Necromancer's Evolutionary Traits Chapter 404

[ Episode 404. Crisis in the mountains]

I cleaned up all the Chimeras and returned to the Huxiang family’s mansion. The streets were full of people and everyone was chanting Mushid and Babak.

“Long live the Huxiang family!”

“Long live Musid Husham! Long live Burbak Hushang!”

It was a scene of madness outside that could be heard even from inside the mansion.

“sorry. It seems like I stole all of Adrias’s balls…….”

“I don’t care.”

What am I going to do with a ball in a desert like this?

In the first place, he didn’t organize the chimeras hoping for something.

“Even if it’s something you want…”

Mousid came out with a low profile, perhaps because he was uneasy with my attitude, but rather than a reward, he asked if he knew anything.

“Do you know anything about those chimeras?”

“You mean monsters? I don’t really know anything…….”

It seemed that he misunderstood the question, asking about the identity of the Chimera. Seeing him blurring the end of his speech, I felt the need for a more specific question.

“Do you not know when or where it appeared?”

“ah! If that’s the case, I’ve heard from my tribesmen!”

Just in time, a bug came out and said.

“About six hours east of the city there is a huge sand rock. Personnel who witnessed it said it climbed from the ground near the boulder.”

“Has anyone been around?”

“It is said that there were none other than our tribesmen.”

I thought it was related to the emperor, but wasn’t it together? Then the emperor seemed likely to be where Evan was.

‘Maybe he went to check the traces of gluttony left in Jakata.’

should i go back

For now, I have to wait for Evan to come, but I feel a bit impatient.

Hurry up and get rid of the obstacle of being the emperor and find the arrogant……

Kungkung!

There was a knock on the parlor door and a voice came from outside.

“What?”

“The chieftain has arrived!”

“person?”

“It is said that it is Adrias-sama’s person.”

“Come on, take me!”

Mouchid replied with an almost spinal cord reflex.

anyway you’re my man Who do you think came?

“Oh oh? Noah!”

Soon the door opened and the two entered. And towards them, Luna sprinted with a vicious snake in her hand.

“Ivy Noah.”

These are people you never thought of.

“haha! welcome. Mr. Adrias, we will step aside for a moment.”

“yes. thank you.”

Looking at the Hushangs who had left their seats on their own, he lowered his head slightly, then saw the Claire sisters approaching.

“It’s been a while since you two.”

“What are you talking about, I saw it a while ago.”

Noah grumbled, then sighed and sat down in a nearby seat. Because I came to see Nebro’s past, I forgot the last time I saw and broke up with Cromwell.

“Whoa.”

As soon as Ivy came in, she started smoking. It’s really been a while since Ivy. But I didn’t know you would come to see me with Noah.

“It’s been a while, Ivy. I never thought you would come with Noah.”

“Oh, it’s been a while.”

Still feeling cool, she threw the cigarette she had smoked several times on the floor and extinguished it with her foot.

“You don’t know that I was working for Cromwell?”

“Is Ivy under me?”

“Not under you, Cromwell.”

That’s what it means. I’ve never heard of it. When?

“I lost my job and got a job with the help of my younger brother.”

“Welcome.”

Ivy is always welcome. It takes a little while to hate warlocks…

‘You must have known, right?’

Looking at Luna, she didn’t show anything, so it seemed like she already knew everything.

“I’ll give you the information first.”

After Ivy and I finished talking, Noah opened his mouth. I wondered why he had come, and he seemed to have come all the way here to deliver information.

“It looks like there was an uproar here too, but now Chimeras are going wild all over the continent. The scale is beyond imagination.”

“Across the continent?”

Doesn’t this only happen in Shaiya?

At the moment when his eyes were slightly frowned at the unexpected scale, Noah continued.

“It also appeared near Cromwell.”

“Are you all right?”

“I must have come because I am safe, right?”

As Noah said, his face hardened.

“The important thing is this behind the scenes.”

“Is there anything more important?”

“uh. We are collecting information by operating our organization as much as possible, but the movements of the Chimeras are unusual.”

“How specifically?”

“All the marching directions are toward our territory.”

There was definitely something about this…

No matter how much you think about it, you can’t help but think that it was intentional that they were aiming for Cromwell and flocking from all sides.

“There are about 200,000 of them.”

“200,000…!”

Luna, who was next to her, put her finger on her face with a surprised expression. Luna, it would take 100 years to count all 200,000 with her small hands.

“You are crazy.”

“So my back hurts. That’s why I came to you right away as soon as I found out.”

200,000 chimera troops…….

I was confident that I would win in the end if I fought to the limit, but from my point of view, the real threat did not seem to have emerged yet.

“I’m trying to find out who did it, but the only thing I can guess is the empire. To be exact, the Rodelian family.”

“I think so.”

“What did you know?”

What I was worried about was the Empire itself rather than the 200,000 Chimera army. If I, as a necromancer, squeezed in a simple amount, I could eventually overcome it, but superhumans were different.

If the chimera belonged to the emperor, it would have been possible for superhumans under the emperor’s orders to attack Cromwell.

“Please keep an eye on the dynamics of the empire. I would like to ask you to focus on superhumans in particular.”

“Why is the imperial family aiming for Cromwell so far?”

Seeing Noah questioning me as if interrogating me, I naturally thought of original sin.

“The emperor wants something from me… Ah.”

As I was talking, there was a fact that suddenly came to my mind.

The original sin was on me, but it was clear that the emperor was unaware of it. That’s why they’re targeting Cromwell, not me.

“I must go back.”

Capturing the emperor was important, but protecting Cromwell was more important.

“The important stuff? what is that?”

“The thing the emperor had been aiming for since long ago was in the family. I have it now.”

“Is that why you’re doing this?”

I don’t have an excessive feeling, but I fully understood. Because the emperor knew original sin as a kind of key and was thinking absurdly.

‘I guess he’s acting as strong as he knows the importance of original sin.’

There was only a blind desire to trample and take away without any romance.

“Me and Luna will go back to Cromwell first. The two of you, please come with Evan. He will probably come here soon.”

“okay.”

“Ah, on the way, please bring the godfather and Maximin together. Both of you are nearby or will be here soon to finish your business.”

He stood up from his seat and mumbled. As long as he was openly targeting Cromwell using a chimera, there was no law against using superhumans, so he became impatient.

“I checked.”

“Be careful, Adrias.”

Noah nodded to me and Ivy patted my shoulder and said.

Soon Luna got up after me and we went outside.

“Ah, is the story over? I will speak to the tribal chief.”

“no. We have to go back right now, so let’s go. Please take care of just the two of us.”

“yes? yes. I will tell the tribal chief.”

When I said that I was leaving suddenly, the tribal chief’s subordinate who was guarding the door looked embarrassed, but soon saw me off with a salute motion unique to a desert tribe.

“It’s urgent, it’s urgent!”

Luna walked ahead, swinging her short legs. I wanted to watch him a little more because he seemed cute and cheering me on, but right now, as she said, my heart was in a hurry.

“I will ride the Luna Krivmacher.”

“oh! good!”

If it was Nebro, I would have used space movement magic quickly, but it was impossible for me. Even if my magic skills improved, it wasn’t that I became better at what I was good at, so I couldn’t do things I couldn’t do.

– Crow, wow, wow!

“shut up.”

In an instant, Luna was placed on the summoned Kriebmacher’s back, followed by Luna.

“Let’s go to Cromwell.”

-…….

Kriebmacher, who looked a bit pouty, spread his huge wings and flew up.

“It’s a dragon!”

“It’s the dragon that guarded the black scorpion!”

I felt the already noisy streets become noisy due to the sudden appearance of Kriebmacher.

“Adrias!”

Musid heard the news and came out belatedly and heard the sound of shouting.

“thanked! Please come back anytime! Adrias is the eternal benefactor of the Huxiang family, or the Black Scorpion!”

The distance grew so quickly that the last words sounded almost faint.

“It’s black magic.”

With a serious expression on her face, Diene Alven examined the body of the Chimera lying in the clearing. It was a sample that Isabelle had brought as an example.

“Chimeras aren’t necessarily created with black magic, but this is for sure.”

“It’s not just black magic…This is pretty complicated, isn’t it? How did you mass-produce something like this?”

Receiving Diene’s words, Lucia murmured. It was a question that could arise because they had already heard the confusion that had occurred in various parts of the continent through their ears.

“Each mara is of a fairly high level, and I can’t believe that there are over 10,000 units like this.”

“Umm……”

Amy, who had been listening to their conversation, touched her lips with a troubled face. Then, after annihilating the chimeras alone, he came back and said to Isabelle, who was drinking tea.

“It’s hard to believe, but the news is that chimeras from all over the world are marching in the direction of our territory. The estimated number is a whopping 200,000…….”

“Don’t worry too much.”

Isabelle smiled at Amy, looking like she hadn’t fought a battle at all.

“Numbers are meaningless in front of me. In front of not only me, but also strong people who have surpassed a certain level, it is meaningless even if the opponent is an army of 1 million.”

Everyone’s mouths fell shut at Isabel’s arrogant words. However, in reality, I had no choice but to believe that it was Isabel, who had been single-handedly subjugating a large army of chimeras that numbered close to several thousand.

“What we have to worry about is the intent of the perpetrators.”

“ah!”

Everyone nodded their heads in realization at Isabelle’s heart-piercing words.

“You are right. A chimera is the product of a wizard. There must be someone’s intention that such guys are aiming for this place in groups.”

“The intelligence organization believes that the Royal Family of Rodlenn is the most influential…”

Amy thought of Adrias while she was talking. I already heard him to some extent, but the emperor of the empire and the Cromwell family had already crossed an irreversible river.

“I will contact my father first. As long as I am here, my father will not be able to ignore this place.”

At Diene’s words, Amy bowed in gratitude.

“Thank you for caring me.”

“no. Compared to the help I received from Adrias, the fact that I can’t do something on my own is just unfortunate.”

“Thank you again, though.”

“I’ll go get in touch right away.”

Diene went straight to get in touch, but stopped when she saw someone hurriedly approaching.

“The lord’s deputy.”

“What happen?”

Maria, Amy’s secretary, said in the calmest voice possible, catching her breath.

“The Empire is on the move.”

“yes?”

“This is information that the retreating troops of the Empire are targeting Cromwell. It is news that even those who were defeated in Morheim are gathering.”

“…….”

Everyone froze at the unexpected news. However, that was not the end of the information Maria delivered.

“Twelve Aura Masters, roughly twenty Warlocks. The number of superhumans alone is over thirty.”

“…Are superhumans also participating in the war?”

“I’m not sure, but based on the movements I’ve identified, it seems likely.”

The complexion of those gathered in the seat turned pale at the sound of bad news piling up.

“200,000 chimeras, plus the imperial troops and over thirty superhumans.”

“This makes it clear that the Chimera belongs to the imperial family.”

Lucia laughed and said. It was an expression of amazement at the incredible power difference.

“The lord’s deputy.”

“Please speak.”

“I wonder if you would consider taking refuge in Morhaime.”
