Boundless Necromancer

284. Hope (2)

I’ve seen gods descend through apostles a few times.

‘The gods of battle and the giant trees I saw in the Labyrinth used Advent…’

The fact that the gods dwelled by exerting power on the body of a follower was certainly strong despite some restrictions.

And that’s to the point that it’s close to impossible for those who don’t have divinity to deal with.

That’s why, when I heard the news that the evil spirit descended on the apostle, I squinted my eyes.

It was because I realized that the situation was more serious than I thought.

It’s nothing else…

‘Maybe it’s a situation where all the other dragons will die.’

Dragons fighting against the evil spirits in the Advent of the Apostles may be annihilated.

It was worth it.

I once witnessed, albeit briefly, the incarnation of an evil god in the < Proof Field > heard in the common area on the 21st floor.

Although he consumed one of the holy relics he possessed and banished the incarnation to the outside…

Still, through the incarnation, he was able to estimate the level of the evil god.

That’s very certain.

‘At least he’s more powerful than the god of battle.’

evil god.

A deity presiding over all evil concepts.

If we were to leave out the skill in actual combat, the evil god was several times higher than the god of battle.

Of course, this division is based on the god of battle who wrote the divine < fighting spirit >.

So, there was no choice but to create tension.

‘So if I used Advent, it would be difficult to deal with dragons.’

It would be the same even if they were the official 4th-class apostles of the Dragon God, an ancient deity.

At least the evil god was able to exert that much power.

To put it bluntly, if you build up a rank several times, you can see the state of an ancient deity.

It is probably an existence that has built up its rank through countless periods of time.

That’s why even if it’s the Advent of the Apostles, there’s no way they’ll be able to compete.

“…”

I kept my mouth shut for a moment and continued my thoughts while touching my chin.

If so, why does the evil god use the advent of the apostles to harm the dragon?

But after thinking about it for a moment, he smiled.

That would be too…

‘…No. There is nothing to think about. The answer has already been decided.’

It is because the purpose of the evil spirit is clearly visible.

They are trying to destroy the protection of the world by killing dragons in various places.

If the dragons die, the end of this world will accelerate further and the evil god itself may appear.

‘Then it’s decided what to do.’

The moment when I completely organized my thoughts about the Advent of the Apostles.

Before I knew it, I realized that the black dragon was watching me nervously, and opened my mouth.

I didn’t have much to say anyway.

Because…

“Let’s go to the place where the apostle descended.”

It’s about what to do, because the conclusion has been reached.

[ …then I understand. ]

And the black dragon nodded and said.

[I will guide you to where the dragons are. If so, ride with me. You’ll be able to move faster than walking. ]

But I shook my head at the black dragon’s words.

“no.”

It was worth it.

“There is still work to be done here.”

It’s because of the remaining work related to the iron-blooded lord.

Currently, she holds the rank of Thousand Commander in the Imperial Army.

So, you should inform the empire that you have acquired the qualifications to protect the world from the black dragon.

At least it wasn’t too late to listen to the answer and move on.

In fact…

“I sent the news of the success of the mission to the Empire via telecommunication.”

Shortly after, the iron blooded lord broke the news.

“…And about you too. But anyway, you are my aide. So you don’t have to worry too much.”

I think he told the Empire about me.

It wouldn’t change much if I told you anyway, so I just said I’d know roughly.

And the iron-blooded lord continued in a low voice as if he was slightly tired.

“And you, who are qualified to protect the world, will have to go and persuade another dragon.”

It’s nothing else…

“Currently, one of the imperial troops is at the place where the dragons are gathered, so you should go there with me.”

An unexpected coincidence of purpose occurred.

“It’s so unfortunate.”

“…?”

“Either way, I was going to make the same offer.”

“What is that…”

Then I smiled at the iron-blooded lord who tilted his head.

“Let’s go together to the battlefield where dragons are gathering.”

has definitely been determined.

The place where the Advent of the Apostles took place.

To go to the place where dragons from all over the world gather.

And thinking that I would enter that bloody hell, my eyes naturally twinkled.

“Now there will be some really fun things waiting for you.”

It was worth it.

It will be very different from the boring battles you’ve tasted so far.

It’s different from now, when the gains were made without damage with overwhelming power as much as possible.

“Really…”

Because…

“Now things are going to be fun.”

The battlefield you will see from now on is where real lives come and go.

***

Unexpectedly, it didn’t take much time to move to the battlefield.

「It has been designated as a target for the advanced magic < Space Leap >.」

It is nothing else…

「Leaps through space to the designated coordinates by using the advanced magic < Space Leap >.

」 It was transferred to another place.

[ Im here. ]

That too in the blink of an eye.

“…”

And before I knew it, I had no choice but to frown when I arrived at the snowfield.

“There is no romance…”

It was justified.

“Isn’t this supposed to come on the dragon’s back?”

It’s a little bit, but I expected to fly high in the sky while riding on the dragon’s back

.

I sighed because I felt like one of my dreams about dragons was broken.

But could the black dragon not understand this romance?

[You want to ride the dragon’s back…? Why are you doing such inefficient work? ]

The black dragon tilted its head as if it couldn’t agree with the statement that there was no romance.

“I guess so. Sungyoon Han. Certainly, it would have taken longer than this if I had come riding a dragon.”

Even the iron-blooded lord said that as if he didn’t understand.

“…”

I can’t understand the romance of taking a dragon with me.

I was a little shocked by that, but I thought it might be.

…No, in fact, it’s hard to even think that that’s possible, but I decided to forcefully convince myself.

[ no. Isn’t it? Why do you have magic and ride a dragon like a beast… ]

But…

[ Do you have a taste for inefficient work? ]

Still, anger about the broken romance of dragons remained.

“Yongyong, be quiet.”

Kwaaaak-.

His fists were clenched in an instant, and the black dragon suddenly changed his words startled.

[ …Come to think of it, it seems like you suddenly want to ride a human on your back. ]

“Isn’t it?”

[ …yes yes. ]

“That’s it. Yong-ah. Let’s do better next time.”

[ …yes. By the way, my name is not Yongyong, but I have a proper name, Tarmion Agnes. ]

Could it be that he intends to betray his master?

[ …no. I will change my name. yes. I have to name it. Just feel free to call me. … so. hey I would like you to lower your fist. ]

…is it an illusion?

“I will.”

At the kindness of the pure black dragon, I smiled.

As the saying goes, there are no bad pets in the world…

Finally, the black dragon seemed to have become docile.

“You… you’re amazing in so many ways…”

And the iron-blooded lord who saw it laughed and said that.

“It was nothing.”

But I wasn’t too puffed up, knowing that humility is the greatest virtue.

Then, after walking for a while in the snowy fields, they headed towards the Imperial Army’s garrison.

It wasn’t that difficult to reach the destination.

After a few minutes, the place where the barracks were gathered came into view.

‘Is this the northern garrison of the Imperial Army?’

However, it was only for a moment that we were satisfied that we had reached our destination.

Why aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

Suddenly, an alarm went off in the direction of the Imperial Army garrison.

very quickly too.

It’s nothing else…

– It’s a de de de dragon…! Gather all of them! A D-Dragon appeared!!

One of the guards who saw the black dragon suddenly sounded the alarm.

And it wasn’t long before a lot of people gathered in one place.

I think he even considered fighting against the dragon…

The moment a blonde male with the highest rank appeared.

“…Canary Rugfeld. You really brought a dragon.”

Suddenly, the situation was resolved when the name of the Iron Blood Lord was called from the other side.

The man with the radiant blonde laughed as if he was dumbfounded, and soon his eyes shone coldly.

Then, in a solemn voice, he saw the soldiers gathered in one place and gave instructions to return.

“Nothing to worry about. I heard that they are all allies of the Imperial Army. Let each one return to his original position.”

There had to be a little fuss, but is it still an army?

The imperial army, which had gathered in a tumultuous way, returned to its original position.

And a man with brilliant blond hair narrowed his eyes as he approached us.

“I had to listen through the magic tool for communication, but I didn’t know you would really bring a dragon.”

and.

“Is it seeing your face after a year? It’s been a while since I’ve seen you. Canary Rugfeld.”

next moment.

“My brother.”

There was a violent shaking in the iron-blooded lord’s eyes.

***

Canary Rugfeld.

Was it because he didn’t know that the iron-blooded lord had another blood relative?

Suddenly, dizziness arose in my head, adding to my confusion.

More so because I had never thought about it before.

‘A younger brother…’

The man with the brilliant golden hair was the older brother of the iron-blooded lord.

Even the iron-blooded monarch did not deny this, so there was no doubt about it.

But it was only for a moment that he was so dazed.

It’s not different…

“…I will. Brother Glioth. long time no see.”

The iron-blooded lord frowned and said as if half-forced to answer.

It was a tone uncharacteristic of an iron-blooded monarch who often uses high-handed tone.

She was also expressing her feelings as if she was uncomfortable or frustrated.

But the blond man called Glioth answered calmly.

“I heard the news through the magic tool for communication. You said that your aide persuaded the Black Dragon-sama.”

“…yes.”

“It is truly amazing. I knew you could do it, but I didn’t know you could do it this fast.”

“…excessive praise… That’s it.”

Glioth smiled and continued talking.

“Although it can be said that being good with people is definitely your ability.”

But…

“It’s funny to see him covet the emperor’s seat so ugly.”

Glio’s eyes weren’t smiling at all.

A strange look contrasted with the smile on his lips.

That’s why the hostility toward the iron-blooded lord was vividly felt on Glioth’s face.

But rather than that, it was said that he coveted the position of emperor.

‘Emperor?’

I couldn’t understand why Emperor Wen’s name suddenly appeared.

Wouldn’t it be like starting a revolution in the empire and usurping the throne?

But I can know the truth without having to understand anything about him.

Glioth smiled and immediately turned his head and looked at me once.

“You are an aide who has been appointed to assist your younger brother.”

It’s nothing else…

“Nice to meet you.”

He found out why the position of emperor was mentioned in Glio’s mouth.

“My name is Glios Rugfeld, the prince of the Empire and a thousand chief of the Imperial Army.”

That’s very certain.

‘…is that so.’

It was only now that I understood the situation properly.

‘…Was the iron-blooded monarch an imperial princess?’

It was worth it.

Having the same lineage as the imperial prince meant that her birth was special.

I just didn’t know because she never told me.

Realizing such a new fact, I immediately opened my mouth.

“…Han Seong-yoon.”

“That’s a very unique name.”

“Is that so.”

“…Certainly like a strong man, I also really like the sincerity without formality. Usually, if you say the prince, you’re going to feel uncomfortable. Be great.”

Despite the lack of response, Glio’s smile grew deeper.

The benevolent appearance of the royal family, as if drawn in a painting.

But I could see the smile on Glio’s lips twitch slightly.

And also that there are words with thorns hiding between words and words.

“It looks like a clan that committed a mistake somewhere and lived in seclusion…”

And.

“So it feels kind of mysterious because it seems so far removed from more common sense.”

The thought that he seemed to be disapproving of me soon changed from doubt to certainty.

‘Crazy guy.’

sure

Currently, Glioth is casting an advanced spin with a smiling face.

That too is very unpleasant.

It’s just that after turning it around, it doesn’t catch the pod with adornment that says it’s great or mysterious.

In fact, Glio’s subsequent words were full of hostility.

“I don’t know why someone who can tame a black dragon helps my brother.”

Are they not even going to hide their intentions anymore?

“ah…! nope I made a mistake. sorry. I’m still too short to fit in the seat…”

Glioth has been making remarks that cross the line as he becomes more and more silent.

“He’s a younger sister with a beauty that could be called the flower of an empire, but Han Seong-yoon-nim certainly deserves attention.”

It’s as if he’s trying to figure out where the boundary of the backlash is.

In fact, Glio’s eyes were stained with hostility and inquisitiveness.

He probably wants to know about someone strong enough to tame a dragon.

That’s why I’m trying to find out about humanity in this way.

“iced coffee. However, the appearance of a person is also important. I also respect Han Seong-yoon’s choice.”

By the way…

“But my younger brother is a bit picky, so I don’t think he would suit Han Seong-yoon.”

There was one thing the foolish prince did not know.

“If you expect anything from my sister as a woman, I have a suggestion.”

It’s nothing else…

“Han Seong-yoon. How about assisting me? If so, I can achieve what Han Seong-yoon wants…”

“Prince.”

“?”

It means that I don’t care whether it’s a good or a prince.

Anyway, I’m not a person in this world, and I’m not in a position to be bound by such things.

So I thought I should let Glios know that he was misunderstanding something.

“Excuse me, but I have a question for you.”

“…yes?”

“Do you want to commit suicide?”

“?”

Right away…

“From my point of view, the prince seems to want to die right now.”

It tells you what will happen if you carelessly play with your tongue.

“Excuse me, but can I help the prince commit suicide?”

“…to?”

“Still, I’m an elite in this field, so I should be able to finish it painlessly.”

“…that that that that?”

“In a word, this is it.”

That’s very certain.

“I thought I was going to have no choice but to break your head.”

In the blink of an eye, Glioth’s face turned white and contorted.
