My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant

Undead (1)

He smiled mischievously and understood the situation.

In fact, there was nothing to think deeply about.

Hans is dead.

The connection was cut off, so I couldn’t reverse summon it.

As I meditated and tried my skills, I came to realize a few more details about 「Avatar」.

If the avatar dies, it can be regenerated after a certain period of time.

The newly created avatar becomes a new entity with everything that has been built up before.

The individual who died this time did not have much regret as all he had worked out hard for a few days was, but he had no choice but to have a bitter taste in his mouth.

Now was the time to figure out the cause.

Why did Hans die in a safe village?

Even though he slept deeply, at the moment when he didn’t even realize that he was dead?

‘Well, if you think about it, it’s an obvious problem.’

If there was simply an external attack, he would have been able to figure it out in the middle.

So what could be the problem?

‘That old man…’

I unknowingly grinded it.

I thought I was lucky.

I encountered only one leopard in the forest that was said to be dangerous and was able to defeat it somehow, and there was a small village nearby, and the village chief I met there treated me kindly.

It was definitely tedious.

It was the first time we met in an unknown land.

They are not harmless NPCs as they appear in the game just because you met them in the village.

However, it was impossible to be vigilant and set a day.

No matter what anyone said, I was not in a position to go to this place first and be indebted to it.

‘What did you do? Did you take drugs or something? sleeping pills? But I didn’t feel anything special until I fell asleep…’

He even shared the drink with the village chief, and even after he started drinking, there was no particular reaction.

Maybe I just misunderstood, and something unexpected happened…

match!

Without even thinking about it, he slapped him on the cheek to calm himself.

Actually, the damage I saw wasn’t great.

It was all about Hans’s efforts and food expenses for a few days, and the belongings that were lost after sending it along.

Rather, it was a great achievement to learn more about “Avatar” by losing Hans before it suffered even greater losses.

However, I couldn’t be complacent by thinking only positively.

Doesn’t the statistics of the average return rate of 20% prove the dangers of this world?

Even with what I experienced this time, if it wasn’t for Avatar, I would have died within two days of going to another world and everything would be over.

Now is the time to think about how to respond.

Send another avatar? It’s impossible right now, as Lee Gye Seongjin also has a cooldown of one day.

They are reluctant to send them back to a place where they do not know what kind of danger there will be in the first place.

send it somewhere else? The sender could send to the place where the previous avatar had passed.

Even if it is far from the village, it is still in the middle of the forest, which is dangerous.

It was a time when I could not do this or that and I was in a panic.

Reconnected with the avatar of another world.

***

The first thing I heard was the village chief’s voice.

“Ttt… I thought he was a useful guy, but it was a blast.”

“That’s right. Seeing the way he went through the monster forest alone and the way he worked, it seemed like he was capable of something.”

“At least an Elite Skeleton. I guess my expectations were too high. Just go.”

“yes. Master.”

The village chief’s voice, who was talking with someone, became farther away, and the sound of a door slamming was heard.

Without realizing it, I let out a hardened body and let out a sigh.

“Just—”

No, it was my mood.

When I realized that, my hardened body had not loosened up, and I couldn’t even breathe.

It was a moment to slowly look down and check the condition of the body.

《The race value of the object has been changed to ‘Undead’. Acquire the special skill “Corrupted Heart.”

I looked at the phrase that appeared in front of my eyes, then lowered my head again and looked at my body.

Here was a model of a human skeleton that I saw in the infirmary when I was in school.

I took a closer look again. He picked up his arm bones and checked between the ribs.

And came to a conclusion.

‘I don’t have a heart…?’

“Corrupted heart”?

The situation was sorted out by complaining about the uniform naming that did not take into account the characteristics of the individual.

The village chief was a necromancer, and after killing me, he resurrected the corpse as an undead.

And ‘Hans’ became an elite skeleton, a moving skeleton.

＜object information＞

-Object Name: Hans

– Race: Undead (Elite Skeleton)

-Common Attributes: 「Mind Hub」, 「Super Recovery」

-Individual characteristics: 「Corrupted Heart」, 「Magic Affinity」

-Speciality: It became undead with forbidden magic. Immune to all negative effects including death, poison, curses, illusions, etc. Mind Pollution did not occur under the influence of “Mind Hub”.

My head hurts. I don’t have a brain, so it’s my mood.

Then, I decided to stop lamenting about my situation and start looking around.

I was just bewildered by the sudden situation, and since it was the avatar I thought was dead anyway, nothing changed.

Looking around, I could see the difference from before.

First of all, he could see clearly even though he was in the dark without a handful of light.

No, should I say ‘see’ this?

I tried putting the finger bones in the eye sockets just in case.

Well, it was also faun.

He pulled his fingers out of his eye sockets and looked forward again.

Although there were no eyeballs, there was no problem in seeing.

Not only that, unlike humans, who have limited viewing angles due to the focus of their pupils, the entire front part facing the eye sockets can be seen at a glance.

And I could feel the vitality around me.

Yep, I could clearly feel a rat running in and out of the rat hole on the back of my head.

Perhaps this is one of the effects of “Corrupted Heart”.

It was a skill that included the characteristics of general ‘undead’, from mental attack and resistance to cold, to undead infection and hatred for living beings.

‘It doesn’t matter because I can filter out negative effects with the 「Mind Hub」.’

It felt like I was in a large basement.

It was when I looked around the old cellar-like surroundings and approached the place where I felt the rat.

‘Oh, what a surprise! What are these!’

There were undead like me standing in line.

Miscellaneous things were piled up in the middle, and I was standing in the dark without moving, so I didn’t notice it.

From zombies to bones wielding bows or armored and armed.

After looking at it for a while, the mouse I had felt before came out and approached a zombie.

Then, biting one little toe that was hanging there, it went back into the mouse hole.

‘Uh… Disgusting….’

I was fed up like that, and somehow the zombies caught my eye and I took a closer look.

. . . There were adults and men and women, as well as the elderly and children.

‘I hope these bastards…’

brought back memories

Scenes from the time I entered the village and the next day I wandered around the village.

. . . There were no children there.

And the biggest reason I thought it was a slash-and-burn village at first sight was the field attached to the village.

As I walked around to help with the village, I didn’t see any people working in the fields.

At that time, I didn’t even know about farming, so I passed on it unintentionally…

‘These bastards ate a whole village and sat down!’

My teeth tremble at their viciousness.

At the same time, I sighed in confusion as to what to do.

‘Of course I can’t breathe. No, stop doing this!’

The entire village was occupied by the warlocks, but it was nothing less than an enemy.

Not only the villagers, but also the undead that look like knights, so they must have been disguising themselves as ordinary slasher villagers to deceive the eyes of those around them and make up something.

I must have been a prey that I was excited to enter without knowing that I was deceived by the jaws of a monster.

Now that I think about it, I think the questions the village chief asked were also intended to figure out if I was a person without a problem even if I suddenly disappeared.

One day’s probation must have been a process to see if eating this guy wouldn’t make it go away.

‘How can I deal with these guys?’

When I realized that I had been killed, or when I found out that I had become an undead, of course, I was annoyed that I had been hit in the back of the head, but I wasn’t so angry.

However, thanks to the “Mind Hub”, emotions were filtered out, and although the impact was not great, seeing even children sacrificed was unpleasant.

The guys have crossed the line for a long time.

If I didn’t know, I wouldn’t know, but I couldn’t just skip it even though I knew it.

Above all else, I am now an undead, so I have nothing to lose, right?

It’d be nice if I could f*ck the bastards who hit me in the head, but I’ve tried it, but if it doesn’t, I can’t help it.

‘First, let’s gather information.’

All I had left was time.

***

For the next few days, I searched the basement where I was trapped.

Yes, it was only a day or so in Earth’s time.

It seems that there were originally two entrances, but one completely collapsed and could not be used.

In fact, it had to be seen that there was only one passage through which the village chief and his disciples went in and out.

‘Wow, how many of these are all.’

Next, he looked at the undead who were with him.

Most of the zombies seemed to be ordinary people like the villagers, but there were also quite a few bones that were heavily armed with all kinds of weapons.

Fifty or so zombies. Skeleton soldiers, including the Skeleton Knights, looked like three hundred nine.

Crackle, squeak—

The sound of footsteps approached with the sound of the door opening.

I immediately stopped acting and stood blankly like the other undead.

Ever since I became an undead and locked up here, I could see that the village chief’s disciples came down to check the warehouse once every two or three days.

“Ugh, how long do I have to be stuck in a mountain like this?”

The person who grumbled and looked around the warehouse was the face he had seen once while repairing the village fence.

Did you say your name is Zephyr?

For some reason, I thought I was going to lose money even when I wasn’t working hard, but I was a disciple of a warlock.

“yes?”

The guy looked over here as if he felt something strange.

‘Did you notice?’

my heart sank.

There is nothing but “Corrupted Heart”.

“Why are you here again? After all, there’s no one else who does a good job except me. [Move over there.]”

With a voice resounding in the skull for a moment, I felt a force to force my body to move.

And I noticed it right away.

I can ignore it enough if I make up my mind.

But the time was not yet.

I did not go against the power to move my body arbitrarily, and I went to the place where other skeletons were gathered and arranged them.

“Well, it’s okay. But in the first place, we are the only ones here, so why bother to check every time? The old man is strict.”

Zephyr, who had been checking the dryness and dryness of his shining wand roughly, murmured and left the warehouse.

squeak- squeak

I stood still for a few hours after hearing the door lock, then moved cautiously.

There was no need to rush.

It was better to be careful and work hard every time than to get caught while being careless.

Because time was overflowing for ‘Hans’.

And this time there was one big income.

The power I felt when Zephyr controlled my body.

It was a very familiar force.

That’s because it was the same force that moved my body right away.

The mechanism of moving the body of this undead was different from that of ordinary living things.

Isn’t it a body without muscles in the first place?

The power flowing through my body right now. The so-called ‘black magic’ created all kinds of actions on behalf of the sense organs and muscles.

This is probably the basic effect of “Corrupted Heart”.

And since I had “Magic Affinity”, I was able to imitate the new use of this power that I felt with my own body.

‘How to control other undead.’

Coincidentally, there were over hundreds of undead undead around me.
