Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 670

“A hidden secret?”

Simon tilted his head.

Count Baldmont leaned his upper body toward Simon his eyes shining.

“Okay so why don’t you join hands with me?”

Sudden alliance offer.

“Your every move is being reported. Not only did you perform impressively in Kizen but you entered as an apprentice to Grand Duke Jin who did not build any personal relationships. You even blocked an arrow shot by Jin! The arrows of the anti-aircraft that were sent in one blow!”

The Count spread his palms.

“Your strength helps. Work with me!”

It only raised this side but the other side hadn’t revealed its cards yet.

Simon’s reaction was rather dull and the Count chuckled.

“Yeah good. This is a very secret of the secrets.”

The count put on a pod with a serious face.

“Resources! In the North to be exact there are huge underground resources buried in the vicinity of Frost Field! Even if I just figured out so far there are eleven magic stone mines and two sapphire mines!”

he spread his arms

“Can you imagine? You and me. It’s a reserve that will allow our entire family to live affluent lives without earning a single penny for several generations! The savage northerners don’t know its value! Even if you explain it to them they’re bored! That’s their life of struggle. What’s the use of it? Fools who only know how to fight! If I just pick up some gems that have fallen there and sell them I can build a luxurious mansion in the warm and peaceful South where I don’t see monsters for the rest of my life.”

he mate! They clashed their palms loudly.

“Let’s do it! 10%!”

Then he pointed to Simon’s chest.

“I’ll give you 10% of all profits! Let’s turn the world upside down together! Kick the ass of the high-ranking aristocrats who laugh at us…!”

“wait for a sec.”

Simon raised his palm. The excited count stopped him and blinked his eyes.

“You don’t like the terms? Then 15%?”

“No no. The premise is strange.”

Simon sighed inwardly and continued.

“The North is the land of the Grand Duke so how are you going to take the mine?”

“To be precise only the north except for ‘Frost Field’ is the territory of the Grand Duke. In fact you don’t have to worry about that part at all. I have a thorough plan! Northerners don’t know the value of underground resources so if you slightly tweak the contract It’s not even a job to take ownership of the mine.”

Have you already considered a contract? Simon laughed bitterly.

“I just got rid of the three brothers isn’t it too hasty?”

“Is it really so?”

Count Baldmont made a meaningful expression.

“The North God who lost his three brothers is nothing. The North God is just terrifying because he controls a vast number of undead and the North God itself has no combat capability! He can never stop the anti-aircraft. This fight is as good as over.”

He pointed at Simon again with the tip of his finger.

“The important thing is that while everyone else is focusing on getting rid of the North God we should broaden our horizons and think about the next thing!”

“….”

Simon closed his eyes.

They are still talking round and round hiding important cards. Earl Baldmont is young but not an ordinary person.

this opponent.

“When the war is over are you asking me to betray the Grand Duke?”

It’s better to just put down the pretense and stick to the core.

In a fleeting moment Simon saw Count Voldmont’s fingertips tremble slightly. However the expression on his face was still smiling.

“It’s not a betrayal it’s about making things effective for everyone. It’s all for the North.”

The Count responded confidently and pointed at his chest.

“Didn’t I tell you that I would be able to reap the resource profits by myself? In the North where the war with the Northern Gods has ended change is inevitable whether we like it or not. We will no longer need the pride courage and fighting skills of the guardians. I will make people enjoy it like a human being.”

He tapped my chin.

“Of course it is true that in the new north after the war there is no need for a ridiculous non-standard monster like Grand Duke Jin. Well it would be nice if you volunteered to go to a place like the Holy Commonwealth Front.”

Simon felt several things in his conversation.

The love and hatred for the North where he has lived for over ten years.

Feeling inferior to the grand duke who had absolute strength and charisma.

And above all.

“you.”

Simon glared at Count Voldmont.

“You deny the culture of the North.”

The ambivalence of hating the north but denying its culture.

“that’s right.”

Count Baldmont raised his hand and acknowledged it coolly.

“Have you tried to win the approval of the northerners?”

“I don’t see any need for savage recognition.”

The count’s expression which had always been relaxed became sharper.

“I’ve been building railroads connecting the north and the south! I’ve been dealing with the merchants and supplying food tightly! I’ve supplied necessary supplies without a shortage and I’ve tried to bring in various cultures. I’m also doing my part for the north! But Residents insult and ridicule me as a snob who only knows how to make money and use a calculator!”

The count’s face flushed red.

“Ten years! I came to the North at the age of nine and lived there for ten years and they still call me ‘outsider’ or ‘southern!’ Humans who could not stand it and would have starved to death!”

bang!

he knocked down the armrest.

“Why! Why are people who don’t fight here treated like trash? People are just different in what they’re good at! I…!”

Having said that the count bit his lip.

It shows a strong will not to speak behind the scenes. I let out a breath as if my emotions had calmed down.

“Sorry friend. I looked like I couldn’t see you.”

“are you okay.”

As an outsider like Simon I understood his feelings.

Simon also got into a fight with the warriors from the first day he came to the north and was retaliated against on the second day. Of course Simon had the power so he could cope but what about ordinary people without power?

‘and.’

Simon recalled the servants he had seen in this mansion.

You might think they were simply hired servants for the convenience of the count but there were chain marks on their wrists and necks.

Perhaps sinners who sinned and fled to the North.

However they were not strong enough to adapt to the North. Count Baldmont was taking in outsiders who hadn’t become Northerners.

For the Grand Duke the Grand Duke’s justice.

A count has the definition of a count.

which one to choose

“Simon.”

Count Baldmont pointed in Simon’s direction with his index and middle fingers.

“20% of all mine profits. To be honest the finances are tight even with the reconstruction of the North but it’s the utmost sincerity I can give.”

“….”

“I don’t know how long I’ll stay in the North and return to Kizen but life as a necromancer costs a lot of money right?”

he raised an eyebrow.

“By the time you return to Keygen you will be the best capitalist in Keygen!

“No I’ll tell you right now.”

Simon got up from his seat and took his coat.

* * *

Simon is gone.

Count Baldmont was staring out the window with his hands behind his back.

– I’m sorry but I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that suggestion.

That was Simon’s answer.

The Count looked out the window with a bitter smile. Simon is seen returning to the Archduke’s castle alone.

“Count.”

“Come in.”

An elderly butler entered.

“Simon the student council president…”

“Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to get them on the same side.”

Count Baldmont looked back.

“I have no choice now. Keep the plan as it is.”

The butler bowed deeply.

“Yes I will follow the Count’s orders.”

the next morning.

Simon went to work at the grand duke’s castle today as well.

The warriors who were seen everywhere on the streets and castles were working fine even after drinking so much yesterday.

The traces of the duel were also neatly organized and the wounded were also dressed up with bandages and were ready for the next battle.

‘It’s not long before the final battle with the North God.’

Simon also had to grow even more as a corps commander. He knocked on the door of the office with a determined resolve once again.

smart smart

“Grand Duke this is Simon.”

thud!

Udang-dang-dang-tang!

I hear something loud in the office. You can also hear the sound of running around. Simon knocked again a little startled.

“What’s going on?”

“Nothing! Don’t come in yet!”

after a while like that.

Simon went inside. The surroundings are neat and tidy. Then I see a dark-haired woman sitting in her chair looking back.

“You’re wearing a uniform today not training clothes right?”

said Simon sitting on the hospitality couch.

“You can’t just train all the time can you?”

She said that still looking back. Simon saw the training top sticking out of the drawer.

“Did you sleep well last night?”

Simon talked about this and that as usual but somehow the Archduke’s reply was not the same as usual.

There were also cases where a short answer was given or a reply was given after a while.

Above all right after meeting in the office she never looked back at Simon.

Simon broke out in a sweat.

‘My did I do something wrong?’

Maybe there was something wrong when I took the drunken Archduke into bed last night. She may have said or done something that she felt was offensive.

But if it’s not that kind of fault.

“I.”

Simon raised his head and looked straight at the Archduke.

“I came to see Count Voldmont yesterday.”

Many warriors saw him talking to Count Voldemort’s servant and soon after Simon disappeared from the banquet hall.

People must have guessed that he went to see the Count.

Since the relationship between the Archduke and the Earl of Voldmont couldn’t have been good there was nothing to say even if the back story came out. It might be better to reveal the truth here.

“Right.”

She still didn’t look back.

“I wanted to confirm that I knew my name and identity.”

“okay.”

The Archduke shrugged.

“Obviously. He must have offered you another deal or something.”

To have a rough guess.

Simon also nodded.

“It doesn’t matter what was said in there whether you accepted the deal or not.”

The Archduke rose from his seat.

“Aren’t we also in a trading relationship where each other uses each other? I teach you and you cooperate with me. That’s all. There’s nothing wrong with you having another transaction with someone else.”

Simon smiled faintly. She turned her body and walked away.

“Come out. The day of the decisive battle is right around the corner. Today let’s train mainly for actual combat.”

“yes!”

However even while following the Archduke the Archduke never looked back at Simon.

Simon scratched the side of his head.

and.

‘It’s difficult.’

The Archduke was sweeping the palm of his hand that covered his forehead.

‘Why are you procrastinating on something I can just ask?’

The Archduke glanced back at Simon.

Then as Simon was about to meet his eyes he quickly looked back and looked straight ahead.

After that day I couldn’t even look into the eyes properly. It was because his face was constantly put on the side.

‘They look so ridiculously similar.’
