Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits - Chapter 196

[ Episode 196. Talent realization]

“This is fun.”

These were the first words Salem uttered upon seeing Noah.

When he ran into Noah, he put on an interesting expression, as if he noticed something right away.

“Do you know as soon as you see it?”

“Who do you think I am?”

It’s arrogant, but it was something that Salem could have said enough.

Because he was a Continental 10 and a warlock class warlock.

“Is this the person who will heal me?”

Noah was just calmly accepting the situation.

Seeing her like that, Salem smiled evilly.

“Hehe. I brought you something very interesting. As expected, Adrias, you are a good guy.”

“Noah is not a test subject. Please treat me.”

“Well then. Don’t worry.”

For some reason, Salem waved his hand, saying something that I couldn’t believe.

After coming out of his order to celebrate, I soon headed back to the main building.

Coincidentally, the main building was distracted by the news of the Fall of the Valley of Weeping that had just been heard, but Vivian and Ivy were together like a sack of barley.

“We need to contact Florence Merchant! And the top of Everlast! Didn’t you hear from the Everlast Merchant?”

“A message will come from the imperial palace soon! We must prepare in advance!”

“How’s the stock of war materials going? Are you ready as planned?”

A scene resembling a battlefield was unfolding.

Numerous employees moved in an orderly manner, with Amy and her secretary Maria leading the way.

“Adrias.”

Vivian, who happened to find me, called.

As I approached them, Amy looked at me and said,

“Brother’s situation is serious.”

“I guess so.”

“I’m sure it’s not. Now, this isn’t an expedition to the north, it’s an all-out war. The word expedition was dropped and it literally became a war.”

She bit her nails and spoke again.

“The Empire will start conscription, not recruitment.”

“Amy. Follow me for a second.”

I waved to her and went into the empty drawing room.

Amy, who followed me, couldn’t hide her anxiety, like someone suffering from a nervous breakdown.

“Now look. think carefully. Amy, do you think the Empire will lose?”

“no.”

“Then why are you so anxious because you are so patriotic?”

“……no.”

“It is the current emperor who caused the downfall of our family. It’s rather good when the empire’s power is weakened. Even if the people are innocent, we can’t care about that.”

I looked straight into her eyes.

“Do what you can. Keep only what you can keep. It doesn’t matter what your surroundings are like. I only care about your people.”

“…….”

“Rather, think of it as an opportunity and use it tenaciously. As much as the profit you make, you will save people in the end. If it weren’t for us, they might be the ones who would have gone to the battlefield naked.”

“ha.”

Amy sighed and regained her composure.

Then he nodded.

“You’ve changed a lot, bro.”

“I am figuring out the subject.”

“is it? It’s not like that, but I said it like a person who has no blood or tears.”

“I am not an idealist. I know my abilities and I just know the best I can. From that point of view, you might be more helpful than me in this war.”

There is nothing better to raise the tide than a war you already know will happen.

Although it is a war against the northern barbarians, there is nothing to eat even if you win, but surely someone will lose and someone will benefit.

Among them, he had to swallow the domain of the family that had suffered damage.

To withstand the storms that will come, we must prepare a solid wall in advance.

“If you take this opportunity to grow and start trading with the elves right away, it will probably grow to the point where you can’t touch it before anyone else can check it. If that happens, getting Cromwell back will be solved in an instant.”

“Cromwell…”

Amy nodded.

I tapped her on the shoulder, believing that she would be able to do it well.

Besides, there are monsters by her side now, so there’s no need to worry.

“Is your brother okay? Are you being dragged away or something like that?”

“The Empire won’t lose to barbarians. I was a bit careless this time and the fortress was breached, but you know how much power the empire has.”

“Don’t turn around. How is your brother?”

“I don’t know yet either.”

He shrugged and tousled her hair.

“Focus on your work now.”

After saying that, I came out again.

The outside was still hectic.

And Vivian and Ivy stood there blankly, like abandoned animals.

“Vivian Ivy. I’m sorry for having guests. I will guide you.”

Amy will be busy with work at the guild, so I decided to take the two of them.

They said they were taking them, but to be honest, there wasn’t anything worth seeing.

As I awkwardly led the two of them around the mansion, an unexpected person appeared to save me.

“Here you are.”

It was a maxim citizen in disguise.

I was disguised with Isabel’s blood magic, but I was unfamiliar with blood magic and the structure and method were just amazing.

“Are you a guest?”

“yes. I just met Isabelle anyway. Where have you been?”

“okay.”

He looked at me and the two standing behind me and gestured out of the blue.

“Follow us all together.”

Then, as I shamelessly walked somewhere, Vivian and Ivy looked at me looking at him like that, wanting an explanation.

Isabelle isn’t very famous, so I don’t know how to describe Maximin.

“My master’s……acquaintance.”

“Who is your master? You didn’t answer last time.”

When Ivy asked, I scratched my head and vaguely evaded it.

“I have nothing to do, so let’s go.”

I don’t know why Maximin asked me to follow him, but he must have a meaning.

There was nothing wrong with hearing that he wasn’t going to harm us.

And the place I arrived at was a gymnasium that I did not know.

Although it was new, the facilities were pretty good.

“Last time in Rastilia, you almost died.”

When we arrived, Maximin suddenly spoke up.

Having said something to make Vivian and Ivy conscious, he continued.

“I will try to stand by your side whenever possible. But when you die, it will mean nothing.”

“Is Adrias dead?”

muttered Vivian.

“I was worried. I’ve been wandering for too long already. Now that Isabelle is up, I want to settle down.”

Maximin pulled out the sword hanging from his back.

This man is only in disguise, but it seems that he has no intention of hiding his identity.

As if Ivy had already noticed something strange, she looked closely at Maximin’s sword.

“For that, I want you to be strong. As long as you don’t die anywhere.”

he flicked his sword.

Then, in an instant, he swung his sword.

And that swordsmanship was none other than ‘flawless’.

‘As expected, Maximin seems to be a genius-level talent. I can’t believe I can just copy it after seeing it.’

If it’s natural, it would be natural.

Although they weren’t perfectly the same, they knew exactly the shape and intention of the swordsmanship.

“This is the sword you suddenly started using, not the swordsmanship you learned from your old man.”

“you’re right.”

“You might think this is nagging, but I’ll say it again. In the end, whether it is a treasured sword or a tax-saving sword, they are all just tools. The important thing is yourself who wields the sword.”

“I think tools are also important.”

In fact, the reason why craftsmen don’t blame tools is because craftsmen are already using top-notch tools.

If you were going to separate yourself from your tools in the first place, you should have become a martial artist who wields fists instead of swords.

“I do not deny what you said. I don’t use an ordinary sword either.”

He said, holding up his ‘Treacherous Executioner’.

“But I’ve never met a stronger swordsman than me, so I’m talking about how I became stronger. These days, there are more guys who just want to borrow the power of tools, so I gave advice.”

“You can’t…”

Ivy’s eyes widened.

She opened her mouth and swallowed in surprise.

“Maximin Cronel?”

“Think of it this way. You make the tools yourself. The most suitable and powerful tool for you.”

Maximin, ignoring Ivy’s words, swung his sword again.

It’s definitely ‘flawless’, but the feeling is different.

It was cutting the space itself, not the texture.

“Ha…….”

It didn’t actually contain space because it didn’t carry mana, but my swordsmanship genius was able to read the intent from the sword he wielded.

And it wasn’t just me who noticed.

“Are you really Maximin Cronell?!”

“The space is split.”

It was the impression of the two seeing Maximin’s sword.

“You must have found your own way now, so I have nothing else to tell you. It just gives you direction.”

After those words, Maximin changed the sword in various ways and swung it again.

It didn’t have the same impact as the first time, but it was enough inspiration.

“You have to know how to pick and use the tools. Let me emphasize again that in the end, you are the one using it.”

After that, he walked out of the gymnasium as if nothing had happened.

Ivy seemed to want to grab him with an itchy expression, but couldn’t muster up the courage.

Her choice was mine after all.

“Is that person Maximin Cronell?”

“no.”

“What is not! With his swordsmanship and his unique short sword, if that is not Maximin Cronell, then who is Maximin?”

“Why is Maximin Cronell in my house?”

I was just ignorant.

I’m not, but can I?

Rather than that, I imitated the sword that Maximin had just swung.

It was surprisingly easy to follow.

‘Is this so…’

The space split.

It was a very minor level and meaningless, but it seemed like it would be a terrible weapon if you fully mastered it.

“Wow…”

Vivian blankly looked at the sword I was wielding.

And Ivy frowned.

“Are you doing it all at once?”

“yes? A prototype is a swordsmanship that I originally knew.”

Although it has been transformed, it is not wrong to say that the original form is ‘flawless’.

“Are you kidding me? I have eyes too. The first sword technique he wielded a moment ago must have been yours, right?”

“That’s right.”

“The second one I swung was transformed.”

“Exactly.”

Ivy rubbed her forehead and made an expression of pain in her head.

“But you did it all at once, didn’t you?”

“It was easy to follow because I knew the prototype.”

“Do not joke. If it were easy, no one would suffer. Aren’t you aware of what you’ve done?”

What the hell am I doing to get so hot?

I just scratched my head and swung my sword again.

“The swordsmanship I originally knew……”

He wielded flawlessness, but changed his intention by accepting Maximin’s advice.

From cutting the texture to cutting the space…

No, I just tore it up because I wasn’t very delicate. The sound

of

the air ripping was heard, and the place where the sword had passed trembled in an instant.

“It’s that easy.”

for a moment.

I was overlooking it because it was so obvious, but my swordsmanship talent was a genius.

Do you feel it is natural to be a genius? Is this really difficult?

“Crazy.”

In the end, Ivy, who was watching, said something.

It seemed like a difficult task.

“I wondered how a wizard could be so good at swords, but he was a perfect fit for his nickname.”

And then he added a word.

“You monster.”

“I will take it as a compliment.”

I must have become a real genius.
