Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 91:
Chapter 91 - Heading Towards the End (4)
‘What did I just do?’
Lee-sahngho became surprised after he entered the Dungeon .
He belatedly realized what he had done . He felt a rush of regret, but it was too late to turn back now . After the barrier formed, he wouldn't be able to just walk back out .
The only way was to clear the Dungeon, and find the Return Stone .
[No . If you accept my offer, you can get out of here easily . ]
“W . . . who are you?”
[Koo-koo-kook . ]
The laughter rang inside his head, and it gave Lee-sahngho the shivers .
[If you want power, then come to me . ]
Jeeeeeng .
In front of Lee-sahngho's eyes, a red portal was formed .
‘It formed even though I hadn't killed all the basic monsters?’
The portal that gave access to the true high rank Dungeon appeared only when all the monsters inside the subway station was killed . However, as soon as he entered the Dungeon, the portal had formed .
To be precise, the mysterious voice had created it .
Unless Lee-sahngho was an idiot it was hard not to notice what had happened .
‘This being is capable of controlling the Dungeon . ’
He had no idea, who this was .
He wasn’t sure if this being was a god, devil or an alien from outer space . However, he knew this being could control the Dungeon, and he had no idea why he was called here .
The only thing he was sure about was the fact that he had no choice, but to pass through the portal .
He erased any thoughts about clearing the Dungeon . There was a 'Being' enticing him with the promise of 'Power' . All he had to look forward to was making a deal .
Weeeeng .
As he passed through the portal, he heard a buzz, and he felt his body become weightless . It felt as if he was being transported to a different Dimension .
He was a Rank B Roused, so he had experienced clearing high rank Dungeons several times . He wasn’t wholly unfamiliar with this sensation .
However, the scene that unfolded in front of his eyes was unfamiliar and strange .
Hweeeeng .
He saw a large castle of ice being buffeted by cold winds .
The land was too desolate to call it a field, and it was filled with white snow . The road headed towards a hill where a large ice castle existed on top of it .
Lee-sahngho automatically shrunk backwards as he saw the domineering view .
Cold wasn't the only reason why his body was shaking .
When he was about to swallow his saliva, some unknown thing exited the castle, and it started running towards Lee-sahngho .
Koong, koong, koong!
The large beast's footfall made the ground shake, and Lee-sahngho's heart raced faster . Lee-sahngho's speciality was psychokinesis . He was too weak to be called a physical type Roused .
“Ooh-ook . . ”
He knew an existence he couldn't handle was approaching him, so Lee-sahngho automatically let out a moan .
“Koo-roo-roo-roong . ”
The large being had a curved back, and it was covered in thick white fur . It was an ice troll . It was three times the size of a person, and the ice troll stopped right in front of Lee-sahngho .
“Koong koong . Koong . ”
“…… . ”
Its nose flared to take in his scent . There was a horrible stench coming from its mouth, but Lee-sahngho didn't move a finger . The corrupt being probably didn't call him here, so he could be eaten by an ice troll .
“Koo-roo-roong . ”
When it turned around, Lee-sahngho saw what was being dragged by the ice troll . It looked like a mix between a carriage and a sled . It turned its back to Lee-sahngho after showing him the ride .
After receiving the clear message, Lee-sahngho took a deep breath then he got on the sled .
“Koo-roo-roong . ”
Steam started to come out of its nose as it ran towards the castle with the sled in tow . The castle was so large that it gave the illusion they were already close to it . However, it took awhile for them to arrive even though the sled was moving at an incredible speed .
When he stood in front of the castle's door, it looked to be about 10 meters tall . He could guess the size of the owner, who would use this door regularly .
When the castle door opened, he followed the ice troll without being given any time to rest .
When he looked around his surrounding, he could see a good number of ice trolls, and he saw couple large monster that looked like a woolly mammoth .
After Lee-sangho walked for a fathomless amount of time, he arrived at the heart of the castle .
It look to be the residence of the king . The place was sparkling, since it was carved out of ice . It was an excessively fancy castle .
In the center of the large hall, there was a stairway leading up high . At the zenith, the being, who had call him, was sitting on a throne .
“You really came . ”
The being was made entirely out of ice .
He looked like an ice golem, but his size and shape was similar to that of a human . Even if he was of similar height, his presence made it clear that he wasn't a human .
Lee-sahngho got on his knee out of his own volition, and he lowered his head .
When the being saw this, he stood up from his ice throne .
“You are quite quick on the uptake . ”
As if he liked what he saw, the being descended the steps one at a time, then he stood in front of Lee-sahngho .
“Raise your head . ”
“Yes . ”
Lee-sahngho couldn't control his body from shaking, and he raised his head . He felt it all over his body . The ice sculpture-like being in front of him could kill Lee-sahngho with the tip of his finger . . .
Kahng-woojin, who had beaten him to a pulp in front of the camera, couldn't even be compared to this being .
“I welcome you to my Dimensional Domain . ”
“…… . ”
“Koo-kook . You don't have to tremble . I wanted to give you an offer, so I sent a messenger to you . "
A white specter appeared and disappeared next to the being made out of ice .
“I'll give you the power you want . . ”
Give him power… He liked those words . It was the word he had wished for, but he knew there were no free meals in this world . His desire for power was used as bait to bring him here .
“What do you want?”
“Koo-koo-kook . ”
The being laughed .
“This is why I like humans . ”
Humans were an existence that most understood the fact that if one coveted something above their station then there was a cost involved . This was why they were a very good prey and a good source of energy .
“I want to occupy Earth, but earth can't accept me yet . It is too early . ”
“…… . ”
Lee-sahngho listened in silence . He had no idea what this being was talking about .
Still, it felt as if he had become privy to an incredible secret no one knew about on earth .
“I won't lose good hunting grounds to those beneath me . ”
The being turned his back towards Lee-sahngho, then he turned to look at the throne he had been sitting in .
There were 25 stairs .
He held the glorious title of being Trahnet's 25th great lord .
Iello .
“I'm not like that stupid Rashmode . I avoid using an unstable link . ”
Trahnet's 72 commanders . They were the 72 great lords who held their own thrones .
Each throne were numbered by Steps from 1 to 72, and above them was the absolute monarch . . . Everyone needed a hunting ground .
Earth was being synchronized, so the energy level would increase . The increased amount of energy will allow a link to form for the 1st Step . As the power on Earth increases, the higher Steps could prey on earth .
Iello didn't like this at all .
He won't be able to link with Earth as fast as the great lords of the lower Steps . Still, he didn't want to be late in linking with Earth, so he needed to bring changes to Earth .
“You just have to cause trouble to your heart's content . ”
Iello turned back once again, and he raised his hand towards the kneeling Lee-sahngho's head . As if he was learning an ability using a Skill Book, new knowledge was absorbed into Lee-sahngho's head .
‘T . . . this is . . . ’
Dungeon Break .
Ielo needed exactly 30 days before he could use the Return Stone, but he could hasten it by using the human from earth . Lee-sahngho, would be his vector .
He will open a path where the monsters will be able to pass through to earth .
“Ah . I'll have to give you some power . It seems you have a massive grudge against that troublesome Immortal . ”
Iello broke off a fragment of ice from his shoulder, and he gave it to Lee-sahngho . Lee-sahngho received it with reverence, and the fragment that looked like an ice flower was absorbed into Lee-sahngho's body in an instant .
‘H . . . how can this be!’
He felt it . The overflowing energy was rising inside him like a dragon . He developed new abilities, and his knowledge expanded .
‘God . . . These beings are gods . ’
If Asgard was real then would it be like this? Should he call this the world of the gods?
The gods were trying to descend to earth .
The stupid people of earth was unnecessarily resisting against the gods .
These beings will eventually descend .
Lee-sahngho could feel it . No matter how they struggled humans wouldn’t be able to stop them .
He'll become the god's envoy .
He'll get his revenge, and he'll bring destruction .
<You've become the vassal of 25th great lord, Ielo . >
Ielo smiled .
He probably wasn't the only great lord, who had sent out a messenger .
The synchronization of earth will be accelerated, and he'll materialize on earth before those below him gained more power . He would defend his throne, and he will also challenge the higher thrones .
“Do as you please, my servant . ”
A blue light rolled across Lee-sahngho's eyes .
*
He had already ridden the Titan guild's private plane, so he greeted the familiar pilot and flight crews . However, Woojin frowned when he saw a familiar woman inside .
“Why are you here?”
“…… . ”
Before the Holy Maiden could reply, a black smoke formed next to Woojin . Kiba materialized .
[Evil bitch!]
Kiba let out a yell, and his voice rang inside the plane . Kiba was about to charge immediately with his axe to cleave her into two, but Woojin restrained him .
“Don't come out before I call for you . ”
Goo-roo-roo-roo-roong .
Kiba's rough breath pressed against the Holy Maiden . The Holy Maiden's face became haggard, but she didn't back down . Woojin's consciousness was connected to the Summon Room, and he sighed when he felt his Death Knights protest .
“Go back in . ”
Immortal's command demanded absolute obedience .
Kiba didn't hide his killing intent as he glared at Melody . He changed back into black smoke, and he was absorbed into Woojin .
“…… . ”
Some unknown and frightening being had appeared, so the flight attendants shook as they pressed their bodies against the wall of the plane . The Holy Knights, who had accompanied the Holy Maiden, was frozen in nervousness .
The killing intent and pressure shown in an instant had made the Holy Knights, who were Rank A and Rank B, freeze in place .
“You are also going to the Middle East?”
“Yes… . ”
“My familiars don't like you . Why are you following after me?”
“…the goddess gave an oracle . She said for me to assist the Immortal . . . ”
“Ah-oh . Why did that big sis say such a thing?”
Woojin frowned .
What kind of Holy Maiden assists a **** Necromancer?
“I . . . I'm sorry . ”
Melody lowered her head .
This being had faced gods . Melody had no choice, but to be careful in front of the Immortal . She was just a servant, who could hear the goddess' voice .
“Uh-whew . It's ok . Why should you be sorry?”
The Holy Maiden had to do whatever the goddess said .
Goddess Aria was the foul one . The Holy Maiden Melody wasn't at fault .
“Just don't get close to me . ”
“Yes . ”
“Moreover, don't use any Holy Magic around me . ”
“Yes… . ”
As if it wasn't enough, Woojin once again gave another warning .
“I'm serious . Don't use it . If your Holy Powers mistakenly hit these guys, they will perish . ”
“Yes . I'll be careful . ”
The Death Knights were still yelling their grievance inside the Summon Room, so Woojin frowned .
Woojin didn't mind the fact that she was here .
Bibi and Dolsae was also fine, since one was a devil and the other was a golem . However, his Undead Familiars hated the Holy Maiden .
“Eh-whew . Whatever . ”
Woojin sat in his seat, then he put on his seatbelt .
The Holy Maiden sat far away from him, and she put on her seatbelt . Then she prayed to her goddess .
‘Oh goddess . Please look over me if you feel sorry for me . ’
She liked the fact that Alphen would be rescued . Everything was great .
However, she had to follow Woojin when she wasn't entirely welcomed . It made her future seem dark, and her heart was already fluttering from nervousness .
When she shrank away from Woojin, the Holy Knights also started to eye Woojin warily .
“Ah . I should have uploaded some drama . ”
Woojin felt regret, but it was too late .
The plane left the tarmac, and it headed towards the Middle East .
