How a Calamity Necromancer Retires

An F-class skeleton that successfully blocked an F-class Awakener’s attack.

By the way, there are also B-class skeletons?

Director Park, who was quietly accompanying Chairman Yeo Woon-gu, said with a firm expression.

“If it’s a B-class skeleton…”

Jihyeok Han shrugged and said.

“It is exactly what you imagined.”

In other words, it is a skeleton for bodyguards that can deal with B-class Awakeners.

At that time, Yeo Woon-gu smiled brightly and said.

“Is that true? Are there B-class bodyguard skeletons?”

“Sure.”

“So you’re saying that if you carry several B-Class… you can block A-Class as well?”

“It depends, but it’s not an impossible story.”

At that time, Director Park looked at Han Ji-hyeok and said.

“May I know how many B-classes there are?”

“There are five.”

5 grade B.

Awoken people have so many different types of abilities that it is impossible to generalize and calculate them, but it is known that usually the highest Awoken people share about 5 Awoken people below them.

Based on that calculation, 5 B-ranks equals 1 A-ranker.

‘There are over 100 skeletons that I can see right now, and even 5 of them can deal with B-class Awakeners? This is absolutely not something that an A-class Awakener can do.’

Since the number of skeletons working at Seron already exceeded 10,000, there was an opinion that Han Ji-hyeok was never A-class, but this exceeded that level.

At that time, Han Ji-hyeok said with a sorry expression.

“ah! Please note that these guys do not have attack abilities. It’s because they were created to focus only on security and defense. Instead, it is possible to suppress it by grabbing it and restricting its movement.”

Han Ji-hyeok explained that he had no offensive ability.

But that fact didn’t matter at all.

Considering Han Ji-hyeok’s plugging ability, it’s probably not because he couldn’t add an attack ability.

‘Are those 100 all? no. It can’t be.’

Considering the steps Han Ji-hyeok had shown so far, there was a high probability that those 100 bodyguard skeletons were just a taster.

What if there are more than 100 such skeletons, 1,000 or more?

At that time, Yeo Woon-goo, intoxicated with the fact that a skeleton might be able to take the place of Chief Park, said in an excited voice.

“Are there 5 skeletons that can block B-class Awoken? Director Park.”

“Yes, Chairman.”

“Can 5 Awoken be stopped?”

This is something Park himself is curious about.

“I don’t know exactly.”

Then Jihyeok Han said.

“Would you like to test it? I’m curious as I haven’t taken the Class A Awakener test either.”

Then, Director Park nodded and said.

“great.”

“okay.”

As Han Ji-hyeok snapped his fingers, five B-class skeletons at the far end lined up behind Han Ji-hyeok.

Chief Park said as he took his posture.

“What level should we try?”

“Hmm… opportunities like this aren’t common, so let’s seriously try it. I won’t say anything, so do whatever you want.”

Yeo Woon-gu, who was next to him, spoke in an urgent voice.

“Then, if all of them are destroyed, won’t I run out of skeletons to take with me? Director Park’s skills are not average.”

“Don’t worry, if it breaks, just make it again.”

Han Ji-hyeok answered in a light tone, but that answer gave Director Park even more goosebumps.

Even if it’s smashed, it’s a summon that can be recreated at any time.

This was absolutely not something that could be imitated by humans.

Director Park looked at Han Ji-hyeok with a serious expression and said.

“Then I will go without hesitation.”

“Please come.”

Director Park rushed at Han Ji-hyeok at the end of his words and threw a fist wrapped in red brilliance.

But then.

Dalgrak!

One of the skeletons in the back hugs Han Ji-hyeok at great speed and defends it with his body.

Director Park’s fist hit the skeleton’s torso, not Han Ji-hyeok’s.

pop!

At that moment, the red glow surrounding the fist made an explosion sound, and part of the skeleton’s body was shattered.

It was Park’s ability to explode.

“As expected, it’s Director Park!”

A B-class skeleton who lost part of her body in an attack by Chief Park, an A-class Awakener.

However, despite the cheers of the bodyguards, Chief Park’s expression hardened.

‘Still blocking.’

If it was a human, it would have suffered instant death, but the skeleton still protects Han Ji-hyeok even by twisting its body.

Where is that?

While the skeleton sacrificed its body to protect it, two of the remaining four skeletons approached Park’s side and tried to subdue him, and the remaining two pulled Han Ji-hyeok back.

It was literally the epitome of a bodyguard.

‘Is this a skeleton?’

The cooperation of skeletons who literally gave everything to security.

Chief Parker bit his lip and said.

“I will show you properly.”

Manager Park started to demonstrate his skills in earnest.

The skeletons who tried to subdue Chief Park’s attack did not last long and both were destroyed in half.

But then.

A skeleton picks up Han Ji-hyeok and suddenly runs away, and all the half-destroyed skeletons rush in and cling to Chief Park’s hands and feet.

“Ugh!”

Chief Park is unable to move properly due to the skeletons that suddenly cling to him.

While Director Park hurriedly knocked out the skeletons, Han Ji-hyeok’s voice came from the side of the skeletons that had already fled.

“So far.”

Then, the skeletons stopped moving in an instant.

Han Ji-hyeok said in an admiring voice as he got off the skeleton.

“Yeah. You’re amazing. The escape mode is activated.”

“Escape mode?”

“When an unmatchable enemy appears, all but one sacrifices to take the time and the remaining one is the last way to escape the guard.”

Then, Yeo Woon-gu shrugged and said.

“Because our manager Park’s skills are amazing.”

“That’s right. I thought 5 would be enough to stop one A-rank. I guess I’ll have to consider the countermeasures for each ability. By the way, Chief Park, how are you guys doing?”

After thinking about it for a while, Chief Park said.

“He is an excellent bodyguard. Five skeletons like this will save the president’s life at least once under any circumstances unless an S-class Awakener is aiming for it.”

“Yes?”

Han Ji-hyuk said to Yeo Woon-goo.

“How is it, a skeleton for bodyguards? 5 seems a bit uneasy, so adding 2 to 7 would not be bad.”

“great. I will buy it.”

“It’s not buying, it’s renting. Since they have no offensive abilities, they cost half as much as an Awoken bodyguard of the same level. I don’t think it’s bad since I’ll protect you 24 hours instead.”

“It’s fine.”

While Han Ji-hyeok and Yeo Woon-gu were talking about the price and number of rentals, Director Park looked at the half-destroyed skeletons and thought.

‘Awakener class skeletons that can be restored at any time. There are over 10,000 normal skeletons.’

Han Ji-hyeok was already driving the wind of considerable change in Korea with his public opinion.

But now, not only does it have no offensive ability, but it is actually making a skeleton for combat.

Director Park thought as he looked at Han Ji-hyeok, who was laughing while chatting with Yeo Woon-gu.

‘A person who can do everything alone.’

A one-man factory, and a one-man army at the same time.

Han Ji-hyeok was a monster with both military power and wealth.

But that’s what makes me more reassured.

At first, it gave me goosebumps at the fact that there were so many skeletons of this level, but considering Han Ji-hyeok as an awakened person of S-class or higher, not A-class, it was easy to accept.

And if the summoner of such a strong man protects Yeo Woon-gu, he will be able to return to his daily life with peace of mind.

“Thank you very much, CEO Han.”

At Director Park’s words, Han Ji-hyeok smiled brightly and said.

“Don’t worry. Isn’t the safety of our customers a priority? That way everyone can be safe and hire more bodyguard skeletons. isn’t it?”

Director Park said with a smile.

“That is correct. Anyway, I hope for the safety of the president.”

*

“okay? Did Manager Park resign?”

“yes. I had a resignation ceremony today and completely stepped down.”

Yeo Yun-gi said with her eyes shining.

“Yeah. My older brother can’t do anything because he’s anxious without Director Park. What should I do? Could it be that you couldn’t even go to work?”

Yeo Woon-ki, president of Yeoryeong Group affiliate, Yeoryeong Products.

He was Yeo Woon-goo’s younger brother, and at the same time a rival who competed for succession over the Yeoryeong group.

“Did my half-penny brother go to work?”

It was Yeo Woon-gi who had been struggling to take over the Yeoryeong group and proved his skills, but in the end it was Yeo Woon-goo who was chosen in the successor competition.

Of course, Yeo Woon-gi could not accept that fact.

Although Yeo Woon-goo’s performance was very good and he showed excellent management skills, such as raising the group’s ranking by 5 steps, he had a fatal flaw called trauma that would never go away.

A group president who loses sleep every night because of anxiety.

Nevertheless, the reason why Yeo Woon-goo has been able to lead the Yeoryeong group without major problems is thanks to the existence of Chief Park, who will make up for his shortcomings.

However, since Park had left the company, I thought that perhaps a chance would come to him again…

“yes. He said he went to work.”

Yeo Woon-gi said with a surprised expression.

“You went to work? You don’t even have Chief Park?”

“I always have seven newly hired bodyguards with me.”

Then, Yeo Woon-gi smiled and said.

“Since the quality is not good, the game is decided by the quantity. What is this? It’s unlikely that all 7 of them are Class B. Will that fill the vacancy of Chief Park?”

That finding even a B-class bodyguard was not an ordinary task could be seen from the fact that there were only two B-class Awakeners belonging to the President’s bodyguard.

In other words, it is impossible to find 7 B-class Awoken bodyguards in an instant due to the nature of this floor.

“But they say that all seven of them wear helmets.”

“Would you wear a helmet to hide your identity? It’s more certain.”

Yeo Woon-ki was convinced that since he could not replace Chief Park’s position, he filled the surroundings with gossips and put on a helmet to hide his identity so that their skills could not be recognized.

Yeo Yun-gi said with her eyes shining.

“Looks like the executives and staff are anxious, but they seem to be forced to go to work…”

Yeo Woon-ki speculated that if he immediately confined himself to his house just because Chief Park was gone, his credibility as the group chairman would surely fall, so he might temporarily reinforce his bodyguards and then go to work pretending nothing happened.

“Can I touch you a little?”

At this time, the thought of what it would be like to slightly touch Yeo Woon-gu’s trauma passed through Yeo Woon-ki’s head.

Yeo Woon-goo would explode with anxiety at the slightest stage of a dangerous situation, and he might end up confined to his house.

If that happened, the position of the next group president would be 100% his.

Yeo Woon-gi, who thought for a moment, said with her eyes shining.

“okay. It was a place that didn’t suit my brother anyway. So please just stay quietly at home and rest.”

*

“Whoa.”

A man stood in a dark alley, exhaling cigarette smoke.

“I say it again. It just scares me a little.”

Then a man scratched his head and said.

“This is really good, right?”

They are guild members of the Fighting Dog Guild, which was commissioned by Yeo Woon-gi.

The request they received was to go into Yeo Woon-gu’s house in the middle of the night and scare him.

However, it is true that they are awakened people and are called contract solvers who do dirty work, but it is definitely a huge burden.

“Anyway, he’s the chairman of a conglomerate group, so it wouldn’t be a big deal if things went wrong.”

Then the man smiled and said.

“You don’t have to worry about that. It’s okay if you don’t get caught, but what’s the problem? Besides, the person who requested this is a member of the conglomerate family.”

“Is that so?”

“I already got all the inside information. Park, the A-level, has resigned, and the B-level team leaders have already left work and are not at home. All that’s left are the seven new recruits, isn’t that enough for us to solve?”

The male is in B class, and the other 6 guild members are all in C class.

The Awoken who remained at home were not their opponents.

“Really, it doesn’t matter if those guys are stronger than I thought. Just make them aware that we were attacked and run away. Where else can you find such an easy quest? All 7 of them wouldn’t be B ranks, and they wouldn’t be stuck next to President Yeo Woon-goo 24 hours a day. Then, at best, 2 or 3 people are said to be C-level or lower, isn’t that easy?”

“That’s right.”

said the man, flicking out a cigarette.

“ruler. Let’s go in.”

Wearing masks, the fighting dog guild members lightly jumped over the fence of Yeo Woon-gu’s house along a pre-prepared route.

“It must have sounded an emergency alarm, so move quickly. Chairman Yeo Woon-gu’s room is on the second floor over there! Everyone run.”

Seven guild members jumped onto the second floor railing in an instant and broke the window.

“I’ll check the guys outside, so you guys organize the inside.”

“yes!”

Then the men who went inside.

From then on, there is a crackling sound in President Yeo Woon-gu’s room.

“Anyway, they’re tough guys.”

Did 30 seconds pass like that?

In an instant, Yeo Woon-goo’s room became quiet.

The man, realizing that the situation was over, entered through the window and said.

“what. When it’s over, call me…”

However, the man who checked the situation inside was speechless.

All seven new bodyguards, who were supposed to be two or three at most, were in Yeo Woon-gu’s room, and all of his subordinates were suppressed and struggling on the floor.

The man said with a puzzled expression.

“Information leaked!”

If it wasn’t for that, there’s no way all seven of us would be guarding Yeo Woon-gu until this late.

At that time, Yeo Woon-gu, who had woken up from the commotion, shouted.

“Enemies!”

Then two helmeted bodyguards rush at the man.

Confused about whether to run away or not, the man hurriedly swung his fist and attacked the two.

but.

puck!

Even after being punched by a man, they do not budge and try to subdue them.

Seeing this, the man immediately realized.

“B, B grade!?”

Because only B-class or higher Awakeners can survive being hit by their B-class fists.

Then, when the giant gloved hand reached out, the man dodged and swung his fist at the face again.

At that moment, a part of the helmet was shattered by the man’s fist, revealing the identity hidden inside.

“Hey!”

That’s Skeleton.

“Why are skeletons here!?”

*

The raid on the house of the chairman of the Yeoryeong group.

And the result was perfect, as if it had been deliberately staged.

The skeleton guards guarding Yeo Woon-gu subdued all 7 intruders, including B-class awakeners.

And as a result of the investigation, testimonies came out that she was trying to amplify the trauma by scaring her at the request of her younger brother, Yeo Woon-gi, and the Yeo family was in a mess, but the skeletons for bodyguards performed their assigned duties very faithfully anyway.

And in the aftermath of that incident…

-Chairman Han, can you afford a bodyguard skeleton?

“Class F and Class E have some room, but Class C and Class B don’t.”

– Uh huh. already?

Contacts come from all directions from wealthy people.

-I would like to rent a class B, when will it be possible?

If I were to make it, I could make A-class, not B-class, but I thought it would be too strange to do that in a situation known as A-class, so I ended up with only 7 B-class.

But now that I think about it, I don’t see any reason why I should be restrained.

‘Shouldn’t you take this opportunity to take a proper test?’

The doubts that always run through me are assumptions like how that is A-class.

There’s no reason why I have to be A-level in the first place.

Since I decided to live without paying attention, should I just get a high rating and move freely?

‘If I get a higher grade, the number of annoying people will definitely decrease.’

I thought about it for a while and said.

“Chairman, I’m thinking of taking a level test soon, right? If you receive an S grade or higher, we plan to produce additional B grades as a commemoration, so we will contact you at that time.”

Me who mentioned S class so calmly.

-oh! Is that true? Then we’ll wait!

However, even the president who contacted me took it for granted very calmly.

After finishing the call like that, I smiled and said.

“okay. Everyone has already concluded that it can’t be A-class, but what does that mean?”

So just get a high grade and throw it away, then rush into mudepo.

“Isn’t there a registration office in Gunsan too? Go right away… No. It’s still S-level or higher, but will it be tested at the general registry?”

After thinking about it for a while, I called the head of the registry office who always bothered me on my cell phone.

-···Chairman Han?

For the first time, the director of the registry accepted the phone call I made first with a puzzled voice.

“Chief, I’m thinking of taking a test, right? Can it be done at the Gunsan Registry?”

Then the warden was shocked and said.

-Are you sure?

“Really.”

– Now, wait a minute. The Higher Awoken test requires preparation. You want to do it at the Gunsan Registry?

“It’s annoying to go far.”

-All right! We will take a test and contact you as soon as possible!

“Let me know when you have time.”

After finishing the call, I said with a relaxed expression.

“okay. Let’s just get a clean grade and leave.”
