Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 225
Walter’s direct disciple proposal.
In recent years there have already been two direct discipleship proposals. But without thinking for long Simon lowered his head.
“sorry.”
It seemed to me that it would be better to clearly state the intention of refusal without giving room here.
Walter simply nodded his head plainly without asking why.
“If you ever change your mind feel free to tell me. If you join forces with me your hematology will be much better than it is now.”
“Yes. Thank you for your concern.”
Walter smiled softly.
“Please say thank you directly to Professor Shilaji later. All research is supervised by Professor Shilaji.”
“Sure. I’ll be sure to visit and say hello when I get back to Kizen.”
Simon bowed to Walter and left the lab.

That’s how the first hematology class ended safely. Simon and his crew came to the restaurant for lunch.
“If you pick up a tree on the road? Wood deuk!”
One of Dick’s jokes on his 20th try got caught. Kamibarez laughed out loud and Mailyn only twitched the corners of her mouth hurting her pride.
Dick who quickly caught the figure shouted.
“Yes! Finally Meirin laughed too!”
“Ah I didn’t laugh!! Why did I do that…!”
Dick and Kamibarez laughed even louder at Meirin’s stammering excuses.
Simon who looked at the scene with a smile fell into thought again.
‘New power.’
Although he rejected Balter’s offer to become his direct disciple he has no intention of neglecting this new skill training even for the sake of Silage. How can I use this most effectively?
‘Should I use it one more time since I thought of it?’
He pulled out a drop of blood from his index finger and unfolded the magic circle he had just learned from Walter. Blood drops and magic circles combined and smoke with a unique pattern like a snail’s shell flowed out.
The combination of blood and jet black but it was strange to see a vivid emerald color. The feeling of being transformed into a completely different third substance.
Simon raised his finger and swung it up and down and the smoke moved in that direction as well. Finally Simon stretched his fingers out to the side and smoke shot out and engulfed the saucepan on the next table.
‘It feels like I’m picking it up with my real hand.’
Cloud’s control was as easy as handling my own body.
The smoke returned and passed the sauce bottle into Simon’s hand. Simon unlocked the cloud and seasoned the hot noodle dish with red pepper sauce.
“….”
But at some point the conversation between friends stopped. When I looked up I saw three people looking down in a surprised pose with their own personality.
“What what what! What did you just do?!”
Surprised Maylin screamed.
“…Ow didn’t you just look a little cool? It’s a romance to pick up things that you can’t reach.”
said Dick enviously.
“Awesome! Is this Simon’s new technique?”
Kamibarez his eyes wide open joined his hands and said. Seeing her reaction more intense than expected Simon explained with an embarrassing laugh.
“Professor Walter told me earlier. He said this is a new way to use the SM-1.”
“That new blood type you have?”
“huh.”
Simon turned his head back to the meal and blew on the noodles.
Oops it’s very spicy. Added too much sauce.
“So Simon is learning with you in hematology class now?”
Kamibarez asked with a smile.
“Yeah that’s right.”
“That’s great! I’ve always noticed Simon sitting all alone in hematology class!”
Well thinking about it suddenly made me feel better. From now on you will be able to take hematology classes properly.
Mei-Lin who sat back down and ate the lentil salad raised her head.
“Oh but what about the next class?”
“Summoning!”
Dick answered right away.
“Yesterday and today are in a row. Instead this week’s Summoning Science is over.”
“You’ve stuck to your class schedule! I don’t know if Professor Aron is on a mission again.”
Simon who had been listening to the conversation between Dick and Kamivarez was lost in thought for a moment.
‘Oh come to think of it…’
* * *
The location for the second summoning class was the same raceway track as yesterday.
“Today I’m going to review the ‘Skeleton Dash’ I learned in the first class.”
Aaron crossed his arms and continued.
“I’ll tell you if you don’t succeed in this class know how to deduct points from your evaluation score.”
As a result the concentration and class participation rate of students soared more than ever. Hands of students seeking help and feedback came up from all over the place and teaching assistants had to wander around frantically.
“Keeping the skeleton comes first. Dash comes next.”
Aaron was also watching the students practice. The first target was Cindy Vivace who was on the verge of failing in all subjects except necromancer.
“Because I care so much about dashing only two legs stick out.”
“But if I focus on the skeleton’s bond the dash won’t go out!”
“Still solidarity comes first. Priority setting is wrong.”
Accepting Aaron’s feedback Cindy gave priority to the skeleton bond and ordered a dash.
The skeleton’s foot jumped forward a few centimeters from the starting point.
“Ugh. As expected…!”
“Well done. It’s right to get used to it like this.”
“But the other kids’ skeletons are going fast and well.”
Boo woo woo!
Just then behind Aaron Simon was laying out the skeletons in a row and commanding a dash. The sharp-edged straw flew high and landed around Aaron’s feet.
Aaron pretended not to notice and focused on Cindy’s feedback.
“If you stick to the basics the distance will increase someday.”
Awesome!
“On the contrary if the basics are shaken by impatience everything collapses.”
Boo woo woo!
“No one does well from the start. Take enough time…”
Boaaaaaang!
“Simon Pollentia!”
Aaron looked back and groaned. Simon who succeeded in dashing the five skeletons looked back at Aaron with an innocent expression.
‘…Such a snarky guy.’
Aaron sighed and closed his eyes.
“You stay after class.”
“…ah!”
Aaron would always give Simon a make-up if he didn’t learn something in his class.
Simon smiled broadly as if he had waited for those words.
“Yes! Professor!”
* * *
After all of the regular summoning classes were over Aaron and Simon met in the back lot. The two shared a brief story about their current situation.
“You learned about exploding corpses?”
Aaron asked with a serious face.
“Yes! Can I show you?”
“Who did you learn from?”
Simon who had been secretly looking forward to it was surprised that he would praise him for acquiring a new skill.
Aaron was making a terrifyingly serious expression without a hint of playfulness.
“This is an important question. Don’t look away and answer honestly.”
In a situation where Magnus the commander of the 5th corps is reaching out information related to the corps commander must be blocked as much as possible. Even if your mouth is torn you can’t answer Jonah and it’s dangerous to bring up the name Richard Pollentia.
It’s a bit clichéd but Simon decided to make an excuse.
“A retired necromancer stayed at my house for a while during vacation. To him…”
Of course Aaron didn’t believe it.
“Open the magic circle.”
Aaron’s voice was cold so Simon’s shoulders trembled slightly.
Watching his notice I made a corpse explosion magic circle that I usually use as instructed.
Aaron’s eyes frantically searched the magic circle.
“… haaa.”
After a while a sigh of relief escaped his lips. Simon swallowed his saliva nervously.
“Who did you learn from?”
“Oh he’s an acquaintance of my father’s. Is something wrong?”
Aaron who looked at the magic circle once again as if savoring it let out a small exclamation.
“That’s amazing.”
Simon’s eyes widened.
“Although the formula for Corpse Explosion is specialized for quick casting the power was set so that it did not drop that much. It may overload the mental power a little but it is natural to do this in a scene where you die if you do it tens of thousands of times. It is a thorough practical magic circle with know-how.”
Is it that great?
When Richard told me about the corpse explosion magic circle he said it was a simplified formula and structure rather than the one he used.
“I learned well from good people.”
good.
Aaron took a cigar from his pocket put it in his mouth and lit it. Then she turned around blew out a cigar and looked at Simon again.
“As you know pitch darkness has a ‘temperature to remember’. If you learn insufficient or unnecessary formulas or magic circles with serious problems first you will have a hard time correcting them later. Teenagers like you who are learning in the middle of learning should be especially careful. That’s why you shouldn’t learn black magic from just anyone.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Nothing to apologize for. If you learned Corpse Explosion from me I would have taught you something a little heavier but this compact Corpse Explosion isn’t bad either. You left room for a formula that will increase your power as you grow. It’s yours now.”
Aaron crossed his arms.
“You’re really not an ordinary person. I’d like to meet you later and talk.”
To the extent that Professor Keyzen said this. It was surprising but Simon quickly drew the line.
“I-I’m also an acquaintance of your father and I don’t know much about him except for the ones I saw often when I was young.”
“Yes. There are still many closed-minded necromancers. This is enough of the corpse explosion story.”
Aaron who lightly brushed off the tip of his cigar with his finger continued.
“So what do you want to learn from me this time?”
“Ah. That’s…”
Simon explained all the situations in Walter’s lab brought Cloud up and showed it in front of Aaron.
However maybe it was because of hematology technology unlike the surprised reactions of the other members Aaron had a rather sour expression.
“I don’t know why you’re showing this to me. Professor Walter knows more about hematology than I do.”
“Oh that’s it.”
Simon scratched the side of his head and laughed bitterly.
“Actually I recently turned down Professor Walter’s offer to become a direct disciple. It’s not a skill in a textbook and I’m sorry I didn’t ask properly…”
“….”
“So I was wondering if I could combine this power with Summoning Science.”
Aaron smoked a cigar.
smoked long
I burned all the cigars and took out new ones and lit them again.
“… Completely unknown hematology technology. And a combination with Summoning Science.”
Taktak.
Aaron brushed off the burnt part of his cigar and looked at Simon.
“When you become a sophomore later on something called ‘combined study’ comes out. It is not possible to complete a study in one study so you mix and add knowledge from other studies to create a synergistic effect.”
“Ah! Then hematology and summoning science too!”
“Of course there is that too. It’s not a problem to teach them but it’s a bit tricky since it’s a combination of your original blood flow technology and summoning science…”
For a moment Aaron’s eyes widened as he muttered.
“Wait did you say that this smoke feels connected to your body?”
“Ah yes.”
“You share senses and nerves too?”
“yep.”
Aaron was about to pull out a third cigar and put it back in. Then thinking about it he said.
“one week.”
“yes?”
“Come see me after next week’s Summoning class. I’ll finish it before then.”
Aaron raised his chin and showed a strong passion for learning in his eyes.
“The next skill you learn is the Blood Golem which the 3rd years learn.”
