Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

Episode 120. Luna Pendragon

“Senior… … why?”

All around it was a sea of blood.

And they were all faces I knew.

“What is this… … .”

I hurriedly let go of the handle of the sword I was holding, but the stabbed character did not change.

“Lucia.”

Lucia, whose chest was pierced by Galaksur, was looking at me with a hopeless expression.

“Senior, why me?”

When her gaze turned to the floor, there was Vivian’s body.

And right next to it, Amy was also collapsed.

“The senior killed them all. everything, everything.”

this can’t be real

Let’s stay calm.

what happened to me?

‘Black smoke from Lethe’s temple?’

* * *

“Ha ha.”

I came to my senses.

As I looked around, the scene I had seen the other day was unfolding.

“Give it back!”

“Nope? Take it away!”

I heard the cries of children and shuddered at the terrible memories that followed.

A nightmare where everyone I knew was dead.

‘That’s why it’s a recurring nightmare… … .’

Is this what happens when you are enveloped in black smoke?

If I hadn’t experienced a situation similar to this once due to the barrier of indolence, it seemed that I would have been seriously burned.

Wouldn’t it be better to just die clean and come back?

for a moment. So what about Luna?

Luna looked up at the sky where she should have flown, but there was nothing there.

I waited for her for a while, but as she still didn’t seem to come, my anxiety grew.

‘Is it shocking? Or did something else happen?’

In the end, I decided to go find it myself and started walking in the direction where Luna had been seen.

-Kikkik!

“Rulf.”

Unexpectedly, Rulf came to me first.

Where is Luna going and only this guy is coming?

-Kikkik! Queek!

Rulf climbed on my body and started pointing somewhere.

After recognizing his intentions, I walked in the direction Rulf pointed out.

The deeper we went into the alley, the more gloomy it started.

Even the city, which seemed lively, seemed to have shadows.

It was a quiet place, as if only one part of the city was asleep.

I just quietly took a step on the street that was surrounded by silence as if everyone was asleep.

‘Is Luna’s starting point here?’

It doesn’t start in a very good place.

By the way, I don’t know where you are or what you’re doing.

While I was worried that something might be wrong, I felt someone’s gaze.

They were little children.

‘The exact opposite.’

Unlike the children who played on the street where I started, they were full of vigilance and pathetic. The time when I continued to walk, passing the eyes of such children.

“Oh man!”

I turned my head to the voice of a child calling me.

“Did you come back from the Fire Dragon Expedition?”

At the sudden question, I quietly shook my head.

“no. I didn’t fit in there.”

“Ah, that’s right.”

The expression on the child’s face, which seemed to be very disappointed, made me curious.

“Why did you ask?”

“yes? Oh, my father was taken away. Maybe… … .”

dragged? conscription?

Wasn’t it only mercenaries and knights participating?

Come to think of it, it was strangely chilly.

Even though it was a slum, there were very few people, so I asked the child again just in case.

“Have all the people here been taken away?”

“yes. All the adults participated in the expedition.”

The boy’s answer made me unknowingly frown.

I didn’t feel very good as I knew roughly how the results of the Fire Dragon Expedition would flow.

‘You must have failed. That’s why this city became the place where the Fire Dragon died.’

If the Fire Dragon’s expedition had been successful, there was no way that Kriebmacher would have come all this way and died.

There was a high probability that they were killed by the supernatural power of this dungeon, so all the people in this city were either dead or burnt to ashes… … .

I stopped thinking and looked at the child for a moment, then took my steps.

‘I’m just in the mood.’

I already knew they weren’t real people… … .

Even so, it was inevitable that he felt like a dog.

What the hell happened in this city?

Why did it become a dungeon?

As I thought about it, Rulf suddenly came down from my shoulder and ran somewhere.

It was a sudden action, but I took it as an action that Luna was nearby and immediately ran after Rulf.

“Luna.”

A corner with dark shadows like night.

Her hair, shining like stars, was disheveled.

Luna Pendragon.

She was in a deep sleep.

* * *

From the time I started to do something called memory.

He was always a loner.

‘Luna Pendragon. A child who has been cursed and blessed at the same time.’

Those are the first words I remember.

Even though I didn’t do anything… … .

An identity that has already been stigmatized.

“why… … ?”

I couldn’t tell.

I was just born that way.

However, there was no one by his side who was born this way.

Only the dead were roaming around.

“mom… … .”

had no family.

My mother, almost the only blood relative, was rarely with me all the time.

In the pain that had to be hidden as if it were hidden.

He was alive because he was born.

“Luna has to be strong to survive in this terrible world.”

From one day, I started to learn magic from my mother.

Dealing with my mother was still difficult, but just being with her made me happy.

As a result, his skills grew and the magic he learned was shining along with his special ability.

“Nice job. You’re my daughter, after all.”

The day I received compliments from my mom for the first time.

It was a night that I couldn’t even sleep because I was so happy.

One day when I grew up little by little and sometimes participated in meetings called assemblies and watched other people for the first time.

mother is dead

shoot it

It rained heavily that day.

When everything in the Aderyan Marsh, where the shelter is located, is stained with rain.

My mother, who was usually pale complexion.

With a face as white as thick fog.

appeared dead.

“You are Luna Pendragon.”

It was the first time I met Evan von Orleon.

He came to me holding his dead mother with both hands as if he were holding a princess.

No explanation was given.

How did my mother die, who died and where did she die?

He just quietly put her on the bed and stroked her head affectionately.

“To survive… … You have to be strong.”

I couldn’t understand Evan, who was looking at him with a sad expression.

I didn’t know who it was, and I didn’t know why he was carrying his mother.

Finally, speaking softly as if casting a spell, he vanished through the rain.

And so the last remaining blood relative passed away.

I spent the night shedding tears with the despair that I was left alone in this world.

“Soul Imprint.”

I couldn’t send it like this.

Fortunately, I was able to see that her spirit hadn’t left yet.

I used the soul imprint that said to use carefully.

“Now Mommy will be with you forever.”

My hands trembled and tears fell drop by drop.

he wasn’t stupid

Dead people are dead.

Although I knew that the soul was just a remnant.

Even so, I couldn’t let go of my mother because I couldn’t stand the loneliness.

Even though I knew it might hurt her.

Because the immature self couldn’t endure this world alone.

Let’s imprint mother’s soul like that… … .

The world feared him as a Warlock class wizard.

“A diabolical black sorceress who commands Luna Pendragon’s own mother’s soul!”

I laughed hard.

All you need is a mother anyway.

I don’t care what other people say

No matter what anyone says if it only soothes this loneliness… … .

I lived my life hiding my true feelings with a smile on my face.

In the days when I lived just because I was alive.

met him

“You cannot kill me.”

At first, I wasn’t interested in him at all.

It was all about the expectation that there might be a toy that could soothe this loneliness at the word that I had just found a page of indolence.

But the actions he showed afterwards.

Contrary to myself, who whined about being lonely every day but never had the courage to die.

More than anyone else, the will to live was burning, but the spark was visible in the figure of driving a knife into his chest without hesitation.

‘Adrias Cromwell.’

He took his own life and took it upon himself.

Maybe it wasn’t that kind of person that he longed for.

The meeting was brief, but the strong impression lasted for a while even after returning to the hiding place.

I quickly forgot about it because there was no link at all.

‘Adrias Cromwell.’

When I came out of the hiding place for the first time in a long time because of a job I was asked to do by chance.

When he found out that it was Adrias who killed Kyler, he felt a connection.

I wanted to get to know him.

I wanted to get closer to him through this incident.

If you are by his side, wouldn’t you be able to find the meaning of life like him?

maybe really maybe… … .

Wouldn’t it be possible to forget loneliness by his side?

The whole world ostracizes you.

Being checked by dark-hearted people called the assembly.

Among the people who hate themselves for just being born this way.

please.

save me

I don’t want to have these painful thoughts anymore.

please.

someone me… … .

“Luna.”

who… … ?

“Luna Pendragon.”

A voice I’m more familiar with now.

the owner of that voice.

“Come back together.”

A smile was made.

‘friend.’

* * *

It was warm.

I struggled not to wake up from this cozy state, but in the end I had no choice but to open my eyes at the slow sweeping hand.

The Milky Way was nestled inside the slowly opening eyelids.

“Did you sleep well?”

“friend… … .”

Luna was able to smile brightly because of a man whose eyes were like the Milky Way.

“I’m back.”

“I waited. I’m glad you’re okay.”

There was someone who worried about him and waited for him.

Now I’m not alone.

This fact alone made Luna happy.

Even though the experience might not seem like a big deal to others, she lay on his lap and looked up at the sky, thinking that she had done well to come out of hiding and find Adrias.

A new friend and only friend.

– Queek!

“Rulf! You were there too!”

Because this reality was so happy.

Rather, I wondered if it would be okay to repeat eternity here, but I shook my head.

‘I don’t want to see my friend having a hard time.’

Feeling the warmth of Adrias on your head.

Luna’s silvery white eyelashes trembled.

One day, I’m sure I’ll have to get out of this strange place.

At least for this moment, it was Luna who wanted it to last forever.
