Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 493
493. Stopover (1)
The pioneer And the fact that not one but two more pioneer laws are created is not something to be taken lightly.
‘…I thought it was possible, but I never thought that an administrator who had a record of being chosen as a pioneer at the Tower of Trials would not lose and keep the laws of vision that he gained as a pioneer.’
This is something you can immediately realize just by looking at the system messages in front of you.
[You can learn the ‘Law of Perception’ by selecting one of the new halos.]

‘So. The Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman. As they are both seers, they both have one of these seer laws, right?’
It was enormous.
A power that even the three ancient godheads of the universe do not possess.
What would happen if the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Sword possessed each of them, and if I, as a pioneer, also learned the laws of vision?
At least from now on, you will climb up the Tower of Trials and reach the final floor very easily, rather than feeling a sense of crisis.
Of course, more than that is possible.
‘It was said that with the massive expansion of the system, managers who signed a contract with a challenger can participate in trials together and it has also become possible to move to another dimension with the challenger himself.’
This means that the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Sword can be taken to Earth to prepare for any emergency.
‘Anyway, I wasn’t relieved with just Catherine Bennett and Lee Ha-yeon on Earth, but the benefits gained from the massive expansion of the system were greater than I expected.’
At first, I thought negatively about the expansion of the Tower of Trials system, but not anymore.
It is no exaggeration to say that thanks to the massive expansion of the system, the risk burden this side has to shoulder has been reduced significantly.
Perhaps the Tower of Trials didn’t want to do me any good, but they probably didn’t have any way to do anything about it.
There is no way left to stop me now.
‘Maybe the Tower of Trials knew this would be the case and was trying to get me to betray the administrators.’
At this point, I began to understand why the Tower of Trials was trying to trick me into betraying and killing the managers I had directly contracted with.
‘If the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman, who became pioneers and learned the laws of vision, come all the way here and join in, there will be no answer.’
Is that why?
Suddenly, I felt bad about not being able to contact the Iron Blood Lord and the White Crane Swordsman sooner and take better care of them.
As I climbed the Tower of Trials, with the intention of becoming a transcendent, I focused on becoming stronger, not even returning to Earth, nor even having a light chat with anyone.
However, the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman would also understand that fact as they would know it.
‘Well, not only the Lord of Iron Blood but also the White Crane Swordsman is generous, so he shouldn’t have been angry.’
But…
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ waits for you to contact him and gives a cold smile, exhausted.]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ looks at you carefully and wants to talk to you. I’m waiting.]
[Manager ‘Steel Blood Lord’ unconsciously breaks the handle of the teacup as he waits for the contractor’s visit.]
[Manager ‘Baekhakgeomseon’ looks at you intently and waits for you to talk to him. There is.]
[….]
“….”
Isn’t that so?
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ chews his lips with a cold smile as he waits for the contractor’s visit.]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ looks at you gently with lifeless eyes and talks to you. I’m waiting for you.]
[Administrator ‘Lord of Iron Blood’ chews his lips with a cold smile as he waits for the contractor’s visit….]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ is looking at you lifelessly. He is looking at you intently with his eyes, waiting for you to talk to him….]
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ chews his lips with a cold smile as he waits for the contractor’s visit…]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon’ (白鶴劍仙)’ was looking at you with lifeless eyes, waiting for you to talk….]
[….]
It was cold.
In the beginning, not only the Lord of Iron Blood but also the White Crane Swordsman seemed to be patiently waiting for this side to arrive, but as time passed, things completely changed.
The Lord of Iron Blood broke the handle of the teacup and chewed his lips, waiting for me to contact him. Unlike before, where White Crane Swordsman just stared at me, something strange changed.
‘Why on earth are they both reacting so strongly…?’
There was a sense of tension because it had been a long time since the Iron Blood Lord or the White Crane Swordsman had been so full of system messages.
‘Maybe I did something wrong?’
I’d like to believe that’s not the case, but looking at those two’s extremely intense behavior, it seems like there’s something wrong.
‘I don’t know…’
The fact that this person hasn’t been in contact with those two for a long time is something that can’t be helped, and it’s not something they should be hated for.
[Administrator ‘Steel Blood Lord’ tells you not to send any more system messages to the other person sitting in front of the table.]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ narrows his eyes as he looks at the other person sitting in front of the table with cold eyes. .]
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ smiles and asks the person sitting in front of the table what they are so dissatisfied with.]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ is in a snowy village as a teacher and student are sharing their stories after a long time. The woman from . softly says that there is no need.]
[The manager, ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’, is grinning that he doesn’t know why the second person who came in is acting like a red-blooded general when he was the first contractor.]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍)仙)’ sneers, saying that if being the first contractor is only his greatest achievement, he cannot be compared to himself, who formed a relationship between priests.]
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ grits his teeth and stands up with a cool smile. It flies.]
[Administrator Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙) feels the need to properly organize the ranks at this opportunity and adjusts the handle of his sword.]
[….]
It was an unusual atmosphere.
At this point, it feels like something big will happen just by not contacting those two.
And immediately, without wasting time, I stood up, took a deep breath, parted my lips, and spoke quietly.
“…The Lord of Iron Blood. And Baekhakgeomseon. Any one of you is welcome, so please invite me. “We will meet in turn.”
and.
Tiring, tiring, tiring!
Next moment.
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ invites you to the common waiting room.]
[Manager ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’ invites you to the common waiting room.]
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ invites you to the common waiting room. Invitation….]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon’ invites you to the common waiting room….]
[Administrator ‘Steel-Blooded Lord’ invites you to the common waiting room…. ]
[Administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon’ invites you to the common waiting room….]
“….”
In the blink of an eye, my vision was filled with system messages, and at the same time, I lost consciousness.
***
The feeling of going crazy only lasted for a moment.
System messages were still appearing in my field of vision and invitation requests were still coming in.
Because of that, the longer this person stays silent, I don’t know why, but both of them seem to have a strange sense of competition and are sending system messages more intensely than before.
No matter how dull I may be, at this point I couldn’t help but notice that the two were feeling an inexplicable sense of competition with each other.
‘…Just by looking at it, it looks like this will continue without stopping if I pick one person and don’t accept the invitation request.’
In the end, I recognized that there was a need to respond to an invitation request from either the Iron Blood Lord or the White Crane Swordsman.
‘What should I do?’
To be honest, since both of them had a relationship in many ways, not only because they signed an apostolic contract with this side, it was not difficult to take sides.
“….”
However, I was lost in thought for a moment.
‘ah.’
There was one answer.
‘Why did I forget that?’
It’s a very clear answer that doesn’t require us to single out just one of the two and take sides.
Hold-.
[Execute exclusive authority #B-714 [Move area].]
[Please specify the administrator area to be moved.]
And.
[Designation complete.]
[Move to the common waiting room of administrator ‘Steelblood Lord’ and administrator ‘Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙)’.]
The next moment.
widely-.
Just like that, I realized that I had arrived in a new space and looked around.
‘Is this the common waiting room where the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman are located?’
The place that the Tower of Trials named the ‘communal waiting room’ was different from the typical private waiting room used by challengers.
It’s as big as hundreds of private waiting rooms combined.
As if that wasn’t enough, its internal structure was also very different from a typical private waiting room.
There are snowflakes piled up all over the common waiting room that you don’t even know where they came from, and there are cute big and small bamboos that don’t match the snowflakes.
At first glance, it looks similar to the challenger’s personal waiting room, but if you look specifically inside the stone room, there is no resemblance at all.
‘…Honestly, at this point, I think it should actually be called a model garden rather than a waiting room.’
If I were to be specific, I think it would be more like a combination of the manager’s areas rather than a waiting room used by challengers.
Jump and jump.
However, it only takes a moment to look around and feel interested in the common waiting room that the Tower of Trials has created for administrators.
‘ah.’
Ta-da-da-da-da-da-!
Suddenly, I realized that someone was running quickly in front of me, so I turned my head, and soon I could feel the warmth and soft texture.
Ouch-!
It’s none other than….
“…Finally, after a long time, you came to my side. Seongyun.”
Baekhakgeomseon.
The manager who signed the second contract at the Tower of Trials realized that I was visiting and came running all the way here.
Perhaps because I was hugged by Baekhakgeomseon at a completely unexpected moment, I felt embarrassed for a moment, but it did not last long.
Ouch-!
Suddenly, the White Crane Swordsman, which was held in my arms as if diving, buried its head in this body and began to thrash around.
‘uh?’
Was it because it was truly unexpected?
For some reason, it felt like my brain’s thinking function was completely and temporarily interrupted.
However, apart from that, Baekhakgeomseon continued his meaningless journey while being held tightly to me, and then took a deep breath.
“Suuuuuu…. Phew….”
“….”
“Phuhuh….”
“…?”
Seeing him exhaling heavily as if he were an airport drug detection dog made me feel a bit of a sense of strangeness.
“that. Master? “Excuse me, but could you tell me why you’re like
this…” He said that with a bitter smile, as if he was in trouble, but the answer he received was not kind.
“later.”
“yes?”
“I want to talk about it later.”
“….”
“…Is that so? I was waiting for you to come back. From then until now. I waited a long time. Seongyun.”
“…Is that so.”
“Then I think I can feel a little reward for waiting in this way. As a teacher. And as your companion. Don’t you deserve it, Seongyoon? Please answer me.”
“Uh… um… well, if Master says that, I guess I don’t really have anything to say…”
I replied as if I was embarrassed, and then realized that there was something foreign in those words. .
‘Even if the teacher is like that, he’s still a companion?’
Well, considering that they are managers who signed an apostolic contract at the Tower of Trials, they should be like partners, but for some reason, it felt like that wasn’t what they meant.
“…Seongyoon. What you just said is that I am a very special person to Seongyoon that I can enjoy him like this? Is that so?”
no.
“…you’re right.”
That was actually the case.
“great. Seongyoon After hearing those words, I feel relieved. “It was worth waiting for Seongyoon for a long time.”
Just like that, Baekhakgeomseon gently lifted his head buried in this body as if he had caught on to something and smiled mischievously.
[Administrator Baekhakgeomseon (白鶴劍仙) is very satisfied with your answer and boasts to someone.]
“…Hehehe. So Seongyoon himself said that? As a teacher and companion, I deserve this. “It’s different from that story.”
and.
Sabak Sabak-.
The moment when Baekhakgeomseon slightly turned his head back with a smile that seemed to be somewhat ridiculed.
Ujijik-!
“Hoo. … That’s a really interesting story. It’s also really fun. Isn’t it? “Han Seong-yoon.”
From where her gaze was directed, a beautiful woman with a familiar face wearing a uniform walked out with a somewhat angry expression on her face.
“…Han Seong-yoon. It seems like you and I haven’t seen each other in a very long time. “I think we might have a story to share.”
…The Iron-Blooded Lord tore off the bamboo standing next to him like a piece of paper and gave off a cold look.
Tap, tap, tap!
“….”
“Let me ask you one question.”
The Iron-Blooded Lord took long strides to where he was standing and then put his face in with a cruel smile.
“As a teacher. And as a companion. Did you agree that Baekhakgeomseon deserves to share deep expressions of affection with you? Then I guess so too. yes?”
“…uh? Oh yes. Isn’t that of course true? “The Iron Blood Lord is also a special person to me.”
When I made an effort to respond to the silent pressure suddenly poured out by the Iron-Blooded Lord, she made a huffing sound and turned her head.
“Hmm? Han Seong-yoon himself says so. “It doesn’t seem like I have a lower priority than any sword-wielding gorilla.”
“….”
“It’s pitiful. I think his specialty is claiming that he is a teacher… Now that I know that he is no different from me. “It will be difficult to be proud from now on.”
“You…”
“Ahaha.”
Why?
Would it be an illusion if Baekhakgeomseon seemed to have a cold look on his face after hearing those words?
…Probably not.
That’s because Baekhakgeomseon didn’t just start hugging me more tightly, he suddenly started pinching me with the nails of both hands.
As a strange tension began to form between the three, the Lord of Iron Blood drew in the corners of his mouth and made eye contact as if he was interested.
“hmm. Now that we’ve come this far, shall I ask one more question? “I hope you answer well this time too.”
and.
“…that woman. and me. “If you had to choose between the two here, who would you choose? Han Seong-yoon.”
The moment when the Iron Blood Lord casually asked a question about a bombshell topic.
‘ah.’
As soon as Baekhakgeomseon started looking at me with his eyes shining brightly, he instinctively realized one thing.
‘…I’m in big trouble.’
…This is a hell-difficulty problem that needs to be answered more carefully than expected.
