Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

Chapter 94



Episode 94. Admission

Diene Alven came out and the evaluation, which had been delayed for a while, resumed immediately.

The last group to enter the Tower of Modras.

Among them, the eyes of the people looking at Adrias Cromwell, who was included in the last group, were different.

“I don’t know if I should call that confident or arrogant.”

“Young friend is energetic and nice. All men should have that level of ambition.”

Deputy Tower Lord Christian, who can be considered the second-in-command of the Rodelian Tower, and Danard, the subordinate of the Duke of Morheim and the vice-captain of the Knights of Morheim, who ran after hearing the news from the 20th floor, spoke in succession.

Both of them were eminent figures, so the reporters of the newspaper were busy writing down even their words.

Among those gathered here, not a single one was inferior in reputation.

As much as that, the ripple effect of each word was great, and such people began to argue.

“It’s just a child’s bullshit. You don’t have to take it seriously.”

“But Adrias Cromwell is an idiosyncratic. It should be easy to respond to variables as you can use magic and a sword at the same time.”

“No matter how idiosyncratic you are, you are just a student. Besides, the mana that can be used is limited, so it is meaningless.”

“Is Adrias Cromwell important now? This is the 20th floor passer who appeared for the first time in 42 years! That’s the first wizard! When Diene Alven graduates, she will be visiting the real ‘Tower.

Leaving the crowd behind, the last 7 groups began entering the Tower of Modras.

The sound of cheering from the gathered students spread, and soon everyone’s attention turned to Diene, who had just come out of the tower.

As soon as Diene came out, she was responding to the reporters with a tired look, suffering from a barrage of questions.

“My daughter looks tired, so I’ll stop here. Aren’t all the screen records left anyway?”

In the end, Bahat stepped forward and cleared the people standing next to Diene.

Diene smiled faintly at her father.

“Thank you, Dad.”

“It was a lot of hard work. Proud of you.”

Diene nodded at Bahat’s words and glanced back.

There, the image of Adrias, who had just entered the tower, was reflected on the screen.

‘Adrias should be able to go up at least 10 floors. Then I can rest a bit.’

The desire to watch Adrias play was like a chimney, but now I’m too tired. After resting for a bit, I started following my father, thinking that I could watch it.

* * *

The Tower of Modras was a 30-story tower.

Each floor had a different composition and content, and each entry had a different form.

The basic content was that even if it was possible to know it, it could not be memorized like a formula.

‘The first floor is a floor where you only need to pass through traps. But the road is twisted like a maze.’

The shape of the maze changes every time, so I had no choice but to leave it to chance.

However, since the level of students at Rodlen Academy was not so low that they could only leave due to traps, it could be seen as just warming up.

Kurleung.

A huge boulder rolled down, but the freshmen who stood in their way mercilessly split the boulder with swords containing auras.

Quaggagak!

“Is it too easy?”

“you idiot. It’s on the first floor, so of course it’s easy.”

I decided to use only magic for now.

It was the same that if I went upstairs, everyone would be kicked out and I would be left alone, so it was meaningless to try my best from now on. In addition to that, I was thinking of evolving the talent of elemental magic by the time I left by raising my magic proficiency at this opportunity.

The class of elemental magic I am currently learning is earth fire wind.

First of all, I was learning three things with good compatibility.

As for elemental magic, other wizards generally only learn 3 classes, so I was just following the basics.

‘If my talent evolves later, I’ll have to learn other elements as well.’

clap.

Arrows rained down when someone accidentally stepped on the trap.

I lightly bent my head to dodge the arrow and used the earth shield on Vincent next to me.

Dududuk!

“Thank you.”

Looking at his magical abilities, Vincent had a higher level of proficiency than me, but his practical experience was still a problem.

Should I say that it was like a new recruit who came out on the battlefield for the first time?

‘Even though there is one evaluation that is similar to the actual battle for each evaluation, it is stupid. How did you get promoted without failing?’

Well, in the past, I was able to get through to the 3rd year safely, but I wonder if this guy can’t do it.

In the end, the most important thing was graduation.

In the case of promotion, there was no problem in moderation, but it was a characteristic of Rodlen Academy that graduation was really difficult.

That’s how I went through all the mazes on the first floor and broke the traps.

“It is a staircase.”

“Aren’t we the last?”

“How are you? It’s not even a time attack.”

Before I knew it, the freshmen turned their heads toward me, who seemed like a leader, and asked.

“Senior, shall we go right away?”

“We can afford it.”

I looked at the condition of Vincent next to me and said.

“Okay, let’s go right away.”

There’s no need to waste time.

We went straight up to the second floor.

From the second floor, not only traps but also monsters appear in earnest.

Of course, on the first floors, there were miscellaneous mobs that were too good to be called monsters, but beyond the 5th floor, monsters that were difficult for first-year students to deal with appeared.

“Kiruk!”

As expected, goblins appeared on the second floor.

Only 5 numbers.

There were fewer monsters than us, weaker than adult males, so the results were obvious.

However, I did my best to use magic to raise my magic proficiency.

Fire.

“Kieek!”

Just before I passed the second floor and went up to the third floor, one member of the crew spoke to me in a worried tone.

“That senior.”

“why.”

“I was wondering if he was using too much mana.”

There seemed to be no complaints about him because he had told them before he left that only magic was used on the first floors. But apart from that, I must have felt uneasy when I used my magic.

“don’t worry. Like I said outside, I have no intention of losing to Diene Alven.”

“All right.”

When I cut it off, no more words came out.

But inside, there must be some uneasy feelings.

‘Don’t worry.’

Anyway, my goal is to conquer the tower.

Even if all the members of the same group were eliminated early, I was able to get a high score by myself.

‘Of course, this is true under the assumption that he conquered it.’

I had to break it anyway for the sake of compensation.

That’s because the reward for conquest was sweet.

After that, we started going up step by step, taking a little break each time we went up the floor.

If anything, it would be nice to get a good evaluation score, so it was a bonus to pay attention so that the members did not drop out.

“Let’s rest for today.”

“No one is eliminated!”

“I know. If you look at other teams, they were eliminated from the first day.”

If I didn’t care, one or two people on the 6th floor would have been eliminated, but I managed to save them.

Even then, I hadn’t used a sword, so my mastery of elemental magic was growing at a tremendous rate.

All of this was due to the abnormally high mana amount and mana recovery rate due to original sin.

“Aren’t you tired, senior?”

“uh. I have a peculiar constitution, so I think I have a lot of mana.”

“Wow, I’m jealous.”

We prepared a bed in the vacant lot in front of the stairs going up to the 7th floor.

It was possible because all the threats on the 6th floor had already been removed.

“All of us are on the 6th floor, and tomorrow we will be on the 7th floor, so we must be in the top ranks already, right?”

“I know. If 7 people are on the 7th floor, it’s already 49 points. We have already surpassed the middle ranks.”

“This is all thanks to Adrias-senpai.”

It seems that there was no activity because he only used magic, but it was not true.

Using the experience of operating the special forces in my previous life and the information I already knew in the game, I gave a timely order and so far I haven’t made a single dropout.

My reputation within the crew was soaring without knowing how high it was, as if I had subtly sensed this invisible activity.

“Adrias, where the hell did you learn that? You know, making kids run and run and destroying monster formations.”

“I was interested. I studied when I was young.”

I answered Vincent’s question appropriately.

I thought that a small team fight would be rare in this world with the experience to catch up with me. Not to mention, what I was learning, mastering, and using were modern state-of-the-art strategies. It’s a science-proven strategy, so unless you’re a tactical genius, you won’t beat me in small skirmishes.

After a simple dinner, we decided on a night watch.

Even if all threats were removed, a vigil was indispensable as long as you slept outdoors.

With the help of my teammates, I was in charge of the first night watch, and I checked the potential of my elemental magic to evolve while keeping the embers of the bonfire alive.

[Adrias Cromwell’s Talent: 74% Evolvability of Elemental Magic (Primary)]

[Do you want to evolve?]

It was 30% when I first got it, so it went up to over 40% before I knew it.

If we keep going like this, by the time we left the Tower of Modras, it seemed like we would be able to pass 90%.

‘This is good, but now I want to acquire genius talent.’

Among the talents I have, the highest is the talent of a gifted person.

Youngjae alone is this much, but how strong will he become if he evolves into a genius?

‘Right now, combat talent is the most likely.’

Combat talent was a gifted talent, but it was the only talent that could be evolved.

It showed a whopping 41% potential for evolution, but the growth rate was slow, perhaps because it was definitely a gifted child.

“I hope it will be before I graduate.”

Before graduating, he had to raise his specs as much as possible and strengthen and add undead as well.

Unlike the Tower of Modras, the real ‘Tower’ could not see the situation inside, so there was no hesitation in the use of black magic.

‘Of course, it can only be used after all other members participating together have dropped out.’

Team up with people who will be graduating in the same year and enter together.

So, you can’t use it when other people see it.

After all, the time when I can use black magic is when I am left alone.

He was confident that he would remain until the end.

Now I am stronger than any other playable.

‘Only Diane can compare, in the current state.’

However, there was no worry because the growth rate of the guys who would grow up afterwards was also tremendous.

It’s just that me and Diene’s growth is a little abnormal.

So I organized my thoughts by myself and went out to light a bonfire.
