Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner - Chapter 966
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Episode 966
“Who is meeting who?”
Lethe approached with light steps.
The face was smiling, but the atmosphere it gave off was the exact opposite. Simone and Broderick flinched as if they had just witnessed a walking bomb.
Broderick, who soon came to his senses first, bowed while sweating profusely.
“Meet the daughter closest to the goddess…!”
“Professor Broderick?”
Lethe said in a cold voice.
“I understand that the professor has no schedule for participation in the worship service curriculum. “You said they forced the selected students to major?”
“no! That is not coercion, but spreading the sacred gospel….”
“More than anything.”
Lethe smiled brightly and suddenly grabbed Simon’s ear, who was looking at her next to him, and pulled him.
“Ahh!”
Simon, whose ears were being held, let out a short scream without realizing it.
“You’re trying to lure a prospective student who’s on probation and arrange a relationship with the opposite sex.”
Grumble!
A fire lit up her eyes.
“Selected students are strictly prohibited from dating the opposite sex.”
Broderick immediately shrunk and lowered his head in a way that did not befit his large size. Simon, who was holding his ear, spoke urgently.
“That’s not it! Wow! “I want to meet Professor Gahyun…!”
“?”
Lethe looked at Simon and Simon mouthed ‘Operation! Operations!’ He kept saying.
Only then did she let go of Simon’s ear.
“It’s not anyone else, it’s Professor Broderick, so I’ll overlook it, but make sure something like this doesn’t happen again in the future.”
“I am just devastated by Saint Lady Seo’s merciful mercy!”
Broderick answered hastily. Lethe turned her back and walked away, and Simon greeted Broderick and quickly followed her side.
“What are you doing?”
One of my ears still tingled.
As Simon protested, Lethe, holding his back, turned her head, her white hair flowing like waves.
“What do you mean?”
The smile was the same as before, but surprisingly, the angry mood seemed to have calmed down a bit compared to before.
“Why were you so angry earlier?”
“Of course I have to pay.”
She waved her index finger.
“The professor is also watching, so shouldn’t the person in charge of the worship meeting just ignore the fact that the selected student is dating the opposite sex?”
“…That’s right.”
“Rather than that, the reason you want to meet Gafen is probably because of ‘Sernet’ at that school, right?”
Simon nodded.
“I remember.”
“It was an impressive meeting on Locke Island.”
When Lethe came to Rock Island to catch the crazy fanatic ‘Ever Kyre’, Lethe also met Cerne.
-If you want to find your roots, find a person named ‘Gahyun’ from Shinsung Federation.
Words left by future Simon.
The roots of Cerne.
But even if she wants to come to Sky Island, she cannot. Since I’ve come this far, I wanted to solve things that couldn’t be done in Keygen.
“Umm, is it possible for Professor Broderick to bring Professor Gafen? “Someone who no one knows where they are?”
“You have to believe it.”
In fact, at first, Simon asked Lete to do the same, but Lethe did not have a special relationship with Gafen, and he went down from Sky Island for vacation and cut off all contact and went on a trip.
But Broderick seemed to have a way to find him.
“This problem is over now. Rather, you’re going to Afnel’s library without me knowing, right?”
Simon looked shocked. Lethe laughed and continued.
“I don’t care what else you plan to do here, but please remember what’s most important.”
Simon nodded quickly.
“Of course. “We must find the saint and the murderer.”
“….”
Lethe quietly looked at Simon. Was it not the answer you wanted? While Simon was thinking that, Lethe quickly took the lead.
“It’s the weekend tomorrow. Do you have time?”
“of course.”
She curled the corners of her mouth like a scoundrel and placed her index finger on her lips.
“Let’s go investigate together.”
***
So the next morning.
It’s the first weekend on Sky Island.
During this time, selected students are also given complete freedom. Of course, there is a restriction that staying out overnight is strictly prohibited and you have to come to your accommodation to sleep.
And today is the day I decided to conduct a joint investigation with Lethe.
Simon took off his Epnel school uniform for the first time in a while and appeared in front of the commercial district in civilian clothes. I put my hat on tightly and leaned against a street lamp in a daze.
“city. “Mon.”
I hear a voice that rustles like a spring breeze. Simon said, ‘Are you here?’ The moment I turned my head to answer, I unconsciously made a sound like I was out of breath.
A light blue blouse and a skirt that falls neatly above the knees.
A ribbon attached to the end of the hair and a bag worn lightly on the shoulder.
Above all, his hair was not white like snow, but slightly golden, and he was wearing twin tails.
“Good morning.”
She waved her hand and spoke in an energetic voice.
Simon pointed at her, his fingertips trembling.
“What…?”
“Because I am a saint, people recognize me a lot.”
She tapped my shoulder twice as if she was tired.
“Whenever I go somewhere, the streets are blocked off, people are flocking in, people are asking me to pray, and I’m so tired that sometimes I dress up like this and go out alone.”
“….”
She hummed and took a step in front of Simon, her eyes shining brightly.
“Is there something you want to say?”
“No, that…”
I sense a refreshing lemon scent, a little different from the usual elegant lily scent. Simon, whose cheeks were stained red, looked away and scratched his cheek.
“Because it’s unfamiliar.”
Phew.
She laughed out loud, turned around and walked ahead.
“Let’s go.”
“Uh, where?”
“To the investigation location.”
***
The first place we arrived with Lethe was the Forest of Divine Beasts.
The lifespan of a divine beast is longer than that of a human. Individuals that live from 100 to 300 years often exist. However, since the divine beasts only choose one master in their lifetime, a place was needed to manage the divine beasts after the master died.
So, on Epnel’s Sky Island, there is a forest that manages the remaining divine beasts after their master dies, and this place is called the ‘Forest of Divine Beasts.’
Simon and Lethe asked the Divine Forest ranger the whole story.
“It is a structure where intruders cannot exist.”
The manager continued speaking, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
“There are many sensitive and fierce divine beasts in this forest. They obsessively protect their territory. “If there had been an outside intruder, it would have been torn to pieces by the divine beasts who would have smelled it and rushed in.”
“okay.”
Simon affirmed those words and looked to the side.
“Mane Mane….”
Beside him, Lethe was seen sitting on the grass and playing with the divine beasts. Mammal beasts, including deer, played with Lethe by licking her cheeks or biting her fingers, and all kinds of birds and squirrels were perched on her head and shoulders.
The manager is great. He cleared his throat.
“The star saint’s affinity for divine beasts is at the highest level in Afnel. This rarely happens…”
-Crumbling!
Before he knew it, his mother, Serapion, had caught Simon’s scent and came out to meet him, showing affection to him. Simon fell down and Serapion’s cub came up and licked Simon’s cheek. The divine birds flew in and naturally sat on Simon’s body.
The manager’s face brightened.
“It’s rare! This is the first time I have seen this in my 15 years of security experience! “It’s really rare!”
Simon adjusted his posture and looked at him.
“To sum it up-”
Simon hugged the baby Serapion while making a ‘utcha’ sound.
-Why!
Perhaps because it was still a cub, it sounded more like a cat than a lion.
“A person with excellent sensitivity to spiritual beasts would have been able to safely take Serapion’s baby.”
“That’s the theory, but Serapion’s cub is very wary, so it will be quite difficult!”
Simon and Lethe made eye contact at the same time.
Soon, Lethe came over and whispered quietly so as not to be heard by the ranger.
“Do you remember all the students who had Shinsoo in Simon’s new math class?”
“of course.”
Of the 10 selected students, 6 had Shinsoo.
No. 1, Meryl, No. 2, Sway, No. 3, Maricello, No. 8, Atula, No. 9, Lisara, No. 10, Simon.
“The scope is still wide, but the number of suspects has been reduced from 10 to 5.”
“yes.”
After obtaining enough information, I escaped from the Forest of Divine Beasts.
The next place to go was the village.
This is the village where baby Serapion was discovered.
‘Ah, I’m used to this place.’
A rural village not far from the Forest of Divine Beasts.
It was near the sacred site where Simon was attacked by a divine beast during the Mohang Festival, and it was a village where people wore strange masks and danced at night.
It was also the place where I met Sway No. 2.
Lethe quickly led the way, looking at the map she had spread out, and soon entered a rural home where the Serapion cub was found.
An old woman lived there alone.
“I was returning home with a sharp pain in my lower back after watching the Mohang Festival, but I suddenly heard a crying sound! When I got there, my dog was yapping and meowing, and there was Shinsoo in the basket next to it. “I was surprised and reported it right away.”
“Did you go right back and report it? “Grandma must have had a hard time!”
“Uhuhu, thank you for taking care of my grandmother’s health. Oh my gosh. “Our granddaughter is just about the age of a young lady.”
The old woman patted Lethe’s head, and Lethe also laughed. While she was being loved by the old woman, Simon was chopping firewood with his sleeves rolled up and an ax in his hand.
‘Why am I doing this?’
Of course, it was an action to win points for the old woman with a sore back.
Lethe, who smiled brightly at the old woman, looked at Simon and gave instructions.
“I can see my hands, I can see them! “Can’t you do it any harder?”
“….”
“Don’t worry, Grandma. “We’ll even provide you with all the firewood needed for this winter!”
“Oh, thank you!”
‘Why am I more talented than you, but condescending…’
Simon grumbled internally, and Lethe sharply opened her eyes and asked a question.
“Then the person who left the basket containing the divine beast really couldn’t see even a speck of dust? I wish I knew at least a rough idea of how to make a good impression….”
“What’s the point of making a good impression?”
“The way you dress or the way your hair looks. “Like hair color!”
“I didn’t see it.”
The old woman looked worried.
“The same goes for other villagers. “Everyone must have left the village to prepare for the Mohang Festival.”
“That’s too bad.”
“Mmm.”
The old woman closed one eye, thought about it, and said.
“Well, if it were that guy, he might have seen it.”
“yes?”
“There is a nobleman who is not interested in Mohangje or anything else. “The weirdest of all weirdos must have been home at that time.”
Simone and Lethe’s gazes quickly crossed.
***
Simon and Lethe finished their work and headed straight to the place the old woman told them about.
An old and empty thatched house. The door was wide open and there was no one inside.
Maybe it was a hunter’s house, but the inside was full of by-products from all kinds of game. Next to it, the blood of a dead deer hanging upside down was being placed in a basket.
“Ugh.”
Lethe came inside cautiously, covering her nose as if she was unhappy. On the other hand, Simon, the necromancer, came in calmly as if it were his own home. Then my occupational disease kicked in and I started looking at the bones lying on the table.
“Why are you doing that?”
“hmm.”
Simon’s expression slightly froze.
“It seems like this hunter is not an ordinary person.”
“why?”
“There are human bones mixed in among the animal bones.”
Lethe’s shoulders trembled.
“He’s a murderer in another sense! “He must be arrested immediately!”
“I have to listen to the story first. Let’s sit down and wait.”
The two people sat down.
I didn’t know when the hunter would return, but since this was the one I came to, I had to wait.
“I will investigate this far and then go to the hospital room where Aetula is.”
Simon’s eyes widened at Lethe’s words.
“Is that okay? “They say they are denying people access.”
“But as the situation is the situation, we have to meet. “If you say you don’t like it, force it.”
Lethe’s expression became sharp.
“Aitula. “You must have seen something strange.”
***
Same time.
Epnel Infirmary.
“Aitula student! Aitula student! calm down!”
rattle.
Rattling.
Number 8, Aitula, dressed in a hospital gown, was squatting down, hugging her knees and leaning against the wall.
“I won’t tell you. Please help me, please help me, please save me…!”
In the end, the priests in the infirmary who failed to communicate shook their heads and left.
And on the body of Aetula, who was left alone and shivering, there was an abnormally large palm print.
