Boundless Necromancer

222. Climber (5)

「The skill ‘Focus on Combat’ is activated.」

In the blink of an eye, I immediately accelerated my thinking through the Focus on Combat skill.

In a world slowed down like a slow video, I quickly continued my thoughts.

‘…driving me crazy. I didn’t expect anyone to recognize my identity on the 19th floor stage.’

Unexpectedly, things turned into a lot of headaches.

That’s a lot too.

It was worth it.

Because Dam Seon-mook, the current head of the Blood Demon Church, judged me to be a fake without hesitation.

The final boss of the 18th floor stage, the usurper, had external intervention, but

this time there was no external intervention at all.

‘…Perhaps Dam Seon-muk doesn’t think of me as a challenger from the tower.’

However, regardless of the fact that he was a challenger to the tower, the biggest thing was that he was no longer the heir.

That would be the case too…

Because one of the conditions for clearing this 19th floor quest stage is ‘to be recognized by everyone as the next leader of the Blood Demon Church’.

It was good to see that half of the quest was already a failure.

「The manager, ‘The Defeated Heir of the Blood Demon Cult’, is very embarrassed by the current situation.」

In fact, even the person who requested this < Blood Ceremony > quest acted impatiently as if he did not know this would happen.

‘It turns out he’s not even the successor, so there’s no way he’ll be recognized as the next religious leader.’

Of course, since it is a quest that replaces the 19th floor ordeal, there is no penalty even if you fail…

But I couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

Maybe because of this clear failure, I might never be able to accept the < Bloodborne Ceremony > quest again.

If that happens, all the rewards that can be obtained from this < Bloodline > quest will go back to the ball.

In response, I tried to come up with the best possible number by quickly continuing my thoughts like rolling a snowball.

and.

‘It can’t be helped.’

At the end of my thoughts, I immediately turned off my combat focus with a feeling of half-desperation.

「The skill ‘Focus on Combat’ is deactivated.]

As the saying goes, you only need to go to Seoul even if you go to Moro…

The quest < Blood World > is also enough if the conditions for success are met anyway.

Then there was no need to obsess over the other person’s false identity.

Because…

“…as you guessed, I am not your son. But that’s not why you can’t be the next leader.”

The conditions for success were ‘to be recognized by everyone as the next head of the Blood Demon Church’ and ‘to be recognized by everyone for martial arts at the Blood Ceremony’.

This is because there are people who have to admit everything, so it’s a condition that exists.

So, it means that there should be no people who do not recognize as the next leader and those who do not acknowledge martial arts…

Then the solution is simpler than you think.

“If I kill everyone in this room anyway, then I’ll be the next head of the Blood Demon Church, right?”

Because it can be solved by massacring the people on the 19th floor stage.

***

「Accomplished the achievement ‘Invention to break the mold’」

「Magic power increased by 1」

Among the conditions for the success of the < Bloodborne Ceremony > quest, the biggest hindrance was the phrase ‘to be recognized by everyone’. .

Originally, he had intended to be recognized by everyone forcibly with his overwhelming skills, but… It is

because the circumstances turned out to be more twisted than expected, and it became impossible to be recognized at all as it was revealed that he was not even a successor at all.

Recognition is impossible.

But there was still a way to survive.

Exactly…

‘On this 19th floor stage, I just need to kill everyone except for the people who can recognize me.’

Negative judges are all excluded.

Among the conditions for the success of this < Bloodborne Ceremony > quest, it is sufficient if there are only a few people who can recognize me as the next leader.

There are a lot of people, so that minimum requirement can be met.

So, I didn’t want to immerse myself in the concept given to me anymore, and I closed my eyes while holding the twin swords tightly.

‘It doesn’t matter whether it’s a degree or an apostle, as long as the results are the same.’

Of course, I don’t know if this will succeed or fail, but shouldn’t I struggle until the end?

Dam Seon-muk laughed at him as if he was dumbfounded, and then opened his mouth.

“…Amazing. I wondered what it was because it seemed to roll my head for a while. I never thought you would have thought that way.”

He shook his head and continued.

“I don’t know why someone like you is so obsessed with being the next leader. I don’t think a monster like you is worthy of being obsessed with the next head of the Blood Demon Church.”

“Even if I tell you, you won’t understand.”

“Hmm. Got it. Then there is nothing you can do.”

“…”

Unexpectedly, Dam Seon-muk neatly stopped asking why he was aiming for the position of the next leader.

Instead, he tilted his head the other way, touching his chin as if he was more interested.

“Rather than that, I wonder who the hell you are.”

Dam Seon-muk continued with his eyes shining like a beast that found a new toy.

“Where did a monster like you come from? That’s what I’m really curious about.”

“Does knowing that change anything?”

“To some extent. For example… I see. We might be able to designate you as the next headteacher.”

“What is that…”

I looked at Dam Seon-muk with my eyes wide open.

It was worth it.

I’m not even the heir just because I know my identity, so I’m going to hand over the position of the next head of the church?

It was absurd.

However, judging by the fire dragon’s eyes, he wasn’t really lying.

Dam Seon-muk was sincerely saying that he could hand over the position of the next leader even if he was not the successor.

“Are you saying you’re handing the next leader over to someone you’ve never met?”

“If you really want to be the next headteacher without any ill intentions, that would be the case.”

“…”

“You look like you don’t understand.”

“…isn’t it natural? Giving up the position of the next teacher just because you know a little bit about him. There’s no way you can understand it with common sense—”

Just before the words continued, Dam Seon-muk smiled and asked in response as if he was dumbfounded.

“Then do you understand why you act so absurd?”

“…”

There was nothing else to say.

Like he said, if I look at it through the eyes of others, I don’t do things that make sense.

“Just as you have reasons you cannot explain to others, I also have reasons that cannot be explained.”

After saying that, Dam Seon-muk narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“If I had to explain it, I’d give up the useless position of being the next leader and do battle with a monster like you.”

“For just that reason, you’re handing over the position of the next leader…?”

“But is it a problem?”

“….”

Really…

he is an eccentric freak.

But there was one thing I could be sure of.

‘That’s not to say I’m not a mindless geek.’

Currently, Dam Seon-muk was thinking of taking advantage of me.

So, he must have said that he would give up the position of the next leader without hesitation.

Of course, I couldn’t read the exact image because I read the emotions revealed on his surface through sensory reinforcement.

I can only guess that there is such a thought by feeling a deep greed.

In the first place, since the ordeal was over, I didn’t even want to know his deeper thoughts.

-ha. I could never have thought that the descendant of the principal would be such a madman among madmen. I have a headache.

I also implicitly agreed with Dam Chun-wu’s deplorable words.

It certainly wasn’t sane.

But I liked the fact that I didn’t have to gamble with the annoying quest failure.

Because of that, I gave up making a mess right here and decided to listen to him more.

“But it doesn’t mean that I will give you the position of the next leader without any conditions.”

“…I knew it. I am willing to accept the conditions to some extent, so please tell me quickly.”

“It is. Well, it’s not a big deal, but I’m thinking of putting three simple conditions as much as possible.”

“Is that so.”

In response, I immediately noticed that the conditions that Dam Seon-muk would present were not that simple.

He will be like that too…

“First, I will fulfill some of my responsibilities as the next leader.”

This is because the senses reinforced by numerous abilities told me.

“The second is to prove as much as possible that you have no ill intentions.”

In other words, Dam Seon-muk is showing an infinitely strong sense of holiness.

“The third is to risk your life and fight with me to prove your credentials as the next leader.”

Only then did I realize

“Would you accept it?”

He had no other complicated greed.

“If you accept this condition, I will give you the position of the next leader of the Blood Demon Church.”

He was simply hoping for a fight that he risked his life on.

If it’s really like a Murim person, should I say that it’s a reason to say that I’m like a Murim person?

To be honest, even though I couldn’t fully understand it, it was possible to understand it somehow.

The Murim people I’ve seen so far were originally such a people with a strong sense of war.

I answered him right away.

“…I will accept the terms.”

and.

“That’s good news from what I’ve been hearing.”

next moment.

“Please prove your strength enough to get the position of the next leader.”

Quaaaaaaaaaa!

Dam Seon-Muk’s body exuded a bloody aura with overwhelming power.

***

Blood Demon God.

The best of the best of the best that can greatly increase the body’s regenerative power and use the ability to control blood.

This was a martial art that he had previously learned through Damcheonwu.

Until now, I thought that I had used it well by using it as an addition to the Power of Blood Heaven, but I thought that it would not be as good as that.

―…Still, even if it rots, a blood horse is a blood horse. That’s great. It’s not common for a madman to learn blood demon magic to the extreme.

The red energy currently scattered by Dam Seon-Muk was comparable to the Heavenly Demon seen on the 17th floor.

In fact, even Damcheonwu moaned and acknowledged the power of Damseonmuk.

At that, I narrowed my eyes and immediately activated my authority.

Now it is because I felt the need to raise the output to some extent.

「The power of ‘Heolcheon Deep Gong’ is strongly activated.」

And at the same time, bloody energy also surges from my body.

It is as if the body has become a steam engine.

Seeing this, Dam Seon-muk laughed as if he was interested.

“Even if it’s basic martial arts, I learned the martial arts of the main school…”

He said excitedly with red eyes.

“haha! That means you are one of the main school’s members! Yes, this would have proved that there were no ill intentions!”

crazy sound.

In the first place, even if I wasn’t the real Dam Yu-jun, the fact that I participated in the blood-related ceremony was itself impure.

It must be all the more so since all the other successors of the Blood Demon Church died because of that.

Of course, explaining that I have no impure intentions has already passed.

Still, saying this is tantamount to showing that he is obsessed with me.

In fact, Dam Seon-Muk raised the red magic even faster, as if none of that mattered.

“Then it’s time to prove your skills!”

next moment.

At the edge of the strengthened senses, I felt a red divinity suddenly sway in Dam Seon-Muk’s heart.

I already knew what that meant.

It was a sword of the heart.

「Myth < Last Savior > is activated.」

「The effect of < Salvation > is activated.」

「All stats are permanently increased by 4.」

「The effect of < Savior > is activated. 」

「Since there are currently 49972 followers, the holy power is greatly enhanced.」

Whoa!

In response, I strengthened the divine power with the < last savior > and released the divine power to the outside.

So-so-so-!

And from that point, the divine power released to the outside became extremely cold and flew around.

It was a divinity replacement ability previously obtained through the Ascension effect.

In the blink of an eye, the non-stage froze, and in the blink of an eye, the shot of the spirit sword was canceled without a trace.

The divine power reinforced by mythology was now enough to erase even the spirit sword with momentum.

「The authority ‘Winter King’ is automatically activated when the conditions are met.」

「All stats are amplified by +10% and the user is not affected by cold at all.

」 Powers were additionally activated.

Suddenly, feeling the vitality in my body, I immediately stamped my feet.

「The power skill ‘Grace of Wind’ is activated.」

「All speeds increase by 80%.」

「Current skill stacking progress – [8]」

Then, I became a gust of wind and fired, and Dam Seon-Muk’s mouth was extremely wide. Soared.

“Yes! It should be this much…!”

But that was only for a moment.

「The authority ‘Shunbo’ is activated.」

「A cooldown is applied to the power for 10 minutes.」

「Consumes holy power to instantly move to a desired point within sight.」

In fact, running with the Grace of the Wind is a fake.

It was close to not noticing the signs of the activation of Shunbo.

In fact, Dam Seon-muk’s eyes widened in the blink of an eye, but my left hand touched his torso faster than that.

Of course, Dam Seon-muk quickly twisted his torso without saying a word, reducing the damage to the extent of brushing it… but

it didn’t matter too much.

「The usurper’s Leather Gloves (SS+) exclusive effect, ‘Forced Skill Borrowing’, is activated.」 「

Designate one of the other person’s skills and borrow that skill for 10 minutes.

」 One of the opponent’s skills is randomly assigned.」

「The skill ‘Intangible Sword (SS-)’ is forcibly borrowed from the opponent for 10 minutes.」

Anyway, the main topic was this way.
