The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains Episode 030

8. The Mill and the Undertaker (4)

Actually, I don’t like necromancers very much. The reason- Of course it’s because of PvP. I’m getting a lot of bad luck.

Necromancer was such a character that he won even if he controlled some classes with his feet, and some classes would volley no matter how much he used his dragon. Should we say that it is close to impossible to overcome the structural limitations?

And in the first place, the weak caster was not my taste.

But whatever my taste, the necromancer was a pretty popular character. It’s versatile and easy to play, and the concept is fun. This is why it can’t be popular.

Besides, the performance is also decent.

The so-called ‘Bamboo Spear’ magic represented by ‘Venomous Spear’ and ‘Acid Arrow’.

Wide-area continuous damage magic such as ‘Sphere of Annihilation’ and ‘Fog of Death’.

Powerful mezugi (skills that hinder the enemy) called the “Abyss Series”.

I can’t say they’re the best, but they were all skills that boasted great performance.

However, the skills representing the necromancer were not annihilation magic or black magic.

Your name is ‘Necromancer’ right? Of course, the signature skill of a necromancer was ‘necromancy’.

Vengeful spirit series ranging from ‘goblin fire’ to ‘spirit’ and ‘banshee’.

A sequence of corpses from ‘Zombie’ to ‘Skeleton Soldier’ and ‘Dulahan’.

Soul total columns such as ‘Wandering Skull’ or ‘Demon’.

And even the ultimate Undead, a ‘Death Knight’ that can only summon a single entity.

The skill of producing and commanding such a variety of undead minions was necromancy.

What was interesting about this necromancy was that there were many different types of minions, so players could build troops in all kinds of combinations according to their taste.

You can build a small elite unit with high-level units or create a large-scale swarm with low-level units.

The ‘Standard Combination’, which mixes minions in a balanced way, or the ‘Fly Combination’, which uses only minions capable of flying, the ‘Tteokdae Combination’, which fills the screen with Banshee and explodes the speaker. Gang meta’ and more.

Combining troops in all sorts of ways in this way was the real appeal of Necromancer play.

There is even a story that the genre of the game changes from RPG to RTS the moment you raise a necromancer.

Besides, I’m a genuine hardcore user.

He understood very well how useful the presence of undead minions, who were willing to die for the player – well they were already dead – was.

While I was thinking about that, Mr. Luke, who was sheltering from the sun under a tree, said with a smile.

“Isn’t it hot? Take it easy, you can be phonic.”

“Oh, it’s okay, Mr. Luke. I don’t even sweat this much.”

Mr. Luke was weaving branches in the shade, and I was digging diligently in the scorching sun. It was to bury a body without ointment found in the market.

Why am I suffering like this?

Of course, to impress Luke.

With the help of the necromancer, the campaign will be much easier.

If I could buy Mr. Luke’s favor with a little bit of shoveling, I was confident that I would happily dig the ground all day long. It’s a matter of survival.

Of course, that’s what the horse said, but the actual shoveling was over soon. It was thanks to the combination of the skills of a reserve sergeant and the muscular endurance of a superman.

When the unknown man was completely buried in the ground, Mr. Luke put a cross in front of him and knelt down. Then he closed his eyes and muttered something while touching the ground.

“…Death is not loss, but being rid of your passions and desires, and finally being freed from the pain of life…

” There were so many things I wanted to ask.

Why is he, the seeker of the ‘Eternal words’, also known as the ‘Younggeummun’, working as a mortician in South Harbor?

Do you have a wand or a bronze crown made of the Great Devil’s bones?

Didn’t he create low-level undead using the corpses of strong losers?

what kind of stuff like that

However, from the very beginning, I was wondering if it was okay to ask these questions.

Mr. Luke approached me after a prayer or ceremony and smiled.

“Thank you Phoenix-kun. Thanks to you, it saved me a lot of trouble.”

“It’s nothing, Mr. Luke.”

Seeing Mr. Luke with a gentle smile makes me feel frustrated.

The most curious question echoed heavily in my heart.

Just like how the elemental wizard ‘Ganadara Wizard’ became El Ren.

Did the necromancer ‘Normal manners’ become Mr. Luke?

I’m not sure yet, but the hat and clothes Mr. Luke was wearing were the same equipment I had installed.

I remember it clearly because it was a look that I purposely matched to play the concept.

I wanted to ask about that outfit, but- isn’t Luke and I meeting for the first time today? It seemed that it would be considered a little strange to ask the source of the clothes the opponent was wearing.

So, as if I was doing a role play, I brought up a topic that people of this era would be curious about.

“I didn’t know there was a mortician in South Harbor.”

“Oh yes. There is a church, so it’s the end of the day. I’m probably the only mortician in this town.”

Mr. Luke brushed the dirt off his knees and continued.

“As you may have guessed, I am not from here. I came from Ireland across the narrow sea.”

“…I see.”

In fact, the blood knight Phoenix was also from Ireland, so it was right to pretend to know him here, but he didn’t.

If you talk, you’ll find out that I know very little about Eiland.

…I don’t know the character settings well, but the role play is a piece of shit.

The bad habit of skipping is holding back my ankles again.

“Hehe, did you come to South Harbor alone?”

At my question, Mr. Luke sighed deeply and shook his head.

“Whoa, no. I had a few people, but I lost them in the sewers. It was already ten days ago.”

“What a pity. But why in the sewer…”

Mr. Luke’s face was covered with remorse or sadness. The drawn wrinkles seem to create a deeper shade.

“We had a place to go to in a hurry for work in our hometown. However, the blockade of the city did not intend to be lifted, so the party naturally became impatient. I should have dried it more aggressively then…”

Aha I remember. The goal of the scenario of the Necromancer and the Holy Knight was ‘Seteniora’, a monastery on the cliff.

In the game, the player characters finish the chapter, which is a tutorial, and from chapter 2, they share the same path to solve the campaign.

The blood knights and the elemental wizards, the necromancers, the narrow seas to the south.

Berserkers and Soul Shamans in the Corridor to the west.

The swordsman and martial arts master are in the eastern snowy mountains.

Paladins and arcane hunters grove to the north.

After going through those journeys, they gathered at South Harbor, the stage of Chapter 2.

After that, the scenario is slightly different, but the areas you pass through are almost the same.

While I was thinking about that, the old undertaker ran his wrinkled hand down his face and continued.

“I heard rumors that there is a passage leading to the outside in the sewer. That’s why I blindly went down the sewer and got changed.”

“Oh… You must be heartbroken.”

“Thank you for comforting me. It’s a great sadness just to lose the people of the same town, but- hoo. My heart is even heavier with the added guilt of not being able to do what I was supposed to do.”

Mr. Luke, who was smiling wryly, said that, then suddenly raised his head and met my eyes.

“Actually… that’s why I listened to the rumors about you.”

“yes? What is that…”

“I heard you caught a crocodile in the sewer. And that’s not an ordinary guy, but a very big one.”

No, how the heck did this place come from, so rumors spread so quickly? No matter how small the city is…

“I was lucky. I didn’t catch it alone.”

“Ah, I heard that he hires a young porter.”

“…a porter?”

Are you talking about Ellen? Rumors are so great.

To say that Ellen is a porter is absurd! It is said that the guy is closer to the burden.

“hmm? is not it? That’s what I heard.”

At Mr. Luke’s question, I shook my head. No matter what I mean, it’s foolish to gossip about a colleague with my maternal wife.

“Haha, that’s bullshit from people who don’t know. Ellen is my strong ally.”

“Hmm, that’s right.”

Mr. Luke nodded for a moment, then asked politely.

“If you ever think about going into the sewer again, can you take me with you?” Ohhh? What is this? Rather, it was what I wanted to say…. Could it be that me and the subs are connected by some kind of ‘string of fate’?

…Whatever it is, it’s kind of awkward that it’s connected to Mr. Luke, right?

I don’t know if it’s a female paladin or a female blood knight, but the old necromancer grandpa is a little…

Seeing my expression darkening, Mr. Luke added, urgently but in a calm tone.

“Sure, I’m old, but I have a lot of experience as well. He is as healthy as any young man, so he can carry a lot of luggage and manage a few leftovers.”

You don’t have to appeal that much. I was going to take him anyway, my father.

“You mean you want to go into the sewer… You mean you want to find a passage out?”

“There’s that too… but if I get a chance, I’d like to take care of the people who are lying down underground somewhere.”

“Um, I guess so. Then what do you mean by residual stock?” “I am a person who follows the teachings of the Golden Gate. You can draw a little bit of the power of the abyss, and you know how to handle a little bit of annihilation magic.”

The power of the abyss and the magic of extinction…! Of course, it’s still low level, so there won’t be any great spells, but it will be useful enough. Isn’t that magic anyway?

after. My heart is full. Will I finally finally get a decent colleague?

I suppressed the laughter I was trying to burst out and asked Mr. Luke.

“Hmm, that’s right. Then- can you handle undead minions?” “…Undead?” “yes. Undead. What is Skeleton Soldier or Flying Skull or something like a flying skeleton…”

…what is it? Mr. Luke’s expression became a little mysterious.

The moment I tried to ask again because I wondered if I had said something wrong.

“trunnion! How rude is that?”

“Daria?”

Daria appeared from the mill as if the milling had finished before she knew it, holding sacks of grain in her arms.

She trotted up to me, poked her side, and bowed her head to Mr. Luke.

“I’m sorry. Poi lacks common sense. Sometimes he does the wrong thing… Please understand, Mr. Luke.”

“No, it’s fine. Is it a misunderstanding often received as a seeker of the truth of the Golden Gate? I never would have imagined that you would ask such a direct question.”

What are you talking about? What have I done wrong?

Noticing my doubtful eyes, Leah came closer and whispered.

“Undead, what a big deal is that? If you get caught in the wrong church, you will be burned at the stake.”

“…what? No, the necromancer deals with the undead-”

“Poi! Watch your words!”

Daria hastily covered my mouth and looked around. Judging by the timing, it seemed that the reason for her surprise was the word ‘necromancer’.

oh wait something ominous?

I urgently removed Daria’s hand and asked Mr. Luke.

“But Mr. Luke, what did you use Fen fire or wisp fire before?”

“Ah, is that what you mean?”

Mr. Luke’s expression was a little hardened as if he had become a little uncomfortable. Even so, he tried to explain with a smile.

“Dokkaebi fire is just a spiritual flame created by gathering the thoughts left by the ghost. It has nothing to do with necromancy.”

…what bullshit is this? Summoning demon fire is a rank 1 skill in necromancy, right?

“Well, I think you still misunderstand something. I’m sure-”

Mr. Luke nailed my confused expression with a firm expression.

“I do not deal with witchcraft. Defying death is against the teachings of the Golden Gate as well as the doctrines of the Gwangmyeong Church.”

…Somehow, they said things were going smoothly. What after the wand stand? A necromancer who can’t use necromancy?

Trickster you bastard! I’m telling you to break this!
