Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits - Chapter 177
Episode 177. vs Hougen
The elves surrounding me were armed and looking at me with confused faces.
And between them, Hougen and Hoir could be seen.
“wait for a sec! That!”
“It’s Seir’s corpse!”
The excited elves aimed their bows as if they saw the Seir I was carrying on my shoulder.
“Are you all crazy? Are you planning to shoot an arrow at the world tree now?”
“Everyone calm down! Humans come down.”
While they were arguing among themselves, the stem of the world tree slowly lowered me to the ground.
It took me quite a while to deal with the gluttony pups, but I didn’t expect that they would come in droves in the meantime.
“The World Tree will take you… … . I guess you were right.”
Hoir murmured as he approached me.
Have you already heard the story from Hugen?
“Could you hand over Seir’s body?”
“Can I check for a moment before that?”
“check?”
“I want to see if there is any evidence that this person is a traitor.”
The elves, who were already excited by my words, burst into indignation.
“How dare you be a human subject!”
“Is it not enough to kill Seir-nim, to dishonor you!”
Hoir also hardened his complexion, as if he was not at ease.
“May I check it out? Of course, I will take steps so that you can watch too.”
“I will hand it over to you if you promise to check it right now. If I can’t do that, I’m in trouble.”
I couldn’t give up either.
After all, I am the benefactor of the elves.
The more I thought about such actions and reactions, the more I was offended, but first I wanted to prove my innocence in front of everyone.
‘Without proof… … Well, it doesn’t matter.’
At my suggestion, Hoir’s complexion darkened even more.
Maybe because he thought he was insulting the deceased?
Would he have reacted like that if he had known that Seir really wanted to destroy Rastilia?
“You are too cheeky.”
At that moment, Hougen, who was still, stepped out.
“I don’t know what the World Tree thinks of you, but the fact that you killed an elf doesn’t change.”
“Even if that elf is a traitor?”
“Yes.”
“So what?”
In the end, I couldn’t speak well either.
That Hougen bastard wanted me to turn his face into a bowl of jelly no matter what.
“A cheeky human bastard.”
“Don’t make personal attacks, so what? There shouldn’t be a purpose to catch the pod like this. Could it be that you are actually a traitor belonging to the scene?”
“Yeah man!”
“Are you angry that you tried to kill the World Tree but failed in the end? To put it bluntly, I am the benefactor who saved Rastilia. You guys don’t seem to realize it right now, but if I hadn’t come here after receiving an oracle, within a few years the World Tree would have died and Rastilia would have been destroyed.”
He deliberately did not say specifically that the World Tree had fallen.
Uncovering too much detail tends to arouse suspicion.
It wasn’t that I was wrong.
In the end, if I hadn’t intervened, it was an established fact that Rastilia would perish.
“As proof, the World Tree took me directly. and… … .”
As a trump card, I took out something I had kept in my chest.
“What is that?”
“Fruit? The fruit glows… … .”
I held up the fruit of the world tree and showed it.
The fruit, smaller than a fist, was small compared to the size of the World Tree, but it radiated magical energy.
“You can’t stand it, that’s… … !”
Hoir seemed to have noticed what this was.
“It is the fruit of the World Tree.”
“What!”
“I can’t… … .”
“Don’t lie! How could a human being get the fruit of the World Tree!”
An enthusiastic response.
Along with that, I also took out the leaf the World Tree gave me.
The twigs were cumbersome, so I put them in Nickel’s bag, but I kept these two in my pocket just in case.
“It is a gift that the world tree acknowledged me as a benefactor and gave me. Still can’t believe it? I am your savior, you ungrateful bastards.”
The surroundings are frozen.
Everyone was speechless and just stared at the leaves and fruits of the World Tree in my hand.
At that time, it felt like living somewhere.
Kang!
In an instant, he blocked Hougen’s sword.
“Ugh. Looks like a traitor right? Did you decide to reveal your identity?”
“They are too precious to be in human hands. If you return it quietly, I will spare your life.”
“Don’t fuck with me, you’re bald.”
To be honest, I’m confused as well.
Are you really from the Fugendo Sin?
Why do you think it comes out like this?
In the game, even if they weren’t colleagues, they would have been allies.
Is it just the elf’s stubbornness?
“Hugen! stop!”
Hoir could not bear to intervene and shouted.
But Hougen showed no signs of stopping.
“I will gladly accept the sin after the work is over. But no matter how you think about it, it is too dangerous for those things to fall into human hands.”
“Do not be ridiculous. The world tree gave it to me, so what are you judging?”
“If you really were our savior, you would gladly hand them over to us.”
“Now that I look at it, it was just crazy tight.”
I deliberately provoked, but saw an opportunity.
If this is what happened anyway, Hugen’s bastard will need to be beaten once to relieve his stomach.
Undead summoning is a one-time chance.
I had to use it properly, aiming for when the opponent was off guard.
After being caught once, it is no longer a hidden hand.
For him, I had to deal with him only with a sword.
‘I’m also curious.’
How long can I last against Hougen?
Hougen immediately used a secret technique to come back without any acknowledgment.
Along with the armor of leaves that wrapped around his body, his twin swords became splendid.
“Whoa.”
Concentration.
Swordsmanship genius was not simply about being able to wield a sword well.
A fraudulent ability that transforms everything from the physical to the mental to genius.
All my five senses were focused solely on the opponent’s sword.
Huung.
Quagmire—!
Hougen, who had approached me with murderous speed, then swung his twin swords with incredible speed.
His aura secret is a buff-type secret that transcends the basic spec itself.
It was a speed that the eyes could not follow.
but… … .
Kagak!
visor!
My talent surpassed even that.
‘see? No, I feel it.’
It wasn’t just swordsmanship.
With the help of gifted athletes and fighting talent, it was difficult, but it made it possible to barely follow Hougen’s movements.
And I have a transcendental swordsmanship.
‘Follow the grain!’
His swordsmanship talent led his body naturally.
Together with him, the aura from the tip of the sword swung as if exploding… … .
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
It tore apart along the opponent’s grain.
A swordsmanship that can cut through all the grains that exist in this world.
Dismissed!
“Hmm.”
The shoulder part of the leaves surrounding Hougen was broken.
And his new model hesitated.
“Adrias Cromwell. Were you also a warrior?”
Hugen seemed to say something, but I couldn’t hear it.
Now all my nerves are focused on the battle.
Besides, once started, this swordsmanship was difficult to stop.
I felt like I was being dragged around by the swordsmanship, but I couldn’t help it because my level wasn’t high right now.
Charleuk!
The Kaga Gaga River!
It worked well at first, but the attack that worked once did not work.
Hougen calmly started blocking all my attacks.
“It’s not ripe yet.”
Quaang!
Through the gap, Hougen’s kick pierced my abdomen.
“Cheuk.”
My head was spinning with the pain of my lungs shrinking.
Oxygen was scarce.
“Strong. He worked hard for a human being.”
Hougen, who had flown far away, approached me before I knew it, muttering and brandishing his twin swords.
Awesome!
Push!
My flesh was tearing at an unmanageable speed.
But there was something Hougen hadn’t thought of.
‘This much pain… … .’
It doesn’t even belong to the axis of pain.
Compared to the two years of wielding the sword in greater pain due to the penalty, it was bloody hemorrhage.
Everything is a paving stone to attract the opponent.
Wow.
A subspace opened next to Hougen.
When he noticed, the dragon’s snout had already protruded.
“Hehe.”
He let out a little villain-like laugh.
Shoot Kriebmacher.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The breath he had prepared in advance exploded, bursting with dense mana.
Even me, who was at close range, suffered damage, but that didn’t matter anyway.
‘You should know that you won’t be safe if you touch me.’
I am the mad dog in this area.
Wow!
Push Yi Profit.
Kriebmacher’s breath splashed and acidic fluid touched my body.
The flesh melted into it, but I didn’t care and got up for now.
“What the hell was that?”
“Elder Hugen!”
The cries of the elves lodged in my ears where I could hear tinnitus.
How was your opponent?
“Kuhm.”
I could see Hougen struggling to stand up in the distance.
isn’t it dead Well, that bastard, Biggie also plays a role in protecting the body.
But the look was pretty good.
The armor made of leaf-shaped auras had all but disappeared, and only one pair of swords remained in shape.
‘But this… … I think I lost.’
It’s a pity, but the dongguijinjin a while ago did a lot of damage to me too.
‘I lost, but I have undead.’
Krivmacher won’t be able to fully use his strength because he shot his breath, but the rest will suffice.
Under the premise that Hoir is watching.
‘It can’t be.’
Now, Hoir will come out soon.
I’ve been fighting and fighting like this.
“Fuck.”
but something is embarrassing
Guys like these dogs.
I certainly didn’t do it for the elves, but it was unfair.
If you live thanks to them, you should be grateful. Instead of grace, you are paying back with enemies.
“What do we do?”
“If what he said is true, he is our benefactor.”
“But what about Elder Hugen?”
“Shouldn’t we stop fighting for now?”
The fight happened so quickly that the elves hesitated because the accident couldn’t catch up.
Meanwhile, Hoir stood between me and Hougen.
“Stop both. There is absolutely no reason to fight each other.”
“You mean that bald head tried to kill me and I had to surrender my head? Didn’t you dry it right away?”
When I said it sarcastically, Hoir bowed down with a puzzled expression.
“It is my negligence. I really didn’t know that Hougen would do such a thing.”
“Is that true? Actually, didn’t you think that you should kill me and take the fruit?”
“I swear to Tapio, I never thought of that. What you received from the World Tree is yours. I will apologize on your behalf.”
… … I don’t like it a little bit, but should I accept reconciliation for now?
There was no point in fighting any longer.
The original purpose was also achieved.
‘Hugen’s son is handsome.’
I decided to give it a shot somehow, but it hit me right.
You should be satisfied with this.
“Whoever wants to end it.”
Then, a completely unexpected voice was heard.
“This is a human!”
“A human again?”
“How did you come?”
The owner of the voice that suddenly appeared was none other than Maximin Cronell.
He seemed to have come alone, and he was walking around with only a sword strapped to his back.
“Who are you?”
Hoir pulled out his sword with a wary expression.
“Put the sword in. before killing me.”
Towards Hoir, Maximin muttered with a languid expression.
“Maximin. How are you?”
“You came out to meet me because it was too late.”
He spoke bluntly, and soon smiled, which is rare.
“It was quite a fight.”
“Did you see everything?”
“okay.”
No, I’ll help you with that… … .
Still, when Maximin appeared, he couldn’t be more reassured.
“If you want to apologize, pay the price properly.”
Maximin looked at Hugen who was standing quietly this time and said.
“Maximin Cronell… … .”
“Stubborn elf. You are still the same. What are you going to do?”
“What will I pay for?”
You two knew each other.
Hoir didn’t seem to know, but had he ever met Hugen?
“hmm. Cut off one arm first.”
… … what?
Mr. Maximin?
“Let’s negotiate after that.”
