How a Calamity Necromancer Retires

chapter 3



The three awakened teams walk through the forest in the gate and glance behind the extension.

Behind them were skeletons carrying monster by-products and chasing after them.

I said with my eyes shining.

“This is a possibility.”

Even after deleting the battle command among the existing commands and adding only one chasing command, the skeleton was performing its role as a porter quite plausibly.

Anyway, the attack evasion and movement algorithms are basic.

at that time.

The by-product the skeleton was holding gets caught in the tree and falls to the floor.

When I was leading alone, it was a phenomenon that the leading skeletons did not have to go through obstacles.

“I need to increase the evasion radius.”

Anyway, my magic circle is only visible to my eyes, so I created it without hesitation.

“Link the avoidance radius to the by-product volume… okay.”

After such a simple tuning, a skeleton carrying the by-product properly this time passed through the trees.

I said with an excited expression.

“If you hire a skeleton as a porter, I can sit back and earn money.”

Although it looks like there are quite a lot of parts to patch, at least it’s much, much easier than making a combat skeleton, and it’s overwhelmingly easier.

Then the monsters appear and the Awoken team is ready for battle.

However, one of the monsters starts attacking the skeleton that is acting as a porter.

Then, according to the pre-entered command, the skeleton started spinning around the Awakener to avoid the monsters.

I said with a smirk.

“Good good.”

In the meantime, the Awoken team who finished the battle said with a curious expression.

“Hey… is it comfortable?”

“That’s right, you don’t have to worry about porters.”

Battles are battles, but Awakeners also have a duty to protect their porters.

However, these are lifeless skeletons.

“It would be perfect if I just put my bag on it and follow it.”

“But what if it gets destroyed?”

Customer’s new complaint.

I pondered for a while and thought.

‘Destruction…’

Now that I have it, I can just make it again, but what if the customers drag the skeleton porter without me and it gets smashed?

Of course, such concerns are also experienced by human porters, but wouldn’t they need some special advantage of skeleton porters?

“for a moment. bag?”

Why is the porter carrying the bag?

just for storage.

And bipedal creatures have a body structure that is not suitable for storage in the first place.

‘wait for a sec. If you combine these well…’

I told the Awoken team.

“Can you wait a minute? Because I have a good idea right now.”

*

The awakened team decided to take a break after receiving Han Ji-hyeok’s request.

“Isn’t that bad?”

“uh.”

“I felt a little like that when the skeleton came along, but it’s much more comfortable than I thought.”

At that time, an Awakener said with a sad expression.

“But you look so insignificant that I’m anxious.”

It felt like it would break with just one hit as only bones remained.

If it is broken, the amount of by-products that can be carried and returned will decrease, so of course the income will also decrease.

“It’s free, so let’s enjoy today. If it breaks, I will not rebuild it.”

“That’s right.”

While they were talking about this and that, Han Ji-hyeok brought something behind him and said.

“You waited a long time.”

“ah. It’s over…”

The Awakeners who turned their heads toward Han Ji-hyeok were at a loss for words when they saw something made of bones following Han Ji-hyeok.

“I-what is that?”

A large oval basket made of bones and a skull attached to its front.

In addition to the three pairs of bone legs hanging under the basket.

Han Ji-hyeok said with a confident expression.

“It’s a 6-legged transporter Skeleton MK.1!”

*

I am a necromancer who has been called the best in the history of the Seron continent when it comes to creating undead.

To me, such a stopper is nothing.

I said as I put the by-products the skeleton was holding into the bone basket of the transporter skeleton.

“What if I put it in a basket like this? No fear of falling, perfect. furthermore······.”

I said to the transporter skeleton.

“A monster appears.”

Then, the transporter skeleton’s legs gently folded, and it quietly sat there like a real basket.

“Aren’t monsters hostile to living creatures that move? But as anyone can see, this is just a basket. Just wait for the battle to end and then say something like this. let’s go.”

Then, the skeleton stood up quietly again.

“Then what if I walk like this?”

A carrier skeleton chases after me.

“How is it?”

At my words, the awakened people opened their mouths and said.

“and······.”

“Is something like that possible?”

“Does it look completely comfortable?”

“I don’t think I’ve seen anything like that before. I think someone in the US said they were researching a robot for carrying gates and that they were developing something similar to that.”

what?

do you have competitors?

Of course, it won’t beat the cost performance of my skeleton, but let’s show it for sure.

“Let’s test it once. let’s go!”

“ah. yes.”

Everyone was looking at my transporter Skeleton MK.1 with a curious expression on their way, and this time they met another monster.

“A monster appears!”

A transporter skeleton that silently sits down at those words.

And the result is…

“nice!”

Also, as I expected, the monsters didn’t even recognize the transport skeleton as an enemy.

Rather than a basket, should I say that it looks like a part of a bundle of by-products, since there are bones among the stored by-products?

Thanks to this, the monsters only attack the Awoken who are rampaging right in front of their eyes.

“Perfect, perfect.”

He is the perfect worker to take care of my retirement.

I can be freed from this tedious labor if I complete the macro only and rent it to the Awakeners at a low price in place of the porter.

Impressed, I closed my eyes and said.

“As expected, there is no law in the world to die.”

Did you say you can get through it?

Eventually I found a new way to overcome my annoyance.

While I was so moved, the awakened people who had finished hunting excitedly began to load the by-products of the monsters onto the transportable skeleton.

“Is this really comfortable?”

“Awesome, great.”

I spoke kindly for the guest.

“It is an eco-friendly pet that does not require fuel and does not tire. Please use it with confidence.”

The Awoken asked excitedly.

“How much are you selling this for?”

This skeleton can carry the load of at least 3 porters.

Then, since the cost of one porter is 30,000 won per hour…

“We don’t sell, we only rent. The rental fee is 30,000 won per hour. One of these will do for 3 porters. Well, depending on the loading method, you can load more.”

The Awoken said with excited expressions.

“30,000 won per hour?”

“That’s one-third!”

right?

Is it really honey?

“Please spread the word well, then I will give you a special price.”

“Uh ha ha. You don’t look like an Awakener, you look like a complete merchant.”

If the merchant is more comfortable, can’t you do anything?

I want to earn money comfortably.

“All loaded.”

“Come on, just say one word and I’ll get up and follow you. ah! I didn’t register my voice.”

I created the magic circle again and injected new commands into the transport skeleton.

“Tell me.”

“let’s go.”

Then, at the Awakener’s words, the transport type skeleton rose from its seat.

“Oh oh!”

However, some of the by-products flow down during the process of standing up, perhaps because too many by-products are loaded.

“ah. I must have loaded too much.”

“Hmm… wait a minute.”

I dismantled another skeleton, added bones around the basket, and set additional commands.

“Close it.”

Then the bones automatically wrap around the by-products in the basket and close.

I said it as if introducing a new product.

“ruler! This time, it is a skeleton MK.2, a 6-legged transporter with an added cover function!”

“Oh oh!”

“For reference, this is an additional 10,000 won per hour as an option fee. How are you?”

“I am satisfied!”

“You look like a robot!”

good!

This business is unconditional!

I said with a confident expression.

“Go! Beyond the MK.2 until the perfect transportable skeleton!”

*

“Why are you asking to come this way?”

An Awakener headed for a new gate at the recommendation of an acquaintance.

“ah. Is it a gate that has reached the critical point? Are you going to hunt for the last fish?”

When the critical point is reached, the gate completely disappears, spitting out the remaining monsters in the gate.

Of course, until the critical point, the Awakeners hunt tirelessly, but it is common for monsters hidden in corners to be completely eradicated.

So, when the critical point is reached, the Awakeners gather and finally defeat the monster that vomits out of the gate.

If you’re lucky, it was an opportunity to hunt a large amount of monsters in one sitting.

However, an acquaintance shook his head and said.

“no. It’s not like that. There are still a few days left.”

“But why did you come all the way here? There are similarly rated gates in the neighborhood.”

Then the acquaintance smiled and said.

“Because this place is a bit special.”

“Is it special?”

“You will know when you see it.”

The Awoken team arrived at the gate like that.

But then, the Awoken who had been invited rubbed their eyes and said.

“I-what is that?”

An Awakener hands money to a man sitting at a stall, and a strange creature with three pairs of bone legs attached to a basket of bones follows him.

And the Awoken team that goes into the gate with that creature.

“It’s called a transport skeleton. It’s a summoned beast, but it’s much more convenient and cheaper as a porter.”

“It’s the first time I’ve ever seen something like that.”

“Aren’t you curious? So I’m going to give it a try.”

“Are you safe? Suddenly standing up and attacking or something like that…”

“Can that be? How can you attack when you have no hands? Besides, if it’s that dangerous, people will use it that way.”

“That’s… that’s right.”

“Let’s go.”

The Awoken team headed to the stall.

The man at the stall said, savoring his coffee.

“Um~. welcome.”

“I’d like to borrow one.”

“I recommend two. Each bag can hold more than 3 porters, and even though it can’t be saved, you can bring a whole monster corpse with its superior storage capacity. The cost is 30,000 won per hour for one. Even if you rent two, it is much cheaper than the price of six porters.”

Then the Awakener said with a surprised expression.

“One dog serves 3 people, 30,000 won per hour? Not even half price? Is this for real?”

“Sure. If in doubt, ask other people who have used it and they will know.”

Then the Awoken team, who had already borrowed two, raised their thumbs and said.

“Write it unconditionally. Especially MK.2. The MK.2 has a lid function, so if you load it well, you can load up to four people.”

Then the stall man clicked his tongue and said.

“You know it’s the customer’s responsibility if it breaks down while exceeding the proper load, right?”

“no way. When I tried it, it seemed to be loose enough.”

“It’s made strong, so that’s of course, but please follow the usage rules.”

The Awakener said with a surprised expression at the conversation between the two.

“Is it for 4 people?”

“Is that enough to bring a whole real monster?”

The reason for saving is to reduce the burden by focusing on the most valuable things.

However, it is an all-purpose transportation equipment that solves all such concerns.

The Awoken looked at the man at the stall and said.

“What is MK.2?”

“The MK.2 comes with a cover option. 10,000 won is added for the option fee, and 20,000 won is added for the MK.3 with an automatic collection function.”

“Uh… what’s good?”

“MK.2 is the most popular. The MK.3 automatic collection function isn’t bad either, but it’s still in beta, so it’s not perfect.”

“Then give me two MK.2s.”

*

“thank you! Happy hunting.”

It is perfect.

Even if you sit down, you can make money.

“Uh hee hee.”

I said, taking another sip of coffee and taking out a new handheld game console to pass the time.

“This is Mureungdowon.”

why do you work

You can make it a skeleton.

It’s so much fun.

“You did well to be a necromancer.”

I earn money by rolling the skeleton like this.

I will earn money like that and live while playing Tangja Tangja.

He had suffered enough to do in Seron.

“Let’s see… Shall we play this game this time?”

While operating the portable game console, a new customer came.

“I want to rent the MK.2.”

I said with an apologetic expression.

“oh my. The basic type and the MK.2 are all gone. I only have the MK.3.”

“MK.3? Ah-oh. I don’t like that automatic collection function.”

“It’s still a beta version…”

“Can’t you just rent it without the automatic collection function? All you need is a cover.”

“That doesn’t work.”

“ha. I can’t help it. Please give me the MK.3.”

“yes! thank you!”

It is an option that is not needed, but the Awakeners who have no choice but to rent it.

Option trading is the basic of the basics.

While the Awoken team was forced to take the MK.3 and enter the gate, I leaned back on the chair and played the handheld game console.

“Business is going well.”

That’s how my transport skeleton business quickly became the hottest item in the neighborhood.
