Absolute Necromancer Chapter 169

Absolute Necromancer Chapter 169

Since eting Goldrich, ti has passed quickly.

One day, two days, three days.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Jinhyeok and his group gathered in front of the Gold Rich workshop after completing all preparations.

“I can’t do it because I’m old…Please go downstream.”

“You have nothing to worry about. In the first place, Ha-Ryu is just a single climber who doesn’t need anyone to protect him.”

“…I see, I still ask. “Because he’s still just a child to .”

“…Of course.”

Muyoung and lton were standing in front of the Gold Rich workshop to see them off.

Mu-young was sincerely disappointed that he could not go with him, but he could not take her to a place that was no different from a battlefield.

“kid.”

“It’s not a kid, it’s Cha Jinhyuk, old man.”

“Damn it, you’re a little kid to . “The guy who couldn’t even hold a hamr once is now confronting his teacher.”

And lton also called Cha Jin-hyuk, who was leaving, and left a warning to him.

Before he knew it, he recognized Jinhyeok as his disciple and called himself his teacher. His warning was simple.

“Don’t fall behind.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t die even if you make a sacrifice.”

“Okay, that’s enough. “Get out now!”

lton, who was smiling happily as if he liked the answer that he would never die, soon ca to his senses and scread.

Jinhyeok clicked his tongue and said goodbye to them as he changed from mont to mont.

“I’ll co back and show you the more evolved Manbyun Spiritual Energy.”

“Sniff, don’t look forward to it.”

A growing weapon.

Since it was unclear how much more he would grow in this battle, lton also looked forward to seeing the evolved Manbyeon Spirit Prototype.

Jinhyeok took a step forward as he saw them waving their hands and saying goodbye.

“You guys go to Musou first. Go and join Choi Kyung-hoon. “I have sowhere to stop by.”

“Okay, you have to co on ti.”

“I know. Miho, don’t separate from your sister.”

“yes! “Oppa, co quickly!”

“Okay, okay, I understand.”

Miho seed quite happy a few days ago after hearing that she was going to her hotown downstream.

Because Miho loved it so much that she couldn’t bear to say that it was a ruin, Jinhyeok nodded at Miho’s words, jumping up and down and urging him to co quickly, and headed towards the Gold Rich Alchemy Workshop.

“I don’t know if you made all the items Alchemy asked for.”

Alchemy.

I was going to pick up the items I had asked for from a woman nad Christina Rothschild.

* * *

“Alchemy.”

“…Ugh! what…what? “Why did you just co in without knocking?”

“How many tis do you think I knocked? “You didn’t hear it.”

“ah…cri…sorry! my…When I concentrate, I can’t hear the surrounding sounds…Hehe, so what’s going on?”

Gold Rich Alchemy Workshop.

As is typical for places nad Gold Rich, the alchemy workshop was also amazing.

It was safe to say that the place was well-appointed with the best equipnt, but there was currently only one alchemist.

Of course, that one person was Alchemy.

No matter how many tis he knocked, there was no response, so Jinhyuk nodded and said to Alchemy’s question, which showed a variety of responses as soon as he opened the door.

“What about the items I asked for three days ago?”

“Ah, in that case it was already made! Here you are. These are the various potions you ntioned. “We made it to the highest level so as not to be ashad of the na Alchemy, so even if your arm is about to be cut off, you can still attach it, right?”

“okay? Not bad. Then let’s go.”

Ahead of the battle with the Four Emperors, various potions that will be used in the war against them.

Jinhyeok, who had requested them, was satisfied with Alchemy’s confident answer and dragged them into subspace.

Then, just as I was about to get up and leave the workshop-

“…But are you really trying to clash with the Four Emperors? “I don’t think they have a funny temper.”

Alchemy’s voice filled with fear was heard.

Although she was always innocent, she was a genius.

This ans that in basic things like mory, he is better than most people.

Therefore, she had mories of being chased by the Four Emperors.

Jinhyuk quietly watched Alchemy tremble like an aspen in fear.

and-

Tub-

He placed his hand on Alchemy’s shoulder.

“…Kyaaaak-!”

A strange scream was heard, but Jinhyuk didn’t care.

“What strange things are you spewing out? Well, they are dangerous.”

“that…Right? therefore…!”

“So is there sothing that runs away if you avoid it?”

“…yes?”

The answer that ca back was Alchemy’s stupid answer.

Things change.

Avoiding ensures the present.

But what about the future?

‘…You hide forever, you’re chased, and if sothing goes wrong even once…You’ll die, right?’

In a situation where she decided to run away, all Alchemy could do was repeat the sa thing she had chosen.

The end will be death.

But what if you confront them?

“Escape ultimately leads to one path, but the enemy divides into two paths.”

“….”

“death. It’s like running away. However, it’s a bit different to be able to screw them up even just a little bit. And another way….”

“You’re driving them out. really…It’s a much lower probability than the thread passing through the needle.”

“Yeah, you’re right. Die or be killed. The tower is a world that operates according to those laws. It just moved from ordinary climbers to the Four Emperors.”

“…Can I do that too?”

After hearing everything, Alchemy asked with a trembling but determined face.

He asks if he, like Jinhyeok, can fight against the Four Emperors like the others.

In response to Alchemy’s question, Jinhyuk opened the door to the workshop and gave a short answer.

“You are already confronting them. These potions. “These will be very effective in killing the Four Emperors you will encounter in the goblin village.”

“…!!!”

It’s not a question of whether you can do that.

It was already doing that.

“You are a guild mber of ‘Yeokcheon’. From the ti you joined here, you were already hostile and opposing them. so…If you just make up your mind, you can be more completely hostile.”

“…Once this is over, I’ll make you even greater potions.”

Jinhyuk said with a grin as he looked at Alchemy’s face, which was looking at him with both fists clenched and a determined expression.

“I’m looking forward to it.”

“…yes!”

It was a short statent, but Alchemy could not hide her happier heart than ever.

He who was only running away suddenly found himself causing trouble to those who made him run away.

Alchemy was very happy that she belonged to ‘Yeokcheon’, a guild that put the Four Emperors in ‘danger’ beyond the trouble she had caused.

thud-

As soon as Jinhyuk left, the heavy workshop door closed and Alchemy, left alone, picked up the reagent flask and muttered.

“I said it was a homunculus.”

Homunculus.

The second thing Jinhyuk wanted from Alchemy.

It was a homunculus that no one had ever created before, but Alchemy gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

“I can make this much for soone who believes in . hmm! “No way!”

Sothing no one has ever done.

A path no one has walked before.

However, Alchemy was a descendant of the Rothschild family who made the impossible possible and was the one who inherited the blood of their ancestors the most.

Like her ancestors in the past, she is ready to make the impossible possible.

An interdiate point before reaching the Philosopher’s Stone.

For Alchemy, that was the creation of a homunculus.

“Wait! “It’s an all-nighter today!”

Stimulant drinks began to pile up on Alchemy’s table.

In order to help Jinhyeok and his colleagues who were risking their lives in the goblin village, she first began practicing alchemy of her own volition at the Gold Rich Alchemy Workshop.

* * *

After parting ways with Alchemy, Jinhyuk contacted the rest of his colleagues at Musou and imdiately went to the ‘boundary’ on the 100th floor.

“There are a lot of people hunting.”

“Anyway, as we get to where we’re going, it’ll be hard for people to see us, so it won’t really matter.”

“…I’m a little excited, but also nervous.”

Goblin village.

Ha-Ryu took a deep breath as he walked the familiar path leading there.

It’s definitely been a long ti since I’ve been to a village, but I saw it because I knew it no longer existed in this tower.

Pat pat-

He gently stroked the downcast black hair of Ha-Ryu.

Ha-Ryu raised his head and looked up at Jin-Hyeok with a slightly surprised face at the sudden caress.

“…Brother?”

“don’t worry. Even though it is a ruin now, it will soday be rebuilt in the way you rember. “That is also why we are going now.”

“…Yes, that’s right. “The reason I’m going today is to investigate the truth and investigate the connection between the Four Emperors there and the destruction of the goblin village.”

“Yes, exactly as you said. However, if you just look at it now, their connection seems certain without any need for investigation.”

Jinhyeok knows that what he had suspected since he first t Ha-ryu has long since beco almost an established fact.

‘Four Emperors. They attacked the goblin village and destroyed it in order to capture the downstream. This is almost certain. And what they are waiting for in the village…It is clear that they are aiming downstream to find the village again soday.’

And young Ha-ryu always had a longing for the village, and even if Jin-hyuk wasn’t there, he might have sohow survived and reached the 100th floor.

Perhaps because Jinhyeok wasn’t there, he didn’t encounter anything like a Kobold Lord, so he may have climbed the tower more easily.

but-

‘…The downstream is probably dead.’

That ant death downstream.

If he hadn’t t , if he hadn’t walked a more dangerous path together, if Haru hadn’t joined Yeokcheon and found out that they were hiding in the goblin village –

Haryu would have headed to the village alone, and it was clear that he would have been ‘cut in the bud’ by the Four Emperors who were waiting there.

“ too! “Please pet too!”

When Jinhyuk’s face hardened as he imagined the terrible things that would have happened if he had separated from her.

When he saw Miho, who was quietly hopping next to him, stroking Ha-Ryu’s head, he pushed his head towards Jin-Hyuk.

Jinhyuk barely smiled at Miho’s appearance and raised his hand to stroke Miho’s head.

“Okay, that’s enough now, right?”

Pat pat-

The sight of Jinhyuk gently stroking her was like a natural babysitter, but young Miho just had a pleasant smile on her face, pricked her ears, and trembled.

“You’re like a babysitter.”

“…shut up.”

“It’s okay to say harsh things in front of a child.”

“You beat up a kid like that.”

“…Because it was sparring!”

Choi Kyeong-hoon was not one to leave Jinhyeok, who was the babysitter for Ha-ryu and Miho, alone.

They imdiately started a fight, but it made no sense for Choi Kyung-hoon, who had beaten them up while sparring, to beat Jin-hyuk verbally.

But the commotion didn’t last long.

“You’ve arrived.”

“Ahhh…!!!”

A Balkan horse walking beside the river.

At the sa ti, Ha-ryu knelt down in the grass and began to cry loudly, making a groaning noise.

“…Tsk.”

“…I think we need a harsher word than ‘ruin.’”

The fences, which must have been built to indicate that soone had lived there or to worry about intruders, were lying in disrepair and ruined, and the sight seen beyond the fence was worse than ruins.

The sight of a village filled with the remains of ruined houses and black blood stains impressed even Jinhyeok and Choi Gyeonghoon, who had experienced many hardships before their deaths.

It can be said to be quite clean now, but the image of the village when it was attacked was so vivid that it made feel nauseous.

“Huh…”

“…Wooaeang, onni, don’t cry-”

“…Let’s rest for a while and then enter the village.”

Now, seeing Ha-Ryu’s head stuck in the grass and shaking, Jin-Hyeok sat down around Ha-Ryu, even though it wasn’t difficult at all.

Jinhyuk and the others had to smile with bitterness as they watched Miho cry next to Ha-ryu, who was lying face down.
