Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 261
next day.
Third Indoor Stadium.
Instead of the BMAT being held as an open exam this semester’s duel evaluations were all conducted in private.
The atmosphere in the indoor arena was so quiet. Most of the people sitting sparsely in the stands are students waiting for the afternoon game students who came to spy on power and.
“Haaam.”
They were high school students who came to watch because they were bored. Here the sophomore girl with bobbed hair sitting in the back seat with her legs crossed was the same.
“Hello senior!”
At that time a male student started talking to her.
“…1 Grade?”
“Yes! My name is Dick Hayward.”
Dick bent down with a bright business smile.
“It’s good to see Gyeolpyeong but isn’t it time to get hungry soon?”
As Dick said that Kamivarez was standing next to him holding a bunch of drinks and snacks.
The sophomores frowned.
“What are you doing? I’m not buying anything like this.”
“Heh heh! How can I get money from a senior like the sky? The Kizen 2nd grade curriculum that is said to be so hard here’s a little cheer from my juniors in the sense of cheering up!”
“okay?”
At the word free she snatched the drink as if snatching it away.
“Do you think there is a concept of taking care of seniors? Snacks are enough I’m on a diet.”
“Yep! Rest in peace!”
Dick and Kamivarez tried to turn their backs on her but she called out again.
“Isn’t this something strange?”
“Ha ha ha! How can you not go to school after doing bad things to a senior like the sky! This is a completely new unopened item brought from the campus cafe!”
“Okay. Then go.”
The sophomore put a straw in and gestured. Like that Dick and Kamibarez passed out drinks and snacks to a few more seniors.
“Okay it’s over!”
said Dick proudly sitting in his seat.
“Thank you so much for your help Kami! I’ll shoot all lunch and dinner today and tomorrow!”
She sat down next to her blushing as if this was not very awkward.
“Rather than that Dick why are you handing out drinks and snacks to the seniors?”
“It’s all networking~ networking work.”
Dick crossed his arms condescendingly.
“After talking to 100 seniors like this it’s good to get along with even one or two by chance. The seniors who came to see the conclusion are generally generous towards the juniors! And.”
Dick pointed to a kamivarez-filled drink. The logo was attached to the bottle like a sticker.
“ah!”
It was an advertisement.
It was Dick’s agency business that if you ordered from the category he would bring the goods to Rochester the next day and deliver them to the dorm.
The sticker logo was a sandal with wings underneath which was a small brand name Talaria.
“Sophomores don’t know my business yet so I’m advertising in my spare time.”
At those words Kamibarez let out a small exclamation.
“I think Dick lives a lot harder than people think!”
“Hmm? Wait a minute! How do I look to other people?”
“A lazy cheating image!”
Kamibarez laughed as Dick grabbed his chest with an exaggeratedly wounded expression.
“It would have been nice if Meirin came along but it’s a pity.”
“Because he has a game in the morning. Oh it’s starting soon!”
“I see Simon over there!”
I saw students warming up slowly including Simon.
The referee came forward and explained the rules.
“From this duel evaluation we will adopt a new protective suit.”
The participating students including Simon were already wearing the new protective suits. It was a clean ultramarine blue top and bottom and it glowed softly as if powerful black magic had been cast on it.
“Previous protective suits sensed an impact first opened the barrier and reduced the ‘barrier gauge’ on the screen according to the impact applied to the barrier.”
The referee held a dagger in his hand and cut himself in the thigh. The students groaned in surprise.
However the moment the dagger cut through his thigh instead of blood purple magic flowed out like blood. The referee’s thighs were also intact.
“This suit receives the opponent’s attack as it is. Pain curse effect and poisoning effect all feel real. In addition to that.”
The referee took a few steps to the side. His leg went limp.
“When attacked the suit reproduces effects such as bleeding fractures and amputations giving the wearer the feeling of real combat.”
‘I don’t need that liveliness!’
At this moment all the students were shouting inwardly.
“Of course the wearer’s body is intact as long as the protective suit is not torn so please rest assured. This suit could be worn from the 2nd year but from this year the 1st year which is the second semester of the combined semester will also wear it.”
The audience was buzzing with the new fact. Dick clicked his tongue and propped the back of his head with his arm.
“True-kizens read hard. All they have to do is raise the level of difficulty while saying that it’s a semi-war curriculum and an integrated second semester.”
“Ah will it hurt?”
Dick laughed nonchalantly as Kamivarez made a frightened expression.
“Yes it’s a fake pain. They say it’s weaker than a real cut or stab. Eh huh?”
“Why is that?”
“Professor Bahil is here too!”
Kamibarez’s head also went up.
Indeed at the end of the stands I could see Bahil and chief assistant Chehekl sitting side by side.
As the public’s attention gathered at the appearance of a celebrity Barhil slightly raised his index finger to his lips and waved his hand. A muffled scream was heard everywhere.
“Who did you come to see?”
“Of course I am!”
Dick exclaimed excitedly.
“I was invited to go to Professor Bahil’s lab too! I cleaned it!”
“… Dick’s an afternoon game.”
Then the referee’s cry was heard.
“Then I’ll prepare for the first game right away. Class A’s Simon Pollentia.”
Simon whose name was called walked to the center of the arena.
“and.”
The referee’s head turned to the other side.
“Class A student Claudia Menzies.”
On the other side Claudia walked. Simon put on a puzzled expression.
‘Of course Claudia is the opponent.’
Because of a recent encounter I was a bit uncomfortable with her. Soon the two stood facing each other.
“Hi I’ll meet you here.”
Simon said hello first. While his face was somewhat relaxed Claudia had a bloody hostility burning in his eyes.
“All day yesterday and today.”
“?”
“I was thinking about how to defeat you. I watched countless videos of your decision with the Memorial Crystal Ball and stayed up all night studying strategy.”
Simon was genuinely curious.
“Then did you figure out my strategy?”
“of course.”
If everything went according to plan Claudia was confident that her win rate would be 100%.
Then the referee tilted his arms forward.
“Two students. Handshake.”
Simon and Claudia approached and shook hands.
“I look forward to it. Let’s have a good game.”
“still.”
said Claudia.
“Is your belief in Professor Byeol-ya unchanged?”
Simon let go of the handshake and nodded. She gritted her teeth and turned her back.
As soon as the two faced each other with a distance the referee shouted.
“Then from now on we will begin the duel evaluation between Simon Pollentia from Class A and Claudia Menzies from Class A!”
Loud shouts erupted from the crowd.
“Simon! Grab it neatly and come!”
“Hwaiting! Cheer up Simon!!”
I could hear Dick and Kamibarez cheering. A small smile crept across Simon’s lips when he saw the two of them.
The referee who alternately looked at Simon and Claudia lowered his arm raised above his head.
“Start the game!”
Worse! good!
As soon as the match started Claudia lifted the two potion bottles tied around her waist and dropped them at her feet.
Chee Hee Hee!
A thick layer of brown smoke leaked from the broken bottle obscuring her body from view.
As soon as it started it was poison gas.
Simon who attached the base of the blood golem magic circle behind his back stared straight ahead.
The venom did not spread widely hovering around her and subsiding. Judging by the acrid smell she seemed pretty toxic.
‘You’ll never come in.’
Claudia’s eyes flashed in the poison gas.
‘I’ve completely analyzed the type of battle you do and the type of black magic you use.’
Claudia divided Simon’s fighting style into three stages according to time.
Early – Matou.
Mid-Overload.
Second half – Blood Golem and original skeleton skills.
‘Simon’s matou is extremely strong. If I go into close combat I have no chance of winning.’
So she spread poison under her feet to block the melee.
It was a bit unreasonable and although she swallowed the antidote it was a blow but she thought it would be cheap if she could stop Simon’s fighting.
‘Especially Simon has a strong back heart. If you summon a blood golem in the second half you have no chance of winning. Later I control just 23 skeletons at once but how can I overcome them?’
If you go to close combat you will lose. Even if it takes too long it will fail.
She recalled that information in her head and opened a new magic circle.
‘Simon’s weakness is in the middle of the game. At this time it’s ideal to take care of only the Overlord and defeat Simon before he summons the Blood Golem.’
She placed a deadly poison potion on top of the completed magic circle and activated it.
< Poison Fog >
A green orb rose from the magic circle that swallowed the potion and began to scatter poison mist in all directions.
Unlike the brown poison gas that swirled around her the poison fog spread widely and covered the entire arena in no time.
Of course the spectator seats were blocked by the magic screen so the smoke couldn’t go out and only the inside of the stadium was filled with smoke.
‘good. If this is the case the first step is success.’
Poison Fog was the core black magic used by anyone who wanted to study poison.
Placing Poison Fog and gnawing away the opponent’s physical strength the poison magician’s basic strategy is to solve the game with a focus on defense and counters.
Time is always on the side of the Venomancer and he can psychologically put pressure on his opponent.
Meanwhile Simon was looking around curiously as he prepared a new black magic.
‘As expected Claudia appears as Poison Fog.’
Simon knew it well because he had a duel evaluation with a student who wanted to study self-education in the first semester. He turned his head to stare at the mana screen.
[Simon Pollentia: 98%]
[Claudia Menzies: 94%]
The barrier gauge has already begun to decrease. As they entered the poison mist his throat choked and her whole body tingled.
In the meantime Claudia started a new Poison Fog one after another. This time yellow and orange poison smoke were added.
Each was a poison that paralyzed the nervous system or shook the opponent’s vision. It was a look that was thoroughly prepared to check Simon’s Matou and Blood Golem casting.
Simon was honestly amazed.
‘I’m not the best self-taught student in Class A for nothing.’
Stacking Poison Fog 3 times does not triple its power. There is compatibility between poisons and if used incorrectly either poison is buried or there are numerous cases where it interferes with the action in the body of the opponent.
However Claudia’s ability to combine poison seemed to be outstanding.
[Khehehe! Is it time to admire others skills? boy!]
‘I just finished it. I’m a bit unfamiliar with curses so I’m late to prepare.’
Simon put the curse he had finally completed on himself and stared straight ahead.
[Simon Pollentia: 92%]
[Claudia Menzies: 94%]
Before I knew it the barrier gauge was reversed. As if the effect of the poison was still going on the suit turned purple and then came back again.
‘Did you say you attacked me perfectly?’
Simon walked towards Claudia with a slight smile on his face.
‘Then I will actively use that point.’
