The Exiled Necromancer Wants To Create a Bone Dragon

32 – Monster Hunter.

When Ed Hwan-hwan wandered around Lesand’s base, the hunters’ eyes continued to follow him. A disparate being called a necromancer and a paladin, those two drew people’s attention, but they tried to ignore them and checked the location of the main buildings in the base.

There were six hunter guilds and eleven dismantling centers. The restaurant or inn was quite large compared to the number of Hunters living in the base, and the brothel was also quite large. Several churches were set up in case of serious injury, but the Church of Truth was not there. In the case of the Church of Truth, they were specialized in gathering information or making judgments by getting them to rise to high positions and telling the truth, so fighting monsters was not their speciality.

Ed and his party stopped by the processing shop and asked about the market price of Desert Lizard. They were a little wary when they heard that the owner of the processing shop was also a necromancer. Most southern monster leather is used as a high-quality material, so it is expensive to make into things like bags. In the case of the desert lizard that Ed hunted, the skin is sold, but the bones are used as equipment and the flesh is said to be made into quite tasty meat, but the owner of the processing plant told me that there are only a few parts to eat.

‘Monsters are much better than monsters.’

Because the flesh of northern monsters is contaminated, it is not recommended to use them for food, so the only useful parts were the bones and the horns possessed by junior and Gigant level monsters.

In the case of bones, since it is a strange monster with bones from all kinds of creatures, it was dismantled and redistributed to make a skeleton. Among them, the bones of the big and fast guys were combined to make a Skeleton Knight. Since Ed had borrowed a Death Knight and a Skeleton Knight and used them, the production methods were all practiced at the academy.

And monster horns were a valuable material in Necropolis. The monster’s horns had strong mana, and by grinding them, artisans could make subspace equipment. Ed knew that if Ed had more monster horns than the 7th grade necromancer license, the level of the subspace would increase, and the special grade necromancer license would contain more than 10 gigant level monster horns.

‘If there is a material that has strong mana like monster horns, it would be nice to increase the sub-space, but can I get it?’

Ed felt a bit regretful that the production of magical tools remained at the level of Terut Academy. Even at the academy, he paid a lot of attention to combat to overcome the summons’ maximum command distance of 25 meters, so he often solved the rest of the tasks by hanging out with other friends.

‘And yet, he managed to keep the senior position.’

Ed closed his eyes in an inn room kept cool by magic tools. It seemed that I would not have enough time to touch the Desert Lizard’s bones from tomorrow.

“It’s not possible.”

In the morning, I stopped by the dismantling station, put the Desert Lizard’s bones in a cart, and returned to the inn, but the inn owner blocked me at the entrance.

“It’s a little uncomfortable that the guest is a necromancer, but doing something with that bone is a bit… Since there are guests staying at the inn, can you show a little restraint?”

“Is that so? I understand. Is there a large vacant lot or a place to work? I just wish I could escape the heat.”

“The Hunter Guild owns a large piece of land, so can we talk to them?”

“Um. I see.”

Ed wasn’t particularly thinking about belonging to a guild, but he thought of a good place to work. I thought it would be okay if it was a place where Desert Lizard was dismantled, so I ordered the skeleton pulling the cart to turn it around. Arebijou, who was standing by, asked Ed.

“Ed, where are you going?”

“Let’s go to the place where we dismantled it. It’s quite spacious there.”

When I stopped by to get the bones, they weren’t dismantling other monsters, so I thought I could just pay the rental fee and rent a dismantling station. Seeing Ed return to the dismantling plant, the father-in-law tilted his head.

“You would have handed over all of them without missing a single bone?

“I’m trying to assemble it, but I was rejected at the inn, so can I borrow this place for a while?”

“Hmm. Hunters usually come back in the afternoon, so until then it’s fine.”

“And by any chance, can I borrow a carving knife?”

“Should I be paying the rental fee for this?”

“I’ll give you the right amount.”

After returning to the dismantling plant, Ed ordered a skeleton to open the Desert Lizard’s bones. The large bones were easy to place, but a few of the smaller bones were slightly misplaced. The artisan, who had been watching the scene, quietly approached and positioned the bones properly.

“Thank you, sir.”

“Well. I have to pay for seeing something amazing. But isn’t this like a necromancer’s vision? Can I see it?”

“It’s okay because it’s the basics. There’s also a paladin, right?”

“Right.”

At the mention of him, Arebijou smiled and nodded slightly, but for some reason he wanted to separate from the two people who matched well.

‘If Ed isn’t going out, he’ll be with Glowyn… . Because I’m casually touching the bone… .’

It’s been over a week since I was traumatized by Ed’s appearance, and after spending time with him, I’ve developed some tolerance. As a necromancer, the way he touched the bones without resistance made me feel a little distant, but seeing him smile slightly while putting the bones together with the skeleton made my heart pound.

The moment the Desert Lizard’s bones were back in their original positions, Ed nodded slightly with a satisfied smile, then stretched out his hand and glanced at the bones in the air. And a rotten smell rose up.

“Suck?!”

Arebizu immediately covered his nose with his left hand and retreated, unconsciously placing his right hand on the handle of the sword on his left waist. The father-in-law was familiar with the rotten smell, so he just frowned and asked Ed.

“Didn’t you catch it yesterday? Suddenly it smells rotten?”

“Yes. I used a curse to leave only white bones. This is how I can get only bones perfectly.”

The curse of decay that Ed had applied to the bones of the Desert Lizard continued until the rotting smell was completely gone. Arebijou stood a little far away from Ed, who was working, and watched him, while the craftsman watched Ed raise his carving knife.

‘I used to make it in the North.’

If you make a sword of ice and engrave a pattern on it, the perfection of the skeleton is greatly improved. It was probably because it was connected with Ed’s mana, so the core settled better than the skeleton made by someone else, and it reminded me of how I got a good score because of that.

“Let’s do it.”

-square. square. square.

In the dismantling plant, only the sound of Ed cutting bones could be heard. Arrebijou was staring blankly at Ed, who was concentrating on the skeleton, and the father-in-law thought it was boring and went to sleep in the sleeping room inside the dismantling center.

‘Skeletons are complicated.’

Arrebijou was quite surprised to see Ed immediately raise the dead Desert Lizard back up. Necromancers can supply and demand troops that easily. If a necromancer like that came down from the north and made the army infinite, how should we deal with it? Glowyn and I talked a little at night, and after Glowyn fell asleep first, I thought about that.

But I realized that it was for nothing. It seemed like it took quite a long time to make a proper skeleton, and it seemed like I had to stay focused.

-square. square. square.

Arebizou tried to close his eyes slightly, using the sound of Ed cutting bones as white noise, but opened his eyes to the sound of footsteps at the door of the dismemberment yard. As I approached the entrance with the intention of excluding anyone who would disturb Ed, I saw a woman with purple hair smiling and waving her hand.

“I heard you were here. I brought you something to drink. Let’s eat together.”

Arebizu said after seeing Glowin holding drinks for four people, including his father-in-law’s share.

“Mr. Ed is concentrating….”

“Oh, really? I’ll be quiet.”

Glowyn said, holding her index finger lightly to her mouth. And I could hear Ed cutting bones in the dismantling plant that I entered quietly. Watching Ed work on half of his spine, Glowwin quickly calculated the time it took.

It was 8:00 when Ed and Arebijou left the inn, 30 minutes after returning to the inn and going back to the dismantling plant, and now it is almost 11:30, so it can be said that more than half of the work was done in 3 hours.

‘Approximately 5 hours to complete, I don’t know if it’s fast.’

Anyway, now that she has something to report to Carla, Glowyn calmly drank her drink.

Arebijou also took out a cup and drank it while quietly watching Ed work.

“Okay…”

Ed, who had finished working all the way down to his legs and tailbone, sighed and stood up. Arrebijou and Glowyn, who met Ed’s eyes, smiled awkwardly and nodded.

“Are you done?”

“Yes. It’s been a while, so it’s fun. What about your father-in-law?”

“Ed started working and went to bed. Have a glass of Ed.”

Arrebijou answered while handing him a drink, and Ed took it with a slight bow of his head.

“I’ll eat well.”

“Ed, I bought it.”

Ed smiled slightly when Glowyn revealed her presence.

“I knew it. Mr. Glowyn, did you buy it at the teahouse you went to yesterday?”

“I was fine yesterday. Should I stay in Les Sands and keep changing teahouses?”

Ed gulped down his drink and returned the cup to Glowwin.

“Then I’ll wake you up.”

Glowyn clapped her hands lightly, and Arebijou clapped her hands in a daze. As a paladin who believes in the goddess Trillia, I wondered if it was okay to watch dead monsters regain their strength, but the desire to see them was stronger.

Ed reached out to the area corresponding to the Desert Lizard’s chest and injected mana into it. Mana spread out along the path Ed had created, and all the bones connected with a rattling sound. And as the mana continued to be injected, a lump of black mana began to form a core in the chest, and when a black crystal-like thing appeared, the Desert Lizard stood up.

Because it was made entirely of bones, the two women felt more awkward than the zombie they had used yesterday, but Ed was more familiar with this one. Ed hit the skeleton’s back hard with his hand, but the bones only shook slightly and did not break apart.

“If you fit the saddle, you can ride. It’s a success.”

Glowyn said to Ed while stroking the Skeleton Desert Lizard with shining eyes.

“Now you can go farther and faster than other people?”

“Yes. We have to catch strong guys from far away. We’ll make Arrebijou-san’s one soon.”

“Ahahahaha… yes.”

Arebizu was reluctant to ride that thing, but quickly gave up after realizing that he had to keep riding it in order to keep an eye on Ed and until Lessand accepted him.

‘I’ll be the first paladin to ride a skeleton… .’

Most of them would think that the first one was good, but I couldn’t like Arebijou all that much.
