Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits Chapter 88

Episode 88. Evolution and Suggestion

“Hasn’t a girl with short pink hair passed by here by any chance?”

“huh? pink hair? I thought you were going to the carriage station a while ago?”

“thank you.”

As soon as Adrias heard the news of Lucia, he was following her.

I didn’t know why it happened, but I had to meet and talk with Lucia to find out.

“ha.”

Hot breath leaked out as he ran.

The side effects of the evolution of black magic were getting worse, and the body aches and headaches reached their peak. But he couldn’t give up on Lucia.

Adrias, who was running towards the carriage station, was able to spot Lucia boarding the carriage at the carriage station in the distance.

“Lucia!”

Seeing the wagon depart as it is, Adrias caught on to the passing wagon and rode it.

“Please follow me behind that carriage.”

Fortunately, I was able to catch up in time.

Adrias’ mind was complicated as he was following Lucia’s wagon and suffering from a fever.

‘What kind of behavior became the butterfly effect? It’s not like Lucia is dropping out, it’s the first time that all playables have dropped out.’

Perhaps because of Adrias’ urging, the carriage increased its speed and was gradually catching up with the opponent’s carriage. The opponent must have noticed that there was a wagon following them, and their movements were strange, but they gradually slowed down and faced us.

“what? Why are you following me?”

The coachman of the opposing carriage shouted as they ran side by side.

Adrias then opened the carriage window and called Lucia.

“Lucia! Lucia Everlast!”

Then, as if the voice had reached them, the window on the other side also opened and Lucia appeared.

“senior? Why are you here?”

“Stop the carriage first!”

It was difficult to have a conversation with the sound of the carriage running.

Lucia bit her lip, nodded, and stopped the carriage.

When the carriage finally stopped, Adrias and Lucia got out of their respective carriages.

“Why are you here, old man?”

“I will say it. What is it all of a sudden? Why did you drop out?”

To Adrias’s question, Lucia didn’t answer and just stared at the ground.

Seeing that, Adrias sighed and grabbed Lucia’s arm.

“Let’s go back. It’s not too late.”

“Thank you for caring. But I’m not going back. It’s already too late.”

She spoke and pointed in one direction.

Then, a middle-aged man with long white hair was walking by, carrying a long spear on his shoulder.

“what? Is it a gift event? Why are you even here?”

“Why are you here?”

Adrias and Salem looked at each other in bewilderment.

“You’re cheap anyway. Am I the one you would call you?”

“Salem. So why is Salem here?”

When Salem’s name came out, the coachmen who had been around until then widened their eyes. At first, I wondered if I had heard it wrong, but this time, because he appeared without changing his appearance, the coachmen who recognized his impression tried to run away in a hurry.

“Where are you going? huh?”

Salem, who disappeared for a moment and then appeared, blocked the coachman’s way.

And then it was ‘eaten’ in an instant.

“ah.”

Lucia exclaimed in disbelief.

On the contrary, Adrias shook his head and sighed.

In the first place, Salem Yedidia was a person close to the wicked.

He has a strong tendency to act on his own, but killing a couple of people before he gets into trouble is no big deal.

Salem made the two coachmen disappear without a trace and spoke casually.

“so. How long have you been talking?”

“Why are you here?”

“okay! Why are you here?”

“I’m here to pick up Lucia. Could Lucia drop out have anything to do with Salem?”

“Looking at you not knowing that, it seems that you just followed me. okay. Lucia Everlast has decided to become my disciple from now on.”

It was the worst.

Although Salem was kind to Adrias, he was definitely a villain belonging to the black magician.

Being his disciple meant that he could no longer come out in the sun.

‘No. There is only one exception.’

If I become equal to or stronger than Salem, I might be able to betray him and come out in the sun.

There was already such a precedent.

But even putting all that aside, I couldn’t wait to see Lucia become Salem’s disciple. Salem’s magic was basically based on transmutation of the human body. I couldn’t let Lucia learn those magics that belong to the rather vicious axis of black magic.

Aside from the fact that it was black magic, during the process, you could feel tremendous physical and mental pain and your heart would collapse.

“Lucia. Think again. Salem is a warlock.”

“haha. Some say it like it’s not.”

Salem grinned beside him, but Lucia didn’t seem to understand.

As the headache worsened, Adrias tried to ignore Salem’s meddling and spoke again.

“It will be a chased body. I can’t see my family comfortably, and I can’t wander around outdoors. Do you want to live that kind of life?”

“yes. I want to live a life like that.”

From Lucia’s answer, Adrias was able to infer why Lucia made this choice.

‘I took Salem’s hand for treatment.’

Adrias paused for a moment, then slowly gathered his thoughts and spoke again.

“Lucia. i actually knew that you are sick.”

“yes? How does the senior… … .”

“I think I know why you want to follow Salem. But trust me. I’ll be sure to make your cure. Just give me two months.”

“Did you cheat while you knew it all this time?”

Lucia’s reaction was unusual.

Adrias was speechless, frozen at her unexpected reaction.

“Did you know that I was sick and act like that? I’m dying, but I’m watching it from the side so casually… … .”

A strange flow of mana flowed from Lucia, whose eyes were reddened.

Uncontrollable emotions were expressed as mana.

“Lucia. That’s not it. I’ve been… … .”

“I have nothing more to say. Don’t hold on.”

Lucia barely calmed down her mana and started walking towards Salem.

Embarrassed, Adrias reached out to her, but fell to one knee with a tremendous chill.

‘Side effects… … .’

Seeing Adrias like that, Salem asked.

“what. where are you sick?”

When Adrias said that she was sick, Lucia’s head suddenly turned.

A look of worry that she couldn’t hide was reflected on her face.

“Salem. It’s not possible. I won’t let you take Lucia.”

“What is he saying now. Why are you arguing over the story we decided on?”

“Lucia. I can never take you away. I will not allow it.”

Fever and headache caused the words to spill out without thinking.

Lucia Everlast is one of the keys to saving the world. I was desperate because I couldn’t let such a key get contaminated in front of my eyes.

No, it wasn’t just that. Personally, he couldn’t give up on Lucia.

He couldn’t let go of Lucia, who had already settled in his heart.

“Lucia. please. Give me one last chance.”

Adrias’s appeal, which seemed to be in bad shape, showed sorrow.

Even though Lucia felt betrayed, she couldn’t ignore his cry.

Lucia, biting her lip, thought about it before approaching Adrias.

“I have a lot of heat.”

When I crouched down to meet him at eye level and touched his forehead, I could see Adrias’ hot condition like a ball of fire. When I thought that he had been forced to pursue me in this state, my heart felt sad.

And in that look, I had no choice but to surrender in the end.

When Lucia turns her head and tries to tell Salem she can’t catch up, Salem strikes first.

“I don’t think I’ll say nonsense about not being able to go now.”

“ah… … .”

Lucia was speechless and looked at him.

Salem was not a hogu.

“Lucia Everlast. don’t warn me If you do not follow me, I will kill Adrias Cromwell right here. I’m not kidding. Wherever you go, if you want to check it out.”

With a bloody warning, life poured out and Adrias and Lucia’s bodies stiffened.

I couldn’t move as if I was standing in front of a huge snake, as if living itself had been typified.

Adrias barely escaped the bondage by activating his body with mana and hid Lucia behind him.

There was no chance of winning against Salem.

But even so, Lucia couldn’t be sent down a path that could obviously be broken.

For now, I can only hope for Salem’s mercy.

“Salem. sorry. Instead, I will make up for the time Salem wasted in other ways.”

“compensation? Hey Adrias. Are you climbing endlessly because I treat you so well?”

Salem aimed the spear.

His mana gathering at the tip of the spear was unusual.

“The reward is your neck. this bastard.”

The ‘foul vicious snake’ trembled and then spread out in dozens of branches and pierced Adrias. Adrias immediately drew his sword and stopped dozens of snakes from gnashing their teeth.

visor! Chaejaejaejaejaejaejae!

Each snake’s head was imbued with mighty power.

At the same time as Adrias blocked it with her sword, Lucia spread a protective shield, but it was useless.

Adrias sweated as if he were dealing with dozens of excellent spearmen at the same time.

Fuck! hooked!

In the end, the attacks that could not be blocked began to enter the body.

The attacks of the snakes, strong enough to pierce even rocks, lightly pierced Adrias’s body wrapped in mana.

“stop!”

Lucia shouted and stepped forward.

“I will follow you. So, please save my senior.”

“okay. Don’t overwhelm me and come quickly. I have no desire to kill Adrias for nothing.”

Salem smirked at Lucia’s declaration of surrender.

As he removed the spear, the heads of the serpents stuck in Adrias’ body were pulled out.

Blood gushed out and Adrias staggered, but he managed to stomp Galaksur into the ground and hold himself up.

Seeing that, Lucia tried to approach her again, but Salem warned her.

“It’s over for you to act as you please. Lucia Everlast. Don’t be like a child.”

Lucia, who hesitated at Salem’s warning, stepped back with a pitiful look.

So Lucia headed for Salem, but still couldn’t stop looking back as if her eyes were not falling.

“Adrias. I’ll just let it go this time, but next time if you act like that, I’ll kill you no matter how much I like you.”

After that, Salem walked back with Lucia in the lead.

Adrias, who had no choice but to watch Lucia leave, managed to pull Galaksur out of the ground and stood up.

couldn’t keep

Futile feelings filled Adrias’ brain with a headache.

‘no. Not yet.’

There must have been something to change this situation.

The knowledge gained through numerous gameplay experiences will surely interest Salem.

At that time, the phrase was reflected in Adrias’s retina.

[Adrias Cromwell: The Dark Magician Series has evolved.]

[The talent ‘Dark Magician Spirit Series (Supreme)’ has evolved to ‘Black Magic (Supreme).]

Kkudeudeuk.

Salem, who was walking, suddenly stopped when he felt something grabbing his foot.

When he turned his gaze to the floor, he saw a dark shadow grabbing his ankle.

“wait.”

My head cleared and the chills went away.

Adrias Cromwell said, using the shadow magic he stole from Kyler.

“Salem Yedidiah. I offer you a deal.”
