Chapter 331: Conversation
The maid replaced the cold tea, and Harry had another steaming cup of tea at his desk. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
“......... In other words, do you want me to be a necromancer, inheriting everything you've left behind?"
Hearing him say this, Harry hadn't recovered from the shock yet, but, thanks to the side effect of forced calm, Harry was calm at the moment, and so far, there had never been a calmer time than now.
The magician, who was sitting across from Harry, moved his chin and replied, "Yes, to inherit the profession of the great me, a necromancer, but a good thing that cannot be encountered in a person's life, I allow me to express a little excitement." ”
"Why did you choose me?" asked Harry, calmly.
The necromancer's finger bones scratched the bones of this part of his cheek, and said in annoyance, "How can I say it, I think it, humans, you have a lot of appetite for me, and taking you as an apprentice is considered to be in a good mood today." The necromancer then pointed and said, "Rejoice, human, to be my apprentice, it means that you are not far from the goal of standing at the top of the continent!"
Harry wanted to say that he didn't want to, but due to his current situation and the failure of his plan, he chose to acquiesce.
"However, if I want to become a necromancer, you should also know the meaning of it, even if I become a necromancer, I will inevitably be hunted down, no matter how I think about it, it is all my loss" Harry spread his hands and continued. I said, my swordsmanship has been practiced to this extent, you asked me to give up my current strength and practice from scratch, you are not kidding, I also know a little bit of magic-related knowledge, the growth of a magician is not as simple as imagined, in the case of a solid foundation in swordsmanship, it will take me at least ten years to practice magic again. ”
The necromancer shook his finger bones, "Of course I know this, necromancers and magicians are also of the same origin, but the branches and affiliations are different, even so, but one thing you are wrong, it will take at least a few hundred years for you to become such a good necromancer as me." ”
The corners of Harry's mouth twitched, hundreds of years, I'm afraid that things would have been wrong by then, and he didn't want to welcome this kind of tragedy.
"Do you think I'll take it?"
The necromancer picked up the teacup in front of him and said calmly, "No, you definitely won't, looking at your angry eyes that want to eat me, I know that I can't give up my important family and lovers, right?"
"Isn't this nonsense?! Even if you give me the power to rule the world, I will be reluctant to spend hundreds of years, and it will be the same for anyone. ”
"Okay, okay, I know how you feel, calm down first, I haven't finished my sentence yet. ”
Harry's impatience was forced to calm down, and he had no choice but to listen patiently to the necromancer.
The necromancer took a sip of tea and put it back on the table, "It takes talent and time to become a necromancer, and only by mastering these two aspects can you become a necromancer, of course, what is the result, you can see the way I look, isn't it miserable, I don't even have meat, I can only live on a bunch of bones." The necromancer knocked on his skull "Life is endless, but I can't feel the temperature, I don't breathe, I don't have a heartbeat, and even my emotions follow the passage of time, and slowly become empty and tasteless calm, think about it, the last time I laughed, it seemed like a mouse knocked over my things, and I really miss it." ”
"So, what do you want to say?"
The necromancer rightly said, "I want to die, I think it's too boring." ”
"Hehe," Harry inexplicably felt the urge to sneer at him.
If you really want to die, to be honest, Harry thinks that there are countless ways to die, even if the object is a necromancer who is known for his immortality, he can think of a way, the easiest way is to be exposed to the sun, baptized by the goddess of light, or if you want to die with dignity, he bravely enters the Holy See and is finally killed by the magic of the light attribute...... And so on, there are countless ways.
"I know you want to laugh at me, a necromancer who has lived so long would say such a joke, but what I said is the truth, I have had this idea since I met you, and I started to think like this in my heart just five minutes ago. The necromancer said casually
"........." Harry was silent.
The necromancer sighed, "Let me briefly explain, I have lost my attachment to this world and want to die, but I feel that dying like this is a blasphemy against my power, so I think it is the best choice for you to inherit my power, yes, it's that simple, your brain should be understandable." ”
"If that's what you said, I don't have any opinion on inheriting your power, but not now, I don't have time to stay here, I have more important things to do than this, and if I don't expect, it will take an unknown number of days to inherit your power. Harry said decisively.
The necromancer was a little confused, "Oh, you're right, inheriting my power is not a simple matter, it will take at least a few years, or a few hundred years, although I don't know what it is, you would rather give up my power, but it must be very important to you." ”
Harry looked at the ghostly fire flickering in his empty eyes, "Let me go, and when I'm done with that, I'll come back and accept everything you have to offer, if you believe me." ”
"Is it really good to test my trust in you? It seems that we have known each other for less than twenty minutes, and it makes me very embarrassed to believe you, in case you don't come back......... After all, the price of gaining power is obvious, and it will become a desireless undead like me, and no one will do such a loss-making business. The necromancer stared at Harry, the ghostly fire flickering in his eyes.
As if he had given up, Harry smiled "Alas, assuming that what you said before is true, I will inherit your power and you will die, then, at that time, why will I not come back, I desire power more than anyone else, even if I sign a contract with a demon, I will be willing, not to mention that the death of a necromancer is also a great honor for me, isn't it?"
The necromancer also smiled, the ghostly fire flickering in his empty eye sockets, "Interesting, interesting, you're right, I haven't met an interesting human like you in a long, long time." ”
"I've lived too long, so long that I don't know how old I am, after meeting you, hearing you say these words, reminds me of a very distant memory, my name, my love, my relatives, my friends, you let me get back that fun, death is my destination, I want to see them too, don't make me wait too long, human. ”
"I allow you to go, human. ”
The necromancer waved his arm, and there was a wave of magic behind Harry, and Harry looked behind him, and it was also an unknown black substance, black and incomprehensible, as if it was an engulfing abyss, clinging to the wall.
Either way, it seems that the necromancer agreed with his departure.
"Thank you. Harry rose from his seat and bowed to him in thanks.
