Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 14:


 

Chapter 14 – Dungeon’s Necromancer

“Ok . Let’s go, my minions . ”

Pah-pahk, pahk!

At Woojin’s call, the 4 corpses of the goblin exploded, and the Skeleton Soldiers was summoned .

“Ggeegeek . ”

“Keekeekee . ”

The goblins yelled like surprised monkeys, and the Skeleton Soldier’s unique playful sound was also heard . In the middle, Woojin threw away his light club then he took out the claw hammer from his inventory .

The hammer had enough weight and destructive ability for his purpose .  Until he could acquire a proper weapon, he had no choice, but to store it in his inventory for later use .

“Well, let’s do this . ”

Woojin started running, and the Skeleton Soldiers ran forward to open a path for their general . The Skeleton Soldiers pressed into the goblins . The hobgoblin was taken aback, and it started to give out a hurried command . The goblins tried to cut off Woojin, but their heads exploded from the claw hammer .

“Keekeekeee . ”

As soon goblins became dead corpses, Skeleton Soldiers exploded  forth from them . Woojin had used a decent amount of Skill Points, so the Skeleton Soldiers could exhibit physical strength comparable to a low ranked Roused .

Moreover, they weren’t easily killed .  In a flash, he had 14 creatures, which was the limit of his control . Woojin held up the claw hammer, which was soaked in goblin’s blood, towards the shocked hobgoblin .

The bastard’s cane was letting out a crackling sound, and one could see electricity coalesce at the end . His electric attack’s cool time had probably ended .

Woojin used the sharp end of the claw hammer to ram it into hobgoblin’s head .

Kwa-jahk . Pshhhh .

It pierced through the hobgoblin’s skull, and the electricity charged at the end of the cane dissipated before it could be shot .

“Whew . This is great for gathering points . It’s best to hunt a group of monsters . ”

Each goblin gave him 2 Achievement points . The hobgoblin gave an astounding 5 points . This was only a 2 star Dungeon, so he could only guess how many points he could get at a high tiered Dungeon .

He thought about the Magic Scrolls being sold in his Point Store . It seemed it was only a matter of time before he was restored to the heights he had reached at the Alphen Planet .

The Exp was also pretty good, so he leveled up once .

“Party play doesn’t suit my style . ”

He had Skeleton Soldiers, who could tank in front of him, so he just needed an attack he could deal damage from the back . He’ll be able to learn the Skills once he leveled up a little bit more .

He had passively participated in the party play, so the number of monsters Woojin attacked was low . It slowed him down from earning Exp and Achievement Points .

Woojin activated his Search Magic as he looked at the fallen goblins . He didn’t have go through the hassle of searching all the goblin corpses to find the Blood stones .

The Seach Magic illuminated any items that possessed Mana .  Woojin saw a light leaking out of the fallen hobgoblin’s possession, so he searched through it .

“Uh? It’s a Magic Scroll . ”

Woojin looked at the Magic Scroll, but he had no way of knowing what kind of magic it was .

“I have to learn Identification Magic anyways . I’ll just use this as an opportunity to buy it . ”

Woojin pulled up his Point Store, then he used 20 Achievement Points to learn the ‘Identification’ magic . He could use 1 star disposable item called Identification Scroll, but he decided to learn how to use this magic . There was no downside since he would be using this magic often .

——————————-
<Identification>

The hidden information of the item will be known to you .
The failure rate decreases as your Intelligence increases .

Magic Consumption : 1
——————————–

As soon as Woojin learned the magic, he casted Identification on the Magic Scroll .

———————————
<Electric Shock>

An electric attack can be sent towards a target .

Magic Consumption : 1 Latency Time : 20
——————————–

“Ho oh . This is what the **** was using . ”

Woojin searched through his Point Store, and he found the price of the Electric Shock scroll . It was priced at 100 Achievement Points .
With 30 points, he could buy low ranked elemental magic where he could create a flame or produce water .

The electric attack was more useful as an attack magic, so he understood why it was 3 times more expensive than the others .

“It’s still a middling price . ”

He could earn the points if he defeat 50 goblins . If he thought about how fast he dispatched the goblins, it didn’t look to be that expensive . However, if he was to buy it, he thought it wasn’t cheap either .

It wasn’t something he needed right now, so he put the Magic Scroll away . Then he excavated the blood stones from the goblin’s heads as it continued to emit a light .

“Ooh ooh ooh . ”

“Huh?”

Woojin, who was excavating the blood stones, looked around his surrounding when he heard the moan . His face had stiffened, but no monster had appeared .  Woojin was alert as he looked around, and his eyes met Sunggoo’s pain filled eyes .

His eyes were moving up and down in agony .  It seemed he had regained consciousness . His face was grimacing as if he was still in pain .

Woojin approached him, and he squatted down next to him . It seemed effects of the Electric Shock’s hadn’t disappeared yet .  Sunggoo forced words out with his stiff tongue .

“H, help m… . ”

“How much did you see?”

Woojin cut off Sunggoo as he asked a question .  Sunggoo looked up with a pleading expression, but Woojin’s face was indifferent .

Woojin had seen countless number of people die . This included comrades, and enemies he had met . Moreover, he had also seen innocent fallen souls being stolen .

“Ah, I don’t care . ”

This wasn’t Alphen Planet . He didn’t really need to kill Sunggoo . He wasn’t a spy from a hostile country, so silencing him wasn’t a necessity .

“P . . please save me . ”

He was slowly gaining control of his tonue, so Sunggoo’s words became clearer . Sunggoo was someone who had the ability to make fireballs .  He was someone who dealt in magic, so he was somewhat resistant to magic .

If he was a civilian and not a Roused, he would already be dead .  However, if he was left here, then he’ll surely be kill by the monsters downstairs .

“What will you do for me if I save you?”

“I’ll keep my mouth shut . ”

“About what?”

“The fact that big brother is a Rank D Roused . ”

Woojin smirked at Sunggoo’s words .  It seemed one had to be a Rank D Roused to easily defeat a hobgoblin and a couple dozen goblins .

Still, he didn’t really care if his story was spread .  Woojin wasn’t interested in such things .

“How much are you willing to give me?”

“What?”

Is this how one felt when one couldn’t say anything from being too flustered? Hong-songgoo didn’t know how he should answer the question, so he hesitated .

“If I leave you here, then you’ll probably become like him?”

Woojin pointed towards the **** corpse of Jongchul .  He had been beaten by the goblin’s club in numerous locations, so he was a gruesome sight to behold .

“I…I’ll give it to you . ”

If he could live, then how could the money be a problem?  He’ll take out his entire savings if he was able to live .  Money was something he could earn more as he increased in the Roused ranks .

“How…how much do you want?”

At Sunggoo’s word, Woojin unfurled **** .  Sunggoo was surprised, and he gritted his teeth .
‘If it’s 2 thousand then it is well worth my life . ’ (TLN:2천만원 around $18,000)

He’ll be spending all the money he had saved, but it didn’t matter . He had just started his life as a Roused, so he’ll make much more in the future .

“I understand . ”

Woojin smiled in satisfaction at Sunggoo’s reply .

‘If its 2 hundred then I’ll have enough entrance fee for Solo Play . ’ (TLN: ~$1,800)

This was his 3rd day back .
Roused Kang-woojin was still naive .
