Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits - Chapter 195
[ Episode 195. To the mansion]
As soon as the weekend came, we headed straight to the Welton manor.
Even if it wasn’t Noah’s business, I should have stopped by once anyway because I heard the news of the sudden crowd of customers, but things became a little complicated.
“Come to think of it, this is the first time I’m bringing a friend home.”
Next to me were Noah, Vivian and Ivy now.
And in the cold atmosphere created by Noah and Ivy, Vivian and I were talking alone.
“You said you had a sister.”
“yes. My name is Amy. He is 19 years old this year and is 4 years older than me.”
“4 years old?”
Vivian tilted her head.
“Adrias is 23 now?”
“yes.”
“why?”
The time to enter Rodlenn was not set, but the minimum was 18 years old.
Most of the current graduating class are 22 years old, since everyone enters at the right age if possible.
It’s like I entered school a year late.
“I entered school a year late. Actually, I had no intention of coming to the academy.”
“I’m glad I entered the school even later.”
“Yes, I think so too.”
Then Ivy, who had been quietly listening, intervened.
“You two are in your senior year, have you decided what you will do after graduation?”
“well.”
The words were ambiguous, but I actually had something in mind.
I don’t know if it’ll be exactly what I want, but at least I’ll be able to create the seat itself.
Because now I was a top-notch talent who would send love calls anywhere.
Hearing my ambiguous answer, Ivy turned her head to look at Vivian, and she responded immediately.
“I will become a knight.”
“Hmm? Are you sure?”
Ivy’s thoughts coincided with mine.
Is Vivian a knight?
Of course, in terms of skills, she was already more than enough to eat at the level of active knights, but it was questionable whether she would be able to handle the life of the knights well because she was not good at interpersonal relationships.
“Do you have a place in mind?”
“huh.”
“where?”
“……secret.”
Vivian shyly lowered her head and muttered.
Make sure to keep it a secret so you won’t come out later.
coping well
“Well, for you, the behind-the-scenes work must have already been completed. Is Daewoo a good place?”
“huh. very.”
“Oh yeah? So, are you going back to your family?”
“That’s not right.”
Since Ivy doesn’t know Vivian’s tangled anecdotes, she must be able to ask like that.
And to be honest, it would be much better to join a famous order of knights in the empire than a family knight.
It is true that the famous knights of the empire are better than the knights of a single family in a kingdom on the outskirts.
“And I haven’t gotten permission yet.”
“what? You’re as good as you are, but you didn’t give me permission?”
“I didn’t even ask.”
“Oh is that so? Then it will be fine. who rejects you From my point of view, you can join anywhere as long as you have your skills.”
While we were talking, the train arrived at Welton Manor before we knew it.
Ivy was a little cautious as she was with her, but she wasn’t too worried.
As they are already openly engaged in outside activities, if Ivy had to reveal their true identity, they should have been caught right away.
“It is small.”
Noah looked around and said quietly.
As she said, the Welton estate was a small country estate, so there was nothing special about it.
We grabbed the wagon and headed for my mansion.
“Noah needs to stay for a while for treatment, but how long are you going to stay, Assistant Ivy?”
“well. why? uncomfortable?”
“no. I asked because Vivian and I had to go back right after a weekend away.”
“I wrote the annual leave for now.”
“Has confirmed.”
I’ll have to keep my mouth shut tight.
The mansion that finally arrived was much wider than before.
Upon entering, I inquired about the surrounding area, and it seemed that the land had been increased by purchasing more land in the surrounding area.
He must have had enough money right now to pay the war tax.
“welcome.”
Amy, who had contacted me in advance and knew I was coming, welcomed me.
She made eye contact with each one of them and smiled sinisterly at me.
“Are you doing something?”
“what?”
After saying something incomprehensible, Amy bowed her head cautiously.
“My name is Amy Cromwell, sister of Adrias Cromwell. nice to meet you.”
“Ivy Claire. This is an acquaintance of mine who is an assistant professor at Rodlen Academy. Nice to meet you, ma’am.”
Ivy, who has a good personality, came out first and was greeted, while Noah just stood there blankly.
Then Vivian procrastinated and lowered her head.
“Vivian Velocan. Adrias friend…….”
“Everyone is welcome. I’ll show you to your room first, so let’s unpack.”
Amy stepped forward and guided the guests.
In the meantime, I sneaked out and found Salem.
“oh.”
However, the first one he encountered was a woman who appeared to be Isabelle.
“Are you here?”
“Isabelle. You have arrived safely.”
Are there no citizens?
Isabel, who took notice as she glanced around, spoke first.
“I am not leaving now. When I heard that Adrias was coming, I just said hello and left, so I just left.”
“Are there any inconveniences in your stay?”
“yes. Rather, I heard fun these days as I helped with the work of the upper division. Thanks to you, I am having fun every day.”
“Please take good care of my little sister.”
“Of course. Are we on the same boat now?”
Hearing that story from Isabelle’s mouth makes me feel it.
Maximin Maximin and Isabelle are both on the same side as me.
But I couldn’t be careless.
The future scenario bosses were lined with monsters that could not be defeated with just one Auror Master.
If that was possible, the game itself would not have been recommended for party play in the first place.
After parting with Isabelle, he heard of Salem’s location and immediately arrived at his place.
It was his own alcove in a corner of the mansion, and there were also people he was glad to see.
“friend!”
A blurry girl who looked like Luna exclaimed happily.
Along with him, Morne let out an easygoing laugh.
“haha. did you come You have suffered a lot.”
“long time no see.”
Looking at it like this, I thought that only the people gathered in our mansion would be on a par with most ducal families.
Considering the power of the imperial ducal family, it is truly insane.
“Are you here?”
Just then, Salem walked out from the inside.
I nodded slightly and said to him.
“I sent a letter the other day, but I brought it back before I got an answer.”
“You were subjected to a biological experiment? I’ve already gotten used to your attitude of bringing a troublesome problem and telling me to get rid of it. So where is he?”
“I will bring you now.”
The reason I dared to show it to Salem was because of ‘harmony’.
I wondered if Salem, who had been studying harmony for a long time, would be able to fix Noah’s imbalance, and I wondered if it would be helpful to Salem himself.
“Instead, you can’t reveal your identity.”
“I’ll figure it out, man. Cheeky.”
I returned to the main building with Luna smiling awkwardly and following me.
I wanted to see the equipment that should have arrived from the majang, but I’ll have to solve it first with Noah.
“friend.”
“Yes Luna.”
“Call me Naru here! Naru!”
“Yes, Naru.”
“Did you hear about the meeting?”
assembly?
I didn’t hear anything, so I stopped for a moment while walking towards the main building.
There was no one around at the time, so I asked her.
“What news are you talking about?”
“Rage is our turn.”
“ah.”
There was anger that I didn’t care about.
It’s true that it was already in the hands of the assembly, so I put it aside for a while.
“What would you like me to do?”
To tell you the truth, I’d love to turn my anger back to the North, but I know I can’t.
Too many things have already been woven together, so simply handing them over again does not end the work.
Besides, just because anger goes over again doesn’t mean it doesn’t cease to be anger.
It is the fate of the child born of anger.
‘fate.’
However, I would like to escape that fate a little bit if possible.
It’s also something that suits my interests.
“Do you know when exactly?”
“The meeting is busy right now. It’s not us, but the other kids are busy playing with war!”
As expected, the Northern War was also intertwined with rallies.
They must be trying to profit from the chaos somehow.
“So maybe it will come when the war is over?”
“That’s too late. Do you know where he is now?”
“Ugh. Maybe Aika Imp?”
“Are you sure it’s that witch?”
My back hurt a little bit.
To turn the tide in the middle of a war, it’s best to have fury in our hands, but of course Aika Imp has it.
I had only met him once before, but in many ways he was a reluctant person.
An opponent whose strength is of course unknown and what is plotting behind the scenes.
If you don’t, you can harm the people around you.
“Do you want to have anger?”
“I think I can create a useful situation if I have it during the war.”
“I’ll bring them.”
Luna said casually, as if she were taking out candy from her pocket.
No matter how Luna is, I wondered if she was thinking too lightly, but honestly, I’m not sure.
Although her words and actions seem a little lacking, she is definitely a warlock class black magician.
He was a wizard of a level that ordinary people could not even dream of.
“It is dangerous.”
“I won’t do it alone!”
When I see her talking with a smile, five-colored eyes come to mind.
I tried to trust her a little bit, so I gave her a warning.
“I don’t have the authority to stop Luna, but please don’t do anything that could endanger her. You are more important to me than anger.”
“huh!”
Did you really understand?
It confuses me.
Anyway, I’ll have to think about this a bit more.
There is no time right now, and a large-scale conscription will soon be made due to the complicated war situation.
Opportunities will arise out of that chaos.
“Noah.”
Arriving at the main building, I found a group of people being guided around the mansion.
I gestured to Noah among them and said.
“let’s go.”
“already?”
Ivy asked me with a slightly uneasy look.
On the condition that she accompany her to the mansion, Noah’s treatment process will not be shared.
Noah told her directly, so she wasn’t worried.
“We don’t have much time, so we have to do it quickly.”
“……okay.”
Ivy looked at Noah with a worried look, but Noah followed me without much reaction.
It’s like a mean boy.
“Hmm!”
Luna snorted to herself as she watched Noah approaching.
Then he nodded as if he knew something.
“Isn’t that the kid who is doing the treatment?”
Ivy, who was still watching with a doubtful expression, said.
“no.”
“I am not a kid!”
Leaving behind Luna, who was furious in an unexpected corner, she spoke to Vivian and Ivy.
“I’ll be back soon, so take a break.”
“huh.”
“I get it.”
The moment I was about to ask Amy, who was with me, to take care of me, leaving them behind, an employee with an urgent expression came running.
“Hey heck! Boss!”
“What happen?”
“ah! Sir Big Cromwell! Nice to meet you!”
The gibberish staff noticed my presence and waited for my reaction without even replying to Amy’s words.
“It seems urgent, but let’s talk first.”
When I said it, he raised his head and became restless.
“Ah, that’s…”
he hesitated between me and Amy, then told me.
“This is breaking news. They say Wailing Gorge has fallen into enemy hands!”
“Wailing Gorge?”
It was Ivy who asked the question.
And soon the atmosphere turned cold.
“for a moment. Could it be that the Valley of Wailing that I know of?”
“The fortress called the last bastion in the north is right! From what I just heard, not a single one has survived.”
“Nonsense!”
Ivy shouted and Amy looked at him in disbelief.
I told Amy because I had already expected it.
“Amy, did you prepare anything in advance?”
“Huh? preparation?”
Confused for a moment, she soon realized the meaning of preparation and hardened her expression.
In the meantime, there was a meaning here that I had to prepare for war more intensely than in other places.
Now Cromwell’s top will bloom wings.
“I was told to do it, but… did you really expect it?”
“No way.”
I said that and turned around.
“I trust you will handle it well. Then I’ll just go. Let’s go Noah.”
“No, that’s the problem now…”
Ivy paused.
War is important as it is your brother’s work, but this side’s work is also important.
Now, with the fall of this fortress, the continent will gradually fall into a whirlwind of chaos.
This is just an outpost.
It’s not surprising compared to the doomsday scenario that’s about to happen.
‘I just need to come to my senses from now on.’
Even to protect everyone.
I won’t be upset.
