Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 282
During the whole day’s coach trip Simon got into the habit of resting his chin on his chin and looking at the scenery outside the carriage.
As time passed a change took place in the boringly desolate and vast brown land. The green light increased sparsely and trees and bushes began to grow thick.
“When you say neutral zone everyone thinks of barren wasteland or desert!”
Seiwir brushed his bangs with the back of his hand and explained proudly.
“That’s kind of a stereotype. In fact there are a lot of areas where desertification hasn’t happened yet!”
Sayyur explained that the more you go to the center the more desert and the more you go out the more forests you see.
In other words 7th group and Seiwir were heading to the outskirts.
During such a day-long carriage trip Simon had to listen to the hundreds of achievements of Seiwir.
Dick fell in love with Seiwir’s heroic story and became an avid fan and Meirin also worked hard to get good grades so he tended to agree. Kami Varez was smiling and only nodding his head.
Not so little time has passed.
“Im here.”
You have arrived at your destination. This village named ‘Kelso’ seemed like a mix of city and jungle.
Whether the architecture has developed a brick building made with proper masonry was visible. However the plants here were so strong that their buds were sticking out through the cracks in the tiles and between the bricks. Large vines entwine the entire building.
Even the people who live in this village seem to have given up on getting rid of the ever-growing plants.
“Ugh I think my butt has flattened.”
Dick sighed and got out of the wagon. The other members of the crew followed suit and straightened up.
In the meantime my whole body was stiff from folding my body in a narrow place.
“Now agents. Attention please!”
Seiwir focused everyone’s attention and spoke in a serious voice.
“There is a candidate for a saint in this city.”
At that word tension surged. The four of them also nodded their heads with serious faces.
“If we’re a little late priests could already be lurking in this city. But don’t worry too much.”
Seiwir ran his bangs through the back of his hand showing his shiny teeth.
“This Seiwir will block any white magic!”
“As expected Agent Seiwir!”
“Follow your search and focus only on finding your target. Under no circumstances do you run into the priests or attack them first.”
“yes!”
“Then let’s begin the mission.”
Sayir took the lead and gave a thumbs up.
“The mission that the future of our Dark Alliance is at stake!”
“Yes!”
Dick lifted his arms raising the mood.
“…Until the future of the Dark Federation.”
Merlin muttered quietly.
Anyway the operation started. Seiwir clung to the wall of the building and walked away muffled by footsteps.
Hiding himself in the shade of a building he peeked out his head looked around and gestured as if it was okay to come. The four of them also quickly followed suit.
chuck!
Back in the alley he opened the lid of the trash can with a cautious face attached to the wall of the building.
“Be careful. There might be a trap set by the Priests.”
Meirin made a puzzled expression.
“Are you in the trash can?”
Seiwir moved distractedly picking up trash and discarded clothes on the floor and opened everything that could be opened.
Dick who claimed to be his ardent assistant followed suit behind the scenes.
“I’m trying to get a little bit wiser.”
Mei Lin who was sitting on her knees together lifted the trash with her index finger and said.
“Isn’t securing candidates for saints the top priority? Instead of wasting time with such nonsense go to your destination right away-“
“I found it.”
When Seiwir opened the lid of the trash can a pure white sacred magic circle was drawn.
“Huh? G-Is it really there? In the trash?”
As Meirin approached with a surprised face Seiwir shouted.
“Be careful!”
Suddenly in the magic circle of the trash can Tung! With a sound the Holy Bullet was fired.
“Wow!”
The moment she freaked out and stumbled Seiwir jumped in front of her like a picture and spread a defensive magic circle to block it.
“Be careful.”
Sayir said.
The Holy Bullet did not disappear even after hitting the defensive magic circle wriggling like a living creature.
“It’s like white magic with an ego. There might be a high-ranking priest among the enemies.”
Sayir spread his palms.
“Let’s seal it.”
Swoop!
A pitch-black arm protrudes from the magic circle grabs the divinity inserts it into the magic circle and then snaps! disappeared with a sound.
“Are you okay? Agent Meirin.”
He said extending his hand toward the fallen Meirin.
She nodded and took his hand and got up.
“I’m sorry.”
“No. You may make mistakes. But from now on please follow my instructions more closely.”
Sayyur and Dick stepped forward again and Kamivarez and Simone approached her.
“Are you okay? Meirin.”
“Ah yes.”
she let out an embarrassing laugh.
“Hey after all a great person… is that?”
“He must be a great person to be the one chosen by Keygen as a mentor!”
While the two girls were talking Simon had a serious expression on his face.
‘I couldn’t react at all.’
To be precise I didn’t even feel the divinity flying in front of my eyes before the reaction.
‘… I thought that my ability to sense divinity improved through the class with Professor Farahhan.’
Simon took a step with doubt.
Sayir was spinning around and around.
Saying that traces of the priests were found they went into another alley or pointed at a passer-by and said that that person might be a priest then went back into the distance.
Then he found his destination a house where a girl who was a candidate for sainthood lived.
“From here on we have to break through head-on.”
Seiwir spoke in a heavy voice like a commander ahead of war.
“Priests will definitely attack. I will be in charge of attack and defense by myself so you guys just look ahead and move to your destination. Are you ready?”
“yes!”
“Powerful white magic might come flying. Get as low as possible cover your head and run. Then.”
Tadat!
Seyir is out of the alley.
“Run!”
With Dick in the lead Meirin Kamibarez and Simon ran in that order.
The street was empty and it was a straight line to the house where the girl was.
“Hmm? What you’re eating porridge?”
Before Dick uttered that one word.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooh!
The attack has indeed begun. Brilliant flashes flickered in the sky and divine projectiles began bombarding the ground indiscriminately.
“Quaaaaaaa!”
“Huh!”
The crew covered their heads and ran. The sight of the divine projectiles coming down in a row seemed like countless shooting stars pouring down.
“No way!”
And Seiwir’s performance began. He appeared flapping his long sleeves.
“I won’t let you touch my juniors!”
Seiwir’s movements were truly splendid.
She shrank and appeared next to running students spread a defensive magic circle to block divine shells or blew away priests running from the alleyway with a single gesture.
“Keep running!”
As he swung his arm the floor rose like a wall blocking the holy bombardment. A large number of magic circles containing ‘exorcism’ were spread out in the sky but they were destroyed and scattered in the air with one gesture of his hand.
“Wow wow! Really crazy! Agent Seiwir must be at least Professor Kizen!”
Dick was so good his mouth was about to tear. Meirin and Kamibarez were busy running with their heads down.
Simon who was running in the back taking care of his teammates blinked his eyes with an expressionless face.
‘It’s obviously a very dangerous situation. Why is there no tension?’
To the extent that he wondered if his mind had gone out of order Simon was calmly contemplating the situation himself.
In other words it felt like I was on a walk in the neighborhood not on a battlefield.
“It’s all here!”
Dick ran over and grabbed the doorknob.
“It’s locked inside!”
“Get out of the way commoner!”
Mei Lin created a magic circle in her palm froze part of the door and then smashed it with her kick.
Four men immediately burst into the house.
“Oh it seems that no one is there?”
It was a very old and shabby house. The four of them scattered to search the house but it was already empty.
Then I heard Seiwir’s voice through the window.
“Ha ha ha! You’re running away like a tail! I Vengeance’s strongest necromancer! Realize the greatness of Seiwir!”
He shouted in a playful tone and leisurely entered the house.
“What about the target?”
“I don’t think he’s here.”
The moment Simon heard the report he saw Seiwir’s first definite bewilderment look on his face.
“Oh no? There’s no way that’s the case…”
Dick said quickly.
“They’ve already been kidnapped by the Priests! That’s for sure! There were so many that we were attacked earlier!”
“….”
But Seiwir was stunned as if he had no time to answer.
“Agent Seyir?”
“Oh um! Nothing.”
Seiwir suddenly raised his head and said.
“I’m going after the fleeing Priests. Agents please get information about where the girl went.”
Meilin took a step forward.
“Agent? Given the circumstances it’s only natural that you were kidnapped by the Priests. Wouldn’t it be better if we all went after them together?”
“Absolutely not…! Hmmmm I’m alone enough to go after the Priest so please follow my instructions here.”
Seiwir left without saying that and ran outside.
The four of you were left alone.
‘Mmm.’
Simon glanced outside. Even though the holy bombing fell and it was a mess the scenery of the village was strangely peaceful.
“Haaa I don’t understand it but the mentor’s instructions are absolute.”
Meilin crossed her arms.
“As the agent said let’s scatter and investigate.”
“Okay! What did you say the girl’s name was?”
“Sasha.”
The three dispersed to gather information.
“Simon?”
Kamibarez who was about to leave the house looked back. She waved her hand as Simon smiled.
“I’ll search this house some more.”
“Ah yes!”
After Kamibarez left Simon inspected the house leisurely.
[Khehehe! That’s ridiculous!]
Peer’s voice echoed in my head.
[Didn’t the boy also get a sense that Seiwir was a clown?]
‘I have a feeling but there is no solid evidence yet.’
Simon had something else to worry about.
He remembered Seiwir’s face which had been embarrassed by the fact that the girl had disappeared.
‘Whatever it is this mission we’ve taken on feels real. I’m committed to this now.’
[Khehehe! It’s good to eat the luxurious cake later!]
First of all finding a girl who was a candidate for a sainthood was an urgent priority. Simon searched the house for clues.
‘leaf?’
In the house you can see a lot of leaves and branches along with hair. Even if it was indoors.
And tattered clothes a teddy bear with one eye missing. An old house where the wind blows in.
I was able to get several pieces of information.
The girl who lived in this house is poor. She lived alone without her parents. But she has signs that someone else has come and gone besides her.
Simon looked around and headed toward the house’s storage room. The warehouse door was locked.
“Overlord. Please.”
Kwak!
Tentacle blades protruding from the air shattered the door. Simon went inside.
“…!”
Simon’s expression darkened.
[Why boy?]
Simon opened the abandoned burlap bag in the corner. He saw all sorts of syringes and strange vials.
‘What the hell happened in this house?’
“Simon!”
Then I heard Kamibarez’s voice.
When Simon came out to the living room she clung to the window.
“Please come for a moment! May Lin found an important clue!”
