Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Episode 985
“One month from now, I will announce to the world that you are the corps commander.”
Simon, Richard, and Anna’s mouths opened. Richard jumped up.
“Nephthys, that’s…!”
“You know what I mean, right?”
Nephthys smiled brightly.
“Starting from the third year, you will go to school as a corps commander, Simon!”
My body and thoughts froze.
Starting next month, people across the continent will know that I am a corps commander?
And you get to go to school as a corps commander?
‘Of course, I asked Nephthys for a favor, but…’ When
I actually heard it, it felt a little sudden.
Nephthys, who was patting her swollen belly, laughed out loud.
“Why is it so sudden?”
“Just a little bit.”
“I’m saying that because everything is ready!”
Nephthys spread her arms wide. The large white sleeves flapped.
“The result of consistent efforts to bring about change in public opinion! “Now more than 60% of people agree with the idea that we must accept the Legion of Betrayal.”
“…ah.”
“I don’t know anything else, but considering the tendency of the allies to not be tolerant of the ‘sin of betrayal,’ this is an unprecedented thing. “I think that building the image of ‘deadly opponent = 7th Legion’ worked well!”
Nephthys picked up the pumpkin pie and took a big bite. ‘Aww!’ He trembled and made a sound full of satisfaction.
“What are you kidding? Yum Yum! “Simon is now the official third-year student council president, so he has a strong supporter named Keygen, and more than anything, Magnus is dead.”
‘…Magnus.’
When I thought about it, it was true.
Magnus was one of the biggest reasons why he had kept the identity of the Betrayal Legion a secret from not only his classmates but also the student council members.
He was a radical terrorist who had no common sense and would use any means possible. In order to obtain Simon’s 7th Legion, he invaded Rock Island and even attempted to destroy Pentamonium.
Because he never wanted to involve his friends in the incident with Magnus, Simon obsessively hid his identity, but now his most dangerous enemy, Magnus, was gone.
“But you are too hasty, Nephthys. “Once you become a corps commander, you become a target for all necromancers.”
This time Richard stood up and spoke.
“You discussed it with me a few years ago. It was after he graduated that Simon revealed that he was the commander of the 7th Corps…”
“Things were different from those few years ago, Richard.”
Nephthys closed her eyes and rested her chin.
“The group has now emerged as the continent’s biggest enemy. “Now that the 7th Corps commander has emerged as a fierce opponent and icon, there is no better time than now to reveal his identity.”
“but…!”
“More than anything.”
Her eyes opened softly.
“The move to commit suicide is unusual. The fate of the continent will definitely be decided within this year. A situation so big that even the word catastrophe would not be enough will occur. At this time, the military power of the corps commander must play its role, and Simon’s role in integrating the 7th and 5th corps is especially important.”
“Nephthys~”
At that time, Anna intervened.
“There was a lot of sauce around my mouth.”
“Woop! Whoop!”
She carefully wiped Nephthys’ mouth with a wet towel. Nephthys nodded wildly and struggled as if she didn’t like it, but she couldn’t escape Anna’s meticulous touch.
“Anna! “My lips are sore!”
“Please be patient.”
He was the ruler of the Dark Alliance, but before he knew it, he had returned to being an abusive child. Simon, who was watching, let out a small laugh.
“Anyway!”
Nephthys rolled over into a ball on the sofa, grabbed the chocolate next to her, and ate it.
“I plan to reveal Simon’s identity to the continent and focus Keygen’s capabilities on the growth of the 7th Corps in the 3rd year course that will begin soon! Should we change classes appropriately? Jin Arskalt, commander of the 2nd Corps, summoned Jang Song-hak and promoted him from temporary professor to full professor and put him in charge of ‘Legion Studies’! Simon’s other Ancient Undead must also become stronger than they are now!”
Nephthys’ story seemed reasonable.
Corps commander curriculum added to the 3rd year course. This meant that the growth and performance of the 7th Corps was essential in the coming war.
Simon thought hard and then glanced at Richard. He had a very complicated expression. It was the same with Anna.
“I know. Richard Anna.”
Nephthys opened her mouth.
“Those of you who have saved the world many times in the past will know. How difficult and arduous the work will be in the future. “I understand that you don’t want to pass on that fate to your children.”
When she tilted her head, her silver hair fluttered lightly.
“But as the leader in charge of half the world, I have an obligation to use every means possible. “Of course, the opinions of the parties concerned are the most important.”
Her sparkling blue eyes turned to Simon.
“What do you think? Simon. If you refuse, I will follow the standard Keygen 3rd grade curriculum…”
“I will.”
Simon stood up.
“If there is a role for me in Nephthys’ plan, I will gladly accept it.”
“Simon!”
Simon turned his head and looked at Richard and Anna.
“Father, Mom. I will prevent this association and clear away the stigma of being a traitorous army. “That was my dream for a long time.”
Richard and Anna held each other’s hands tightly. Nephthys said, ‘Hmm! hmm!’ He nodded.
“Okay Simon! But just one thing. “There is a wall you have to overcome to reveal your identity to the world right now.”
“what is that?”
“Kingdom of Shahed.”
She puffed out her cheeks with a blank expression.
“If you reveal your identity, they will become your most painful and annoying enemies.”
Shahed Kingdom, one of the four major kingdoms of the Dark Alliance, was one of the countries directly affected by the Legion of Betrayal incident.
Although it did not take place in their territory, it was a war that would determine the fate of the Dark Alliance at the time, so many troops were dispatched and many talented people were lost in the incident. It is said that even the royal family was sacrificed.
In fact, when Nephthys announced the news that the ‘Legion of Betrayal has returned’, the other kingdoms that opposed the return of the 7th Legion issued a wanted order for the commander of the army, but Shahed went so far as to issue a ‘kill order’ to catch and kill him. It was.
There were quite a lot of necromancers belonging to them and of their nationality, so they could not be ignored.
“But right now we have a chance to change public opinion about Shahed.”
“what is that?”
As Simon asked with an expectant expression, Nephthys looked at Richard and Anna with puzzled eyes.
“You said you traveled the world, but you don’t know anything?”
“Ah yes! “My son loves traveling to remote areas!”
Richard says hehehe! I laughed and quickly covered it up. Nephthys nodded, ‘It doesn’t matter,’ and looked at Simon again.
“Can you believe that the king of a country was kidnapped?”
“yes?”
“Currently, the king and his wife of Shahed Kingdom are being held captive by a gang.”
***
As always, the kingdom’s royal family is very interested in local management.
In particular, Shahed’s history is marred by numerous rebellions. The period of centralization was shorter than that of other kingdoms, and the current king was also a local indigenous force who advanced to the center and became royalty.
Therefore, the monarchy calls local nobles to the center at the beginning of the year and makes a pilgrimage to the provinces directly at the end of the year. It is a political action aimed at keeping local forces in check and regaining influence in each region where the central influence has been weakened.
And now that the region was more noisy than ever due to the deadly crisis, the King of Shahed made a pilgrimage to the region with his queen and ministers.
I got stuck on my last schedule.
“The place where the incident occurred is a territory called ‘Bell Heights’!”
Nephthys continued speaking as she stuck documents to the wooden wall.
“It’s also the hometown of the King and Queen! As you can see, it is a fortress city built on a high rock wall, and has never been taken over by war in history! “It’s impregnable!”
“That’s interesting.”
Simon nodded and listened to the story.
“Right here!”
Nephthys posted the photo taken with the magic camera on the wall.
“Those presumed to be members of the Order have cast a strange spell on the entire territory.”
“ah!”
A gray wall stretched where the city should have been, on a high rock wall.
To be exact, rather than a wall, it looks like some kind of gloomy energy is enveloping this territory.
“It’s already been two weeks. No one knows what’s going on inside here. “Numerous necromancers of the Dark Alliance tried to find a way to get inside, but they all failed.”
Nephthys shook her head, holding her forehead.
Simon raised his hand.
“Have you ever used the ‘portal’ made with death-defying technology?”
“Ungh! But maybe because of that wall, the coordinates are distorted. “When I sent someone over, they came out in a different place!”
“hmm.”
Nephthys suddenly said that she had a headache and rushed to the kitchen. She brought out a cool sherbet for dessert and ate it with a spoon.
It was a mystery how that much food could fit into that small boat.
“This is the biggest incident committed by the organization since the murder of President Aland. If the king and his wife are killed or disappear like this, the Dark Alliance will fall into chaos. Now the eldest son, who remained in the royal capital, has now declared that I am the ‘King’, and the second son is even showing signs of revolt, saying that he cannot tolerate that. But-”
She looked at Simon and raised the corner of her mouth.
“If it’s the famous 7th Legion, there must be some way, right? “I heard they also use spatial technology.”
‘…You’re talking about the crossing of the military flag.’
Simon closed his eyes and thought deeply.
In reality, it is difficult to use interpolation over that wall.
Of course, there are other means in mind.
Simon, who had been thinking about it, opened his eyes.
“Yes, I think we can do something.”
hmm!
Nephthys also smiled brightly.
“Simon arrived late, so the deadline is not very long. 5 days!”
She spread out her five plump fingers.
“Because the Dark Coalition’s face is also about face, in five days, the coalition plans to launch a rather drastic method that does not care about the safety of the people inside. “I hope the 7th Corps can take care of it by then.”
“Please leave it to me.”
Simon jumped up.
“I will leave right away. “I will rally the army.”
“Yep! You’re going straight to Peer’s ruins, right? “I’ll prepare a teleportation magic circle.”
“….”
At that moment, Anna looked at Simon with bright eyes. Simon sat down again, sweating.
“…I’ll just eat lunch and leave.”
“Oh my~ I have to prepare dinner right away!”
“rice! “Me too!”
Nephthys raised her arms and followed Anna as she left for the kitchen.
***
I received a new mission directly from Nephthys, the head of the Dark Alliance.
None other than the rescue of King Shahed and his wife and the liberation of the Belle Heights estate.
As Nephthys said, it was a good opportunity to change the public opinion of Shahed, who regarded the 7th Legion commander as an enemy, but the fate of many people became unclear due to the assassination, so he could not just leave it alone.
Simon immediately returned to Rock Island using the teleportation magic circle prepared by Nephthys and headed straight to the ruins of Peer.
“Bear!”
[Hehehe! You came early, boy!]
After the 5th Legion joined, the ruins were bustling as always. Among them, Peer, wearing an intangible cloak, welcomed Simon.
“Everyone has a story to tell. “Could you please summon all the captains right now?”
[It’s not difficult, but what’s going on?]
“Now the 7th Legion-”
Simon raised the corner of his mouth.
“I think the moment has come to come out to the sun.”
Hahahahahaha!
Peer laughed out loud at those words and picked up the Great Sword of Destruction stuck on the floor.
[I’ll be back soon!]
“Please take care of me!”
Peer leaves.
[Alaze. Report exists.]
Alaze, an ancient undead member of the former 5th Legion who escaped from Simon’s subspace, opened his mouth.
[Control of Mur’s warship completed. Confirmation required by the corps commander.]
Simon turned his head.
“That’s ready?”
