The necromancer is now caught in the situation that he wanted to avoid from the start. He is now without any options and his hands are tied. He needs to give the saintess the answers that she wants. This is the only way the night is going to end. All because he is also bound by a contract that would end his life once he lies to Claire. And so, Asther, began narrating his life. Not everything though, just the parts that Claire wanted to hear of.

“I am originally an assassin. The best assassin to ever live in my world at that.” Asther said.

“That explains how you were able to save us when we first met.” Claire replied.

“You seem to be taking all of this quite well. I’m impressed.” Asther replied.

“Oh believe me. I’m already at my wit’s end.” Claire responded. “But if I don’t take your words at face value, then there would be no other logical explanation that I can use.”

“Fair enough.”

“Yeah so keep talking.”

“Right.” Asther scratched his throat. “I started off my training at a young age

    The conversation that the two of them are having is nothing more but the tip of the iceberg. This is nothing more than the very basic and, Asther is glad because he is able to break everything down properly to Claire. He doesn’t need to give her the whole iceberg after all. Only the parts that she needs in order for her to better understand who he is.Currently, the details that he has already given out are as follows. His real origins, which is earth. The life he lived before he became Asther. As well as the “technology” which he is applying to that world. But this is still incomplete. There is one last piece of the puzzle that has yet to be put into place and, this is nothing else but the reason as to why Asther has been reincarnated. The very same topic that they are about to discuss.“It doesn’t make sense.” Claire said.“What does?” Asther asked.“Nothing about what you said explains how you’re able to come to our world at all.” Claire said. “Sure you gave me information on how N

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   Dangerous Foe

    Everything happened quickly after that point. Claire stood up and went straight for Asther. She had her weapon drawn out and had a large amount of mana being released as well. This being accompanied by the same [Judgement] spell that she can only use once a day.But Asther already knew that all of this was coming. That’s why he activated Chronostasis right before he gave Claire the answer. This allowed him to see everything in slow motion. Enabling him to use a combination of spells that went against Claire.The first that he used is [Null]. The skill that he first gained after defeating the giant centipedes is a defensive skill. This skill basically cancels out any spell that is aimed at the user. Hence, [Judgement] has been completely erased and since it can only be used once a day, Claire can’t cast it anymore. A good thing because Asther’s [Null] can only be activated once a day as well.Anyway, after Asther made use of this, the next thing that he did is raise his undead. Making

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   The Truth of Things

    There is something about the history of Jhinn that just doesn’t sit right with Asther. As he read through the pages, there are a number of inconsistencies and questionable events that just didn’t add up no matter how much he thought about them. Furthermore, when he asked these things from Boreas, the juror gave him a hearty laugh.This old juror who has existed for a long time in that world and has also witnessed the war with his own eyes. This same juror laughed at the statement of Asther. But not out of thinking how stupid Asther is. Far from it, the juror made this laugh because he completely agrees with Asther. And he made it because, out of all the people who exists in Jhinn, he didn’t think that he’d be hearing this logical argument from someone who might be executed.This is the exact same thing that Asther wants to bring up at that point. He wants to ask Claire just how much she knows about the events. How much she truly knows about these things and not just the things that sh

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   Onwards With the Conversation

    Everything is finished. There is no need for Asther to contain the saintess anymore because, he knows that reality has finally hit her. That is why he restored the sensed back to her nerves. Allowing her to move once again and, as soon as she could, she slapped Asther’s cheek.“If you want to let out your anger, I know a better way.” Asther said. Not even showing any signs of shock from what hit him.How would he when he activated Chronostasis as soon as he gave Claire back her senses. He was able to see the slap coming from a mile away and simply decided not to dodge it. A decision that he made because, he knows that this would be a lot helpful in ensuring that she would calm down. Even if it is just a bit. And surely enough, the slap that was given did do the magic that it was intended to.“No. That should be enough.” Claire replied. Retracting her hand but still having an irritated look on her face.“We can stop this conversation now if you want.” Asther commented.“No. That is not

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   Inescapable Questions

    This is the part that Asther wanted to avoid most of all. It is the mention of his System. The only gift that he received from the gods which allowed him to reach the level of power which he currently enjoys. Talking about this would reveal everything that he wanted to hide all along and, no matter how he looks at this, it isn’t a good thing for this to actually happen. It isn’t a good thing at all.There is no escape for him. He has no choice but to answer Claire and to answer her with the truth as well. After all. Both of these are clauses under the same contract that the two of them agreed upon. And although Asther doesn’t want to admit it, this is probably the first time that Claire actually bested him in something.“My gift.” Asther said, not holding himself back. “My gift is something that is referred to as a system.”“System?”“It’s difficult to explain it so I might as well just show you.”Asther began clicking on a couple of buttons on the settings of his system. He already l

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   The Beginning of the End

    “Noir.”Asther summoned his weapon which came out exactly where he wanted it to. The whole process still felt strange to Asther. Especially because he has been used to assembling his sniper rifle right before he kills someone. Not adding the fact that he also needs to make sure that this weapon is well secured and hidden in order for his cover to not be blown.These worries do not exist anymore because of how magic works in the world of Jhinn. That is why the necromancer also found it funny that it is this way. If he was in earth, something like this would not be possible at all. And now this begs the question of whether or not Jhinn is actually a pre-evolved world or, if it’s just that the people have learned to live so comfortably with their magic that technology never progressed much – Asther thinks it’s the latter.“Why are we up this early exactly?” Asther’s weapon asked as soon as he brought it out.“Oh don’t whine would you? It’s not that early.”“Not that early? Do you even kn

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   High Ogre Bloodbornes

    Asther already knows a lot of what he needs to about high ogres. Just like every monster that he has come across in this world, the necromancer would not engage a fight completely clueless. Even in a surprise fight, the necromancer would find a way in order to make sure that he at least has a certain level of understanding of his opponent before actually engaging in the real battle. That is the kind of person Asther is and, it is because of this personality of his that the necromancer is also able to dodge a lot of dangerous situations as well.With this being said, the necromancer already knows a lot about the high ogres. He knows that these creatures are capable of using complex and strong spells. At the same time, they have a thick skin which adds to their defense. Making it difficult for regular attacks to wound them. Of course this isn’t as strong as the defensive capability of golems and the other monsters in the canyon but, at the same time, this isn’t something to be trifled w

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   Preparations and Execution

    Asther began the preparations needed for the fight right away. As soon as he summoned the high ogres, he snapped his fingers, indicating that they should begin their transformation into bloodbornes.There are a total of ten high ogres that Asther is able to salvage. And, since this is the number of high ogres that he has, the transformation of these undead into bloodbornes isn’t that taxing for his mana pool. There is a certain threshold that has been depleted of course but, this only goes beyond half by a little. That is why it is something that is still acceptable where the said parameters are concerned.Plus, there’s the fact that Asther is wearing items that regenerates his dark mana for him. As soon as he depleted his dark mana, he took the ones on these items to bring his mana back to full. Taking away the slight inconvenience altogether. This is how strong the necromancer is.“You really thought this through didn’t you?” Noir commented as soon as Asther finished.“Of course I d

    [Notice: The quest, Defeat the Forest Guardians have been updated.][Forest Guardians defeated: 2/3]“Well, that’s a surprise.”Asther read this message as soon as he finished clearing up two more monster camps. The necromancer used the same combination that he did earlier on. He used the domain of the high ogre bloodbornes in order for his operation to go unnoticed and, as for the source of damage, Asther made use of something else this time around. He made use of his Direwolves and made these fight against the monsters over and over again.The necromancer did this in order to put a little test into practice. Surely enough, it yielded him positive results. But before we move on to this part of the story, let us first focus on the necromancer’s reaction to the news about his allies.Asther knew that this would happen sooner or later. After all, these are individuals that he trained himself. Apart from this, they are also partially blessed with the system. With the party function apply

    Against a Wyvern II

    The wyvern screamed from the amount of pain it experienced from the attack. This much is acceptable because, after all, it has finally been wounded. The wyvern probably never had any damage all of its life due to its thick scales. But there it is now, finally receiving the first bit of damage after a long time. And it isn’t even a slight scratch at that. The attack that hit it, dug deep into its flesh. Opening up a wound and leaving a burning sensation that drove the creature crazy.It began to flail its body around. The wyvern thrashed the pillars with the wild sweeping of its tail. This is accompanied by the swinging of its arms. Destroying almost the same number of pillars that its tail is capable of.This would’ve been the perfect opportunity to follow up the attack. If not for the fact that the frenzied state of the monster isn’t something that they can easily get close to. Nor would Claire and her allies chose to do so because of how dangerous it all looked. Since the monster is

    Against a Wyvern

    Blood red wings that seem to burn under the sunlight. Gleaming yellow eyes which pierced through everything it gazes upon. Crystal like claws that are sharp enough to make anyone uncomfortable just from looking at them. Scales that seem sturdier than any outward armor that a golem could ever fathom. A tail long and whip like. With flames coming out of it.This is the full form of the wyvern that Claire’s team needs to face. Fortunately for them, they didn’t die from the attack that the creature made. This is because the saintess shielded them from the blow. Claire made use of her powers. Creating a barrier that can only be mustered by someone as her. A person that has been chosen by one of the deities. She used all of the mana of light that she can borrow from her generous benefactress, creating a type of barrier that can negate a certain amount of damage.Thankfully, it is strong enough to block the entirety of the blow. Breaking just as soon as the breath of flames ended and, leavin

    The Second Forest Guardian

    The fight is finally reaching the part where Claire is intending it to reach. The final part. The climax, if it can even be called that. With less than forty enemies needing to be defeated, Claire’s team is now in a position where they can continue the fight with less tension. Of course they still need to focus on taking down all of their enemies but, since there are now less than when they started off with, it removes a lot of the problems that they initially had as well.These including the continuous use of earthquake to change the terrain in their favor. This also includes the fact that they needed to put out flames and magma which, will now be greatly reduced as well. With all of this being said, there is one more problem that can rise for the group. Actually, this is the only real problem and threat for the group. The guardian of the forest and the leader of this group of monsters. The Blood Basilisk.The group doesn’t know that this is the type of basilisk that they need to fac

    Judgement and Crucifixion

    The fight continued to move in the favor of Claire and her allies. There is nothing that their opponents could do about them anymore. Everything continued moving in the direction that Claire intended it to. Almost as if she has full control of everything that is happening at that moment. But aside from this, there’s also the fact that she’s doing her best in raising her awareness of the whole surroundings. Her level isn’t as good as Asther’s of course. She can never match the level of the necromancer. Nevertheless, she is still on a level which is acceptable. On a level where it can be said that they will not easily lose to the likes of the basilisks that they are facing.“What else do we need to do your highness?” The two soldiers asked as soon as they are finished with their task.“We need to reduce the number of basilisks as quickly as we can. Otherwise, we’d probably go through the same thing again.”As she said this, Claire watched Octavia hold back a total of twenty basilisks al

    Almost a Perfect Strategy

    Just like the camp of the Direwolves, there are at least a hundred rampaging basilisk that are within the nest of the guardian. This much can be expected because it is the nest of the guardian after all. But even if this is so, there is not much difficulty on the part of Claire and her allies. Making them all feel that this is somehow unreal.Sure they don’t have the assistance of Asther’s undead anymore. This allows the basilisks to attack them more freely and adding to the number of the creatures that can come at them. However, the pillars that Parch created, as well as the disfigurement of the ground are enough to make the basilisks have a hard time attacking them.Unlike these monsters, the group isn’t that bothered with the terrain shifting in this manner. By this time they are already used to the tremors created by parch. And while the other thing that it creates is something that is relatively new to the group as well, the fact still remains that they are prepared for it. That

    Drawing Blood

    “Hey slowpokes hurry up!”Tyre commented as soon as he killed the first monster. He hasn’t done this before because it is always either Claire or Octavia that makes the first kill. That is why he feels proud of himself for being able to do this. Yet, this pride of his didn’t last long because of the events that happened next.Right as the first basilisk fell, the shadow of a person could be seen on the ground, coming from up high. Some of the basilisks looked towards this direction and saw Octavia. The female knight has already charged her claymore with dark mana. And without a moment of hesitation, she fired this at the basilisks.Five of the creatures are unfortunate enough to make contact with the spell. This isn’t able to kill them because of the same thing that Tyre had trouble with. They have armor that is thicker than normal. Nevertheless, the same attack is able to create an opening on their backs.Octavia isn’t able to make her secondary attack right away since the other basi

    Striking Down First Blood

    [Rampaging Basilisk]This is the class of the monster that Claire and her allies needs to face. They do not have any sort of system analysis which they can use to see the full details of the monsters but, it’s not like they need to. Yes this would help in making the fight more advantageous for them but, as it is, the fight is already going in their favor.Even without seeing what the basilisks are fully capable of, Claire knows the general capabilities of basilisks already. The same is true with her allies. And although there are added features to basilisk that aren’t part of the regular version, this difference would only cause a bit of problem at best. After all, Claire and her allies have their ego weapons which they can use. Weapons that would allow them to win easier in that fight because of the overwhelming strength contained on every weapon.“So, you think we should start the fight already?” Octavia asked.The group is positioned behind a bush. Unlike the other areas of fights

    Claire and Her Team

    While Asther advanced with his plans on the canyon, his allies also did the same. Claire and the others have wiped out another monster nest during the time that Asther has been away from them. They can only cover this much because, only a day has passed since Asther left. Plus, there is also the fact that Claire is still trying to internalize everything that the necromancer told her. About him being chosen by the god of war who, is a benefactor of the demon lord. And how Asther has been given a mission to kill the same creature disguising himself as the hero.Yet this alone is not enough to make Claire forget her duties to the group. She is still able to lead proficiently. There are a couple of mistakes and errors along the way of course. However, this is not enough to make Claire forget about her duties and responsibilities. Allowing the said mistakes to only be minimal.Right after the hunt, the group went back to camp by foot. This allowed Claire to have time to think. To erase tho
