Chapter: 676
Necromancers referred to people who used dead mana to control dead creatures to fight. They also had scars on their bodies that were impossible to hide, even with magic.
Just like Mary�s arm they just saw, their entire body is covered with black veins that look like spider webs.
The black spiderweb human.
It was the side effect of using dead mana that living beings should not be able to use. That might have been another reason that the necromancers were hunted down, in addition to their use of corpses to fight.
�They were deemed to be useless.�
But there were no useless occupations in the world.
Everything had a time and place that they would be useful.
�My name is Mary.�
Mary started to speak again.
�I am twenty-five this year.�
She introduced herself following Raon�s style. Cale quietly listened while Raon was looking at the black robe with curiosity.
�I have lived in this City of Life for the past 15 years. I remember running away into the desert with my family when I was 10 years old.�
The necromancer Mary was, as expected, one of the people who ran away from the village.
�That is the only thing I remember.�
�Hmm?�
Cale was not able to understand what she meant right away.
�We found Mary 15 years ago on the day the dead mana rose to the surface.�
Cale turned his head to see Shawn continuing to speak with a stiff expression.
�I was the one who found her.�
Shawn recalled what had happened 15 years ago.
�As we mentioned before, dead mana rises into the Land of Death twice a year. We go up to the surface every night when we know that the time is near in order to quickly bring down any humans who are running away into the desert. Since most of them are malnourished, even the slightest amount of dead mana can be critical.�
�But we cannot get everyone.�
Tasha started to frown as she added on. Tasha was there when Shawn found Mary.
�15 years ago was when the highest amount of dead mana came up to the Land of Death. It was the most we have ever seen in the past few hundred years, at about twenty times the norm.� JrNovels.com
