Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 118

118. Myth (2)

“Congratulations, you have broken through the 13th floor of the Tower of Trials.” “

As a breakthrough reward, ‘Random Skill Book (A+)’ will be sent to your inventory

. ” 」

「You acquired ‘4000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.」

「You acquired ‘5000 SP’ as an additional breakthrough reward.」

「Go to the waiting room.」

Even the system message confirmed the death of Sel Neir…

Soon, a portal appeared next to Sel Neir’s cold corpse.

‘It’s finally over.’

In fact, it was only 1 day out of 14 given as remaining time.

I couldn’t help but think that it took quite a while too.

That would be the case…

‘The Vampire Count was too weak.’

It was because Sel Neir, who appeared as the last enemy of the 13th floor ordeal, was weaker than imagined.

If I’d rather escaped the city and ran away, I might have tracked it down by looking at the mini-map.

But it wasn’t like that, it was natural that it was trivial since it appeared splendidly and died ugly.

Of course, apart from trivial things, the 13th floor had a good influence on my growth.

Such was the proficiency of necromancy he had accumulated while slaughtering vampires, as well as his greatly increased stats.

‘If I absorb Sel Neir’s command, the level of Necromancy might go up.’

Although it is regrettable that the skill absorption did not occur, the skill was imprinted with the blood of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword…

Even this is not the only skill acquired.

‘And I got two skills as an achievement.’

Torture skill (D-) was created from the achievement of ‘torture without blood and tears’.

『Skill – Torture Skills (D-)』

『Proficiency – None』

『Explanation – You become familiar with torture and can implement effective torture methods.

』 Increases by 10%.]

Pain Amplification (D-) was learned while achieving the strange achievement of ‘Beginning of Madness’.

『Skill – Pain Amplification (D-)』

『Proficiency – None』

『Explanation – Can amplify the pain the opponent feels』

『Effect – When inflicting damage on the opponent, the pain the opponent feels is doubled.

』 Bonnie, these were skills I acquired by completing achievements in succession.

The contents were also not that suitable for actual combat.

‘Torture skill makes it easier to torture an incapacitated opponent, and Pain Amplification is a skill that amplifies the pain the opponent receives.’

It was ambiguous.

It is not known why these achievements were achieved in the first place.

‘I didn’t do anything to learn bloody skills like torture and pain amplification.’

If I had to choose a better one, it was a vicious skill called Pain Amplification.

Since it amplifies the suffering of others, it may be able to distract the opponent in battle.

Of course, those who are used to pain probably won’t mind, but it was better than nothing.

However, these two skills were just a bonus, and the main point was somewhere else.

Exactly….

「Blood Exclusive Slot (1/3)」

「< Imprinted Skill: Strengthen Fresh Blood (C+) >」

「< Imprinted Skill Description: A skill absorbed from the Vampire Count 'Cell Neir'. Blood can be strengthened. >」

「< Imprint skill effect: Strengthening blood within the area of blood control by consuming magic power strengthens durability and dominance. >」

It was the result of the growth of the Blood Demon Sword.

I was quite satisfied with the fact that I had brought the most useful part of Sel Neir’s Blood Sculpture.

Reinforcing fresh blood to supplement durability and dominance was no different from being able to resist similar abilities.

‘Of course, even though I had this ability, seeing that the area of control over blood was taken away from me, there might be a limit to strengthening blood, but…’ The

important thing is that the Blood Demon Sword has no concept of cost.

Enhancement of blood doesn’t consume magic power, and this skill itself doesn’t have a cooldown, so you can activate it to the limit at any time.

「Activate the True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Strengthen Blood (C+) >」

Standing there, I used the blood of Neir, who was cold, to use Strengthen Blood.

I was able to immediately grasp the benefits of the Blood Enhancement skill.

The effect of the skill did not deviate greatly from what he had imagined.

「True Blood Heaven Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Enhanced Blood (C+) > is deactivated.」 Soon

after I stopped using Strengthen Blood, I turned my eyes and looked at the sign of Sel Neir.

The black smoke-like mark created by necromancy shimmered like a haze and pulled me in.

「Absorbs the spirit of the Vampire Count ‘Sel Neir’.」

「Proficiency increases by 17%.」

Next, I absorbed the spirit of Sel Neir and felt a bit disappointed.

‘I can’t fill all the skill levels yet.’

Still, I thought that his skill level would go up quite a bit because he showed a fairly powerful Blood Jogging technique.

Rather, it was disappointing that they gave me a lower amount of proficiency than the replica I met on the 12th floor.

But that was only for a moment.

「The judgment of power extraction begins after absorbing a spirit stronger than the user.」

Despite the fact that the enemy did not feel much stronger than me, the power extraction was activated.

At that, I frowned and stared at the system message as much as I could, and fell into agony.

‘I don’t know where the standard for judging whether an enemy I can’t handle or a strong enemy is.’

I don’t think it’s just judged based on pure combat ability.

Perhaps it is judged based on stats, skills, or additional abilities such as authority?

In fact, those who were judged to be unbearable or strong enemies seemed to have more skills and powers than me.

Or maybe it’s just judging based on authority.

[Judgment successful.]

At least, strength was not judged by pure combat ability.

「Confirmed that the power exists in the spirit of the vampire count ‘Sel Neir’.」

「

Extracts power from the spirit.

」 It will be imprinted.”

Then, the cryptic power of harvesting faith was absorbed into me.

‘Faith Harvest?’

I thought about what kind of authority this was, but the thought didn’t last that long.

「The power of ‘reaping faith’ is strongly activated.」

「The faith in you is harvested from those around you.」

Right away, the power of harvesting faith was activated at will, as if to answer questions.

「The Authority “Divine Power” is strongly activated.」

“…!?”

As if they were interlocking with each other, even the divine power began to vibrate in the heart.

「Calculate the myth according to the actual result and the Shinto faith.」 An

unknown message comes to mind, and soon the heart is heated by the divine power.

‘What is this…’

Messages appeared faster than I could grasp the situation.

「Myth < Vampire Exorcist > has been completed.」

「Myth < Vampire Exorcist > accumulates in holy power.」 「

From now on, challenger Seongyoon Han’s divine attack will have the effect of < Unrenewable >.」

「From now on, Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s holy attack has the effect of < Exorcism >.”

“…”

After reading all the messages, I was at a loss for words.

***

Holy Power.

I just regarded this authority acquired on the 11th floor as something I would use later.

However, the more I climbed the floor, the more the divine power was bringing about strange changes to me.

I was perplexed because I didn’t know why the mysterious absorption ability called divinity extraction was also activated.

This time, it was even more so than that.

The Power of Divine Harvest and the Power of Divine Power were activated together, and the accumulation of myths occurred.

What was obtained as a result was roughly this.

[The authority ‘sacred power’ is activated.]

Previously, even if the divine power was circulated through the body, the body would only glow.

Touching the tickling sensation in the body now has a new effect.

「Mythic < Vampire Exorcist > is activated.」

「Divine attack has the effect of < Cannot Regenerate >」

「Divine attack has the effect of < Exorcism >」

“This is really ridiculous. .”

As I looked at the divine light that shimmered all over my body, I smiled.

It seemed that I now know what the ‘Accumulation of Myths’ obtained in the waiting room on the 13th floor is.

In connection with the harvest of faith, a new power is created within the power in the form of ‘myth’.

Of course, the ‘myth’ that is invoked by the authority within the authority was a form of consuming the divine power nestled in the heart.

It was to the point where I could feel the divine power that I had never properly consumed until now draining away.

「Myth < Vampire Exterminator > is deactivated.」

Shortly after, I deactivated the ‘Myth’ acquired this time to stop the consumption of divine power.

‘Hey, it doesn’t make sense if there’s no cost at all.’

However, even if there was a cost to consume, I was uncomfortable with this myth.

It was worth it.

The fact that a unique ability was created based on a story that actually happened…

It was because it was no different from the original power.

The Vampire Count Sel Neir was prevented from regenerating, so he killed it, and the < non-regenerative > effect was applied.

At the same time, the vampires in the city were slaughtered, and the < Exorcism > effect seems to have been applied.

that was really weird

‘…I don’t think the other priests I saw on the 11th floor were like this.’

The priests on the 11th floor I had seen before didn’t have this ability.

At most, there were only powers that felt like recovery and attack.

Even that, it felt like he had special powers created only when he reached the same level as the pre-apostle.

The same was true of the Vampire Count Cel Neir.

He had powers befitting the head of the vampires who believed in the god of battle… but

Sel Neir’s powers never crossed the line and were so radical.

If Sel Neir had a power within a mythical power, the aspect of the fight would have been different.

However, the fight went in my favor from start to finish and there were no changes.

‘What is my divine power…? Why is the direction different from other divine powers…?’

Of course, worrying about it didn’t mean that the answer would come out, but it was natural to have questions.

But it was only for a moment that I was immersed in that thought.

“The god of battle recognizes your presence.”

I half-opened my eyes at the system message that popped up before I had time to think.

The message that the god of battle recognized me had a meaning.

‘I thought there was a god on the 13th floor…’

Just like there was a god of proof on the 11th floor stage before.

On the 13th floor stage this time, there was a god of battle.

It wasn’t that there were no signs of a god of battle at all.

I was able to guess based on what the vampires were talking about the god of battle.

Looking at Sel Neir through the eyes of the fire dragon, I knew that he had powers, so I wasn’t embarrassed.

“I realize that the god of battle has died as his reserve apostle.” It

was all the more so because I knew that the god would not be able to harm me with malice.

The tower has the will to protect me, and God cannot treat the tower carelessly.

Of course, if you consume divine power favorably like the god of proof, the story will be different… ”

The god of battle recognizes the divine power you have and harbors hostility.”

had hostility.

「The god of battle says that the topic of the dog raised by the tower has crossed the line.」 「

I feel disgusted that the god of battle only holds divinity in the topic of a mortal.」

realized

-Don’t believe in the gods. They will consider you an enemy now.

“The God of Battle remembers the challenger Han Seong-yoon.”

The God of Battle was hostile to me.

“…”

But unlike when I encountered the God of Proof, I wasn’t afraid of God.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve experienced the power of God once or because I’ve been warned indirectly.

I was certain that I would have had similar feelings even if I had heard the bloody warning from the god of battle.

‘I don’t like it.’

Instead of embracing fear at God’s message, I harbored anger…

Anger soon acted as a new craving and stimulated me.

‘Having divinity itself crossed the line?’

The god of battle was hostile to me, saying that he was a dog raised by the tower just because he had a divinity.

‘dog sound.’

I absolutely did not want to submit to this absurd hostility and tremble.

The Tower of Trials gave me infinite possibilities.

So there was no surrender.

‘I need to grow more. To the extent that even God can’t treat me carelessly.’

I stared at the system message quietly and intuition.

Now I won’t be able to stop climbing the tower.
