Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 491
“A grave a cemetery?”
“Why are you here…”
The students looked bewildered.
Just a moment ago I was scribbling a quill in the classroom but it suddenly landed in a cemetery.
I saw overcast skies thick fog dingy black-leaved plants and rows of graveyards. There was a gloomy atmosphere all over the place.
Simon got up and walked to the nearest graveyard.
“Soothing the spirits of the victims of the Mahilani landslide”
That was all written on the tombstone and there were no names of those buried.
Looking at the date it was a long time ago. Victims caught up in the disaster seem to be buried here as a group.
The condition of the cemetery was also very messy. It is covered with withered vines and weeds and traces of monsters and wild dogs digging through the ground are also visible.
“Welcome to the cemetery!”
“Welcome!”
The two twin professors approached the students with light steps.
“All necessary permits have been obtained. Rest assured that this graveyard can be used by our keygen for educational purposes.”
“There’s no better place to teach funeral rites than a cemetery!”
The twins beckoned into the air. She opened a dome-shaped barrier that covered a radius around her and her students.
“It’s just a barrier that blocks out sound!”
“Then let’s start class!”
The twins exchanged glances and nodded once then clasped their hands together and breathed in a sob.
[La―――――!!]
Simon felt his hair stand on end. A chilly energy runs down your back and pulls the back of your neck stiffly.
The other students were also exclaiming as if they were surprised.
“Wow that’s creepy.”
“It’s like a singer!”
Rather than a bright and beautiful melody it is a slightly gloomy melody. It reminded me of the howl of the dead.
The twins cut off the note at the same time.
Clap clap clap clap!
Some students clapped involuntarily. The twins snorted ‘Huh’ and looked back at the students.
“Did we tell you babes?”
“Why are you here? Children?”
All the students said in unison.
“You said you would experience the source of funeral pine!”
The twin professors nodded.
“That’s right! From now on the basics of the funeral rites!”
“I’m going to learn the ‘funeral song’ that calls the undead!”
“I’m going to start with the most basic thing at the level of school bells. If you can’t follow this you’ll be disqualified as a summoner right? Rin?”
“That’s right Rune! It’s just a necromancer disqualification!”
Two girls joined hands.
“I’ll sing one word at a time!”
“Follow me!”
“yes!”
Summoning class suddenly turned into music class. When the twin professors sang one word at a time the students followed suit.
[Ra-v-ri-ma-đưa ra. anh!]
Overwhelming tones cover the surroundings. Students open their mouths and sing along even though they are nervous about the creepy tone.
Then the professors corrected it.
“Only the Ma part that connects in the middle is bigger!”
There was no such thing as a magical device yet.
A very ordinary music class.
The only difference is that the lyrics are not in continental language and the melody is foreign and difficult to sing as it is a song about the undead.
Still it was a short song at the level of one verse so it was not difficult to memorize it. During the break given for a while the students went around humming songs.
And even during break time the professors of twin girls continued to explain.
“This funeral song has an unknown title and an unknown author. Among necromancers it’s called ‘corpse excavation’!”
“In the old days grave robbers must have walked around the tombs at night singing this song!”
“Then I could see that the tomb was moving and that there was still a body in it!”
“Nowadays you can save the undead even in the city so it’s a long time ago!”
It was the twins’ explanation that echoed like an echo.
“Then break time is over! Wake up everyone!”
“Now I’m going to teach you how to do dark magic with music!”
There were an infinite number of ways to create magical effects with music but the twin professors taught them the most basic way in the first class.
A method of creating a magical effect by placing a magic circle in front of your mouth and touching the formula or rune of the magic circle with a song. Intuitive and simple.
Of course you have to succeed in this step to be able to sing a more powerful funeral song in the future.
‘oh.’
It was amazing when I did it myself.
When the magic circle is opened and a song is sung certain parts of the magic circle light up and disappear repeatedly as the song progresses.
As if the magic circle understood the song.
“You have to cut off the Ra-v-ri part exactly and pronounce it!”
“If you put them together it becomes a completely different command so the magic circle can’t react!”
The twin professors and assistants went around correcting the students’ songs.
Simon who was working harder than anyone else was about to get a little bit thirsty so he was drinking water for a while.
“How is it? How’s it going?”
Lorraine came.
Simon scratched his head awkwardly and replied.
“Hmm. It’s harder than I thought.”
“Can I teach you something? I know Funeral Song well because I sang it a lot when I was young.”
Also Lorraine.
It was the power of early education.
“Then please.”
Simon did not refuse.
Lorraine nodded and spread the magic circle in front of her mouth. and took a small breath.
Finally her lips opened.
“Find-die Die-be….”
‘!’
The first note alone gave me goosebumps.
A tidy and graceful timbre. It’s obviously the same song sung by the professor twins but it feels completely different.
At the same time the effect of the burial was well contained in the fact that the goose bumps were slightly on the back.
rattle! rattle!
As her voice resounded the tomb in front of me shook. Even though the output of the magic circle was minimized it was this much.
If the output was raised properly it seemed that the cemetery would be destroyed and the hands of the dead would come out of nowhere.
“It’s like lifting the tip of the note slightly here. Like this.”
She sang a line and repeated the point to Simon.
“With a pathetic ringing feeling at the end. ein-dickes Schädel üdbrig!”
she stopped singing
Then I saw Simon.
“Now would you like to do it?”
Simon who had been stunned for a moment suddenly nodded.
“I’ll try!”
Simon stepped forward.
can do.
I can do it.
Whoops. It inhaled and gave strength to the stomach.
“Fin-ded-ie D-ie-be!”
Lorraine put on a startled expression as Simon’s characteristic tone flowed.
“Ich tre-ffe sie dieim Grab….”
The students around them who heard Simon’s song were also buzzing. Toto and Fitzgerald who were nearby also approached.
“Schädel übrig――!”
Simon spat out the last syllable with great effort wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“how is it?”
“Uh um. Simon.”
Lorraine’s face flushed slightly. She then turned her head as if she were looking at the distant mountains.
“You’re not good at singing.”
“?!”
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
The students who were watching started laughing loudly. In particular Toto was genuinely surprised.
“There’s something even Simon can’t do.”
As if agreeing Fitzgerald corrected his glasses.
“Well if a human being is too good at anything he has no humanity.”
Simon’s face heated up.
“My how’s my song? The notes are all up!”
“The sound is not the problem~ Simon.”
Before I knew it even Serene approached with her ivory-colored hair flowing. She waved her long white index finger playfully in front of Simon’s eyes.
“The beats are all wrong right? Park Chi.”
“…Keugh!”
Serene says so. and drew in his breath.
“die im Grab gefangen ist――!”
The students opened their mouths at the unconventional volume and graceful resonant that was exhaled while frowning.
This crazy genius created a funerary effect with just a song without even using a magic circle. The tombs around them were shaking.
“Are you going to do this?”
Cerne gave Simon a light wink and turned his head. Lorraine clenched her fists with a look of resentment.
Simon let out a laugh.
Is singing insanely good a genetic trait of ivory towers? really. Serne said that she was an adopted child brought by the owner of the ivory tower.
‘anyway.’
Simon sighed and sighed. And I sang the same line but the reaction around me was only awkward laughter.
Serene let out a squeaking noise.
“Ah~ I’m fine with guys who can’t sing. Instead I’m better at the things I like.”
‘…For some reason I feel strangely bad.’
Lorraine also said something.
“It’s okay Simon. Funeral song has nothing to do with singing skills. Just wake up the undead. Headache is a disease that can be overcome.”
‘Lorraine! Even you…!’
While Simon who had been blocked by the wall of talent for the first time in a long time was on his knees in despair the twin professors chattered and approached.
“Can we start Rin?”
“Let’s start! Rune!”
“Now kids! We’re going to conduct performance evaluations from now on! Let’s spread out and practice!”
“Then if you succeed in waking the undead in front of us and the assistants you’ll pass!”
The twins held hands and stretched them out to the sides. The eyes of the students also turned to the direction they taught.
“There’s a teleport magic circle ready!”
“The baby who passes the test and gets the score can go back to school right away!”
“After that free time!”
The eyes of the students twinkled at the sound of going back to school. The twin professor raised his clasped hands toward the sky.
“Then from now on!”
“Start!”
As soon as the start sign dropped the students scattered. I had to preoccupy a good cemetery.
Simon also hurried away. Then he found a spot in a corner and covered with trees. He took a deep breath.
‘The first performance evaluation of Jang Song-hak class. I will definitely succeed!’
Simon’s eyes widened with determination.
* * *
four hours passed
95% of the Summoning Department students who entered the graveyard returned to Kizen.
Cerne was the first to get an A+ followed by Lorraine. Aseras and Hector of course were also in the upper ranks and even Toto and Fitzgerald left the graveyard.
and.
“Find… die… be…”
Simon was completely hoarse.
‘No there are things that can’t be done even with hard work.’
After a while Simon and the last remaining male student rode out on the teleportation magic circle.
Suddenly the cemetery was covered with black darkness.
“I’m left alone.”
“I was left alone.”
The two twin professors approached with light steps.
“Follow me.”
“dunce.”
“…yes.”
Simon followed them into a deeper area. They lit up the darkness with a lantern in each hand.
‘Where are you taking me?’
I can’t do it here so I’m trying to move the place to another place?
Or do you intend to punish?
Whatever it was Simon who was last in the class had no choice. I trudged after the two twins.
And finally we arrived at a densely populated cemetery area completely overgrown with grass.
If there was order in the location of the cemetery even though management was insufficient in the previous place it was a total mess here. The graves were randomly intertwined as if they were in a hurry to just bury the bodies.
“Professor this is…”
“Are you going to give up?”
Professor Lin the twin suddenly asked. Simon winced and stopped him.
“That’s right! Giving up is a student’s right!”
“Do you want to just get an F and go back to school?”
“….”
Power went into Simon’s fist. A voice came out of a hoarse throat.
“I want to do it all the way.”
At those words the twin professors tilted their heads.
“It’s strange Rin.”
“Right it’s strange. Rune.”
“You know better than anyone that you can’t do anything right?”
“You know best that it can’t be improved that the possibility is 0% right?”
“Then why do you keep trying?”
“Why don’t you give up?”
The two twins asked as if pushing but Simon answered with a smile.
“I’ve never thought about why I should give up or why I should give up.”
The twins’ eyes went blank.
“Oh. Rin’s words! I got it back! I took a shot!”
“No! Actually Rune did it!”
“Do not lie!”
The two twins quarreled for a moment then stopped fighting at the same time and took a step back.
“What is your name?”
“Simon Pollentia.”
“Okay. I’ll teach you Simon.”
“Actually the funeral song I taught you. It might be natural that you can’t sing it Simon.”
“…yes?”
The two twins held hands and raised their voices.
“Sharks don’t need to learn the songs of sardines right?”
“I’ll tell you the real one that suits you.”
