Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits - Chapter 209

[ Episode 209. Variables and Crisis]

The sparring with Honen was unexpectedly canceled.

Following Honen on the way to the gymnasium, a knight from the Marquis family we met called to us with an urgent voice.

“ah! Sir Cromwell! It just went well.”

“What are you doing?”

“Urgent news has arrived. I received a call from Borgien asking for support.”

in Borgijen?

It was a crisis that was clearly prevented safely.

Support should have arrived by now, so I thought there wouldn’t be a problem.

“If it’s Borghien, isn’t it the place where the undead ran rampant this time? I heard that you safely blocked it?”

Honen, who was with me, also asked in a puzzled voice.

Then, the article of the marquis immediately explained the situation.

“It is said that a large force invaded again this time. But this time, the news was that the warlock was revealing himself and the battlefield was confused.”

“Are you pushing too far?”

“The opposing warlock is a necromancer.”

The article replaced the explanation with that one word.

It was the warlocks who thought they were the last variable after blocking the two biggest crises, but they are openly rampaging.

Borgijen had Vivian.

Paradoxically, while all other playables are safe, non-playable Vivian is in the most danger.

‘It’s fortunate that I left the dragon soldier and nickel just in case you didn’t know.’

I asked the knight, thinking of bringing out my undead from hiding in the ground not too far from Borgien.

“How is the support going?”

“Probably some of our troops and all of the academy applicants.”

Honen clicked his tongue in regret at the knight’s words.

“Tsk. Dalian will have to be postponed until later.”

And then immediately turned around.

“I’m going to go pack my things.”

After Honen disappeared, the knight was still there, looking at me.

“Do you have anything more to say?”

“His Excellency the Marquis asked for his opinion on what Sir Cromwell would do and asked me to come.”

“Can I also participate in the application?”

“Actually, His Excellency the Marquis seems reluctant, but he told me to do so if he wants.”

“Then I will also participate.”

The knight put on a troubled expression at my immediate reply.

In fact, the words of the Marquis were like a pretense.

Saying that you don’t want to is the real intention, and saying that you want to participate is not really asking you to participate, it’s just a courtesy.

But I didn’t notice the marquis.

Because of the mana problem, he had canceled the summons of Krivmacher and Ludo, so he could not stand it because he was worried about Vivian in Borghien.

“That……reconsider your thoughts……”

“I think I should go again.”

I knew the Marquis would be angry, but it couldn’t take precedence over protecting my people.

If Vivian hadn’t been in Borghien, I would have been here in silence, but that doesn’t work.

“All right. Then, I will deliver the message to His Excellency immediately.”

“Where is the assembly point?”

“It is in front of the north gate of the inner castle.”

“All right.”

After the article disappeared, I immediately went back to my room and packed my things.

At the same time, he sent a signal to Nickel, who was vigorously swinging his sword in the underground space.

First of all, I had to find out how serious the situation was through Nickel on the way.

Dalgrak!

Nickel’s positive response was transmitted and I headed for the north gate.

**

“Tough. And many.”

In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was blocking Borgien by himself.

Layton, the third leader of the Sun Knights and an Aura Master, looked around with his entire body wrapped in wind.

Numerous undead swept away by his windsword were scattered and shattered.

“Sir Layton! An enemy Auror Master has appeared in the west!”

When someone hurriedly shouted, Layton immediately ran to the west gate using the wind.

Running at great speed, he happened to see a knight holding out against the Aura Master.

‘Did you say Vivian?’

I heard that he was an applicant from Rodlen Academy, but that level was absolutely not that of a student.

Even if it was only for a short time, holding onto the Aura Master was a great thing.

Whiik-

Kwaaaang————!

Layton, who soared high using the power of the wind, stuck to the giant’s Aura Master like a meteorite.

However, the opponent was formidable, and the wolf-shaped aura blocked the attack at once.

“Are you finally here? I was bored.”

“Shut up your stinky mouth.”

Layton shook his head coldly and rushed at the giant again with great speed.

A gust of wind raged, and while the battle between the superhumans was in progress, Vivian sighed as she pulled her body back safely.

However, she is in the middle of the castle wall where a fierce battle is taking place.

There was no luxury for her to rest.

Kwajik!

Vivian, who saved someone’s crisis that happened to be in sight, looked at the other person and reached out her hand to the fallen person.

“are you okay?”

“thank you. Thanks to you, I live.”

Unlike Vivian, Pione, whose face was exposed, expressed her gratitude.

She trembled and stood up, holding Vivian’s hand, straightening her sword.

“Are you okay?”

“yes.”

Actually, it wasn’t okay at all, but even if I said it wasn’t okay here, nothing would change.

Mana was already depleted and his stamina was showing the bottom.

The only war she had experienced was the flawless victory at Mayton, so she had a feeling of looking down on the war.

But on the second day of this extreme situation, she realized that she had been arrogant.

‘This is a real war……’

If Mayton was original, it could have been a similar or even worse situation.

Thinking that Adrias had prevented such a thing, Pione’s respect rose once more.

“That enemy is coming again!”

Enemies were ruthless.

The barbarians came in like a tide once, but they fell all at once, and the undead took their place.

It was a repetition of the format of barbarians who had taken enough rest and pushed in again when they thought they had dealt with all the undead like that.

‘I can’t win if I go on like this.’

Fione made her judgment calmly.

If you hold on like this, you will eventually be defeated due to the enemy’s wheel battle.

All Borgijen could do now was to hold out until another reinforcement came from other frontier territories.

“Wake.”

Vivian, who was next to me, spoke briefly and boldly.

Fione patted her cheek and nodded.

“sorry.”

“Don’t think of anything else. Eventually, if you stop it, the end will come.”

Vivian spoke honestly and destroyed the undead that stood in her way.

However, Fione wondered if the end really existed.

The next batters were already coming in from outside the walls.

“Huap!”

Aaaang——–!

Even Layton, who was in charge of quite a lot of troops alone, was caught by the enemy Auror Master, and the barbarians began to climb up the wall through the ladder.

“The barbarians have come up!”

“Push it down the wall and drop it!”

At least the savages had to deal with them.

Although the barbarians were superior to the undead in terms of strength and skill, the scary thing about the undead was that they had no pain or emotion.

Even if one arm flew off, the undead would attack with the other, and since they had no momentum or morale, they just looked straight ahead and attacked honestly.

The sight was nothing short of horror to a human being.

“Stop! Kuck!”

However, it was not easy to deal with the savages.

Unlike the savages who took enough rest thanks to the Undead, Borghien’s troops, who were moving their bodies without a moment’s rest, were forcibly moving their bodies with a sweet smell coming from their mouths.

“Hold on a little longer! Time for help to arrive soon!”

Magner, who suffered a serious eye injury, shouted with one eye closed.

Horan, who was swinging the sword together, did what he had to do silently, hardening his complexion at Magner’s words.

Horan already knew.

It was false that aid would arrive soon.

White lies just to cheer up the soldiers, even just a little bit.

“Doesn’t it appear again?”

Horan muttered after wiping the barbarian blood from his eyes.

In fact, he was expecting something different than the support coming from other territories.

Those are the legendary beings we saw during the last battle.

“Please, please, just one more time.”

Horan muttered sadly and stabbed a barbarian climbing up the ladder.

While everyone was having such a hard time, the top of the wall reached the brink of fall.

“Sir Magner! Not anymore! The number of troops is not intact, and above all, there are too many enemies on the walls!”

“Umm…”

Magner chewed his lips and swung his sword, finally making a decision.

“Blow the whistle. Retreat to the inner wall.”

“All right!”

Retreating to the inner wall meant giving up the people’s houses and shops that existed in the outer wall.

But survival came first.

Bouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu000000000

As soon as the whistle sounded, Borghien’s troops began to withdraw all at once.

There were many people who were killed or injured in the process, but it was an unavoidable choice.

“Everyone retreat to the inner wall! Sir Leighton! Please stop the enemies!”

It was natural for the troops to fall into the castle and the enemies would follow them.

Someone had to draw their attention and stop them, so Magner asked Layton, but he didn’t seem able to afford it because he was fighting the giant Aura Master.

“I’ll do it.”

At that time, Vivian, who had turned dark red in full body armor, stepped out.

Magner let out a pitiful sigh and nodded his head.

“Please… do it.”

It was so humiliating to have to ask such a student.

However, I felt relieved because I felt her outstanding skills during the war.

“Seniors. Are you sane? I’m going to die!”

However, Fione intervened between them.

“But Sir Magner must continue to command. Someone has to stop and that’s only me right now.”

“Still, you are an academy applicant! No, I’m not even a member of the Rodelian Empire in the first place! I didn’t come here to die, I came here to help…!”

At Phione’s confused words, Vivian reached out and stroked her hair.

“Pione.”

And slowly took off the helmet.

Her rust-colored hair dripped with sweat.

“If I die, take good care of Adrias.”

“Now what do you mean! Why are you dying!”

The two-day battlefield changed even Pione.

The comradeship that saved each other’s lives at the crossroads of life and death was so strong that Fione wanted to reverse Vivian’s choice.

“That’s Okay! Even now, as soon as possible, with me in the inner world…….”

“Sir Magner. Please take good care of Pioneardi.”

Vivian turned and walked toward her enemies.

She was expressionless, but Fione and Magner could feel the determination in her.

“Vivian Velocan!”

Phione shouted to the end, but soon the noise of the battle was swept away.

Magner forcibly grabbed Phione and carried her on one shoulder as he ran.

“Leave this!”

“sorry. I’ll apologize properly later.”

Magner was heartbroken to entrust such a dangerous mission to the mysterious woman, but the responsibility as a commander made him cool.

“I’ll pay the price for this sin properly later.”

While everyone was entering the inner sanctuary, Vivian blocked the road and greeted the enemies.

Awesome! three!

Sreuk –

The enemies collapsed in an instant with the swordsmanship that was like a ghost.

However, that too soon began to grow burdensome with the increasing number of enemies.

“Oops!”

thud!

The barbarian’s mace shattered his shoulder armor.

Vivian, whose stamina had reached its limit, eventually took off the broken armor.

“Hehe. You will not die gracefully.”

The barbarians surrounding Vivian began to surround her with sinister smiles.

However, Vivian still looked at the situation behind her with an expressionless face.

Fortunately, her mission was successful.

Everyone entered the inner wall and locked the door.

‘it’s okay.’

she smiled.

“Vivian!”

Pione, who was watching it from the top of the inner wall, finally shed tears.

Hearing that voice, Vivian slowly raised her sword and put it to her throat.

“You guys! Are you going to end your life!”

One of the barbarians hastily shouted.

And when Vivian, without hesitation, tried to cut her own throat.

Bubbubuck!

Someone suddenly appeared and cut down all the barbarians around.

“ah?”

Vivian looked blankly at the sight and muttered.

“Adrias?”
