The Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 1037
strategy meeting has begun.
Hector, a member of the Department of Firearms, Fitzgerald, who is good at tactical strategy, and Guinevere and Cendra, model students who had excellent grades and were the leaders of the summoning department.
Here Simon was walking to join us.
“Wouldn’t it be a good idea to investigate the south as well?”
“You haven’t even figured out a plan yet. “There is no need to unreasonably expand the scope of the investigation.”
Meanwhile, it was a bit amusing to see everyone except Hector talking seriously while wearing swimsuits with a map spread out.
“There you are, Simon. “I waited.”
Fitzgerald pushed up his glasses and pretended to know. Guinevere also welcomed him warmly, and Chendra seemed to be paying attention to the fact that he was the commander of a treacherous army, but just nodded with a slightly stiff face.
“late.”
Hector blurted out this without paying attention, and when Simon came, he got straight to the point.
“There is not much time given to us. If you want to move quickly starting tomorrow, you need to make a concrete plan in advance. According to information from Keygen headquarters, the areas requiring investigation are as follows.”
The first is Choseungseom Island.
Five days later, this is the core area where Behemoths flock to spawn. If the organization is planning something, Choseung Island is bound to be the most likely location.
The second is ‘Orzava’, the closest city to Chosung Island.
In addition to the distance factor of being a coastal city close to Choseung Island, this city has more supplies than the empty Choseung Island, is more convenient for transporting equipment and weapons, and is also good for hiding among people and hiding one’s identity. If the organization was planning something, there was a high possibility that they would prepare their plan from here.
And the third is 16 small islands near Choseungseom Island.
Although it is not that large compared to Choseung Island, the Behemoths pass through these small islands and enter Choseung Island. Since you never know what plans the organization may have, it was well worth investigating in advance.
“We split into teams and search three areas simultaneously.”
Hector spread his fingers and continued.
“Headquarters said it was an ‘investigation mission,’ but this was a large-scale mission involving 40 third-year students from Keygen. “I think it’s right for us to resolve it without having to hand it over to others.”
“of course.”
“I agree.”
Fitzgerald and Chendra nodded.
Hector clenched his fists, flexing his facial muscles violently.
“If anyone discovers a conspiracy, report it. “I will fly to any location within 10 minutes and trample them like bugs.”
“It’s reassuring that the Moore family is on the same side.”
Guinevere said that with a smile.
At that moment, Fitzgerald raised his glasses.
“But starting tomorrow, Professor Aaron’s Behemoth class will also be held. What are you going to do with the kids going to nearby cities? “If you can’t take an important class, you’ll be very dissatisfied.”
“There is a way to do that.”
When Simon opened his mouth, everyone’s eyes focused on him.
“Professor Aaron, you said that you are not involved in the mission, but that you can schedule classes at any time, right? How about swapping missions between the Chosung Island team and the city team starting on the third day? “You just need to clearly share the details of your investigation.”
This time everyone agreed.
Originally, there had to be more individual competition to achieve merit, but this was a ‘group mission’ entrusted by the headquarters to the third-year summons department. Since an individual’s performance is also everyone’s performance, there was no problem as long as information was shared.
Hector opened his mouth.
“In that case, we will form a total of 10 teams with 4 people per group. Considering the scope of the survey site, we divided into four Choseung Island survey teams, four city survey teams, and two offshore island survey teams.”
“Why don’t we continue with the team we used to be in the second year, when we were always together?”
This time, Cendra proposed, spreading her palm.
“We’ll work together, share black magic information, and plan positions. When will we do it all?” “It’s the beginning of the semester, so let’s focus on the existing team this time.”
Everyone readily agreed.
In addition, specific instructions, mission systems, and code words were provided without any obstruction. As expected, unlike when I was in the lower grades, once I was in my third year of Keygen, I was a veteran, so everything was easy. There was no need for much words or explanation. As soon as a story was brought up, new opinions quickly joined in, completing the overall framework, and pointing out errors was also quick.
A large plan was completed in an instant.
“Everyone gather together!”
After all the planning was completed, Hector called everyone who was playing in the water in a loud voice.
Students also had fun when playing, but gathered together without saying a word, as if they knew what they had to do when working.
Soon, the contents decided at the meeting were told, and the Choseung Island investigation team, the city investigation team, and the offshore island investigation team were randomly selected.
Simon’s Team 10, which included Lorraine, Toto, and Eshu, was selected as the Chosung Island investigation team.
Guinevere licked her lips and crossed her arms.
“It seems a bit of a waste to leave the Summoning Department’s best forces on Chosung Island.”
The male student next to me shrugged his shoulders and accepted the comment.
“What do you think? It is true that the investigation of Choseung Island is the most important, and the investigation team of Choseung Island and the city investigation team will be swapped in two days, so I think it is okay.”
Currently, Simon’s group was the only group in the Summoning Department whose group members did not change.
Simon, the student council president and commander of the 7th Corps, Lorraine, the future president of Kizen, Eshu, a rare summoner who controls cursed dolls, and Toto, who possesses the Berserker Death Knight.
In fact, it was one of the main forces of the Summoning Department.
“By the way, the Choseung Island investigation team, including me, has one important mission.”
When Simon, the student council president, came forward and spoke, everyone’s attention was focused.
Simon glanced at Hector out of courtesy, and Hector nodded indifferently.
Soon Simon opened his mouth.
“We need to reach the native people of this island.”
“!”
Simon carefully read books about Behemoth and Chowseung Island and found out that there were indigenous people living on Chowseung Island.
The students murmured at Simon’s words.
“Native?”
“People live on an island like this? “No, when Behemoth is coming, can people survive?”
Eshu gently brushed my forearm.
“I got goosebumps. “For some reason, I thought I kept feeling eyes on me from behind while I was swimming.”
“Isn’t that just the gaze of boys?”
“no! “It was a very creepy look!”
While opinions were divided among the students, the teaching assistant brought a manager who was waiting at the villa.
“Can I tell you the story of the indigenous people who live on this island?”
“Yes, please. Manager.”
The manager started talking with a slightly stern expression.
The indigenous people of Choseung Island, who are treated as unknown legends even in the neutral zone here, are said to have lived on Choseung Island for a very long time.
It is said that they live a completely closed life, completely disconnected from civilization, and are extremely wary when outsiders enter their territory. The rangers especially advised people not to go deep into the forest of Choseung Island.
It is known that the number of natives is not very large, and that is why it is said that many die every year during the Behemoth spawning season. Common sense would suggest that they could take refuge on another island or inland only during the Behemoth spawning season and return after the Behemoth retreats, but they did not do that. He strictly insisted on island life.
“I have witnessed with my own eyes a small number of things that I have witnessed while working here.”
The manager hesitated and said.
“Modern people have a very distorted way of thinking that they don’t understand. According to eyewitnesses, some people throw themselves into the Behemoth’s open mouth…” “
!”
The surprised students raised their eyebrows.
“At one time, many people disappeared while trying to meet those mysterious natives. Among them, there was a necromancer who was one of the most skilled of the time.”
He shook his head.
“Not all of them came back alive.”
The natives were not yet civilized, but there seemed to be something mysterious protecting their bodies.
Whether it is a weapon, magic, or a person, its identity is unknown. However, it is said that even in this world, a certified 4th rank necromancer, evaluated as a Kizen graduate, entered the island and was found dead tied to a wooden pillar. The damage to the body was said to be quite serious.
“I don’t know why you’re here, but I recommend you never go near them.”
“I heard the explanation well.”
Hector coldly interrupted and gestured. The assistant took the manager with him.
This time Hector stood up.
“Rumors are bound to be exaggerated. “I don’t think there’s anyone here who would be scared by a story like that, but we have to use any means possible to find out what these bastards are planning.”
Simon spoke next.
“If they have been living here all along, they might know or have seen the whereabouts of the group. There is no need to engage. “Our purpose is information about the organization they may know.”
“But what if the natives don’t cooperate with providing information?”
Hector and Simon answered a student’s question at the same time.
“Force them to cooperate!”
“We will have to use various conciliation measures.”
This time, the two people with different opinions looked at each other. Hector immediately growled, and Simon grinned.
The classmates who saw this burst into laughter.
“The captains say different things, so let’s do what we can.”
Guinevere smiled and shrugged.
“hey! Simon Pollentia! “Doesn’t the department respect what the department says?”
A student from the Hector faction said something.
“One way or another, the student council president is higher.”
Next to him, a student who liked Simon also said something. Of course, it wasn’t a serious fight, and everyone’s words were playful.
The point at which we cooperate with one goal in mind: to create a Behemoth.
The overall atmosphere in the Summoning Department was good.

The next morning.
In the morning, we all took Aaron’s class together.
In addition to the theory of Behemoth production that I could not finish in school, I also received a lecture on basic hunting methods and weaknesses from a Behemoth hunting expert.
“I’m also a Behemoth hunter, but I retired a long time ago. In fact, there is no hunting group on this continent that can be said to specialize in Behemoths.”
“Why is that?”
In response to a student’s question, the old hunter smiled bitterly and said,
“Because it didn’t survive. “They were all eaten and killed.”
Although a long time has passed, Behemoth was such a dangerous and vicious monster that the specialized knowledge of hunting Behemoth itself has not been properly inherited. Among monsters with established haunts and travel routes, there were few monsters that were so difficult for humans to hunt.
Of course, Aaron was calm.
“There is no need to be afraid from the beginning. And what we should be targeting is not a fully grown Behemoth, but a Behemoth that is close to the semi-adult stage.”
Aaron unfolded the picture of Behemoth and said.
“The size of the summoning magic circle is limited. Trying to catch a Behemoth that is too large is not only ineffective, but it is also difficult to move its heavy body properly. There is no need to aim for the Eucharist.”
“yes!”
It was not a very comforting story, but the students nodded with effort.
After the first class on Choseung Island, the students moved quickly.
-The city search team gets on the boat!
– Let’s go right away!
Teams that had to leave the island took a boat with a cloaking spell and moved to a city or small island. And the team in charge of searching Choseung Island immediately packed their bags and prepared to leave.
“Let’s assume we’ll be back by evening.”
“huh!”
There may be a group hiding on this island. Since the scope of the search was most important, I decided to conduct a personal search. All the students decided to disperse and search the entire island.
‘Is it this way?’
And Simon was walking inside the deepest forest on Choseung Island.
Huge teeth marks and scars left on the island are visible here and there. It was eerie to think that this place was a remnant of Behemoth’s stay on the island.
‘What’s more important now are the indigenous people living here. It must not have been a coincidence that I caught a 4th rank necromancer, and there must be something beyond the selfishness of civilization.’
-Kiririk!
At that time, a corpse spider waddled over to Simon.
Simon nodded, apparently having discovered the natives.
“Okay, I’ll go there right away.”
* * *
Jeopuk.
Jerk.
A place with skeletons everywhere.
Percussion.
The skull kicked by the foot rolls around and hits the skull on the other side. In a sea of countless corpses, a man slowly sits down on top of them.
space of death.
The surroundings will be red, like the inside of the stomach of some monster. Although he was shaking, the man did not shake at all.
Crackling!
At that time, the communication crystal ball vibrated. The man slowly grabbed it.
“What’s going on?”
Soon a faint voice rang out.
-Kizen sniffed. I’m going to that island.
Kick.
The man raised the corner of his mouth and lightly snapped his fingers. With a loud noise, the red surrounding area exploded, revealing a clear sky.
He said, baring his teeth.
“Are you finally here, Simon Pollentia?”
