Iron Blooded Villain’s Academy Class

Episode 156

Nerod couldn’t understand the current situation.

‘How could this happen… !?’

It was understandable for the mercenary to fall. It was acceptable for the skeleton giants to kneel.

But.

‘The dragon’s bones are broken?’

The dragon’s bones were harder than any metal he knew and had excellent magic resistance.

In fact, he won the victory with the dragon he saw in the other world he was caught up in before returning here.

A hero of the century, a saint loved by God, a wise man who has mastered knowledge, and more.

Everyone, including the one who was revered as a savior, became a cold corpse in front of the dragon.

Ironically, the only time dragon slayers could gain such fame was when the dragon had flesh and blood.

“why… ?!”

However, the reality in front of them was different.

Giants made of metal were overwhelming his undead.

The Bone Dragon was still holding on, but cracks appeared everywhere, and the Skeleton Giants were desperately resisting, but their recovery speed couldn’t catch up with the attack.

Bone crumbs fell through the unbelievable field of view.

‘Are my undead bones falling apart?’

Thanks to this, Nerod realized one thing.

I don’t know why, but if you come into contact with that metal, your bones will corrode. So, unlike before, it was easily broken and cracks were formed.

It was the effect of Kang Tae-min’s Venom K9.

‘What the hell is that guy’s true identity!’

There was nothing to say about the mercenary soldiers below. In front of a superman wearing a steel suit, the mercenary soldiers couldn’t even reach a finger, let alone a weapon.

At least the number of mercenary soldiers was large enough to stop him, but even that was getting harder and harder.

‘It’s getting faster and faster.’

Surprisingly, the iron man, Kang Tae-min’s skills were growing in real time. It was because he was learning how to fight dragon soldiers through shape memory and learning the best countermeasures.

Nerod had a hunch.

‘At this rate, it’s only a matter of time.’

As the tireless and undying lord of the undead, he has experienced countless battles. All living things eventually get tired and collapse, so time was always on his side.

But now things were different.

It was an impregnable wall that seemed like it would never collapse, but now it’s like a sand castle that collapses every second.

‘I have to deal with him!’

It was Kang Tae-min who controlled those metal giants. Nerod thought that everything would be solved if Kang Tae-min was eliminated.

But the mercenary soldiers are barely making ends meet, so how?

‘I can’t win with physical strength.’

Nerod was no fool.

Although he can be an excellent fighter, he doesn’t know how to fight. However, he was a master of the necromancer.

It wasn’t just death he could deal with, but also his soul.

‘Cid had many souls stored in it. If you use that vengeful spirit… .’

At the same time as the judgment, Necrod prepared a spell. No matter how tight and sturdy my armor was, it couldn’t block the spiritual body.

Dark morale flowed from Nekrod’s body. It soon became transparent and, like a snake, moved across the floor toward Kang Tae-min.

He didn’t seem to notice the approach of the vengeful spirit because he was too busy dealing with the mercenary disease.

‘Die under the curse.’

Necrod injected himself with vengeful spirits, calling for joy inside. As it is, the vengeful spirit eats away at his mind, and if he endures well, he is unconscious and will basically commit suicide.

I must have been.

‘What happened?’

Something was strange.

I couldn’t feel the body that was supposed to be under that suit.

The organ that governs the soul is the brain of a creature, so the vengeful spirit he sent had to infiltrate the body and take control of the brain.

But doesn’t the vengeful spirit just pass through?

‘no way… ?’

Nekrod’s eyes shook violently. A thought came to my mind, but I didn’t want to believe it.

The vengeful spirit climbed up inside the suit. The vengeful spirit, which ascended toward the head where the brain should be, eventually stopped.

‘… doesn’t exist.’

Nerod could tell.

There was nothing in that suit. Only cold metal existed. Also, metal objects and machines are not cursed.

The moment his attention was distracted for a moment from the shock, the vengeful spirit that had been probing Kang Tae-min’s body disappeared in an instant.

“What… ?”

Kang Tae-min looked at him from behind the dragon bottle that exploded in a flash.

“I make good use of gifts.”

Kang Tae-min sensed the vengeful spirit and absorbed it into Blood Shiok. Nekrod’s attack was rather advantageous.

“It’s a reward.”

Along with him, shotgun shells rained down in an instant. It was an attack aimed at Necrod while taking advantage of the momentary opening.

Unfortunately, the dragon soldiers who were smashed a moment ago gathered and formed a wall to block it.

‘… I’m going to die like this!’

Nerod felt the fear of death for the first time since regaining his powers.

* * *

With a dull echo, the skeleton giant’s body collapsed. Auto Prime lightly stepped on the skull and kicked the crowd of mercenaries.

As a scattering bone son-in-law, Auto Ultra grabbed the arms of another skeleton giant and kicked them in the ribs.

With both arms pulled out, the Skeleton Giant stumbled and collapsed, crushing the dragon soldiers on the other side.

‘… Did I give up?’

Now, all that was left was the Bone Dragon, which was resisting somehow with the horns caught by Deus Ex Machina, and the few mercenary soldiers left.

But strangely, the now smashed undead did not rise again.

‘That couldn’t have been.’

Kang Tae-min knows Necrod.

If I was going to give up like this, I wouldn’t have even started. Nerod doesn’t stop until he sees the end.

“You cannot go out.”

As if that prediction was correct, Necrod spat it out.

‘I can’t go back home, I can’t see my wife and daughter.’

All the efforts of the past 10 years are in vain. It couldn’t be. He must return home.

For what purpose did you destroy one world and try to destroy another?

I can’t fall down in vain like this. He couldn’t be on the same page as those who took his life.

“No one… .”

With Necrod’s cry, the Bone Dragon collapsed. Not because of Deus Ex Machina’s power, but by himself.

“I will not send you out alive!”

Of course, I didn’t mean to surrender. Kang Tae-min felt that it was not unusual and immediately focused his attacks on him.

The three metal giants attacked and the metal body formed by Kang Tae-min attacked Necrod.

All of those attacks collided at the same time, and there was a deafening roar.

‘What was it?’

Black crumbs, which must have been Nekrod’s body, flowed down the rags.

I wondered if he had stopped Nekrod’s machinations.

‘There is no soul.’

Nekrod’s soul, which should have floated on the crumbs, was nowhere to be seen.

Eventually, the black crumbs reunited and transformed into Nekrod’s form.

“This is the end.”

Nerod said with a grim laugh. Taemin Kang used Auto Prime to trample him.

Necrod was turned into powder again, but eventually his body returned to its original state.

“I cannot die. Neither do you.”

“… What do you mean?”

At the same time Kang Tae-min asked a question, the auto ultra shot down the capital. This time, instead of powder, it was Nekrod’s body that was scattered into pieces.

But even that is back to normal.

“A place where death is denied, this is my boundary area.”

Only then did Kang Tae-min know why the dragon had fallen.

“Did you gather your strength to activate the barrier area?”

There was no change in the surrounding environment. As a result, Kang Tae-min was able to know that Necrod’s boundary area was a change in ‘concept’.

“Yes. You can vent your anger to your heart’s content if you wish. The results won’t change.”

Unlike before, Nerod was more relaxed. Kang Tae-min destroyed his body several times and retrieved the machinas he created.

‘Since his body has already become undead, he can’t feel pain.’

While creating the Life Vessel, Nerod himself lost his senses like the undead.

If he didn’t die, there was no reason to waste his strength.

“If you want to get out of here, accept death.”

Necrod spoke to Kang Tae-min in a laughing voice.

“Only the dead can go out. However, I cannot die here.”

“… Are you saying you can’t get out?”

A contradictory situation in which death is not allowed and one can only get out by dying.

“Yes. It is to enjoy eternity like this.”

Necrod’s boundary area meant an eternal prison.

“You won’t be able to go out either?”

“Does not matter.”

Nerod approached Kang Taemin. The shimmering light in his eyes pressed close as if trying to peer inside the helmet.

Kang Tae-min did not back down even one step.

“Since I entrusted the Life Vessel to Nobody, destruction will not stop.”

“Was it like that?”

Necrod had a soul to replace even if the main body couldn’t get out.

Accordingly, he believed that even if he imprisoned himself, another self would fulfill his wish.

“I look forward to it. What will you show for eons of time. I can’t wait to see how she will despair and go crazy.”

Nerod was confident of his victory. It was a last resort, but it was the surest way.

Kang Tae-min pulled out the skull immediately. However, Nekrod’s attitude did not change.

“Can you really hold out until the end of this false world?”

“It is a lie.”

Taemin Kang let out a laugh.

Necrod believed that if he destroyed this place, he could return to the original world.

“Yes, you are just a fake too. The real world, my wife and daughter await me… .”

“Have you been so brainwashed?”

When Kang Taemin suddenly cut off his words, Necrod’s eyes darkened.

“… what?”

“Did Noname say that?”

“No, I told you!”

Necrod reacted violently. Nevertheless, Kang Tae-min calmly replied.

“After all, you too were just playing into No-Name’s hands… .”

“what… !”

“I know your past.”

“what?”

“I know everything about what you did in that other world and how you became Necrod.”

Kang Tae-min recalled the story he had heard from Miss Backdoor.

* * *

Nekrod, Kim Seong-soo, fell into another world. However, the situation that appears in novels or cartoons did not happen.

There were no goddesses who kindly explained or provided abilities, and there was no status window similar to that of the game.

Kim Seong-soo was a refugee who landed in an unfamiliar place without any preparation.

“Now, wait a minute. where is this… ?”

“What are you talking about? Is this the first time you’ve heard of it?”

“Is it a monster?”

“Does he look just like us?”

I managed to meet people and talk to them, but they were using an unknown language.

A world where even language is not communicated, and an age of barbarism that has not developed ethically or civilizedly.

Kim Seong-soo, who had no strength, fell into the abyss in an instant.

“Uh, this idiot cub! Can’t you even do such a simple thing!?”

“Ouch! sorry! sorry!”

Seongsu Kim was sold into slavery.

However, since he was a slave who did not know how to speak, let alone write, he was treated the worst among fellow slaves.

Ordinary people would learn to speak or steal writing to survive.

“How dare you touch my master’s things?”

“Cut off your wrists!”

“No, no… ! aaagh!”

Kim Sung-soo was not ordinary.

He was a mentally unstable person. Normally, taking medicine was fine, but when he suddenly fell into a strange world and was sold as a slave, the medicine he had was gone.

Even if he was misunderstood, he could not defend himself. In pain and contempt he went mad.

“Are you trying to kill me? right!?”

Emotions were out of control, delusion and reality were mixed. Moreover, it was a different world, not Earth, so the distinction was even more difficult.

In the end, the owners who bought Kim Seong-soo handed him over to the slave trader at a low price, and his life became more and more impoverished.

He was used as a tool to relieve his abnormal sexual desire, and was also treated as a bait to lead monsters.

In the process, Seongsu Kim became addicted to cheap drugs. Despite growing scars and wounds, and his body being dented piece by piece, he survived.

Even though I’d rather die.

“This, this is not real… .”

Kim Seong-soo turned a blind eye to reality. Only then could I live. I had to believe that all this horrible stuff was fake.

“I can’t use this anymore.”

“I can’t use it. All of these things are useful.”

There was no one who wanted to enslave him who had become a wreck. But beneath the floor was a basement.

In the end, Kim Seong-soo was sold to the worst destination.

As a test subject of a black magician who studies forbidden black magic.

“Teacher? Are you a teacher? Are you going to operate on me?”

It was because the black magician used the body of another test subject as a sacrifice to study black magic.

In the eyes of Kim Seong-soo, it felt like a professional surgeon, and he believed him to be a doctor.

“Compared to the state of the body, you look good. It’s a bit noisy, so I’ll stick my tongue out.”

Unlike other test subjects, Seongsu Kim willingly climbed the altar.

‘I’ll be fine once this surgery is over. I can go home.’

Even if he had his tongue pulled out and his organs removed, he considered it an operation.

“eww… ah… ah… .”

Even in his fading consciousness, he looked at others in the same situation as himself and even sent cheers. Of course, the others continued to scream in terror.

The black magician performed the ritual. The test subjects were dying one by one, and Kim Seong-soo was the same.

‘It hurts and it’s cold. very very… .’

In the consciousness of being distant, he had a strange experience. Memories and thoughts flooded in, unknown to me.

– I want to go home, go home… !

-My wife is waiting…

-If I die, what will happen to my daughter!?

Many memories passed like a kaleidoscope. Seongsu Kim contemplated the tangled and mixed memories.

‘House. wife. daughter. family. I have to go back.’

His unstable soul was squeezed and the souls of other test subjects were mixed. Seongsu Kim learned how to deal with the soul in that mystery.

It was the birth of the necromancer, Nekrod.

* * *

Miss Backdoor even acquired information that Seongsu Kim had forgotten.

Kang Tae-min realized this.

“Everything you did meant nothing.”

The wife and daughter waiting for him did not exist. The family Nekrod was looking for was not there in the first place.

“It’s not this world that’s been lied to, it’s your memories.”

before leaving here.

It was to inflict pain on Nekrod.
