108 – 2. ■■’S Summoner (53)

#108

Iljigamchi evolves the hive.

No, I’ll delay it a little longer and see it up to level 30.

It was an attractive option no matter which one you choose. So I decided to try an adventure after a long time.

The unknown is a mystery wrapped in fear. If you can avoid it, you can avoid it. Even if you pass it on and turn away, there is no big problem right now.

However, there will come a time when you must put your head into the unknown.

At that time, will you go there and overcome your fear and squeeze your strength, or will you seek to know everything after being prepared from the beginning.

Of course I choose the latter. Those who fear the unknown are sinners who choose ignorance.

Incompetence alone is not a sin.

The moment you lean on your incompetence and try to excuse your ignorance, it becomes a sin. No matter how lacking, he struggles desperately within his power. People look at it and say, “I’m making an effort.”

Thus, I wanted to minimize the power consumed in it. Because it’s annoying because i want to rest You can’t just play and eat. Because those who do not work are not given a choice.

In this world, such tendencies are more prominent. The weak are thoroughly trampled upon by the strong. Because it is such a world, even if I want to be complacent, I cannot.

In order to end a storm with endless incidents and accidents, the center must either disappear or the person leading the storm must be eliminated.

I liked Ban Tae-woong.

Sometimes he’s a troublesome guy, but he’s extremely human and he’s a hard worker who lives day by day harder than anyone else I know.

That’s why I’m also trying to cut off the son of a god who pushes the world into the pit of madness.

Even if it means getting out of the way of India, as a result, if I can find peace, I’m going to kill all gods or whatever.

In the first place, as long as the crazy author named Shin is still alive, even if he kills the current Ban Tae-woong, the second and third Ban Tae-woong will only appear.

So, rather than shouting that he would kill a stern guy for no reason, it is the right strategy to fight each other to eliminate the cause.

…The story got a bit off track, but here’s what I want to say.

“Let’s commit and think.”

In either case, I basically react to the situation in front of me on the spot and solve it.

The secretive, behind-the-scenes style will only come in handy later, but the process up to the middle is too f*cking right, so it doesn’t suit me well.

Well, regardless of likes or dislikes, my theory is to use whatever is necessary, so I have no complaints about continuing to maintain my current stance.

Because now I’m not in a position to cover things up.

Stress is no joke as she rolls around while being caught between a god who doesn’t know when she might burst and Lee Se-rin, who is ready to explode at any time.

If I hadn’t beaten the monsters in the name of leveling up, I wonder if they would have exploded long ago.

I deliberately stick to the legal side because I don’t want to get involved in troublesome things like getting caught on purpose when I’m relaxing.

Even if it’s unfair, I’m legally f*cking stupid. I won’t even touch it in the slightest. In the case of an emergency, if something happens that I have no choice but to touch, I have saved people to get dirty in my place, so there is no need to worry.

“Hmm, let’s check first.”

From noble mtl dot com

In the past, if you simply checked the list of possible evolutions for the purpose of filling the encyclopedia, now you want to figure out what conditions must be fulfilled to get this kind of evolution.

I took out the status window again and pressed the [Evolvable] Button next to the level.

+

[Evolvable list]

Horror – [Scare Crow]

Conquest – [Conquest]

+

There were two things that could evolve. There are more evolutionary routes than I thought. I thought I couldn’t help it if only one came out, but I was given the choice I had hoped for.

‘Not bad.’

It is not an option, but a must, to check, even for the purpose of filling the encyclopedia.

Let’s focus on the letters again, and the difference that immediately catches our eye is the noun in front.

It was more concise than before, but the meaning contained was heavier and more hideous. I carefully read the information written in the Book of Summoning.

First of all, [Scare Crow] Of fear.

It’s not the scarecrow that people often think of, but the ability itself was similar to it.

The appearance was completely huge from the existing one, to the point of mistaking whether it was a crow or a large eagle.

Unlike ordinary crows, [Scare Crow] Had three pairs of wings instead of one pair.

Small wings grew above and below one giant wing, and the pupils also had dozens of small eyes within the existing eyes, creating a natural reluctance.

The composition of the abilities it has has also been greatly diverted in the direction of inducing fear to the target.

If [Guild Raven] Was to give birth to an alter ego of a shadow with substance, [Scare Crow] Was strengthened in the form that the main body becomes stronger the more the target feels fear.

If I hadn’t had [Subdued], I don’t think I would have chosen this evolution. This is because you can inflict a certain debuff called fear on the enemy and at the same time try to strengthen yourself.

It’s a bit far from the all-purpose type like now, but since it’s closer to the combat type, the reinforcement itself must be certain.

The condition for unlocking this evolution is probably ‘Have you ever truly driven a target to tremble with fear?’.

From the beginning, the focus was on fear, so this must be correct.

Next is [Conquest] Of conquest.

The first thing that caught my eye was the skull covering its face. The bristly, bristly feathers, reminiscent of a coat, seemed invulnerable to anything.

The appearance of the white bones scattered here and there in the black body was very heterogeneous enough to clearly know where the origin of the name appeared.

The motif is probably a plague doctor and a white knight, one of the four knights of the Apocalypse.

The bird imitates the mask imitating the bird’s beak. Looking at the situation alone, it was a composition that made it impossible to hold back laughter, but the power of this object was difficult to overcome with laughter.

The connection between conquest and pestilence is indeed simple.

This is because the old people at the time when the Black Death was widespread considered the disease itself to be a trick of the devil, and those who got sick were those who had been defeated by the devil.

Thus, being sick means being defeated and conquered by the devil.

It doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. The moment people believed and sincerely thought so, the concept was born.

If the appearance of [Conquest] Was greatly influenced by the Plague Doctor, the ability part can be seen as close to the power of the white knight described above.

Weakening the target based on the debuff called plague is similar to the fear of [Scare Crow]. But in addition to that, [Conquest] Specializes in overpowering the target.

Directions are innumerable quantities.

The White Knight, who appears in the Apocalypse, has the power to command and kill animals on the ground. [Conquest] Inherited that power as his own, and now he can change his alter ego into the form of another beast and control it.

If an existence has a prototype, it can even copy the appearance of that existence. However, only if it is located on the ground.

The origin of this power, which reminds me of a doppelganger, is also the devil. It means that among the conditions of this evolution, there is something related to the ‘devil’.

“…It seems that the conditions are satisfied even among the summoned beasts.”

To be precise, that condition would be unlocked through me, but I could see that interactions between summoned beasts were also important.

It’s not just a story limited to Echidna. Since most of my summons always wear the Hive’s Shadow Crow from the moment they are summoned, the experience will naturally accumulate to produce this result.

One more reason to increase the number of branches.

“Hmm.”

Both evolutions were attractive. Even the first evolution, but everything looked good. No, on the contrary, I liked it more because it evolved and became stronger and more distinctive.

I also wanted to endure until 30. Even at this stage, only the things I liked appeared, but I wonder how much more great evolution will come out in my 30s.

Of course, there is no guarantee that the resulting evolution will be better than the current two evolutions.

Still, since I had already decided to do it, I was reluctant to hold back. After thinking about it for a while, I chose [Conquest].

Considering the synergy between my skills and summons, I decided that [Conquest] Would be more suitable than [Scare Crow].

As this guy was the one I first summoned, I wanted to raise him to be pure without any impurities, so I didn’t use the [Book of Combination] Separately.

“Confirmed.”

As soon as I chose to evolve, magic spread around Hive’s body. I don’t go against that mana, but rather help to spread my strength more by adding my own mana.

In that moment, the view changes.

Darkness comes from the other side of the wilderness. As the sun sets and night approaches, light shines in the rapidly changing world. Not a star All that resides within the darkness are beasts. The viciously twinkling light devours everything it touches in the darkness.

In the place where the darkness has passed, only broken or broken things remain.

The living things are undoubtedly headed for death, and the dead things are engulfed in darkness and added just because they have room to be used.

The sound of someone crying came overlapping like a chorus. As the darkness approached, screams and noises reverberated like musical instruments and continued to linger in my ears.

Is that really anger toward the dark, or is it a lamentation in the face of an irresistible calamity?

I don’t know. I don’t want to know and I have no intention of knowing. I didn’t want to involve myself in their misery.

There’s only one reason, it’s just annoying.

Darkness slowly approaches me. Only then could they find their commonalities.

Bone.

The monsters in the darkness all wore masks made of bones. That is their body Instinctively recognizing this fact, I looked at a mask located beyond the darkness.

At that moment, our eyes met the one in the darkness. It is a creepy gaze that sends goosebumps down the spine.

I slowly raise my hand with that gaze

[Evolution completed.]

[Individual name Has safely evolved into [Conquest].]

Forgot

I came to my senses at the voice of the system that rang in my mind.

At the tip of my outstretched hand, I saw Hive, who had completed evolution and was wearing a skull mask, tilting his head.

Afterward, he opened his mouth like a habit, but strangely, no sound echoed.

Crying is an obvious action, but I couldn’t hear it. Looking at it now, I could see that the ends of his body shimmered like the shadow I was using.

It seems that the overall area of the body has decreased compared to before, but the size of the body will not mean much to him now.

I was able to know this because I dealt directly with the shadows. If you decide to grow, you can grow as far as you can reach, and if you want to become small, you can grow infinitely smaller. The current Hive is in just such a state.

It seems that some of the conditions were related to the ‘shadow’. After all, if you don’t directly evolve it and check it, it’s bigger that you don’t know.

From that appearance, it seems that evolution that meets the conditions is evolution, so it seems that it has become a being completely separated from living things.

I let out a light sigh as I caught that figure in my eyes.

Perhaps it was the second evolution, the video shown during evolution was also not a joke. Recalling the sense of reality as I opened and closed my hands, I checked the system that came up next.

[The talent [Crow Group] Has been transformed into [The Beast of Silence].]

[The skill [Crown of Bones] Has been obtained.]

[The skill [Group Leader] Has evolved into the skill [King of the Pack].]

[The skill [All Things] Has changed to the skill [Greed].]

[The skill [Violence of Numbers] Has evolved into the skill [The Devourer].]

[The skill [Dark Rush] Has evolved into the skill [Dark Spirit].]

[All stats have increased by 10.]

[Crown of Bones Lv 1]

Points available: 13

+

I checked the status window of the newly emerging hive and nodded my head in satisfaction.

Although the completely reset level was a bit wasteful, it is because I know that the value of the higher stats and evolved skills will be more beneficial in the long run.

I could have added a little bit of stake to the hypothesis that I thought there was correct.

As a result, it was a very good decision as there were only benefits.

Finally, I invested 8 points in muscle strength, 2 points in skills, and the remaining 3 points in luck using the points I had been saving until now.

“Please take good care of me in the future.”

As if in response to my words, I felt my body lose strength as I rubbed the bone mask that acted as a beak. It’s because I’m already exhausted with this one, and there’s still one more left.

“Comet.”

“Yes, Master!”

At my call, Comet, who was combing Graul’s hair with a comb made of nanomachines, responded cheerfully and approached.

From noble mtl dot com

I opened the [Book of Summoning], Checked the status window of the Comet, and put my head down as if I was burying myself in a chair.

“Are you okay? Master?”

“…Uh, that’s fine. Don’t be okay.”

There is no pain anywhere. It’s just because I’m tired and bothered.

I’m sorry for Comet, but troublesome things are troublesome.

Guys know my personality, so I don’t show off, but it’s not like that on the inside. That was the feeling I felt from Comet right away.

I feel sorry for the situation itself where I am bothered because of myself, and I feel sorry again. On the other hand, I am excited that I will be able to be of more help to myself through myself.

It was a confused and contradictory feeling that made me feel dizzy. To feel so perfectly about a subject that is a lifeless machine, should we like it? I don’t know. I just wanted to rest quickly.

“…Whoa!”

I sighed and brushed off my drowsiness, then corrected my posture and sat down.

Echidna, naturally seated next to me, gently created a breeze using a fan made of black shadows, and Comet carefully prepared the food received from the hive into bite-sized pieces and carried it to my mouth.

My body naturally melted away from the unexpected luxury.

Oh, that’s crazy. Let’s rest Let’s rest like this and think about the next time. It felt like someone was whispering in my ear. In fact, my body was ready to rest at any time.

But I clenched my teeth and shook my head to get the thought out.

If you indulge in these things, you will be corrupted in many ways. Let’s try a little harder. If you don’t do it now, it’ll be more annoying later, right? So let’s try a little harder.

Even if you take a break, it will definitely make you feel much more comfortable if you rest after that. My head felt like it was spinning again because I ate something to eat.

I handed over my intention of refusal to Comet, who kept putting food in my mouth, and focused on the status window.

If it was a simple evolution, I would choose the one that appeals to me without thinking about it, but this time it was different.

Is it because he is a humanoid like Echidna? Or is it because he made a boss out of it?

[Possible job change]

In the status window of Comet, there was a job change, not evolution.
