Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 659
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 659
Second day in the North. Simon accompanied the Archduke on horseback.
The purpose is to intercept the approaching undead forces targeting Vilkenos. Before long an undead army made up of zombies from monsters in the north appeared.
-It’s a mission.
Right before the battle the Archduke who was fully armed in black full plate armor said so.
– Try to win the battle with only one type of undead. If you can’t even do that you’re not qualified.
Simon also responded.
– Let me show you.
And so the battle began.
What Simon chose was the ‘carp spider’ unit he had been using for a long time. Erzebet or Simon himself had to annihilate the opposing forces only with his command.
It was unfamiliar at first.
Up until now the Ancient Undead had always been in command of each unit and Simon himself had been fighting while wearing Fear and wielding the Greatsword of Destruction at the forefront.
But you’re commanding troops from behind.
‘Okay advance little by little!’
I began to see things that I hadn’t seen before.
How the undead accept orders when given them. How far the troops move and how far the orders reach.
Fight roughly! And it wasn’t all about ramming troops.
more efficiently.
more tactically.
The reason Simon chose the corpse spider for this battle was the geographical feature.
Since the surrounding area was a forest we used the trees as much as possible. In front large spiders were sent to block the zombies’ movement with their bodies and the rest of the spiders climbed trees and came down from the air to attack them.
The number of enemies greatly decreased each time the carrion spiders descended like a pendulum on the webs and assaulted the zombies.
‘Continue pressing from the left and right!’
The undead that leaked out here became the victims of the northerners. I couldn’t miss a single one.
It blocked the side by operating a standby group at the rear and blocked it by sending a ‘web’ a spider web technology.
Little by little you gain know-how.
Zombies can’t kill or break through if there’s a kin in front of them and they stagnate as they are. The zombies were tied together with spider webs to form a wall and gradually reduced their territory.
but.
‘Ugh!’
It was hard to adapt to the psychological shock of being forcibly interrupted by an undead ally.
The fatigue of giving orders was enormous but the fatigue that the destroyed object gave to Simon was piled up and his mind was confused.
‘I have to save the guys in front!’
Aside from being devastated the population of carrion spiders brought to the north is not infinite. I wanted to save someone who could be saved in preparation for the big battle ahead.
Simon focused on controlling the spiders in front.
‘Shoot the spider web with your leg to block it that’s right! Climb up the tree and avoid as much as possible…’
Fuck!
Suddenly the back of his head felt a shock and Simon fell to the floor. My concentration flew away at once and my mind went white.
Simon looked back.
It was not an enemy attack. The Archduke on horseback was holding a scabbard. In the helmet the blue eyes shone.
[Calm down stupid thing.]
“Duke! What is this…!”
[Look at the right wing.]
Simon’s gaze went straight to the right wing. The northern zombies were breaking through the loose right wing encirclement and slipping away.
[You lost a great country while trying to save a small number of subordinates.]
She said.
[You must have developed vulgar habits living in a peaceful school. Who told you to fight with the necromancer’s fighting method?]
‘!’
Simon felt a tingling current run down his spine.
[It’s a necromancer’s way of fighting to make good use of the small number of undead. We are corps commanders!]
The Archduke raised his sword and commanded. She covered Simon’s mistake by having her phantom Dullahans under her command ride her horse and kill the escaped zombies.
[The corps commander must always read the great battle situation. If you cling to the few the many suffer. look big! If you’re going to die don’t force it to live let it die. Instead of dying on this side think about what damage you can do to the other side!]
Power entered Simon’s eyes as he stood up.
‘That’s right.’
focused once again.
Let the front slide. The weight difference between spiders and zombies is an unavoidable problem.
instead.
‘Deep lure and siege!’
The spiders began to annihilate the zombies that entered deeply.
The carrion spider has a web. Actively used the stagnant phenomenon which was held by a spider web and prevented from moving.
Zombies will be stagnant but corpse spiders can attack from the sky as they fly in webs.
Offense is the best defense. The front which had been pierced before I knew it also found stability.
[Something like an idiot. You have to make mistakes to understand what I’m saying.]
Even in the midst of this the Archduke’s grunts could be heard but the tone of his voice was relaxed.
Time passed like that.
“Haaa.”
Simon succeeded in annihilating all of the opponent’s forces with only the corpse spider. As soon as the battle was over he sat down and gasped for breath.
‘I did it I did it.’
It was a different feeling than when I was learning at school. Above all he always had to pay attention to people’s eyes when operating the corps.
But here in the north it was different. The Archduke was able to move the undead all over the North and even if people saw it it was enough to say that it was the Archduke’s undead troops.
On this wide snow-covered field I was able to operate the corps to my heart’s content.
Took.
Simon turned his head. The canteen was off.
[It was narrowly passed. Replenish moisture.]
“thank you!”
Simon opened the lid and gulped down the water.
After the battle the archduke was also seen taking off his helmet. It was always impressive to see her long tangled hair pouring down like a waterfall.
[A guy who can’t even pay for his meal is greedily drinking well. How long do you plan on spreading? The next battle.]
The canteen suddenly fell from Simon’s hand.
“No are you kidding?”
she grinned.
[I’m serious. didn’t you say I will thoroughly roll it and eat it.]
* * *
After two more battles with the Grand Duke he returned.
The next battle was resolved with only zombie troops and the next battle with only skullwing troops.
He knew the characteristics of each undead but melting them in battle was another matter. Thanks to this Simon was able to firmly implant the various tendencies of the undead into his head.
[Something like an idiot! Don’t the undead escape!]
Whenever Simon made a mistake the Archduke had no forgiveness.
Hit them with a sheath trip them over their legs and trip them.
Although he was intimidated by the ignorant education unique to northerners.
“Huh!”
Every time that happened Simon’s eyes were shining with concentration as he got up without any signs of struggling. Even if I was hit I got up again and focused.
[Gonom even though his head is bad I like one look.]
Even the Grand Duke who became a demon during training had no choice but to acknowledge Simon’s attitude.
By the time the surroundings turned black all battles were over.
“Huh.”
Simon was going back on his horse limp. The Grand Duke took off his helmet and clicked his tongue.
“What’s the hardship of a young guy? How to have face even in a victory keep your back upright.”
Even as he said that the Archduke also smiled mischievously. Simon slowly raised his upper body.
“You’re still busy.”
Even while taking care of Simon the Grand Duke would move the undead troops scattered in the north or fire arrows to respond to the rider’s request for support.
He must have suffered as much as Simon but he doesn’t look tired at all. Monstrous stamina and phenomenal mental strength.
‘He must be at this level to become a hero of mankind.’
It was no exaggeration to say that this vast northern region was being maintained thanks to her existence.
“It’s a feeling.”
The Grand Duke opened his mouth.
“Is there anything else you would like to learn?”
“hmm.”
Although his body and mind were exhausted Simon’s eyes sparkled again at the word learning.
After thinking for a moment he opened his mouth.
“Do you know Magnus Alban the commander of the 5th corps?”
she grinned.
“You know that bastard.”
* * *
Simon recalled the situation when he faced Magnus.
It was during the hostage negotiations after the Pentamonium incident.
Simon brought the zombie butler he had captured at Pentamonium and Magnus brought the Archemus he was holding. The purpose was to exchange the two Ancient Undead.
Then Magnus said.
-As a direct senior can I tell you something? The true use of the Ancient Undead.
Magnus did ‘something’ to the zombie butler who was captured by Simon’s army. He didn’t touch it and he didn’t show any signs of using black magic. Then the spider web and curse amulet that bound the zombie butler were torn and the zombie butler was released and his body grew like a giant.
Enhancement of the Ancient Undead.
Not only that the zombie butler spit out a white liquid from his mouth and from that liquid he raised ‘white ghosts’ the elite soldiers. It was definitely not the zombie butler’s original ability.
“That’s it.”
The Grand Duke who had been quietly listening to Simon’s explanation spoke.
“It’s a technique called ‘Gameheim’ that can be used when the corps commander and the ancient undead team up. Let’s just say it’s a trump number that only the ancient undead of the corps can use.”
You had such a skill! Simon’s eyes sparkled.
“Perhaps the Archduke…!”
“Of course I can use the Ancient Undead I have.”
“Well then can you teach me?”
She groaned and wrinkled her brow.
“Okay. Starting tomorrow bring the Ancient Undead one by one.”
nice!
Simon clenched his fists.
“I’ll tell you exactly because you stupid brain can misunderstand. Geheim is not a skill that I can teach from start to finish. All I can do is analyze and consult with experience.”
Simon raised a question mark.
“Is it because each Ancient Undead has a different personality?”
“Now your stupid brain is working. Even if the corps commander changes the Ancient Undead’s Geheim also changes. It’s only a skill between you and your Ancient Undead. There’s no room for me a third party to intervene.”
This also meant that Simon and Richard’s Geheim were different even though they were the same 7th corps commanders.
She raised the corner of her mouth.
“First of all getting to know each other is probably the most important thing. You’ll be very busy while you’re in the North.”
It’s important to get to know each other.
It was a tickling feeling as if I knew it or not. Simon thought for a moment then raised his head.
“Can you give me a hint?”
“I told you to bring it tomorrow. You’re impatient. Yes hmm.”
She rubbed her aching shoulder and fell into thought.
Then he opened his mouth.
“Think about why your ancient undead want to follow you. That’s where it starts.”
Simon thought deeply.
‘The reason why the ancient undead follow me.’
Come to think of it I remembered the fact that I had decided to have a glass of wine with Elizabeth tonight.
First I decided to start with Elizabeth.
