Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 189

Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 189

Train travel in third class was enjoyable.

People spread out comfortably in an open space where no privacy is guaranteed. Everyone acted without notice.

This place seemed to be the only cradle of freedom allowed by the Union. Simon also split his time off to meet many people. There were also people who didn’t believe in the Goddess even though they were citizens of the Commonwealth or who resisted Epenel. Of course in front of the inquisitors he thoroughly pretended to be a believer.

As he met many people Simon felt that his knowledge naturally broadened.

On the other hand Lethe who was not used to this environment spent most of her time on a bunk bed or buried her face in a pillow to avoid being stared at.

Still from the second day onward he himself took off his coat and started walking around in comfortable clothes as if he had roughly adapted. He became friends with a commoner girl of the same age and went out with her often.

After the five-day train journey was over I arrived at the train station in the same town I stopped by when I first arrived in the Union.

I was greeted by many people. Even two of the interrogators who were close to him on the train came personally to shake Simon’s hand.

The two got off the train and went to meet the broker first. Arriving at the old tavern where we met and sipping water a man in a ragged robe appeared.

“The wolf’s confession.”

the broker said.

“To the foolish sheep.”

Simon answered. The same broker who had brought them down bowed his head.

“See you again. I’m ready to go back.”

“How is the situation at the border now?”

To Simon’s question the broker said as if he had been waiting.

“Rejoice! This time after subjugating the blood cheongyo which was the biggest nuisance of the Federation the vigilance was further resolved. This is how things work out again.”

Simon and Lethe exchanged glances and smiled. The three of them now made a specific schedule.

“Then early tomorrow morning we will move on to the Dark Alliance.”

“Yes thank you.”

and.

The trip with Lethe ended here.

In fact Lethe wanted to cross over to the Dark Alliance again and watch Anna recover her health but Israfil bluffed her.

– No matter how immature you are this is too dangerous and reckless. If you are a student representing Epenel be discerning!

She ordered a curfew to Lethe not as an acquaintance but as a saint. In the end Lethe even had to promise not to cross her borders.

“just.”

“?”

On the way back to the lodging after meeting the broker Lethe said in a calm voice.

“Should I just go over with you because I am Israfil-nim?”

In response to her opinion which seemed extremely impulsive Simon spoke as if admonishing.

“Don’t worry too much. Mom will be fine. My father completed the mission much earlier than the deadline he said. I’ll be sure to send you a letter across the border when the surgery goes well.”

It caused too much trouble to Lethe. Not once not twice.

She will have her own time too. If she were a top student at Fnell she would be extremely busy but it would have been too much for her to take time for Anna like this.

Simon thought he couldn’t bother her any more.

“….”

“what’s the matter?”

Lethe pursed her lips as if she didn’t like something then turned her head away.

“It’s nothing.”

The day is getting dark.

Today is the last night in the Holy Commonwealth. The two put on their robes and went out to the night market.

I remember when I came here on the first day there was an uproar because the Heretic Inquisitors invaded.

But now on my second visit there was nothing like that. The night market was exactly what Simon had envisioned full of energy and vitality.

‘Now what should I buy?’

With Israfil’s cooperation the trip ended quickly and I didn’t spend a lot of money to buy ‘White Leaf’ so I had enough money.

The two walked around the night market together buying snacks and buying gifts for Anna.

She lives in the Dark Union so things here won’t be easy to find. Clean new scriptures or various prayer items. And I bought special products and snacks.

“Let’s buy this too. I’m sure Ms. Anna will like it.”

When buying a gift for Anna Lethe’s advice paid off.

“What is this? Dates?”

“The date palm. It’s sweet and delicious. When I was young Miss Anna always sat on my lap and took out the seeds for me.”

“Isn’t that just what you like?”

“shut up.”

Simon bought a bunch of presents for Anna and Richard and put them in the subspace.

I wanted to buy some presents for my acquaintances on the Kizen side but I decided to refrain from causing unnecessary problems in case it was discovered that it was from the Holy Federation.

“ah.”

At that time a clothing store stood out in Simon’s field of vision. It was the same store where I bought the new robe I was wearing.

“Lethe. Will you follow me for a second?”

“Yes? Where are you going?”

Simon brought her inside.

“Oh you’re here again priest!”

The shop owner remembered Simon.

After welcoming the two of them she rubbed her palms together and smacked her mouth with seasoning probably noticing that Lethe was the target this time to buy clothes.

After a while the dressing room curtain was pulled back.

“…Oh really.”

Lethe was wearing the same white robe Simon had been wearing. Lethe brushed her hair beside her as if embarrassed.

“You are so beautiful! Guest!”

The shopkeeper gave a business scream. Simon also smiled.

“matches well.”

“Oh no. Why are you suddenly like this?”

“You liked this dress I wore last time. I’ll buy you one.”

“No this is expensive…! And it’s a couple look with you! I’d rather hang myself to death than walk around the market wearing this side by side with you!”

Simon smiled and took off his robe.

flutter!

Then on the other hand he turned it inside out and changed it into a coat type put it on his body and injected mana not pitch black into his fingertips.

The color of the clothes changed to a sweet blue light.

“Is this enough?”

“….”

Before Lethe could say anything else Simon and the store owner quickly finished the checkout like a pair whose hands and feet matched well.

Lethe who had come down from the locker room was also looking at herself here and there tucking her hair under her ears as if she didn’t hate it.

“let’s go.”

Simon approached waving the hem of his blue coat.

“….”

She glanced at Simon then lowered her head. Then she said something small and she stormed out first herself.

I couldn’t understand it but I guessed that it was a rough thank you.

“The lady is cute.”

The store owner burst into laughter. Sarah Simone who was listening to Lethe hurriedly put her index finger on her lips when she heard Lethe’s angry voice from beyond the door telling her to come out quickly.

When I came out of the store a cold night wind blew.

Simon and Lethe walked around the night market wearing the same clothes but not as a couple.

I still had a lot of money left and I did everything I wanted to do. He stood at the stall and tasted soup and played a game of shooting arrows at targets. When the two talent monsters caught up in competition swept all the prizes an incident occurred in which the stall owner kicked the two out.

“It was a short vacation but a lot happened.”

The last place they arrived was a famous wine shop in the Holy Commonwealth. As Lethe tilted her glass Simon clicked her glass and said

“Yeah a lot happened.”

* * *

home that morning.

It was time to go.

Simon who got up early and packed his things put on his coat and came out for the last time.

“How late are you?”

Lethe who had occupied the room on the other side was leaning against the wall wearing the white robe Simon had bought her.

“You woke up early. Didn’t you drink too much?”

“If it’s a purification magic it’s about that much alcohol.”

Simon let out a mischievous smile.

“Can I use my divinity in such a place?”

“It’s my heart. Let’s go. I’ll see you off.”

When I came out the vibrant city was empty to the point of being empty. The two of them walked through the empty streets facing the dawn wind.

“You’re here.”

When we arrived at the meeting place the broker was waiting with his head down. A teleport magic circle was being prepared next to him.

Having experienced it once the process was clearly understood.

Move to the warehouse near the border with the teleportation magic circle and pass through the ‘Divine Gate’ while entering the wagon box there.

Then activate the teleport magic circle drawn under the box to move to ‘Hope’ the neighboring territory of Leshil and you’re done.

“I’ll go first and wait for you.”

As always Broker stepped on the magic circle first and moved.

Now Simon and Lethe are left in front of the magic circle.

moment of farewell.

There was an awkward silence for a moment. Lethe was the first to speak.

“Please take good care of Miss Anna.”

“Yeah. Thank you so much.”

“….”

She slowly raised the hood that hung from her robe. Seeing Lethe’s mouth open Simon said.

“Is there something you want to say?”

Her white hair tumbled through her robes and swayed.

“I am your greatest enemy.”

“huh.”

“We only worked together for a short time because of the common denominator of Miss Anna but our fates have already completely split and twisted.”

“know.”

“I will become a saint from now on and I will do my best to obey the orders of the Goddess and Ephnel. The mission is my top priority and I will not hesitate to kill if necessary.”

“okay.”

“During the mission there will be a lot of bumps with Kizen. Your precious people and friends may die at my hands.”

“I know.”

“therefore.”

Under the hood her golden eyes shone.

“I’ll give you one last chance. Fight me Necromancer.”

Simon let out a long sigh.

“What’s wrong all of a sudden?”

“Shut up and take out all that Prince. Properly with me…”

“I’ll refuse.”

Simon shook his head.

“I won’t hurt you.”

Lethe saved Anna. The whole family owed a great debt.

I have seen what kind of person she is. She also knew that among the saints she had good people like Isra Phil.

“There’s no need to be pessimistic about things that won’t happen. Let’s each do our best in Kizen and Epenel. If the day comes when we have to fight let’s fight with all our might. And let’s not blame each other for it. We know who we are. How we lived now we all know each other.”

“….”

After a moment of silence she giggled.

“Anyway you’re unlucky.”

“I’ll go.”

She slowly took off her hood again. Her downed bangs swayed revealing her golden eyes.

“Goodbye Simon.”

Simon who was about to step on the magic circle hesitated. Then I looked back with a smile on my face.

“Are you calling me by name only at the end?”

“Ugh! Ah! Shut up and get out of here! Before I change my mind and kill you!”

Simon giggled and stepped on the magic circle.

The eyes of the two crossed once in the air and soon a dazzling blue light moved Simon to the next place.

“….”

Blue drops of light floated in the air and then disappeared.

“…A sword that will never lose to you.”

Lethe who gazed at empty space for a while decided to tie the hem of her robe and went outside.
