Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 733

Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 733

Hob a prosperous neighboring province.

It was unbelievable that this place had become a miserable ruin. Simon and Lethe walked around looking a bit bewildered.

It seemed that a great war had already begun. Buildings are all collapsed and dried bloodstains are visible. Dead horses and livestock were buried in ashes and large craters were dug everywhere as if a bomb had fallen.

There were many horrors that were difficult to express. Lethe who had been walking silently stopped at one point.

“….”

Dozens of red crosses hang over the hills of Hove. There are corpses and skeletons that seem to have been dead for a long time.

Necromancers the residents who helped them or just the corpses of the good people living here.

“are you okay?”

Simon asked anxiously.

She covered her mouth and lowered her head. She didn’t know if it was the trauma of the corpse or the shock of the tragedy the Holy Federation had staged.

Then as if he would not turn away he raised his head and stared at the cross.

“I may have thought it too easy until now.”

Lethe looked at the ruined village.

“I thought it would be enough to fight as soon as the war broke out. I would lead the warriors to Rok Island to drive out the Witch of Death and liberate the inhabitants of the Dark Alliance. I thought so.”

Everything was just the tip of the iceberg.

Under the name of the temple the tragedy and tragedy of the residents are thoroughly buried.

Apenel did not teach us that such a history existed.

“All I can think of is that I’m lucky.”

She sighed as she brushed her snow-white hair.

“This is the past and I know that this war will end someday. How painful and difficult must the people who lived in this era be?”

Children born in a time of peace who did not know war.

However only 22 years ago such a horror existed.

“The war may never end.”

Simon said firmly.

“If an alliance changes the past and separates father from mother.”

“yes.”

Lethe nodded and took her first step.

“Let’s go find the wagon.”

The two continued walking.

After 30 minutes of walking I saw the first living person a homeless person to be exact.

When I asked him what to do to get into the carriage he silently pointed forward.

As we continued to walk in the direction the homeless person pointed out Hove’s city center which had been less destroyed by the shelling came into view.

‘All the survivors were here!’

I thought everyone would be frustrated and despaired in the ruins but the residents of Hove were living steadfastly and tenaciously.

There were ‘open’ signs hanging on the general store and restaurant buildings that were in danger of collapsing and merchants were pulling carts out on the street and bargaining with people to sell their goods. A gentleman is seen exchanging an expensive-looking picture in a frame for a piece of bread.

It’s noisy and laughter is heard from time to time.

Looking back it was a pitch-black ruin but people were persistently living like weeds. Simon smiled for the first time after stepping back into the past.

“Because there are people like this Hob must have become bustling again in our time.”

“Yes I guess so.”

Lethe laughed softly.

Occasionally there were wagons roaming the streets so I could tell that the drivers were in business. The two of them arrived at the resting place of the coachmen.

There he started asking questions of anyone in a coachman’s suit.

“I want to go here.”

Lethe said pointing to the former Neutral Zone the current Bahilla Territory on the map. Seeing the map the coachman’s expression hardened.

“…Nonsense. Lady this area is a battlefield right now.”

“A battlefield?”

“It’s one of the fronts where Kizen and Epenel are fighting the most fiercely. Even a thousand lives aren’t enough.”

The coachmen one by one refused to let go of the crane.

Simon accustomed to such refusal by now showed a jingling purse in his bag.

“I’ll give you any money.”

“Well money isn’t the problem…”

Because of the war the value of currency is extremely low. Money was just shiny metal.

“Why don’t we just buy a wagon?”

Lethe came up with the same idea this time but Simon shook his head.

“Neutral Zone. No you don’t know how many times you’ll encounter a battlefield on the way to Bahilla. To avoid war you need the help of an expert who knows the right way.”

At least until they arrived in Bahilla they needed the skills and know-how of a coachman.

The two went around asking the coachmen diligently.

finished then

“I’ll buy something from work today so wait for me.”

A coachman was getting out of a collapsed house. Through the wall five children can be seen seeing off their father huddled together.

The coachman turned his back and was about to walk but Simon jumped forward.

“Ouch what a surprise.”

“I want to go to the Bahilla estate. I’ll give you any amount of money.”

“Bahilla is not in a war for a long time. And the money…”

Then Lethe walked over.

“How about something like this if you don’t have much money?”

She lifted the sack. Her coachman’s eyes widened as he examined her sack.

“Could this be a date?”

A bag was full of various fruits including date palms. Actually she is Anna’s favorite fruit so she took it as a special product but she never thought it would be used like this.

With this amount two months should be sufficient.

“I’ll give you half now and I’ll give you the other half when it arrives. How is it?”

Eventually the coachman nodded.

Because crops died due to the Gray Judgment and fruits could not be eaten freely the value of food was more precious than a thousand gold.

“Can we leave today?”

* * *

After saving the wagon it was a battle of patience and waiting.

Simon and Lethe slept and woke up in the carriage over and over again. I got used to the fireballs and white lightning that flew like a nightmare in the sky.

The corpses of the dead on the streets were familiar to the eyes and the soldiers’ checks spread all over the place became grave.

Crossing the shortest distance like that the two finally entered the Bahilla domain called the Neutral Zone in the future.

“…Is this really the neutral zone I know?”

Bahila was a very dense jungle. It was completely different from the image of the desert that comes to mind when Simon mentions the Neutral Zone.

Lette explained waving her fingers.

“In the era we lived in it was collectively called ‘neutral zone’ but in the past Bahilla was said to have been divided into 20 territories. It was a great jungle with well-developed vegetation.”

“But how come…”

“It’s a border area between the Holy Commonwealth and the Dark Union so frequent wars were a problem.”

Lethe sighed and spoke.

“It is said that soil contaminated with black magic or ground that has been excessively purified with white magic recovers intelligence over time. They say it becomes a place where nothing can grow.”

As the desertification accelerated the people who lived in the Bahilla Territory began to leave one by one in search of a better place to live and the influence and power of the Bahilla Territory greatly diminished.

After the Peaceful Era Agreement the Dark Alliance and the Holy Commonwealth decided to place the useless land of Bahilla as a kind of border to create a border.

In this way the land that does not belong to either of the two powers the current ‘neutral zone’ was created. The concept of a neutral zone has been widespread since the era of peace.

Anyway when I entered the Bahilla Mansion there were more frequent explosions than before and war scars were easily visible everywhere.

The terrified coachman eventually said that he would not go further and instead decided to give the wagon a barrel. He revealed that he would buy his horse nearby and return to Hob.

So Simon and Lethe alone rode in a carriage and continued their journey.

Lethe rode the horse wearing the same coachman’s outfit he had when he came up to Les Hill. Simon sat beside her and talked with her about this and that.

“Listening to Nephthys-sama originally I was planning to come to the past alone.”

Simon smiled.

“You don’t know how reassuring I am to have you with me Lethe.”

“joy.”

Lethe snorted and smiled.

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m not here because of you. This is Miss Anna’s problem.”

“Yeah that’s right.”

“Ah! Have you ever seen Ms. Anna wearing the Ephnell uniform? There’s a picture on the student list at the Ephnell library!”

Suddenly in a fit of excitement she put her hands on my cheeks and let out a short scream.

“It’s really really really really beautiful and cute! To the point where I want to bite it! Ahh. The day will come when I can see the teenage teacher Anna in real life!”

Simon thought for a moment about Anna wearing the Ephnel school uniform Lethe wore every time.

“Uh um.”

Simon scratched the side of his head awkwardly.

“…I can’t quite imagine something.”

“Ah! You have to see this for yourself.”

She who had been fond of stamping her feet suddenly put her chin on her face with a cold face.

“Haa if the man who stole such a pretty noble and talented teacher Anna…”

“What about my father!”

“He’s a flirtatious necromancer.”

There was no way to refute that statement.

Lethe said sullenly.

“Fate is also a chaam organization. For the sake of world peace those two people have to be connected.”

“…You really came to help me right?”

“I put my personal feelings aside don’t worry I’ll do everything perfectly.”

She continued waving her reins.

“I’m just worried about how I can coax Miss Anna into meeting Richard. To be honest I still don’t know what Richard’s charm is.”

Anna abandoned everything she had built up until now and followed Richard.

Of course in the future she gave birth to Simon in a secluded Les Hill and is living a sweet and happy life but isn’t that the future?

At that time it was difficult for Lethe to understand why the young Anna gave up everything and followed Richard the necromancer.

Lethe who was groaning and lost in thought looked at Simon.

“What kind of person was your father when he was young?”

“hmm.”

Neither Richard nor Anna were the types to talk about their past. Because it could put your safety in danger.

Simon recalled all the stories he had heard about his father.

As a child she gave up her real name and acted under the name of Yona due to rebellion against the Pollentia family and her father.

A huge talent chosen by peers.

Kizen dropped out of second year.

And as a corps commander he achieved a brilliant career and contributed countless times to the Dark Alliance.

Then while trying to save Anna in crisis he was given the stigma of being a traitorous legion and completely disappeared from the history of the continent.

‘But it seems like there were a lot of problems in my personal life.’

The people who talked the most about Richard.

Elizabeth and Grand Duke Jin of the North.

Summing up their stories.

‘…a playful playful man.’

At that conclusion Simon shook his head and smiled.

“…Still he’s a great corps commander.”

“Yes yes you would.”

Lethe who had been muttering so looked at the sky startled.

“Damn it hold on tight.”

“huh?”

She hastily tugged at the reins. Simon also raised her head belatedly.

‘ah!’

A shower of black meteors was pouring down from the sky.
