Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 600
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 600
A large-scale performance evaluation that begins after the midterm exam.
In a way it was a test that could be more important than the midterm exam which was only written.
As much as the professors held special lectures on Durahan the students also expected that there would be 100% performance evaluation related to Durahan so I wasn’t too surprised.
‘Something to come has come.’
Most of them thought so.
While everyone in the seat was staring at Aaron’s mouth his mouth finally fell.
“The content of this large-scale performance evaluation is ‘single undead operation’.”
Single undead operation.
According to Aaron’s explanation that follows students can only use ‘one undead’ in the exam hall. With that undead alone he had to solve all the requirements of the test.
“of course.”
Aaron added in a calm voice.
“You are free to use any undead in the test.”
At those words the lecture room exploded with a buzz like a pot boiling water.
Aseraj immediately raised his hand.
“I’m Aseras Mikel! Does the tier or type of undead matter?”
“okay.”
Aaron shook his head.
“Whether it’s a Tier 10 bone dragon or a Tier 1 skeleton the condition is that you can only use one undead. Other specific rules will be announced on the day of the test.”
Simon’s 10th immediately butted heads.
“Everything of course I thought it was a performance evaluation.”
Toto muttered.
“It’s actually different from a performance evaluation by Dyurahan.”
Simon said. Lorraine next to her also nodded.
“Simon is right. ‘Only one undead can be used’. If that’s the only condition most of the most powerful cards students can use are Dullahans.”
Of course there are exceptions such as Fitzgerald who uses ‘Siren Chimera’ and Chendra Gliwice who mainly uses ‘Grave Keeper Undead’.
Students who already have their own well-established specialized undead will have a headache thinking about which undead to send to the test.
“But no!”
As always Eshu interrupted the conversation with a high-pitched voice.
“In the meantime the professors of the Department of Summoning have been emphasizing Dullahan while attending special lectures and even camps right?”
“It did.”
Toto agreed and Eshu rubbed his hands together and gave a contemplative smile.
“Then common sense of course wouldn’t it be an advantageous test to use a Dullahan?
Simon looked at her with surprised eyes.
“It’s surprisingly sharp. Esch.”
“Heh! This is the basics… wait! What’s unexpected!”
Aaron said that the ‘specific rules’ will be announced on the day of the exam.
There is a nuance to this saying.
If you had a special lecture on Dullahan all week and the next performance evaluation was going to be a test that had nothing to do with Dullahan you would have announced the rules in advance or at least given a hint.
The same can be said of the relatively recent ‘Ghoul Performance Evaluation’ as an example. After the professors studied ghouls they evaluated them. This time it is reasonable and normal for the performance evaluation to come out after the special lecture on Durahan.
There is no room for worrying about these variables. Simon boldly raised the quill.
“Assuming that Eshu’s guess is correct we can roughly guess the contents of the test considering Dullahan’s abilities.”
-10 to 30 minutes specialized in short-term battles.
-A large amount of mana absorption and pitch black conversion.
– Great power and speed.
-Excellent durability.
-Can use weapon skills and auras.
Simon who had written this far put down the quill and grinned.
“The other things are a little vague but this one is certain.”
“What?”
“It must be a time-limited test.”
The members of the crew who heard that said ‘Oh~’ and shed a small exclamation.
“That’s right. Did you consider the short operation time of Dyurahan?”
“To reach this far with limited information.
Lorraine nodded and Eshu made a fuss. Simon waved his hand.
“No no. It’s a conclusion that everyone reached together.”
anyway.
‘Fitzgerald seems to be in trouble.’
I don’t know if it’s better to limit it to Dyurahan but the condition is that only one undead can be used.
If you are confident enough to not use Dyurahan in the specialized undead that also means recognition.
In fact looking at Article 11 Fitzgerald was frozen in the same position with his hand on the frame. He seemed to be in a lot of trouble.
“Then I made an announcement about the exam.”
Aaron opened his textbook.
“I’ll start the special lecture on Durahan again.”
“yes!”
The weekend that came after general subject classes.
At a timing that could be a little loose Aaron skillfully motivates the students and raises the tension with the theme of ‘exam’.
“Of course even if you use another undead for the test keep in mind that the completed Dyurahan is the subject of scoring separately from the performance evaluation.”
Fitzgerald who was deep in thought flinched and was seen grasping the quill.
“Everyone prepare. I will move to the practice room from now on.”
* * *
The students moved to the practice room.
‘Oger Lord-Abaddon-Guardian’ which is said to be the 3 major ingredients of Dullahan. Among them most of the students were taking out the body of ‘Abaddon’.
Abaddon is a swamp monster that walks on two legs and wields weapons reminiscent of a scaled reptile.
At first glance it looks similar to ‘Lizard Man’ but it is different from the common lizard man. It is also called the King of the Swamp and is quite powerful.
“What brand are you?”
“Fran brand! I wanted to buy it in vanilla but the budget is… hehe!”
The students were all taking out a full set of ‘Abaddon’ from the subspace. The vacuum-packed corpse was kept in optimal condition with various preservation magic circles.
“Keuheuheuk.”
Eshu pretended to cry and was taking out the Abaddon set from subspace.
She was the lowest-priced ‘Kerak’ brand. When the packaging was opened Abaddon’s corpse scaled in a mess was tied roughly with something like twine.
“My 6 months worth of part-time job…”
“I’ve spent all the money I donated.”
Toto next to him also took out an Abaddon of the ‘Kerak’ brand with a tearful face.
It wasn’t just the two of them many students were struggling with spending on a completely different level from the undead.
‘Should I take it out too?’
Simon also opened a subspace. What protruded from inside was a large coffin with a luxurious appearance with a combination of gold rims and black color.
In the middle of the coffin there was a fancy golden font that read ‘Vanilla’.
“oh!”
“It’s the ultimate vanilla brand!”
Simon who had plenty of money due to various missions went down to Rochester and bought a large set of vanilla brand Abaddon.
The attention of the students was focused everywhere.
“Open it quickly!”
“okay.”
Simon put his palm on the ‘security magic circle’ drawn on the coffin lid.
The magic circle sensed Simon’s darkness and released the security. Chwiiik in the coffin! I heard the sound of steam escaping and then it opened on its own.
“Wow!”
The coffin was filled with black flowers and inside it was the appearance of Abaddon the material of Dyurahan. Blood vessels were prominent in his body and his muscles were intact.
“It’s big! It looks like it’s two heads taller than my Abaddon?”
Of course the bigger and heavier the Abaddon the more expensive it is.
Eshu held up the black flower in the coffin.
“The demon flower that prevents corruption. Doesn’t just one flower cost hundreds of silver?”
“It must be really expensive.”
However it is not yet a full set.
What Simon took out next was black armor.
Since Dyurahan operates an explosive amount of jet black the advantage of being able to freely wear heavy and sturdy equipment that humans cannot even dare to wear.
And due to the nature of Dyurahan which absorbs mana with its entire body it was necessary to custom-made the armor considering the mana intake.
‘It’s really big.’
Simon raised a large helmet. It was so heavy that it would be difficult to lift without jet black.
Thinking that this heavy thing was worn by a dead body I could see how great the Necromancer’s black magic was.
“Look at the shine here.”
“The sleek design is missing.”
The students who were watching said one word at a time. Simon answered their words but his gaze was directed elsewhere.
‘Durahan made of Abaddon is surely strong but…’
You can’t beat a durahan made of the highest quality material ‘Guardian’. At the same time Hector and Asheraz who possessed the Guardian are also taking out Abaddon’s body.
Maybe it’s for keeping up with class. It’s fatal if you use precious materials for the first production and get damaged.
Undoubtedly at the time of the performance evaluation the Guardian will complete the Dyurahan.
‘Let’s not fret.’
Simon turned his head.
‘If I can complete the Dyurahan with the ingredients I prepared I will win unconditionally. For now let’s focus on learning the crafting method step by step.’
“fist.”
Just then Aaron entered the practice room. The students all stared at him with their mouths shut.
“Is there any student who didn’t bring practice materials?”
Behind them two students with their heads bowed and their arms raised. The expressions on the faces of the other students turned around.
Finding class materials is the basic of the basics.
In Keygen no one takes care of it. Whether it was working part-time or going out and catching monsters it was polite for the class to secure materials regardless of means and methods.
But Aaron didn’t get angry and nodded slowly.
“…Told the trader that he got two corpses of Abaddon that were old and stocked. Take those too.”
“Go thank you!”
“Of course the condition is not guaranteed. Until the test get a proper Abaddon and use it.”
“yes!”
The assistants brought me two corpses of Abaddon flying around. Some students with weak stomachs even held their noses.
It was in the worst condition to look at but I was lucky to be able to conduct classes with these materials now.
“Then let’s begin.”
Aaron put on his work gloves and continued. As if the students followed suit they put on gloves and made their eyes shine.
* * *
The weekend special lecture ended late at night.
“Uhhhhh.”
Students from the Summoning Department building were coming out with tired faces.
“Oh that’s tough!”
“So when do you study for other subjects midterms?”
Everyone was exhausted and trudging along. There was so much going on in her head that her head was about to explode.
And in the midst of this.
“I’ll go first!”
Simon was full of energy. As if she couldn’t stand it she quickly packed her bag and ran away.
Toto stretched out his arm.
“Sy Simon? Aren’t you going to the dorms?”
“Yeah! I think I’m going to be a little late. Go in first and rest!”
Eshu tilted his head as he watched his back quickly disappear.
“It’s great that you have the energy left to run but where are you going so busy? Are you going to comfort your girlfriend who broke her promise because she’s late for class?”
Lorraine smiled.
“Maybe I’m going to make a durahan.”
“also?”
Eshu jumped up.
“I only made durahan all day today?”
“Because Simon is such a child.”
Toto knowing Simon’s personality nodded silently. Eshu stuck out her tongue in disgust.
“Huh Chief Keyzen really isn’t for everyone. If you have to be strong like that to become Chief I’ll just give up!”
“…It would be difficult even if it was poisoned.”
Meanwhile Simon was running frantically.
I couldn’t stand it when I made my own durahan in class.
Simon laughed as he stepped on the jet black and ran.
‘I want to make it quickly!’
Simon who covered a long distance in an instant entered the mutant club room and turned on the light. Of course no one was left by this time.
I immediately jumped down to the basement unsealed it as Benya had taught me and went inside.
‘Fortunately he’s well.’
center of the basement.
We see the skull of Manus lying upright on a shelf. On the wall you can see large scratch scars from the previous incident.
Simon opened from the sub-space.
‘good! Let’s start right away.’
Simon opened the subspace without hesitation.
‘Tonight I’ll wake you up in a new body.’
