by adminEven though I played the Ahegao double piece with a really unpleasant feeling, unpleasant things are unpleasant and good things are good.
How to feel and manipulate magical power, the basic principles of magic, the common spells you start with and various spells in the necromancer’s skill tree.
Although it was unpleasant, I was able to immediately acquire knowledge that would have taken me years to explain to others.
If you put it nicely, magic was infinite, but if you put it bluntly, there was less magic than you thought. To put it simply, magic was the way to ‘ask a favor’ from the world using magical power.
For example, I had no idea about the spell ‘ignite’ until just now.
No, I didn’t even know how to manipulate mana, let alone spells.
Actually, if I say ‘ignition’, nothing should have happened like in the ‘status window’. It’s the same as talking recklessly without observing any form of communication with the world or payment method.
But who am I? Even though he is sickly, he is actually the seed of the strongest necromancer?
The world spontaneously responded to the will and specific image of wanting to light a fire in a form, a price, and a simple fire, and magic was revealed.
This is the essence of magic. Ask the world for what you want.
Of course, there was a certain amount of difference between the ‘ignition’ I used and the ‘ignition’ of the skill tree that was forcibly injected. The amount of magic I put into simply lighting a fire was equivalent to using a bundle of money as an offering instead of firewood. My magical power was so overflowing that it was barely noticeable.
Stereotypical spells such as ‘Ignite’ in the skill tree are a kind of ‘optimization’ achieved by numerous wizards working together to ask for a fire to be lit at the lowest cost and highest efficiency. Therefore, there were not that many spells in the skill tree. In the game, if necessary magic was created, each person would write the spell and effect, and the system would calculate the cost and use it.
So even a wizard who was just starting out could use magic like Meteor. Instead of the expected meteorite, a small pebble falls down, and the character dies as a reward for asking too much and is deleted.
That’s why a wizard’s ‘talent’ is important.
When you receive the world’s love, the cost of asking for something decreases, and sometimes requests that exceed your expectations are granted. If you have overflowing magical power, you don’t have to worry about the price. If the computation was fast, changes in magical power and optimization of magic could be done sensibly.
And I have all the talents a wizard needs. In return, he had sick limbs, his whole body was rotten and rotten, and he had various other disabilities, and he became an enemy of the world, but that was like a guarantee in the system that he was a talent so great that he had to pay a price to be a counterweight.
Until now, I was drooping like a stoned frog, but when I confirmed my talent, my head started spinning.
It was a very shitty thing for some bastard to put me in the game, but looking at it as positively as possible, I had the talent to advance to a level no one else could reach, and I had accumulated more than enough experience to do so. If you think negatively, you will immediately want to bite your tongue and die, so you should only think positively.
In my head, I slowly made a plan about what I could and couldn’t do right away and how I would get through the beginning.
‘At this rate, I can stop by there in the beginning.’
A moderately sized goblin village located near the starting point. Originally, the rule was to stay in the nearby village of beginning, proceed with the tutorial quest, and finally defeat it.
Of course, my hostility level is so high that even if I get close to the starting village, I’ll be shot with arrows, so it’s meaningless.
Anyway, it was not an easy place as it was the final destination of the tutorial, but I calculated that I could do it in my own way.
I also knew exactly the level of power of the goblin village that had been subdued hundreds of times, as if it were rotten water.
It really shouldn’t be used in battle, but there was also reliable insurance called Ariel.
After gathering my thoughts and waiting, Ariel came back, dragging a large snake with her.
A curvy body that couldn’t be hidden even with a robe… I quickly lowered my head and looked at the ground. To have such blasphemous fantasies about Ariel, who is like my daughter… I’m such a piece of trash…
‘Anyway, where did you catch that…?’
No matter how you look at it, it was not just an animal, it was a monster. I think it was a monster like a black python…
Did it ever grow close to 10 meters like that?
For some reason, I thought that even though it was a simple command to catch an animal, it went quite far. Since I was connected to Ariel through a soul imprint, I was able to know roughly where she was and what her condition was.
Since it was the new master’s first order, Ariel seemed to have paid some attention to it. Even though most of his abilities are sealed, some intelligence remains.
When I slightly raise my head and look at Ariel’s face, the corners of her mouth seem to be slightly raised.
It’s so subtle that you wouldn’t even notice it unless you’ve seen it countless times like me.
“Sigh… So cute…!”
Which family’s daughter did she come from to be this cute?…!
It was so noble that my heart, which was full of agony, became as clean as the clear sky.
“Would you please drag me here?”
Even though Ariel approached lightly, the snake dragged her along, leaving a drag mark on the floor.
Looking at it squirming intermittently, it seemed like it was still breathing, which was actually nice. The more karma you accumulate, the better.
“How to kill him.”
Rather than just killing him, we should try the curse spell. Unlike basic elemental magic, its power and scope are somewhat ambiguous.
I first placed my hand on the wall of the cave and raised my magic power.
[Rock Formation]
Quad deuk.
With the sound of rocks splitting, a small dagger was pulled out from the wall of the cave and placed in my hand.
A very crude, but sharp dagger made of rock.
It didn’t have to be bigger than this. I’m sitting down because I can’t control my body properly.
“Ariel. Hold me tight so I can’t struggle.”
Without hesitation, I raised the dagger and stabbed it into the snake’s body.
Deep.
It’s shallow. I took the picture with all my might, to the point that my right arm was shaking, but I couldn’t even fit two fingers in.
Rather, the serpent’s struggles became more severe as he felt the fear of the blade.
[weakening]
I cast the most basic curse spell and struck again.
Deep.
Although it seemed to have some effect, the blade went deeper even though it had less power than before.
“Better than expected.”
Perhaps because the potential was concentrated in the Necromancer series, the power of the curse magic felt very disappointing. Even if it is the same black magic series, the direction is different.
Even after that, I felt it while testing minor curse magic such as [bleeding], [lower body temperature], and [infection].
A strong scent of death that only a necromancer can smell.
The scent of death that blooms from the last breath of a living thing.
Sweeter than any other perfume, sweeter than any American wine.
After being immersed in that scent, I felt quite good.
“Goodbye. I will use your body wisely.”
Deep.
He finished it off by sticking a dagger into the serpent’s eye.
As I waited for a while, an image of a grain of sand falling suddenly appeared in my mind.
‘This is similar to a game.’
It is convenient to think of karma as a kind of correction value. Whether it’s hunting, completing quests, or doing something that has an impact on the world, karma accumulates.
Depending on the degree of influence, it may be like a grain of sand, or a typhoon, and this accumulated karma connects me with the world more strongly.
In short, if you accumulate a lot, it just becomes really strong.
And as ‘Vegabond’ is a game that continues to evolve, NPCs also become stronger by gaining karma. Since you are not a player, you cannot accumulate karma through quests, but you become stronger by killing monsters or training.
The unfortunate thing is that NPCs who have become so strong will rush to kill me as soon as they catch sight of me.
So I have to become strong in order to survive, and I have to kill a lot to become stronger.
In other words, you have to kill to survive.
Therefore, the initial route was designed to kill as many as possible. Wipe out everything, whether monsters or humans.
If you get caught, you’ll end up in a pretty boring situation, but it’s already a bad enough situation that you can’t tell whether it’s cold or hot.
Would you feel at ease if you were the country and had to exterminate people in droves, regardless of gender or age?
The five organs and six parts were twisted and grief poured out… It wasn’t.
I don’t know if it’s the effect of immobility or the loss of empathy, but it’s calmer than I thought, no. Actually, I didn’t think much of it.
It might actually be fun, right?
