Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 46
Episode 46. The prince hunts beasts.
======================
‘We must run away!’
Red Moon ran through the forest.
‘We need to increase our power again.’
He took a breath.
‘And revenge!’
I opened my mouth and cried.
Lycans and zombified beasts scattered in the forest joined Red Moon.
As soon as they entered the forest and formed a group, Redmoon shook off his fears.
Red Moon looked back.
There were no shadows of humans to be seen.
It was natural. I ran through the forest for a while.
Human feet will not be able to chase you.
Even if they chase me, I am confident that they will run away anywhere, even in the forest.
This is the Red Moon Forest. It is their territory.
Unless the forest itself was cut down, there were plenty of places to hide.
The corners of Red Moon’s mouth curled up in relief that he was alive.
I was really fortunate.
ㅡ…!
The moment he felt relieved, his face twisted into anger.
While running, Red Moon caught an animal and ripped its head off.
I opened my mouth and swallowed it.
After drinking the blood of animals and eating meat, the body began to recover to some extent.
-Damn it!
It was humiliating.
A human being would hunt down a lycan and turn it into a stuffed animal!
He was so frightened that he even screamed.
It was truly humiliating.
‘Whether it takes decades or hundreds of years, I will take revenge!’
This place was full of monsters and madmen.
To take revenge, he had to increase his power elsewhere.
A faint smell reached his nose.
Red Moon looked away.
I saw a group of humans.
Soldiers? Are they dispatched to rescue the princess?
Red Moon rolled her eyes again.
Dwarf Green Cross. Unidentified men in red clothes. And then I saw a small, weak boy leading them.
‘It looks weak.’
Red Moon stopped walking.
I hesitated and hesitated.
Because I was forcibly treating the wounds I sustained on my body, I became extremely hungry.
I want to eat human meat right now.
But…
‘You shouldn’t judge by appearances.’
The old man and the woman were like that.
This might not have been the case for a young boy, but still, there was no benefit in letting down one’s guard.
Moreover, if you attack from this side instead of chasing them, it will be at a disadvantage.
The only priority now is to run away…
At that time, a light flashed in the opposing formation.
Red Moon reflexively turned his head. A bullet of holy power passed by my head.
Kwachik!
The right cheek and mouth were torn off. My teeth were broken.
Red Moon covered her face.
If you didn’t instinctively avoid it, this is a blow that would blow your head off.
Red Moon glared at the boy who was moving the army.
The boy grabbed the long stick and tried to do something again.
Red Moon, seeing the vast amount of holy power gathering, opened its torn mouth wide.
oh my god! Is this a place full of monsters?
An old man, a woman, and now a boy like that?
Red Moon trembled and took a step back.
I don’t know how wide the thriving kingdom is, but if it’s full of things like that, there’s no way they can take revenge or anything.
Red Moon’s eyes shook with fear.
The boy takes a stance and aims his musket. A crazy smile appeared on his lips.
It’s a creepy smile, as if you’re looking at Princess Hilda.
-Are you going to be stuffed?
Red Moon remembered the princess’s words and screamed.
ㅡKaaaaaaaa!
The animals that shared his emotions trembled.
-Stop it. Stop that guy!
When Red Moon screamed, the beasts ran towards the group of humans.
Red Moon turned with the Lycans.
I had to run away.
We had to get out of this terrible nightmare quickly!
* *
“I was weak. As expected, the power decreases over 500m.”
I worked up an appetite.
In fact, it was a bullet fired without any intention.
In the first place, the musket of this world disintegrates and disappears after just 100m.
Thanks to the use of [Magic], it was possible to shoot from a long distance.
“yet again.”
I picked up the musket and aimed it at the red beast, Red Moon.
Red Moon hesitated, turned its back and ran away.
On the contrary, animals came running like swarms of insects in the thick fog.
“Tch, run away. Everyone prepare for battle!”
Belog shouted at my words.
“square!”
The dwarves slammed their shields on the ground.
He stuck out his spear between the shields and created a wall of short pikes.
The Green Cross members climbed the trees and fired crossbows and bows.
It is simply a zombified beast.
If we formed a formation and waited instead of pursuing, we would have the advantage.
However, if you do that, you will miss the Red Moon.
One of the Red Cross told me:
“It is a wounded animal. “This is the Red Moon that the Green Cross spoke of.”
Now I think I understand why the Green Cross was so calm.
I went through the forest looking for the traces left by Hilda. However, on the contrary, I encountered a mortally wounded Red Moon.
Are you saying that is Hilda and the Archbishop’s work?
“Shall we chase?”
The Green Cross said: The dwarves looked at me.
The fact that the Red Moon was nearby meant that Hilda, the Archbishop, and the kidnapped dwarves were also there.
For them, Hilda will be the top priority.
However, if you join Hilda, you will miss the fleeing Red Moon.
My head hurt.
I closed my eyes tightly.
Oh my God Gaia. please!
Why do I always end up like this?
I touched my forehead and opened my mouth with difficulty.
“Open the way. I hunt him. “The Green Cross team and the dwarves are heading to where my sister is.”
I couldn’t leave Red Moon alone.
I had to hunt before it became more of a hassle later.
The Green Cross approached and asked.
“Are you sure you don’t mind? Our help is…”
When it comes to tracking, the Green Cross is an expert.
But even they wouldn’t be able to chase down Lycans.
“are you okay.”
I called the Red Cross.
“You are with me.”
“All right.”
The Red Cross raised their weapons.
The Red Cross stepped on the dwarves’ shield wall, jumped on it, and defeated the beasts.
As I walked, dwarves spread out to the left and right, opening the path.
“I don’t miss it.”
I injected holy power into my legs.
Strengthened the body and amplified vision.
It has already disappeared from sight. There would definitely not have been any footprints left.
But they won’t know.
How terrible is the stench they emit.
“I don’t want to do this kind of troublesome work.”
Anyway, if it ends up like this, I have no choice but to use what I want to test on them.
I chased after the red lycan.
* *
Red Moon ran like crazy.
As a human, there was no one who could follow him in the forest.
But…
Kwasik!
The tree caved and burst. A gunshot rang out later.
The bullet was faster than sound.
Red Moon took a breath. I got scared and ran quickly, using a tree as cover.
I looked back.
A boy was chasing him. After that, people wearing red robes and masks followed.
‘I can’t escape!’
They are as tenacious as a hunting dog sniffing out a scent.
As the dead of the forest, they did not leave any traces in the forest.
There are no footprints or body odor.
The deeper they went, the more fog and thick darkness protected them.
Conversely, humans had to lose sight and get lost in the dark.
Nevertheless, that person pursued me until the end, no matter what method he used.
When I widened the distance, I was already in front of me.
It can’t be anything other than a terrible nightmare.
I can’t believe I, the hunter, am being hunted!
-I can’t die like this.
Red Moon checked the opponent’s strength.
The Green Cross and Dwarves, who were the most troublesome, were nowhere to be seen.
Red Moon ran away and watched the boy’s attack.
The boy’s actions were simple.
Breathed into the musket. And they fired at intervals of one minute.
That means that as long as you don’t let out your breath and don’t give it even a minute, there is no danger.
At that time, a lycan who was running with him was hit by a bullet of holy power and screamed before disappearing.
-Damn it!
Still, there are still close to 10 left.
Also, there are other creatures he created scattered nearby.
I don’t know how dangerous the boy is.
But it will be much better than the old man and the princess!
If you are going to be chased and hunted like this, it is better to fight back.
Red Moon twisted her legs.
I turned my running body and looked at the boy.
The boy and the men in red stopped hesitantly.
The boy didn’t look tired. In fact, when Red Moon stopped running, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.
“I guess you’ve given up now? Good idea. Coincidentally, my performance was close. How good is it to give up like this? “Let’s finish this quickly.”
The boy was not nervous.
Rather, it was showing relief that they no longer had to chase their prey.
A belittling attitude.
Red Moon glared at the boy.
-Give up? What are you talking about?
Red Moon twisted his head.
-This is our territory.
No matter how hurt and scared he was, he was the ruler of this place.
It is also the progenitor lycanthrope.
-A sturdy shield like a dwarf.
The boy has no power to stop the beasts’ fury.
-You don’t have legs as fast as the green man…
Also, if they are cornered, they are people who cannot escape and will be killed.
-Do you think you can defeat us?
Above all, he was overwhelmingly outnumbered.
The lycans turned. Wrapped around the boy and the Red Cross.
A red light shone in the forest.
Hundreds of animals crawled out.
Redmoon said as the boy raised his musket.
-Boy. Don’t move! As soon as he moved…
the boy ignored Redmoon’s words.
He lifted the musket and breathed into it.
Red Moon frowned and hurriedly shouted.
-You will be torn limb from limb and die! Not just you, but all of your subordinates!
As Red Moon spoke, lycans howled from all directions.
He bared his teeth and raised his nails.
The beasts threatened.
–So, if you want to save your subordinates, be quiet…!
At that time, the boy aimed his musket.
Red Moon twitched his eye muscles and grabbed the Lycan next to him, holding him out as a shield.
The lycan’s head exploded with a gunshot.
–…
Red Moon threw the headless Lycan on the floor and glared at the boy.
“So what?”
Red Moon stretched out her arms.
There was no way to communicate with these damn people.
* *
I glared at Red Moon.
The musket was raised again.
The Red Cross was alerted by that sight.
“I think it’s going to be dangerous this time. “Prince.”
That is correct.
Even if it was the Red Cross, it wouldn’t be easy to protect me in the forest, not on top of a spire, in front of lycans and numerous beasts.
In particular, the opponent is the progenitor lycanthrope.
There was no comparison with anything created.
He lost an eye, his cheek and mouth were torn, and he even lost his left arm.
Still, the stench he felt was truly unpleasant.
At least the Count Poromo I met was a guy worth tearing to death.
“But he’s much worse than the vampire count in Ronia.”
I can’t believe I’m going through all this trouble because of this guy.
As I raised my musket and tried to catch my breath, beasts rushed at me from all directions.
The cries of the dead struck my eardrums.
“Prince. Be careful…”
“Everyone close your eyes.”
The Red Cross looked at me.
There was a question in the eyes of the bird’s beak mask.
They looked at me as if I was wondering if they had misheard their orders.
I looked at the Red Cross.
“Close your eyes. And cover your ears. “I’m on my knees.”
I said while looking at the Red Cross.
“Are you sure you don’t trust me? There is a way, follow orders. “I will show you an amazing magic show later.”
I shrugged my shoulders.
The Red Cross nodded.
“…I will follow your orders.”
The Red Cross knelt down. I lowered my head, closed my eyes, and covered my ears with my hands.
This is indeed a fanatical belief.
Maybe they trusted me more because of what happened in the village.
This was enough.
There are no dwarves. There wasn’t even a Green Cross unit that gave priority to Hilda’s orders over mine.
The Red Cross is a group of fanatics who are willing to die for my orders.
From now on there are no ‘eyes to see’.
So this was ‘my territory’.
ㅡKoooooooooo!
Red Moon came running. Hundreds of animals opened their teeth and gathered to gnaw at me.
There’s something I wanted to try.
I summoned Amon’s skull from the item window and put it on my head. He recited the starter word softly.
The beasts jumped up.
At that time, Red Moon stopped walking.
Did he sense danger? He is a guy with excellent instincts.
But it was already too late.
We arrived at the ‘intersection’.
I smiled as I looked at the Red Moon inside Amon’s skull.
* *
The quiet sound of water rang out.
A pool of holy water was summoned around me.
There were skeletons standing there.
Tick-! Tick-!
Their bodies collapsed. The bones came together and clumped together.
Bone joints connect to form a new shape.
Countless bones erupted, stretching several meters.
A huge bone shape was formed, creating a new dead person.
Skeletons continued to crawl out of the puddle.
The dead man’s hand made of bone grabbed the weapons taken out from the item window.
Swords, spears, maces, sickles, chains, and other weapons.
Each hand held a weapon made by artisans.
Unfortunately, I had no talent for handling weapons.
I’ll have to think about it some more.
However, if there is no one watching me, there is no need to wield the weapon myself.
If you don’t have talent, a ‘dead person’ who knows how to use a weapon can wield it.
I am a necromancer who leads the undead army.
