Necromancer.
A special class also known as a spirit summoner or death mage.
They generally make contracts with monsters called spirits or undead. If their abilities are broad enough, they sometimes contract with special and powerful monsters like Death Knights, Liches, and even Vampires.
As for domestic Holders with such power...
The former master of the
In fact, until the Villain Cleanup Operation, his abilities were shrouded in mystery, so it wasn’t well known that he was a spirit summoner.
But during the operation, with the undead legion that filled the island and his ability to command them, even showing near-perfect mastery of [Order of Fusion], the academic world evaluated him as ‘at least in terms of skill, he was the top in the country’.
‘Starting with the Corpse Commander rune.’
The [Corpse Commander] rune, which I now possess.
This rune increases ability when commanding multiple units and removes the limit on the number of ‘spirits’ that can be contracted.
As long as there’s enough magical power to maintain the contracts, one can control tens or hundreds of spirits.
In the past, Hwang Dong-yeon made this rune his main rune, showing the might to control legion-level undead numbers.
Although his battle time was very short, and he ended up losing Bone to me and getting defeated by the allied forces...
Anyway, he was evaluated as the best necromancer in the country because he showed such overwhelming power.
‘...Though I can’t use it properly.’
Unfortunately, I can’t use this rune properly.
The [Corpse Commander] rune itself shows great effect when contracted with ‘spirits’.
But currently, I don’t have a single contracted spirit.
Originally, I had a temporary contract with Bone Dragon, but even that changed when this guy awakened as Tyrbon, transforming into a ‘complete sub-dragon beyond a spirit’, so it went back to zero.
Of course, that doesn’t mean I have no thoughts of spirit contracts at all.
After all, the [The Promise Bound by Dragon] rune is a legendary contract rune that enables taming, elemental, and spirit contracts, and with the [Corpse Commander] rune, there’s no limit to spirit contracts.
If I could make contracts, undead would clearly be a great help to my Holder forces.
‘...If contracts were possible, that is.’
Just because contracts are possible doesn’t mean they all lead to execution.
Contracts are ultimately formed when both the contractor and the Holder, me, agree.
Even if I want to make spirits my contractors, if they refuse, the contract ends in failure.
And the undead I encountered in
Almost all of them refused to contract with me.
‘Too high a recovery score is also a problem.’
Unlike when contracting with Bone...
My current Recovery score has become too high.
Without possessing [Dark Covenant] or evil-aligned god-tier runes, if the divine power is high, spirits will unconditionally judge this as an enemy and refuse contracts.
Basically, divine power itself tends to have light attributes unless tainted by darkness, and even the divine sword I’m using now has such tendencies.
So after entering the dungeon, I couldn’t even get a glimpse of contracts with spirits.
“All the undead appearing in this maze are contracted spirits. As the Oath-Bearer wanders through the maze, a necromancer hidden in the ground continuously summons them.”
Unlike me, a mage who has mass contracts with spirits.
As assured the existence of such a necromancer, he explained the current situation to me.
I rubbed my chin, pondering, and asked.
“So there’s only one necromancer?”
“That’s what we’ve gathered so far.”
“One person handles this many undead?”
The number of undead that Jaten and I hunted while wandering through the maze exceeds 100.
It was hard to believe that someone had contracted with so many, but As nodded with a confident face.
“You know the method well too.”
“Ah.”
[Corpse Commander].
The rune that removes the limit on the number of spirits that can be contracted.
It seemed this necromancer also possessed that rune.
“Since the Oath-Bearer finished hunting in such a short time, the magic consumption for maintaining summons wouldn’t have been large either.”
And the assumption that not much magical power would have been needed for maintenance because I went around sweeping away the undead enthusiastically.
I laughed dryly at that.
Grrrr-.
Crack- Crackle-!!
Stepping over the corpses of the undead that had already been eliminated, other undead are summoned.
Too many to count at a glance.
Enough to immediately block my entire view.
It would be fine to move with Jaten like before, but now that I had summoned As, there was a better method.
“Jaten, go in! And As!”
“I’m ready!”
As, showing excellent sense in battle befitting a former dragon’s subordinate.
He already knew what I was thinking.
“New Wave!”
The [New Wave] skill of [Swirling Tidal Wave] unfolds.
A skill I had already used once.
Of course, this time it’s As’s more powerful skill.
Whoosh, whoooosh-!!
Crash-!!
A huge wave once again engulfs the maze.
Water pouring from the right and water penetrating from the left.
All combined, it looks like it would form a sea...
A vast flood occurs.
As is a mage with unparalleled skill in water attributes, and his rune level and magical power handling are on a level that’s hard to compare with mine.
Naturally, even with the same [New Wave] skill, the effect was on a different dimension.
“C-crazy... What is all this...!!”
The necromancer, who had already tasted As water attribute magic attack once before, watched this scene trembling as if experiencing PTSD.
That large quantity is helplessly split.
The undead are swept away by the rapidly formed torrent, and as their movements are restricted, the advantage of numbers disappears.
And this was the real strength of [New Wave].
It strikes the enemy as a water attribute magic attack, but the real purpose of the skill is to completely break down the structure of the area by being cast over a wide range.
This is why I had unsummoned Jaten earlier, who would have difficulty performing in water.
“As!”
-I’m ready this time too, Oath-Bearer!
Grooooar-!!
Along with the shout in a changed form of voice...
A huge turtle appeared on the battlefield.
The release of [Polymorph].
And a form of As that I’m much more familiar with.
It was the majesty of the sea dragon, Aspidochelone.
“Hup...!!”
I immediately stood on As’s shell and looked ahead.
The target is the necromancer.
The time is until all the water from [New Wave] drains away.
Grrrr-!!
Crack- Crackle-.
Although the undead who had regained their balance by then approached to block us....
‘As, let’s depart.’
-As the great being and Oath-Bearer wish.
For As, who is a [Transport Expert].
This level of obstacle course was a piece of cake.
