Chapter 3: Kapua’s Ghost

Sponsored by Ser4, TLC by Enlightened End

Nu Kapua village increased

“Looksssss, likeeeee, weeeee, didddd, allllll, theeeee, workkkkk”

Otem spoke with a hint of discontent but he didn’t hate it so much because many players looked at theh wisdoic spells that others couldn’t use!

In case of Necromancers, it was directly related to the number and types of Undeads that could be suhts in rank and file seemed much better and awesome compared to an unorderly line of skeletons and zo skeleton sceptor along with coe

Weed proible Slayer

<tbody>Monster assault of Kapua cool’s invasion was repulsed

-Undead Army will revalue the existence of Ghosts

Revaluation: Still noisy, annoying and useless but can be helpful sometimes

-Fame +101

-Power of Undead +14

-Gained experience

Obtain permission to enter Kapua Castle

</tbody>Since other players weren’t talking about entering the castle, it seems like Weed was the first one“Battle supplies are stacked in the castle…”

An expectation that it will be filled with full of Undead weapons and equipe this easily

Less than five players chose to becoht so he stood out

Not only did he battle atop his phantom horse, his mettle and charisma made monsters shi+ver in fear

It wasn’t that host that spread terror, weak ht back

The scene ofin fear of death when Weed was si at them on top his phantoet curious

-HUEEEEEEEE

-EEEEEEEEEEEK!

Therefore Weed went to the castle byin with monsters when the battle was about to be finished

THUMP THUMP THUMP!

Monsters haate with steel hammers

Skeleton soldiers in the castle killed theoil on them

The battle wasn’t easy even with the increased number of players and summoned Undeads

As more supplies head to the castle, more monsters were attracted to it

‘Oh you lovely experience and iteed to reach the castle were fairly high in level

Green creatures with their heads bulging out like crocodiles, they were either Furgol’s mid-co his sword on his horse, these Furgols fell spraying green body fluids

“Iiiiii, Loveeeeee, youuuuuu, exxxxxxxx, periiiiiii, enceeeeeeee”

Weed made a confession and killed them without any hesitation!

As a Warrior and not a Necromancer, his stamina didn’t drop at all

On his horse, Weed rushed forith 15 chain strikes

It was extremely hard to hit with a continous pin point accuracy when riding on top of the phanto by thefocus, ment, wide vision, and control of breaths

‘Items, items, items, items, items’

Weed slashed continuously in a rhythm

15 chain strike cannot be stopped in the middle Therefore you need to handle your horse precisely

His phantoave absolute obedience to hihter

So it followed Weed’s lead

<tbody>

-Maxi speed reachedØWith speed the enemy cannot resist you have inflicted a critical hitØAttack increased by 245

</tbody>

Because he was slashi+ng h speed, most of attacks lead to critical strike with additional increase in attack points

Spear on the other hand could release a super strong destructive poith a penetrating force but it was not useful for a continuous attacks

The sword slashed the ht to behold

Increasing the y he slayed anyin synchronization with his horse

“Runnnnnn!”

Weed and his horse, united as one, ran towards the steel gate

He could get fatal dae due to the crash!+

But Weed and his phantoate

<tbody>

-You have the right to enter Kapua CastleØThe castle defenders will not attack youØYou have passed through the thick castle gateØBy passing through an obstacle, health and mana decrease by 2000 each

</tbody>NEIGHHHH!Beyond that castle gate, he could see ghosts of skeleton soldiers in a line

It looked like they were in a defensive forate was penetrated

Weed pulled the bridle with full force gradually slowing down the phanto hard the horse breathed heavily, snorting and clopping the ground with his hooves The skeleton ghost soldier approached and spoke, raising his broken rusty sword

“Welllll, comeeeee, toooooo, Kaaaaaa, puuuuu, ahhhh, caaaaaa, stleeeeee”

Taking a look around Kapua Castle, Weed was able to see all kinds of ghosts

Frohts, soldiers, archers, and villagers

Even a ghost of a etttt, ingggg, dirttttt, eeeeee Mayyyyy, beeeee, Iiiiiii, donttttttt, haveeeeee, tooooo,to listen to theers

Soldiers kept co all war’s co was Balkan Deht they were all screwed but having ghosts defending the castle, the Undead Ar force’

Weed felt sorry for a bit as with several quests he may have been able to take all of this if he came here as Lich shi+re

It wasn’t an easy decision to give up a quest that was assigned to only one person, Weed

But the possibility of shi+re’s quest being tilted to the evil side wasfor the Undead Army he could still stop and quit any time

The body of Undead could be fixed by benediction at the Freya order

Regardless, hunting grounds here, flood with monsters, were excellent and Undeads were constantly enhanced due to Balkan’s Death Aura

For Weed, he was able to wield er power and that was reason he was still continuing with this quests and hunts

‘It’s definitely not because of the money I have to pay to the Freya order’

Weed went up the tower

See battle

If e, their next objectives would become this castle

If the castle collapsed completely, the chain quest would failed, and who knoould happen next?

‘Anyways, I should get back to the village after a quick look’

There were e than inside Kapua castle

You couldn’t let your guard down just becauseup

As battle supplies were piling up in the castle, e

In the village, players hunting thea conversation in their party chat roouy since a while ago

Harien : He chased the uess he hasn’t couy is thinking not choosing a class with Undead su skills when he is a Necro

Bohra decision It looked like he hasn’t been able to hunt that many monsters

To be honest, these players didn’t really have a chance to spectate Weed’s hunt

First of all, they had to make sure that their summoned Undeads don’t act as they please and obstacles blocked their view of Weed

Also there were e so they couldn’t keep their eyes specifically on Weed

If there was a cleric who is supposed to grasps the party members or battle situations, they would have noticed Weed’s sneaky s to do

Harien : By the way, Jeanne is truly a more than two of us co seven additional Death Knights,that her Necromancers skill has reached interoleh as well

Since these Necromancers had same occupations, they were more a competitors rather than co-operators So they were busy spectating the best Necromancer, Jeanne

Bohram : Is it just me did the experiences increased a bit?

Harien : I had the sa Even the items, they are more useful items drops now

Lee Hyun wanted to yell out in joy

‘Finally it’s over’

With the last exam taken care of, it was the start of the winter breaks

The campus was covered with romantic white snow but he was just happy that he didn’t have to co

Other students were chatting in the hallway

“Hoas it?”

“Introduction to virtual-society ay too hard I totally messed it up”

It was all irrelevant to Lee Hyun

‘As long as I don’t fail’

He was pretty optirades

Lee Hyun saw Seo Yoon sitting on a bench as he was trying to head home in a hurry

Even in her winter outfit, her beautiful looks drew the e, outstanding looks, attractively tall and guaranteed future lying ahead

Lee Hyun didn’t feel at ease hanging around with Seo Yoon

“Some fresh a meal with her?”

“He is a freshman but I heard he’s a little too old to be a freshuy like hi around the campus

Even the seniors in the faculty of Virtual Reality looked at Lee Hyun with discoave in to these kinds of views about him

He just hoped this drea

‘She doesn’t deserve a guy like uy that would be perfect for her will appear

All he had to do wassure she talks and protect her until she did not fear human interaction anymore

Seo Yoon spotted Lee Hyun and stood up

She walked toward him with rosy cheek perhaps caused by cold weather

“Were you waiting for me?”

Seo Yoon nodded at his question and then spoke

“Because of the winter trip”

Her words were beco more natural

Lee Hyun didn’t rabbed her hand and pulled open her heart to the world

Every time Seo Yoon spoke to him, she embraced the expectation and romance

“Yeah, trip, huh”

Lee Hyun clearly remembered what he said before

Seo Yoon said she want to go on a trip with hi to seashore but he told her it would cost a million Won, which was complete nonsensical excuse to avoid the trip

“Well, proreeht”

“I wanted to take a trip anyway Plus I’m on a break noith plenty of time”

She smiled in a happy, yet aay

Of course Lee Hyun was planning to devote all of his tie was super fast corounds

With plenty of quests, it was the best place to raise experience

Lee Hyun continued softly

“A prouess I’ive you a rain check”

Lee Hyun was trying to delay this trip indefinitely

Suddenly, Seo Yoon opened her bag and grabbed out money

“I earned expenses for the trip”

It was at least 6 million Won

To think that she earned this much in just little bit more than one month!

“Did you sell your items?”

He didn’t think of it when he made his promises but if Seo Yoon sold her equipment in Royal Road, it would be a piece of cake to earn thatpacked lunches”

Seo Yoon earned this money purely with labour

On her hand where she was showing the etting cut and burning herself while cooking

A woot hurt and exhausted for o with s Lee Hyun couldn’t possibly reject her

____________________________________________________

Lee Hyun decided to go on the trip after 4 days

Now that he was really going, there were sopan, a pot, a burner… It would be nice to s in advance And sikhye in a plastic bottle just in case we become thirsty”

If he was on a trip alone, he could just bilk a restaurant He didn’t want a way-too-luxury trip

She earned the money in a hard way He couldn’t possibly have the luxury of wasting it

Sesa rod should be enough

If he catches some fish on the spot, then meal was ready

“I should prepare so”

Even in a deserted island, it wasyour house was suffering, it also costs money

He couldn’t possibly understand why she would want to take a trip but to save as much as he can, 4 days later was just ok

“Monday should be less expensive avoiding the weekend peak prices”

After he arranged everything, he went into the capsule

It was time for Royal Road

Weed spotted scibbles while wandering in Kapua castle

I saw sos that humans enjoy, dumped?

There is a path next to the bookshelf…

It was an enigmatic scibble about hidden treasures in the castle

If you can solved the uess it’s worth co here first’

Before other players ca infor treasures in chimneys, sewer, and stable

These relics were as old as it can possibly get so you can call it antiques if you wanted to!

Treasures worth hundreds, thousands of gold gave great satisfaction to Weed

‘Ghost’s body is just perfect for a scavenger hunt’

As long as you knew the exact location, it was easy to find it since he could just go through any obstacles

He found itehost’s specialty

The girl I saw at dahat did she lose that she cried so sadly?

With this quote indown the hallway fast

And by finding her lost doll, he got an enchanted necklace in return

<tbody>Necklace of the Undead

Durability: 29/43

-Necklace that contains strength of Undead’s growth

Restrictioin: Necromancers Only

Option: Necromancers skill level +1

Effect of Summoned Undead +8

</tbody>

Items that benefits Necromancers were very rare

That hy Necroician’s equipment but Weed just obtained an ite skill

After sunrise, Weed turned into human and ca sure Kapua castle was safe, he used Picture Teleportation in a sained er even after sunrise

“Power of Undead increase a lot with the quests and battles”

Weed didn’t consider Power of Undead to be a burden except when he wassculpture it was a erous stat that made the Necromancers special

He learned exactly what the Power of Undead did in a conversation between Necroain”

“Already at ht it was an awesome stat…”

“The dizzinessspells”

Not only does Power of Undead enhance Undeads, it strengthens the power of dark er and coic

That is why Warlocks are treated with icians

In case of Weed, it enhanced his strength and agility when he was hunting as Undead

Superior stat that grows on its oith quests and battles!
