Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 265
People living in the Washburn Mountains liked to talk about the mysterious ‘old castle’ located on the top of the mountain.
Once you go in you can’t come out.
It’s full of terrible monsters that will overturn the world.
The owner of the old castle is a beautiful woman hiding in the mountains.
But speaking of rumors the first two are correct and the last one is wrong.
A man in his late twenties was soaking in the steamy sulfur bath.
Given his white skin thin body and long hair you might think he was a woman for a moment but he was unmistakably a man.
As he tilted his head back and looked up at the ceiling of the old castle in a daze he heard the sound of footsteps echoing through the hall.
“All preparations are complete. Master Magnus.”
Zombies dressed as butlers Ancient Undet’s unique powerful jet-black emanated from their bodies.
Magnus looked back and said in a languid voice.
“How about access to Rock Island?”
“External instructors reporting to the headquarters and even observing the BMAT test have been blocked. This is enough…”
“Did the Death Witch get involved?”
Magnus smiled contentedly and stroked his clean-shaven chin.
“You seem to care very much about your daughter.”
“With the loss of Talazze why don’t we file a formal complaint with Keygen Headquarters?”
The zombie butler corrected his monocle glasses and said.
“Of course we will be held accountable for sending power to Roch Island without permission…”
“Protest? Told me to be nasty?”
Magnus let out a sharp laugh.
“That’s not my way! What’s more they’re all in one place. In the future that little boy named Lorraine might even rule the headquarters so why would you want to do something disrespectful?”
“That’s right. I made a mistake.”
“What about the stuff?”
The zombie butler looked back and nodded.
His men brought four monsters bound with chains.
“Are these them?”
“yes.”
Level 4 danger monster ‘Hard Dail’.
All of these objects reminiscent of saltwater crocodiles had their mouths chained several times but they were all in tatters from how much they struggled.
“There was also a Harddile habitat at the site of the soon-to-be-scheduled BMAT test in Keygen. We put a curse that leaves no traces on it so you won’t find anything suspicious.”
shoot it
Magnus rose from the sulfur spring. White steam flowed from his body.
“Yes my subordinate died but I have to pay the debt properly.”
He threw a gown over his wet body and looked back.
“Alaze. Is there?”
As soon as he finished his words the floor wriggled and a flesh-like undead popped out.
[Alaze. Tallaze’s enemy. We must retaliate.]
“I know I know. I’ll make sure the enemy of Talazzeh is clear. Take some of your flesh and feed it to that monster.”
[I will follow the command of the corps commander.]
Magnus in a robe sat on the throne of the old castle and raised his wine glass.
“Then let’s wait quietly for news.”
* * *
Finally the day of the showdown.
The morning of the 3rd BMAT was bright.
“Ladies and gentlemen! You’ve waited a long time!”
On a large stage that stretched across the Kizen Campus a man in a fancy outfit holding an amplification crystal ball was shouting his throat. There were countless spectators below the stage.
“Thank you very much for coming to observe the 3rd BMAT!
The audience cheered enthusiastically. The moderator responded by bowing and bowing.
“Ahaha! Nice to meet you! No there are some familiar faces. Oh Mother you’re here again! Even if you’re a parent I’ve heard that winning a spot to attend is like picking stars in the sky but hey you’re in luck! Hahaha!”
The moderator who actively communicated with the audience and raised the atmosphere took out a card with a script written on it from his bosom.
“Now! I’m looking for another Professor Kizen to help me with the commentary for this 3rd BMAT visit!”
He said it casually but the host himself had his heart beating wildly.
‘Byulya professor no. Bye Bye Professor Please as much as that woman…!’
The moderator looked at the card praying earnestly in his heart.
“!”
His face brightened. He wanted to let out a scream of joy but he restrained his emotions like a professional.
“A significant figure has come as a commentary! Let me introduce you! Vice-President Jane Olivia who is the second in charge of Keysen Campus and is currently in charge of Class 1 A will serve you!”
At the word vice-chancellor the crowd turned upside down.
The sound of footsteps echoed across the stage. A woman with a restrained bobbed hair and a cold impression that seemed to be overflowing with chills was coming up on stage.
‘I finally got away from the late night professor!’
The moderator ran over with a excited face.
“Vice President! I’ll take you this way! Hahaha!”
As if escorting the lady the moderator politely lowered her stance to guide her but Jane just passed by. The host who had been turned away quickly straightened his body with an embarrassing expression.
Climbing to the center of the stage she held up a communication crystal ball. The audience raised their heads in anticipation of what the Vice-Chancellor of Keygen would say.
“The lighting team.”
That was her first word.
“The mana screen on the side is tilted 15 degrees to the right. The sunlight makes the audience sitting on the left uncomfortable.”
At those words a minion belonging to the lighting team started running like crazy.
“Volume team. Do I have to point out the basic of the basics of buffering the loudspeaker crystal ball?”
“I’ll have to redo the seating arrangement.”
“There are not one or two defective tongue pads. It is an issue with the safety of the students. To the senior members of the planning team.”
When the seniors came up with the expression that they had committed a mortal sin Jane turned off the amplification crystal ball and began to shake off the skin with voice. She rebuked her with such tight logic that she couldn’t even open her mouth.
‘What happened all of a sudden?’
‘I don’t know either.’
The audience was taken aback by the sudden series of events.
“Boo Vice-Chancellor! Sorry for the delay!”
The lighting man called to her said with trembling lips. She reprimanded Jane coldly.
“Are you an expert? How did you set the mana lighting settings up like this?”
“I’m so sorry! I set it like this for the 1st and 2nd tests…”
A fire burned in her eyes.
“Tell me in detail why you have to repeat the same mistakes in the present other than your troubles.”
“I’m sorry!”
“After the event everyone please come to the headquarters. It would be better to write the police report in advance.”
Jane personally directed and changed various arrangements and settings.
And the moderator standing behind him was unknowingly with his hands folded politely he couldn’t even make a sound.
‘…Are you a perfectionist this time?’
It seemed to Kizen that there were no normal people.
“We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of organizers.”
Jane bowed her head and apologized to the crowd. She actually didn’t know what the crowd was uncomfortable with but she agreed because her spirit was so fierce.
In the end it was the role of the moderator to ease the stiff atmosphere.
“Hmmmm! Hahaha! I think there was a little problem but let’s start over! I’ll take Vice-Chancellor Jane…!”
“I am commenting as a first-year professor. Please use your title as professor.”
“Ah! All right! I’ll take Professor Jane!”
Clap clap clap clap!
The audience also clapped their hands with a somewhat bewildered expression. She raised her communications crystal and spoke in a very solemn and grave voice.
“Parents and guests who attended the school’s event. Thank you very much. Our school is an elite necromancer training institution that maximizes students’ capabilities…”
speeches there.
Jane didn’t miss anything.
At the end of her speech the host said sweating profusely.
“Now now Professor Jane! I’ll take you to your seat now!”
As usual the broadcasting minion was paying attention to the moderator. She kept gesturing urgently to hang up.
‘On the topic that he couldn’t even move in front of the vice-president.’
The moderator who succeeded in getting Jane to sit in the commentary quickly proceeded with the event. She tried to call her official as if she didn’t like the table set for her but she outplayed her faster than he did.
“Okay then Professor! May I ask you to explain the 3rd BMAT exam?”
“Yes bring up the main screen.”
In response to her instructions the main screen projected a vast view of the sea.
“The theme of this third test is the sea.”
Male voice male voice.
Unlike the students the audience reacted with bewilderment as it was the first time they had heard the story.
“As you know the sea is the worst natural condition for a necromancer.”
Jane’s snapping voice echoed through the campus.
“Human beings cannot choose the battlefield and environment they want. You never know what will happen at any time and you have to be able to fight under any adverse conditions. That’s why we chose the sea as our testing ground.”
“Ahh! It’s amazing! A test at sea! So the evaluation item for this test is the students’ swimming skills?”
It was a joke to lighten the mood but Jane was glaring at him with an insect-like gaze.
“…Sorry professor.”
Even the moderator himself couldn’t believe it but he never imagined that the day would come when he would miss Professor Byeol-night.
Jane opened her mouth again.
“In this test students’ responsiveness adaptability and creativity are evaluated in an unfamiliar and difficult environment. As time is running out I will explain the test rules to the guests right away.”
As soon as she finishes her words the main screen pops! and changed Once she brushed it off she looked like the discipline of her minions was tightly held.
“Please look at the screen.”
The main screen reflected the bottom of the sea.
“Did you find anything odd?”
At Jane’s question the audience opened their eyes wide and looked at the screen.
If you look at it without thinking it was just an ordinary sea bottom cloudy and mossy. Some people found it some people couldn’t find it. Some even showed eagerness to get up and stare.
“Please make the screen bigger.”
At her words the screen caught on to a certain part.
I saw a coin embedded in the bottom. It was not easy to tell them apart because they were similar in color to the soil.
“This is the ‘coin’ that is used in the exam. The passing cutoff for this BMAT is simple. Collect ten coins from the bottom of the sea.”
“Bah at the bottom of the sea?!”
At this moment everyone except Jane thought ‘It’s not that simple at all.’
“It’s kind of like a treasure hunt!”
“…I don’t like the analogy but let’s face it. And for this exam engagement between students is allowed.”
All students participating in the test will wear a protective vest over their swimsuit. If you lose your mind or the barrier gauge reaches 0 you are out. You lose all coins and are teleported to a safe area.
A student who is out can enter the sea again after 30 minutes with a barrier gauge of 100%.
“I can’t believe it! Then I think this exam will be really competitive Professor!”
Contrary to the calm Jane the enthusiastic host raised the mood again by raising her voice.
“Students who rummage at the bottom of the sea! It will be divided into students who aim for those students! Then will the game be over for the student who retrieves ten coins?”
“It can’t be.”
she smiled.
“That’s where it starts.”
Following her instructions the screen on the main screen was divided into dozens.
“What is all that?”
“Mo a monster?”
An octopus monster that wields dozens of legs a monster that looks like a super-sized stingray that emits electricity and a monster that looks like a deep sea fish that opens its mouth at the bottom of the sea.
“Collecting 10 coins is the minimum condition to pass the test. All students who do not collect 10 coins during the 4 hours of the test will be disqualified. Students who have collected all the coins will now go to the wider sea to accumulate ‘points’. I have to go out.”
On the other side of the screen there was a picture of the monster and the number of points.
“When the monsters are eliminated the tongue pads they wear on their arms record points. The student with the most points before the test is over will be in first place.”
“Aha! I understand perfectly! Collecting coins is the basic condition to pass the exam and the overall ranking is determined by hunting sea monsters! After all it’s a keygen! There really is no such thing as an easy test!”
The presenter who had said that paused for a moment and then spoke with a shocked expression.
“Wait a minute! If a student who has collected all ten coins gets attacked by other students while catching a monster and collapses…”
“Yes all coins and points collected so far will be evaporated. You will have to come back and start picking up coins.”
“Huh! That’s a huge high risk!”
The two of them are talking about the rules and suddenly there’s a ‘waaaagh!’ from the crowd. A tremendous cheer erupted.
All of the screens were showing 847 students standing on the start line on the sea.
It was poised to start right away.
“Cheer up Elisa! Hope of Dresden!!”
“Go! Jansen! We can’t lose to Dresden!”
“The first place is again Chatel Maerda!”
“Ivory Tower sisters fighting!”
In particular cheers erupted mainly from star students. It seemed like everyone was ready to have fun. The moderator also jumped up.
“As expected rather than talking about hard rules it’s about people! We should talk about people! Then Professor! Who is the student worth paying attention to in the 3rd BMAT with the theme of the sea this time?”
She answered without any hesitation.
“There are many variables but students who excel in underwater warfare will definitely have an advantage. Elisa driving the ghost ship Laheim the lord of the snowy world and lastly.”
“finally?”
her head turned
In the center of the screen I saw a boy stretching and checking his bone armor.
