Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits - Chapter 13

Episode 13. The time for

talent evolution, end-of-month evaluation, and infinite power training went by quickly, and a week had passed since I tried to make a new potion.

Thanks to that, the calendar turned to a new page and it has been a month since I came to this world.

“Experiment 1495 failed.”

Another note added to the notebook I brought with me.

A week had passed since the day I decided to make it, but the recovery and regeneration potion showed no sign of success.

Since there are more ingredients than the first stamina potion, the difficulty doubled.

‘It’s too late at this rate.’

My mind was impatient.

If Lucia was with me, I would have made one of them by now, but I couldn’t get her help every time.

However, it was true that when I saw the number of experiments exceeding 1000, I was anxious.

I finally decided to use the number of trumps I had been hiding.

[Adrias Cromwell: 89% chance of evolution for potion-making buffs]

[Do you want to evolve?]

I wanted to set it to 100% as much as possible, but I couldn’t stand it any longer.

Of course, it wouldn’t be possible to make potions right away just because the talent evolved, but it was true that it was expected.

“Goes.”

I prepared my mind and chose evolution.

[Adrias Cromwell: Evolution of potion manufacturing buff series]

[Evolving… … .]

[Remaining time: 21 hours 1 minute 46 seconds]

Is it done? nothing happened?

I looked around, but nothing was wrong.

When I first used it, I thought it would hurt because Angela screamed so much, but it didn’t.

“I think I may have a little fever.”

When I touched his forehead, it felt a little warm.

As if he had caught a cold, his body aches gradually began to develop.

Of course, I was able to survive this much without any problems.

Besides, it wasn’t even a week, like Angela’s, but only 21 hours, and it was said that it would be over by the time the lecture was over tomorrow afternoon.

No big deal!

“good. Shall we start over?”

Time is more important to me than gold.

A cold can’t stop me.

* * *

There was a big event prepared for October at the academy.

It was none other than the midterm evaluation at the end of the month.

It felt similar to a midterm exam in the old world, but it wasn’t simply solving problems written on paper.

The content of the evaluation was different every year and every time, so I didn’t know what would come out.

I just hoped it was a task that I could do without difficulty.

“Now, let’s end today’s class here. And from now on, I will talk a little about the midterm evaluation at the end of the month.”

Intermediate Combat Magic, a 3rd grade required major lecture that must be taken unconditionally even if you don’t want to hear it, was literally a detailed lecture that taught you everything from the explanation and description of attack magic to the basic mindset and behavior in battle.

The professor’s name is Tolman Venuel.

As a retired battle mage, he was a veteran who had worked for over 10 years at the border of the northern mountains.

I’ve heard that it’s a place where dozens of soldiers go out every day, but if you’ve worked for over 10 years, that’s really great.

Even I was in the special forces for over 10 years, but I didn’t carry out the mission every day, so his greatness touched me even more.

Also, he was a person with a lot of help and teaching to the playable characters, so I tried to pay as much attention as possible.

“I don’t know if the other classes have been evaluated, but in Combat Magic, we decided to go on a field trip to the Knights Faculty during this midterm evaluation period.”

“The Knights Faculty?”

“What is a field trip? Are you just watching?”

When a completely unexpected topic came up, the students became agitated.

And I was able to identify a person whose eyes lit up at the story of the Faculty of Engineering.

“Knight Faculty!”

She is none other than Diane Alven.

Despite being a wizard, he is a huge fan of knights.

It was just a setting in the game, so I didn’t pay much attention to it while playing the game.

Of course, thanks to that setting, she becomes the heroine of the first playable character.

For reference, the first playable character was a freshman in the Faculty of Engineering who will enter next year.

‘Should I say it’s fortunate.’

I wondered if I should consider it fortunate that an event like this happened before admission.

As many as three playable characters among the freshmen entering next year.

And all three of them belonged to the Knights Faculty and were the ones who would kill Adrias.

“The information is here. Details will be explained on the day of the evaluation.”

Professor Tolman left the classroom with those words.

Then the students were busy reasoning with each other about the evaluation.

“Isn’t it a match with a driver’s degree student?”

“Hey, anyway, is that so? How do we beat the knight head-to-head?”

“That’s why it’s not the same grade, but I’ll put it with the lower grades.”

“That hurts your pride!”

“Then what do you think?”

“huh? I know. What can we do when we go to the Knights Faculty?”

I was curious too.

If anything, I wanted to get good grades because I was aiming for graduation, but like I said, if the evaluation was a couple, I was confident that I would lose without using my hand.

I knew everything about the evaluations and exams from next year because I had played the same 3rd grader, Diene, but this year I had no choice but to leave it to chance.

‘Maybe I’ll just have to wait until this year.’

As long as they brought evolution, the potential for growth was overflowing.

However, since my current skills were very poor, it was difficult to show a good appearance, at least in the upcoming evaluations.

‘okay. For now, let’s take it slowly, one step at a time.’

Soon it’s time to evolve your potion crafting talent.

Of course, it’s not 100%, but if it’s 89%, it’s possible to evolve.

I had to use this to make a potion and increase my swordsmanship to take advantage of the attribute Dual Core.

In the case of magic, since I was studying basic books in my spare time, I believed that it would gradually improve through evolution, and necromancy was sufficient now that I had nickel.

As for the plan, it was pretty ideal.

‘It’s a matter of being able to hold on without getting caught until then. It would be fine if it wasn’t for damn Charon.’

Come to think of it, it wasn’t just Karon that was the problem.

Inside this academy, there were villains other than Charon.

Representatively, there were other black magicians other than Charon, believers of the Zefar Church, and one madwoman hiding.

In the case of the black magician, there was a high probability that he was related to Charon.

The Zefar cultists and the madwoman were not immediately worried, but in the case of the other warlocks, they were worried that they would run into each other.

‘Even that warlock has a student like me under his command. Maybe three?’

For reference, having as many as three students as subordinates was his failure.

Shortly after the game starts, his tail is stepped on thanks to the students he puts under him.

After that, his identity was revealed before Adrias did, and he was attacked by people.

It was a story in which the player, who had not grown up over the game time, fought with the help of the people around him, but eventually lost him.

As I walked out of the classroom and thought, I arrived at the lab, which was more familiar than the dormitory.

I immediately filled out the visitor list and rental list, and headed to the lab in the innermost part of the research building.

[Evolving… … .]

[Remaining time: 3 minutes 43 seconds]

This is perfect timing.

I watched the time dwindle, trying to temper my excitement at the soon-to-be-seen results.

[Remaining time: 00 seconds]

[Adrias Cromwell: The potion-making buff series has evolved.] [

The talent ‘Potion-making buff series (Supernatural)’ has evolved into the ‘Potion-making buff series (Skilled)’.] “

Okay. ”

Finally, I am out of the ordinary too.

Even if it’s potion making that doesn’t help much with magic itself, I feel like I’ve peeked at the possibility.

The fact that this worked means that other talents can become geniuses at any time.

“As a commemoration of becoming a genius, today will definitely succeed.”

Just as the evolution was over, the body aches disappeared.

My condition was at its peak, so I felt like something would happen today.

I immediately took out the materials I had brought and went into the experiment.

* * *

[Regeneration potion (lower) produced.]

[Recovery potion (lower) produced.]

The growth of talent was amazing.

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting it because talent wasn’t something I could see, but it far exceeded my expectations.

‘Honestly, I never imagined that I would make it right away… … .’

Talent was a sensation itself that could not be expressed in words.

It was a talent that only went from being a genius to a genius, but when I went into the experiment with the materials in my hand, my head displayed calculations and senses like a computer running.

“I’m at this level, but what the hell is Lucia and Diene… … .”

Lucia, as well as Diene, had a talent with the modifier ‘genius’.

As for the type of talent, Dunjae, Beomjae, Sujae, Gifted, and Genius, I couldn’t even imagine what kind of monsters those two were now.

‘Well, that’s why Lucia gets a perfect score even if she’s lazy.’

According to the setting, Diene was a person who even put in effort.

In the game, there was a limit to growth because it was a piece of graphics, but I suddenly wondered how strong the characters who live and breathe by direct judgment would become.

Maybe even stronger than when I was raised… … .

Anyway, now is the time to celebrate with the potion.

In fact, recovery and regeneration potions already existed in this world.

However, the modifier attached to the back was ‘lowest’, and there were only things with side effects.

What I made was a ‘lower’ potion that had the same efficacy but no side effects.

“Intermediate or advanced is not possible at my level.”

As my talent evolved, I felt it more clearly.

Before, I vaguely expected that it would work, but now I was able to clearly recognize that I couldn’t make it.

Intermediate regeneration potions alone contain over 20 different ingredients, so I had no idea how long it would take to find the mixing ratio.

For now, I have no choice but to be satisfied with the lower level.

While I was successful, I continued to make potions as if they were produced in a factory.

Even if you use one a day, you need 365 in a year.

This was one each, so if there were 3 types of potions, I had to multiply them by 3.

In addition, unlike other potions, recovery potions are helpful in recovering from fatigue, so the more they are, the better.

‘Old Man Bahat, let’s eat well!’

It wasn’t my money, so I didn’t hesitate to use the material.

It was truly an optimal condition and environment.

I didn’t know that I would succeed so quickly, so I made potions one after another from the ingredients I bought in bulk for the experiment.

I went out in the middle and even skipped eating and immersed myself in manufacturing for 4 hours.

“Time is always an issue.”

While I was making it for a while, an alarm went off inside the lab. It was a departure alarm.

It was time to leave before I knew it, so I put up with my regrets and sorted it out.

Still, I felt much more at ease because I made 10 regeneration and recovery potions each.

‘Even if I don’t eat, I’m full.’

I let out a bad laugh and looked at the potion I had in my backpack.

Even though I hadn’t really eaten, I felt full while looking at the potions.

Now is the real start.

The first step of infinite power training has finally been taken.
