Absolute Necromancer - Chapter 157

Absolute Necromancer Chapter 157

“Beelzebub….”

He muttered the name of the group of over 30 ‘Baals’ that had separated from him that Baal had told him about.

That time when I muttered as if I would never forget.

[I think this is it.]

Baal may have enjoyed the conversation he had with the climber for the first time in a long time, but he felt sad that this time was coming to an end.

In a voice filled with deep regret, Baal spoke one last word.

[I believe that someday, when we can talk again, we will be able to have more interesting conversations.]

[And the eyes of Beelzebub exist everywhere.]

[I know full well who your main enemies are, but don’t forget that they are just the tip of the iceberg]

“…I know it well, so I’ll just go back. And if something like this happens again, be prepared. “I won’t leave you alone then.”

[··· That won’t happen.]

Baal finished his speech with a hesitant word and soon stopped talking.

[··· maybe?]

“…hey!”

It ended with a smiley, ‘Maybe?’

In response to Baal’s words leaving room for something else to happen, Jinhyeok harshly called his name, but Baal remained silent.

[The nine-tailed fox teases someone by saying that they won’t be able to speak for a while.]

[King Mifu bursts into laughter as he looks at someone’s tightly closed mouth.]

“It looks good.”

Jinhyeok, who ridiculed Baal, who was being teased by other gods and demons, saying that Baal was ugly, perhaps because he had become unable to communicate even between gods and demons thanks to the long conversation, lifted the barrier he had set up to communicate with Baal.

“Are you finished?”

“Okay, now let’s really go back.”

Tune, who had been waiting silently for Jinhyuk, who had placed a barrier as soon as he left the doppelganger’s cave, immediately clung to Jinhyuk and checked as soon as he lifted the barrier.

And as soon as Jinhyuk finished speaking, he nodded.

“I will take you there.”

“…do whatever you want.”

Originally, he would have said something to Tune, saying it was too much of an escort, but Jinhyuk, who used too much heart and energy, was unable to stop Tune.

“Let’s go back, home.”

With those words, the four new types, including Jinhyeok, disappeared from the 105th floor.

* * *

“…Brother!”

“…brother!”

“…Wow!”

As soon as I returned to the 100th floor, I immediately headed towards Ha-ryu and other people and felt a huge shock.

This is because the door to the military attaché burst open and Ha-ryu and Mi-ho rushed in and were hit hard in the body.

If this had been an attack, the impact would have been so strong that four or five ribs were broken.

“They are playing well. “I was wondering why you suddenly ran away after training well, and it was you?”

Choi Kyung-hoon, who saw us like that, crossed his arms and snorted.

This is probably because the sight of Ha-ryu and Mi-ho wetting their hearts with tears after meeting each other for the first time in a long time just seemed the same to him.

I said bluntly to him.

“It’s been a while since I last saw you, but I’m talking about you.”

“Are you discussing Malbonsae in front of me? After coming here for the first time in ten years, I realized what you said in front of me…!!!”

Just by looking at Choi Kyung-hoon’s red eyes, I could roughly tell how worried he was about me.

A man who was consumed with guilt for not being able to prevent his friend’s death must have been even more oppressed by the fact that he pushed his friend to death again.

However, even though I knew that feeling better than anyone else, I interrupted Choi Kyeong-hoon’s angry words midway through.

“Okay, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so I know it’s good, so let’s go in.”

“…Stop talking, don’t talk.”

Choi Kyung-hoon must have calmed down after seeing me not caring about his opinions, and he returned to his usual self.

He returned to his usual face with red eyes and a red face.

I passed Choi Gyeong-hoon, who shook his head with a sigh, and entered the museum with Ha-ryu and Mi-ho clinging to me like cicadas hanging from an old tree.

“As expected, you were safe.”

“Cha Jinhyuk! You damn bastard! I was determined to come back after a full month! It’s been over 3 weeks! “Three weeks!”

Hendrick and Balkan were there, who had already noticed my return.

Balkan smiled as he saw Ha-Ryu and Mi-Ho sniffling while hanging on, but that didn’t stop them from yelling.

3 weeks.

This is because he fought his doppelganger for over three weeks without any proper contact, putting a huge burden on others.

But I also had something to say.

“What do I do when there is no way to contact me inside the doppelganger’s cave? “It didn’t take long to catch it, but it took a long time to control the damage.”

“Ugh, that’s true, but….”

Doppelganger’s Cave.

There was no way to contact them from there.

Since the hidden dungeon, like the cave of a doppelganger, is a place where not even gods and demons can see, it was perhaps natural that they could not be contacted.

If I had to say something about that, I would have no choice but to have something to say.

“…It’s done, I guess it’s done because you’re safe. So did you bring the cause you went with?”

“You are stating the obvious. “Are you talking about this?”

The reason I went to the doppelganger’s cave.

The reason that made my colleagues anxious and waiting.

The cause was brought out from the subspace of the court.

“Is this the core of the doppelganger? It’s mysterious. It looks black, but I feel like I can see many colors. “Is it a hallucination series?”

The core of the doppelganger.

That was the reason this division was created.

As he had never been caught, the doppelganger’s core was the only thing he had.

Therefore, even though he lived for over hundreds of years, Balkan saw the doppelganger’s core for the first time.

It was no different for gods and demons.

[The greedy dragon shows interest.]

[I recommend that the dragon guarding the treasure would be good to display in his warehouse.]

[The God of Destruction asks what it would be like to destroy it.]

This is something I have never seen before.

As it is an item that even gods and demons could not save, it is amazing to those who have a strong desire to collect it and those who are interested in the item itself when they see it for the first time.

I frowned and waved my hand as I saw people sending me quests in droves.

“Isn’t it all gone? “I’m trying to eat raw the only thing in the world that others risked their lives to save.”

The process of killing the doppelganger was fine, but Baal’s past appearance appeared at the end of the process.

In addition, there was an eventful incident that occurred in the process of absorption.

It all happened because of one doppelganger core.

Especially since it is an essential material for weapons to be made in the future, no matter what gods and demons bring, I have no intention of trading it for the doppelganger’s core.

[The greedy dragon cannot hide his disappointment.]

[The greedy dragon says it is a familiar item for some reason.]

“I’m used to it – it’s the only one in the world.”

It was only after I frowned again at Tom’s message that he was trying to subtly drool over an object he had seen for the first time that it was familiar, and then the message window became quiet.

It was only then that I was able to reply to Balkan’s words, leaving behind the quiet message windows.

“It’s not a hallucination, it’s just that all the colors are there.”

“…Does that make sense?”

“That doesn’t make sense. But if you think about his identity, isn’t there anything that makes no sense?”

“…That’s right.”

The owner of the doppelganger’s core is the doppelganger itself.

And the doppelganger could take on the appearance of countless people, and it was no wonder that his heart-like core took on many colors and shapes.

The core, which changes so quickly and flexibly that one might think that all changes are hallucinations or delusions, returns to its original black, round bead shape when a little force is applied.

After carefully collecting the core of the doppelganger who returned as a black bead, I left the military office.

“Are you planning to go to the workshop?”

“I have to go. “Why did I go through all that trouble?”

In response to Balkan’s question that followed, I nodded as if it was obvious.

The doppelganger’s core was brought for the sole purpose of making weapons.

There was absolutely no reason to just hold it.

“…But can’t you guys walk a little further away? “It’s a bit uncomfortable.”

“…No. “Once I’m sure that my brother won’t disappear, then I’ll leave.”

“Miho too!”

The only problem was that Ha-ryu and Mi-ho were still clinging to me like cicadas clinging to an old tree.

The bright eyes and trembling hands were also the same.

In particular, Miho seemed to be just doing it because she was having fun, but Ha-ryu seemed to be sincere, so all I could do was sigh and nod.

“…do whatever you want.”

“Since my brother did what he wanted, I also tried to do what I wanted.”

Of course, I didn’t get a good answer, but I looked pretty good as my shaking hands gradually stopped and my bloodshot eyes returned to their original form.

“Ugh, you stupid bastard.”

“what? “Why are you swearing all of a sudden?”

“…You little eunuch.”

“…Bulkan and Kyung-hoon are you. Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?”

I was suddenly criticized for being stupid and a eunuch, and I felt dumbfounded and mortified, but I didn’t stop walking all the way to the workshop.

-…Why are you hanging on to these girls?

-Oh my, look at that person.

-But isn’t that person a ghost?

“…Damn, nothing happens.”

I ran toward the workshop as if I were flying, trying to hide my heated face with a mask as I heard the cries of climbers and NPCs around me.

* * *

“…Did your job change to Old Tree?”

“Hmm, downstream. What are you doing without your hair? “Come down quickly.”

Gold Rich Workshop.

Jinhyeok arrived at the workshop he made with money and immediately headed to the deepest workshop where Melton and Muyoung were waiting.

There, the two were unable to hide their absurd emotions and laughter as they looked at Jinhyeok and Ha-ryu hanging on him.

“It wasn’t because I wanted to become an old tree. Anyway, here’s the doppelganger hack. “I saved it.”

“…Huh, you really saved this?”

“…It was incredible, but I really saved it. Are you really….”

The gaze that had been focused on Jinhyuk, who had turned into an old tree, and Ha-ryu, who was clinging to him like a cicada, went straight to the core of the doppelganger.

The two people, who were looking at the doppelganger’s core with twinkling eyes like children, started shaking their hips as if they were excited and then-

“Eight-”

“We need to quickly conduct strength and durability tests first!”

Everyone quickly stretched out their hands towards the doppelganger’s core.

but-

widely!

“I’m sure you remember the deal. “The only time you can touch the doppelganger’s core is after the transaction has been completed correctly.”

Jinhyeok’s long, thin hand, which moved like lightning, put their quick touches to shame, and before he knew it, he was holding the doppelganger’s core in his hand.

transaction.

At those words, the two people let out a deep sigh.

and.

“…Do you know how to hold a hammer?”

“Do you know how to look at drawings?”

Facing the two people asking questions with a bit of anticipation, Jinhyuk took off the mask he was wearing, hung it on his waist, and smiled.

“Didn’t I tell you last time? I’ve never even looked at a drawing, let alone used a hammer. So, please teach me, step by step, from the beginning.”

The two felt their blood pressure rise at Jinhyuk’s polite but mocking voice.

‘…I’m holding back because of the doppelganger’s core, really.’

The moment I saw the doppelganger’s core moving like a toy in Jinhyuk’s hand, my blood pressure subsided.

like that-

“Follow me. “Don’t forget that it’s in the contract that you just throw it away if it seems hopeless.”

“I have never forgotten. “Then let’s get started right away.”

The teachings of artisan-level blacksmiths to make Jinhyeok into a field leader began.

Of course, it was not voluntary, but someone else’s will.
