The Necromancers
Ch. 30.5: The Rise of Young Necromancers
This...
How could this possibly happen?
In the east and west, Friya and Reita are baffled by the sudden darkening. As with them, Shilphonia felt her instincts to be alert and careful.
A large purple-colored ball attacked towards them many times.
Friya who deployed the [Magic Shield] within a wide range, Reita who used the rocks she stepped on turned into a large cliff that layered to protect her from a series of large purple balls.
At Shilphonia's place, consecutive shots were directed at her from all directions.
An arrow coated by a young purplish light rained down from the ceiling onto him. Before the arrows rained down on him, Shilphonia used [Heaven Protection] on his body making him coated by a golden aura that made him immune to the numerous arrows attacks on him.
At the place of Regard, the powerful shaking of the ground caused some of the city buildings to collapse instantly.
He's so strong.
Throwing a few dagger blades coated by poison towards his opponent, the man coated by a purplish aura blew the air away and reversed the dagger attack that led to Regard himself.
Lothawat!
Unable to withstand the shock, Regard moved his body as fast as possible causing him to activate [High Acceleration] in an unusual speed.
Behind Regard, a man attacked him using a kick powered by dark energy.
As much as possible Regard held him back using the [Black Sword] but it was difficult to stay in the defensive position.
The dark energy that was growing bigger and stronger made his body slightly pushed and then bounced away from the walls of the building.
"God..."
Blood flowed through his mouth.
He never felt the sensation of being defeated by the man in front of him.
Not only one, the other man in a similar appearance had repeatedly cornered him causing the Regard difficult to know which one was real and fake.
One of the men who was enveloped by the aura of darkness dashed swiftly like lightning at Regard.
Trang!
Although the man's movements could be stopped, Regard felt less confident that the other man would be silent without helping him.
A row of dark purple-colored spheres was directed towards the Regard.
Steadying on the surface, the Regard used the ground as a shield that turned into a wall in large numbers. One by one the walls that protected it cracked and then slowly shattered.
Unable to maintain his position, Regard disappeared and appeared in mid-air.
But before being able to move, the man surprised Regard. With a powerful kick followed by dark energy filling his legs, Regard's body bounced onto the building and fell down.
Not missing the opportunity, the group of men who were enveloped by the black aura around, began to emit the same purplish light as the one that Regard had before.
Regard has risen from his downfall.
Looking towards them, he knew that what they were using was not ordinary abilities but something extraordinary that he had used before.
"Destroy..kill..destroy..."
Some katanas coated by large dark elements are on the right side, while some long spears coated by darkness are on the left side.
The two weapons that were behind the mysterious man became one in a circle mixed with each other causing the katana and spears to line up in turn.
In both hands a purple figure, a small black-colored sphere could be seen.
The ball is directed to the ceiling making the entire sky crowded by a large circle of black like the moon, but sucking the various cities on the surface.
Hid. Why are they this strong?
Still clueless as to what was really going on, Regard wondered over the strength and ability they had all along.
The Necromancer's power and abilities, the controllable [Infinity Spirit], as well as the [Dark Hole] that could be summoned simultaneously in both of his hands, all felt extremely unreasonable.
Plugging the [Black Sword] into the ground surface, Regard as much as possible refrained himself from being sucked into the [Dark Hole] that was on the ceiling because it was dangerous to do.
They're...
When his gaze locked on the movements that could be predicted to lead to him, Regard took off his sword grip and chose to switch places instantly.
Just as he had expected, the slash from the katana that was about to split apart the body was seen in the empty air, followed by a long spear that was plugged into the ground surface, letting out curious spirits that soared high up on the ceiling filled the surface.
Guh...
Can't say anything, the only mistake Regard made was that he didn't know what to do.
Thoroughly, in front of him seemed like he was losing control but a few different aspects.
Regard who was told by the Demon King, he told her that when Regard got out of control on his body and mind, he could only use physical attacks on his fists and kicks towards the Demon King, he could only use physical attacks on his fists and kicks against the Demon King, while studying magic he did when he was able to master physical strength a year ago after he managed to control the darkness inside him.
The sword slashes repeatedly carried out in the air caused waves of dark purple-colored air to hit his body again and again.
Enough already!
Disappeared where he was, the Regard that appeared on the ceiling used [Air Step] and [Wind Walk] which then twisted his body when jumping in the air.
As he twisted in the air, a strong wind blew around him. Utilizing a large amount of wind, Regard collected as much as possible and then blew it around causing a shock wave from the wind to be able to eliminate any attack from his enemy.
"Truly amazing."
Noticing his arms, he was unaware that some of his enemies were approaching him and preparing to end his life.
Depressing.
"....."
Heavy pressure can be felt by all men who previously felt confident now falling to the surface, bearing the heavy burden caused by Regard to them.
"Hows it? Have you seen him?"
With bright red eyes, Regard transformed himself even more terrifyingly.
A pair of black wings stretched wide, a pair of curved horns on his head, the black tail slowly elongated, accompanied by long, pointed ears.
"This will be the end for you."
As if his voice was deeper than usual, his self that floated in the air, holding a purple-colored ball that swirled within his open palm.
"[Dimension Breaker]."
Precisely a round purple colored ball is directed to the ceiling, a larger and wider dimension that begins a wide vertical line stretching across the sky, it swallowed everything like a [Dark Hole] but it was stronger and more powerful than before.
In the eastern Lost Town, Friya and Reita who were still constantly in a defensive position, felt a strong and mighty tremor.
Slowly, the city building began to be sucked into a purple circle that stretched as wide as the full moon but in a larger size than usual made them wonder.
"Maybe this..."
"Yes, I'm sure it must be him."
Friya and Reita, holding hands, decide to move out of town to avoid being dragged into a creepy purple ball for them to see.
In the western Lost Town, Shilphonia who used the [Unlimited Blade] of various types of swords constantly launched her attacks on her enemies.
But his efforts were in vain.
His enemy who used the abilities he felt he had seen, was struck by something unexpected that stretched wide across the night ceiling.
"What's that?"
Get out of here, Shilphonia! That power and ability...
"Could possibly..."
Yep. No doubt, that is his ability.
Biting his lips, Shilphonia quickly used a little more powerful ability than usual.
Taking out a barrage of bright red-colored swords to shoot towards them, they held it back.
But, that did not make Shilphonia tremble. Instead, a grinning smile could be seen.
Just when the bright red-colored swords hit them, large-scale explosions occurred in a relentless streak of creating dust that allowed him to move out of the city using [Acceleration] as quickly as possible without being noticed by them.
Witnessing the scene where everything was devoured by a large purple ball that was larger than the moon, the half-demon-turned-Regard could only wait for the second moment of the city's destruction.
In his hand was a black sphere, gathered together in great numbers wandering souls who had hatred, despair, resentment, and sorrow could be felt.
"I'm sorry, Everyone."
With a cry that soaked his cheek, he disappeared in an instant in the empty air.

The Regard POV
Exhausted.
Resting on an empty expanse of land, we decided to take a short break for three days on the way before finally returning to the city.
This trip really made me tired.
After using the abilities and powers possessed by the demon girl that I managed to obtain her abilities and strength, my body felt even more cruel and terrifying than usual.
Not only did it change my appearance as a beautiful girl in the form of a demon and a human, it also changed the emotions inside me to be more terrifying and terrifying.
I don't want to use it anymore.
It would be very dangerous if I really lost control again later. So, the only thing best is to let me have it.
That'sallthatis.
No more than having it.
But, that's weird.
Ever since the souls gathered, there have been some emotions telling me to stay alive until the end comes.
Finally arrived yes.
I don't know what they mean, I think it has something to do with Hu-Machina attacking their city, obliterating buildings, killing innocent lives, and blindly any attack just to negate anything that was previously on the map vanished overnight.
In the gathering of souls, there is one soul that I think comes from the man who was my opponent.
"Strengthen your resolve and your heart to not be like them."
Those were profound words that were full of meaning.
In other words, I had to strengthen my resolve and my heart more than usual.
"....."
One day, I don't know what awaits me. As long as I have the Necromancer class, I am destined to live in darkness, killing and killing anyone who is my enemy, copying the abilities and power they possess.
That was the true power of the Necromancer.
