Chapter 3: Kapua’s Ghost
Number of Necromancers
players, turned ghost, protecting 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
them with envy and admiration.
Magicians respect high
wisdom and intelligence.
It allowed abundant
mana and magic spells that others couldn’t use!
In case of Necromancers,
it was directly related to the number and types of Undeads that could be
summoned.
Summoning dozens
of Dullahans or Death Knights in rank and file seemed much better and awesome
compared to an unorderly line of skeletons and zombies.
Number of ghosts
that swung skeleton sceptor along with companion golems increased in Kapua
village.
Weed promoted
again, becoming Untangible Slayer.
· Monster Assault of Kapua completed - Furgol’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. |
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 equipment!
But Weed couldn’t
leave the village this easily.
Less than five players
chose to become ghost knight so he stood out.
Not only did he
battle atop his phantom horse, his mettle and charisma made monsters shiver in
fear.
It wasn’t that
much when he was a human but now that he was a ghost that spread terror, weak
monsters couldn’t even fight back.
The scene of
monsters trembling in fear of death when Weed was simply staring at them on top
his phantom horse!
Other Necromancers
couldn’t help but get curious.
-HUEEEEEEEE
-EEEEEEEEEEEK!
Therefore Weed
went to the castle by mixing in with monsters when the battle was about to be
finished.
THUMP THUMP THUMP!
Monsters hammered
on the castle gate with steel hammers.
Skeleton soldiers
in the castle killed the monsters by shooting arrows and pouring boiling oil 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 items.’
Monsters that managed
to reach the castle were fairly high in level.
Green creatures
with their heads bulging out like crocodiles, they were either Furgol’s
mid-commander or assault captains.
Every time Weed
swung 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 forward with 15 chain strikes.
It was extremely
hard to hit with a continous pin point accuracy when riding on top of the phantom horse running full speed and passing by the monsters.
It required
terrifying focus, momentary judgment, 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 phantom horse
wasn’t a legendary horse but it gave absolute obedience to him as a high-rank
ghosts and also enjoyed the slaughter.
So it followed Weed’s
lead.
- Maximum charging speed reached. Ø With speed the enemy cannot resist you have inflicted a critical hit. Ø Attack increased by 245% |
Because he was
slashing monsters at while moving at a high 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 power with a penetrating force
but it was not useful for a continuous attacks.
The sword slashed
the monsters around in arcs was a truly beautiful sight to behold.
Increasing the
mana consumption and energy he slayed any monsters near him, riding in synchronization
with his horse.
“Runnnnnn!”
Weed and his
horse, united as one, ran towards the steel gate.
He could get fatal
damage due to the crash!
But Weed and his
phantom horse turned into mists and passed through the steel gate.
- You have the right to enter Kapua Castle Ø The castle defenders will not attack you. Ø You have passed through the thick castle gate. Ø By passing through an obstacle, health and mana decrease by 2000 each. |
NEIGHHHH!
Beyond that castle
gate, he could see ghosts of skeleton soldiers in a line.
It looked like they
were in a defensive formation just in case the gate was penetrated.
Weed pulled the bridle
with full force gradually slowing down the phantom horse to a stop.
NEIGH
After riding 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.
From ghosts of
noble and dukes to ghosts knights, soldiers, archers, and villagers.
Even a ghost of a
maid was moping a hall.
“Ittttt, keepssss,
getttt, ingggg, dirttttt, eeeeee. Mayyyyy, beeeee, Iiiiiii, donttttttt,
haveeeeee, tooooo, moppppp, ittttt?”
It was annoying to
listen to them but Weed strive to converse with the maids and the villagers.
Soldiers kept
complaining about monsters invading and the duke was getting all warmed up for
battles at the king’s command.
In this context,
the king was Balkan Demoph, the King of Undeads.
‘I thought they
were all screwed but having ghosts defending the castle, the Undead Army is
pretty an amazing 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 Shire.
It wasn’t an easy
decision to give up a quest that was assigned to only one person, Weed.
But the possibility
of Shire’s quest being tilted to the evil side was most likely.
Even though he was
fighting for 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 much stronger 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.
Seemed like
monsters were invading as there was an ongoing battle.
If monsters got
through the village, their next objectives would become this castle.
If the castle collapsed
completely, the chain quest would failed, and who knows what would happen next?
‘Anyways, I should
get back to the village after a quick look.’
There were more
opportunities of fighting monsters in the village than inside Kapua castle.
You couldn’t let
your guard down just because more players were showing up.
As battle supplies
were piling up in the castle, more and more monsters swarmed toward the village.
_________________________________________________
In the village, players
hunting the monsters were having a conversation in their party chat room.
Bohram : I haven’t
seen the ghost skeleton guy since a while ago.
Harien : He chased
the monsters going towards the castle but I guess he hasn’t come back.
Varenna : I don’t
know what that guy is thinking not choosing a class with Undead summoning
skills when he is a Necromancers. But he seemed pretty strong.
Bohram : Still,
that’s a wrong 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
many ghosts in the village 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 movements but Necromancers just had too many
things to do.
Harien : By the
way, Jeanne is truly amazing. She is performing more than two of us combined.
Bohram : I just
saw her summoning seven additional Death Knights, meaning that her Necromancers
skill has reached intermediate level 4.
Gruzed : the
golem-related skill level looked high 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
same feeling. 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
come back here until spring.
Other students
were chatting in the hallway.
“How was it?”
“Introduction to
virtual-society was way too hard. I totally messed it up.”
It was all irrelevant
to Lee Hyun.
‘As long as I
don’t fail.’
He was pretty
optimistic about his grades.
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 male students toward her.
Incomparable
lineage, outstanding looks, attractively tall and guaranteed future lying
ahead.
Lee Hyun didn’t
feel at ease hanging around with Seo Yoon.
“Some freshman
named Lee Hyun in faculty of Virtual Reality is having a meal with her?”
“He is a freshman
but I heard he’s a little too old to be a freshman.”
“Why in the world
is she hanging out with guy like him?”
There were so many
rumors floating around the campus.
Even the seniors
in the faculty of Virtual Reality looked at Lee Hyun with discomfort.
But Lee Hyun wasn’t
someone who gave in to these kinds of views about him.
He just hoped this
dream of her wouldn’t last so long.
‘She doesn’t
deserve a guy like me.’
Someday, an
awesome guy that would be perfect for her will appear.
All he had to do
was making sure 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
becoming more natural.
Lee Hyun didn’t
mind it so much but to her he was the very person who grabbed 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 him.
It was a simple
trip heading to seashore but he told her it would cost a million Won, which was
complete nonsensical excuse to avoid the trip.
“Well, promises
exist to be kept.”
Seo Yoon nodded in
agreement.
“Yes, that’s
right.”
“I wanted to take
a trip anyway. Plus I’m on a break now with plenty of time.”
She smiled in a
happy, yet awkward way.
Of course Lee Hyun
was planning to devote all of his time in Royal Road.
The hunting speed
in Kapua Village was super fast compared to any other hunting grounds.
With plenty of
quests, it was the best place to raise experience.
Lee Hyun continued
softly.
“A promise is a
promise. I’m just as sad as you are but I guess I’m going have to give 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 that much.
“I earned by
selling packed lunches.”
Seo Yoon earned
this money purely with labour.
On her hand where
she was showing the money, he could see blisters.
And some scars
from getting cut and burning herself while cooking.
A woman who never
had a hard time got hurt and exhausted for money.
“Will you go with
me?”
With mixed
feelings 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 so many things to pack.
“A frying pan, a
pot, a burner… It would be nice to make Kimbap and boiled eggs 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.
Sesame oil,
kimchi, seaweed, fresh vegetables and a fishing rod should be enough.
If he catches some
fish on the spot, then meal was ready.
“I should prepare
some more just in case I think of something.”
Even in a deserted
island, it was more than enough to survive!
Leaving your 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 something
shiny.
.Why are there… so
many things 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 mystery then you could find the treasures!
‘I guess it’s
worth coming here first.’
Before other players
came, Weed scouted the castle.
Collecting
information from maids and servants, finding 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 items in
between bricks and behind a staircase using ghost’s specialty.
.The girl I saw at
dawn, what did she lose that she cried so sadly?.
With this quote in
mind, he met a female ghost child running down the hallway fast.
And by finding her
lost doll, he got an enchanted necklace in return.
· 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% |
Items that
benefits Necromancers were very rare.
That was why Necromancers
often equip magician’s equipment but Weed just obtained an item that increase Undead
summoning skill.
After sunrise,
Weed turned into human and came back to Morata with Yurin’s help.
After making sure Kapua
castle was safe, he used Picture Teleportation in a small room to move about.
But as he gained
more Power of Undead, he stayed as Undead longer 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 was making sculpture it
was a minor discomfort.
But in fact, it
was truly dangerous stat that made the Necromancers special.
He learned exactly
what the Power of Undead did in a conversation between Necromancer players.
“My Power of
Undead increased again.”
“Already at
maximum? At first I thought it was an awesome stat…”
“The dizziness
made me fail Undead summoning spells.”
Not only does Power
of Undead enhance Undeads, it strengthens the power of dark magic.
Dark magic was
much stronger and complicated compared to normal magic.
That is why Warlocks are treated with more respect among magicians.
In case of Weed,
it enhanced his strength and agility when he was hunting as Undead.
Superior stat that
grows on its own with quests and battles!
Necromancers had Powe
of Undead and Warlocks living in their own world had authority of darkness.
That made them much stronger than normal magicians.
But both Power of
Undead and Authority of Darkness causes serious curses and illness if it exceed
one’s faith and willpower.
In worst scenario,
one became wicked, raised up Undeads without being able to control their own
spells and body and hurt those around them.
In case of Dark
Mages, devils could steal their bodies!
When one reaches that
point of ruin, not only did they loses substantial amount of mana, they suffer
from all kinds of curses that were hard to cure.
That was why you
need to raises stats such as health, strength, willpower for overall balance.
If you didn’t
raise enough faith and willpower thinking it was a waste of points, it would
seem fine at first but as time goes, side effects will be critical.
Necromancers and
Warlocks become stronger quicker than normal occupations but they are moving
back and forth on a dangerous border.
Weed felt it was a
waste to invest stats into faith or willpower so he collected floral and grass
leaves and built a sculpture.
Petals weren’t a
fit material for a sculpture.
It was too tender
and it withers fast. But if Nature Sculpting was used, materials’ freshness
stays unchanged for a very long time and it challenge Weed with a new kind of
work.
“Looking at just
the materials, this sculpture is harder than any of my previous works.”
During night, he
hunted and in the morning he sculpted.
The completed work
created with such an effort was a real-sized chariot led by eight horses.
Even horses and
horseman were decorated with pretty petals. It expressed a beauty that only
existed in a fairytale.
Inside the
chariot, he sculpted his little sister when she was a little lady.
The finished
sculpture was truly romantic and beautiful.
- Set a name for the sculpture you just made. |
“Birthday present
for my little sister.”
He created this
piece of art as a birthday present for Yurin.
It will be
unforgettable birthday present when she rides this chariot in Morata.
Of course
production cost of this sculpture made of petals and leaves was zero!
- ‘Birthday Present for my Little Sister’, correct? |
“Correct”
· Magnum Opus!
You completed a
‘Birthday Present for my Little Sister’.
Ø Sculpture made from the
petals of wild flower spread around Morata!
Ø Created by connecting
leaves with excellence patiences, it was a sculptor who knows how to use the
power of nature.
Ø Creativity is
outstanding but due to the characteristics of the materials, it will be hard
to maintain for a long time.
Artistic Value: 9, 814
Effect:
Anyone who see this
piece will have 30% regen of health and mana for a day
All stat increase by +15
Elegance and charm +45
Once a day, an
extraoridanary luck will occur.
Movement speed in flat
area increase by +25%
Increase propagation of
wildflowers used in this sculpture.
Talking to someone about
this sculpture you intimacy will increase.
Maximum life of
sculpture: 3 months
After expiration, this
piece will be recorded in the history of sculptures
|
- Advance Sculpture Mastery reached level 8 Your sculptures will now become amazingly delicated and detailed. Your insight for arts broadened, wisdom and intelligence increase by 37 each. Charm increase by +62 Using Nature Sculpting, affinity with nature increase by +31. - Handicraft skill improved - Fame increase by +1,841 - Art stat increase by +13 - Endurance increase by +9 - Fortitude increase by +21 - Charm increase by +7 |
Weed’s sculpting
skill level finally reached advanced level 8.
“That was really
hard.”
With every skill level the requirement for the next level of proficiency
increased exponentially, the master piece he created now only increased his
proficiency by 3.7%. Even then there was still 2 level left until Sculpture
Mastery.
“Once I sculpt Helium, I
won’t be too far!”
If your reputation
hits high by sculpting, you can easily receive sculpting quests from nobles and
kings.
By gettint these
quest they gave best materials to work with and will be easy to increase his
workmanship.
“Also, I will be
able to increase with Disaster Sculpting or Elemental Creation.”
He will soon be
mastering sculpting skill, hardest skill to increase among arts-related skills.
“I couldn’t have
done it if I tried to get this far if it was all for arts.”
To make the pieces,
he collected complicated materials through many adventures and quests.
He devoted a long
time on sculpting his work, suffering for creativity.
It was all thanks
to money that he got this far.
____________________________________________________
“Finally… our hard
works will come into fruition.”
“This moment will
be broadcasted on gaming media for at least one month.”
“Thousands, no millions
will see this.”
Villagers and players
of Morata stopped working and came out to streets, square and roofs.
They were holding
hats and flower petals.
Players with wood
and stone plates on their back came from outside the city.
With sweats
pouring down, they moved step by step.
Last materials
need for the Grand Cathedral and Library. Just a few steps away from the finish
line.
“Cheer up.”
“Just a little bit
more.”
Cheering each
other, they head to the Square of Light and Bingryong Square.
Construction
materials were stacked up and where villagers and players have been working
together, there was the sight of the Grand Cathedral and the Great Library.
The Grand Cathedral
was magnificent, with colorful beauty and the Great Library had solemnity and
grandness.
These great
architectures in huge scale had been built by the village’s own people and players.
They placed
decorative trees on empty spots in the garden and placed refined block of
stones.
At last, with last
materials finding its own places, the Great library and Grand Cathedral have
been completed.
The completion
date has been deliberately managed to finish the buildings jointly to make it a
commemorative day.
Not only Morata players
have been waiting for this moment, but many tourists as well who came from
northern and other area.
- DING!

“It’s finally

Weed felt mentally
exhaustion while working on the construction.
“I never imagined
it would cost this much…”
It was impossible
to build the Grand Cathedral and the Great Library as planned with the assigned
budget.
Weed assigned a very
wide area for it to be built on and suggested high quality materials. So it was
impossible not to have gone over budget even with astronomical budget of
900,000 gold and 700,000 golds for the respective buildings.
“It would have
been ok to take out some steel frames and unnoticeable pillars…”
Weed desperately
wanted poor constructions.
However, Morata’s
architects tried to build sturdy buildings that could last hundreds of years.
Because so many
people were participated, workers made frequent mistakes.
Rain leaking through
the roofs was nothing.
Often, pillars would
tilt and stone plates would collapse.
Every time this
happened, construction cost increased and even if they did fund raising in the
city, the projecct always lacked money.
Morata’s three months
worth of taxes had to be put into the construction budget.
“It’s ok. It’s at
least completed now.”
Weed looked at the
buildings and let go of any lingering attachment.
It was a grand
building built by a decent architect Parvo along with noob sculptors and
painters and a lot of novice players’ efforts.
Because of the leakage
in the roof, the artwork on the ceiling was partially blurry and engraved
corner parts on the walls were shattered.
There would be
hundreds of things to find fault with but the Great Library and Grand Cathedral
looked awesome and majestic overall.
“Not bad. In fact,
it will be a building with history and tradition after a long time.”
Weed grinned with
delight.
It’s because these
great buildings will bring a lot of money in.
His Power of
Undead grew and his title became much higher in the Undead Army.
Death Knight!
It was a high rank
in combat ranks it would be similar to a commander.
“Hehe, I guess
I’ll be getting more tax income.”
Weed, the Death
Knight, cackled evilly in his castle while looking at the Grand Cathedral.
_______________________________________________________
“Let’s begin the
recital.”
“Light the
bonfire!”
A bonfire was lit
in the square and bards performed on their instruments as celebration of
completion of Grand Cathedral and the Great Library began.
As it got darker,
the lights and music made the city Morata even more beautiful!
· Morata’s residence started a commemorative festival - The residence are praising their hero Weed. - All credit are given to the lord for the religious race, solid public peace and food production in the Northern Continent. - They do not doubt about the bright future of Morata. - The Villages crime will drop by half. - The children’s academics increased. - The productivity of the Village residence will increase by 330% for one month. - The residence are happy, they can now get better jobs. - You can participate in the festival. |
There were several
festivals in Morata.
But players from Central
Continent considered a festival in a city to be weird.
There isn’t a
single place in the continent where villagers’ loyalty and moral toward the
lords are so highly maintained.
In the Square of Light
and Bingryong Square where the Grand Cathedral and the Great Library stood,
people continuously gathered.
“Here comes the
wild boar and deer.”
They roasted them
on bonfire, seasoning them with salt, and shared it with the onlookers.
“Those who
participated in the transportation of wood, please come here.”
“Grass porridge!
Grass porridge!
“We Grass porridge
religion is leaving for a group hunt in two hours. No level or class
restrictions. Those who want to join, come to the east gate after two hours.”
While players were
having fun, merchants were devastated.
“I should have
bought it early…”
“If I built a
building this side, it would have been a jack-pot.”
“This area will
continuously increase in population.”
As more players
and villagers increased in Morata, there is no doubt it will lead to greater
commercial supremacy in the region.
It was nice for
merchants but the only lingering attachment they had was on the lands near the cathedral
and the library.
Priests and paladins
would visit the Grand Cathedral often and people preparing for adventures and
quests will visit the Great Library frequently.
It was obvious
that people will come to the Great Library for information about quests, maps
and monsters.
“They said these
lands are already owned by someone. Who in the world has the ownership of these
lands?”
“The land is just
way too good…”
While merchants
were dispirited, buildings popped up suddenly from the empty lands next to Grand
Cathedral.
Rapid construction
in Domestic Affairs Mode was something only the lord could perform!
