Necro Master

Devon's Purpose

* * *

As soon as the reward was given, the loyalty immediately moved to the inn. With such a fierce hand, there was a spiky sword. It was the Black Death who was rewarded. It was taking the shape of an ordinary longsword. However, the overall color was black. Starting with the handle, everything was black.

[Black Death: A sorceress crafted by a sorcerer with deep knowledge of disease. Gives the enemy a disease-related condition condition when hit. However, it is not recommended to wear it at all because it continues to cause illness or related symptoms to the wearer.]

You hold the Black Death in your hands and look at the items. However, the condition condition condition condition started to be inflicted on the loyalty. This happened because I had the Black Death in my hands. You're lucky it didn't happen right away.

[An abnormal condition has occurred ‘body ache’.]

[‘Body fat’ lasts for 5 minutes.]

It was a good thing I didn't get sick right away, but I didn't feel good. At the same time, I felt a little frustrated because I had to feel the strength in my body.

‘… you want me to use this? ’

It's hard to feel the energy of a typical body. Even though it was a level body, it was not easy to endure. The grim feeling and feeling of muscle weakness dominated my whole body. It didn't end there.

[Shortly, more bad symptoms or new illnesses will occur.]

[We recommend that you take your hands off the weapon.]

As soon as I heard that, I put down the Black Death that was holding the loyalty. The condition condition condition was not a disease, but a simple symptom. But at this rate, I didn't know what would happen if I got sick.

‘This is going to be a little hard to write. ’

Constantly imparts disease-related conditions to the wearer as well as the enemy. It was a weapon I did not want to use, even if the loyalty had a life drain.

The energy of your body does not dissipate, however, even after you put down your weapon. Rather, the fever was getting worse and even the headaches began to occur. The loyalty looks at the Black Death lying on the ground, waiting for the end of the "body ache."

‘It won't be bad for skeletons to use. ’

The undead wouldn't care if they were sick. So when the system won the Colosseum, it said it would give us the Black Death weapon.

Loyalty points to the Black Death.

“Xiaoling, you can use this. ”

Then Xiaoling drops her old weapon and picks up the Black Death.

[Shaolin's weapon will be replaced from Bastard Sword to Black Death.]

* * *

Perhaps the challengers' mission and rewards were different. The system has given them missions and rewards, considering their own circumstances. However, the second mission of loyalty was a bit difficult.

Out of the energy of the body, the faithfulness takes a break and examines the next mission.

[1. Win the Colosseum]

[Reward: Black Death] [Completed.]

[2. One Name Skeleton Past Experience]

[Reward: Skill of the target skeleton is increased by 100% (the percentage of Skill you have will not disappear, but will continue to accumulate in the next stage).]

[3. Complete the second mission to unlock]

It was an unusual mission, no matter how much I saw it.

‘Experiencing the Skeleton's past...' ’

What kind of skeleton's past will I experience? There were four skeletons with loyalty today.

Daphne, Marek, Raleigh, Shaolin.

I didn't know whose past I wanted to experience. However, it wasn't long before I realized what skeleton's past I needed to experience. It is because the system's voice came straight to me and told me.

Would you like to experience the past of [?]

[If you accept, I will immediately change the flow of consciousness for you.]

It was a system that didn't ask about the other skeletons, only about Daphne.

‘Daphne's past.... ’

[Just be careful, your body will be exposed indefinitely while experiencing Daphne's past.]

I was a little nervous about being exposed safely. But it didn't matter. The skeletons must be guarding the perimeter.

“Do I just have to experience the past, by the way? ”

Then it must have been an easy mission. It was a tremendous advantage if I could only experience one in the past and gain 100% proficiency.

But it wasn't just the experience of the past.

[You will go to a certain time in Daphne's past.]

[We need to go there and solve a problem he couldn't solve.]

[If the skill is not solved, the mission will fail.]

I knew it.

No easy task could have been given. It was not just an experience of the past, but a solution to the problem. Loyalty suddenly saw the image of Devon.

“Must have something to do with why you became the Undead. ”

Daphne slams her teeth as if she had no idea.

Crap. Crap. Shut up.

I can't believe I have to go back to his past and solve his problems. Of course, even if you actually solve the problem, it would not really be solved. Being in the past means that time has already passed. However, the intent of the system could not be understood by mere human loyalty.

‘If you ask me to, I have to do it. ’

I lay in bed with faithfulness that I had no intention of going on or going on a second mission. It is clear that if the flow of consciousness changes, it will not stand well. The system bites again as the loyalty lay on the bed.

Would you like to experience the past of [?]

The system's question gives you a nod and opens your mouth.

“Yes."

At the same time, the ritual of loyalty was drawn somewhere.

* * *

The moon was floating high in the sky. Around it lies a dark darkness. The light in the clear night sky indicates that the current time is late at night or dawn. It means that if it is a non-nocturnal creature, it is the time to sleep.

However, the town under the sky was unable to enter the peaceful slumber. The town in the mountains is suffering from a huge fire.

Glug-ug-ug-ug!

Every building in the village was on fire. Are they made of wood? It burns so well. The inhabitants of the village were in two large groups. They were divided into those who turned their backs to extinguish the fire and those who sat in their seats devastated.

They were divided into two groups, but they had something in common. It was that they never understood why this was happening to them.

“W-why is this fire...! ”

“Nu, someone help me! The children inside...! ”

“We have to put out the fire! Bring me water from the well! ”

The current body of loyalty was like looking down from heaven in the state of the soul. Such a fierce vision revealed an unusual movement at the entrance of the village. There was a herd of them.

The number was approximately 30 people or less. Their outfit was like that of an ordinary soldier. A basic piece of armor made of leather, with a shortsword and a round shield. However, unlike the situation in the urgent town, their mood was very calm. You evacuate the villagers, but they're not even bothered. Unrealistic heterogeneity touched the feel of loyalty.

‘Did they set the town on fire? ’

I suddenly wondered. And it soon came to light that it wasn't just a guess. It was they who set the town on fire.

One of them opened his mouth. Even though I was far away, I could hear their voices in my ears.

“Go into your own villages and start working. Kill every last one of them. ”

Then one of the men who received the order asked. His voice was slightly trembling. His voice seemed to indicate that he wasn't very old.

“Are you sure you want to kill all the villagers? Even the children...? ”

A colleague next to his servant's question, who looks like a boy soldier, speaks with a fist.

“Teflon the Wet. Where are you going with this? ”

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Phew.

The fist baptism continues. Devon is beaten, but he doesn't bow, wondering.

The person who gave the order in their appearance stopped them. It was time for Devon to just fall to the ground and be kicked.

“Enough.”

He looks at Daphne's face and says,

“It is the Lord's command. ”

But that was it. There was no further explanation. I concluded all conversations with one word: the Lord's command.

“Enough with the small talk and spread out. ”

Then the man who was beating Daphne spits and leaves.

“Phew. It's more of an orphan thing. It's gonna be tight. ”

Starting with him, the soldiers begin to leave their positions one by one. In the end, all that remained was Devon, who did not understand the man who gave the order. The man who looks like a commander glances at Devon for a moment and says,

“Go. Don't bother. ”

According to him, Daphne moves as if there's nothing she can do. Then he made his way to the village. Loyalty was watching the whole thing from the air.

"That boy soldier must be Daphne. But what the hell is going on? ’

Depron's position was roughly the same as the ground among the soldiers. Did Daphne not know that if she had just asked the same question, she would be beaten like this? Probably not. Nevertheless, if he asked the question, there must have been a reason. And the reason for that was not long ago.

* * *

It was the bakery in the burning town where Depron moved his feet. There, a young woman sprinkled water on a blazing fire. Approximately four years ago, she lost her husband and became widowed. She welcomed Daphne when she saw him, but said in an urgent tone.

“Daphne? Can you help me out here? As you can see, there's a fire here... ”

But Daphne didn't answer. I just put a shortcode on her abdomen.

Phew!

She opens her mouth in disbelief as the blade enters her abdomen.

“W-why...? ”

There was only a look on her face that was really embarrassing. It was said that Depron did not know he was going to attack himself. Loyalty became aware of Devon's heart when he defeated her. It's because he heard the words in his heart in the ears of loyalty.

[… I'm sorry, Aunt Michelin. The Lord said everyone here made a pact with the Evil Black Wizard...]

At the same time, Daphne's past comes flooding in. This was a village that helped him when he was an orphan who had nowhere else to go. Daphne became a lord's soldier to repay the villagers. I want to protect the town from the dangers of the outside world.

However, the problem was not external enemies. The lord who ruled this area was the problem. The lord wanted to make a fortune. So I created a Black Wizard that does not exist. He tried to raise his position by executing the conspiracy with the Black Wizard.

The world here was a place of extreme denial of dark magic. So the rumor that the Black Wizard has been defeated has increased my position enough.

However, it was Daphne who knew better than anyone that there was no such thing as the Black Wizard. The villagers conspired with the Black Wizard? It wasn't funny. I grew up in this town, so I couldn't tell.

Devon's agonizing feelings were conveyed in a loyal heart. Loyalty was able to feel that one side of the heart was approaching without knowing it. Especially with Daphne in the know, it was so hard for her to move around like this.

‘He was the one who had this pain. ’

For Daphne, they were like the parents who raised themselves. But Daphne had to slaughter them. It was impossible to fathom how painful the heart was.

But there was nothing that Daphne could do. It was all about justifying his actions. You only have to do what you're told. His identity was the soldier. Whatever he asked, he was the one who had to do it.

So, starting with the bakery lady, Daphne started wandering around. Devon's expression is dazed, as if he was possessed. I was out of my mind like a screw loose.

Suddenly, screams echoed throughout the town.

“Shhh! Shhh, help me! ”

“Why are the soldiers here...! ”

“But, Daphne...? Did you come to save us...? ”

On the way, some residents found Daphne and asked her for help. But Daphne also took the lives of those who sought her help. There are no exceptions. Some of the villagers are strong men, but they are no match for soldiers armed with swords and shields.

How long has it been? After a short while, Abigail's situation became clear.

When Daphne regained consciousness, the town's flames were almost extinguished. You hear no more screaming in the streets. It's because everyone in town is dead. The soldiers who finished all the work gathered one by one.

Daphne knelt on her knees in the futility of everything. His grip on the blade was filled with the blood of the villagers. Then Daphne realizes what she did. He later realized that what he had done was a terrible thing.

What am I going to do...?]

Is that why? Daphne can't hold on to her rational strings anymore. I lost my mind. He realized what he had done and went mad. He was a soldier, but only a boy soldier. It was difficult to keep my mind straight because I had to go through this at that young age.

Devon, who had lost his mind, immediately stood up. Then, after work, you charge towards the returning soldiers. The soldiers make no sense as Devon lunges into the bubble.

“Is this crazy? ”

“I think he's lost his mind. ”

“You said he used to live here. ”

But that's as far as it goes. Devon's instinctive movements are no match for them. Rather, Devon had to die because of what the commander of the soldiers said.

“Kill him, too. ”

The words end with many blades embedded in Teflon's body.

Phew!

Puck!

Puebook!

Puck! Puck! Puff! Puff!

That's how it ends. Devon's body falls flat.

* * *

It's been 100 years since Daphne fell asleep. The restless soul continued to build up on the spot. And I woke up crying out loud. The Dark Energy accumulates and finally becomes the Undead.

However, neither the target to be saved nor the target to be avenged had already disappeared. The place that decorated Daphne's last place was just full of trees. It's been a long time since people have lived in a remote place.

That's all Daphne had to say.

At the same time, the fierce vision returned for the first time. However, his gaze had changed. It's possessed by Devon's body. The situation was before Daphne had yet to set foot in the village. By the time loyalty became aware of his situation, the system had been informed.

[Daphne is a soldier belonging to a territory of a kingdom that has been destroyed in history.]

[He wants to return the faults and save the villagers.]

[Escape at least 20 villagers.]

[Evacuate people to a certain point to be considered an escape.]

[Currently living villagers: 50]

[If Daphne dies or the number of residents that must be evacuated is not met, the mission will fail.]

[So, let's get started.]

[Good luck.]
