Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 291
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 291
After leaving the forest Simon’s group stopped at a small mountain village nearby.
This was a small logging village where people cut trees and sold them to the city.
The thick smell of tree sap wafted everywhere in the village and the sound of falling trees could be heard everywhere.
Fortunately the villagers welcomed Simon’s group. Upon hearing the circumstances the village chief was willing to give up even an empty house so we were able to live comfortably.
“Ha ha ha! Great! Great!”
Dick who had been chatting with the residents under the pretext of gathering information came back with money bags in both hands.
Mei Lin who was sitting on the sofa and eating her snacks glared at him.
“Hey! Did you have an accident again?”
Simon also intervened.
“You didn’t steal that money did you?”
“…Why is my treatment like this?”
After a moment of mischievous lament Dick explained with a smirk.
“This is another lumberyard town! Everyone was cutting trees with the ax that I was missing so I showed them some cutting-edge tools! A few people tried them as samples and they sold out like hot cakes. It’s not a scam it’s a ‘win-win’!”
Meirin’s eyebrows twitched.
“These are the people I’m grateful for who allowed me to use this empty house but I’m sure they weren’t overcharged right?”
“I’m going to pay a little more rent when I go.”
“You impostor!”
Simon turned his head while the two opposites were fighting.
Seiwir was still lying in bed suffering from the aftereffects and Kamivarez was sitting alone on the sofa with his knees together.
As well as worrying about Sasha she seemed to feel a deep remorse for not being able to protect her.
Mei Lin and Dick were also trying to create a friendly atmosphere but in fact all members of Team 7 were weighed down by a sense of defeat.
“Don’t worry too much Kami.”
Simon said with a smile on his face.
“I will definitely save Sasha.”
“you?”
Dick blurted out and Simon quickly corrected himself.
“Since Vengeance has moved we will be able to save it soon.”
“Haha! Say what you’re asking for.”
At that time the communication crystal ball placed on the table hummed.
The four people reacted immediately and rushed towards it.
“Yes this is Simon.”
Simon received the horse with the crystal ball. He heard a man’s voice that was now quite familiar.
– Ah student Simon! This is Agent Block. I’m sending a clerk and a wagon that way so it should arrive tomorrow!
“Thank you. More importantly did you find out about the ‘godfather’ who kidnapped Sasha?”
-yes. Even if it’s not the entire Vengeance combat team is now involved in his capture operation.
Simon jumped up.
“The entire combat squad? Why?”
-This this is an important confidential matter so it’s hard to tell outsiders…
“Crazy what are you talking about! Change it!”
Meirin burst into anger and took away Simon’s crystal ball.
“Agent! Why do you draw the line now? We’re dispatched by Vengeance and this has been our job since the beginning! I think we have the right to know this much!”
– Well ah that that’s right. Sorry if you felt disappointed! I was frivolous.
For a moment in a very small voice I heard myself saying ‘As expected kids these days are scary’.
-The name of the man who volunteers to be Sasha’s godfather is ‘Figaro’. A priest who works in the Neutral Zone for the Holy Federation. Currently Figaro and Sasha are in a place called Kelso Village.
“If it’s Kelso Village!”
Kamibarez responded immediately.
“This is Sasha’s hometown that we went to the second time!”
Mei Lin nodded and asked again.
“Why did Figaro take Sasha to Kelso?”
-We also do not know the specific issue. There is a strong sacred barrier covering the entire village of Kelso so access is impossible. It seems that Figaro is using Sasha to plot something inside.
Hearing this Simon jumped up and went outside.
“Hey Simon! Where are you going?”
– And when the wagon arrives please go back to Vengeance Headquarters and wait for us.
Mei Lin said ‘Huh?’ made a face.
“Why! Aren’t we going to fight too?”
-Vengeance can’t make concessions about your participation. It wasn’t even a dispatch mission for you to undertake in the first place and things became too risky. We’ve promised Keygen your safety so please wait a bit until the situation calms down.
So communication was cut off.
Kamibarez covered his face with his palms as if he was even more worried and Meirin let out a long sigh.
“How nice? You can’t even walk to Kelso.”
Dick rested his chin on his chin and made an anguished sound.
“Or if the carriage sent from the other side comes you can try it. Whatever it is Sasha is said to be trapped inside the barrier so I can’t sit like this.”
Kamibarez also looked up at the ceiling with eager eyes.
“Please be safe Sasha.”
rattle.
Then Simon came into the room.
“Hey! Where did you suddenly go?”
“you do not have to know.”
Simon replied curtly then sat down on the sofa and crossed his legs.
Dick looked at Simon.
“Agent Block said earlier we’ll wait here and go back to HQ.”
“I know.”
Simon waved and turned over. Dick and Mailyn’s eyes met.
‘I think the atmosphere has changed a bit?’
‘Is it because you’re angry?’
* * *
Doo doo doo doo!
Simon was running while riding on the back of Akalion the newly acquired divine beast.
After holding it up well with the strength of my legs I was looking at the map with my hands open.
“Kelso the fastest way to Kelso Village is…”
When Simon was concentrating on the map he heard Peer’s laughter in his head.
[Khehehe! I didn’t expect to leave Elizabeth behind! I’ll be pissed off for a few more days.]
“…I’m sorry Ergé but I couldn’t help it.”
There was no justification for leaving the three of them apart and above all to deal with the adult Priest who had easily subdued Kamibarez and Dick he had to use the strength of the corps commander.
Of course the fact that he was a corps commander could not be discovered by the three people. He asked Erzebet to transform into himself and stay by his crew to protect them.
In the meantime Simon was thinking of going over to Kelso and quietly rescuing Sasha.
[By the way. boy!]
Pierre opened his mouth again.
[That girl named Sasha I haven’t seen you for a long time so do you care?]
“….”
Simon bit his lip slightly.
“I don’t know. To be honest I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel responsible.”
Caught the Holy Maiden of Purification in Kizen. However she gave Anna a hard time because of that and this time Sasha is suffering from being caught up in her saintess case. She didn’t mean to but it all happened like a butterfly effect from Simon’s hands.
[Or is it because of that girl named Kamibarez? Can’t we just leave her and her teammates feeling defeated?]
“Yes that’s an important reason. By the way.”
Simon’s eyes widened.
“That Sasha’s godfather Figaro cares a lot.”
[Khehehehe!]
Peer laughed happily.
[If an idiot like you had three reasons to move that would be enough!]
“It’s fine if you know.”
Simon stroked Akalion’s head as he ran.
“Run faster Akalion!”
– Ugh!
task once.
I had no intention of ending it with such an unpleasant ending.
[By the way boy.]
“yes?”
[Look ahead.]
Simon’s eyes widened rapidly. He suddenly saw a girl blocking the road.
“Stop it Akalion.”
Akalion stopped walking. Simon looked at the girl blocking the road and opened her mouth.
“You don’t look very well are you going to fight to the end?”
Wearing the pure white Epenel school uniform she was none other than Lirinet who had fought Simon in the beginning.
She raised both hands and said sullenly.
“I have no intention of fighting you anymore. I came because I have something to say.”
Simon tilted his head.
“What to say?”
“This is a message from Sister Lethe.”
Simon’s eyes widened.
I never thought I’d hear that name here!
“The situation is much bigger than you think. The ‘Paladins’ of the Holy Federation are moving. If you are going to Kelso give up and go back.”
“….”
Seeing Lyrinet’s disapproval of her expression even after she said it it didn’t seem like she was lying.
“That’s all I have to say. All right?”
“Then can you tell Lethe my words?”
Simon chuckled.
“You know you can’t stop saying that anyway.”
Simon left Akalion with only those words.
Lyrinet who suddenly became a mail carrier pursed her lips.
“ah.”
Simon turned around and waved his hand.
“Tell your colleagues I’m sorry for taking Shinsu!”
“yes?”
When she belatedly found Akalion her eyes widened.
‘…What is the identity of that human?’
* * *
Simon moved for several hours and arrived at Sasha’s hometown Kelso.
Simon’s mouth fell open.
I could see the semi-circular sacred barrier that covered the village and the vines that grew without knowing the end of the barrier were entwined.
It was as if the entire village was covered with cursed monster vines.
‘What the hell is going on here?’
I thought I should go inside soon. Simon who returned the troubled Akalion to the subspace of the badge took out the peer this time.
[Khaha! You’re finally out!]
A tall skeleton with a cape stretched out.
Simon stretched out his arm.
“Bone Armor please.”
[OK!]
When Peer grabbed Simon’s hand it disintegrated into hundreds of pieces and clung to Simon’s body as if Peer’s body fell over.
Peer’s cloak unfolded behind his back and the Greatsword of Destruction came into his right hand.
Soon Peer’s helmet settled on his head.
‘okay.’
Simon covered his face like a mask by pressing down on Fear’s helmet then took out the white robe he had bought in the Holy Federation and put it all over his body and pulled down the hood. Then carrying his greatsword on his shoulder he moved to the barrier.
Aaaaaaang!
“Ah this is true! How the hell did the barrier come about?”
“Because it’s useless.”
When I went to the noisy place I saw a group of people trying to break the barrier.
Simon recognized them at a glance.
Same green tie as Seiwir gray uniform.
They were the Necromancers belonging to Vengeance.
“My son! My son is in there!”
“mom!”
Around it the villagers were clamoring. All of them seemed to be out of town or residents of outlying areas.
Since the center of the city and the outside were suddenly cut off by a barrier he was worried about the people trapped inside.
“Please do something!”
“It’s not something that can be done ma’am.”
Amidst the sound of singing from all sides Simon walked forward leisurely with his greatsword on his back. Members of the Vengeance were busy exchanging stories.
“How about support for other teams?”
“It takes two days!”
“I’m going crazy. Contact the Union and the Kingdom of Kalos.”
“yes!”
In a leisurely motion Simon touched the barrier surrounded by vine monsters.
“Hey there! What are you doing! It’s dangerous to touch!”
The necromancer in the Vengeance uniform stopped.
Simon turned to him and said.
[Someone in charge.]
A distorted eerie voice erupted from the peer’s mouth and the necromancer winced.
“I’m in charge.”
A bear-like broad-shouldered man walked by.
“I’m called Block the 3rd tier necromancer affiliated with the Vengeance Alliance. What about you?”
Simon’s eyes sparkled as he was covering his face with Pier’s skull helmet. This person was originally meant to be a mentor.
Simon answered the question simply.
[vagabond.]
“Wanderer…”
Block didn’t believe it at all.
Of course there are countless wandering necromancers in this world but is a monster dressed in pitch black and murderous like this really just a wanderer?
He was so strong that it was strange that his name was not known.
“Aigoo be better!”
Then the wrinkled old woman grabbed Simon’s leg.
“My grandson is in there! The little one! Please save my grandson!”
“My housemate!”
“I miss my dad!”
When a strong-looking person appeared there was another uproar.
Simon nodded lightly and moved closer to the barrier.
“You’d better not strain yourself.”
Block advised.
“We’ve done everything we can but we can’t budge. This is at least the barrier of an archbishop-level or a saint-class priest.”
Simon raised the Greatsword of Destruction above his head without saying a word. and drew in his breath.
Seeing that reverent appearance everyone stopped talking and looked at Simon.
‘The entire space.’
Simon’s greatsword fell leading a white trail.
‘The sense of cutting.’
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
As it was the vines and barriers were cut off leaving a gap.
“Ooooh!”
“Uh how do you do this?”
Simon immediately kicked off the floor and entered the barrier.
Block and the other necromancers immediately followed but the barrier opened only in the blink of an eye. The barrier immediately closed and covered with vines.
“Keugh!”
The block that bounced out of the barrier broke out in cold sweat from its forehead.
“What is that man really like?”
* * *
When Simon entered the barrier a terrible scene unfolded.
The whole village was in ruins.
Collapsed buildings a sea of blood staining the floor red and dead bodies could be seen everywhere. Things like ashes are falling from the sky.
I don’t feel life let alone pretend to be popular.
Suddenly the entire large town had become a space of death.
[boy.]
Peer’s voice was heard.
[I can’t feel a single life in this town. They are all dead.]
“….”
Simon swallowed his saliva and moved on.
In the middle of the quiet village only Simon’s footsteps could be heard loudly. I was walking cautiously with my greatsword upright when I heard something gnawing at me.
“!”
When I turned my head I saw a moving flower devouring a human corpse.
And that wasn’t all. Things like tree trunks were entwined around the bodies of the dead and sucking their bodily fluids.
‘What the hell.’
He swung his greatsword and cut down moving flowers and tree trunks.
Simon lightly wiped his forehead and looked up at the sky.
“…!”
In the middle of the village stood a towering indescribably huge tree.
