Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 415. Start]

When Adrias opened his eyes, the first thing he noticed was Vivian’s face lying side by side with her eyes closed.

“Vivian?”

Maybe this is a dream

Why is Vivian closing her eyes?

Questions flashed through his mind, but soon the opponent’s eyes slowly opened.

“did you sleep well?”

As if it wasn’t a dream, Vivian stood up with kind words. Following her, Adrias slowly stood up and looked around.

“ah!”

Before he could grasp the situation and location, someone noticed Adrias, who had risen, and shouted.

“Friend Woo Woo Woo!”

“Luna? big.”

Luna ran into his arms and bumped into him without slowing down.

“Aaaaaaa!”

Luna let out a grotesque cry like a battle cry, and soon burst into tears in Adrias’ arms.

Adrias, who was distracted, carefully stroked Luna’s hair and moved his gaze.

The inside of a room that is somehow familiar.

And the image of myself lying on the bed.

The people who surround it everywhere and watch it.

“Have you seen it?”

“You are fine! ha ha ha!”

Deshurn laughed out loud when he saw Adrias like that.

“Who are these bastards all gathered here for…”

Salem’s tone was rough, but the corners of his mouth went up and he had no intention of coming down, so he tried to hide his expression.

“I’m fine, so I’m leaving. It’s already hectic, but everyone can’t get their hands on work because of you alone.”

It was Salem Yedidiah, who grumbled and left the room. People couldn’t hide their laughter when they saw him.

“Anyway, the nobleman who caused the most uproar was not being honest…”

“What happened? Wouldn’t this be a dream?”

Adrias still had a hard time believing the sight in front of him. Of course, I thought I made the best choice in every situation, but I was confused because I went to the space of the contract without seeing the last one.

“Thanks to the people you called, the door was safely closed.”

It was Diene who explained. And beside her was a familiar face.

“The lord of Bahat’s tower was there too.”

“My daughter is here, so of course she’s not coming.”

Bahat said bluntly, but seeing Bahat like that, Morne burst out laughing.

“If it wasn’t for Bahat, I wouldn’t have been able to close the door. Arriving on time was a big help.”

“Is that so. Thank you, Lord of the Tower.”

Thanks to Morn and Adrias’s gratitude, Bahat was greeted while fiddling with his unkempt beard.

“I’ll say it again, I did my best for our Diene……”

“How are you feeling?”

Bahat’s complexion became embarrassing at Diene’s interrupted words. Adrias checked her condition in response to her question and confirmed that there was nothing wrong.

‘It must have been a fatal wound……’

Because he died, he was dragged into the space of the contract. Death must have been a serious injury, but the body was surprisingly fine.

“Is this really a dream?”

“What are you talking about? Among the people you called, doll-like people treated you. We also had a hard time.”

“I! I helped Bahat and Lucia make potions! You saved a friend in the past!”

Luna, who was held in his arms, raised her head and shouted with tears hanging from her nose. It felt so cute that Adrias twitched her cheeks unconsciously.

Tak tok tok!

There was a commotion in the hallway outside.

At the same time, the door to the room opened, and people who were not there burst in at the same time.

“brother!”

“I heard you woke up! Are you awake?!”

It was Amy and the four members of the academy.

Adrias’s last memory was that Serena and Chris weren’t there, but he frowned when he saw them together.

“Why are you here?”

“Of course I’m here to help! As soon as I heard the news of the monsters, the family rushed off with their troops!”

When Serena said, Chris, who was next to her, nodded in tandem.

“Thanks to you, I am getting a lot of help with post-war processing. How is your body better than that? We all thought my brother was dead.”

Amy finally approached Adrias with tears in her eyes. As soon as Luna, who was watching her notice, sneaked back, she was hugged by Adrias as if she had waited.

“Amy.”

“How do you feel? Are you okay? look where So why did you push yourself so hard, you stupid bastard!”

Along with the words pouring out like a rapid-fire cannon, tears that didn’t know how to stop wet her pretty face.

“I’m okay.”

“are you okay? are you okay? That’s what I’m going to say now!”

Adrias, who seemed like he would be nagged no matter what he said, just smiled awkwardly.

“Everyone was giving up until Vivian heard that she could wake her brother up with her powers. But really waking up like this…”

When Amy started crying again, Adrias, looking embarrassed, had no choice but to quietly pat her on the back.

“To be honest, we did our best, but your life was already ended.”

Bahat explained in a calm voice.

“The inside of my body was already damaged beyond use, but the immortal beings you summoned forcibly put it back. After that, we made potions and fed them. Still, I couldn’t bring the dead back to life.”

“But Vivian unnie did it.”

Lucia, who had been standing quietly by the side until then, continued with red bloodshot eyes.

“I’m glad you’re safe, senpai.”

“……okay. Thank you, Lucia.”

Gradually feeling everything come to life, Adrias turned his head and met Vivian’s eyes. Vivian, who seemed to have not changed her appearance even after evolving, faced Adrias and stroked her hair.

“Adrias… suffered alone in a place we didn’t know.”

Her soft voice echoed around her.

“Are you done now?”

Although she spoke in a whisper, her question reached everyone’s ears. People waited for Adrias’ answer with tense expressions.

“The end……”

Adrias finally realized.

That all the gule that was tying yourself is now over.

no it wasn’t over

“Now we are starting.”

“Ah…”

Those who understood the meaning of Adrias’ words nodded with brightened expressions.

“Yes, it is a start. Not just a start.”

“Heh, that’s good.”

Deshurn and Morne nodded happily.

“The guy who only spoke fluently.”

“Even your father can’t be honest.”

“What what? Great.”

The Alven father and daughter hit it off and said,

“It’s really fortunate, senior.”

“Ughhh brother! I’m glad you’re okay! I’m so glad! Whoops!”

“Stop crying. I really want to shed tears for no reason… What is it? Chris, are you crying too?”

The four members of the academy chatted loudly.

Evan was just like a shadow, far away, but his head was bent to the ground, probably because he couldn’t control his turbulent emotions.

“Senior, can I hug you just once?”

“me too! Me too!”

“This is my brother! Give me your brother’s arms a little more!”

Amy, Lucia, and Luna flirted and dug into Adrias’s arms.

Quaang!

“Hey hey! Our West has woken up! Just lie!”

Angela, who appeared late, inspected the atmosphere in the room and soon met eyes with Adrias.

“It’s real…….”

Adrias had a hunch that these things would continue for a while.

**

The empire has fallen.

While most of the troops were driven to Cromwell, the Confederacy and the Western Rebel Alliance, which had been looking for an opportunity for a while, joined forces to launch a general offensive, and the surprise advance of the northern barbarians, which no one expected, eventually collapsed the imperial family.

The news that even the emperor was missing spread throughout the empire, and the nobility of the empire moved quickly, weighing their own gains and losses.

In the end, the empire was divided into small pieces, leading to the Age of Warring States, in which feudal lords sprang up. Among them, the most powerful force was the western nobility alliance led by Mohaim, who was well-prepared.

However, such an unconventional declaration was made by the Western Noble Union, or the Moheim family.

‘Our Morhaime family will become one with Cromwell.’

Simply thinking about it, I thought the Morhaime family ate Cromwell, but the reality was completely different. Morhaime went under Cromwell.

People raised many rumors about this unexpected move, but in the end, no one was able to figure out why Morheim made such a choice.

In such a situation, even the Alven family, which had never belonged to any faction, hoped to be subordinated to Cromwell.

Unlike the case of the Morheim family, this became an event that shocked the entire continent.

‘Why was one of the 10 people on the continent and the lord of the continent’s best Mage Tower subordinated to Cromwell?’

People didn’t know the details behind it.

However, Cromwell’s growing power soon ate half of the land that had been the empire, making it impossible to care about gossip.

And around that time other news began to hit the continent.

‘Cromwell is an ally with the elves.’

‘Cromwell also gets help from the Beasts.’

‘The desert tribes in Shaiya and the barbarians in the north are all forces under Cromwell’s command.’

In addition, there were rumors that they were supported by Grandis Kingdom, rumors that they were protected by vampires, and rumors that the Cromwell family was the suzerain of all black magicians, but the truth could not be accurately identified.

In the end, Cromwell declared the kingdom three years after the imperial family collapsed and demonstrated that he became the ruler of the new continent.

**

Under the kingdom of Cromwell, there were several families that contributed to the founding. Among them, of course, there were famous families such as Morheim and Alven, but there were also many unknown families.

Representatively, there was the Hollington family of Lucia, the Erestial family of Serena, and the Yunor family of Chris.

“Wouldn’t that work for me now?”

Serena draped the tip of her sparring sword around Chris’ neck and said with a smile. Looking at Serena like that, Chris just nodded bluntly.

“……Not funny.”

“How is your body?”

“How is it? You are so fine.”

Serena answered casually, but her stomach was slightly swollen. And Serena, who knew that it was because of Chris’ gentle response, sighed and inserted the sword.

“You were a very caring father.”

“I’m more concerned about you than the child.”

“……what.”

Serena awkwardly turned her head at Chris’s sudden words. The two, who had become a couple before they knew it, were always training together as usual even after they made a kite.

“Anyway, I thought we were going to have a ceremony soon.”

“Well, I know in a month.”

“I didn’t know Louis would end up with Miss Amy.”

“As an escort knight, I thought we could deepen our bond.”

“No, I’m a strict Louis who lives with the public, but I couldn’t believe it.”

Soon after lightly tidying up the gymnasium, the two returned and found Agatha busily passing by.

“Oh cat sister. Where are you going?”

“ah! Serena. just got back You should watch it quickly and take a rest. Hello Chris.”

Agatha, a hybrid of human and beast, no longer hid her ears. Over the years, she has built up confidence by carrying out numerous missions, and has become a renowned solver on the continent.

“You are suffering a lot.”

“That suffering will be over soon. Because the situation on the continent is gradually stabilizing. But why are you two here?”

“An unknown grandfather gives me regular health checkups, but I felt sorry for coming every time, so I came myself this time.”

“Oh, I’m pregnant, so I should be careful. Don’t feel so sorry for an unknown inspiration.”

“I’m also asking how the people here are doing. The distance is not too far.”

“Anyway, I’m glad it looks good.”

“Yeah, you’re busy, but you’ve been holding on for a long time. Rest well.”

“Yeah, you’re taking care of yourself too.”

Soon after, the two separated from Agatha and looked at each other’s faces. Serena and Chris, who grasped each other’s intentions as if a signal had been reached, soon headed somewhere.

smart.

“who?”

“My sister is me. Chris is here too.”

“come in.”

Arriving in front of a room, the two shook hands with the lady-in-waiting guarding the door and went inside.

“Come on.”

Vivian was in the room. In her arms was a newborn baby who must have just been born.

“oh!”

“I heard that you came here. How are you feeling?”

“So good. Rather, these days, my appetite is so craving that I’m going to get out of bed.”

“I’m glad. Sit here.”

Chris and Serena couldn’t take their eyes off the baby in Vivian’s arms.

“Crazy. How can you be so cute and calm?”

“You look like your child’s father.”

“That’s a bit…”

Serena unconsciously stroked her stomach. After marrying Chris, I felt so cute when I saw the child, but when I actually saw Vivian’s child, I felt indescribable emotions.

“Really…so pretty.”

“Why are you crying all of a sudden? Chris, is he okay?”

“As usual.”

Chris bluntly blew away Serena’s emotion.

“Eh. I live with a man like this, sister.”

“You still like it.”

“That’s right.”

“Have you met Adrias?”

Serena, still unable to take her eyes off the child at Vivian’s question, shook her head.

“How can I meet someone who is busy?”

“I’m not as busy as I thought. You can meet me once.”

“Even though my sister says so……”

“Then let’s go see it with me now. I was thinking of leaving anyway.”

Vivian stood up cautiously. Instead, Serena put on a nervous expression and couldn’t take her eyes off the baby.

“Will it be okay? The same goes for babies…”

“Yes.”

When Vivian left the room, Serena and Chris hurriedly followed. There was no one in Adrias’s office when the three arrived.

“What, where have you been?”

“His Highness has now gone down to the gymnasium.”

At the words of the attendant who was guarding the office, the three of them went down to the gymnasium and found Adrias sparring with someone.

Kwajang!

“Weren’t you busy with state affairs…?”

Serena muttered at the sight of him, and Vivian let out a shallow laugh.

“I told you. I’m not as busy as I thought.”

Soon, Adrias, noticing that others had entered, stopped the sparring. His sparring opponent was none other than Nickel.

“Serena Chris. long time no see.”

Adrias, who greeted her warmly, immediately went up to Vivian and put her lips on her forehead. And smiled at the child in her arms.

“Isn’t it pretty?”

“yes? yes.”

“She resembles Vivian and is already so pretty.”

“I guess that’s right.”

Chris and Serena, who looked at Adrias, who showed a propensity to open arms, asked with ambiguous eyes.

“You weren’t busy, were you?”

“I left everything. Now you know what to do.”

“……Is that okay?”

Serena asked with a worried face, but Adrias answered casually.

“I think I said it a while ago, but I don’t care about kings or power. Even doing this is trying to live peacefully in a better world.”

“I didn’t even think that I would really give up the throne. I still don’t think so.”

“well. Perhaps when stabilization is certain, I will just give this seat to someone I trust and live peacefully in a rural area.”

At Adrias’ words, Chris and Serena looked at each other. If anyone else had said this, I thought it would be practically impossible, but a vague thought crossed my mind that Adrias would.

Because he had the power to destroy any power.

“That was then. Now that we’ve come this far, let’s have dinner together.”

“Okay. Are the others coming too?”

“Let me ask you one more time. Maybe it will come.”

After looking at Adrias’ current situation, Serena and Chris returned, leaving behind Adrias and Vivian who were fussing around.

“If everyone gathers for dinner, there won’t be a need to visit and say hello.”

“Isn’t it possible that Diane Alven won’t be able to come because she’s busy with work at the Mage Tower?”

“Ah, I became the owner of the mage tower this time. Then let’s stop by on the way back.”

Chris nodded at Serena’s words and opened his mouth cautiously.

“If Adrias Cromwell abdicates the throne and steps down… can peace really continue?”

“It’s not something we can force. And now that I look at it, it doesn’t seem like I have anything to do.”

“Live buried in the early night with loved ones… It’s like a dream.”

“Shall we come too?”

When Serena jokingly asked, Chris tilted his head.

“Perhaps only a few will be together. Vivien and Lucia Diane Angela… Maybe you like going out for fun once in a while.”

“It’s a joke, but why do you take it so seriously?”

“I said just in case.”

Serena finally laughed at Chris’ serious words. Feeling good about this, Serena murmured.

“I really hope that someday…really, the peace that Adrias-senpai said will come and that will happen. Sometimes I go to play and interact with the children…….”

“I think it is possible. Adrias Cromwell’s power is the power to make the impossible possible. At least while he is alive, it will be possible.”

“okay. Then when that time comes, let’s go play often. Just like in the academy.”

Thinking of that time…….

The two smiled at each other.

**

“Is this the rumored place?”

My name is Tarman.

He is a monk who came out of the monastery where he had been training all his life and finally started to interact with the world.

As I stood blankly in front of the building, a boy passing by asked with a tilt of his head.

“uh? who are you?”

“My name is Tarman. Is this a swordsmanship dojo run by a man called the Red Knight?”

“ah! that’s right! Are you a guest?”

“Yes.”

The purpose of this trip is to visit famous martial arts studios and academies to seek instruction. The first destination was the swordsmanship dojo run by the red knight.

‘It’s a place that was rumored to be run by non-humans.’

At first, I heard that it was a lot of talk and a lot of trouble, but now it is said that it is a representative attraction of this city. In particular, Gwanju became famous for his excellent swordsmanship.

[“Welcome, I am Jerome Dracul.”]

As rumored, the man called the Red Knight was not human. The height of over 2m and the red appearance gave a sense of intimidation.

“nice to meet you. My name is Tarman, who has practiced at Shamad Monastery. Today, I visited to learn one number teaching.”

[“Looks like a martial artist. You worked hard to get here.”]

The other person was more polite than I thought. Perhaps it was because of the prejudice that came out of his appearance, he felt much kinder even though his words and actions were trivial.

“It’s just as rumored that you can tell that you’re a martial artist at a glance.”

“uh? Are you a guest?”

Then a cheerful voice came from inside. I glanced over and saw a girl with silvery white hair looking at me with mysterious colored eyes.

“hi?”

“Oh hello. My name is Tarman.”

“I am Luna! Luna Pendragon!”

“Lu Luna Pendragon!”

Oh, sorry for the unexpected name. But just as much, the name of the other person was enough to embarrass me. The result of the practice is…….

“Do you know me?”

“I think people who don’t know are even rarer. Aren’t you a colleague of Adrias the Great?”

“that’s right! My friend!”

I honestly couldn’t believe it when I saw him say it with a bright face. However, seeing Jerome Dracul still, it seemed that the famous Luna Pendragon was right.

“Then I will go now! Good job Jerome!”

[“See you next time. At that time, I will visit Adrias.”]

“Yes!”

Soon, Luna passed me and left the dojo. No, more than that, Jerome Dracul was also an acquaintance of Adrias the Great!

“Jerome. Are you related to Adrias the Great?”

[“You are my benefactor.”]

“Huh! Can I hear the story?”

[“It’s a long story to tell… would you mind?”]

“The biggest reason I came to this world is to broaden my knowledge. If you don’t mind, I’d like to hear from Jerome.”

[“Then there’s nothing I can’t do.”]

When Jerome smiled and said, I realized that he was no different from a human being.

[“Come inside. Over tea, I will tell you about the Adrias Cromwell I know from the beginning.”]

“Thank you.”

I calmed my agitated heart and went inside.

Looking forward to hearing about Adrias Cromwell’s biography soon…
