Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

Chapter 2



Episode 2. Adrias Cromwell (2)

A tall nose and a dignified posture.

A girl who seems to radiate dignity just by being herself, not by being forced to make it up.

No, her beauty as a woman was just now in full bloom, so it was ambiguous to call her a girl.

At every step she took, her neat black hair fluttered and drew attention.

“This is Miss Diene. I heard you got a perfect score on the magic mechanics test this time?”

“uh. I also listen to the same lecture. It’s been 9 years since I got a perfect score. When I see it, I want to be human.”

“and! really? I also want to take the same class once. How is it that there is not a single part lacking in anything from looks to ability?”

“Is it just the looks and abilities? What about the background?”

The time when Diene paid no attention to the noise around her and moved forward with calm but confident steps.

Someone caught her eye.

At first, he thought he was seeing something wrong and tried to pass it by, but soon he realized that his eyes were not wrong and stopped.

‘Adrias Cromwell.’

The eldest son of Count Cromwell.

No, what do you call a count now?

Probably will be demoted soon.

There was no other reason for her looking at the eldest son of such a mean family.

His family owed a debt to hers.

That’s why we’ve met face to face many times since we were young, and we were quite close.

‘It was like that in my childhood when I didn’t know anything.’

The good times have passed and now it’s just the relationship between creditor and debtor.

After the death of the previous Earl Cromwell the year before, he showed a low attitude, ready to lick his feet whenever he saw her.

He was truly a worm-like man.

No ability, no talent, no effort.

Trash who is alive only because he was born and does not mind humiliating himself for a moment of peace.

I guess so… … .

‘Why?’

Something was out of the ordinary.

The unorganized hair and stupid looking face were the same as usual.

However, he wasn’t slouching as always, and his expression, which had always been gloomy, was hazy, as if he was filled with melancholy.

Of course, I’ve seen his worried expression a few times, but it’s definitely different from him now.

Suddenly, his eyes went to the book he was holding.

‘Conflicting understanding of nature and mana?’

Of course, this is a book I have already read.

However, it was not a book that such trash could understand.

It’s probably someone’s errand, or there’s some reason.

The Adrias she knew was such a man.

“hmm?”

As if he felt the gaze, he woke up from his thoughts and looked this way.

“… … .”

After some time passed, he lowered his head slightly and walked past.

… … Did you pass by?

Looking back as naturally as possible, he was really just on his way.

“swimming?”

An awkward groan escaped from her mouth.

Startled by her own voice, she hurriedly shut her mouth, but the fact that she made a sound hurt her pride.

‘Isn’t that Adrias?’

I thought I was a completely different person.

From afar, it seemed like a long ride, but the atmosphere was different when we met in person.

In the first place, did Adrias just look at him and say hello and pass by?

‘It’s rare.’

Rather than anger, curiosity and questions arose like a wave.

Obviously, when I saw it last month, the garbage bug was right.

What happened?

* * *

‘Diane Alven. Wow, it’s creepy.’

Seeing the gaze I still felt, I increased the speed of my steps.

I don’t know why he was looking at me, but I didn’t want to get involved.

Diene Alven.

The daughter of the Duke of Alven and one of the greatest magical geniuses.

Also, a character I’ve played at one time, and currently the playable character most closely related to Adrias, the owner of this body.

That means he’s the one most likely to kill me.

‘Still, seeing them alive and breathing like that gives me a new feeling.’

Due to the nature of the game, where the level of difficulty increases with characters that become boring as the rounds progress, high-spec characters like Diene Alven were for beginners.

I remember him as the 3rd character I chose, and although he was talented, he couldn’t ignore the strength of his family.

It was because the Duke of Alven was a family that boasted so much power that it was called one of the four pillars that supported the empire.

‘Come to think of it, I was also in debt over there.’

I was tormented by the sudden memory.

The shame and inferiority of this body was intensely conveyed.

But you have to make a clear distinction.

‘These are not my feelings.’

Adrias.

Even though he was a character who only appeared as a henchman, I was serious about the game to the extent that it would not be an exaggeration to say that I found out all the information about him that could be found in the game.

Although I don’t know the detailed settings, at least I couldn’t let it die like before.

‘Because I am Adrias now.’

I am Jinhwan Kim and I am Adrias.

Even though it took me close to a week to accept it, I have to do my best to survive even now.

And that first button was fixed.

‘characteristic.’

One of the reasons it took me so long to accept this reality.

This place was real, but mixed with game-like abilities.

To be precise, it seemed that only I had such ability.

―Ding!

[There are attributes that have not been selected.]

This screen is proof of that.

Maybe if it wasn’t for this, I might have adapted a little faster.

Aside from the place or the people around you, when a game-like window opens in front of you, of course you think it’s a dream.

Although I’m used to it now, at first I thought I was crazy.

I closed the game window and expanded my info.

[Adrias Cromwell]

―Human

―Mana: 1581

―Attributes: Dual Core

―Talent: Dark Magic Spirit Series (Phantom Jae) Elemental Magic Water Series (Dunjae)

―Skill: Black Magic Details > > Elemental Magic Details > >

It’s awful .

First of all, the amount of mana.

As for the amount of mana, unless you have a talent related to mana, that level is usually normal.

But normally you can’t survive in this world.

All the characters I’ve raised so far had at least one talent related to mana.

‘How did you become a wizard?’

It is difficult to become a wizard unless you have mana talent in the first place.

If a guy with no talent wants to become a wizard, he’s going to lose a lot of money.

… … Is that why the family went bankrupt?

Let’s skip this for now, and then the characteristics.

One is given randomly at the start of the game.

Of course, there were traits that were so good that there was no problem living on just one, starting with traits like garbage.

In the first place, it was divided into four grades, Normal, Rare, Epic, and Unique, but there was no choice but to have good and bad.

The problem is that it’s a characteristic that came out like that… … .

‘Dual core.’

Characteristics are random, so when you start a new game, you create and delete characters countless times.

aka lysema.

Of course, the top-tier unique characteristics don’t come out, but even the epics below it are amazing.

In the game, it started when good characteristics came out like that, but in real life, I couldn’t even use that kind of trick.

[Dual Core]

―Epic

―There are two mana stores.

―The possibility of a magic swordsman is opened.

Characteristics of epic ranks.

Of course, if you look at the rank, it’s the ultimate king-class characteristic.

And how romantic it is to be a magician.

‘It’s bullshit.’

His legs were torn off while chasing romance, and he died dozens of times.

Didn’t I try?

I only watched the ending 12 times.

If you didn’t dig just one well, you could never break it.

Resources and time were limited, and the ability to grow was twice as strong, so the speed of becoming stronger was bound to slow down.

In addition, this is not a game, but reality.

From what I’ve learned over the past few days, it’s still in the past when the game starts.

Although the grace period for the crisis has been extended, the important thing is that this place is reality.

‘No, rather, since it’s real, should I raise it as a job character?’

“ha.”

I really couldn’t help but sigh.

Even in the game, there was never a no-death clear.

Even with characters much better than Adrias, how on earth am I supposed to survive without Nodes?

If it was a game, it would have been possible to make the decision to sell only one well, whether it died or not, but if the goal was survival, the dual-core characteristics would not be too bad.

For me right now, clearing the game isn’t my goal, it’s survival.

In the end, the traits were left like gyereuk, and when I saw the talent underneath, there was nothing more to say about this place.

To be honest, I didn’t even want to see it.

‘You have a mischievous talent, yes. But is that even a general talent?’

A-level talents just have two letters of ‘magic’ written on them.

Or ‘swordsmanship’.

It’s rather bad if the content is long like that.

It’s just that you have talent in that field.

But even that, I’m a bumjae.

In particular, in the case of dull jae, rather than nothing, it gives only the opposite effect.

If the average person is 100, Dunjae means 70 to 80.

‘The water magic is called Jembyeong.’

I realized here

It seems like the world is crazy because it wants to kill me.

Perhaps the reason Adrias died so many times in the early game was because of this trivial ability.

Lastly, skill was an extension of talent.

Skill proficiency and level could be increased quickly only if you had excellent talent, but without talent, it was a magic skill that you couldn’t do even if you tried hard.

―Black Magic: Basic Necromancer (3/100) 〉〉 Skeleton Summon LV1

―Elemental Magic: Beginner Ground (2/100) 〉〉 Greece LV6 Rock Spear LV3 Earth Shield LV5

Academy 3rd year subject, beginner level is surprising Even the only elemental type of magic is going crazy and running wild.

Knowing that in the 5th year, in order to graduate, you must show magical achievements to enter the Mage Tower, this guy’s future was obvious.

Oh, it wasn’t this guy, it was me.

In the end, there was only one thing left for me.

―Ding!

[There are unselected attributes.]

Selected attributes.

Out of all the gameplay, I’ve never been able to pick and choose a talent on my own.

This game also has elements of a roguelike, so even when you defeat a mid-boss or set an achievement, you can sometimes get a characteristic, but it’s all random.

‘I have to choose now to survive.’

Back in my dorm room, I put my book down and sat down in my chair.

And when the phrase that appeared in front of me expressed a positive meaning, the phrase changed.

[Please select the trait you want to have.]

Hundreds of traits were lined up in front of my eyes.

I carefully examined the characteristics on the list.

First of all, I filtered out all the characteristics of normal and rare grades.

‘Did they have these characteristics?’

I was proud to have seen all the tolerable characteristics, but there were a lot of things that I had never discovered before in Epic or Unique.

In particular, unique characteristics are characteristics that cannot be obtained even by restarting the game, so all but two or three were new.

And finally, one characteristic that caught my attention strongly stood out.

“This… … .”

Unknowingly, the thought came out of my mouth.

And I thought about it for a while.

What will be the best way for me to survive?

Is this really the best?

What resources and time do I have?

how is the situation

“Whoa.”

It was difficult to make a decision because it was a matter of life and death.

Already in front of me was a stack of all kinds of papers on which I wrote down notes while I was thinking.

The conclusion from that… … .

‘After all, I’m a necromancer. This is undeniable. Even if you don’t use it, you can’t get rid of what you’ve learned.’

Then you have no choice but to use it.

if you don’t hear

Only when life is really in danger.

Moreover, a necromancer is an all-weather monster that is more powerful than any wizard as long as he grows up safely.

So in the game, he was vicious enough to find and kill the necromancer first in every play.

‘One of them is this guy’s teacher… … . for a moment.’

I hurriedly checked the calendar.

“It’s late.”

Adrias’s memory blooms in a lump.

In the memories that came to my mind now, it was clear that I had an appointment with him last night.

It was difficult.

won’t die

… … maybe.

I immediately put on the clothes I had taken off and got ready to go out.

I have to go find it now or I will really die.

‘Previously… … .’

I stopped worrying and chose the trait I had in mind.

It’s not like thinking about it for a few more days to get an answer, so I’d rather get the traits and use them sooner rather than later.

Now that you’ve chosen your talents, the goal is to plan well and survive as long as possible.

And the next button for that goal will probably be where you are going now.

I will definitely survive this damn situation.
