Boundless Necromancer

248. Necromancer (1)

「You have entered the waiting room on the 21st floor.」 As

soon as I returned to the waiting room, I immediately opened my inventory.

Originally, if I had checked all the rewards, I wouldn’t have had to look at the inventory…

Among the items I picked up in the common area on the 21st floor, there were some that I didn’t use right away.

That’s very important too.

「Skill proficiency increase potion」

「Grade: D-」

「Special potion specially prepared by the tower for beings with skills.」

「When taken, the mastery of one of the possessed skills can be increased by 1% at random.」

Some corner The skill proficiency increase potion obtained from a place like a warehouse was like that.

Of course, since the item level is not high, the effect is insignificant.

Still, there were 10 D-class skill proficiency potions.

In other words, at least one skill can increase proficiency by 10%.

Then, it was decided where to use these skill proficiency potions.

『Skill – Unquenchable mortal flame (S-)』

『Proficiency – 94.21%』 『Description – A flame

of calamity that brings about the causal rate of mortality.』 The flame of

mortality

that cannot be quenched was now on the verge of a rank-up.

A state of waiting for only a 6% increase in proficiency.

In response, I drank 6 skill proficiency potions as if pouring them into my mouth.

Then, at the system message that came to mind, he said while wiping the moisture from his mouth.

「You have consumed 6 skill proficiency increase potions (D-).」

「A total of 6% skill proficiency increase is possible.」

「Select a skill to increase your proficiency.

」

next moment.

「Selection complete.」

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s skill, ‘Eternal Flame (S-)’ mastery increases by 6%.」

「Skill ‘Unextinguished Mortal Flame (S-)’ mastery reached 100% 」

「The level of the skill ‘Unextinguished Mortal Flame (S-)’ has risen by one level.」

Unextinguished mortal flame reached 100% proficiency and the skill has grown.

The undying mortal flame has reached an S-class skill.

So I couldn’t help but test its effect.

In response, I immediately focused my mind and activated the skill.

「The skill ‘Unextinguished mortal flame’ is activated.」

Fright…!

A black flame appeared in the empty air and soon shook as if to announce its presence.

In response, I reached out my hand to the black flame that swayed widely, and my eyes widened when I saw that it had transferred to my finger.

It was worth it.

The black flame, which had never affected me until now, was burning like it was eating away at my fingers.

Not even that.

“What is this again…”

Currently, the healing effect applied to the waiting room and the regenerating effect of the gray blood are overlapping.

So even if the finger burns, it should be restored right away….

For some reason, it was not regenerating.

In response, I immediately turned off the unquenchable mortal flame and watched my fingertips for a moment.

“…”

There were unknown traces where the black flame disappeared.

Still, is it because of the experience of divinity to some extent?

I noticed that the traces of this black paint were something close to divinity.

Also, because of this divine power, the power has risen to the point of harming me as the user.

…If you look at it closely, you should say that this is a kind of divine authority.

“Are there any skills that have similar effects to divine powers…”

I was surprised.

An effect like divine power added to the fire that burns everything?

Perhaps, when the unquenchable mortal flame reaches S+ level, it may have the same effect as a real divine power.

Even if 10% of mana was consumed per second, being able to use divine power without cost was a great advantage.

‘I don’t think I can see much effect with the mortal flame that hasn’t been extinguished yet…’

I put a small smile on my lips at that.

‘Still, if I grow my skills, I’ll be worth watching.’

I’m guessing, if I continue to develop my skills like this, wouldn’t it be possible to deal an indelible blow to the Goddess?

I felt that way without knowing why.

The intuition that this unquenchable mortal flame would soon become a lethal power even to the godhead.

In reality, if you get hit directly by this unquenchable mortal flame, even if it’s a god, you’ll take a big hit.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

I was filled with anticipation and immediately drank the remaining 4 skill proficiency potions.

If there is an additional 4% proficiency increase, the magic circuit skill can grow.

So, there was no reason to save skill proficiency potions.

It’s a level that raises the proficiency by at most 4% anyway, but it didn’t seem like it would help much if I saved this kind of thing.

「Selection complete.」

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s skill ‘Magical Circuit (A)’ mastery increased by 4%.」 「

The skill ‘Magic Circuit (A)’ mastery has reached 100%.」 「

Skill ‘Magic Circuit (A)’ has reached 100%.] The grade of ‘(A)’ goes up by one level.」

“With this, the magic circuit skill has now reached A+ level…”

As soon as the magic circuit skill grew, the quality of the magic circuit linked to the blood line increased dramatically.

Could it be that it can handle magic more efficiently than before?

It is a small but satisfying growth.

After thinking that, I took out the Mirror of Faith from my inventory.

「Mirror of Faith」

「Rating: SSS-」

「Completion of Holy Relic: 3%」

「A special mirror created by the God of Proof in the hope that a certain challenger will sprout faith.

」 When it is completed, the mirror of faith also becomes complete as a sacred relic.”

Could it be that the starting point was the defeat of all the enemies without mercy in the common area on the 21st floor?

The Mirror of Faith also achieved some growth as a holy relic.

Even though it’s still only about 3%, the level of perfection will rise significantly if you face an opportunity to grow mentally.

When he put the Mirror of Faith in his inventory, a thought suddenly popped into his head.

‘…Come to think of it, isn’t the ascension effect obtained with < Possibility of Transcendence > close to 50%?’

The ascension effect, which had greatly increased the abilities related to divinity, had already accumulated close to 50%.

It was worth it.

It was because he climbed the tower and defeated countless enemies without even having time to catch his breath.

So it’s no wonder that the percentage of ascensions rose so quickly.

Perhaps, if there is a chance to defeat the enemies greatly, the ascension rate will reach 100%.

But there was a problem.

‘…I can’t guess what I can get even if I reach 100% ascension with < Possibility of Transcendence >.’

It means they don’t know what the ultimate effect of ascension is.

Of course, I know that it will greatly strengthen the abilities related to divinity.

I couldn’t imagine anything concrete about what awaited me beyond that.

I just thought that if I filled the entire percentage of Ascension, there would be truly amazing growth.

“You’ll find out sooner or later anyway.”

If you climb the tower and deal with the godhead and the apostle, < Possibility of Transcendence > will activate without stopping.

Now it was clear that the ascension was not far away.

So, until then, you just have to wait for the answer to this question.

The moment he got up from his seat after organizing his thoughts as if cutting them off.

「The administrator, the Iron Blood Lord, is looking at the challenger Han Seong-yoon.」

Suddenly, the Iron Blood Lord popped up a system message.

It’s like you’ve been waiting for everything to be done.

But there was no time to look at it and be curious.

That’s probably the case too…

「The manager, the Iron Blood Lord, has something to tell you about the secret wish.」

Before asking anything, the other side told me what the main point was.

「The manager ‘Iron-Blooded Lord’ invites you to the manager’s realm.」

That is a very important point that cannot be ignored.

***

「I have entered the world of Iron Blood.」 As

soon as I opened my eyes, the grave of swords piled up in my eyes came into my field of vision.

It looks like nothing has changed.

Feeling a sense of longing for him, as I moved toward my destination, I heard a voice in my ear.

It’s nothing else…

―You are the first challenger who can fulfill the manager’s earnest wish on the 20th floor.

It was Damcheonwoo.

Perhaps there is something I want to tell you about the secret wish…

Dam Chun-wu is a challenger who climbed the tower to the same level as the iron-blooded lord manager.

There was no need not to listen to him, so I opened my mouth while listening.

“Originally, it seems that achieving a manager’s secret wish isn’t easy on the 20th floor.”

-of course. The manager is a challenger who climbed the tower beyond the 40th floor. Is it normal for such people to have unfulfilled wishes that they cling to?

“…”

―It wasn’t until I reached the 28th floor that I could fulfill the administrator’s long-cherished wish. So you better be prepared.

“All right.”

Even after that, Dam Chun-wu told me various things.

It’s not very useful, but it’s worth remembering.

So I listened to him and soon opened the door of the cabin beyond the snowy garden.

And…

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen your face.”

When I entered the cabin, a beauty with red eyes and silver hair greeted me.

「The manager, ‘Iron-Blooded Lord’, smiles at challenger Han Seong-yoon.]

“Challenger Han Seong-yoon.”

To that, I also simply bowed and greeted her.

“Iknow, right. Long time no see. The iron-blooded lord.”

“Still, I’m a contractor in name and color, so I’d like you to show your face a lot.”

“…Even if that’s not the case, I was thinking of stopping by sooner or later.”

“Yes. to lie If the manager hadn’t sent a message, he would have climbed the tower.”

The iron-blooded lord said that with an alluring smile.

Should I say that he is quick-witted like a challenger who climbed the tower beyond the 40th floor?

Originally, I knew that I was going to climb the tower without even thinking about seeing her face.

‘…was it that obvious?’

Thanks to the poker face he learned while climbing the tower, I don’t think he shows his emotions that well…

Perhaps the iron-blooded monarch has a better eye than any other manager.

As if avoiding her eyes, I turned my head and changed the topic.

“Come to think of it, didn’t you say you had something to say about the Secret Garden?”

“Huh. Are you turning the topic like this? It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so you’ve got a lot to hide.”

“…”

“It’s a joke. It seems you are still not used to farming. We have a close relationship with each other under contract, but wouldn’t it be possible to exchange light jokes?”

“Is that so…”

Looking at her smiley smile, I fell silent in my heart.

‘…For being joking, I think he really meant to outwit him.’

But the thoughts didn’t last long.

“So now let’s get to the point. Challenger Han Seong-yoon. My message to you is simple.”

Afterwards, the iron-blooded lord showed a cold expression on his face and brought up the main topic.

“The top touched my secret wish. I don’t know why, but the divine intervention became possible. It is also the intervention of an old deity.”

Then she ran her hand through her long silver hair and continued.

“Perhaps if you challenge the secret wish, you will have to deal with the deity.”

There were no surprises now.

I expected to some extent that the tower would allow the divine intervention.

Now, like a usurper, I can claim victory over a deity who has just formed a status.

It’s probably trying to make manager events like Secret Garden more difficult than individual trials.

So this is a problem in the realm that can be understood.

“Setting aside the fact that the Tower allowed the intervention of the Divine Spirit, how can the Divine Spirit intervene in the secret wish?”

When I quietly asked him a question, the iron-blooded lord replied with a bitter smile.

“…Originally, the world I stayed in was destroyed by a god. We couldn’t stop the invasion of the godhead from another world.”

“I don’t think that…”

“I guess I can guess now. It’s what you think. You… must stop the invasion of the godhead that was in my world in the past.”

“…”

And as she continued, I had no choice but to open my eyes wide.

“Even the tower seems to have embraced the deity that will appear in Secret Garden as the same existence as back then.”

It was worth it.

“Evil god. A godhead who leads countless demons and corrupts all living things. You will have to face the deity.”

evil god.

Following the Giant Tree Labyrinth, he is a divinity who has gained some familiarity in < The Field of Proof >.

It was tantamount to saying that a deity with whom she had a bad relationship to the point of having murderous intentions would appear in her earnest wish.

“And you will have to deal with the true form of the evil spirit, not like an incarnated form.”

Even without any penalty.

***

「You have entered the waiting room on the 21st floor.」

I returned to the waiting room immediately after hearing about the secret wish from the Iron Blood Lord.

She said this about the secret garden.

It’s nothing else…

-There’s nothing to worry about. Such a wish can be fulfilled at any time. So you only think of yourself

He said he would not ask me to clear The Secret Garden anymore.

He said that he would wait here until he gained enough strength.

But after hearing her words, I couldn’t help but feel confused.

Because the ordeal that will lead to catastrophic relations with the managers on the 27th floor is not far away.

‘…Perhaps if I don’t fulfill the manager’s longing before the 27th floor, there may be no opportunity after that.’

Of course, I won’t let the administrators die in the ordeal on the 27th floor.

But after that, I don’t know if I can fulfill my long-cherished wish so that the administrators don’t die.

From then on, it’s a gamble I’m not sure if I’ll succeed.

If so, is there anything I can do for the admins?

“…”

As I was chewing on his lips, I heard Damcheonwu’s words as the Blood Heaven Demon Sword hummed.

―What are you going to do?

His voice was calm and quiet.

– Evil God. If it’s that divinity that built bad ties with you… It’s sure to be a difficult fight.

But I could tell.

Dam Chun-woo also vaguely noticed what I would choose.

At that, I flashed cold eyes and tightly gripped the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword.

“Anyway, a battle without penalty against a godhead is a problem you will have to face someday.”

After delaying the choice and running away, there was nothing to be gained.

“Then there is no need to delay it. The managers’ long-cherished wish will come true. It’s just a few floors away.”

If there is something to be done, it must be done right.

“It doesn’t matter if the old godhead becomes an enemy.”

I gave him a greedy smile.

“I, too, just have to stand on an equal footing with that deity.”

I’m guessing…

“I will enter the 21st floor of the Tower of Trials.”

The growth rate from now on will be different from before.
