The Exiled Necromancer Wants To Create a Bone Dragon - The Exiled Necromancer Wants To Create a Bone Dragon chapter 48

48 – How to attack the South

The first thing Ed and the three of them did was build a forward base. Edman quickly rode the Skeleton Desert Lizard and looked around the paradise of monsters, but this time he came down south thinking of an ample schedule of about 3 days. So, materials that could be used as tents were also packed in subspace, and Hermona had the troops to work again.

The skeleton from Hermona’s subspace didn’t move beyond a human like Ed’s skeleton, but it had the advantage of having a long quantity and maximum command distance. Of course, all necromancers other than Ed had a long maximum command range, and Hermona did not focus on summoning so much, so compared to Ed, there was a lack of work, but there was no shortage of work.

– thump thump

Hearing Hermona’s command, the skeleton struck the tree several times with the sword he was holding and cut down the tree, and then Ed moved. Together with the two Skeleton Knights given by Hermona, the tree was trimmed in an instant, and another skeleton built a simple tree house by erecting pillars and building walls.

“What the hell… Necromancer…”

Arebizu, watching the entire process from a distance, was getting a little sick of it. I know that necromancers are dangerous beings who deal with the dead and do not believe in God, but until recently, I had forgotten that they were dangerous beings. Then, a few days ago, I saw Ed cut off Hunter’s limbs without hesitation and was reminded for the first time in a long time that he was a dangerous being.

And what the two necromancers were showing now was close to all-powerful. Since there was not just one skeleton that could replace parts that required human hands, but nearly twenty were moving at the same time, the speed of work was unimaginably fast. Wouldn’t it be comparable to the speed that some wizards specializing in architecture can show? Although the house’s completeness was low, considering that it was my first time building a house, the level of completeness was very high.

‘What should Hermona do?’

Glowyn continued to think about what to do with Hermona, who was in harmony with Ed. Glowyn received her information from the North, reporting Hermona’s arrival to the Information Guild Kala. When Ed was acting as the captain of the northern 7th guerrilla force as a special necromancer, he was reported to have the highest level of power among 2nd grade necromancers even though he was a 2nd grade necromancer because he couldn’t handle Hermona and Death Knight, who were his lieutenants.

Looking at the house being built now, Hermona holding the big frame and Ed adding details to make the house showed that the two of them fit well together. After talking lightly in Lessand before leaving for the monster paradise, I thought that she wasn’t a bad person like Ed, but she seemed to have a bit of madness too.

– bang bang bang

When the sound of hammering reverberated, the tree house was completed, where the four of them could escape the cold night. It was a little poor because the wood was not perfectly processed, but it was a very good house compared to the time it was made. Ed came out after checking inside and called Glowin and Arebijou, who were a little away.

“As I said before I came, basically the battle is going to be between me and Herr-senpai. Mr. Levy, please focus on protecting Mr. Glowin.”

“I will. Seeing the two of them build a house, I think it might be enough.”

Originally, I was planning to leave Glowyn in Les Sand like the first time I stayed in Les Sand, but I brought her because the Hunter Guild’s movement was unusual. If Hermona hadn’t joined, it would have been inconvenient to fight while protecting Glowyn, but now that Ed has a Skeleton Knight, he’s confident in protecting him.

“Then let’s take a look around slowly. The other day I only saw Heavy Rock Turtle and came back.”

When Ed put the Skeleton Knight into the subspace, Hermona also put all the skeletons into the subspace.

“Ed, was the heavy rock turtle strong? Is it worth a billion?”

“It’s true that it’s difficult to deal with, but I didn’t think it was strong.”

Hearing those words, Hermona wondered if she was really weak, but seeing Arebijou’s face, she remembered that Ed’s strong enemy was a Gigant-class monster, and he could see that Ed’s nonsense. You would be right in thinking that ordinary people are very tricky enemies to deal with.

“Is that so? Okay. Let’s go.”

Still, Hermona decided to skip it. If Ed wasn’t there, the strong Rock Turtle would be a problem, but Ed didn’t come to the monster’s paradise with only three skeletons like last time. With the Skeleton Knight he handed over to Ed, he was able to fully demonstrate the power that Ed could produce with his ‘own body’. The variable for Ed is the hot weather, but I thought I could overcome that much.

Four people walked slowly through the forest. I didn’t meet any other monsters in the forest except for the last time, when the forest pigs with developed senses felt a presence, they jumped into a hole dug in the ground. After slowly passing through the forest, a huge river came out, and nearby was full of rocks that Ed had broken down to build a house on the back of the Heavy Rock Turtle.

“Looks like the hunters have arrived.”

Although the number of rocks had decreased a little, there were still some marks and work tools that had been broken by a pickaxe on a large rock. The hunters seemed to have had quite a bit of fun, seeing things like paper packaging for storing food abandoned nearby.

“Does that rock make money?”

“It’s said to contain mana, so it’s used as an ingredient in making bowls.”

“Then should I put it in the subspace?”

“No. No matter how expensive it is, it’s not as good as the Desert Lizard I caught earlier. It’s just a small amount of pocket money. This time, I’ll fill it up.”

Hermona nodded at Ed’s words. The corpses of the four Desert Lizards you killed while escaping the sandstorm are well placed in the subspace. Hermona, who had heard that the corpse of the Desert Lizard, which was killed without much difficulty, cost 5 million energy, looked like a gold mine in the south.

“I think we’ll have to cross the river for now, so I’ll build a bridge.”

“It’ll be easier than building a house.”

Ed opened subspace and summoned the Skeleton Knight. He knocked down a large tree nearby, cut it in half, and then lifted the tree so he could reach the other side. Although it was completed very quickly compared to building a house, the fact that the Skeleton Knight was able to lift half a barrel of wood was actually abnormal. Hermona approached Glowin and Arebizu who were watching this and spoke.

“That’s what’s strange about him. Normal Skeleton Knights don’t have that much strength.”

“Ah. Hermona, you said it was the skeleton knight you were using, right?”

Hermona said while nodding her head slightly in response to Arebizou’s words.

“And don’t hold all necromancers to that standard. He’s a special guy.”

Seeing Hermona talking about this, Glowwin thought that the fact that Ed was a super-class necromancer would spread to the center in no time. The collar tried to hide information about Ed as much as possible, but since he had already had a saint from the Church of Truth as his guardian, there was no reason to hide it anymore.

‘It will be important what the two of them do from now on.’

Glowwin thought he should know that sooner than others.

“Let’s go. I made it roughly, but it’s sturdy.”

Ed, who stored the Skeleton Knight in the subspace, approached the three women and said. It was just a large tree split in half and placed, but the weight and width were quite wide. The four of them slowly stepped on a tree and crossed the river, where they could see that a monster was watching them all the time.

“It was strange to keep meeting only the Desert Lizard.”

Red eyes flashed in the forest and came out towards Ed and the others. It was a wolf with a green aura similar to a forest pig, but Ed had read about it in Southern Monster Ecology. Grass Dire Wolf, the moment the big-bodied guy rushed at him, Ed used a curse.

I immediately used the curse of exhaustion and lower stamina as soon as I came within range, and took advantage of the grass dire wolf’s movement slowing down a bit to hit the grass dire wolf’s head with a fist filled with mana.

-Kwasik!

The Gress Dire Wolf’s head hit the ground with the sound of its skull breaking, and Ed immediately stepped back and spoke to Arebizou.

“Mr. Levy, finish.”

“okay.”

Arebizu holding the sword stabbed the sword towards the heart of a typical dire wolf, and the creature, which had been squirming due to the shock it received from Ed, soon became limp.

“Ed, should I put that in subspace too?”

“I’m going to use it as a zombie. I can’t make it into a skeleton because I broke the skull.”

“Then take care of the next ones neatly.”

“I’m mainly focused on humanoid skeletons.”

At Hermona’s words, Ed opened the subspace while looking at the red eyes sparkling in the forest. When two Skeleton Knights, one head larger than a normal skeleton and with a solid skeleton and fully equipped with armor, appeared, Grass Dire Wolves began to flock like crazy.

“There are roughly 30 of them? There are a lot of them here?”

Hermona said after grasping the number of enemies rushing at her quickly. Unlike the two Necromancers who weren’t too taken aback by the current situation, Glowin, an ordinary person, didn’t fall when the Grass Dire Wolf group rushed at her.

“I wish I could hold out for a little while.”

Unlike Necromancers, who keep their distance from enemies and fight with summons, magic, curses, and poison, Ed, who was called a commander knight because he fought on the front line, jumped into the crowd of grass dire wolves with Skeleton Knights.
