Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 184

184. Irregular (5)

Sanctuary.

A place where you can offer sacrifices to demons and at the same time inject divine power into demons.

Currently, the most interesting place in this fortified city, the sanctuary, cannot be opened by humans.

By the way…

“I’m not human?”

The sanctuary was opened to me when it should not have been open now.

It’s very simple too.

“That’s right…”

After defeating the Dark Lord, I kindly asked him a few questions, and the explanation came back.

However, the explanation was not immediately accepted.

“…Are demons lying when they open their mouths?”

It was worth it.

‘What do you mean by not being human…’

The Dark Lord was claiming that I was a demon, not a human.

It was absurd.

So far, I have never been outside of the human species.

If you look at the abilities you have, you’ll probably have taken off the skin of a human a long time ago… To be

honest, there’s no way you can’t be treated as a human just because you have this much ability.

‘Since it was said to be a demon’s sanctuary, there may be other conditions.’

Maybe it wasn’t necessarily a demon to open it.

It could have been a rescue that was open to those who had killed more than a few demons, or it could have been a rescue that was open to those with divine power.

The number of cases that can be guessed at present is quite large.

Therefore, I asked the dark lord to tell me everything I knew about the sanctuary, but I didn’t like the answer that came back.

“No, seriously, how many times do you make me say that I don’t even know Jim anymore…!!”

“Then why is the sanctuary open?”

“That’s because you’re not human, so you’re open!”

“…And why did you suddenly stop being honorable?”

“Why do I have to respect my fellow demons! Jim is the king of demons!”

“….”

Seeing that the words that came back did not change no matter how many times I knocked on them, I think it was real….

In the end, according to the Dark Lord, I was just treated as a ‘not a human, but a demon’ for some reason. .

‘It’s not like they suddenly treated me like a demon, and it’s not a story with extremely low credibility.’

After thinking about it for a while, I had a flash of realization.

‘No way…’

And…

『Skill – Depersonalization (A+)』

『Proficiency level – 21%』

『Explanation – You can become a being that is out of the human species』

『Effect – In the human category It’s starting to come off gradually.]

…When he realized the skill he had stolen from the high-rich Calvet on the 4th floor, his mouth twitched.

“driving me crazy.”

I didn’t know because there wasn’t much to say about the change in the body….

As a higher-level effect of necromancy, ‘skill absorption inherits proficiency’ seemed to be a problem.

Since the high-rich Carbet’s skill proficiency was added to the skill that allowed him to escape the human species, he was treated as a demon.

‘Then, does it mean that I am a demon in terms of the system?’

Of course, this worked pretty well for now.

Originally, it became possible to enter the sanctuary, which would have been impossible to enter unless it was a demon.

But more than that, it made me anxious that the system wasn’t treating me as a human anymore.

“….”

After thinking for a while while concentrating, I came to a conclusion.

‘Let’s erase it later with skill synthesis and use it as much as we can for now.’

I immediately gave instructions to the Dark Lord.

“Anyway, since the sanctuary is open, you should go and see it.”

“…”

“Guide me.”

“Okay….”

The Dark Lord began guiding meekly, perhaps knowing that no matter what I said, it would not work.

I went down the gloomy stairs, and it wasn’t long before the suffocating air rushed in

.

‘Is it Magi?’

If I had the explorer’s handmade gloves (B+) I had bought before entering the giant tree labyrinth, I would have been able to turn all of these into an advantage… but since I didn’t have the

items I originally used, Magi choked me.

Of course, [HP] doesn’t wear out enough to stop breathing, and it’s just a little unpleasant, but…

‘This much even though King Manmaji has the magic resistance.’

Considering the tremendous magic resistance generated by the newly acquired skill of the Manmaji King, it was a tremendous miasma.

「The skill ‘King of the Manmaji King’ is activated.」

「Absorbs all demonic energy and converts it

into magic .」 didn’t go

By the time I continued my steps, a new space was revealed.

“We have arrived at the sanctuary.”

The underground sanctuary was equipped with an altar centered on the black spring water from which thick demonic energy flowed.

To him, I looked around with curious eyes and asked a question.

“They say it’s a sanctuary, but what the hell is this place for?”

“It is a place where offerings are made to the Demon God to receive holy relics and to infuse divinity into demons.”

“Sacred injection…?”

“Yes. All monsters in this giant tree labyrinth can receive divinity from that spring water.”

“…”

This is what I heard from High Rich Carbet on the 4th floor.

‘Come to think of it, I heard that the dark lord can inject divinity into monsters…’

So that’s why he went so far as to kill all the monsters on the 4th floor.

I never thought I would be able to come to this place

in person.

“Isn’t there no cost to injecting divinity into demons or monsters?”

“To some extent. However, neither demons nor monsters can absorb divinity beyond their own capacity.”

“Why?”

“It must be because it is a waste. There is no need to give more divinity to those who can’t use holy power properly.”

“…”

It is more reasonable than you think.

‘The strong are infused with a lot of divinity, and the weak are infused with less divinity…’

It was interesting.

It’s not that divinity is given according to one’s religious beliefs…

The amount of divinity granted is determined by whether or not one has the power to use the divine power well.

At this point, I couldn’t help but try it.

So…

“Wait a minute! Why are you suddenly going to the spring!? Didn’t you say you came to get the holy relic!”

I immediately put into practice my greedy thought of wanting to enter the spring.

The dark lord said as if he was worried about what he would do again, but…

“Don’t worry. I’ll take the holy relic when I’m done with it.”

“Don’t do anything dishonest! You will be cursed by the Demon God!”

To be honest, the only thing I was worried about was the Dark Lord, and I had nothing to do with it, so I laughed.

“What is a curse? I’ve never seen a Godhead like that before.”

I knew this because I had already experienced contact with the godhead several times.

No matter what you do in this place, you will not be cursed by the godhead.

Well, I don’t know if it’s not the godhead himself, but using the believer…

The devil’s followers in this fortress city are in a state of near annihilation, so there’s nothing to worry about.

“If I am not a human according to the system’s judgment…”

The next moment.

“You mean I can receive divinity too?”

I immediately threw myself into the spring water.

***

As soon as I fell into the black spring, a message appeared in my field of vision.

「You have entered the special area ‘Macheon(魔泉)’」

「Your body begins to erode rapidly in

demons .」

I read the message while killing the starting demon with the Manmaji King.

‘Except for the demonic erosion, it proceeds as I knew.’

overall combat power.

I could guess what this meant.

It’s probably a concept calculated by combining all the stats with skills and powers.

‘Necromancy power extraction works in a similar way, so I can infer it to some extent.’

Of course, like Necromancy, I’m not sure if combat power is calculated by the number of skills or powers… 「

Conditions satisfied .

」

will be able to

Shoot ah-!

At the same time as the flow of water gushing up from the depths of the spring, I felt a strange power dwelling in my body.

It was divinity.

‘Is this the demon’s divine power…’

It was surprising to feel the chaotic divine power rushing at random.

It was because, among the divinities I had seen so far, there was no one whose aura was as intense as this.

‘Except for the chaotic aura, divinity itself is very close to pure power.’

Well, those who properly absorbed this might have mental problems, but it was definitely useful anyway.

In addition…

‘Thanks to the pure power, it’s not that difficult to eat the divinity.’

The devil’s divinity could be eaten as much as he wanted through the divinity of transcendence.

Kwadde…!

If you squeeze out the chaotic energy itself once and shake it off, it becomes a great divine power and accumulates in your heart.

After repeating the process several times, a system message came to mind before I knew it.

「The grade of the authority ‘Divine Power (A-)’ will grow to the grade of ‘Divine Power (A)’.」 「The

authority ‘Divine Power (A)’ can now be strengthened by integrating < Myth >.

」 growth.

As if the divine power that had been accumulated until now was shining, it eventually grew.

‘It’s amazing.’

What was even gained through the growth of this divine power was the integration and strengthening of < Myth >.

‘Is it an ability that allows me to recycle all useless < myths >?’

Well, how < Shinhwa > will be integrated and strengthened is still unknown, but we will know sooner or later.

How helpful is the newly added divine ability.

I smiled at him enjoying the pleasure of growing up.

‘Really, the enemies related to demons give generous rewards.’

At this point, I felt good about being treated as a kind of demon.

But that was only for a moment.

[You have an insatiable greed for a child who has just established divinity! ]

I was horrified when I heard a voice that seemed to resonate with the soul in my head without any precursor.

“…!?”

It was worth it.

[I understand why the God of Darkness or the God of Proof is paying attention to you! Ha ha ha! It is definitely an unusual divinity! ]

Because this wasn’t the current situation I assumed.

[It’s definitely surprising that you have more than three divinities…! ]

I thought while listening to the extremely tense voice for some reason.

‘I didn’t know that the Demon God would reveal himself when I took the divine power…’ [

Oh, by the way, it was fun to come all this way through being a demon but having a body that wasn’t a demon! ]

Really…

[I liked it! Challenger Han Seong-yoon! ]

Nothing is going the way you think.

[I will offer you an alliance—! ]

Irregular appeared at an unexpected timing.
