Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 139
Episode 139 〈 Small Clue 〉
It happened a long time ago.
An event and experiment at a large gaming company.
As the live broadcast took place, recruiters like me entered a large capsule.
“Oh, don’t be nervous.”
I looked at the man in the gown next to me.
Although the room is at an appropriate temperature, the man is sweating coldly and operating the complex machine I am lying on.
I made eye contact with the game developer who was operating the machine.
“Don’t be nervous and take a deep breath. John.”
Are you speaking informally out of nowhere? Besides, Johan?
It’s not my name.
“I am not John.”
The developer was startled and waved his hands.
“haha! I know. “The name John is me.”
“…”
“Whoa!” This makes me nervous. This is my first time doing a live broadcast. Moreover, the world’s first reality virtual reality game will be released!”
The developer rubbed his hands together like a fly, as if he was relaxing.
I feel uneasy looking at that.
“Have you done clinical trials?”
“yes? of course. Otherwise, there would be no way to broadcast a live broadcast like this. “You can rest assured.”
There was a pause for a moment.
Smiling awkwardly also makes me anxious.
I can’t help but feel nervous.
When I look around, I see people who appear to be doctors everywhere diagnosing the people in the capsules.
“If you’re nervous, read this. “It will be a refreshing change of pace.”
During the waiting time, the developer held out a book.
[The Ring Story.]
It is a famous overseas fantasy novel.
It is the latest revised version of the classic masterpiece and was also made into a movie.
I accepted it.
“Then I’ll leave.”
The developer leaves the room.
I opened the book ‘The Ring Story’ and looked through the contents inside.
〈Now let’s begin. Everyone please wait! 10 minutes before the live broadcast!
The sound of the microphone was heard.
Before the egg-shaped capsule door closed, I placed the book on the shelf next to it.
The book flipped over to reveal the publication date on the back.
Publication date April 28, 20xx.
〈Then let’s begin.〉
The capsule closed.
Time passes.
The flow of a broadcast.
I chose an occupation based on the guidance message I heard in my ear.
At that time, the emergency bell rang so hard that it deafened my ears.
〈What’s going on!〉
An urgent voice suddenly sounded.
And my body gets hot.
〈What happened!〉
〈Stop the broadcast, turn off the broadcast!〉
〈Who brought the defective capsule!〉
〈Who is the guy who repaired that capsule!〉
〈Boo! Fire extinguisher!〉
A terrible pain as if an electric current was flowing throughout my body.
and.
〈Blah… Rackhole…?〉
A feeling of being sucked in.
It feels as if someone is forcibly squeezing and pulling on my body.
I am sucked into an unknown space.
My vision rotates in the dark.
There is no body. Only the soul swirled.
Through the endless darkness, I bounced into a passageway where I could see a bright light.
And when I came to my senses….
“Whoa!”
The head was hanging in the middle of the Forest of Death.
“Kaaaaak!”
Blood rushes to the head.
I grabbed the rope with my fingers.
It is difficult for the cervical spine to withstand the pressure.
I lost my footing and struggled.
All kinds of knowledge comes to mind.
Magic necromancer necromancy skills.
Instinctively, a hoarse sound came out of my mouth.
“The dead…the resurrection of the dead.”
At the muttering, a rotten corpse crawls out onto the ground.
“Save me… Save me!”
The zombie rolled its eyes and stretched out its hand.
He grabbed the rope hanging around his neck and ripped it off.
“Haaah….”
Cold air entered my lungs.
I fell to the floor and looked up at the sky.
I could see it in my fading vision.
A place full of plants you’ve never heard of.
An unknown, unfamiliar world.
That was my last memory of arriving in this world.
**
Ice castle hallway.
I wiped my face as I looked at the novel.
Fragments of past memories were put together.
“I remembered.”
I saw the back cover of [The Ring Story].
Publication date April 28, 20xx.
The place I was and the book I was reading.
Oh damn.
I cursed inwardly without realizing it.
I press my temples.
Confusion came.
What happened? Is this thing called warp related to me?
What was the reason I came here…?
“Stop subjugation.”
The movement of the dead who had spread throughout the ice castle stopped.
I pressed my temples and glanced at the novel.
And then he opened his mouth.
“Capture all vampires alive.”
The eyes of the skeletons in the ice castle wavered.
“Capture them alive without leaving a single one behind.”
I have no intention of keeping the vampire alive.
I just have something to ask.
“And…interrogate him.”
They accepted the orders of the dead and moved.
The screams from the ice castle become more intense.
The dead held maces and shields, not swords and spears.
They advance with crossbows and bows instead of muskets.
“Please save me!”
Skeletons hit vampires with maces.
They dragged me by their legs, made hedgehogs with bows and crossbows, and brought vampires with tough vitality to me.
asked the vampires.
I looked at the book and asked what this was.
The vampires shook their heads and said they didn’t know.
“shit.”
The idiots here don’t know anything.
We need a ‘progenitor’, not a created being.
The person who designed the warp.
“Find Count Timon.”
He is a count-level vampire.
It would be impossible for ordinary dead people.
“Kasim Nasus!”
I put my foot down on the floor.
A lake of holy water was summoned, and Kasim and Nasus crawled out of it, muddy.
They knelt before me and bowed their heads.
“Capture the Count alive.”
**
Count Timong gathered materials about the warp.
Although all the records were in my head, it was an item that should not be taken away by humans.
‘Someone deciphered the warp I created!’
The saying that he came by riding his own warp means that it is highly likely that the warp was done by an alchemist, not a wizard.
This is beyond common sense.
What kind of crazy person is this?!
It is a warp that he himself was able to create after studying for more than a thousand years.
It was encrypted in ancient script.
‘I deciphered that too.’
He is a genius who comes along once in a thousand years.
‘If these materials are taken away by that guy…’
Someone other than yourself will have authority over the warp.
That can’t happen.
It is only you who can look into the realm of God and realize the truth.
“I have to run away.”
The data cannot be discarded.
Gathering other WARP researchers and conducting research based on this data can save decades.
Count Timon drew a warp line on the floor.
‘Run away. ‘Further and further!’
Even warp isn’t safe.
If it had interpreted the warp, it was obvious that it would chase after it.
So you have to warp and run away.
‘Damn it, the goal is right in front of us!’
He who drew the warp put magical energy into it.
I thought the warp was in effect, but the magic power bounced off.
“what…?”
It is a warp disruption magic.
‘oh my god. ‘Is there a wizard interfering with the warp?’
How thoroughly did you prepare?
Count Timon gritted his teeth.
The path to the warp was blocked.
Now I have no choice but to run on my feet.
Carrying his luggage, he hurriedly ran to the balcony.
Look under the railing.
The height of the top of the ice castle is 120m.
A cool wind blows and snow falls.
Count Timon, clutching the railing, broke into a cold sweat.
“Will it be safe if I jump?”
Even with a vampire’s regenerative ability, it is dangerous.
Above all, aren’t you a combat type?
No, this is not the time to hesitate.
I grit my teeth.
I stood on the railing.
It was then.
thud-!
The sound of air bursting was heard.
When Count Timon reflexively turned his head, something fiercely flew towards Count Timon through the wind.
The ‘Blade of the Wind’ cut off Count Timon’s leg.
“uh…?”
lose one’s balance
The luggage hits the railing and falls into the ice castle.
Count Timon also collapsed, but was inside the railing.
Something quickly approached and grabbed Count Timon’s head.
He is a man with large hands and a body of over 2m 50m that spreads light.
‘Berserker?’
Cassim Derian hit Count Timon’s head on the floor.
thud-!
The floor collapses.
The balcony tilted dangerously.
“Aaaah!”
Count Timon’s eyes rolled back.
What is that? Dead? The living?
‘Holy Undead…? ‘Oh my God, is there such a miracle!’
The corners of Count Timon’s mouth quirked up.
Despite the situation, his inquisitive nature arose without him knowing.
Even at the moment his head was broken, he, an alchemist to his core, fell into joy at the sight of the divine undead.
‘No, this is not the time!’
You have to run away.
There is a mission to complete the warp gate.
Count Timon slammed his palm down on the balcony floor.
Five long fingers moved strangely, cutting the floor and quickly drawing a magic circle.
A powerful spell that will blow away the berserker in front of you.
It was time to summon it.
Kwasik-!
Christmas flew and blew Count Timon’s hand off.
“Ugh!”
Count Timon’s eyes rolled over.
A lich covered in robes.
Nasus was standing there, aiming a musket.
‘A musket is this powerful?’
Count Timon had an ecstatic expression even in pain.
Improbable miracles unfolded before his eyes. This
was the first time in three years since he succeeded in warp that he felt this much joy.
“You are Count Timon.”
Count Timon rolled his eyes.
A boy passed Rich Nasus and stood in front of the balcony.
Cassim Derian moved.
He lifted Count Timon’s head and stretched out his hand over the railing.
Count Timon was hanging on, looking down at the railing. I saw it.
There was a pit in the distance where the giant was sealed, and there was only the frozen ground below him.
If he fell, there was a chance he would survive.
Count Timon looked at Allen and grinned.
“Why did you make me fall, human?”
“I won’t do that because I can live with it. vampire.”
Allen stretched out his hand and pierced Count Timon’s chest.
“Wooow!”
Fingers peeled off skin and crushed ribs.
Grab your heart.
“But if the body disappears and falls, you will die.”
Allen infused his holy power.
“Aaaah!”
All of Count Timon’s organs burned out.
Even the skin on the outside melts away.
“I will ask.”
Allen took out a book with his other hand and showed it to Count Timon.
“Where did you get this novel?”
Count Timon’s eyes rolled back in the searing pain.
A book with an unknown symbol that Allen is holding.
It is a book whose material and text content are unknown.
However, for Count Timon, it was the result that brought him ‘success’ for the first time in his life.
One of my most cherished items.
Count Timon burst into laughter.
‘Ah, it’s this guy.’
He clicked his tongue as he looked at Allen in front of him.
‘This guy interpreted my warp.’
That might be why.
You probably want to know about that unidentified book.
Because the paper and cover are made of materials that cannot be made in this world.
“I don’t know, how can I know!”
The warp gate that opens the portal is all you need.
Are you going to tell the guy in front of you?!
Allen infused his holy power once again.
Count Timon coughed up blood.
Even the blood that was spit out turned into dust and disappeared.
Groaning in pain, Count Timon burst into laughter.
“haha! Try torture. Do you think my beliefs that I have maintained for thousands of years will be broken so easily?”
He was the first to open a portal in the modern era.
He was absorbed in the feeling of superiority that he was one step ahead of any other alchemist.
“You must be curious.”
Count Timon glared at Allen.
Yes, he must be nervous.
That book is proof of dimensional travel. It
is the alchemist’s ultimate goal!
“How that novel came to this world! But I won’t tell you…
” Count Timon’s eyes widened.
Goosebumps appeared all over his body.
He replayed the words Allen had said in his head.
Breaking into a cold sweat, Count Timon asked Allen,
“…How do you know it’s a novel? ?”
It’s an unknown character.
I tried to translate it, but I couldn’t translate it for three years.
It’s clearly a concise character with a specific pattern.
But because it was so simple, I just judged it to be a character symbolizing something.
Is it theology, a textbook, or a treatise? There is no way to know whether it is a novel or an art book.
But the boy in front of me is certain that it is a ‘novel’.
Even though he must have seen it for the first time today.
“…What are you?”
“…”
“What the hell…!”
Count Timon was struggling with his only hand.
He reached out and grabbed Allen’s shoulder and cried out imploringly,
“Teach me! I want to know what it is!”
Now I have nothing but pride.
I had to ask.
A clue, a clue to dreams and hopes!
“Tell me! Do you know about the other dimension? What kind of place is the next dimension? What…!”
“I’ll teach you if you answer the question.”
“I will tell you. I will tell you!”
Count Timon was excited.
He found a clue.
70 years when he was alive, 1,000 years and 200 years in the past.
A longing for a whopping 1,270 years.
The boy in front of him knew the answer. .
Of course, I can’t help but lose my mind.
“July 32nd!”
Allen was startled and his eyes widened.
The date of this world where he came into possession of this body.
Count Timon spoke of the record in his head at that time.
“I penetrated space for the first time. A warp gate connected to another world was opened. Purgatory as well. “It’s not the spirit world or the giant world!”
Count Timon recalled what had happened at that time.
All kinds of experiments related to the warp were carried out.
In one of them, a portal was opened.
It was truly absurd.
No powerful energy was used or sacrifices were made. It was
just a basic warp that went beyond space and time. The gate opened.
I don’t know if it was accidental or inevitable.
It was like a miracle of God.
Something was sucked in and spewed out from the opened warp gate.
“Unknown metal and skillful lines!”
And one novel called [The Ring Story].
All were broken into pieces, but only one novel arrived intact.
It passed through a narrow dimensional gap.
“And one soul!”
Allen’s eyes widened.
“It was a soul from another world, not from purgatory. I kept the unknown items. And the soul…”
That was it.
That soul.
“It bounced off and disappeared. !It must have wandered aimlessly somewhere or disappeared.”
It was Allen.
