The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

"Confirmed employment."

Ansu did not hesitate to take up the post immediately.

More information then appeared on the panel:

[Currently employed as 'Main Job - Suicide Speaker Artist']

[Mental Strength +1, Mysticism +2]

[Creating the entry... Creation complete]

[Obtain the entry - Cemetery and Gallery (Gold)]

Effect 1: Your soul contains a small world that cannot be explored by others.

The ground area is a cemetery area, and the floating island is an art gallery area.

(You can transfer your own belongings to the cemetery in the small world)

After the mysterious attribute is enhanced, the small world will also become more expansive.

[Effect 2: Allows burying corpses within the cemetery area of ​​the mini-world.]

At midnight every day, each corpse is automatically assessed.

If the judgment is successful, one item can be randomly selected from the knowledge possessed by the deceased during their lifetime.

(No duplicate knowledge will be presented)

Effect 3: The floating island gallery area in the small world comes with an easel.

You can put your own extraordinary artwork into it.

You can obtain a corresponding bonus effect from it.

It also summons a spirit companion connected to the painting, whose loyalty is always 100%.

(For every 10 points increase in the Mystery attribute, the number of easels increases by 1.)

[Secondary Profession - Mystic Transcendent] is now activated.

[The bonus effect is building up...]

The moment the new entry took shape, Ansu immediately felt a buzzing sound emanating from his soul.

The next moment, a new space appeared deep within his soul.

Then it began to grow rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Even on the ground within the soul's inner space, a chilling aura emanated.

A large number of stones and soil appeared in the sky.

In no time, the stones and soil quickly gathered together.

This created a small floating island.

At the center of the floating island, there is a blank easel.

"Can placing a painting made with alchemical pigments on an easel summon corresponding followers?"

Looking at the description of the new term's effects.

Ansu examined the spatial artifact he had previously obtained from Sandru.

It includes not only alchemical pigments and tools, but also the corresponding materials and knowledge.

In addition, there is a rather simple painting.

It was a giant, seven-colored dragon on the paper.

This refers to the paint-type dragon alchemy golem that Anzu created using a paintbrush when he killed the undead.

However, the alchemical golems that existed before were only temporary.

Therefore, after dealing with the zombies, Ansu placed them into a spatial alchemy artifact.

At the time, Ansu believed that this thing might still be useful.

This is why the giant paint dragon of that time remained on a piece of paper.

Once the activation period ended, the other party would turn into a portrait on the paper.

I don't know if this can be considered an alchemical painting.

Ansu thought to herself.

Then, with a thought, he immediately transferred the simple dragon painting from the spatial alchemy artifact into his soul space.

[Artwork detected - Unnamed]

Rating: 0 stars

Should it be loaded within the frame?

(The painting inside the frame can be removed or adjusted at any time.)

Seeing that it could be uninstalled and adjusted without loss of quality, Ansu immediately chose to load it.

The next moment, accompanied by a series of spatial distortions, a piece of paper with a dragon pattern immediately appeared on the easel of the floating island.

[The artwork - Untitled (0 stars) has been loaded]

[Currently gathering relevant family members]

[10%...20%...30%...]

At the same time, the panel notification sound plays.

The cemetery area located on the land of the soul space also began to show distortions.

A myriad of undead auras, soul energy, and various other things, seemingly from nowhere, rapidly converged.

Before the condensation progress reached 100%, a series of new prompts appeared on the panel:

The bonus effects of the "Secondary Profession - Mystic Transcendent" have been fully realized.

[Main Class - Suicide Slayer]

[Bonus Effect 1: The small world cemetery area will continuously generate undead aura]

When a professional holder absorbs the aura of the undead, they will not be contaminated.

[Bonus Effect 2: When the undead born from the extraordinary painting take shape, all attributes +1]

(If the undead is a ghost with a Constitution attribute of 0, then that attribute will be transferred to the Spirit attribute.)

"Won't it be contaminated by the aura of the dead?"

Seeing the bonus effects brought by the [Secondary Profession - Mystic Transcendent], Ansu's eyes immediately lit up.

"Under normal circumstances."

It is indeed possible to remove contamination and obtain pure energy through the [Zombie Inhibition Bandage].

However, the efficiency of energy absorption will also be reduced.

With this ability, the efficiency of improving physical fitness through the "Death Breathing Technique" and the aura of the dead can be greatly enhanced.

This will allow you to reach 5 points in Constitution sooner and unlock the [Class - Gravekeeper Knight].

Furthermore, there's no longer a need to use specific alchemical pigments to manufacture the "zombification-inhibiting bandages."

While Anzu was exploring the uses of the bonus effects of the [Secondary Profession - Mystic Transcendent].

The panel's condensation progress has also reached [100%].

The corresponding familiar for the "Artwork - Unnamed (0 stars)" has been formed.

[New module - Family section unlocked]

The panel notification tone had just finished.

A new undead immediately appeared in the cemetery area of ​​the Soul Space:

A giant dragon skull, about the size of a palm, with a ghostly blue soul flame inside.

There is also a pair of bony wings on both sides of the skull, which are flapping vigorously.

This allows it to maintain its flight status.

The moment you see the other person, the corresponding information will be displayed in the [Family Members] section of the panel.

[Casting the Skull of the Deceased]

Loyalty: 100% (Constant)

[Physical Constitution: 2, Mental Strength: 5, Mysticism: 2]

[Entry - Pigment Dragon's Breath (Green)]

[Effect: Allows you to throw alchemical pigments into the soulfire of the 'Engraved Dragon']

After consuming enough arbitrary energy, it can condense into a dragon's breath.

The specific effects of Dragon's Breath are related to the alchemical pigments used as consumables.

"His physique is a bit weak, making him unable to fight head-on like the Shadow Dragon or the Paint Dragon."

However, it can be used for long-range combat.

With a little modification, it can also be used as a magic staff.

Ansu made its assessment.

Then it was noticed that the [Family Members] section contained more than just [Cast-Colored Skull].

Shadow Dragon

Loyalty: 100% (Constant)

[Physical Constitution: 3, Mental Strength: 3, Mysticism: 7.35]

[Entry: None]

Loyalty is the same as [Skull of the Forged], both being a constant 100%.

The mysterious attribute is exactly the same as mine.

I estimate that once my mysterious attribute improves, Shadow Dragon's mysterious attribute will also improve.

It's a pity there's no entry for Shadow Dragon.

Ansu does not intend to maintain the status quo indefinitely.

Perhaps after mastering the knowledge to create extraordinary paintings with higher ratings,

You could try to merge it with the Shadow Dragon.

You can enjoy the extra bonuses brought by the Shadow Dragon's mysterious attributes.

It can also enhance combat power through the use of keywords.

Ansu included it in its plan.

Then they discussed matters related to elemental spirits with the elemental priest.

The combat power of the elemental totem spirits under the opponent's command is indeed no match for the large number of flesh golems.

However, they also possess a considerable number of combat skills related to elemental spirits.

The Shadow Dragon under Ansu's command can also be considered an elemental spirit.

In other words.

The corresponding combat techniques, as well as other ways of using the elements, can also be applied to Shadow Dragon.

The nearly twenty minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

The sound of skeletal warhorses' hooves reached their ears once more.

Immediately afterwards, there was a creaking sound as the door was pushed open.

The gravedigger, Ryan, clad in jet-black knight armor, returned to the cabin once more.

Along with it appeared a rat-man with some white scales on its body, struggling incessantly.

However, the other party didn't walk over.

Instead, they were brought over tied up with ropes.

"..."

Ansu had assumed the other party would buy a slave or something similar from the black market.

The situation seems to be worse than we imagined.

"I brought the body back."

Ryan spoke breathlessly, instinctively reaching out to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

But after remembering that he was wearing full armor, he put his hands down.

Then he continued speaking to the two of them:

"I was originally planning to find a centaur or troll gang and capture a strong gang member."

However, while passing through the black market, I unexpectedly encountered a group of ratmen who wanted to attack my skeletal warhorse with tripwires.

And there's also someone with dragon blood.

Ryan pointed to the ratman who was bound by a tripwire and had some white dragon scales on his body.

"So I just left one alive."
