Boundless Necromancer

360. Seal Break (1)

「Conditions satisfied.」

「Special acquisition of unique characteristics determined by random probability.」

「Absorbs the unique characteristics possessed by Volcano’s No. 1 Sword ‘Cheongun

‘ .」 .

I was already familiar with one of Necromancy’s new detailed effects.

It was all the more so because I had looked at the effect of Tamcheon to check the growth of Necromancy anyway.

―Detailed effect (11) – Covetousness. By consuming spirits, unique characteristics can be extracted with a random probability.

If I had to ask, would it be the final stage of multifaceted ability growth?

So far, each time the level of Necromancy went up one by one, skills or abilities that extracted abilities such as authority were acquired.

This time around, the effect was no different.

‘Is it possible to obtain unique characteristics under special conditions, just as the skills and powers inherent in the spirits were extracted?’

It was even possible to obtain unique characteristics with low probability, such as skill or power extraction.

Just as the existing effects of Necromancy have been able to reap the opponent’s abilities with random probability…

One of the new detailed effects obtained this time, 「Tamcheon(貪天)」, also had a strong tendency to ride luck to some extent.

“…”

And that’s not the end.

Since entering the Trial of the Secret Wish, he has consumed a certain number of spirits, but he has not obtained any unique characteristics through Covetousness.

That means one thing.

…Perhaps “Tamcheon” is that you can acquire unique characteristics with random probability only after meeting special conditions.

‘The activation conditions are more difficult than I thought.’

Of course, it’s not that big of a complaint.

Among the abilities that can be obtained as a challenger in the tower, isn’t it the unique characteristic?

Even if the level of necromancy has exceeded the limit, there is no way that a unique characteristic can be extracted with only one random probability.

‘Still, being able to obtain unique characteristics is a great thing in itself.’

There was no need to be disappointed.

Originally, the unique characteristic was the ability to climb the tower to the end with just one.

It doesn’t change the fact that you can get it in a fixed way, albeit a bit tricky.

If so, it was the same that you could have multiple unique characteristics unlike others, even if it took some time to collect abilities.

‘Then there’s no need to worry.’

And there was a fact that he found out through a duel with Chungwoon, a long-time volcanic leader.

It seemed that 「Tamcheon(貪天)」 would activate only when dealing with enemies with divinity or higher than a certain level.

Perhaps the enemy with divinity and the enemy with that divinity had to reach a certain level or higher to be strong enough to activate the quest.

Of course, there had to be some other possibilities, but they are not very realistic.

‘A rough guess is that enemies with more than a formal godhead will activate Tamcheon.’

At this point, Tamcheon’s value was sufficient.

Even if the activation conditions of Tamcheon were difficult, it was amazing to be able to obtain the unique characteristics inherent in the enemy’s spirit.

Even if you are not a challenger climbing the tower, it is satisfying to be able to acquire unique characteristics by dealing with strong enemies.

‘Now I think I’ve done enough research on Tamcheon…’

Anyway, the higher you climb the tower, the more powerful enemies you’ll encounter, like a formal godhead, over and over again.

「Acquire the unique skill, “Area of the Sword (A).」

“It’s time to focus on this side.”

Only then did I smile at the system message that appeared in front of me.

***

Unique skills.

It’s a skill I’ve never seen before.

Even while climbing the tower, interest arose as it was a skill that had never been obtained even with unique abilities such as skill synthesis.

‘Am I learning the unique characteristics of the challengers selected for the tower by converting them into a type of skill?’

In fact, it takes the form of a unique skill that has never been seen before…

but it wasn’t hard to guess that this was no different from a unique characteristic.

As it was written in the description of the detailed effect of Necromancy, the ability of the detailed effect called Tamcheon was that it could acquire the unique characteristics of others.

In a word, it meant that the shell was just a skill, but it had the temperament of its own characteristics.

“…”

When I actually checked the newly acquired unique skill, I knew right away that my guess was correct.

『Unique Skill – Sword Realm (A)』

『Proficiency – 0%』

『Basic Effect – A special battlefield can be constructed by activating the Sword

Realm .』 The radius can be moved up to three times.』

『Detailed effect (2) – Reduces all damage received within a fixed radius built into the sword realm by 10%.』 『

Detailed effect (3) – into the sword realm. Within the established fixed radius, all stats are increased by 10%.

『Detailed effect (4) – You can foresee the next action of the opponent who enters the fixed radius built into the sword area for up to 4 seconds.』 『Detailed

effect (5) – Within a fixed radius built into the realm of the sword, you can fight with most of your abilities other than the sword sealed. However, the user himself cannot use abilities other than the sword. Immediately after use, a cooldown of 7 days is granted.]

‘What else is this…’

It was amazing.

It was unbelievable that it was a reward obtained by defeating an enemy close to mortals, such as the Volcanic First Sword.

You can foresee your opponent’s actions for up to 4 seconds?

In fact, it is not strange even if it is compared to the concept of divinity.

And not only that, it is power beyond imagination to be able to fight with all abilities increased by 10% within a certain radius or with abilities other than the sword sealed within a certain radius.

‘If it works against a higher level deity, it’s no different from a foul.’

Even if it was a divine power, if most of its abilities other than the sword were sealed, it would have no choice but to be cornered.

‘Of course, if you’re above a higher level of deity, you can undo the ability of the unique attribute…’

There was a little bit of concern, but even taking that into consideration, it’s a great power.

‘That’ll be resolved if I raise my level with something like < Spirit Tuning >, the transcendence myth I have.’

The moment when the unique skill ‘Area of the Sword’ was activated and the effect was confirmed.

「The unique skill, ‘Area of the Sword’ is activated.」

In the blink of an eye, a round area emitting red light spread from where I was standing as a starting point.

After instinctively noticing that it was a kind of indicator line, I felt a new sensation squirm up at once.

The feeling that even if you are a formal god in this realm, you can easily win by using only swordsmanship…

‘Is this the realm of swords?’

Only then did I finish understanding the unique skill, ‘The Realm of the Sword’.

For the time being, the effect not listed in the description within the system seemed to be an overwhelming correction for the sword.

At least within a certain interval formed by the unique skill ‘Area of the Sword’, it seems that the swordsmanship is greatly corrected.

‘It’s fun.’

And in addition, there were many advantages.

For example, it was the foreknowledge of the actions of opponents who entered the realm of the sword, or preventing opponents within a certain radius from using skills other than the sword.

But if there are advantages, are there also disadvantages?

After I finished figuring out the realm of the sword, I realized something, and then I felt a deep regret.

“Even if I move, can’t the area of the sword move along with it?”

It was simple.

…Inherent skill ‘Sword Realm’ does not follow me even if this side moves out of the sword realm after activation.

To put it in a word, it meant that the area of the sword was activated in one place and was no different from the ability to build a camp for the purpose of engagement.

‘Is it a kind of fixed area…’

Then, the vulnerability increases.

Originally, if the opponent’s evasion ability or maneuver ability was superior, it would have been difficult to apply the unique skill ‘Sword Realm’.

However, if you have to activate a unique skill as if you are building a camp for the purpose of engagement, it is impossible to activate the ability unless the opponent comes on your own.

“…”

Still, there was no breakthrough at all.

―Detailed effect (1) – The area where the sword is activated can be moved up to three times.

‘I can move the area of the sword up to three times.’

The fixed radius of the unique skill ‘Area of the Sword’ can be moved up to three times.

After seeing that, I got some strength.

Perhaps it could be used effectively by bringing the sword’s realm here at the point of greatest need during the battle.

At least it will have room to act as one of the hidden daggers.

‘I think it’s enough to use it for the purpose of blocking the opponent’s ability for a while in the middle of an engagement.’

Well, that was enough for now.

As it was, I immediately wiped out the sword’s territory and kicked the ground.

I rose high into the sky in an instant, and I lowered my head and looked down.

“This is an emergency! We have to summon all the disciples and build a medical examination…”

“Damn it. Bring the executioners who went down to the village. Only then will we be able to stop that monster for a moment.”

“Damn it… How could we be suffering the disaster that only Sapa should have to go through…”

A commotion was brewing.

The volcanic wave continued with agitated voices, and conversations full of tension came and went.

Then, standing on his feet in the air, he carefully looked down and saw a face he had seen before.

‘It’s still there.’

He was an elder of the Volcano faction.

I remembered it because I was the one who said it was a freshman or something after seeing me use a heart sword.

With a haggard face, like an old man on the verge of death, he seemed to be hastily giving instructions to his disciples of the Volcano Sect.

“Send a letter asking for support from the Murim Maeng and the Gu File Room! As the elder of the Volcano Sect, I grant you permission! So, Cheongwoon Jangmunin asked me to help him defeat that monster…”

But that’s for a while.

「The authority ‘Shunbo’ is activated.」

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

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

Landing-.

“There is no need for that.”

“…what what what!”

Immediately after that, he used the Power of Shunpo and stood in front of the Volcano Sect Elder.

Seeing me who suddenly appeared, the elder of the Volcano faction widened his eyes in fright and opened his mouth.

As if he forgot what he had to say because he was so traumatized.

Only then did I smile and continued.

“There will be no point in asking for help from any faction now.”

“What the hell is that…”

“Because the victory or defeat of the army has been decided.”

“…”

and then.

“The Volcano faction’s long master has been defeated.”

“It can’t be…”

“And I won.”

“….”

The moment the elder of the Volcano faction closed his mouth in disbelief.

“You know what that means, right?”

As it was, I looked around at the people scattered in the volcanic wave and said.

“The volcanic wave is now over.”

Extinction (滅門之禍).

The volcanic faction faced the cataclysm of extinction.

I put it in my mouth without hesitation and put an end to it.

***

The fuss was settled in an instant.

When they realized that Cheongwoon, the greatest swordsman of Hwasan, had died, they were furious, but it didn’t last long.

Perhaps there was a change of heart in the scene of the volcanic wave that was completely destroyed, but it was rehabilitated (?) to better control anger, and it quickly became quiet.

“The Volcano Wave will be the gatekeeper for the next 40 years.”

“That’s what the heck…”

“Until then, there shouldn’t be any external activities in the Volcano faction, and if you run the Munpa in the volcano, everything will be destroyed again.”

“…”

In fact, I really want to get rid of the Volcanic Faction itself, but…

I heard from Baek Cheon-hyeok, the head of the Baek family, that there seems to be a master who knows about the Volcanic Faction.

Even his personality is to some extent superior to those of the Volcano faction.

Well, even if it’s not that, if the volcanic wave itself is completely destroyed, the position of the Baek family could be difficult.

So, the level of the Bongmun, which is close to the Immortal Gate as it is now, was enough.

Of course, there were people who disagreed with him.

“Where does a psychopath dare to speak recklessly?!”

seven elders.

The seven elders, who were considered the highest masters within the Volcano Faction, were like that.

In fact, at the point where Cheongwoon, the greatest swordsman of the volcano, was defeated by me, the odds of winning were slim, so the seven elders could not stand their anger and expressed their anger.

“Do you think this side will accept that…!”

“Actually, I think even closing the door is a lenient measure.”

“under-! You will! Aren’t you a madman who said that he would destroy the volcanic waves? So that’s what you think!”

“….”

“But the spirit of the volcano is not broken…. Cancer! How plum blossoms bloom even in the snow…! Even if a cold winter comes, the swordsman of the volcano will not give in…!!”

“So what do you mean?”

“Let’s compete!”

And one of the seven elders said with his face flushed red and his mouth quivering.

“Even if the Volcano faction’s leader is defeated, it does not lead to the Volcanic faction’s defeat!”

At this point, I was curious about what bullshit they were going to say, so I kept listening to it.

‘Are you serious?’

In an instant, my mind went blank.

No…

I won a one-on-one match with the great master of the Volcano faction and even won the sword fight, so let’s fight again?

It’s absurd to see me stepping out of my body when I told them to join forces because it’s okay to join forces, and then finally suggesting that we fight.

“….”

Is this the way the Murim people think?

…just like a psychopath.

Still, the shocking aftereffects did not last long.

It was because the faces of the Murim people he had seen while climbing the Tower of Trials flashed through his mind one after another.

‘Come to think of it, most of the Murim people I saw while climbing the tower were like

this.

“you!”

…Is there something wrong with anger control or impulse control or judgment?

“Damn it, you nerd!”

…then there was some need to treat the symptoms of anger dysregulation.

“If you can’t defeat the Seven Elders here, you won’t have anything to take with you!”

and.

“Now I understand.”

“What are you talking about knowing…?”

“All the people here have mental problems…”

“…?”

“Poorly.”

“…”

According to the experience I had while climbing the Tower of Trials, I was like an all-around cure for those who have difficulty controlling their impulses or anger.

“But you won’t have to worry anymore.”

therefore.

“Even if it’s not the case, I’m one of the masters of healing in this area.”

“A master of treatment…?”

“If your head is full of problems, I think I can solve it.”

“…There’s no problem with Bibindo’s head, so how can you say that—”

“It can’t be.”

It could be said that the Seven Elders of the Volcanic Wave in front of you met a good healer.

“Since before, you haven’t been able to grasp the situation and you’ve been talking nonsense, right?”

In fact, there will be no one as skilled as me here in improving anger control disorder.

“No matter how you look at it, it’s true that the elders there have mental problems.”

“What the hell is that…”

“Perhaps after treatment, you won’t be able to talk about the bullshit you talked about earlier.”

“Come on, come on…! wait for a sec…! What the hell are you trying to do…?”

Of course, since the old guru in front of me is a severely ill patient who cannot communicate, physical procedures will be the main focus…

“Mental treatment.”

It didn’t matter.

People say that physical therapy is the most effective traditional medicine.

I feel like I’ve heard that from time immemorial.

…maybe.

‘…don’t say anything.’

In any case, there would be no treatment as appropriate as this to fix their nasty mind.

「Divine < Word of Word > is used.」

「You can use your holy power to influence the real world with words.」 「

However, a lot of holy power is consumed when you use a word that interferes with the logic of the world.」

《 Kneel down. 》

Next moment.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

An overwhelming force slammed into the ground as if it would crush the entire area of the volcanic wave.
