Necro Master

Leo the Skeleton King

* * *

After Ariel's death, the sacred cathedral collapses.

Cough!

Cough!

Guava light!

Of course, the troops summoned by Ariel also hid their appearance as if they were evaporating quickly.

Pa!

It disappears with the feeling of flashing light.

Seeing the fortress crumbling like that, the system came to light. It's because the skill level that remained was filled all at once, whether it was because of killing Ariel.

[Xiaoling's proficiency has reached its limit.]

[Give Xiaoling new options.]

There were exactly three types of options. But is it because of Xiaoling's F grade? The types of options were poor.

[: The armor worn by Skeleton Knights is usually given.]

[Cut consecutively: Cut one cut twice in a row.]

[: Selecting this will give you the opportunity to become a future Knight Master. As a knight captain, you will have more strength than ever before.]

There was no need for armor. The bones of Lancer were applied in the first place, so they are just as defensive as they are. Continuous slashes were a bit tempting, but it was a bit difficult to choose while upgrading the skill rating.

"Hmm... Is the quality of the knight the best choice?" ’

There was no benefit at the moment, but if you think about the future, it seemed better to choose the quality of the article.

But then, when I thought the three options were all there was, the system informed me of new information.

[The original job of Xiaoling is very special.]

[reveals hidden options.]

Finally, the system showed an additional option.

[Sword Blade Path: once selected, the options related to Sword Blade will be forcibly selected each time the Skilled Rank is increased in the future.]

The way of the sword? ’

It turned out that Xiaoling was originally a swordsman. I was a skeleton knight when I died.

Thanks to this, I was worried about 'the quality of the knights’ and ‘the way of the sword.’ But loyalty didn't take long.

"A hidden option would be worth that much. ’

The determination of the heart said.

“Choose the path of the sword. ”

Then the system came to light.

[From now on, Skeleton Knight Xiaoling walks the path of the Swordsman.]

[The distinction from the disease is Knight, but the ability to move forward varies from standard to standard.]

[Xiaoling's Skill Rank has increased.]

[Current Xiaoling Skill: Class E]

Thus, Xiaoling's skill level rise was simple. However, what loyalty must endure is not yet finished. It's because of Ariel's remains that Xiaoling had defeated.

As Ariel is defeated, the members of the sacred hall hide themselves, but her body remains in front of the faithful.

[Do you want to collect the bones of Ariel the Angel of Punishment?]

I can even collect angel bones. Loyalty answered a question of a system I could never have imagined.

“Oh, of course. ”

At the same time, the system began to dismantle Ariel's corpse.

Da-da, da-da.

Ariel's body twists and turns. It was a sad sight, but I couldn't help it.

By the way, has it been about five seconds? After that time, the well-applied bones of Ariel are placed in front of the appetite.

However, unlike the bones that had previously been seen, a subtle light flowed from her bones.

[Angel Bones cannot be used like this.]

[Use Necromancer's ability to corrupt sacred bones.]

[Marek helps ruin bones.]

At the same time, a dark stream of air flows out of Marek's hands, beside the fidelity. The current wrapped around Ariel's bones.

The bone collapse was quick.

[Corrupted Ariel's bones.]

[To whom will ‘Corrupted Ariel's Bone’ be applied?]

[Corrupt Ariel's Bone: Based on the bones of angels, it has extremely strong resistance to attributes related to divinity. Of course, because it is a corrupt bone, it is also resistant to the attributes of darkness.]

Unlike Lancer's bones, there was no physical strength or feeling like it.

‘However, the contents related to the attributes were mainly made. ’

Then who should we apply it to?

I didn't have to worry about loyalty. Surprisingly, the system explained it kindly.

[Corrupt Ariel's Bone can best increase Trait Resistance when applied to ‘Marek’.]

[Do you want to apply to Marek?]

A loyal nod nods at the system's question.

‘If you say it like that, you don't have to apply it to other skeletons. ’

The system has been informed by the nod of loyalty.

["Corrupt Ariel's Bone" was applied to Marek.]

[Influenced by bone, Marek has become more resistant to attributes.]

It seemed like Marek's skill was related to the Dark Attribute and he recommended it.

After all, Marek's bones were replaced by Ariel's bones in an instant. Bones with a subtle light and a dark energy flowing through them were applied.

Thanks to this, Marek's appearance is no longer an ordinary skeleton.

But that wasn't all Ariel left. The wings of an angel whose corpse was dismantled. As it disappears, one feather remains.

[Learn Angel Ariel's Feather.]]

Could it have been something? The loyalty looks directly at Ariel's feathers in his hands.

What is this? ’

Ariel's feathers hide a mysterious function.

[Angel Ariel's Feather: Only 1 use to create a reverse portal connected to the Celestial Realm. When the portal is created, there are thousands of angels pouring out of it.]

An item that summons angels. Of course, it was only used once, but it was an unusual function.

‘Hmm... But do I really need to call the angels? ’

Even if I called, there was no explanation that I would become an ally.

‘If we use it incorrectly, we may be defeated by angels. ’

The angels who fought here were very limited in power. So it was not difficult to deal with, but it was hard to guess how powerful it would be if an angel with no constraints actually appeared.

‘Anyway, I should just keep this for now. ’

That's how I ended up with Ariel and won a lot of rewards.

Of course, there was still the Skeleton King's reward.

[Leo's camp, the King of Skeletons, has won.]

[I will return the surviving challengers to Leo's fortress.]

* * *

The vision of loyalty changed with the word "return."

“Oh my……. ”

The fortress of the Skeleton King was completely destroyed. He looked around at the year that was next to his loyalty and said,

“You've got to be kidding me. ”

Jeremy continued to tell them.

“Phew. I'm glad I won, though. ”

But there was something strange about it. As Jeremy listens, his sense of otherness creeps around him.

“Where are the other challengers? ”

With the victory, the surviving challengers should, of course, be gathered here. But here is Loyalty, Tidal Wave, and Jeremy. Only three. There was no one else.

“Looks like it's extinct except for us. ”

Just a moment later, Vincent appeared just before being smashed. He gave me an update so far.

[All troops and challengers are dead. Even if it's a little late, defeat was a sure thing, and you turned it around. Amazing.]

I did. If I had defeated Ariel a little later, this would have been a defeat. But it didn't matter. Because I won. Loyalty told Marek, who moved in with him.

“Marek, heal me. ”

Vincent was the target of the treatment.

[Use Death Healing on this Skeleton Knight Vincent.]

Vincent was also undead, so he was able to apply Death Healing. Thanks to this, Vincent's body was restored in an instant, having lost half his bone.

[Thank you.]

He continued to say a brief thank you.

[Then you have won, and I will reward you as promised.]

At the end of that, he built a portal.

Jiaying.

A fluttering black portal. He gestured to follow himself in there.

It was an awkward portal that I didn't want to enter, but the group, including loyalty, soon followed behind him.

* * *

A new environment emerges as you follow Vincent's created portal.

A dark world where light does not exist. All the plants around him were dry and there were no signs of living life.

Vincent, who inspired such a place, said.

[Welcome to your palace.]

The place where loyalty arrived was the garden of the royal palace. Is it because of the palace? A vast number of skeleton soldiers stood guard around you. I was amazed at the sight of the skeleton soldiers who were emitting such fierce eyes that they could hardly hide their level.

‘It's amazing.'

The level was high, but the number of skeletons wandering around was enormous. He deserved to be called the King of Skeletons.

Tidal Wave and Jeremiah were also captivated by Leo's palace. Vincent urged me.

[Come with me. Before you enter the Royal Hills, the king wants to see your face for a moment...]

But his voice could not continue. It was because a group of people were walking into the garden.

Dallac.

Dalgric. Dalgric.

Dalgric. Dalgric. Dalgric. Dalgric.

A rattling sound. It was the footsteps of skeletons walking at a constant speed. Loyalty looks at the sound. Then I could see. Leo, escorted by skeletons who look very strong.

Leo's appearance was usually slightly larger than the size of the skeletons. He was wearing a crown, and his entire armor was thick black. He opens his arms and welcomes loyalty and group members, who are not particularly armed.

[I couldn't wait, so I came in person. Greetings, challengers who lead the battlefield to victory.]

As Leo appears, Vincent kneels on one knee.

[Meet the Great King.]

Not only Vincent, the skeletons guarding the perimeter of the garden also kneel in homage.

[[[Meet the Great King.]]]

Leo nods roughly to the skeletons' greetings. Then he turned to the faithfulness.

[I have prepared a feast for you. I hope you'll accept my invitation.]

At the end of his talk, the system asks.

[Leo, king of the Skeletons, invites you to his supper for persecution, including you.]

[Accept invitation?]

[You can choose to lead the battle in the contested area as the leader.]

Why is the system asking me this?

‘Hmmm... Is there something special? ’

I didn't mean to say no. I feel it is not polite to refuse to invite people to a dinner, although the surroundings were a little scary.

‘It would be polite to respond... But you said dinner wouldn't lead to any weird food, right? ’

However, Loyalty looked at Tidal Wave and Jeremy once. They didn't say no.

“I don't care. ”

“I don't care. ”

The group's opinions are answered. I never imagined dining with the undead.

“Thank you for inviting me to your dinner. ”

The Skeleton King continued to say that his loyalty was satisfactory.

[I want to talk a lot, but I have to keep my promise first.]

Then he said to Vincent,

[Vincent. Lead them to their promised place.]

Vincent replies to the Skeleton King's orders.

[I will.]

At the same time, he gestured to keep up with Jeremy and Tidal Wave, including loyalty.

[Follow me. Choose your reward before it's too late. There is no time to delay attending His Majesty's banquet.]
