Necro Master

Tournament

* * *

How long have you been asleep? I felt like I was asleep for quite a long time. Things like this happened, but when I woke up, I felt a little better.

There were skeletons around that kind of loyalty. I was summoning it in advance in case anything happened at night.

The loyalty woke up with a long yawn.

“Yawn……. ”

Then he turns to the Named Skeletons beside him.

“Good morning. ”

Good morning. I stayed close to him while he slept. Devon slams his teeth to protest the words of his loyalty.

Crap. Crap. Shut up.

His loyalty to Daphne's reaction said.

“Good morning? ”

Of course, I didn't think Devon had the right answer. The other skeletons were just standing there.

Shaolin, who had become a skeleton, also did not respond much. She had suddenly become a skeleton from a person. But there was nothing that loyalty could do.

I felt bitter but couldn't help it.

“Then let's go eat. ”

I was so hungry when I got up after relieving my fatigue. The loyalty stood up and left the room. Afterward, the skeletons follow with a rattling sound.

* * *

At present, there was all sorts of delicacies in front of the loyalty. Since all the food was free, I ordered everything I could think of. However, it did not take long to empty all the food. It was clear that the level also increased the camouflage.

A clean empty dish was stretched out by tapping on the belly. It's because I haven't felt bad about the satiety I felt in a long time.

I heard the system's voice towards that loyalty.

[Have you had a peaceful rest?]

The loyalty nods. Then the system explained.

[In 3 days, you will participate in the promotion.]

“Before the promotion?”

[You must compete with other challengers to advance to the next region.]

[Ascendance Battle allows Ascendance to only one of the 50 challengers.]

What will happen if you fall into Ascendance?

[If the upgrade fails, you will be assigned a resident somewhere.]

‘You're going to die. ’

If so, I had to be preoccupied.

‘By the way, compete with 50 challengers……. ’

The competition rate was fifty years old.

Then I wouldn't have been so relaxed here.

“You said you'd give me a mission when I came to the city. The mission won't be an escalation. ”

[Let me show you what you need to do.]

[Missions are given in consideration of your current situation.]

[Finish it before the promotion starts.]

[1. Win the Colosseum]

[Reward: Black Death]

[2. Complete the first mission to unlock]

[3. Complete the second mission to unlock]

[It is not a compulsory mission.]

[There will be no disruption to the schedule even if you don't perform the mission.]

That is, we can play here until the promotion starts.

‘But you can't do that. ’

As I came to Palam, I felt a bit disappointed. It was because the second and third gates had to be passed because of a pass that was untouched and could not be discarded.

Not bad, of course. I had to be comfortable, but it was also true that I had missed out on the benefits.

‘But here, you must take what you can. ’

Faithfulness has blinded the reward, even if it is not a compulsory mission.

‘But what is the Black Death? ’

What the hell is that? In other words, it is plague, but it is not just plague.

“System, what is the Black Death? ”

The system answered the question of loyalty. However, the answer was not good.

[Weapon.]

[Win the Colosseum for more information.]

[And get it as a reward.]

In the end, he said that he would not tell me if he did not win.

“How do I participate in the Colosseum? ”

[The next match starts in an hour and 42 minutes.]

[Do you want to register?]

“Yes, register me. ”

[You have marked the location of the Colosseum on the minimap.]

[If you do not arrive 30 minutes before the start of the match, you will be automatically disqualified.]

At the same time, the location of the Colosseum was displayed on one side of the palam.

‘Until then, is it free time? ’

I did not know how many people would participate.

‘Well, you'll know when the game starts. ’

Later things were later. Faithfulness decided to explore the city for the remaining time. I had a lot of items to sell. If I could buy the items I needed on the way, I would have to buy them.

However, I did not expect to buy and sell items. It is because I thought that the price breaks experienced at the camps of challengers would be the same here.

* * *

You're out of the inn. I could see people on the street, but there were very few. There were not even any people who were traveling together. Most of them were distant. Perhaps they are buying their own bodies.

‘Everyone be careful. ’

Whether or not, loyalty moved toward the destination. The place I was currently going to was a shop in Palam.

I didn't see any challengers trading goods on the way to the store. Soon I could see why. because it was dangerous.

There were many gravestones in the city. The tombstone that you see when you walk along the main road tells you what to watch out for in the city.

- Don't wander off. He's just stuck at the inn.

- ㅇ All robbed without knowing the rat or bird.

- Anybody see what killed me?

- I killed him. It was just a bunch of crap.

- I happened to see him and avenged him.

- Who else did you avenge?

I had to be careful. There was no law in the city itself.

‘I was worried about summoning the skeletons on purpose.... ’

It seemed like a good decision. Thanks to this, there was not a single challenger who moved near loyalty.

Even when I first entered the city, I thought differently. I thought it would be better not to make eye contact. But now, it seemed better to make sure that even if it caught your eye, you wouldn't have to deal with it.

I moved around with the skeletons without any commotion. Hell Hound stalks you in the form of a puppy, whether it's a good walk or not.

* * *

This was also an autonomous shop. The loyalty of reaching the store met the expected outcome.

“As expected, it's not worth the price. ”

Conversely, items that could be purchased in the store were very expensive.

‘However, it is not easy to deal with other challengers... …. ’

Then I had no choice. I decided to sell the items I had found so far.

“We should sell everything except one weapon just in case. ”

Due to this, loyalty put all of his weapons on the stand, except for the balcony.

Then the system came to light.

[700 karma total.]

[Do you want to sell?]

“Huh."

[Earned 700 Karma.]

[Karma Owns: 4,500]

There was a kind of armor, but loyalty sold everything. I don't think I need it much.

‘It's better to take off your armor and avoid getting hit with one. ’

And I liked selling items that I didn't think I needed.

‘It's not like the Spirit's Pouch can hold infinite items. ’

The loyalty of selling items came out of the shop. There was nothing more to do here. Then I wouldn't have had much time.

“Time to head to the Colosseum. ”

* * *

The Colosseum wasn't that big. Other challengers running as athletes have either already gone in and waited, or they have not encountered the other challengers on the way. There were not even spectators.

‘It's a dead end.’

Somehow it moved automatically as soon as it stepped into the entrance of the Colosseum.

[Let me take you to the player waiting room.]

The loyalty and skeletons were moved together into the athlete's waiting room. Are we going to use the player lounge separately? I don't see any other players around. There was only loyalty in a space about two rooms. However, loyalty was soon known to the number of people who participated in the tournament. And that number, not more than I thought.

[The match is played in a tournament way.]

[Number of players currently participating: 14]

[43 minutes to game start.]

At the same time, it became clear why people were less engaged.

[Once the match begins, it doesn't end until one of them is dead.]

[If you quit now, you don't have to participate in the game.]

[Do you want to give up the match?]

The sound of the system shakes my head. As long as I came here, I had no intention of turning back.

“I will not give up. ”

[Yes, sir.]

[Please wait until the match begins.]

Loyalty waited for the match to begin. There was nothing to do when I looked around the player waiting room. What was there were fluffy beds, dining tables, and all kinds of fruits on the dining table. It was no different from an inn or a player's waiting room.

How long have you been waiting? The time has finally come for the match to begin. It was a boring time to just wait without doing anything. However, after a long rest, time passed quickly.

[In a moment, the match begins.]

[Number of players currently participating: 16]

The games of the participants began simultaneously. I didn't have to wait for the other players to finish.

[I'm transferring you to Stadium 7.]

The hellhounds and skeletons, including the enthusiasm, were moved to stadium 7.

* * *

As expected, there was no audience at the summoned stadium. All I had was one challenger on the other side. However, I still can't see the opposing team. A huge wall stands between us.

Immediately before the duel, the system was informed.

[Stadium 7]

[Berserker VS Necromancer]

"Berserkers"?

It was a dreadful job, even by name.

In [3 seconds, the middle wall disappears.]

[Once the wall disappears, start fighting.]

Loyalty is nervous and prepared for battle. The Pokémon doesn't know what it's capable of.

‘But I've summoned Skeletons beforehand, so I can handle them. ’

The skeletons that were moved with loyalty were as follows:

[Skeleton Infantry: 5]

[Skeleton Wizard: 3]

[Dark Priest: 1]

[Skeleton Knight: 1]

[Total number of skeletons: 10]

Of course, it didn't end here. There was even a Hell Hound for combat personnel in the event of an emergency. Faithfulness told me that the battle was about to begin.

“Puppy. Grow up. ”

Then Hellhound returns to his original state, as faithful as he had said.

After all, the system has been alerted while preparing for battle. The time for battle has finally come.

[003]

[2]

[1]

[Wall disappears.]

[Start the battle.]

The wall disappears as the system finishes speaking. And you see the opposing challenger. The target shouts out loud as soon as the wall disappears.

“Kuhahaha! I'll slaughter you...!" ”

However, he soon had to be silent. It was because there was a herd of people who didn't think before.
