How a Calamity Necromancer Retires

Appearance of Korea’s sixth SS-Class Awakener.

Since the number of SS class holders is also related to a country’s status, this fact made headlines, and news spread not only in Korea but also in other countries, and the public all cheered that they could catch up with Japan with just two more.

However, unlike the national atmosphere, the faces of the people gathered at the Blue House were serious.

“It might be SS-class or higher.”

At the words of the president, Lee Jin-young nodded and said.

“In addition to saying that he might be stronger than himself even before the battle, the fact that Guild Master Wu knelt down on that small black sphere means that Guild Leader Wu felt something we didn’t feel.”

“Only SS-class feels… no, you mean that aura or something that says you can only become SS-class when you feel it?”

“It is presumed to be so.”

“hmm.”

The president was silent for a moment.

“Obviously, the appearance of a strong Awakener is a joy enough for the people of Korea. However, the position of Chairman Han is very unique. You already released A-class?”

“yes. Class A bodyguards are already being rented out to chaebols.”

“Then, the possibility of an S-class appearing…”

Jinyoung Lee nodded and said.

“I think there are enough.”

The president shook his head and said.

“To think that an individual might be able to mass-produce S-class summons with SS-class or higher powers. To be honest, I’m even a little afraid. Isn’t there something we need to do right now? Of course, the possibility is low, but if it suddenly changes after being assigned to key national figures for security purposes like that…”

At the words of the president, Lee Jin-young nodded and said.

“It is quite possible. But at the same time, it is unstoppable.”

“what do you mean.”

“Seron, to be precise, the sales method of a chairman is always the same. Choose an industry that people avoid and replace it with a skeleton. Shoes, as well as SR electronics and construction skeletons. The same goes for this too.”

Lee Jin-young looked at the data and said.

“Even otherwise, the supply of Awoken bodyguards has always been in short supply. In such a situation, a skeleton appeared to replace the bodyguard. If the President were a conglomerate and had a lot of money… would you refuse?”

Han Ji-hyeok is the chairman of a group that has already created a large company, and his identity is clear, and he has made many concessions, at least limited to Koreans, in order to integrate into the existing system, advocating coexistence.

In a word, it means that the image built up so far is good and certain.

The skeleton of such a person will protect you, but what is more certain than this?

“From the president’s point of view, you can think of an unexpected situation, but to the conglomerates, it’s just a deal. A transaction in which money is bought for safety. And personally, looking at Chairman Han’s actions, I think there is little chance of such an accident happening. This is because Chairman Han is extremely sensitive to people’s evaluations and reactions.”

said the president with a firm expression.

“I don’t understand that either. Why do you take the easy road and take the hard road while caring about people’s reputation?”

“Until then, I don’t know. I don’t think you’re worried about the reputation you’ll receive in old age at that age.”

At Lee Jin-young’s joke, the president laughed and said,

“That’s a funny joke.”

“I tried to change the atmosphere a bit. In any case, Chairman Han has been a style of quietly focusing on business unless someone touches him first. So I think it’s better to buy Chairman Han’s favor and induce him to cooperate with the government. Just like I said I would do you a favor this time and tell you about your future plans.”

“That’s right…”

After thinking for a while, the president said.

“By the way, there is talk about using skeletons as soldiers in the military. What do you think of that?”

“It’s the opposite. That’s what President Han is most uncomfortable with. Chairman Han has never put the Skeleton’s force to the fore. That means you hate it. But suddenly, if you ask me to use a skeleton as a combat weapon… I’m sure they’ll reject it.”

“Is that so.”

“But it seems like they can do something about taking care of security. It’s not a combat mission.”

“If you don’t touch it, it’s quiet. If it’s not for combat, I want to actively use the skeleton. Is that correct?”

“Exactly.”

After thinking about it for a while, the president said.

“great. Commissioner, please communicate well with Chairman Han. As long as there are no accidents, Chairman Han is the person Korea needs.”

The Seron Group is active in attracting foreign investment.

It is even worker-friendly, so there is no noise, so the move that Seron has shown so far has been flat itself.

Naturally, the growing number of partners as the group grows, the president welcomed it, and it was not something to be embarrassed about.

“All right. I will.”

“A grade one. Order received.”

People welcomed the birth of a new SS class, and people around me were calling me to congratulate me every day, but in the first place, the title of SS class was nothing more than a license that broadened my range of maneuver.

That’s why I paid no attention to what others said and began to expand my bodyguard business in earnest.

-Is there no S-class?

This is the first thing everyone says as soon as they receive the SS level certification.

Is it possible to have an S-class skeleton?

And my answer was always the same.

“There is no S-class yet.”

The S-class gate opens occasionally, so we haven’t secured a corpse yet.

– Does that mean you can make it?

“I always say, but I don’t know. I’m going to try it. But, well, it’s SS level, so wouldn’t it be okay to do well?”

Then the chairman of the chaebol was silent for a moment.

-I understand for now. I would like to ask for only one grade A first.

“yes. thank you The down payment is 3 billion per unit and the monthly rental fee is 1 billion.”

– I’ll pay you. Anyway, congratulations once again for becoming an SS class. I hope that Seron will maintain a good relationship with our group in the future.

This is also one of the effects obtained by becoming an SS class.

Should I say that everyone extends a friendly hand first?

“It hurts my mouth to say that. What do you mean by seron? Isn’t it a win-win?”

– That’s right. I am also a businessman, but I have never seen a person who is sensitive to jobs like Chairman Han.

If it wasn’t for that, there’s no way people would have accepted Skeleton so meekly.

“Thank you for those kind words. Anyway, I’ll send it to you as soon as it’s made. yes yes.”

Thus, the transaction was completed successfully again.

“Hey. It makes good money.”

So far, I have created 20 A-class skeletons, and about 100 B-class skeletons.

Even these alone are already net profits of tens of billions of dollars a month.

However, compared to the net profit of Seron, which is already approaching a large company, it honestly runs a little too much.

“That must mean that Seron has grown a lot.”

In the capitalist world, I also realize that it is much better and more efficient to use the labor force rather than selling the armed forces of the skeleton.

But that didn’t mean they were meaningless.

Because the bodyguards are my actual fighting force that can be changed to combat at any time with one gesture of my hand.

These combat troops are earning money like mercenaries, so how can it not be fun?

“It should be roughly 2 to 1 ratio.”

2 is spent on skeleton production for the expansion of the Seron business, and the remaining 1 is invested in combat wearing protective clothing.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that when you make two workers, you make one for battle.

For battle, especially as the grade goes up, the difficulty of making it and my magic power consumption go up exponentially.

With my labor and mana required to roughly make one A-class, I can make almost a thousand worker skeletons?

And the money earned by the thousand worker skeletons far exceeds 1 billion in monthly A-class rental fees.

After all, if you only think about money, it is much more efficient to create an infinite number of worker skeletons.

“Anyway, I think I should really prepare for S-class too?”

The sparring with Woo Do-hyun this time was a bit shocking to me as well.

A master-level strongman manifesting his ability and suddenly becoming stronger in an instant.

This time, it was a Dalian situation, and Woo Do-hyun, who was half-conscious of the attack I had decided on, surrendered and ended, but if it were a real battle situation, wouldn’t the story be a little different?

“We need a proper bodyguard.”

At the very least, we need a real SS that can hold out against SS-levels like that.

Because I can achieve the greatest efficiency when I cast my magic in a safe location.

I realized that SS-classes are quite dangerous, so I have to prepare for it.

Of course, the minimum grade for that is S grade.

The problem is that S-class gates do not appear very often.

In particular, since Korea is such a small country, the frequency of occurrence was even lower.

Of course, it wasn’t that you couldn’t make an S-class with an A-class corpse.

Because you can make it stronger by pulling morale and driving it into one individual or by enlarging it.

The problem is, again, efficiency.

The basics of the undead is to rebuild the strength of the life as much as possible, but how easy would it be to steal the morale of other monsters and amplify it by 400% or 500% with magic power?

In order to do such a thing, it is the fastest and most efficient way to make A-class as A-class and S-class as S-class.

I launched an application called World Gate Status List on my cell phone.

“see. There is no Korea now… Oh! Do you have China?”

After all, the land is wide and you have to look at it.

“how will we do it.”

There are two ways.

Either I go and catch it myself, or I pay money to buy it.

I thought about it for a while, but there was only one answer.

“Let’s give money and buy it.”

It is to increase the size of the business by making at least one more skeleton while traveling back and forth from China after applying for a visa.

Anyway, now that I’m making quite a lot of money, I pay for a lot of things and buy them.

Besides, there is no way they could easily let me, a foreigner, into their own country’s gate, and even the precious S-class gate.

I picked up my cell phone and called Ahn, who is in charge of purchasing SR Electronics’ local licenses in China.

-yes! President!

“Because I need monster corpses, nothing else.”

– A corpse?

“Looking at China, I heard there is an S-class gate? Could you buy some S-rank monster corpses there? I’ll send you a list of monsters to buy, so just catch them and buy them in good condition.”

It doesn’t matter if you just buy the bones and make it roughly, but it’s better to keep the S-class as original as possible.

Then, after being silent for a moment, Ahn spoke.

-Are you trying to make an S-class too?

After becoming an SS rank and gaining a certain amount of fame, now, even if I speak roughly, everyone knows my purpose.

“I’m going to try it.”

-All right. I’ll move right away.

“okay. If you buy it, load it up as cargo and send it off.”

Of course, it’s most efficient to make a death knight on the spot I bought it myself, but shouldn’t I just make one or two?

And well, a difference of a day or two is worth it, so I just buy it and bring it to Korea to make it.

“ah! Also, please buy the essence of the monsters that you already buy.”

At S rank, from then on, lack of magic power is a bigger problem than monster corpses.

Reproducing the power of an S-class monster while alive requires a huge amount of magic power. In particular, I had to engrave an algorithmic magic circle, so I had less magic power to maintain than a normal necromancer, but when I first created it, the magic power was consumed several times more.

That’s why what I need is the essence of a monster that can replenish my magical power.

You probably don’t know, but it will cost several times more to buy the essence of a monster than the corpse of an S-class monster.

Water must be a bit expensive.

-How much essence will you buy?

“Don’t save money, get as much as you can.”

After all, the essence can be used forever.

– Then we will contact you as soon as it is purchased!

I hung up the phone with Manager Ahn and said with a bright smile.

“If you make an S-class, make a bodyguard, and rent a few for security… it would be great. good. Shall we wait then?”

From nob le mtl dot com

My grand plan to restore the SS by purchasing S-rank monster corpses and essence in large quantities from China to create S-rank undead.

However, this plan was blocked from the start.

“Are you not selling?”

-yes······.

“why? Are you short of money?”

How many tens of billions of dollars did I save to buy monster corpses and essence?

– Money is not the problem, but the party has banned the overseas sale of high-ranking monster corpses.

“Are you like that?”

-no. Overseas trade of monster by-products is normally actively carried out, so there are usually no special sanctions.

“Then why the hell did you stop it?”

-I’m looking into it too…

wait for a sec.

no way.

“Did you try to buy it under the name of Seron?”

-Of course, I was buying with company money, so I tried to cut off the receipt with tax.

“Couldn’t these bastards be saying they won’t sell it because they’re afraid I’ll make an S-class skeleton?”

As soon as Director Ahn heard it, didn’t he notice that I was trying to make an S-class?

Then, after being silent for a moment, Ahn spoke.

– Now, wait a minute. I’ll check it out through a friend.

how long did you wait for that

Another phone call from Manager Ahn.

-President.

“Please speak.”

– It seems that the president’s guess is correct. To be precise, sales to Korean companies have been discontinued. And this decision was made shortly after the president was recognized as an SS rank.

I said with a puzzled expression.

“So you’re saying you’re not selling to keep me in check?”

-···There is no reason not to sell it other than that.

“Isn’t it funny?”

Of course, I understand what you are thinking.

SS rank is important, but S rank is also a core force.

But China is a country with hundreds of S ranks in terms of population.

On the other hand, the skeleton I made doesn’t have the same abilities as the Awakeners, so the higher the grade, the lower the performance compared to the Awoken of the same class.

The final escape mode was triggered when 5 B-level bodyguards failed to stop Chief Park, who was immediately A-rank, and after that, as if 7 were grouped into one team instead of 5, it is true that at least 1.5 times more numbers are needed to deal with the same level Awoken. am.

So, with simple calculations, to deal with all S-class Awakeners in China, you need to make almost a thousand S-class, but even if I tell you to make that many, there is no money to make!

Of course, China may not have grasped this fact, but anyway.

“and. It’s ridiculous. Do you hold back like this?”

I thought there would be no one to interfere when I became SS, but a tackle came from the wrong place.

I thought about it for a while and said.

“All right. Just pass. S-class gates aren’t only in China, they’re just bought in other countries.”

Then, manager Ahn, who was silent, spoke.

– I’m sorry, Chairman.

“I have something to be sorry about, it’s not like Manager Ahn knew about it. Anyway, thank you for your hard work. I’ll look for another country and get back to you.”

After talking on the phone, I leaned back in my chair and said,

“Let’s try this, you bastards in China, right?”

I didn’t like it from the beginning, but you feed me like this?

I had to do it anyway, but I attract all foreign companies in China to Korea.

But suddenly, a thought passes through my mind.

“···wait for a sec. It’s over now that we don’t sell the corpses of S-class monsters, but aren’t we going to stop exporting raw materials in the future?”

Seron’s main business is to buy raw materials and make and sell finished products.

So far, Seron’s scale has not been so large that there has been no significant action in China. What if Seron’s shoes destroy the Chinese shoe market and bring in all the overseas factories in China?

Will China still stand still?

“These bastards will lock raw materials unconditionally? and. Isn’t this usually a headache?”

Seron’s main importer of raw materials is, of course, China.

Because it’s close and cheap.

But what if this gets blocked?

China, which has failed to export raw materials, will also suffer losses, but the damage will be greater when it is unable to work at all.

“It’s better. I came to my senses because these guys hit me first.”

As long as I’m aiming for China’s world factory title, the relationship with China will get worse if it gets worse, and nothing will get better.

“good. I will take this opportunity to leave China altogether.”
