Necro Master

Marvas

* * *

He was a startled butcher by the overwhelming number of undead, but his surprise was brief. The Butcher was also just a follower of the Devil with degraded intelligence. After a short time, I remembered a joyful smile on his face. A large number of undead watch over you, and it seems fine. Rather, he shouted when he saw the fidelity in front of him.

“Meat! Fresh meat! ”

Then I rushed straight to the cholera. His mouth was drooling, and the ground echoed whenever his heavy body moved.

Bang, bang! Kuang!

But they weren't undead enough to watch him charge. Especially the skeleton knights closest to Loneliness set out first to stop the Butcher.

[< Skeleton Knight1 > moves to block the Butcher.]

[< Skeleton Knight2 > attacks Claymore at the side of the Butcher.]

[This….]

There doesn't seem to be any need for other infantry or peasant skeletons. So loyalty stopped foot soldiers and peasants from moving.

“You should have gone a long time ago. You guys just stay put. ”

He was the strongest slayer among the Devil's followers, but the skeleton knights alone were enough to take on him. The Pokémon can handle this without the help of other Skeletons. No matter how butchered I was, I couldn't do my best in front of the numerous Skeleton Knights.

It was not a lie. Because the Butcher really didn't come any closer. The screams of the skeleton knights rushing from all over made me barely able to endure. Just now, the fierce one rushed towards me, and his feet were tied. Unless he showed a difference in his overwhelming skills, it would be difficult for him to escape.

[< Skeleton Knight10 > smashed the Butcher's ankle!]

[The Butcher struggles to get to the center of gravity!]

[< Skeleton Knight 9 > smashes the Butcher's head!]

[The Butcher has been out of his mind for a while!]

[This….]

A butcher whose hands and feet are getting dizzy with the successive attacks of the Skeleton Knights. Maybe that's why he decided to use his last card. When skeletons interrupted what they were trying to do, they used their skills. It was a skill that could kill a challenger in a single blow.

“Khhh! This is annoying! I'm gonna eat you!”

At the same time as the beast, the butcher's fat belly splits vertically.

Then a strange object protrudes from between the cracked ships. It was a tongue as thick as an adult man's forearm, as long as a whip. Of course, the tongue was not as long as a whip. However, it is close enough to reach the target, which is just around the corner. And that disgusting tongue was crushed by the butcher's third skeleton knight.

[‘Butcher' uses Predatory Skill on.]

Unfortunately, the Butcher's skill did not succeed. Literally because his skill was a skill that could kill a ‘living’ challenger in one blow. The frighteningly protruding tongue licks the Skeleton Knight's Bone and tastes it, returning to the butcher's belly as if he didn't want to eat.

[< Skeleton Knight3 > does not possess a predatory skill because it does not consist of any meat.]

[‘Butcher’ 's Predatory Skill failed.]

The butcher who failed to use the skill. Did he not know his skills would fail? You've been running wild. You're probably pissed.

“Khhh! Khhh! I'm annoyed!”

The angry Butcher swings his fist around. Then you attack the surrounding area at random. But they weren't the skeleton knights he was going to attack. If it were peasants or foot soldiers, they might have been blindly attacked. However, the Skeleton Knights avoided the aimless swinging of their fists. The ground is the only target the Butcher has succeeded in attacking. He makes fun of his feet with his heavy body, and all he cares about is the ground.

Bang, bang!

After all, it was almost impossible for the Butcher to continue his rampage even when he tried to take his last stand. He was holding out with an outstanding pair of cuffs, but he had reached his limit. As time went by, the butcher grew weary, and quickly fell to his knees.

[Strike the Butcher's Neck with this Claymore!]

[The Butcher is struggling to breathe and wants to settle down.]

It takes less than 30 seconds for the Butcher to be defeated by the Skeleton Knights. No, to be honest, it was 30 seconds. Clearly, it wasn't 20 seconds. From the moment he approached loyalty, his fate had been sealed. After a while, Claymore, the Skeleton Knights, who had been beaten and beaten without rest, finally knelt on his knees. He knelt down and dug a depression.

Kuang!

Unlike the rest of the devil's followers, he suffered an agonizingly sensitive reaction.

“Khh! Khh! Khh! My breath...! I... I'm getting rested...! ”

It was pathetic not to be the boss monster on the stage. But what can I do? I didn't intend to hunt so hard to keep up with Yew.

He opens his mouth, gazing at the strangled butcher holding his neck.

“Farewell. ”

* * *

The first Skeleton Knight was the one who finished the exhausted Butcher.

[< Skeleton Knight1 > cuts off the Butcher's supply.]

With him, Claymore slashes the butcher's throat.

Screaming.

At the same time, the system comes to light.

[The Butcher has been executed.]

The butcher's head, separated from his neck, rolls to the ground.

Degur.

As I watched the scene, the loyalty opened my mouth.

“Is it over?”

However, loyalty clung to the chin with one hand. I had to. Because something was wrong. The strangeness came from a very simple reason. Whether or not to give Karma when killing an enemy. That's what it was.

Why don't you give me Karma? ’

It was really strange. The Butcher is dead. But you won't give me Karma. Apparently the Butcher was dead and his body was on fire.

Glug glug.

But what happened was over. Even the system remained silent. But after a long silence. I heard the system's voice again. However, the content was not what faithfulness wanted.

[Temporary hard mode will be enabled for the challenger 'Duplex'.]

"Hard mode"? ’

And then the voice of the incoming system contained very creepy content.

[If you die on the current stage, your soul disappears.]

That meant that he was really going to die. No, it was worse than dying. It meant destroying the soul itself.

‘Why on earth...? ’

Loyalty began with the rest of the devil's followers and slaughtered every last one of them. So there was no longer any business here. But why would the system suddenly say that? However, there was no time to ask for a friendly explanation. This is because the subsequent system's voice suggested that unusual situations would occur.

[Skill usage limit will be lifted.]

[All skills held by the challenger 'Lee Chong-ryul’ have been unsealed.]

I couldn't find any more red dots on the minimap. That means there are no more enemies here. So why did you lift the skill limit? Soon, loyalty was able to understand why.

‘No way... a new one...? ’

The prediction was accurate.

[‘??? ’felt the butcher's death.]

[Angry at the Butcher's Death ‘??? Three seconds later, we're here.]

[Considering the level of the challenger 'Lee Chong-ryeol’ ‘??? Instead of', send 98% downgraded copies to this region.]

You didn't even tell me your name. '?? I just called him’. However, I didn't want to make a problem with the name. How strong did he even consider the level of loyalty? with a 98% reduction in combat power. Besides, that wasn't the end.

[‘??? 'is limited in all active skills.]

[‘??? All passive skills of 'are sealed.]

[‘??? Disable the faction attribute for ".]

[‘??? Remove the power of ".]

[‘??? Paralyzes' rationality to prevent strategic action.]

[‘??? ’of…….]

The system was constraining him from appearing. The system's voice passed too quickly to hear and understand all of the contents. In a certain way, it was a very favorable situation for loyalty. But if you think the opposite.

‘It means that a very powerful one is coming. ’

But I wasn't ready to think any more.

‘Damn it. It's hard to summon a skeleton if you don't give it three seconds. ’

Here, the skeleton that loyalty refers to the number of previous summons such as Devon. We couldn't summon any more skeletons right away, even if we didn't know which enemies were coming. Even a very strongly presumed enemy was about to appear. If I used my skill now, I could easily do nothing. After using a skill, I became defenseless for some time, so it sounded natural.

‘Still, I am glad that there are skeletons who have joined in advance. ’

I did. 200 skeletons I never dreamed of using my summoning skills were still with me. Loyalty trusted these guys.

‘And I'm glad I put my life drain up in advance. ’

If I hadn't put it up in advance, I would have been in real trouble. You rank your skills in advance, so you can use them even at a distance. Unlike other skills, life drains have no side effects. You can suck the life out of your enemies without getting too close.

After three seconds, cracks began to appear in the space in front of the eye, where nothing had existed. The space where the cracks began to occur was about one meter above the butcher's death.

Blah.

I couldn't call it a simple fracture. It was literally a crack in space itself, so it was hard to express. However, I liked to get rid of the idea of evaluating it. It is because the crack is soon broken.

Kwajang Chang!

With the sound of the glass breaking, a small hole was drilled into the cracked space. And beyond the little hole began to pour out enormously hot heat.

‘Ugh... ’

The heat caused the ambient temperature to become cloudy in an instant. The background of the current stage was night, and the feeling of cold had completely disappeared due to the heat generated by the hole. Rather, I was left alone in the hot desert where the sun was setting. If loyalty wasn't a level challenger, it would have been a bust.

Of course, not when I was paying attention to heat. The thought of heat had to be postponed. Suddenly, a creepy finger pops out of the hole created by the crack.

‘Is that...? ’

Finger comes halfway out of the crack in the little hole. Then he grabs the edge of the opening as if trying to break it.

Tuck.

Again, it was clear that the hand was trying to enlarge the tiny hole. It's because he started empowering his grip and took more and more of the space he had taken. The space with the tiny hole is simply shattered by his grip.

Whoo-hoo!

Because of this, the small hole soon turned into an enormous hole. As the gap was made so that the person could easily pass through, "it" smeared the red color in between came out rubbing his body.

The 'it’ that came out of the space had a dark red horn on its height that seemed to be satisfactory. The overall appearance was similar to that of a human, but the thorns and elongated nails all over his body showed that he was an obvious monster. That doesn't mean he's a monster.

It's just that it's more scary than a monster.

He was just a demon.

[A plague of evil, Marvas, who created followers and destroyed the castle.]]

[Due to the appearance of the Devil ‘Marvas’, the portal to the next region will disappear.]

[Defeat ‘Marvas’.]

[That way you can survive.]

And so began a battle that was almost impossible to give up.

[Well, good luck.]
