Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 579
“I can finally see you.”
“shake!”
The Summoning Department students put on coats and robes with excited faces and came out of the classroom.
‘Durahan.’
Simon’s expectations were higher than anyone else’s. Aaron trying to avoid his burdensome gaze fixed his coat and said.
“Looks like we’ve come. Let’s begin.”
He opened the subspace with a simple hand gesture. A large leg protruded from within and landed on the snow.
wow-!
Did he make the undead out of giants? The Dyurahan used by Aaron was huge. He was covered in pitch-black armor and behind his back was a greatsword.
The part where the neck was supposed to be was empty and black energy shimmered across the cross section.
I was walking around swinging my big arms and the students who jumped out to get a close look backed away in surprise.
“Huh!”
“Kyaaaa!”
Terrible screams were heard everywhere. What that hand was holding was Dyurahan’s own head.
Some of the students made a terrified look at the undead’s unique look of looking around with their hair in their arms.
“Wow! Wow! Fuck I’m cool!”
“Can we use that now?”
Of course there were students who burned their interest and spirit of inquiry purely as necromancers. Among them was Eshu who jumped around excitedly.
“Eshu.”
Simon grabbed her wrist sticking out like a rock and pulled.
“Dangerous.”
Booung!
Dyurahan’s arm which raised his head swung in front of Eshu’s nose. He almost crashed into it.
She opened her eyes wide as if surprised then raised the corners of her mouth and made a sound of ‘oh-ol~’.
“…What is Ool?”
“Whoa no no~ Thank you thank you.”
thud! thud!
Don Dyurahan who circled around came back in front of Aaron again.
It felt like the undead which was definitely different from the zombies ghouls and skeletons that I had seen so far.
“Durahan has several combat advantages.”
Aaron began to explain. At the same time Dyurahan raised his arms holding his head and secured his sight.
“It depends on sight but the head is apart. It has excellent durability. It can use knight’s aura. Among them I want to explain today.”
Sreung!
Dyurahan stared straight ahead and pulled out the sword behind his back. Aaron drew his magic circle and attached it to Dyurahan’s back.
“It is transcendent strength and physical ability.”
something is about to start
At the same time as the teaching assistants had the students step back they took out the skeleton they had set as the target. Dyurahan immediately jumped off the floor.
Tuong!
The huge figure seemed to fly high into the sky and swung the sword as soon as it landed.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The students’ hair all at once rose to the sky at the light and refreshing swordsmanship.
It was hard to believe that such a large body could move and it was so powerful and speedy. Every time you hit a skeleton with a sword it shattered from head to toe.
blah blah!
Finally when he cleanly split the target rock in half even a great exclamation burst out.
Powerful power is natural and even swordsmanship as a knight is superfluous.
“stop.”
Dyurahan stopped at Aaron’s instructions. When Dyurahan moved his body only the wind pressure caused by the snow piled up around him was pushed away and the floor was exposed.
“Hector Moore.”
Hector who had been watching arrogantly with his arms crossed responded politely as soon as his name was called.
“Yes Professor.”
“What do you think is the source of the power and speed that Dullahan just showed?”
Aaron’s indiscriminate questions that students fear the most.
But Hector answered without hesitation.
“It’s a dark aura.”
Aura is a skill of knights who plant mana. And of course the concept of dark aura was an aura that made it pitch black not mana.
“It’s a textbook answer but it’s wrong. This Dullahan just didn’t use an aura.”
Hector frowned. It is a regretful response.
“Toto Armory.”
“Yes? Ah Nenenet! I am Toto Amori! That that…! Outstanding physical strength…”
“Wrong.”
This time Aaron’s gaze moved over Toto.
“Simon Pollentia.”
“….”
Simon thought for a moment and said.
“It’s mana.”
Heads tilted in response from all over the place. Hector’s factions even laughed.
“It’s interesting. Why do you think the source of the undead’s power is mana?”
“just now.”
Simon stretched out his hand and pointed at Dyurahan. Dyurahan moved his head in his hand and looked at Simon.
“I saw the surrounding mana being sucked into Dyurahan.”
It was only then that some of the students seemed to have noticed something.
“Oh I see.”
“It seems that the mana concentration around you has decreased before you know it…”
Aaron nodded slowly.
“That’s correct.”
oh-!
Exclamations erupted all around.
Eshu shouted ‘As expected of the student council president!’ and patted his shoulder while Hector clicked his tongue annoyedly.
“Durahan is often referred to as a mana-eating monster. Just like a necromancer breathes in mana and activates his core to turn it into pitch black Durahan also draws in all the mana in the air and converts it into pitch black to use as his own power.”
Aaron opened the magic circle in front of Dyurahan’s chest with only pure mana. Then the frame of the magic circle collapsed without lasting one second and was sucked into Dyurahan.
“Because the amount of mana absorbed is beyond imagination a wizard can be incapacitated just by getting close to it. It is also useful in combat with priests who change mana in the air into divinity. Let’s all try it.”
The students rushed out and opened the mana magic circle and Dyurahan absorbed them all. The longer the distance the longer the magic circle could be maintained and in the case of the dark magic circle this was not the case.
As expected even in modern times the main undead was different but something was different.
Aaron then pointed out Dullahan’s body and explained. Only this Dyurahan had a total of 11 mana sucking holes.
“Coming back to the main topic do you remember the ‘Golden Line of Reno’ a ghoul funeral technique you learned about in the Summoning Funeral Class?”
“yes!”
“Instead of sacrificing the summoning magic circle a ghoul can spread the explosive blackness throughout its body to gain powerful power for 1-2 minutes. Think of Dullahan’s explosive strength on a similar principle.”
A berserker undead that fights madly by sucking up mana from the surroundings and burning the pitch-dark created from it as fuel.
That was Dullahan.
“Because of this characteristic it is common to use Dyurahan briefly and thickly for 15 to 20 minutes immediately after taking it out of subspace. It plays the role of a key card that changes. Of course there are Dullahans that make it possible to fight for 2 to 3 hours but in this case the momentary power is reduced.”
Aseraj raised his hand.
“I’m Asheraz Mikel! Then shouldn’t Dyurahan also have an organ that corresponds to the Necromancer’s core?”
“Yes. For reference the jet-dark organ of Dullahan surpasses the Necromancer’s core in terms of short-term mana conversion rate.”
The students groaned.
“Of course there are pros and cons. Dyurahan’s jet-black engine is specialized in simple jet-black emission and if you use it for about 20 minutes think of it as rapidly deteriorating in efficiency.”
Then the assistants came over and put something down on the table in front of Aaron.
“This is the core of the Dyurahan.”
pounding- pounding-
It was a living organ that looked like a huge piece of flesh. A magic circle was drawn on it.
“Durahan is an engine that moves large hardware and a biological organ that changes mana to pitch black. Dullahan requires two summoning magic circles and one of them is drawn on top of this organ.”
Simon approaches to take a closer look at the magic circle but when Aaron gestures the magic circle turns transparent.
“I’m going to teach it in class anyway so there’s no need to rush. I’ll start a simple performance evaluation from now on.”
“?!”
At the word performance evaluation the students’ expressions were filled with tension.
“I will provide you with Bigfoot’s organ a native monster here that can replace Dullahan’s Dark Engine. Use everything you’ve learned so far to create a magic circle on top of Bigfoot’s organ. Try to make it as similar as possible to Dyurahan’s Dark Engine.”
The students were agitated but Aaron calmly continued.
“Of course there is nothing to worry about too much. This is a free creative process before you learn the knowledge established in textbooks.
The teaching assistants were busy moving and setting up desks and chairs outdoors. Aaron looked at his watch and checked the time.
“Then let’s get ready right away.”
* * *
The students all sat down at their desks outdoors. A large living organ was given on the table.
As if a black magic device had already been installed the organ was absorbing mana from the surroundings. However it couldn’t create pitch black and it just leaked out through the outlet below.
Now the purpose of this performance evaluation was to make this jet-black discharge.
“I will provide the default settings.”
The teaching assistants put down a board with a half-drawn magic circle on the table of the students.
“If there are ingredients you want to use bring them from the side.”
There was a shelf with various materials next to the practice room. Aaron clapped his hands.
“Begin.”
The students all started drawing the magic circle. There is only one biological organ given and it is the end if you make even the slightest mistake.
“…This is a very difficult task.”
“How are you going to make something you haven’t learned yet?”
Most of the students felt vague. Some held their breath and expressed their displeasure.
“What’s the use of classes and professors if you can make a Dullahan on your own?”
“I know yeah.”
In the midst of giving up one after another I saw three people moving without hesitation.
They were Hector Asheraz and Fitzgerald.
“It’s a solo performance of the pre-learners in the family.”
“Ah give up give up.”
The grumbling students put their hands down and started slapping the bruises but there were also students who watched them with shining eyes even though they didn’t know anything.
‘Hector took the Opel.’
‘The same goes for Aseras!’
‘Is Opel essential?’
The students ran out and took the same ingredients as the previous three.
A fierce battle of the eyes began and physical fights broke out between students trying to secure materials.
“Now now don’t fight!”
“There are plenty of ingredients!”
While the teaching assistants were controlling the students Simon who was in first place stood silently with his arms crossed.
“Simon! Aren’t you going to start?”
Toto said bringing an armful of materials including Opel.
“In case the ingredients run out I’ll bring them first…”
“Professor Aaron.”
Simon’s expression was serious.
“Why did you ask me to make a jet-dark organ of Dyurahan that hasn’t been taught yet?”
“Uh huh? That’s it I don’t know.”
Simon was recalling the stories and scenes Aaron had told him on the first day of his second year major summoning class.
– In order to create a Skeleton Knight you need to learn the ‘Rune of Contempt’ and the formulas based on it. At this time the learned ‘rune of memory’ goes into the core material of ghouls the upper entity of zombies.
-In order to create a ghoul you must learn the formula for alteration and corruption that causes the body to mutate. After that by combining the ghoul’s corruption formula and the rune of thoughts learned from the Skeleton Knight. You can create the magical undead “Debaurer”.
Aaron had written countless undead formulas and rune words to learn in the first semester on the blackboard while explaining over and over again. Then he tied all the writings together drew a line and gathered them in the center at the end.
– You guys are finally when you have built up all these basic skills. You can create a tier 3 undead headless knight ‘Dullahan’.
“…Toto.”
After reminiscing Simon grinned and finally lifted the quill.
“In fact we may already know how.”
