Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 974:
Outskirts of Sky Island.
A stable in a small deserted rural village. Lisa, who had come into hiding in this empty place, was squatting on a pile of straw.
Shootaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr by bye bye
raining. The sky gets cloudy and it starts to rain. Water drops drip from the old, holey ceiling.
The falling water droplets wet my head and even wet the straw pile on the floor. The ground became muddy and soggy, and Afnel’s white school uniform immediately became visibly dirty.
Although the environment was harsh, she did not move.
His eyes were half unfocused, as if he wasn’t even thinking about avoiding the rain.
‘It’s me.’
She lowered her head.
‘It’s not like I wanted to be like that.’
When you become a monster, you lose your mind and can’t do anything, but after you return to your original state, all your memories come back clearly.
Destroyed the city.
attacked people.
-That’s the devil!
The residents fled in fear.
Paladins attacked with weapons and shackles.
Lisa cut off her thoughts and buried her face between her knees.
A rumbling sound of thunder was heard and the rain fell even harder.
Sigh.
She moved her hand. There was a kitchen knife stolen from the kitchen.
Actually, I tried it once.
However, the moment he tried to stab himself with a knife, his emotions became strong and he turned into a devil.
The devil didn’t even let him die quietly.
This was a curse.
-Lisa is amazing. He is the treasure of our clan.
-Are only saints in high places saints? Lisa is our pride and the saintess of Priespellman!
When the villagers said so.
In fact, as Simon said before, he did not deny it.
-It’s embarrassing, but if you believe that, I’ll work harder!
Actually, I said that.
So, I received heavenly punishment.
I heard that the saint’s power is all great and holy, but why did she end up being transformed into a cursed body?
I couldn’t help but think it was a curse from the goddess.
There was no way even the Holy Federation could understand such a saint. Everything will end only when he is executed.
‘What should I do from now on…’
Crash!
Suddenly the stable door opened wide.
Lisara was startled and covered her mouth.
Chabak. Chabak.
Soon, a man in a robe walked through muddy water. Lisara stepped back and pressed herself against the wall.
“Are you here? “Lisa.”
A familiar voice rings out.
‘How do I know I’m here?’
She froze.
Soon Simon found Lisa and took off the hood that was blocking the rain, revealing his face.
Rumbling!
The surrounding area turns white from the striking lightning and then returns.
“U… Clid.”
Her pupils flutter.
“…No, it wasn’t Euclid, it was the investigator. “You came to kill me.”
“It’s the opposite.”
Simon answered in a calm voice and opened his palm.
“I came to save you, Lisa.”
I’ve seen that before.
He threatened and tried to kill me with that face and those hands.
I know it’s someone else, but I feel intimidated. When Simone held out her hand, her body reflexively flinched.
Sssssssss!
An unusual energy began to flow from her body.
‘!’
And at this moment, Simon felt the surroundings turn white and the image of the sacred constellation appeared vaguely and then disappeared.
Lisara is trying to use the power of a saint.
“ruler. wait for a sec. Lisa! “You can’t change here!”
As Simon raised his voice, Lisa became even more frightened and her body trembled like an aspen tree.
It’s counterproductive. The power of the saint was growing stronger in her body.
“Hey, get out of the way.”
Then a new voice intervened.
The person who entered the stable was a woman with flowing snow-white hair. Lisara’s mouth opened.
‘Lethe… Saint?’
“They asked me to trust them and leave it to them, but what is this? “You were scared.”
“Oh no. “I haven’t been able to say it properly yet…”
Simon said as if he felt unfair. Lethe smiled mischievously and raised her index finger to press Simon’s cheek.
“If you say it with a face like this, is there any way it can work? “It would be difficult to think of it as just your usual show-off.”
Simon looked dissatisfied, and Lethe snorted and approached Lisara.
“Sister.”
Her expression suddenly turned serious.
“The power you have is not like a curse. “You are definitely a saint.”
“….”
Lisara lowered her head.
“But Saint Lethe has also seen how I have changed. Even the paladins call me a devil…”
“They just want to believe you are a devil. “Because their goal is to eliminate you in the first place.”
Lethe shook her head and looked at Lisara again.
“Don’t be swayed by lies. What matters is the truth that you are a saint. No matter what anyone says, you were chosen by the great goddess.”
“….”
“Actually, I really like something, right? I am the youngest among the saints. “When the saints get together, they have a hard time trying to accommodate the difficult-tempered older sisters, but now the youngest is escaping?”
“How dare someone like me…”
Lethe took a step closer.
Immediately, she grabbed hold of her school uniform skirt and slowly knelt in the muddy water of the stable. omg! Lisara, who was appalled and making noises, came up to me in a huff and knelt down across from me.
“Stand, stand, saint! It’s dirty over there…!”
“When you’re having a hard time and suffering, selected students have the right to seek help, right?”
Lethe smiled, spreading her palms.
“Excellent achievement. “Can you please ask me again?”
At those words, Lisara’s pupils shook violently, and soon large and small teardrops began to form in the corners of her eyes. Immediately, he grabbed Lethe’s hand with a trembling hand, and as if that wasn’t enough, he rushed over and hugged her tightly.
“Saint!”
A cry like a wail erupted. Lethe smiled softly and patted Lisara’s back.
Simon, who sighed in relief, came up from behind and spoke quietly.
“Good job Lethe.”
Lethe also responded by nodding.
“But what do you mean when you ask for ‘one more time’ an honorable mention? Have you ever received Lisara’s Excellence Award before? Why don’t you tell me…”
Jerrit!
Suddenly, Lethe glared at Simon with murderous eyes.
Simon, feeling imminent, paused.
“Don’t ask.”
“Uh huh.”
I don’t know why I’m so angry.
Anyway, while Lethe was comforting Lisara, Simon passed by and looked at the situation outside through a gap in the shabby stable.
‘this.’
Several lantern lights were visible in the distance.
The pursuers sent by the bishop were chasing after him. The sound of a dog barking follows.
“Lethe’s pursuers have arrived. “It’s dangerous here.”
“Let’s move places.”
Lethe lifted Lisa up and hugged her.
“I have a trustworthy helper.”
***
Heading to the helper that Lethe had mentioned, Simon heard the whole story from Lisara.
As expected, the assassin who received instructions from superiors and moved to eliminate the saint was Euclid.
At the time, Lisa was having a hard time suppressing her suddenly violent energy. I tried desperately because I didn’t want my classmates to see the horrible sight that appeared after a reckless binge.
At this time, I also heard the voice of the ‘essence of a saint’ named Lisa. It revealed that she was a saint, but Lisara herself denied it at first. I didn’t think I was capable of doing that, and most of all, all seven saints were alive.
The second day I arrived at Sky Island.
The selected students gathered together in the dormitory and talked together for the first time. At that time, Euclid suddenly brought up a story that had nothing to do with the topic of conversation.
-If a saint suddenly dies, who will be the next saint? I think it’s one of us here.
-Oh, you know what? It is said that when you first receive the power of a saint, you cannot control your power and end up breaking things or smashing windows.
Euclid persistently changed the topic to the story of the saint.
Meryl scolded her, saying, ‘Why is a boy so interested in being promoted to sainthood?’, but Lisara was annoyed. There were times when I would break out in a cold sweat, shake with anxiety, and almost turn into a monster.
After the precarious meal, the selected students dispersed and returned to their dorm rooms one by one.
On the way back to her room, Lisa felt her vision spinning. I felt nauseous and my body felt weak.
Did I eat the wrong food that went bad? Is just one sip of wine the problem? In any case, it seemed like he wouldn’t even be able to get to his room on the top floor at this rate. She wanted to avoid falling down in the hallway and being taken to the hospital, so she went into a nearby empty room and lay down on the bed. Anyway, it didn’t matter because the entire maewon was occupied by selected students.
however.
-Woke up?
When I opened my eyes, there was a man in the room.
The person who smiled was number 10 Euclid. He was doing something in the room, waving his hands as if concentrating.
-It took two hours to deploy the soundproof barrier. It was a bit difficult, but it doesn’t matter.
After completing the barrier work, he approached Lisara.
Lisara was scared and tried to move, but her body was frozen in the same position she was lying on the bed. My body was as heavy as a piece of iron, and my limbs were numb. I couldn’t speak or scream.
-You can’t move, right? The water you drank was drugged.
He dragged a chair over and sat down.
-You look like you’re asking why you’re doing this to me. I know that? The saintess of Shinmo is dead.
Lisara’s heart raced.
The saint died?
So, is it really like the voice said, that I am the next saint?
-And I am looking for the next saint according to the instructions above. According to information, it seems that one of the selected students is a saint. Among the male members who had no chance of becoming a saint, I was the one with the least experience of bad things, so the job came to me.
He hummed leisurely and looked around. Then he suddenly stuck his head out and said.
-You are a saint, right? Lisa.
My heart was beating like crazy. Cold sweat poured down my face. She desperately moved her head, which was not moving well, and shook it from side to side.
Jing Jing Jing—
At that time, something like a decoration on the wall that I had never seen before was shaking. Among the 10 small rings, one shook particularly strongly. Euclid laughed and clapped his hands.
-Thank you Lisa. I’m so glad that an empty-headed idiot like you is a saint.
-…!
– Above, I told you to focus on observing No. 1 Meryl and No. 4 Bersey since they seem to be saints.
He grabbed the ninth ring and clenched his fist.
-The allowable ones are 1 and 4. Other than that, if it was confirmed that the other children were saints, they were told to kill them preemptively by any means possible. They say everything will be taken care of from above. The compensation is also given 10 times more.
Euclid placed his hand on his chin.
-I kept thinking. How can I find a saint? Then I thought about it like this. What would it be like if I were in the saint’s shoes? You must have been scared and nervous. Because you want to avoid the ‘murder of a saint’. Even an empty-headed bastard like you has heard of the murder of a saint, right?
He snapped his fingers.
-From the beginning, it didn’t seem like Meryl or Bercy were proud because they appeared proudly. I kept looking around and thought I would find a guy who reacted uneasily every time I brought up the story of the saint. That was correct! In particular, you were the only one who flinched, your eyes rolled around randomly, you couldn’t control your facial expressions, and it was clearly visible that you were anxious.
He smiled broadly.
-Because I can’t even perform such basic acting, I get caught and die like this. Be a little more careful next time? Oh, there will be no next time.
Gradually.
He lifted a crossbow from under the bed. Lisara made noises and shook her body, but could not move.
Euclid took a few steps back to avoid blood spatter and aimed the crossbow at Lisara’s forehead.
-thank you. Thanks to you, I will enjoy eternal money and power.
-town! Ugh!
-bye. If you have a next life, don’t get caught.
Teong.
The crossbow is released and arrows fly out.
To Lisara, it seemed very slow.
And right after it pierced his forehead, all memories were cut off.
“…When I opened my eyes, I was in a sea of blood.”
Lisara lowered her head.
“Euclid was torn to pieces and dead, and there were pieces of flesh all over my hands. “I saw my blood-soaked image reflected in the mirror.”
Simon and Lethe listened quietly, forgetting what to say.
“After clearing up the crime scene, I ran away and entered the room. The next day, a coercive investigation began and I hid even more. Oh, if you get caught, you’ll die. “If it is discovered that I am a saint, I will be killed.”
She put her hands together.
“So I took the dead Euclid’s advice to heart.”
-You were the only one who twitched, your eyes rolled around randomly, you couldn’t manage your facial expressions, and it was clearly visible that you were anxious.
-Be a little more careful next time? Oh, there will be no next time.
“I desperately killed my heart. As I tried to remain as calm as possible, the frequency of turning into a monster decreased. It was then that I realized that when my emotions were shaken, the power of a saint came out and I became a monster. Then on the first day of the rookie worship service.”
She looked at Simon.
“The moment Euclid reappeared, I felt a fear that took my breath away. But even more so, I erased myself and pretended like nothing was wrong. “Because I had to live.”
‘So that’s what happened.’
Now many mysteries have been solved.
It was understandable that there was no reaction at the first impact moment when the face was revealed.
Lisara was already at a point where her mind was being poisoned.
“It must have been difficult.”
Simon said with a complicated smile.
“I didn’t mean to, but I’m sorry I felt like I threatened you for no reason.”
“Investigator Su…!”
While Lisara looked thrilled, Lethe stabbed Simon in the side.
“Are you going to keep speaking informally like that even after finding out that Lisara is a saint?”
“ah!”
Simon was startled and lowered his head.
“I’m so sorry, Saint Lisa.”
“Don’t do that!”
Lisara suddenly screamed. Simon and Lethe flinched and looked back at her.
“It’s better if you just call me Lisa as you normally would. And…”
“?”
She turned her head with a wide face.
“It seems like Saint Lerete and the investigator are friendly in private.”
“OK got it.”
Simon answered in a soft voice.
Lethe glared at Simon once, then turned her head with a small sigh.
“Anyway, that’s it for the small talk. “Let’s postpone what we want to say for a moment. We have arrived.”
The two people raised their heads at Lethe’s words.
I saw a mansion with a huge garden. And the helper that Lethe had mentioned came out to meet us, holding an umbrella.
“Gratula mi kibilis. Welcome, saint.”
Everyone’s eyes widened when they saw the helper.
“you are…!”
