Boundless Necromancer

Episode 365, The Conqueror (1)

Before I knew it, I realized that my long-cherished ordeal was coming to an end.

‘Did the strong men who reached the point where they had nowhere to go further in Murim said it was the Five Days of Heaven?’

It was worth it.

In fact, as Gwang-gae said, if the top-class strongmen called the Heavens and Five Seasons are aiming for me, this will be the last battle I will face in this world.

Of course, I still haven’t been able to recoup all the minor gains that could be found everywhere in Moorim…

Anyway, now, the huge powers of the Volcano and Jongnam factions plundered without leaving a single grain of rice, so I had no regrets.

‘…Maybe I can’t get any more honey-like elixirs or treasures from this place anymore.’

I smiled at him.

Somehow, I got a lot of benefit from the ordeal of my longing, but that is over now.

Only then did I enjoy the growth by changing the treasures of openness on the table into a handful of divine power or ability.

「The Seal of Offering (SS-) exclusive effect, “Offering(供養),” is activated.」

「Received 11 items from yourself.」

「Replaces the corresponding items with divine power and accumulates them in the heart.

」 It seems that the power level of divine power will go up soon too…’

Should I collect the dust and call it a mountain?

It seemed that the divine power that had been gathered in various ways, as tenaciously as possible, would soon rise to the next level.

And not only that, but based on growth skills such as the skill ‘Steel Feed’, all of his ability levels had also reached a high level.

‘Physical abilities and magical powers are also likely to grow significantly.’

Of course, there are limits.

Virtually all of the stats obtained with stat penalties are adjusted at the end of the ordeal, except for achievement rewards.

In any case, achievement rewards increase certain stats on a fixed basis, so there is nothing to touch on the tower, but stats that are not a fixed increase method are tuned after the ordeal is over.

Perhaps the skill ‘Steel Feeding’ or the growth of all stats obtained through Necromancy would be like that.

“…”

But it didn’t matter.

Currently, I’m in a state where I’m not restricted by towers, and all of my ability levels have reached incredible numbers.

Even if it is a small increase in stats, it can be said that the efficiency is completely different from the days when he was a challenger on the lower floors of the tower.

‘It’s something I’m looking forward to when I go back to the tower.’

Only then did I get up from my seat with a light smile on my lips.

“I’m leaving.”

and.

“Are you really going? I don’t think you’re going to open the door…”

“That’s right.”

“…”

So I finished my work before leaving the opening.

“Opening is a gate for 40 years, just like any other school.”

“yes? That’s just too harsh…!!”

Of course, it was not easy to accept that decision, but Gwanggae had to complain.

“okay? don’t hate Just because I break all the openings and that’s it. Then there’s really no need to keep you alive…”

“…I’ll visit you. ha ha ha. When I think about it, it seems like a very generous treatment. It is also a great mercy. cancer. Not like that.”

“yes?”

“…”

One, and that for a while.

Did Gwanggae realize at some point how much ‘consideration’ I was giving him?

Suddenly, Gwanggae broke into a cold sweat and soon accepted the offer with a lifeless, empty smile.

I smiled at him and quickly got out of the open building and decided where to go.

“Is the end approaching now…”

It wasn’t that difficult to choose a destination.

In fact, wherever I went, I openly said that I came from the Baek family.

If so, it was obvious where the people called the Five Days of Heaven would come.

There were still a few intact munpa in the old file room, but it seemed like there was no need to take care of them anymore.

“Now, should I finish warming up at this point?”

It was worth it.

“Five seasons in the world…”

If you ask me, isn’t it the enemies called the five seasons in the world that can be said to be the final boss in the ordeal of the earnest wish?

“I look forward to it.”

So…

【The Folding Vortex】

“What kind of loot can I get from the Five Seasons of Heaven?”

This time, it’s time to put an end to the ordeal for real.

***

Folding vortex.

The essence of space leap made of black magic that only I can use.

As soon as it was activated, the scenery in front of me changed in an instant and I arrived at the Baek family.

‘Is there anything that has changed…’

I looked at the Baek family and smiled bitterly.

‘It’s a messy atmosphere.’

It was worth it.

Originally, the Baek family was inevitably destroyed in history and disappeared from Murim.

Even if I saved the Baek family from a situation of extinction, that could not completely calm the Baek family’s confusion.

‘Perhaps the situation would have been more serious if I hadn’t prevented extinction.’

Actually, this didn’t mean much either.

After all, this is a virtual space created by the tower.

Everything that happens on the ordeal of the earnest wish is like a dream.

All that can be obtained from the ordeal of the earnest desire is only to imply that the manager’s wish could have come true.

“…”

It is an empty ending.

Of course, this side could benefit from numerous advantages even in the virtual world created by the tower.

As a challenger climbing the Tower of Trials, he obtained numerous rewards, and sometimes he was able to obtain rewards by using shortcuts that deviated from the top of the tower.

But at the end, what will Baekhak Geomseon gain?

Maybe it’s just a small consolation.

‘I felt it during the Iron Blooded Lord, but the manager’s earnest wish is futile.’

But there was no way at all.

‘…Still, if I can see the tip of the tower, I might be able to achieve my longing perfectly.’

tower.

A transcendental structure that even the ancient deities who imprinted its existence in the universe cannot take lightly.

Perhaps, if you can stand on the edge, you can crave a better way than this.

Didn’t even the white crane swordsman once say that if you can stand on the top of the tower, you can really achieve your long-cherished ordeal?

‘It’s not impossible at all.’

It’s just…

‘It’s just a problem because I can’t think of the end of the tower yet.’

It’s just that we’re on a very halfway floor to think of the final floor of the tower all of a sudden.

Because I became an ancient deity, I can deal with challengers who stay on the 40th floor, but… Anyway,

I am a challenger who has just cleared the 26th floor, so it is difficult to discuss the end of the tower.

‘Even if that’s not the case, I wonder if the tower will allow me to climb to the end.’

Not even that.

The Tower of Trials seemed to be very dissatisfied that it couldn’t control me.

Wasn’t the fake ancient deity I saw on the battlefield of the gods also an opponent devised to determine if the tower could not replace me?

‘The Tower now knows that I’m not following the controls.’

And since I was the one who won at the end, the tower is also standing still for now.

I realized that despite creating a fake ancient deity, there was no replacement for me.

It is quite predictable that no matter what purpose the tower serves, it will probably want to test this side.

‘Now that the trials on the 27th floor are just around the corner, the tower must be planning something in some way.’

At this point, it’s surprising that the top doesn’t work around.

Perhaps, as prophesied by a higher deity like the god of proof, on the 27th floor, I could dig a trap that would trap me in the tower.

And for that I have already prepared.

Just as it is said that overwhelming power shines even in the midst of any hardship…

After climbing the tower and overcoming the approaching death crisis several times, now I have gained the power that not only the tower but even the ancient deity can’t carelessly do.

Then all that remains is to focus on the present.

‘First of all, I’ll have to finish the ordeal.’

and.

“Master!”

The moment I sorted out the miscellaneous thoughts in my head and entered the gymnasium within the Baek family.

“Where the hell have you been all this time!”

In the blink of an eye, Snow White, who looked like she was training at the gymnasium, ran over and grabbed her arm.

Suddenly, Snow White’s eyes were filled with worry.

At first glance, his eyes seemed to treat someone who had gone to a battlefield and returned home. “That… I was really worried

because

he asked me about the elixir and then he disappeared without a trace…”

“It was even more so because he disappeared while saying that he would retrieve the elixir from somewhere. Even if it’s not, it’s a messy time…”

I replied with a wry smile.

“I was just busy looking for things to help with the lady’s training.”

“…really?”

“yes.”

“…Even without that, it would have been enough for me to just be by your side and teach you martial arts.”

“Is that so.”

“…yes.”

Snow White grumbled as if she couldn’t bear to complain loudly.

Is this an emotion that only those who raise disciples can feel?

It’s like being a grandfather watching his broken granddaughter.

Only then did I smile and take out several elixirs from my bosom.

“But, since I brought the elixirs, try using them.”

Snow White’s pensive eyes began to shine like a child.

“Wow…”

But even that didn’t last long.

It was because Baek Seol-hwa’s gaze went down as if she was ashamed.

Feeling remorse, she shook her head and expressed her refusal.

“Yeah, but no matter how much I put on my life preserver, I can’t even get the elixir…”

“It’s okay. It’s because I brought it somewhere to stop by anyway. You can just take it.”

“Even so…”

“There’s no such thing as too much pressure.”

And I persuaded her in the softest way possible.

“If it’s still burdensome, you can pay me back later when the lady grows up.”

“You grow up later…?”

“yes.”

“…”

And did the persuasion change your mind?

“…Then I’ll definitely pay you back later, Master.”

“If that’s the case, then I will also look forward to the future.”

Now the moment has come to return the favor, even if it is very small, to Baekhakgeomseon.

***

As soon as the persuasion was over, things moved quickly.

Before she knew it, Snow White nodded her head shyly and received the elixirs, and gave most of the elixirs of the Volcano Sect, such as the plum blossoms and seolmaedan, in her hands.

However, the effectiveness of the magical power-up items here is greatly reduced when used repeatedly, so I decided to use the remaining ones.

‘Anyway, I’ll need more magic power to fight against enemies who say it’s the Five Days of Heaven.’

In response, I borrowed one of the practice rooms provided by the Baek family and took the elixirs.

“….”

The next thing to do was simple.

In the blink of an eye, the mana within the body shook and swallowed up the energy of the outside as if it were melting.

very quickly too.

Perhaps, as it was written in the item description, how far you can receive the energy of the elixir depends on how you use your magic power

.

「Ingested Maehwadan (B+).」

「Challenger Seongyoon Han’s magic power increases by +15.」

「Ingested Seolmaedan (A+)…」

「Challenger Seongyoon Han’s magic power increases by +30… .」

「Ingested Jasodan (S+)…」

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s

magic power is +100…」

It was worth it.

In fact, this one climbed the tower and reached a level beyond being a master at mana management.

At the very least, just because the level of all of his stats had been lowered, there was no way that his overwhelming magical power management ability would have disappeared.

‘It’s neat.’

Perhaps even after the trial of earnest desire is over, the magic power already obtained will be added to the original magic ability.

It means that even after the ordeal of the earnest desire is over, the magic power will grow one more level.

I left the practice room with a smile on my face, and soon after, Snow White finished taking the elixir and came here.

There was an indescribable excitement in her eyes.

“Master! I used the elixirs you just gave me, and my internal energy has improved tremendously!”

“Is it so?”

“yes! Oh, and it even tastes great! It tasted as refreshing as the plum blossoms of the volcanic wave….”

“That is correct.”

“?”

but for a while.

“Because that’s the elixir I got from the Volcanic Wave.”

“What is that…?”

“You said that? I just had something to do, so I brought it to the place where I stopped by.”

“…”

and then.

“Perhaps that is the last elixir of the Volcano Sect.”

“…….”

I smiled and said that as if I was really happy.

At this point, did Snow White have any questions?

She stuttered the question with a pale face, not knowing why.

As if he had been unknowingly involved in a great incident.

“Master…”

“?”

“I heard that places like the Volcano Sect and Jongnam Sect were wiped out one after another, but how can I know how you got the Volcano Sect’s elixir?”

“Ah, that…”

I replied with a light smile as if it was nothing.

“It’s simple.”

Even…

“It’s because I destroyed it myself. That’s why the spoils are with me.”

It’s also very casual.
