conversations later anyway.”

“…What are you talking about again? Is it possible to talk later?”

Berhag asked with a questioning voice, and I immediately responded with a grin.

“Because you will obey me anyway.”

And…

“Ha! On the topic of a demon king in human form…! Are you underestimating this Berhag!”

Then, demonic energy flowed through the cracks in Berhag’s armor, and a system message came to mind.

「Labyrinth Achievement ‘Rare of Provocation’ has been activated.」

「Labyrinth score +4 points obtained.」

Unexpected labyrinth achievements are also labyrinth achievements, but there were also other types of messages.

「You are gradually poisoned with demonic energy by the authority ‘Demonic Erosion’.」

「Currently, the demonic erosion progress is 1%.」

Maybe the demonic energy emitted from the armor was to activate this authority?

The outward appearance is armed with armor like a medieval knight, but such an obscene power…

‘Monsters are monsters.’

I couldn’t help but smile at him.

“Whoa ha ha! Struggle as much as you can! Even the demon lord won’t be able to withstand the demonic energy of this body!”

That’s probably the case too…

「The skill ‘King of Demons’ is activated.]

「Absorbs all demonic energy and converts it into magic.」

Despite telling me that I am the Demon King, I am serious about myself. Because I didn’t know enough to do it.

“You should feel with your own skin that the Magi who received it directly from the Demon God is of a different rank!”

It was funny how he shouted out loud without knowing that he had converted all of his demonic energy to magical power a long time ago.

‘Things like that happen, too.’

Well, I didn’t care that much.

‘Because anyone has a plausible plan.’

Until one hit.

***

Tak Tak Tak…!

“Damn it.”

Carbett tapped the table with her bony fingers, revealing her uneasiness.

Emotions he hadn’t experienced in decades echoed through his bones and whispered to him.

I don’t know why, but something seems very wrong.

“It should be because of my mood…”

Of course, he also rationally thought that the challenger couldn’t cause a problem.

It was because the Berhag line could handle at least the existence of those who had just awakened to demons.

Of course, even if he was called a new demon king, he had the power to dominate, but Berhag’s demonic energy would be stronger than that of a newly born demon king.

‘Magi of different temperaments collide like crazy.’

Being a Magi was tainted with fighting from the very essence.

Therefore, when different demons meet, it is standard practice to fight until one side disappears…

According to that reason, the demon of the new demon king will disappear from the demon of Berhag, who has been trained for over 100 years.

‘Even if he’s a demon king, he’s just a challenger, so he won’t be able to defeat Berhag with his magic.’

The challenger regains strength by going down the floor, but the current number of floors was only 4.

The specifications of the challenger before entering the 5th floor, which is classified in earnest in the deep section, are insignificant.

So there’s nothing to worry about, Carbet reassured herself.

But that was only for a moment.

“Ka Karbet-sama… I’m sorry, but it seems that all the dark wolves are dead…”

Carbet was shocked by the news of the sudden death of the monsters.

“Why do things that even have authority die?”

“That’s what I’m good at…” ”

…”

“Ha, but Lord Berhag is gone, so the challengers will be dealt with soon!”

It was a moment when Carbett felt tremendous anxiety.

Gggg…!

Suddenly, around the castle gate, I felt some kind of vibration, and people started to rise.

At that, Richard’s pale face, characteristic of a vampire, turned bright.

“It looks like Lord Berhag has returned!”

“Sir Berhag…?”

“yes! Feel this magic! It looks like you’re tired from the fierce battle, but it’s definitely Lord Berhag’s demon!”

“…”

Now Carbett said nothing, and only Richard cleared the awkwardness with his chatter.

And soon, when the door to the castle room opened, a knight wearing the armor of fear appeared.

It was Berhag.

As soon as Richard saw him, a smile came to his lips and he said in a voice filled with joy.

“As expected, Sir Berhag! I had no doubt that you would win! You are wonderful!”

But…

what I heard soon was neither a report that the battle had been won, nor a boastful voice full of pride.

“You didn’t win?”

After hearing an astonishing voice from behind, which was covered by Berhag’s unnecessarily large armor

.

“do… net… Hit…”

It was undoubtedly the cry of a man in fear.

thud!

At the end of those words, Berhag’s body collapsed and the human figure beyond it appeared.

“I didn’t win, but this guy was also captured.”

It was Han Seong-yoon.

At this, Richard belatedly screamed in amazement.

“Heh heh! Sir Be Berhag…! No bastard! You know who the person here is, and you dare…!”

But Carbet, on the contrary, acted calmly.

“You look stupid! reheart! You’re not the kind of person to be humble!”

Carbett emitted a blue light where her eyes were supposed to be, and jumped up from her seat.

And…

he approached Han Seong-yoon in an upright position without any shaking, and knelt down as it were.

It’s also very natural.

dump…!

“The king of all demons! This Carbet will serve you! Please take care of this lowly servant!”

One timing was a staggering submission.

***

It was strange to see Richie lying face down with her head bowed out of the blue.

“….”

Should I say I feel like a villain in a novel?

‘I don’t know why they treat people like villains like this.’

The real villains are these guys who are ready to kill people, but for some reason, the composition seemed a little strange.

Of course…

“Can’t you stop doing useless performances?”

If even this could be used, I had no intention of rejecting it.

“If it bothers you, I will do so…”

“Ah, and tell the vampire who is called Richard to bring my comrades from outside the castle.”

At that, Carbett flinched, then nodded and gave an order to Richard.

“…All right. Richard. Bring the demon lord’s colleagues from outside the castle. Be as polite as possible.”

At those words, Richard trembled, glanced at me, and left the castle room as if running away.

With this, I now have time to talk to Richie slowly…

I got to the point without wasting time.

“Why do all the monsters on the 4th floor have divine power?”

It was the question I had when I first encountered the skeleton.

Why do monsters without intelligence possess divine power?

I wondered where this divinity was paid.

By the way…

“That’s all the grace given by the Dark Lord, the prospective apostle.”

An unexpected person suddenly appeared.

“Dark Lord…?”

“Yes…. This is the monarch who lives downstairs. In the past, he was the demon king I served.”

“Did the prospective apostle have that much authority?”

“It’s not like that, but it has that much authority within the giant tree’s labyrinth.”

In the giant tree labyrinth, you have enough authority to directly grant divinity.

I was intrigued by that fact and immediately asked a few questions.

“Why do you have that much authority in the giant tree labyrinth?”

“That’s right… This labyrinth is the place where the gods compete.”

“Competition…?”

“Ah, since you’re a challenger, you might not know much about the giant tree labyrinth.”

“Explain in more detail.”

“The giant tree labyrinth is a place where various gods take challengers as their followers and compete based on them.”

A great speech erupted.

「The labyrinth achievement ‘Legend’ has been achieved.」

「The labyrinth score +100 is obtained.」

As if to prove it in practice, a labyrinth achievement that has never been seen before has been achieved…

「[HP] and [MP] ] The total amount

of [HP] and [MP] increases considerably.

‘…It’s not a lie.’

Considering the altar seen from the first floor, the giant tree labyrinth must have been a contested place for the gods, as this lich claimed.

I asked him more about this and that, but the answer that came back was not satisfied.

“More than this, I don’t know…! You must be familiar with the dark lord…!”

This answer did not change even though he threatened and asked.

So it would be right to know nothing more.

“…”

I immediately shut up, and Carbet quickly continued.

“Of course, the only ones who can receive divinity are those with demonic energy, and even the dark lord cannot sprinkle divinity indefinitely.”

It seems that it will be difficult to get more information at the moment anyway….

First of all, I threw a new question in order to achieve the initial purpose.

“Then, are all the monsters in this hierarchy endowed with divinity?”

“That’s right. It took a long time to infuse the divinity, but they are the elite of the bestowed with divinity!”

As if bragging, Carbet said so.

“These elite monsters will be of great help to the Demon King’s power!”

I feel like I’m proud, but maybe that pride won’t last long.

That would be…

“Bring it.”

“…yes?”

“Bring all the monsters who received the divinity.”

“Why are you suddenly asking me to bring it…”

Because I have no intention of keeping these monsters alive.

“From now on, I will kill them all.”

This is the beginning of the Divine Harvest Nogada.
