I Became a Necromancer Villain in a Game Novel

Episode 15

problem.

Rural Village Chief, Level 999, Great Demon King, Level 10.

When asked to classify four words into two.

A hundred would match the level 10 with a hundred village chiefs.

The reason I didn’t hold Gould so highly was for good reason.

But it’s level 450.

At this level, he was on par with the pope, archbishop, and sword master of the kingdom.

An NPC that is too much to be in a small town like Byron City!

“Are you surprised to see my magical power?”

Gould scratched his head.

“I’m sorry. But it’s not a fact that can be revealed carelessly.”

“it’s okay. But why is a powerful necromancer like you in a place like this?”

“It is simple. It’s because it can’t be as good as me.”

The Temple of Thor in Byron City was a teojutdaegam that had been established for several hundred years.

Now that the god Thor has become the three major gods.

The prestige of the temple could not be seen carelessly by even the most high-ranking nobles.

“I can’t survive anyway.”

“okay… … .”

Fafnil calmed down slowly.

‘Awesome. I can’t believe it was an NPC like this.’

If I had just passed by, I would have regretted it forever.

“Anyway, you and I became priests, but we can’t just pass by.”

Gould looked through his pocket and pulled out a black jewel.

“Receive it, it’s a commemorative gift given to a disciple.”

-Obtained the Dark Mana Stone (Unique).

“Uh… … .”

“It’s a material that you have to prepare yourself, but since this happens, there’s nothing we can do about it.”

– Completed all conditions of the quest ‘Gould’s Test’.

Upon receiving the Dark Mana Stone, a golden notification window appeared.

“Then how many other ingredients have you gathered?”

Gould quietly asks.

If you are going through hardships, you will be able to get hints or purchase routes for materials here.

however… … .

“Actually, I’ve gathered all the rest of the ingredients.”

“Yes, the biggest burden has been relieved, so the rest is slow… … . hmm?”

This time it was Gould’s turn to surprise.

“You got them all? that!”

“Yes, I went around a lot, and I also borrowed help from my friends.”

“As expected, he’s the kind of talent I’ve been eyeing!”

– Gould’s affinity has increased by +10.

Honey was dripping from Gould’s eyes at Fafnir.

“Receive it, it’s the vision skill you promised.”

-Skill Book: Obtained Hellkite’s Homunculus Recipe (Unique).

‘Vision skill… … !’

Unique skills named after NPCs are called vision skills.

Naturally, these were much more valuable than the same general skills.

The main effects such as damage, enhancement value, and recovery amount are very high.

Support effects such as MP consumption, cooldown, success rate, and duration are good.

Some vision skills even had special effects that were not found in normal skills.

Once you get it, it’s unconditionally better than a normal skill.

Of course, the vision skill was difficult to obtain.

You can never get it by trading or hunting normal monsters.

Interactions with specific NPCs.

Or drop from a unique class or higher boss monster with a rare chance!

And that’s not all.

Transactions between users were also blocked for visions, so they had to work hard to obtain even the smallest vision.

In fact, just getting one of each character was considered lucky.

‘Flush bastard only used that vision skill, but… … .’

I ran some errands for the dwarves and got a bunch of arcane smelting techniques.

After helping the elf fight, I got Arcane Elementalism.

Being kicked is a vision skill, to the point that he couldn’t remember all the skills he had in the latter half.

‘… … .’

For some reason, I feel like my stomach is tingling!

Anyway, the important thing was the fact that he had acquired one such vision skill.

“Then I will learn it thanks.”

“Manufacturing can be done whenever you can afford it.”

He said so, but Gould’s expression was full of curiosity.

Fafnir said with a grin.

“I will definitely show it to you, so you don’t have to do it too much.”

“Hum, hum. Did you notice a lot?”

That’s right, if you come close to him with your upper body bent at 45 degrees, you can’t go unnoticed.

“Oh, come to think of it, I have a favor to ask of you.”

“You can say anything, Master.”

“Master, it feels strange to hear this.”

– Gould’s affinity has increased by +1.

“Anyway, let’s start with the first one.”

Gould cleared his throat and continued.

“Actually, I boasted about getting a budding guy at a bar a while ago, but what’s different about seeing Gerard once? If you are not busy… … .”

-Gould wants to ask you a favor.

-Do you accept the quest?

“If it’s Gerard, is he the one in charge of the city guard?”

“Okay, go see the guards when you have time.”

When something good happens, people want to brag about it.

Gould also couldn’t resist the urge and got his nose pierced.

“All right.”

– You have accepted the quest.

A good NPC with various information and quests if you are the captain of the city guard.

In the first place, the position of captain of the guard itself was a position that only Madangbal could do.

‘It means that you can receive several good chain quests if you get good impressions.’

It was then.

By the time Fafnir organized his thoughts.

“The second request is a bit more important.”

Gould said with a serious expression.

“Now that you have become my disciple, it is my duty to report this to the master.”

“okay.”

“But I can’t leave here. There is no one to take the place of you. so… … .”

Fafnir had a hunch what the words would lead to.

“Could you please come and meet my master instead of me?”

-Gould wants to ask you a favor.

-Do you accept the quest? (Y/N)

‘Of course it’s a quest that must be done.’

If you are Gould’s teacher, you must be a great necromancer.

Even if he hadn’t become a disciple, he was someone he should have met at least once.

“If I get a chance during my trip, I will definitely visit you.”

“Yes, thank you.”

– You have accepted the quest.

If you raise your level and go on an adventure, you will have a chance someday.

That was the moment.

-The quest ‘Visit Samantha’ (Unique) has been created.

– These are quests related to the main stream.

No matter how much Fafnir was surprised today.

Also, while playing various games, I got used to many situations.

‘No, this can’t be helped.’

After thinking, Fafnir immediately followed his instinct and opened his mouth wide.

* * *

main quest.

In most games, these are the big missions that advance the story.

Of course, there were such stories in Horizon as well.

However, only a few selected heroes were able to proceed with this.

Specifically, including the flush, it is within five fingers.

‘That’s why main quest information was managed on a limited basis everywhere.’

To think such a main quest was here.

It was truly an unexpected surprise.

‘It’s exactly ‘related’, so it should be a semi-main quest.’

Of course, most of these lead to the main quest.

Now Fafnil has hit the jackpot.

‘Huh, it’s the main quest.’

Even when I was still, I ate and laughed.

‘It’s not easy though.’

Warlocks mostly go around hiding their whereabouts.

Not only are they being chased by the gods of light, but they also don’t get along very well with each other.

‘To the clue of Archmage Lulun, to find Hellkite… … . There are only difficult things.’

Fafnir let out a sigh and the conversation from earlier passed through his mind.

‘On top of that, the monster ministry was also added… … .’

Come Vampire.

A living monster was needed to use this skill.

‘That’s why I asked, but I never thought there would be one more quest.’

Hearing the question about the monster ministry, Gould laughed.

“He is a talented person that I have been looking for. Skeleton soldiers don’t fill the castle, right?”

Geniuses are different from the speed at which they acquire knowledge.

Fafnir had a track record so far, so it was expected this time too.

“I thought so. There is an expert in the Necromancer Guild in the capital, so I will write you a letter of introduction.”

– A new quest ‘Letter of Introduction’ has been created.

Suddenly, three more quests were added.

I still have a lot of things to do, but it wasn’t until this point that even two bodies were not enough.

‘It can’t be helped.’

If you can’t have two bodies, you just need to increase them more.

Fafnir asked Gould.

“Could I borrow a quiet place by any chance?”

“location… … . You mean the workshop.”

A well-established warlock has at least one workshop.

A place to gather labs and equipment that can be undisturbed.

“I’d be happy to lend it. Because you are my disciple.”

Gould readily gave up his studio.

However, there was one condition.

“I will work where I am observing.”

The feelings of a deceased person watching newbies who have reaped directly grow!

Thanks to this, Fafnir was able to start working right away.

‘Let’s start by increasing the number of skeleton soldiers.’

Currently, there are three elite skeleton soldiers that can be carried with you.

In addition to No. 1, I was able to make two more.

‘If there are three skeleton soldiers, more organic movements will be possible.’

Depending on the material used, the characteristics of the Skeleton Bottle also change.

The best combination you can do right now is… … .

‘These guys.’

Fafnir placed each ingredient and used the skill.

Wood deok! The melted bones moved and soon turned into human-shaped soldiers.

-Elite Skeleton Soldiers who have undergone workshop corrections have acquired additional stats.

-Elite Skeleton Soldiers who have undergone workshop corrections have acquired additional stats.

[Elite Skeleton Soldier]

-Please give me a name.

[Elite Skeleton Soldier]

-Please give me a name.

Two Skeleton Soldiers created!

If each of them received a name, later, when their fame rose, they could shake off the notoriety associated with that name all over the place.

“hmm… … .”

Fafnir said without hesitation.

“To No. 2 and No. 3, respectively.”

A grandiose name for a skeleton soldier is extravagance.

The most important thing is short and clearly distinguishable characteristics!

daughter, daughter, daughter.

No. 2 and No. 3 opened their mouths as if to protest something.

It was then.

clap. less so

Number 1 appeared behind Fafnir.

-Kiririk.

-Kirik.

Startle! Numbers 2 and 3 take a step or two back.

No. 1 approached them and started bouncing the skulls of the two Skeleton Soldiers.

“… … .”

Somehow I saw it somewhere.

Fafnir tried to ignore the chills running down his spine.

‘Let’s see where the specs came from.’

[No. 2]

-Type: Skeleton

– Level: 36

-Relation: Servant

-Attack Power: 133

-Defense: 37

-View detailed status

[No. 3]

-Type: Skeleton

– Level: 38

-Relation: Servant

-Attack Power: 113

-Defense: 85

-View detailed status

‘As expected.’

The second Skeleton Soldier was made from the bones of a zombie troll, and the third from Dark Snail’s shell.

I didn’t expect it, but the characteristics of the original monster that became the material were applied to the skeleton soldier!

‘I’ll have to remember that when making a skeleton bottle in the future.’

It was good to take on the roles of one-shot dealer and tank, respectively.

“Is this enough for the Skeleton Soldier?”

Fafnil nodded.

Anyway, now that the skill level is 1, the maximum is three.

As the skill level goes up, one more will increase, so you can increase it over time.

“But why did you start right away with the Elite Skeletons?”

Normally, it is correct to start with a normal skeleton soldier.

Even if you think about the difficulty of growth or training method, everything is like that, but why?

“I thought that no matter how strong I become, I cannot command all monsters by myself.”

There is a limit to the total amount of magic power of a Necromancer.

Even if you reach a few hundred levels through growth, it’s the same.

Then there was no need to carry the whole load alone.

“We’ll focus on fostering elites, and when the opportunity arises, we’ll let those guys work for lower-tier monsters.”

Just as large corporations run subcontracts, miscellaneous mana consumption is passed on to familiars!

The difference was that in this case there could be no complaints.

“That’s a good way. There must be many downsides.”

Since it is a weak class, many thieves and archers try to assassinate the necromancer.

If he wasn’t going to be accompanied by elite subordinates 24 hours a day, he was an excellent necromancer who had to always anticipate such an assassination attempt.

“I will keep that in mind.”

Fafnir lowered his head and thought.

‘By the way, it’s a good thing to know that it’s an attack and defense correction.’

The message I saw while making the two skeleton bottles.

As it was said, small additional values were added to the statuses of No. 2 and No. 3.

‘It’s something that didn’t exist when I was making the first issue.’

If you think about it, it makes sense.

With tools to make random in the yard.

It doesn’t make much sense if the tools used in the lab or in the factory are the same.

‘I’ll have to prepare a workshop first after I grow up.’

Renting Gould’s workshop is a day or two.

I couldn’t stay here forever.

A reason to grow faster.

That’s one more thing.

‘Okay, that’s enough for the Skeleton Soldier.’

What’s important is what comes next.

Fafnir took a deep breath and thought.

‘It’s time to cook the main menu.’

Now it was their turn to challenge the creation of a homunculus.
