Episode 97
“You heard it throughout class. Don’t do anything weird.”
It was made by processing animal things.
On the other hand, there are items that use human things as materials to attract powerful spirits.
If you’re lucky to use it, you might be able to use a powerful command.
“Aren’t you going to do that?”
“Don’t do that.”
The risk is too great.
One of the prohibitions strictly imposed on warlocks by imperial law.
It is forbidden to use human things as material.
If there is an exception, there is black magic that works on skeletons or zombies, but that also needs to be approved by the Empire.
“What if I get caught?”
“It won’t end with just hanging around.”
In the game, there was a score called ‘taboo’.
Something that exists when choosing a class that is easy to cross the line of ethical issues, including black magic.
It is said that if you pass it once or twice, you will receive only admonition even if you get caught.
However, as the number of times it is repeated, the ‘taboo’ score gradually accumulates.
“In the worst case, a wanted order might be issued.”
Your academic record as an academy student may be revoked, and you may be treated as a criminal.
There is also a wanted person route, but I don’t need it.
It’s almost like a bad ending.
“Hey… … . I know.”
“If you know the law well, you won’t get caught and live.”
only to know
That’s one of the things I watch out for.
In the game, one of the triggers for ‘Xian”s belly to be pierced is because ‘Xian’ was ordered to leave the game by touching taboos.
Even if you use things that belong to taboo inevitably, you should not get caught.
“Because I won’t get caught just spraying something like this to collect some spirits.”
At most, the raw material is the bone meal of animals.
It is also used as a fertilizer and is harmless to the environment.
Let’s sprinkle it.
When the catalyst is sprayed boldly, it glows purple in the air and then disappears.
《The item takes effect.》
《Temporarily increases the encounter rate with ‘Devil’ series monsters.》
It will not be an illusion.
I feel the unique creepy sensation that occurs when I come into contact with the spirit.
Humans instinctively avoid them.
The only ones laughing at this kind of thing are the black magicians.
“Oh! It’s coming right.”
A purple glow flickers in the dark.
Guided by the effect of the item, the spirits crawled out.
“ghost!”
They are about level 10 Ghosts.
“You are so weak!”
What a crappy ghost!
It’s weaker than the entity that roamed the Forest of Blood before, but it should be enough for practice.
“Practice. Are you going to repeat that day?”
“No way. All I need now is your knowledge, Emily, to learn how the devil works with souls.”
In short, I will learn the real exhaust necromancer.
“oh? You want me to teach you necromancy? It’s not my specialty.”
“Don’t pretend. you know how to do it.”
Demons are not only skilled in black magic.
Due to the nature of their race, they are born with the quality to entice and corrupt the spirits and dominate them.
Prior to that.
“The soul is like the devil’s food.”
“That’s right, it’s very precious and I like it.”
For some reason, a soul that has fallen into the Demon Realm or has been corrupted by the devil’s tricks becomes a material that increases the power of the devil.
“The necromancy of a warlock is the magic reproduction of that devil’s qualities.”
“Huh~, as Xian said, any demon can interfere with the soul.”
Something like breathing.
“But Xian? My sister didn’t teach me because she was mean.”
Emily, who taught me how to use magic and magic tricks, didn’t interfere too much with necromancy.
Even in the daytime class, he grumbled as if he didn’t like something, but he didn’t say anything else.
“If you want to learn necromancy, Daniel… … Isn’t that teacher’s class enough?”
“Are you acknowledging Professor Daniel’s class?”
“It’s a class that has fallen out, but that woman’s realization is real.”
Emily tends to give a rather harsh assessment of Professor Daniel.
Perhaps he felt that his teaching role had been usurped. What are you competing against?
Such Emily also acknowledges Professor Daniel’s level as a black magician.
Me too.
“Yes, for a healthy class, Professor Daniel’s method would suffice. … … In the first place, the test will stop at that level.”
“oh? Don’t you like wholesome things?”
“hahahaha, kids usually hate healthy things.”
Although the path of becoming a juvenile delinquent is more appealing.
It’s not just a joke.
“You know that I don’t study necromancy just to get good test scores, right?”
“Hmm… … .”
“I need a strong necromantic knack.”
to get stronger.
Above all, as a black magician, in order to differentiate himself from others, he must also come into contact with the original knowledge.
Demon’s necromantic.
“That is a wonderful word. whoop whoop… … . Then I will teach you. However, Xi’an should bear with the latter.”
“I intend to.”
Emily seemed to agree to my request, as if she liked my answer.
“First of all, this is the only trick this older sister will teach you.”
First of all, Emily says the biggest difference between necromancy and the ability of demons.
“Laugh.”
“hmm… … .”
“Mock the soul, despise it, and place it under your feet.”
A technique that is completely opposite to the theory of necromancer taught by Professor Daniel during the day.
Truly, the first step for humans to learn necromancy in the most unhuman way.
“It is to show the power you possess, to pierce the soul and leave you no room to resist.”
“and?”
“If you have it in your hands, you can do whatever you want. I don’t need petty sympathy.”
It was no different from what the devil thought of the human soul.
“If you don’t understand that way of thinking, you won’t get the way.”
“Not to mention.”
You don’t have to get lost.
There is no reason to deeply sympathize. It’s just that it’s like this, and if you know it as a reference, it’s enough.
“First, let’s test them.”
From noble mtl dot com
In order to do that, he had already gathered enough commanders.
“First of all, it would be better to start with basic necromancy.”
It emits demonic energy and wraps around wandering spirits with it.
Synchronization, the foundation of necromancy.
“Whoa… … . Squeeze it down from there.”
Emily whispers in my ear, directing me to switch tricks.
Not in the way that was honest and tamed by the laws of the Empire.
Revert to the way evil, soul-crushing warlocks seek.
“Now~, you are trembling after touching Xian’s demonic energy. that command… … . In this case, you show more power and dominate.”
They laugh at it and tell them to crush it without remorse.
“You don’t have to understand. No, it’s rather important to know. … … You need to know your opponent so you can laugh at their weaknesses and ridicule them.”
“That’s right, you speak meanly.”
But that must be the gist.
After all, figuring out how to improve necromancy based on Emily’s tips is my homework.
It won’t be easy.
It’s insane.
“Well, it will work out somehow.”
I believe in my knowledge, experience and intuition.
I understand the difference and amend the theory in the way I need.
‘All I need is… … It’s not the normal necromancy tricks taught at the academy.’
It is also excellent in its own way, and if you are determined and digging into it, you will surely succeed.
But it takes time.
What I need is knowledge and skills that I can use even tomorrow.
“… … Suppression of the possessed soul.”
Let’s beckon, and my demonic spirits capture the spirits as they are.
As if ordering him to lie down and bow his head.
“Whoops… … . I see you understand.”
“I just took the shape roughly.”
I need to get a little more galpi.
Press down and stir up fear so that no one dares to think of going against My will.
‘In short, it must mean to completely take over and bind the essence itself to demonic energy.’
《Black Magic – The level of understanding of necromantic skills is greatly increased.》
《Black magic – learn command control.》
The galpi is caught.
It is not a necromantic system that can be learned at the academy, but a skill that is the basis of necromancy that can be learned in actual combat.
if there is a difference.
“… … Does the commander who has been seized in this way disappear as it is after the order is over?”
“Because with such a weak grudge, you won’t be able to handle Xian’s orders.”
How to use consumables.
“Do you feel sorry for me?”
“No way~ I have no intention of complaining based on my ethics. After all, it is nothing more than a poorly copied remnant.”
“It is much more beneficial to rule and write.”
“It’s very useful… … .”
Snorting, I shook my head to dig deeper into the foundations of necromancy.
“Not quite this yet.”
“Which way do you want?”
“I told you. They want it the way the devil uses it.”
“… … no way?”
Emily understood the type of skill I was pursuing as a goal.
“The devil takes over the soul and uses it as food to grow himself.”
“I don’t eat any souls. It’s worth it when you directly dominate and corrupt it.”
“What do you know? I’m not picky enough to pick that up.”
Not even a real devil.
“You want it as a means.”
How to use it as a skill.
Commander’s value.
What advantages will it give me? I am only interested in it.
“And I’m not particularly interested in domination.”
Regrettably, the work of the devil over there, looking at me with delight, is enough and maddening.
“So there is no need to hold it down.”
The basis for the necessary necromancy is beginning to be grasped.
《Necromancer – Acquire grudge savagery.》
“It’s annoying, so get out of here.”
Skills that have just been acquired are effective.
You already know the efficacy.
It is not an offensive skill, but a passive skill that is activated all the time.
My enveloping demonic spirit squeezes and crushes the spirit.
Dispersing as it is, the demons wrapped around the things that were ghosts come back to me.
“hmm… … . Is it roughly like this?”
“… … Did you eat the spirit itself?”
“I mixed it properly with my demonic energy and harvested it. … … Originally, this must be the real necromancer.”
It’s not the latest, but it’s a kind of necromancer that’s close to the basics.
“It’s not just a command. Beasts or monsters, for example.”
He sensed that a suitable animal was lurking nearby.
I blink, and a spear of bone sprang out of thin air pierces the beast with ease.
“Look Carefully.”
“indeed… … . You wanted to learn this.”
Emily’s eyes narrowed as she observed what I was doing, admiring it.
It was a brief moment, but it was well understood.
The moment the beast died due to my black magic, the magic that formed the black magic intercepted and retrieved part of its soul.
“As long as I defeat enemies with black magic, I will retrieve their grudges and use them as my strength.”
It is part of recovering and obtaining higher density demonic energy.
Recognizes the opponent who took the life as the target of necromantic magic, and collects the fresh grudge to replenish my demonic energy.
If you learn this, the battle time of the warlock is overwhelmingly increased.
The more monsters and enemies there are, the less power consumed in the fight.
In order to solve the fuel economy problem, which is a chronic problem in the magic system, it must be learned.
That’s one of the reasons I was interested in necromancy.
“By the way, didn’t the laws of the Empire say blah blah blah? Wasn’t necromantic magic applied to living opponents not acceptable?”
“I have no intention of writing to a careless person. monster or… … Who would say anything about being a cheap villain?”
Of course I’ll keep it a secret.
Then no problem.
“I have to keep it a secret from the professor. First of all, I have to think about a way not to show off, so please watch me practice.”
“That’s right, you’re a bad kid.”
But as if she liked that part, Emily let out an alluring laugh.
“But my sister likes a kid like that, so should I give her a prize?”
“Leave it.”
The more I wish for power
It would be desirable to pay attention to things that healthy people would not do.
So it will be cooperative.
“By the way, Xian? You seem to be in a hurry, is anything happening soon?”
“Roughly… … It has to happen.”
If it’s important, it’s important, and if it’s insignificant, an insignificant time awaits.
as soon as.
“The exam period is coming.”
Just thinking about it makes the student’s instincts cause rejection.
“Before that time comes, I need to improve my skills a little more.”
