Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits Chapter 50

Episode 50. Unexpected Incident

I was able to get to the beginning of the Krates Mountains without difficulty.

The problem seems to be starting now.

I let go of the horse and sent it to the last village I passed by, looking up at the mountain range so high that I couldn’t see the end.

‘It’s filthy high.’

There really was no end in sight.

I wondered if such a mountain could actually exist.

Its size was so large that it seemed gigantic even from Merteon, two days away.

‘I found it easily in the game… … .’

It seemed like it would take quite some time.

So I held my heart firmly and started climbing the mountain.

Even though it was only the beginning, the mountain road quickly started to get rough.

‘By the way, isn’t it too quiet?’

Originally, I thought it would be such a quiet place.

In fact, I was wondering because I couldn’t find a single monster on the way to the mountain range.

As the Krates Mountains are called the Devil’s Land, there are few human footsteps, so there are nests of all kinds of monsters and rare beasts, but I haven’t seen anything in two days.

‘It’s strange.’

The Krates Mountains were one of the demonic places to avoid because they were dirty because they would encounter monsters even if they wandered around a little.

Is reality different from games?

At that time, something strange hit my senses.

‘trap.’

It was a simple trap.

However, it is a trap that an ordinary person would have caught without even noticing.

What looked like a thin thread stood out around the ankle.

To be honest, I found it because I was not lowering my guard because it was the Krates Mountains.

But who installed it?

There’s no way people come and go in places like this, so it doesn’t look like they’re targeting people, but monsters or beasts… … .

‘Hunter?’

Are there hunters in the Krates Mountains?

There was no particular person that came to mind.

In the first place, the only person who lived in a place like this was the eccentric Deshurn.

So, did Deshurn install it?

I don’t know, but I decided not to scratch it and make a boil.

Carefully crossing the thread, I went deeper and deeper into the mountain.

* * *

A person was running away from something through a steep mountain.

The human figure looked like a mixture of a human and an animal, and it resembled a leopard.

Matahar, a Pyotribe, was exploring the Krates Mountains to find the cause of the recent disappearances.

As five people had already gone missing, the village headman, noticing the seriousness, selected several young people, and he was one of them.

However, shortly after receiving the mission from the village chief and exploring, the situation took a twist.

‘What the hell is the identity of those monsters! There were things like that around here?’

Monsters with the appearance of insects that appeared suddenly started attacking Matahar without even knowing the cause.

As a Pyroman tribe, they were victorious in battle, so they fought without fear, but soon had no choice but to retreat to the ever-increasing numbers.

Zurich -.

Kwajik!

Insects flying in the sky spit out acidic liquid, and the six-legged guys ran after Matahar with a terrible appearance.

And the biggest reason he thought he had to run away was a monster in the form of a beetle that walked on two legs, spreading its wings and flying leisurely.

“Kreung!”

No matter how hard I tried to get away, the speed of chasing was too fast.

They drove Matahar like a mole on a hunt, and he was half aware of it.

‘I can’t run away. If that’s the case, I’d rather!’

Matahar hurriedly turned and smashed the head of the bug that was chasing him with his sharp claws.

Kwagak!

Matahar, who had a bloody battle with the insects that came one after another, was more concerned about the safety of the village than his own death.

‘Are these guys the cause of the missing villagers?’

It was just grievous to die without being informed of this fact.

As a result of burning the body and dealing with the monsters, he was able to smash numerous enemies, but the strongest enemy, a beetle-type monster, was flying low and watching Matahar.

“Come on! Even if I die, I will make you my comrade in the underworld!”

Matahar let out a loud roar to bolster his courage and ran to the beetle.

However, the beetle flew at high speed with a sleek appearance that was not like a beetle and played with Matahar.

bang!

“Heuk!”

The speed of the beetle was not simply fast, but was accompanied by terrifying destructive power.

A beetle with a solid body used its speed to crash into the body, and there was a tremendous roar.

Contrary to his determination, Matahar flew through the air spattering blood in vain and fell to the ground.

‘It’s overwhelming.’

Above all, the presence of those wings became a wall that Matahar could not overcome.

“Damn it… … .”

Small insects that still remained gathered around the fallen Matahar.

Matahar, who was so shocked that he couldn’t even move a single hand, had no strength to resist.

A completely unexpected noise came to Matahar’s ears as he accepted death and closed his eyes.

Kwadeuk! Kwajik!

When I slowly opened my eyes, there was a masked man smashing insects around me.

‘What else is this guy?’

* * *

As a result of searching the Krates Mountains for three days, I was able to find the place where the giant I was aiming for was sleeping.

But along with that, a problem arose.

‘I was wondering why there are no beasts or monsters around.’

A village of different races could be found on the land including the place where the giant slept.

As a result of observing them from afar, their true identity is the Pyo-in-jok.

It seemed that he dried the seeds of monsters that existed around him to protect the village.

‘I remember that there was no village here in the game.’

In the game, it takes at least 12 years for the story to progress enough to come to the Krates Mountains, so it becomes a story that the village disappeared in the meantime.

‘That’s not a problem now.’

The treatment of heterogeneous races within the Empire was not good.

The biggest reason is the current emperor’s oppressive policy against heterogeneous tribes, which made the heterogeneous tribes within the empire hostile to humans.

‘That’s why I’m living in such a rough area so I don’t have to run into humans.’

Now, how do you go through that village and get to the place where the Hidden Peace is hidden… … .

There seemed to be no way to get in without being noticed.

There was no way for the different races, especially the beasts, because they had developed five senses.

By the time I was contemplating whether I had to give up and go to Deshurn, I confirmed that the atmosphere in the village was unusual.

There was a serious atmosphere as if something had happened, but I couldn’t tell what had happened just by checking from a distance.

I don’t know what it is, but I’ll have to step away from this.

It wasn’t an urgent problem to get by fighting the whole village, and as far as I knew, the village would disappear in a few years, so it didn’t matter if I came back then.

I was about to give up the Hidden Peace and go to where Deshurn was staying.

Kwakwang!

I heard the sound of fighting somewhere.

‘monster?’

Are monsters fighting over territory?

I’ll have to go back

However, such thoughts soon found traces of something and had no choice but to stop.

‘This… … .’

The remains of broken insects were scattered everywhere.

There are all kinds of monsters in the Krates Mountains, but I’ve seen monsters with this appearance in places other than the Krates Mountains.

‘Insect magician Lanox.’

It was a black magician belonging to the assembly.

After all, Lanox, who could be called a summoner, was famous for summoning bugs he raised himself.

In particular, some of the objects he specially bred were monsters equivalent to one Auror Master when combined in strength.

‘What the hell did you come to this demonic realm for?’

If it came from a meeting, it could have been something sinful.

If so, I can’t wait to see it.

I immediately summoned Nickel and Timur.

And after receiving the mask from Nickel, he changed his appearance.

But in case you don’t know, you should hide your face.

After that, Timur’s sense of smell was able to quickly discover the scene where the battle was taking place.

There, a Pyroman tribe was fighting insects, but their lives were in danger after being attacked by a monster in the form of a beetle that walked on two legs.

‘Looks like he already made that guy.’

Monsters in the form of beetles were particularly strong entities.

I don’t know how many I made, but it was a little dangerous to see one already wandering around.

Anyway, now that the situation has come to this, I’ll have to save those Pyo-humans first.

No matter how hostile it is to humans, it can’t be that way even to the savior of life.

First of all, nickel and Timur were put in so as not to cause misunderstanding.

And I started to clean up the ‘junk mobs’ that attacked the Pyo-humans.

Kwajik!

‘Is this how it feels?’

When the boundary between the heart and the danteon disappeared, mana was integrated into one, and the black sword spewed out of the sword, scattering dark energy.

The output felt stronger than before, and when I swung the sword, the insects that touched my sword began to shatter.

‘It feels a little more destructive.’

Nothing seemed bad.

Rather, I should take this opportunity to loosen up a little more.

The insects seemed to have confused the order due to my sudden intrusion, leaving me to break them and trying to get closer to the Pyo-in tribe.

I used mana detect to find the warlock while trying to stop them.

‘Have you just put down the order and are you somewhere else?’

I didn’t feel the energy.

Maybe that beetle is in command.

Soon after defeating most of the ‘miscellaneous’ and looking at the beetle from afar, for some reason, it began to retreat.

I hesitated for a while to see if I should pursue it, but I gave up the chase because I felt sorry for having saved the fallen Pyroman.

Anyway, the guy has the confidence to chase at any time.

First of all, I’ll try to use my hands to save this guy and enter the village.

“Who are you?”

As I approached, the Pyo-human asked with a wary look.

I took the potion out of my pocket and handed it to him.

“It is a recovery potion. Drink if you want to live.”

“Do you think I would believe that? Are you allied with those monsters?”

It’s annoying. I didn’t even bother to convince him.

In the end, I struck the opponent’s chin with the sheath and knocked him out.

Then, he force-fed the potion.

A hawk is medicine for a guy who doesn’t listen.

Is this the right word for this?

Anyway, after feeding him a set of 3 potions, I roughly carried him on my shoulder and walked in the direction of the Pyo-human village.

By the time I reached the village of the Pyromans, a group of vigilant Pyromans surrounded me.

“Human bastard! How are you here?”

“It’s Matahar! Put down Matahar right now!”

Standing in the middle of the babbling Pyohan tribe, I carefully set down the Pyotribe called Matahar.

It must have been time to wake up.

Finally, as I expected, Matahar awoke.

“Ugh. Kamru? Jokoham?”

Awakened, Matahar called the names of the Pyoin people in front of him with bewildered eyes.

Then, seeing me standing behind me, I was startled and fell over while trying to get up.

“Human bastard! What have you done to Matahar!”

Either Kamru or Jokoham shouted at me.

Since he was a Pyotribe, he raised a sharp and high voice, but it was difficult to hear.

In the meantime, Matahar slowly examined her body and then looked up at me with wide eyes.

“Did you save me?”

I nodded and Matahar waved his hand at the Pyotribes surrounding me.

“This person is the person who saved me. And more than that, I have something urgent to tell the village chief.”

At Matahar’s words, the Pan-humans made puzzled expressions.

However, the appearance of not lowering one’s vigilance seems to have suffered quite a bit from humans.

“I’ll bring the village chief first.”

Someone ran in the direction of the village and time passed in a tense atmosphere.

Of course, the tension was theirs, and I was watching the situation leisurely.

It was just annoying and I didn’t want to kill innocent people, but if I had to fight, I was confident that I could beat them.

It would be impossible if I was alone, but I had Nickel and Timur.

Soon after, the Pyoin tribe, who ran to the village, brought an old Pyoin, Hana.

“Are you the human who saved Matahar?”

I just nodded my head without answering.

Then, the village head asked Matahar to explain the situation.

Matahar briefly reported the situation he saw to the village chief.

“It’s an insect-type monster… … . And even the humans who suddenly appeared.”

It looks like he doubts me, but I really didn’t know.

“I was just looking for a place and I have nothing to do with them.”

“Which place? Where are you talking about in this demonic realm?”

“There is a place I want on a cliff in the corner of the village where you live. To be honest, I never imagined there would be a village.”

“Cliff?”

I nodded and pointed to Matahar.

“As you can see, I saved this guy. don’t ask for much Just let them go to that cliff and they will quietly disappear.”

“I’m sorry, but it seems difficult to bring outsiders into the village right now. As you can see, the monsters have suddenly appeared, and there are already 5 missing people in our village. We cannot take the risk of bringing in an outsider under these circumstances. I am very grateful for saving Matahar, but I hope you will consider my position as the village chief.”

“Then do this.”

I made a suggestion to the mayor.

“I will catch the owner of those monsters. Perhaps the disappearance is also the work of the warlock who commands those monsters, but I will solve it.”

It was Lanox he was trying to catch anyway.

It wouldn’t matter if you were condescending here.

“Really? In that case, I will not only bring you into the village, but also treat you as a benefactor of the village. Instead, please bring the warriors of our village with you.”

“Then let’s search right now.”
