Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 110
110. Interim settlement (1)
「In order to prevent advisory messages, the limited manager message is activated.」
It was the moment to collect the spirit of necromancy flowing from the replica’s corpse.
“…?”
I remembered the text that appeared at the beginning of the ordeal.
―In order to prevent advisory messages, messages from administrators are temporarily disabled.
Come to think of it, the reason the manager’s message didn’t come to mind was because the tower prevented advice.
Now that the ordeal is over, the manager message limit to prevent that advice has been lifted.
However… 「Currently
, there are a total of 87 managers who have watched
your ordeal.」
I wonder if it was ….
After such a message, I had no choice but to stare blankly at the writings overflowing so much that I could not read them all.
「The manager, the wandering knight who
lost his master, is amazed at your crazy talent.
』 I admire the difficulty level of the ‘Dragon Slayer’ ordeal on the 12th floor and you who confidently overcame it.”
Some people were astonished at the talent I possessed or the difficulty level of the ordeal, saying that I was like a monster.
「The manager ‘The Seventh Dead Hero’ looks at you sickly, wondering if a monster like this is still born on the same floor as the 12th floor.
」 I have doubts about it.」
「The manager laments that the ‘Hero of the Ruined World’ is still growing like a monster, and it’s hard to be surprised now.」
Some responded as if they were tired of me, asking if I was really a challenger staying on the 12th floor.
「The manager, ‘The Fallen Heir of the Blood Demon Cult’, shows interest in you as if he’s coveted.] 「The
manager, ‘The Only Servant of the Holy Knight’, has great expectations for you, as if he’s having fun.]
「The manager, the Divine Knight ‘The Seeker’ sends you eyes full of piety.
”
This category was the most questionable, but it was because I was a challenger who had already completed an additional contract.
‘If you’re interested in me, you won’t get anything…’
Of course, managers have shown interest in me before, even in the arena.
In addition to the contract, I thought that there might be benefits that the manager could take through the challenger.
‘I think I can think about that later.’
First of all, I had a lot of fun watching these messages, so I watched them all without taking my eyes off them.
However, my interest soon ceased when I realized that the contents of the nonstop messages were mostly consistent reactions of surprise or greed.
‘It’s just a matter of looking at it in a way that there are managers like this.’
While doing so, the message that continued like water pouring through a wide open floodgate came to an end.
Then, the last message that came to mind ended with the reactions of people I knew well.
「The administrator, ‘White Crane Swordsman’, twitched his lips, saying that his eyes were not mistaken by the contractor’s great talent.』
I feel it.」
Unlike the other administrators, the Iron Blood Lord and Baekhak Geomseon reacted as if they expected this situation.
Of course, since they trust me that much, it shouldn’t matter too much…
After thinking about it, I came to the idea that the reaction of these two managers could be the result of a high degree of calculation.
The iron-blooded lord noticed that I had a talent for martial arts, and in fact, the white crane swordsman acted as if he wasn’t too surprised.
‘I think it’s an appropriate guess.’
Even in terms of efficiency, it might be better not to regard the manager’s words as mere compliments… 「The
manager, ‘the servant of the only holy knight’, is looking at you.」
is staring at you blankly.」
「The manager, ‘Sacred Seeker’, looks at you as if expecting something
.
」
Should I say it’s a move to leave a mark on your eyes as if you’re expecting something?
‘I don’t know why he’s doing this… but now I know what he wants from me.’
Afterwards, the Tower of Trials will create a system that administrators can ask me to expand.
That fact has now passed into the realm of certainty, not conjecture.
It’s nothing else, but by the messages of the managers who are eagerly staring at me.
But if they had such expectations, I couldn’t stay still.
I don’t know exactly what I want, but given the tower’s propensity, I would never add a system that would be detrimental to a challenger.
So, I thought that the managers were trying to keep their eyes on me by sending me quite burdensome glances.
I felt an idea flash in my head.
‘If the administrators want to leave their mark on me, shouldn’t I ask for something first…?’
Until now, there were only a few managers who watched me and sent me favors, so I didn’t know….
Come to think of it, if the managers were expecting me like this, it was more efficient for me to respond.
It’s because trying to get attention with just a few messages doesn’t help me no matter how much I think about it.
However, since everything is worth losing, it was quite disappointing to go back to the waiting room as it is.
So…
“Looks like as the system expands later, non-contracted administrators will be able to benefit as well.”
Without holding back, I immediately opened my mouth and spoke slowly, pretending to be relaxed.
“Don’t you think it’s a bit silly to just throw out a message like this, as if everyone is looking at it?”
As if I don’t care what happens.
“If there is anything you want from me, please support me with power. They will be remembered when the system expands later.”
and.
「The administrator, the ‘dragon slayer born in a thousand years’, is taken aback as if he hadn’t expected it
. 』
He said he was overconfident and told me to refrain.”
Then, as expected, I heard complaints from the managers, but it wasn’t something to worry about.
Because…
“By the way, this is for three people on a first-come, first-served basis.”
After these words, the maintenance of dignity by managers disappeared in an instant.
「Manager ‘The Fallen Heir of the Blood Demon Religion’ wants to add authority to the contractor-only shop.」 「
Manager ‘Hero of the Ruined World’ wants to add authority to the contractor-only shop.」
「Manager ‘Thousand Years’ The dragon slayer born in the bay wants to add power to the contractor-only shop.」
“….”
It was a nice sight to see.

“You have entered the waiting room on the 13th floor.”
“The system is expanded.”
“Communities that were separated by country on the global level are fully integrated.” “
Communities of different difficulty levels are now available.”
“Integration . Team members assigned in trials do not discriminate between countries.」 「The settlement rankings
, which were separated by country at the global level, are also fully integrated.」
「Now you can also view the settlement rankings of different difficulty levels.」
After returning to the waiting room, I slowly read the messages that came to my mind in bulk.
‘It’s a system extension that has nothing to do with me.’
The community has not been used for quite some time now, and even if the settlement rankings were integrated with other countries, it did not matter much anymore.
If there’s one thing that bothers me, I think it’s that in the integration ordeal, you’re now assigned regardless of country.
‘That doesn’t really have much to do with it either.’
But others didn’t seem to be like that.
「You have entered the fully integrated community.」
「Difficulty – Difficult」
「 13th floor community (2182/3121)」
Why are all the communities that are doing well all of a sudden unified?
-Griff (USA): Friends, calm down. Just because the community is integrated doesn’t mean it’s going to make a fuss.
-Meimei (China): I have a lot of complaints about using a community with inferior guys like you?
-Radin (Russia): That’s shit. You must be inferior. I really want to hit you one by one to see those ignorant idiots messing around.
-Meimei (China): Haha? If you mess with it, come to the common area right away, you bastard. Because I can send a guy like you in one room.
-Radin (Russia): ㅇㅋ Wait there. If you jump out of fear or are not there, the next time you meet in an ordeal, you will fall behind.
-Meimei (China): Even if we meet in trials, I will win, but you talk bullshit.
-TKP1870 (Netherlands): Wow, there really is no such thing as shit. I’ve come this far, but I never thought there would still be pathetic people fighting in the community.
It was a scene of all the fuss about not adapting to the current unified community…
Looking at this scene, I was able to recognize what this meant for a while.
‘Does this mean that the 20th floor will also integrate the community with other dimensions?’
It must have been.
It seems that the community integration process was put in before going through discord with another dimension.
It didn’t seem very meaningful, so I quickly turned off my interest and opened my inventory.
It’s because right now it’s time to put more effort into my own growth than these things.
‘Even if you don’t, there’s a lot to do, so there’s no need to waste your energy.’
Of course, community opinion aside, the final rankings raised questions.
How many world-class challengers are as strong as me?
I couldn’t stand the rustling curiosity and immediately opened the rankings and checked the rankings.
and.
“…?”
Soon after checking the rankings, I had no choice but to stare blankly at the settlement board.
That would be the case…
「12th Floor Ordeal Settlement Edition」
-1st Place Hunter (SSS)
-2nd Place Great Sorcerer (SS+)
-3rd Place Kim Seung-hoon (SS)
-4th Place Catherine Bennett (SS-)
-5th Place Bloodsword (SS-)
-6th Place Wizard of the Clock Tower (SS-)
-7th Place Andrei Tarkovsky (S+)
“What is this…”
It’s because my nickname was engraved on the top of the 12th floor ordeal settlement board. .
“…”
I stared at the settlement board for a while, but soon I came to accept the reality that did not seem like reality.
Yes.
I came closer than anyone else to the position of being the strongest among the challengers on the earth level.
