Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 356
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 356
Among the Kizen students Kazan was the first to step onto the podium.
He was different from the students who somehow twisted their bodies to look good to the judges. With a grave face and a calm tone he read the text he had written one after another as if reading a Korean book.
His announcement was as unstoppable as a tank going through a straight line. The judges who were busy attacking the students by cutting them off in the middle were embarrassed and could not find a chance to intervene.
“That is all.”
There is a short presentation time of less than 5 minutes.
The audience was enveloped in a huge silence.
“You… you are really embarrassed.”
Bintra of Tearing Papers said while keeping the thesis in her hand away from her eyes.
“The key strategy for summoning monsters?
“I thought it was necessary information for Summoning.”
Kazan said resolutely. It would be difficult to answer so shamelessly even if you put a shameless face on your face.
“No more than that! There are serious grounds for disqualification in this thesis!”
Source Hell Calavan raised his glasses.
“The student did not write any source in the source box at the back of the thesis. The basic of these basics is not even-“
“When citing academic data it was written to indicate the source so I did not include it.”
“what?”
“The source is information from the Thieves Guild.”
Kazan spat out in response.
“All information guilds including the thieves’ guild encrypt and protect the identity of the information provider. Does anyone ask the information guild for the source?”
ha ha ha-!
Hearing the sound of quiet laughter from the crowd the face of Calavan the source of hell turned red.
“Kuhm!”
And Ratoni the probation officer sitting on the far left was frowning as if he was uncomfortable. It was a story about beating the undead that was not based on academic information so it was useless to prove it.
“stop!”
Vintra of Tearing Papers shouted frowning.
“The attempt to analyze the monster’s weakness in detail with the information guild’s data is good but in the end the content has nothing to do with summoning. This is garbage too! 0 points!”
This time Kazan’s thesis was ripped apart in Bintra’s hands.
Kazan glared at the judges with disapproving eyes and then jerked his back.
“I-I…!”
“Young people these days are so!”
bang! bang!
Vintra of Paper Shredding hit the table and silenced the surroundings.
“You wasted your time! Next!”
This time Cerne stepped up to the podium. She greeted her judges and spectators cheerfully with a big smile with a field of flowers in the background around her.
“My name is Serene Eindark~”
Upon hearing this the judges let out a small exclamation.
“Are you the rumored heir to the Ivory Tower?”
“It’s unexpected that I came to present my thesis at Pentamonium.”
“I hope I can look forward to it this time.”
Cerne like the other students used a crystal ball and a mana output machine to display an enlarged screen of the thesis in the air.
< Creating Cerne’s Feather Soldier >
In Simon’s opinion the title was acceptable.
But why is the thesis background a picture of a weasel?
“I used my abilities to create a creative undead called ‘Feather Soldier’!”
As she flipped the screen she saw incredibly dense text. It was half blank and half text.
Simone’s eyes got tired and the three elderly judges had to pull their heads out like turtles or pull out their glasses.
“The feather I pull out with my superpower is 100% compatible with jet black! I can turn the feather into a magic circle. So I thought about how it would be if I used this feather to make a summoning magic circle! The rune word I used was…”
Listening to Cerne’s announcement in a high-pitched tone Simon fell into pure doubt.
But why is the background a weasel?
“So I changed the formula like this!”
Every time you turn the screen the pose of the weasel picture changes.
No matter how much I think about it I don’t know what summoning science has to do with weasels. Seeing her suddenly change the color of her text to a rainbow color or the photos of her pet dog at her mansion it seemed that she had just beaten things she thought were cute.
Eyes go only to the weasel not to the formula.
“I’ll try it right away!”
Cerne dropped some feathers to the floor. The feathers disintegrated to form a magic circle on the floor and a few more feathers were placed on top of it.
The feathers melted and flowed and after a while a geometrically formatted soldier with a white body popped out.
“Just as I deal with the undead with my thoughts I can handle these feather soldiers as I want! Maybe I’m still a beginner so I can do up to 10 units! Right here! Why did I use Abel’s equation for the equation-“
“….”
The audience seemed to have given up on understanding the explanation in the middle but the three necromancer judges had their eyes shining.
“Interesting!”
“It’s an ivory tower after all!”
The judges were nodding their heads for the first time.
I couldn’t believe it but Serene’s announcement which I couldn’t understand except that the weasel was cute made sense.
-This is something that will be eaten by the crazy geeky necromancers of the academic conference.
Aaron who had previously edited Cerne’s thesis had predicted it.
The thesis on creating feather soldiers with Serne’s ability is useless to anyone other than Serne himself. That is it has close to zero academic nutritional value but the judges liked it.
These are all necromancers who are stagnant and rotten as they are in the field of summoning science. If the presentations of students whose papers were torn earlier were obvious to the judges such as ‘one hundred plus one hundred is two hundred’ and ‘eating too many sweets is bad for the body’ Sernet’s story is ‘how sloths swim’. I feel like explaining.
The judges felt the freshness of ‘New Facts’. Even though they don’t have to be sloths forever.
“It feels like the brain muscles that were not being used are wriggling.”
“The contents were new.”
So Serene became the second student to take the thesis intact. The judges liked it but the audience and students were in a mood that was hard to understand.
And the final turn of this presentation.
“My name is Simon Pollentia.”
Simon stepped onto the podium. All eyes were focused.
“Keyzen’s exception number 1.”
The judges looked at Simon’s profile.
“The Pollentia family? That’s a name I’ve never heard of.”
“Don’t expect too much and it’s better to watch closely.”
“Um. That’s right.”
Simon bowed his head to the judges and handed out copies of the thesis to the three of them.
“let’s begin.”
Simon’s gaze turned to the three judges.
Source: Calavan of Hell Vintra of Tearing Papers Latoni Proof Musae.
Three people to deal with came in front of me.
“What I’m going to announce is-“
The final turn of the student thesis presentation.
The three older judges were resting their chins on their backs or leaning deeply against the backrest with tired eyes wondering if their concentration had dropped or if their interest had waned after being impressed by Cerne’s fresh presentation.
“A skeleton mage that uses Corpse Explosion.”
“what?”
Vintra was startled and stood up as if being thrown off a spring. There was also a buzz in the audience.
“Students! This is an academic conference! It’s not a science fiction reading event!!”
Vintra shouted with a sleepy look. The two judges also spoke sharply.
“Does it make sense that the undead give the order to self-destruct the undead?”
“How can a skeleton mage do complex black magic like exploding corpses…!”
Simon grinned and put the papers up.
“it’s possible.”
Simon opened the subspace and took out a zombie and a skeleton mage.
“Before I explain I will demonstrate.”
When Simon looked back and gave a signal Cerne blew a feather from his finger.
Feathers stuck to the floor of the podium creating a protective shield covering the zombies.
Simon who lightly tapped the back of his hand to see if the shield was safe took a step back and ordered the Skeleton Mage.
“corpse explosion.”
Remembrance!
The Skeleton Mage extended his staff. As soon as the magic circle unfolded from the end of the wand the zombie suddenly flinched and straightened up.
Soon it seemed that light shimmered in his pupils and mouth.
Aaaaaaaaaaagh!
really exploded
At the sudden roar the crowd lowered their stance letting out a frightened clamor. The judges also flinched and pulled back.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
Simon smiled contentedly as he looked inside the protective shield which was thick with smoke from the explosion.
“It feels like this.”
Soon Cerne blew another feather and used ventilation magic to dispel the explosion cloud and remove the shield.
Hugs buzzes buzzes!
Everyone was panicking and talking but Vintra of Tearing Papers shouted in annoyance.
“Baby quickly! Explain how you did this!”
“Yes. Judge.”
Simon got a hint from the recent siege theme where he exploded a monster with a corpse explosion.
Originally the Skeleton Mage was used as an aid when casting a Corpse Explosion on a monster but I thought what it would be like to use the Skeleton Mage’s natural power to use a Corpse Explosion.
“I chose a monster called Muspell as the material. It is a flame-type monster that lives in lava fields and explodes like a bomb.
Two of Simon’s mages were also Muspell. He walked slowly around and gave his explanation.
“It’s to make a pair of this Muspelle Zombie and Skeleton Mage.”
“Ohh!”
“You’ve never heard of Zombie Muspel again!”
The principle was not difficult. Engrave the same rune words on the summoning magic circles of ‘Skeleton Mage’ and ‘Zombie’.
It is the “Rune of Transmission”.
It was the same rune that Simon had used when he took Aaron’s Magiste System class.
“The Rune of Transmission is the key to Muspel Corpse Explosion.”
Muspell which is born in lava fields has a lifespan of one to two years after it becomes an adult. At the end of its lifespan it is destined to explode without being able to overcome the heat of its body.
However it is known in the world that if you kill Muspel and turn it into a zombie or a skeleton the explosion effect will completely disappear.
“I paid attention to causing this ‘explosive effect’ that I had in my life with corpse explosion magic.”
Simon’s theory was a breakthrough itself.
Normal corpse explosion is the principle of exploding only the core of the undead or the summoning magic circle with overload but Simon paid attention to the characteristics of the monster called Muspel.
Free and creative thinking that is not bound by academic knowledge. The necromancers sitting in the audience exclaimed each time Simon revealed the rune words and formulas he used.
“Unconventional!”
“What a genius idea!”
“An explosion using the physiological characteristics of a monster in its lifetime…!”
“How can you think of this?”
The audience started to get excited and the three judges started sweating profusely.
“That is all.”
After Simon finished his presentation he smiled.
I did not disclose all the formulas and principles and cut them off appropriately. Because I have to sell this thesis.
The announcement was cut off and voices full of regret erupted from everywhere but originally the Pentamonium was like this.
“Isn’t there any risk that the stored Muspel zombies will explode first?”
Tearing papers Vintra raised a question.
“As I said before when Muspell becomes a zombie the explosion option disappears. And the Muspel Skeleton Mage’s Corpse Explosion magic is the principle of forcibly creating and pressing the explosion switch that did not exist.”
This time Source Hell Calavan corrected his glasses and said.
“Why didn’t you cite the source at the back of the thesis?”
Simon shrugged.
“The ideas all came from my head.”
I’ve already looked through Calavan but Simon’s thesis didn’t overlap a single line with previous research.
Her mouth went in and this time Latoni the probation officer stood up.
“This is a grand act! It must have been intended to insult Pentamonium!”
“yes?”
“The jet-dark signal that can be sent through the transmission rune is a completely different area from the normal central nervous system! How can you prove that Muspell’s explosion was artificially created?”
“If you wish.”
Simon brought a nearby wheeled blackboard.
“I will prove it.”
Then he began to write down the proof of the transmission rune on the blackboard.
Tadat. fault. percussion. percussion. widely.
In the breathless silence only the sound of Simon’s chalk moving could be heard.
His hair and the hem of his shirt swayed and Simon wrote down a mathematical formula with a spirited look.
Theoretical insight.
Simon has already completed the process and has also completed the analysis using black mechanics. It was not difficult to enumerate the explosion process of rune words with formulas.
‘thank you. Professor Eric Aura!’
Everyone watched Simon move the chalk.
Soon percussion— Simon dropped his hand while marking points with chalk.
“Now is it?”
Absolutely perfect proof.
I had nothing to say.
‘This is really…’
Tearing Papers Vintra felt a stabbing run down his spine.
It is a revolution that goes beyond disruption.
The creativity and unexpectedness of that 17-year-old boy presented a new path to the existing rigid world of necromancers.
The things that I took for granted because my brain hardened the old common sense that I originally thought it should be have collapsed and are scattered on the floor and a new castle is built in front of my eyes.
match.
Vintra clapped his hands.
“Excellent!”
match. match.
The sound of hand clapping echoed throughout the audience.
Within.
Clap clap clap!
-Waaaaaaa!
It turned into roaring cheers and applause. Some pro necromancers even gave a standing ovation with excited faces.
Calavan the tricky source of hell and Latoni the proof warrior also clapped their hands with a bewildered expression.
Simon bowed his head and thanked everyone.
“That’s what I wanted!”
Excited Vintra jumped up from his seat.
“Many people had doubts about the level and significance of the ‘Student Thesis Presentation’. But today student Simon Pollentia proved its necessity! A new approach by students! Maybe we shared a moment of becoming. It’s great!”
“It is an honour.”
“You’re thinking of registering this thesis at the Pentamonium right?”
“Ah yes.”
“Come here!”
Simon didn’t know what Vintra meant by calling him but he walked in front of him.
“Take it.”
And what Bintra held out was a white piece of paper. The judges on both sides of the page glanced at the paper and vomited astonishment beyond fright.
“Commissioner Vintra!”
“It’s time for the thesis presentation! All of a sudden…!”
“There is no law against purchasing papers during presentations.”
Bintra’s eyes were shining as if she had already lost her mind halfway with greed.
Simon lifted the paper with a puzzled expression.
It was a check. However Vintra’s name was written on the payer’s signature but the amount column was empty.
“Judges. This is…”
“A blank check.”
Hugs buzzes buzzes!
At that there was an uproar in the audience.
“Hey what are you doing!”
“Aren’t you ashamed of being a judge?”
“If you want to buy you must compete fairly through bidding!”
When the professional necromancers shouted as their faces turned red Vintra laughed.
“Bid or whatever I’ll buy with the highest amount. Isn’t that what market logic is all about?”
Simon thought for a moment that this human in front of him was a necromancer to the core.
“Come on! Feel free to spend any amount you want! It doesn’t matter how much!”
He spread his arms and shouted loudly. Then he spoke softly so only Simon could hear.
“Necromancer students who study summoning are always in a hurry for money. You must have participated in the conference for that reason as well.”
“….”
blank check.
If I write down the amount all that amount is mine.
Lich’s lifevessel heart can also be purchased.
In a way you could call it an honor. When will I ever get a chance to receive something like this in my life?
Simon’s hand moved slowly.
“Now that’s right that’s right. Go ahead and pay-“
“Judges.”
Simon took the blank check.
And slowly.
It was lifted vertically to make it visible to Vintra.
“Why…”
GEEIK-
“!!!”
For a moment the entire presentation hall was enveloped in silence.
No one could move no one could breathe.
GEEIK-
While everyone in this space stood still only Simon’s hand tearing up the blank check was moving.
Jiik – Take it.
Simon who finally tore the blank check in half turned to Bintra who was trembling with a devastated expression.
“Are you in a bad mood?”
Simon smiled and folded the pieces of the blank check that had been torn in half.
“You showed sincerity for me because that’s what happens.”
And this time I started tearing it horizontally.
“So did our students.”
GEEEEIK-
The sound of paper tearing lingered in everyone’s ears.
Aland Sierra and even Moiran. All the students jumped up from their seats and opened their eyes wide.
“Despite the busy school schedule everyone who participated in this presentation gave their best effort. Although the amount of effort was different there was no one who did not work hard.”
-Filling the obvious without minimal preparation sincerity and worry. You were the one who ignored Pentamonium in the first place.
“Ignoring the pentamonium? How can a student disrespect the pentamonium unless he’s insane?”
-Kids these days are so out of touch.
-What are they teaching in Sierra?
“No one does well from the start. We did our best with what we had. Did the judges do well from the start?”
– It looks like garbage. 0 points.
And finally Simon looked at Bintra whose expression had completely collapsed and only his lips were trembling.
Bu-wook. Bu-wook. Bu-wook. Bu-wook.
“we are-“
Tearing papers just like Vintra did.
Simon dropped the shredded blank check in front of Vintra.
“It’s not trash. Judge.”
nobody in this world.
You have no right to laugh at someone who has worked hard.
