Perhaps they are monsters that once lived in the past?”
There were insects and sea monsters in large numbers! Each of the kingdom’s soldiers, knights, and nobles looked vividly real. At the top of the tower there was a small comfortable sculpture of a fire. Even after a long time the bronze and gold of the sculpture was still intact, making it forever ablaze.
Numerous carvings depicted historic nobles and the like with a dreary radiance. Instead of legendary pieces, there were numerous fine and masterpieces, while there were only 4 magnums. While staring at the historic sculptures Weeds art stat increase by a total of 189 points. Sculpture skill had increased by 8%. It was a tremendous reward.
“But the people who left such great pieces might be nearby.”
Unfortunately no matter how much he searched the ruins of the tower he could not find any signs of the ones who created the sculptures inside. However he did find the bodies of 6 big pieces made of metal and crystal displayed in one place. Weed left the tower of the sculptor’s inheritance and started to search around Las Phalanx again.
When he investigated the other parts he found more created sculptures. However they were badly damaged by the lava and monsters and were far from their original appearance. It was an unimaginable scale. To find the sculptures he had to fly high to remain safe from the monsters but he could still see sculptures all the way in the mountains in the distance.
“But the way of the sculptor seems to follow down the same path… there’s some gold!”( He means the better you get the larger the statue you can make)
Even the smaller sculptures would take a lot of manpower just to lift them. It was necessary of course to get a closer look at the price of the sculptures. It takes a strong attachment to work, for mere pennies. Through the sculptures a rough path could be picked out when they first arrived. This land seems to stretch on forever!
The trail disappeared with the land in the distance. The third largest peak, filled with Drakes and Chaos warriors, came into view as the crow moved through the dangerous mountains. In the mountain’s valley, abandoned mines with unknown entrances supported by really old posts sat undiscovered.
“Think carefully…. Where would a sign of the Armenia Pirates be.”
He had to find a sign of the Armenian Pirates. If he only thought about where they sailed he couldn’t find them, but it could narrow down the scope of the search.
“Maybe they did not come up the unfreezing river and instead walked over by landing in the glacier region.”
Reconnaissance of the glacial boundary! Because it was so cold, frost formed on his beak and wings, but he keep up his meticulous reconnaissance. Thanks to this he was able to distinguish traces of human remains near the glacial area.
The place where the remains were, was barely visible thanks to the monsters that walked over them and covered them in snow. However the places that had many footprints clearly revealed evidence of frozen pirates!
The Armenia pirates had gone through over there. The pirates’ trail was hard to differentiate from the land but it was clear they moved from the snow filled region.
Several skeletons were shown where the snow filled skeletons left off into Las Phalanx. Where the Armenia skeleton bones were found there were also their last belongings. The pirates that headed over the seventh highest peak of Las Phalanx seemed to be mostly dead. They moved toward where the monsters mostly stayed.
“Straight from the glaciers to the monster’s dens. They must have tried to reach a place somewhere nearby.”
It was a very rough scout, but Weed deemed it was impossible to approach any further. The monsters would have shot him down. Weed flew back to the place where Geumini and Rover were. He undid the sculpture transformation and turned back into an undead skeleton.
“Geumini.”
“Gologologol, what did you need me for this week? You must know I believe in you the most,
right?”
“So what?”
Even though he abandoned the sculptures for a long time intimacy had increased. Absence does make the heart grow fonder.
“Get ready for battle. Call Death Knight!”
“Master, I’m ready to fight anytime.”
Death Knight was also summoned. Geumini riding Rover escorted by Death Knight were equipped with a wide assortment of basic equipment.

Sculptural Understanding Advance level 3 had considerable advantages. Besides various curse magic and escort golems, production of every undead went up as well.
“Okay, Undead Summoning is Intermediate level 7.”
Alcohol was useless in his transformed state so this was as far as he could get for benefits. Thanks to the sculpture transformation the majority of his skill of raising undead had improved, while his main attack skills had greatly reduced.
“I think its time to start hunting.”
Weed looked at the rest of his set up before turning to Van Hawk.
“I have no brother more reliable than you brother Hawk, you go first.”
“I get it master.”
Death Knight did not say a word as he walked toward the front. Weed’s hunting laws are usually different when Death Knight comes to the forefront to fight.
“Leaving everything to death knight in the front and fighting behind his back, I’m not use to this fighting style …. Well, it’s no big deal.”
One of the top thing’s to revitalize was the attributes of the job. Producing curses from the back!
“Dark Speculation!”
Around Death Knight’s body distinctive shadows jumped out of hiding places. Access a Weapon! Diet and Exercise! (T/N -.- he’s testing out his skills on Death Knight but I have no idea why the author insist on using these weird references)(PR: I don’t get it TT^T)
The shades that jumped out of the shadows started to attack Death Knight. Deer and chubby bats that were level 300 started to come out at the sound of the battle. Then 6 horses and 5 dogs and a whopping 23 cats came out.
