Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 240
240. God of Proof (3)
Assassination.
Killing people without anyone knowing was another specialty of mine.
It was worth it.
There have been many times I’ve killed something without leaving a single witness.
「A task in the Sacred Zone < Proof Stage [Step 3] > has occurred.」
「※Task description: Secretly assassinate the emperor who worships the devil without any witnesses.」 「
※Task success condition: Assassinate the emperor without witnesses as much as possible. Things to do (0/1)」
「※Task Success Reward: Clear 3 stages · All stats +10 · Designated stat boost potion (A+)
」
「The special power ‘Ghost Magic’ is activated.」
「All energy has been switched to the presence blocking state.」
There is even a Ghost Magic skill obtained through a previous quest…
Imagine being discovered by someone for an assassination. did not go either
No matter who it is, they won’t notice my existence unless they openly use physical force.
In fact, the task was as if it had already been successful.
‘It won’t be that difficult to succeed in the task itself.’
In response, I immediately began to move while slowly examining the surroundings while blocking the presence.
As long as you know where the opponent is, you can always execute an assassination…
In a situation where you don’t know where the emperor is, you had to collect information.
And I’m curious about the background assigned to this task.
‘Is this world all fake like the trial of the tower?’
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind.
Even if it is an ancient deity, it would be close to impossible to reproduce a fake world like the tower.
But this time, the task given by the god of proof was like an ordeal in the tower.
If so, the answer is as if it were fixed.
“…”
As I thought about it with my eyes closed, a voice rang in my ears.
-It’s not even worth worrying about. Because godhood is not the top. This is a really real world.
Dam Chun-wu, who had come to his senses, read his thoughts and answered without even asking.
“Is that so.”
―It’s not even worth thinking about in the first place. Even if the holy ground is connected to the tower, do you think the tower will provide a fake world to the godhead?
“…”
―Even though the Tower will help with some of the rewards you get from the Holy Land, it won’t give you that much.
“I guess so.”
It was as if the answer had been decided from the beginning.
‘It’s impossible to sweep them all away with the Holy Light.’
If this was a real world, extensive assassination (?) using the holy light would not be possible.
Because it is the principle of not harming the innocent.
Well, the story would be different if someone like a monster or a demon was the target, but it doesn’t seem like that… It seemed like it would be
better not to do anything that could get ordinary people involved.
Bubbly.
As they were walking around the imperial palace and spreading the spirit, they saw people walking the streets.
For some reason, most of them looked haggard and had a lot of emotions close to frustration.
Only then did I understand the background behind the task to some extent.
The emperor who worships the devil, the people who are haggard to the point of heterogeneity, and even the success condition of assassinating the emperor…
“So that’s how it happened.”
After thinking for a while, I figured out the situation and smiled.
Presumably, the propensity of the Gods in the proofs I’ve seen so far was close to good.
Unlike the other deities I saw in the giant tree labyrinth, he wasn’t obsessed with power.
It’s just that I’m largely buried in achieving my own proof.
so i knew
‘Is this some kind of referee?’
It is to deal with the emperor who worships the devil and eradicate the seed of evil.
It also borrowed the form of a task.
I was intrigued.
In terms of being able to understand the one who is none other than the god of proof.
‘Perhaps if we read the intention behind this task, we can learn more about what kind of character the God of Proof is.’
And when you face the god of proof, you will be able to draw conclusions.
To trust him or not to trust him.
How far did you move while continuing to think?
Before I knew it, I was able to see a palace of enormous size that did not even fit my eyes.
“Is this the imperial palace?”
A figure with countless protection magic intertwined.
I could see it right away when I looked at the shape of the entangled magical power.
I’m guessing that as soon as I enter there, numerous interception systems will begin to intensively fire on me, and accordingly, the exclusion of intruders will begin.
Only then did I realize why assassination was one of the conditions for the success of the task.
‘If the facilities are well equipped like this, the emperor will be able to escape anywhere.’
In a word, if someone notices it, it will be very difficult to proceed with the task… It
means to take the emperor’s life by surprise without being noticed by anyone.
It’s structured like an Assassin game I played as a kid.
But…
‘Still, I’ll be able to speed up the assassination.’
There are tricks in the game.
It is also an expedient of rotten water beyond stagnant water that even game designers are astonished at.
The huge amount of experience accumulated while climbing the tower was telling me this.
I have the power like a cheat key, but why do I have to proceed according to the standard?
Sounds like nothing wrong.
So-.
‘Heart sword.’
Following my intuition, I immediately swung the blade of my heart by consuming the divine power in my heart.
───.
There was no sound of anything being cut.
It was just that the view of the imperial palace was slightly distorted.
But I was able to figure it out.
The fact that Shim Gum cut what he wanted.
Actually
….
The slightly distorted view of the imperial palace began to gradually change every second.
slowly but quickly.
After a few seconds, the change became visible to the naked eye.
It was because the imperial palace had been cut diagonally and was falling apart like a badly cut sandwich.
Imperial palace protection magic interception system call notification setting, etc…
Numerous functions that tried to exclude intruders were broken beyond repair.
It’s also very neat.
Woo woo woo woo-!
Then, I nodded as I looked at the imperial palace, which was soon split in half and flowed down on the land.
“hmm.”
Jagoro…
“Yes, this is an assassination.”
Assassination is what it should be.

「Challenger Seong-yoon Han’s victory brought her 0.003% closer to ascension.」

「 The skill ‘Fairy Hair (D+)’ is created…」
「Accomplishment ‘The One Who Forgot Fear’ is created…」
「The skill ‘Emotion Exclusion (C+)’ is created…]
“Heart Sword It’s a lot of rewards for hitting it once.”
Although not all skills are useless…
Still, some skills were valuable, and even if they weren’t, it was enough to change them to divine power, so it could be said that it was a great benefit.
But there was no time to be content with that.
People poured out of the collapsed imperial palace.
“Ugh! Your Majesty Your Majesty…! His Majesty was attacked by a beast of prey…!”
“Damn it! What was the imperial mage doing! Why didn’t the protection magic activate!”
“order! Where are the Knights!? Hurry up and find the beast and punish it!”
I swung my sword in the direction where I could feel the light demonic energy.
It seems that the emperor died right away, probably because his intuition was correct.
Other than that, the others seem to be still alive and well.
At least there didn’t seem to be too many casualties.
‘Still, I should say it’s fortunate that I’ve become good at controlling my strength.’
If he had exerted more power than this, other than the emperor would have died.
If this is growth in its own way, you can call it growth.
But something was strange.
Originally, if you assassinated the emperor, it would be normal if the message that the task was cleared immediately pops up…
“Why doesn’t the task clear message appear?”
A situation where those who escaped from the imperial palace were scattered in confusion.
However, there was a problem that the message that the task was cleared did not appear even at this time.
I tried to think about why… but
I didn’t have to think so deeply.
That would be the case too…
「The evil spirit looks at the challenger Han Seong-yoon and reveals its anger.」
It was not difficult to find out the cause.
「The evil god wants to make challenger Han Seong-yoon pay for the crime of destroying the toy.」 I
didn’t know that this would turn out like this, but
now it seems that the emperor who worships the devil had something to do with the godhead.
I fumbled with my memory, and soon I was able to recall the deity called the evil god.
It was a deity worshiped by an ancient demon he faced in the giant tree labyrinth.
“….”
I wondered if the third task in < Chapter of Proof > was so easy, but now I can understand why the task was so simple.
It’s nothing else…
“The evil spirit is breathing new life into the ruined preliminary apostle.”
This is because the emperor of this country was one of the preliminary apostles chosen by the evil spirit.
Namely-.
Even if he died once, the emperor could be resurrected, so the task was not as easy as he thought.
I was laughing at him because I was dumbfounded, so a message came up next.
“The evil god looks at the god of proof and points his finger at the god
of proof !
” “The god of proof tells the evil god that there will be no major damage anyway.” ”
“The God of Proof laughs, saying that he will
lose as much as he
wants .”
He acted confidently as if nothing mattered.
Even in a situation where he might be harmed by evil spirits.
‘I’m really out of my mind.’
At most, to deal with a feud with another deity for one task?
I was able to realize that the God of Proof was crazy beyond imagination.
But that was only for a moment.
「An evil god has breathed new life into a broken toy.」 「
The evil god has promoted a broken toy
from a reserve apostle to a 4th-class official apostle .
」 Oh oh-!
As soon as I noticed through the system message that the evil spirit was manipulating, something strange happened.
Suddenly, black energy surged from the ruins created by the collapse of the imperial palace.
It’s also a very familiar vibe.
「Razgin von Tarmion, a 4th-class formal apostle, has awakened as a [Demon King]
.
」
「The skill ‘Manmaji King萬魔之王’ is activated.」
That should be the case too…
“The situation is going interestingly.”
After all, I can say that I am one of the demon lords.
