CHAPTER 60 Finally It's Over

"So, if I were to wrap this up tight with a bow or whatever, I guess I'd say my armor, it was never a distraction or a hobby: it was a cocoon. And now, I'm a changed man. You can take away my house, all my tricks and toys. One thing you can't take away? I am Iron Man."

Tony Stark

Iron Man 3 (2013)

................

While I received so many notifications that I felt like I would get headaches, it was all over in under ten seconds. I stopped the cyclone because I didn't want to damage them so much that they couldn't become shadow soldiers.  

"Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

"COLLAAAAPSE!!!

Boom, boom, boom!

Their fall shook the ground.

WOOOSH-!

CRASH!

Pillars of fallen knights and mages created a destructive power of the cyclone, resulting in the structure being half obliterated.

And at the same time!

Clack-clack-clack-clack!

The ground shook.

The thousand-something knights and mages all fell down; they were quite literally ripped apart. Chunks of knights' and mages' weapons, along with the staff's walls and floor, fell down after the cyclone ended, creating a huge crater in the broken floor.

As I looked at mountains of metal and bones mixed with concrete.

As everything fell apart, the knights' armors and mages' bones that made up the composition of their bodies scattered about the ground in huge piles. However, I did not ease up.

As this was something new..

'Is it over? Or is something else coming?'

I held my fighting stance until the System's electronic sound rang.

Ding~

I waited in anticipation. Contrary to my thoughts, the System announced the end of the quest.

[You've defeated all the monsters of the testing room and cleared the waves at a single time. The waves have stopped. The Class Advancement Quest will now end.]

[Your class will be decided next.

Depending on the advancement points earned, you may advance to a higher class.]

Finally,

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whew-"

It wasn't a difficult fight, but a ton of them got on my nerves. However, aside from that, it seems to end this endless wave, I had to kill all of them simultaneously.

The result was a great success. Now, it was time to reap the rewards. I moved my gaze to the timer.

206:19:17

The timer had stopped. I managed to last nearly eight days and fourteen and a half hours. Not only that, in a quest where I just had to end, I actually went beyond the limits of the system and forced the dungeon to spawn endless waves of monsters, with each wave being stronger than the last one.

And I ended up killing all of them. The time I spent here was nearly 53 times more than the original story, and I ended up killing many more monsters than in the original. I also completed the quest itself. Thinking about just how many points I would earn and what more I could do with those points, my heart began to race.

[The Player's actions will be analyzed to determine the appropriate class.]

'Fine with me.'

If the System used my actions up until now to determine my class, there was little chance of me receiving a subclass or at least getting a space for it. It was welcome news.

[The presence of the Death God and Magic God follows wherever the Player goes. The road he walks is paved with corpses and mana, and the smell of blood follows in his wake. Player's greed to eat away everything.]

I looked at the new changes that were presented. The first was the mention of the Magic God, and the second was mana. I was very excited to know where it was proceeding.

[Wherever the user goes, a river of black blood and corpses follows.]

[Your desire for strength is etched on your soul enough to call on those wandering souls of the damned.]

"Well, that's new for sure."

"Well, it was all for leveling up…"

Whenever I entered an Instant Dungeon or even a normal Dungeon, I slaughtered the respawning monsters until I no longer leveled up. In a normal Dungeon, I combed every single corner to find the very last magic beast and kill it. And not that I instigated it, but I had killed a few Hunters and even normal people as well. And then I collected everything that I could find in the Dungeon, including corpses and souls.

Death god, corpses, smell of blood.

Magic God, mana.

Eating everything.

"No matter how you analyze that…"

"A river of black blood."

"Calling Souls of Damn!"

"[The Player yearns for great power and has achieved a phenomenal power beyond mortal grasp, without any help from outside, putting their life in danger for the greed of more power.

But without relying on any comrades, they build their own path with their own strength.]

Now, those just seem to be the wrong words, implying that I have some kind of hunger for power.

No, I just want to live a happy, fulfilling life.

But on the other hand, I can understand why people would think of me as power-hungry or megalomaniacal or something.

I nodded along as I listened. I mostly agreed with the System's analysis of me.

'From the start, I never had anyone to rely on.'

The System continued,

[Your greed for more and greater power is strong enough to call upon the spirits that wander the valley of death. Through the army of the dead that will follow your every command, you will be able to build your own path without anyone's help.]

[You fight with both hands and magic, being both a mage and a warrior, getting the best of both worlds yet specializing in neither, being a Fighter/Wizard mix that can play as both but is not as good as either of them.]"

What?

What do you mean specializing in neither? Here I am trying to specialize in magic, yet you're telling me I am good at neither of them...

I throw punches because I don't want to be a weak, pathetic baby who would cry as soon as my mana runs out.

I am also not a fan of throwing punches when you can shape reality to your whim. I am throwing myself into combat because of a simple quote, 'The more you mess around, the more you find out.'

Here I am mastering magic, and you're telling me I do not specialize in either of them.

I blankly stared at the immediate insult and dumbfounded expression.

'But, yes, that's right, baby... Motherfucking Army of the dead?'

The System used the calm tone it always used to relay the results.

Your class is the Necromancer.

Your class is the Necromancer.

The message still floated in front of me, and I had wide eyes. After all, it finally happened.

Of all the Mage-class Hunters, there is no Necromancer in this world, at least not a human one. But even though he was living on borrowed time, a demon...

This was one of the greatest classes in fiction, and I am not only going to become a Necromancer but even surpass them...

"A distasteful mage followed by an undead army, proficient in death, dark, unholy, and a few other magics.

Seeing my excitement getting out of control, I relaxed my scrunched face and shook my head.

'...For now, let's calm down.'

Even if my thoughts were in chaos, I would approach the situation calmly. This calmness was one of my weapons. Taking a moment, I was able to find my composure.

"The problem necromancers have is that the army would be composed of soldiers made of bones and corpses.'

Taking that into the real world would turn society upside down. Hunters were already the target of envy and fear. Imagine if a Hunter led an 'Army of the Dead' around. Forget compatibility; of course, it does not affect me in the slightest.

Plus, I know I am getting much more than just a simple necromancer, and even more…

Ding~

Would you like to accept the class?

The System asked for my reply.

"Of course, baby, I do. Who wouldn't? This is the thing I have been preparing for since I came here."

Little by little, my heart began to race.

Again comes the fact that I am mastering magic, but I am different from those mages. What would happen if the summoner who led an army also maintained great individual might? And could assist his army behind the lines by throwing overpowered spells. It would truly be a nightmare for his enemies.

'If it could be like that…'

The fleeting idea that was like a dream to me. And with the power to level up not just myself but also my servants, they could become monsters beyond EX ranks, even reaching the divine realm within my reach. With this, as the multiverse is filled with overpowered people, I see it as having even more overpowered servants.

Imagine creatures from HP Lovecraft as my servants, or Godzilla, King Kong, Galileans, Atomix, Chronosapiens, Anodites, To'kustars, Pyronites, Chronosapiens, Y Ddraig Goch, Albion, Rayquaza, Mewtwo, Kyogre, Groudon, Regigigas, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Gugalanna, Kurama, Gyūki, Chōmei, Kaijus, Titans, Gods, Demons, Angels, Devils, or any powerful being or god as my servants.

It might even be possible for me to kill beings like Celestials, Cthulhu, Celestialsapiens, or any cosmic god and even have them in my army.

To even solo them and more. I gulped. If I could continue to raise my abilities after becoming a Shadow Monarch, which I naturally would, the army under me would also become stronger and stronger. The synergy of growth surpassed my mortal monkey brain's imagination.

'It's not just solo leveling. It's Monster Collecting.'

My army would level with me.

A chill ran down my back. I looked up at the floating message. It quietly waited for my reply.

Would you like to accept the class?

"Alright. Give me more power, give me the power of death."

Hmm, I've never been particularly strong, so the fighter is out. I should spend a lot of time thinking about the pros and cons of each choice, but really. Magic? Fuck yes. I don't feel like playing as a support class, so Mage it is.

Necromancer. I like the idea of turning my foes into allies, and necromancers usually have some death magic attacks.

As if waiting, the System immediately sent the next

Ding~

You've accepted your class.

Depending on the advancement points earned, you may advance to a higher class.

The points will be calculated now.

Calculating...

While the System calculated, I clenched my grip so hard that welts appeared on my palm.

"The System rang.

Ding~

I raised my head in response.

You've surpassed the expected time limit!

Extra points are awarded.

You've surpassed the expected time limit! By a far margin!

Double extra points are awarded.

Extra points. And double extra points. Well, it makes sense.

'Not sure what the expected time limit was, but I did last for quite a long time. So long that the dungeon started to spawn waves of monsters just to get rid of me.

I chuckled in satisfaction, but then suddenly, numerous messages appeared before my eyes.

You did not use the Instant Return Stone!

Extra points are awarded.

Your current health is 100%!

Extra points are awarded.

Forced Dungeon to spawn waves of monsters.

Extra points are awarded.

You've defeated all enemies!

Extra points are awarded.

The Dungeon had spawned waves of monsters. You've defeated all of them!

Triple extra points are awarded.

The aggregate advancement points have far surpassed the required amount.

As agreed, two special rewards will be provided.

A huge amount of advancement points has been accumulated, and the remaining system has prepared a mystery box for the player with the remaining advancement points.

The mystery box has been placed inside the inventory.

Ding~ Ding~ Ding~

"Yes, but what?"

The repeating tone was piercing to the ears, but the sound didn't even register in my mind as my gaze was fixed on three specific words.

"Two Special Rewards?"

Reward. The first "Special" one.

My hands, which were gripping each other, froze, and my eyes stared at the message box. I couldn't look away. The message continued.

Ding~

You have advanced from Necromancer to Monarch of Shadows.

You've learned class-specific skills.

Due to the large number of advancement points, class-specific skills have been boosted.

...….

"Holy hell Got more than 150 power stones in just two day" - Remark.

Now, now, Stop being a horny cuck that reads harem (Which you are reading🤫💀☠️😜) and invest all of your stones in me!!! =)))
