Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 405. Battle of Cromwell]

Numerous warhorses gathered in the vast plain. In the midst of the chaos, as if they were going to march at any moment, a person who seemed to be in charge of them was receiving a report.

“An attack order has been issued from the top, Sir Ross.”

“What about superhumans?”

“I think we will go together.”

Upon hearing the adjutant’s report, Marquis Ross nodded and gestured to the nearby chiefs.

“It’s a departure.”

“Go out! It’s a departure!”

As they headed for their respective units and signaled the march, Marquis Ross’s gaze turned towards the Cromwell estate.

“I never thought Adrias Cromwell was a warlock. I can see why you rebelled against the Empire.”

“Since this Chimera incident is also attributed to him, it seems that he prepared it quite a while ago.”

An official letter from the imperial palace.

It contained information that the instigator of this Chimera Incident was Adrias Cromwell, and that all rebel subjugation forces were directed to Cromwell.

The number of troops thus gathered was the largest ever, and more than 30 superhumans were mobilized.

“The command to refrain from colliding with the Chimera as much as possible and move is a bit difficult to understand.”

“Doesn’t that mean preserving the troops is a priority?”

“well.”

One thing I didn’t understand was the order from the upper level to avoid the Chimera as much as possible. It is said that all chimeras will stop functioning if only Cromwell is dealt with, but it would be a disaster if they were surrounded by chimeras while attacking Cromwell.

‘Isn’t it right to organize at least the things on the marching path?’

It was not just a military force, but a force that included over 30 superhumans. Throughout the history of the empire, there was no precedent for so many superhumans to unite.

Rumors had it that the imperial family had given away all of the direct imperial territories this time around. I tilted my head at the reward given out as if I hadn’t thought of the back, but since I wouldn’t offer a false price to superhumans, it was just a question of what the hell he was thinking.

“No matter how many Chimeras are, it’s a bit excessive power and compensation.”

“According to information, it seems that Chimera is still being produced somewhere. The initial estimated number of individuals was 200,000, but the current trend continues to increase to 250,000

.” There is a research result of the Rodelian Magic Tower that the function stops when the owner is gone.”

The empire’s subjugation forces began to move. Because it was to operate already prepared troops, they were able to reach Cromwell’s vicinity in no time.

-Keeek!

-That’s it!

The scenery they faced was Cromwell Castle, where they were struggling with chimeras. Unexpectedly, the movement lines with the Chimeras did not overlap, so they looked at it with doubts.

“what? Why are they fighting among themselves?”

“Isn’t it possible that they can’t control themselves properly?”

It was strange when you think about it.

I heard information that chimeras were gathering in Cromwell from all sides, but there was not a single chimera that overlapped with the subjugation army.

It felt as if someone had given an order to avoid it, but when I arrived, Cromwell was already engaged in a bloody battle with the chimeras.

“Sir Ross, Sir Duran has something to say…”

“Yes.”

Even while they were building their camp, the Chimeras didn’t pay any attention to the subjugation army. Marquis Ross and other leaders were not fools either, so they realized something was wrong.

“You’ve worked hard, Prince Ross.”

“Did you call, Mr. Duran?”

Since they were the same marquis, Ross, who had a difference in reputation and status from Duran, the Auror Master, bowed his head slightly.

“As you may have noticed, things are going strangely.”

“That’s right.”

“It’s a story we shared, but I think I was tricked.”

At Marquis Duran’s words, Marquis Ross looked at him cautiously.

“If it’s false…”

“It’s our opinion that Cromwell doesn’t seem to have made the Chimera.”

Marquis of Duran’s word meant about 30 superhumans. Marquis Ross sighed knowing that he was not mistaken because it was an opinion that he had guessed in his heart.

“Then what?”

“It is true that Adrias Cromwell is a warlock. Besides, being a rebel doesn’t change anything. We will erase Cromwell from the world as planned.”

“Chimeras…”

“It would be nice to use them. I will wait here for a while and then deliver the final blow.”

Marquis Ross nodded at the cold yet cruel words of the Marquis Duran. If the Chimeras were to avoid the subjugation army on their own and attack only Cromwell, it would have been better to minimize unnecessary power consumption.

“By the way, Cromwell is also doing well. I thought it was a small territory on the outskirts, but to hold out against those chimeras.”

Around Cromwell’s walls, there were so many chimeras that you couldn’t even see where to step. There were so many of them that they swarmed and looked like bugs.

“Aren’t you going to collapse soon? It’s not a number that only one territory can handle, and one Chimera is strong enough to survive even against ten soldiers…”

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa —–!

Marquis Ross’s words were drowned out by a roar.

When I looked at the place where the sound came from with a startled expression, there was something flying in the sky.

“That, that, that…!”

“Huh…….”

It was a huge dragon.

It was passed down only in traditional fairy tales or legends, and influential figures in the empire would have only seen the remains.

The longed-for dragon spewed flames at the chimeras and landed on top of the spire. Then I vaguely saw someone riding on the dragon’s back.

“aide! telescope!”

“Yes yep!”

The Aura Master, Marquis Duran, uses mana to increase his eyesight without needing a telescope. Then, the identity of the person who rode the dragon was finally confirmed.

“He is……”

“Adrias Cromwell!”

While the marquis were surprised by the appearance of Adrias, whom they thought would be inside the castle, Adrias came down the castle wall.

Looking as if he would use his magic against the chimeras at any moment, he cast his gaze away.

“You checked us.”

“Hmm.”

Seeing Adrias confirming the arrival of the punitive forces, Marquis Ross felt an unknown sense of impatience and nervousness.

“Shouldn’t we strike first?”

“There is no need to strain first. No matter how much Adrias Cromwell is, he can’t be weak against so many chimeras.”

In the first place, a superman could not overcome a number like that. It was Duke Duran’s idea that there would come a time when he had to step forward to take care of it for sure, but not now.

“The Marquis of Duran.”

At that time, Adrias’ voice penetrated even the noise of the battlefield and was transmitted to the subjugation party.

“Is it magic?”

As Marquis Duran sighed, laughed, and muttered, Adrias’ voice came through again.

“If you withdraw with the soldiers even now, I will spare you.”

His words could be heard by everyone in the subjugation party. And when everyone was bruised by the absurd content, only the Marquis of Duran burst into laughter.

“ha ha ha! funny. They seem to be arrogant with that dragon, but they see us as too much water.”

Adrias’s words were rather a great provocation. Marquis Duran, who had never imagined that he would lose because he hadn’t had to fight since becoming an Aura Master, revealed his will to die.

“I will personally kill you.”

Hearing Adrias’ voice, the rest of the superhumans came out of the luxurious magic tent and started laughing.

“Your liver is swollen.”

“Since the people around me say that I am the youngest Superman, he probably doesn’t know the subject.”

30 supermen.

The presence of them was enough to visualize the momentum flowing over the place where the punitive forces were located.

“It seems that all the superhumans in the three worlds have gathered.”

“Quiet! What if I hear it?”

Their momentum was so frightening that even the soldiers of the same subjugation army trembled in fear.

“Hahahaha… Huh?”

One of the superhumans who had been laughing at Adrias tilted his head. I wondered if I had seen it wrong for a moment, but in his gaze, Adrias was clearly smiling.

“Smile?”

At that moment, Adrias’ voice came through again.

“You’re laughing at the theme of the emperor’s hound, who ran away even forgetting the pride of being a superman because he was blinded by riches.”

“…….”

The atmosphere became chilly enough to give the illusion of being enveloped in silence from the noise of battle.

“How are you guys different from mercenaries who work for money? The mercenaries still try to get things covered, but you guys just drool over and can’t tell them apart.”

“It seems to be an attempt to insult us, but do you think that trick will work?”

One of the warlocks used magic to pay back Adrias. However, Adrias still continued with a sneer on his face.

“Then am I wrong?”

“Wrong! We hear the Emperor’s edict and have the honor of subduing the traitors who dare to rebel against the Empire…”

“Honor? Don’t be funny.”

Adrias held out his hand, pointing at the people and chimeras fighting around him.

“Don’t you feel anything when you see people being killed by monsters? In the first place, these chimeras are monsters created by the emperor you worship. Is it an honor to listen to the orders of such a person and attack humans with monsters?”

“Don’t try to seduce us with nonsense. I already know that these chimeras are yours too!”

“It looks like you’re stabbing yourself, knowing deep down that these chimeras aren’t for me?”

Warlock, who had been speaking as Adrias had said, stopped talking with a blush on his face. If the chimeras were the real Adrias’ property, he had nothing to say, as the present scene would not make sense.

“There’s no way His Majesty the Emperor of Hua would have created such wicked squire!”

“That is of no interest to me. The story is now over.”

Adrias ended the conversation as if he had given a final warning.

“I will show you hell.”

Wood deok!

At first I thought it was some kind of bullshit. That’s why I couldn’t immediately notice the slow wave of change.

“huh?”

The first to notice the abnormality on the battlefield was none other than the Marquis of Duran.

“Why are they fighting among themselves?”

“what?”

At the words of Marquis Duran, the other superhumans also widened their sights and surveyed the battlefield. Then, as Marquis Duran said, the chimeras were attacking each other.

“what?”

“As expected, Adrias Cromwell is the culprit who created the Chimera…!”

Warlock’s words did not carry on to the end. It was because when I looked closely, I saw the corpses lying on the floor rising up and attacking the chimeras regardless of what they were.

“Necro……Mancer?”

Just as they were panicking in an unimaginable situation, a horn suddenly sounded from somewhere.

Boo —-

Boo—!

“What is this again…”

The sound of horns echoing from all directions was clearly not of the Empire. Soon, a soldier who was scouting the surroundings hurriedly came running.

“I will give you a report!”

“Tell me!”

“An unknown force is approaching from the rear! It’s not the Empire’s troops…”

“…Nonsense. If it wasn’t for the imperial army, how could they have crossed the border? Aren’t they the troops of another lord?”

“Your ears were pointed!”

do you have pointy ears?

The superhumans who were listening to the report together were able to recall one being.

“Elf?”

“Heh heh. Watch it again and post it! Found an army of elves 30 minutes to the east! It is the coat of arms of La Lastilia!”

“Such nonsense!”

Did the elves cross the border and come here?

No, why did the races who were closed in Rastilia come here in the first place?

“Miss Ross! That urgent message!”

“What is it this time! I can’t believe it’s from an elf, but I’ve already heard it!”

“That’s not it, the news is that the northern borders of the Empire have been breached by northern barbarians!”

Silence prevailed.

After hearing the unbelievable news in succession, the commander-in-chief listened to the soldier’s words in a daze as if he were dreaming.

“Is the North open? Why… Ah!”

Most of the Imperial forces were now concentrated here. In addition, most of the superhumans are gathered here.

It was a situation where the northern part, which had already been pierced once and had not yet been restored, could be captured sufficiently.

Whoops—–!

The sound of the horn gradually drew closer.

And in the distance, the elves, who looked like a scouting unit, sneaked up the hill riding strange mounts.

“Heh heh, really an elven army…”

“Why the hell?”

Superhumans muttered in disbelief. There was no fear as much as I was confident in my skills, but the reaction was that this situation was incomprehensible.

“hmm? That person is…”

Someone spotted someone stuck between the elven scouts. The Marquis of Duran, who soon noticed the identity, shouted.

“……Deshrun Fallon?!”

A muscular old man was grinning with the elves on the hill.

“Who dares touch my disciple!”
