The Barbarian Became a Necromancer - The Barbarian Became a Necromancer chapter 49

049.

Not a single blade of grass grew on the grey-brown ground.

Only the tumbleweed was rolling around in the occasional blizzard.

All right. All right.

Soon a wagon passes over it.

I looked at the scenery outside from inside the carriage, which was shielded from the wind.

‘It’s filthy barren.’

Over the hills dusty with a sandstorm.

The panoramic view of the city, which began to be vaguely visible, seemed far from barrenness.

‘That place is the territory of Windor.’

Dungrid, a western mining town.

A city inhabited by wind heroes.

He had a record of defeating the darkness that Morgus had sown by himself without knowing anything about it.

‘At the time, I thought so and moved on, but he’s a monster too.’

The moment I fell into the darkness that unfolded like a different dimension, I couldn’t remember the law of destruction.

The power of establishing a solid territory was not something that could be broken simply by having high mental strength.

‘Brat, Windor, or the monster that broke it.’

Again, the purpose was simple.

What goes unnoticed by the hero.

Just as the wanderer Locke, I intended to covertly deal with it and escape.

If I get involved this time, well, I’ll accept it.

It means that the warlock hunt or the things I want to get are things that heroes will be interested in, so what can I do?

‘I’ll have to prepare an excuse to avoid it if we face it.’

While I was thinking about this and that, a sleeping Tom came into my eyes.

A young man who supports his younger sister.

Is it because he still has talent at such a young age?

The child rose to the rank of branch manager and was running around eagerly to find a place in the west.

‘He told me valuable information about the ruins he obtained.’

It was an abandoned mine.

In the past, it was a place used by dwarves to make weapons, but it was forced to close due to a curse from the demon king.

Dwarves who loved land and iron could not resist the cursed underground.

It was because at that time they were in a position to reject divine power and blessings.

‘So everyone died.’

Such was the curse of gloom and darkness.

It presents endless frustration and depression to those who stay underground.

His eyesight subtly deteriorates, and he soon becomes blind.

In that chaos, the dwarven underground kingdom collapsed.

‘The ruins were said to be a secret workshop of the dwarves.’

I don’t know why they set up a workshop in the mine, but there was a high possibility that there would be rare weapons or artifacts.

Even if they didn’t worship a god, they were a race that loved magic.

“Im here! Better guys! Take out your ID card!”

“Sueup, I forgot and fell asleep.”

Tom was awakened by the coachman’s cry.

Isn’t it too defenseless to be a wagon loaded with various foodstuffs and drinking water?

I don’t know what confidence is without an escort.

‘Ah, he’s an A-class mercenary.’

This is the stage before realizing the controversy.

Of course, even that much is strong.

It is because of the high level of handling the sword.

“Today will be a busy day. I have to screen the mercenaries to join, and I have to classify their level.”

“Have you checked the difficulty level of the ruins?”

“Ah, that… .”

Cold sweat ran down Tom’s temples.

You bastard, you only widened it, but you didn’t do anything.

‘Don’t help me with this.’

I thought for a moment with my arms crossed.

It’s enough to hunt only black magicians here and leave them out.

That was the plan at first, and Tom just asked for good information.

So it’s a situation where I can cheer for you to do well and go my own way… .

‘I have to supplement the artifacts.’

What was obtained from the ruins of Placidus is now only silent steps and aftershocks.

Although there is a reverse obedience obtained from Bratt recently, it was a one-time use.

“good.”

“yes?”

If you do this, you can’t throw away the opportunity that came to your ears.

I took out my identity card as I watched Tom put on a bewildered expression.

“Please guide me to the guild branch.”

“Low, Mr. Locke… .”

I am thrilled that you understood the meaning.

It’s still too early to be thrilled.

“I have something to suggest instead.”

“Hey, let’s listen!”

As we approach the entrance to the city, we hear soldiers shouting.

I’ll make a suggestion later, but for now, I’ll have to check the level of the Lordran Mercenary Guild.

***

“I see!”

He walks ahead and points to the building.

I asked the long game.

“Is it the building next door?”

“No, it’s on the left.”

oh left?

You’re talking about the building that’s all collapsing over there.

It looks like there are a lot of issues to solve.

“Shall we go in first?”

“Mmm.”

There is such a thing as a first impression.

Several elements are listed in my head the moment I see it.

In this case, I remembered what the capital, level of support, and power of the mercenary guild of Lordran were.

‘Do I even have to consult?’

It wasn’t something I hadn’t done.

Even in Aden Saga 1, there was a time when a department that had collapsed was raised up in the name of club revival.

It can be regarded as an extension of it.

However, if that happens, the time you have to spend here will be relatively long.

“Is it a little worse? I haven’t packed my things yet. Even if I made up my mind to do it soon, it’s hard because I’m busy with other preparations. hahahaha.”

Through Tom scratching the back of his head, he could see the interior scenery.

It’s a clean interior, but I could see that it was cluttered with various luggage.

A small training ground dimly visible through the window in the back door, and a wooden staircase leading up.

The central hall was attached to the kitchen, so it was cute and warm.

“brother!”

Footsteps could be heard from upstairs.

A blonde little girl who comes hard with her blonde hair.

There was no resemblance to Tom at all.

“Rico, were you sleeping?”

“Yeah, I woke up hearing my brother.”

The child clinging to him with a smile seemed to be Tom’s younger sister.

“You are cute.”

“It’s because I resemble my mother more than I do. I am like this because I resemble my father.”

“How is your brother?”

Rico, who is tilting his head, is carried on his back at once.

Tom sat down at the table with the child laughing suddenly.

“Shall we sit down and talk? As you can see, Rico is not feeling well.”

My eyes naturally went to the child’s leg.

His right leg, which hopped happily, was intact.

However, the left leg was stained black.

It seems that he has no sense, and he is drooping.

Only my thighs were colored, and it seemed that only the top of my knees could sense it.

“Locke, can I join you, Rico? I may not have even heard of it.”

“Does not matter.”

“Then wait a minute. I’ll bring you something to drink and something to freshen up.”

It’s a guild branch, but right now it’s only Tom.

When I was in the mood to talk, I laid out the things I had in mind.

“Can I look at the ledger first?”

“I’ll bring it right away.”

Tom entered through the door in the corner of his office and brought out his ledger.

“But why did you ask me to bring this?”

“Because it is necessary to prepare for the exploration of the ruins.”

I received the book and checked it carefully.

Thanks to the assistance of mental power, it is enough to scan it once.

Now I just had to substitute the numbers that came into my head and the funds needed to explore the ruins.

“Whoa.”

A sigh comes out of nowhere.

funds were sufficient.

The Lordran mercenary guild did not spare any investment.

However, Tom was a mercenary who lacked experience and knowledge to roll that capital.

‘Why did you give me the position of branch manager?’

I want to ask the guild leader.

But he’s not here.

There’s no way.

After presenting the path and having them follow it, they had no choice but to prepare for the warlock hunt.

“Can you just do as I say from now on?”

“Is it about guild management?”

“Yes, if you follow it properly, you will be able to recruit guild members while organizing an expedition to the ruins without difficulty.”

“I will listen. I can’t say I blindly follow it, but… . yes. Tell me please.”

Even so, he maintains his own backbone as the guild leader.

I laid out my plan to Tom, who became serious.

Criteria and test content for recruiting mercenaries.

Rules for efficiently rolling and distributing money, and links with inns that are good for receiving and receiving requests.

“Did you understand? The rest of the money should be spent on exploration equipment and hiring Pathfinders. As this is an underground exploration, recruiting a priesthood is the most important thing, so keep that in mind.”

“yes. yes… .”

Tom, who was frantically taking notes, tilted his head.

“I was surprised that everything was better than I had planned. Enough to use right away.”

that’s not natural

Clubs and mercenaries may have different intentions, but the way they operate is the same.

Recruit members and distribute operating funds efficiently.

The mercenary guild was the same.

That’s why it’s a no-nonsense piece of advice.

Pre-preparation to take care of my share ends with this.

“Look at this.”

As I gave advice, I held out the black stuff to Tom.

“A Proposal for the Proportion of Artifact Distribution in Historic Sites?”

“As I said before, it’s not just about helping.”

“Distributing the artifacts to be obtained in a ratio of 8 to 2? Guild side is 2, right?”

“The other treasure belongs to you. Because my purpose is only artifacts.”

“Um… .”

After thinking for a while, Tom made a decision.

“Could I make one adjustment to the contract?”

Even with an unexpected adjustment.

Naturally, I could listen to that much, so I made eye contact with Riko, who was staring at me from the side.

“Big man!”

Tom is the older brother and I am the uncle.

***

Night comes to Dungrid as well.

Reflected in the setting sun, the wasteland shimmered beautifully.

The lover on the terrace looking at the scene was like a painting.

“You know what? The scenery I see with you is the most special.”

“why?”

He gently brushed his light green hair.

The seomseomoksu soon crossed the nape of his neck and caressed his chest.

“Yeah, this is the only place in the city where you can see the horizon… Is it because you are by my side?”

“hahahaha, what is that?”

Windor, the man who turned to her teasing words, gently wrapped his arms around the woman’s shoulders.

“Why do you send out signals like that today? huh?”

“It’s a face I haven’t seen in 3 months. Do you mind looking at me? I’m always hot here.”

A woman caressing my stomach with her gentle hands.

Windor raised her eyebrows at her action.

“Ha, come here.”

“Kyaaak.”

Windor, who picks up and ties up a woman while listening to a well-decorated scream.

He gently tosses her onto the king-size bed and runs her hair through it.

“I know you won’t sleep well today.”

“Anyway, the words are always slick.”

“Oh, did you pass out first thing every day?”

“I don’t know… .”

The two of them trying to ignite the fire of love.

The fire between the two evolved faster than expected.

smart smart

“Windor-sama, this is an emergency.”

An emergency heard through the knocked door.

What this meant was simple.

Another thing happened to the mines.

“Whoa.”

To think that something happened again that made him vacate for three months.

Windor, who let go of his anger with a sigh, asked quietly.

“What is the damage status?”

“30 of the miners suffered minor or moderate injuries, and 12 were missing or killed.”

“Is the cause the same?”

“Iron dust was left behind when the violent vibrations disappeared.”

“… Same. Get ready.”

“under! I will prepare right away.”

It’s a chilled out atmosphere.

So Windor tried to get out of bed.

The woman grabbed his forearm.

“Can you not go?”

Eyes brimming with longing.

Windor tidied her hair.

“Catherine. I’ll be back soon.”

“Last time, it’s been 3 months already.”

“It will be different this time. And, it wouldn’t be possible without me. Because the lives of so many people who work for this city are at stake.”

“I know I will die if I don’t come back.”

“Trust me.”

Windor crossed hands with Katrin.

The rings on their ring fingers shimmered in the setting sun.

“Because it’s the head of the household.”

“Phi, you always spoke well.”

“So you don’t like it?”

Instead of answering with a slight tilt of the head.

Windor smiled contentedly and kissed her cheek.

As soon as he left the bed, his expression darkened.

“I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but I have to kill him this time. Don’t you know that if your tail is long, you’ll be stepped on?”

The wind blows in the quiet hallway.

Before I knew it, Windor had disappeared.
