Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 335
Two hours later the students who toured the castle and checked the materials and condition of the walls gathered in the conference room again.
It was a place prepared by the King for the Guardians.
“Has everyone gathered?”
Dick stepped forward and said. A female student who was counting herself answered her.
“No one has come yet.”
At those words Maylin glanced around and sighed lightly.
‘It’s always late he.’
The one missing was of course Simon.
“The Khan Kingdom will be attacking soon. We’re running out of time so let’s start first. Everyone one by one take turns explaining what we saw in the castle…”
“wait for a sec.”
Then a male student raised his hand. It was a male student who had shaved half of his hair and had thick eyebrows and thick lines throughout.
“My name is You. First of all it’s nice to be on the same team and I have one question.”
He glared at Dick.
“Why do you act like you’re supposed to be the captain?”
The other students nodded their heads in agreement. Maylin pursed her lips as she cupped her throbbing forehead.
‘I told you not to tell me!’
Dick quickly smiled and waved his hands.
“I don’t think of anything like a captain. Since the siege is the third round I have my own know-how so I’m going to play the role of a bookkeeper.”
“…Be sure to keep those words.”
Yoh jumped to his feet.
“I think it’s right to first pick a captain and establish a command system. And you said it was the 3rd round is there anyone here who isn’t experienced?”
“that’s right!”
“I’m on my third round too.”
A few students smirked.
Mei Lin who suddenly felt threatened looked at Fitzgerald in the seat next to her and asked.
“Are you experienced too?”
Fitzgerald raised his glasses.
“This is my second round.”
They say that those who have tasted the siege theme will continue to do it but most of them experienced it. It seemed that those who had tried finding the card on the wall and entering it did better.
‘Couldn’t Simon and I be the only beginners?’
Mei Lin was worried but the atmosphere in the conference room was already focused on Dick.
“And you Dick! Don’t you remember how you messed up the castle the other day? Didn’t you concentrate your troops to come to the north gate and you were in trouble!”
“that’s right!”
Dick didn’t change his face once and said ‘Uh-huh!’ I shouted.
“Everything is a big deal! What is one or two reasons for losing the war? All of you faces are familiar do you examine each one of your mistakes?”
“quiet!”
Yoh shouted in a loud voice.
As expected in the conference room the voice had to be loud and watch.
“There’s no time to fight over something like that so let’s pick the commander-in-chief first. What about the nameplate?”
“here.”
Dick set the plaque he had received from the King on the table.
This is the symbol of the ‘commander-in-chief’.
In Endolas’ game all crystal balls brought from outside become useless. However the person who wears this nameplate can communicate with all the guardians and gains the authority to lead the ‘whole army’.
“Without anything to say I want to be the commander-in-chief of this game.”
Saying that Yō brought his hand to the nameplate.
“If there is no meaning-“
“Where?”
sigh
A foot on the table pushed the nameplate aside.
“Are you trying to take it quietly?”
It was a long-haired male student who put his legs on the table. It has a typical snake-like face with wide space between the eyes and narrow eyes as if they were squinting.
“In the siege theme ‘the highest contributor’ is always chosen. In addition this game has Endorance’s generous gift but I can’t easily give up the position of commander-in-chief~ I’m Bweine.”
This time a hand burst through the table and took the nameplate.
“My name is Pengel.”
Soon a female student appeared through the table and sat down on the edge of the table.
“A commander’s virtue is his ability to survive. In the last game the Commander-in-Chief with command authority was quickly captured and the Mercury side got entangled. Of course it’s better for a necromancer aspirant to take it…”
“No. The commander’s virtue is judgment.”
When Fitzgerald appeared he picked up the nameplate from Pengel’s hand.
Pengel’s expression hardened. I couldn’t move because I was cursed.
“I am the Fitzgerald of class R. I am proud of my knowledge and judgment.”
“Who judges good judgment?”
This time Fitzgerald’s body stopped. His arms were frozen in ice.
He dropped the nameplate and Meilin who was holding it from below smiled as she brushed her light blue hair.
“Ranked 2nd in all schools in the practical evaluation. 10th in BMAT twice. There are no exceptions so people keep coming in but the commander-in-chief thinks it’s right for people with achievements to do it.”
Yō who had spoken first glared at her.
“Meylin Villenne. How many times have you experienced a siege?”
She put on a sullen expression then averted her eyes.
“…It’s the first time.”
“Look at this. Look at this.”
Yoh raised the corner of his mouth.
“Only the Commander-in-Chief can communicate with the other Guardians. I can’t give such an important position to ignorant kids.”
“Right!
“Ah! Let’s listen let’s listen so it’s true!”
Sparks flew in Meirin’s eyes as well.
“It’s not like I’ve done it a lot! Why are you so condescending because I’ve done it a few more times?”
“Experience is the most important~”
“You’re out of it! Snake man!”
“As expected I look like the most qualified person!”
“No it’s me!”
Hugs buzzes buzzes!
The meeting was turning into chaos as they fought each other for the position of commander-in-chief.
Dick who had been watching them turned around and took out a note and a quill. Then he started scrawling something.
< Hey the meeting is open. Show up hard hard. >
Then he took out the skeleton from the subspace and sent it outside. Everyone was so busy fighting that they didn’t care what Dick was doing.
thud!
Yoh shouted as he slammed the table with a furious face.
“Ah it’s frustrating! Then before the siege we’ll have a fight…!”
Kwaaaaang!!
Out of nowhere the door of the meeting room flew off. It went right through the wall behind You.
“Kyaaaa!”
“Huh!”
The entire conference room was shaken. Looking at the dust rising from the wall like smoke Yōu said ‘Huh!’ and backed away.
All eyes turned to the door.
I saw the leg of someone who had smashed the door. Soon the bridge went down and the figure came inside.
jerk- jerk-
Swallowing can be heard everywhere.
A blue-haired boy who appeared and silenced everyone.
In the heavy silence he opened his mouth.
“Sorry I’m late. My name is Simon Pollentia.”
So the commander of the Mercury side was decided to be Simon.
* * *
The time of war is coming.
Now all the troops of the Aon Kingdom have been deployed on the walls and are ready. The outer castle has four gates.
Among them Simon decided to take charge of the South Gate along with Dick and Meirin.
‘It’s a difficult atmosphere to breathe.’
There was a high tension all around. Numerous emotions flickered in the eyes of the beastmen wearing heavy armor and helmets.
Tension fear excitement fear and resignation.
Even the detailed emotional expression gives goosebumps. I wondered if this was really a world created by one person.
Simon came to his senses and looked down at the bottom of the wall. He wasn’t as tall as he thought but he thought it would be effective in its own way to stop the enemy.
Since the power was 10 times higher he had to fight using his castle as much as possible.
“But Simon.”
Dick came to talk to the soldiers by putting enchantments on their quivers.
“What are you doing so late?”
“I returned the Skeleton Mage to the flame system and looked around the castle and set it up.”
“So what setting?”
“that is….”
Simon lowered his voice and answered in a secret voice.
okay.
Upon hearing Simon’s answer Dick dropped the enchanted arrow on the floor.
“… Mr. Wai aren’t you really crazy? You’re going to use that here?!”
“It’s a last resort.”
Simon smiled lightly. Dick shook his head.
“Anyway it looks like a madman when you look at it and make a strategy.”
“It’s a compliment it’s an insult.”
“High praise for a necromancer!”
Saying that Dick went to enchant the soldiers’ armor. Simon also stretched out after finishing the Skeleton Mage arrangement.
“ah.”
I can see Merlin’s face.
She was leaning against the wall her chin resting and looking up at the sky. With a serious expression on her face Simon approached her with a leisurely gait.
“What are you thinking about?”
“Wow!”
She was startled and shrugged her shoulders. Then she glared at Simon and she shouted.
“Oh no! Don’t scare me!”
‘…Really surprised.’
If you just look at it Meirin also has a corner like a timid.
Simon smiled and stood next to Meirin looking out the wall. She licked her lips too then turned her gaze away to stare out of her.
The two of them just stared at the sky without speaking for a while.
“The sky is beautiful.”
Meilin murmured softly.
“I know.”
“It’s a pity that Kami isn’t there.”
“huh.”
“….”
“….”
Suddenly an awkward wind blew.
Is it because we’ve been together for a long time? Is it awkward because it feels awkward?
I wanted to continue the story of something.
“What did you talk about with Serene earlier…”
Her expression which didn’t seem to be in a bad mood instantly burned with anger.
Simon quickly turned his head back thinking he wanted to punch himself in the mouth.
“Don’t talk about her until now?”
“M-I’m sorry.”
Merlin sighed deeply.
“It was just a boring conversation.”
-Maylin!
At that moment Serene’s voice rang in my ears.
-If you can bring Simon to the ivory tower wouldn’t the elders change their eyes on you?
-What I couldn’t do Meirin you did. isn’t it?
Merlin let out an annoyed sigh.
It was so irritating that he thought he was up to the top of other people’s heads.
“The second semester is already over.”
Meanwhile Simon was sweating profusely trying to quickly change the topic of conversation.
“When you’re in the second year-“
This time Simon’s voice softened slightly.
“Are we all going to scatter?”
“I can’t help it because my major is different.”
After answering that Meirin heard Serene’s voice again.
-I’m going to be with Simon as a summoning major in my sophomore year! I didn’t think that now as a freshman was my only chance…!
“Ah-oh!!”
Merlin scratched her head. Simon flinched and distanced herself from her and she said Meilin belatedly.
“No I’m not talking to you… Ah.”
“what’s the matter?”
The eyes of the two were directed forward.
A group of jet-black troops began to approach.
“Enemy! Soldiers from the Khan Kingdom have appeared!”
“Prepare for battle!”
Simon who became serious in an instant put his hand on the nameplate.
“Everyone prepare. Unless there is a special variable keep as much as possible without leaving the designated area.”
Blue flags are raised everywhere.
It was an OK sign.
‘…Uh I’m very nervous.’
Dark troops were rushing into the castle. Simon made up his mind and the eyes of the Skeleton Mages lined up behind him flashed.
Soon the war will begin.
