Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 463
“Can I sit next to you?”
To Simon’s question Lorraine gave a slight nod.
“huh.”
drooling.
Simon pulled out a chair put down his bag and sat down.
I ran hard on the golem board but it was a little hot. He took off his school uniform jacket and spread it on the back of a chair undoing the necktie that was tied around his neck.
The slender nape of his neck was revealed through the small beads of sweat. Lorraine who had only rolled her eyes and looked at them returned them to their original position and said.
“What’s in your bag?”
“Oh this?”
Simon lifted the bag he had set down on the floor.
“I brought it out of habit but in fact I don’t have anything but a quill and ink.”
“Because there was no notice about which textbooks to buy.”
“Yes the professor will tell you today.”
Simon looked towards Lorraine this time.
I see her long eyelashes and ruby-like eyes as she looks forward and talks. Even during breaks there is no distraction.
Lorraine herself didn’t like it very much but after all she seemed two or three years older.
She is much more mature than her senior third-year Benya. A girl who looks better in a static and black suit rather than a lively schoolgirl uniform.
Simon’s gaze which had been directed to Lorraine’s face turned this time to the necklace she was wearing around her neck.
A silver padlock dangling like an ornament from the end of a choke necklace. The design is a bit different for an accessory.
‘There are many other pretty decorations but it’s a lock. Is there a reason?’
Simon remembered the necklace that sealed the power of the saint that Lethe wore in the Holy Federation. It was the same chalk necklace design. Although there was no lock.
What happened between Lorraine and Nephthys during the vacation?
“Simon.”
Simon shook his head in surprise.
“Oh yes!”
“Congratulations on becoming the student council president.”
Simon replied “Thank you” and smiled awkwardly.
“I was supposed to be you.”
“No. You look better than me.”
It didn’t seem like he was just saying hello. Calm and plain speech. She really thought so.
“The student council armband?”
“I put it in my bag.”
Simon took out an armband from the front of his bag and showed it.
“Professor Jane told me not to reveal that I am a student council member during class. He told me to come to class with the attitude and mindset of a purely student.
She nodded.
“Yeah. Professor Jane is wise as expected.”
“that’s right.”
“….”
I don’t know if it’s because it’s the first day of class but I’m still at odds with Lorraine. The situation itself where she is talking with Lorraine in the same class is also difficult to adapt to.
This time Simon brought up the topic first.
“Lorraine I have a question for you.”
“?”
“Why did you choose Summoning Department?”
She was a typical ‘supernatural all-in’ type among many necromancer types.
There was a high tendency to rely on superpowers rather than pure black magic in combat or whatever so I thought about going to the Dark Mechanics Department.
“In the first place my ability is a summoning type.”
“…That’s right?”
“Yes. Apply superpowers to summoned creatures to strengthen them or summon summoned creatures made up of supernatural powers.”
‘Come to think of it.’
I remembered the image of her endowing her own Skeleton Horse with superpowers and strengthening it into a large red Skeleton Horse.
And the red flash that opened and fired the portal her main weapon wasn’t actually fired by Lorraine but by an unknown creature inside the portal.
“I thought it was appropriate to choose the Department of Summoning in order to broaden the spectrum of my abilities.”
“It certainly is.”
“Then aren’t you curious about this?”
A smirking voice came from behind. Looking behind her there was an ivory-haired female student Serene with an alluring smile.
“Why did I choose Summoning Department?”
Lorraine’s face which had been kind immediately became wary. Simon replied with a wry smile.
“That’s why I told you yesterday.”
“Oh was it? What is it?”
Serene urged as if she had been waiting for those words.
Simon remembered the reason but his voice faded in embarrassment.
“Uh um. The standard for value judgment… what did you say?”
She took a step closer and grabbed the back of Simon’s chair.
“I’ll tell you for sure.”
Then he slowly leaned back. Her face came before my eyes as the delicate scent of roses flooded in.
“The standard for my value judgment is-“
A secret whispering voice tickled my ear.
“Is there anything you want? Is there anything else? That’s all.”
Simon’s face turned red. Serene straightened her back as if she was very satisfied with Simon who was stiff and unable to move.
“Okay?”
She smiled like a fox and took the empty seat to Simon’s left.
He immediately sat down with his legs crossed arrogantly his arms resting on the armrests of his chair and his chin raised. She feels a complete my way the complete opposite of the neatly seated Lorraine.
‘It’s a start again.’
Simon closed his eyes.
Lorraine was glaring at Cerne and Cerne didn’t budge as if provoking her. The students sitting around were also looking at the two female students alternately.
Really they were the two people who were the focus of attention wherever they went.
Tadadat!
At that time Toto who had just solved an urgent business came into the classroom. I was looking around to find Simon with whom I went to school.
“Toto here it is.”
Seeing this Simon kindly waved his hand.
“Ah Simon! He was there…!”
After saying that Toto’s body stiffened like a stone statue. Lorraine and Serene who occupied seats on both sides of Simon saw him.
‘omg!’
Lorraine only saw Simon waving his hand. Toto who was afraid of schoolgirls seemed coldly glaring at her.
And Serene’s gaze beside him was even more stark.
‘….’
Eyes like bugs.
‘Muh I’m scared!’
Toto whose phobia of schoolgirls got worse after experiencing Meirin a few times shuddered. Simon didn’t know that and was urging him to come quickly.
‘Kheuk. wow that’s great too How can I talk to scary girls like that?’
Toto quietly walked over and took a seat behind Simon feeling like he was sitting on a cushion of thorns.
I saw two girls with black and white hair right in front of me.
“hi.”
Then Lorraine the dark-haired side turned to greet him.
Udang-tang-tang!
Toto who was so surprised fell over in his chair. Just as the embarrassed Lorraine was about to get up Toto stood up first at the speed of light.
“Oh how are you!”
Nephthys’s daughter talking to me!
As Toto bowed and bowed Lorraine waved her hand in embarrassment.
“Please don’t do that. We’re both sophomores.”
“Yes! No yes!”
“Oh noisy.”
Cerne turned around and still stared at him with eyes that looked like bugs.
“Are you going to turn me into a monkey?”
Toto felt good about going to the bathroom.
If he had been in a hurry his eyes would have made his pants wet.
“Stop it Serene.”
Simon dried up. Then as if she had never done that she let out a pretty smile and a soft voice.
“Simon Simon would you like to go to Rochester for the weekend? Or Langersteen would be fine.”
Toto wondered how a person’s voice could be so different.
And Lorraine reacted sharply as if she had heard a sensitive word.
“Langerstine? Are you going to leave the island without permission again?”
“No you’re the teacher. Why do you interfere with Simon and me?”
The two were about to confront each other again when a student ran in from the hallway.
“Professor is coming!”
The students went back to their seats. After a while I heard the characteristic footsteps dragging slippers.
Drooling!
The door opened and Aaron with his messy hair today appeared dragging slippers. After that the teaching assistants came running and stood up in an engrossed rest posture.
“nice to meet.”
Aaron said in a languid voice.
“Some people know some don’t. My name is Aaron Deia who will be teaching summoning this year.”
Applause poured in from everywhere.
Aaron walked over to the blackboard and lazily scribbled the words ‘2nd Year Summoning Studies’. With one hand poked in his pocket he wrote with only the other hand with a troubled look on the world still the same.
“Take it easy.”
He said as he drooped the hand holding the chalk.
“Today I’m only going to finish with a simple orientation.”
Simon thought the cannons were firing from all directions. Wow everywhere! and cheers of joy erupted.
Aaron added the word ‘orientation’ on the blackboard under ‘2nd grade summoning’.
“I have to go in hard from the first class like a kid but there are some circumstances at school.”
He pricked the blackboard with chalk.
“Tomorrow there is another big event called the entrance ceremony so I’ll take a break. Think of the real classes starting the day after tomorrow. But don’t procrastinate too much.”
“yes!”
Aaron whirled the chalk and wrote another letter after the intermediate black magic.
“There are three regular major classes in the Summoning Department for the first semester.”
Intermediate Major Summoning
Summon Jang Songhak
Summoning Material Science
Aaron stopped the chalk and looked at the students.
“The major classes in the first semester of the second year are all ‘required subjects’. And all the professors of other major subjects are veterans with great careers that are incomparable to mine. Come and learn.”
Basically the ‘intermediate major black magic’ taught by Aaron took center stage focused on textbooks and the other two subjects felt like teaching more specialized and deepened genres there.
In addition it seemed that classes by professional necromancers or external scholars were often held in order to improve major competency.
“To briefly explain the class outline the summon I will be discussing in the first class is ‘Skeleton Knight’.”
Skeleton Knight!
Simon’s eyes sparkled at the appearance of the new undead. Toto and some second-year students stuck out their tongues with a ‘hard’ expression.
“You guys are definitely experts in one field now. I believe you can easily handle something like a skeleton knight. Check the printout for more details.”
Teaching assistants quickly set down printed materials on students’ desks.
Simon glanced through a few pages quickly before opening his mouth.
‘What preparations are needed…’
The list was packed full of materials to prepare for class. Textbooks materials for Skeleton Knight as well as mana oil bone glue slime by-products and many other materials were needed.
‘It seems that the initial start-up cost is high.’
Of course there are things that you can use for a long time once you buy them but they are consumables and need to be replenished someday. The faces of some students who checked the preparations were also darkening.
“As I said securing materials is an important ability as a Necromancer.”
Aaron continued to speak in a languid voice.
“Make a hole for money to come in regularly and secure a logistics route to bring in the materials cheaply. Don’t just think about playing today and tomorrow build this kind of infrastructure. Your identity and credit as a second year student in Keygen are what you think. more powerful than ever.”
A student raised his hand.
“What if it’s a regular money hole?”
Aaron reached out.
“Hey Simon Pollentia for example registers a thesis at Pentamonium at the end of the first year and receives royalties from it.”
All of a sudden the eyes gathered around him. Simon shook his head in embarrassment.
“As a keygen you can get sponsorship from nobles or you can exhibit it at an exhibition or sell your work directly to Rochester merchants. Whatever it is get a job as soon as possible. Don’t go into debt to follow classes and end up broke. . Especially don’t hesitate to lend a hand to your parents.”
Silence fell around. Aaron’s eyes widened.
“To you parents having your children go to Kizen is the greatest hope of all. You will never see your children unable to be free from Kizen due to lack of support. I have seen many cases where the mansion is being sold after returning home to a pile of debt.”
The students gulped down their saliva.
“I’ll say it again. The identity and trust of being a second-year student in Keyzen are stronger than you think. If you can’t make a hole for money to come in come to me.
Simon was lucky that he had done Israfil’s mission. He still had 10000 gold in his hand.
“I have to run for a part-time job tomorrow.”
Lorraine sighed in the seat next to her. It seemed that she too was not enough with her pocket money.
“It’s the price of gum.”
Serene was laughing nonchalantly.
“Uh uh…”
On the other hand Toto was experiencing an earthquake in his pupil. Simon looked back.
“I can lend you some if you’re short of money.”
“Oh no! It’s okay!”
Toto quickly waved his hand.
“I can’t cause that much trouble! I think I can do something about this!!”
“Ummm is that so?”
So the orientation class was over.
Students were under financial pressure but that didn’t stop them from enjoying the fun of the end of class. I can’t be happier because I’m resting until tomorrow.
Simon who had escaped from the classroom was talking with Lorraine and Serne while walking.
“hey!!”
A hand suddenly emerged from the crowd and grabbed Simon’s wrist. Lorraine and Serene hesitated.
“Maylin!”
Mei Lin wearing the student council armband on her right arm tugged at his wrist. She looked at her Lorraine and apologized.
“Hi Lorraine! I’m sorry! I’m in a hurry so I’ll get Simon!”
“Ah yes.”
Lorraine waved her hand with a puzzled face. Serene shouted with a very sad expression.
“Oh Meirin! Can’t you see Seri?”
“Seri is crazy to freeze to death! Get out!!”
She grabbed Simon’s wrist and ran. Simon also ran wildly.
“Maylin! What’s happening all of a sudden?”
she shouted grinning.
“What is it? It’s a student council call! Hurry up and wear an armband!”
* * *
student council room.
“Welcome Simon!”
When I opened the door to the student council room and came inside Kamibarez who was organizing the documents smiled brightly.
“Hey~ Are you here?”
Dick who was sitting on the couch and leafing through the entries looked up. Both wore student council armbands on their right arms.
Meilin who came in after her clapped her hands.
“Now let’s work! We have to finish the preparations for the entrance ceremony today.”
“yes!”
“okay.”
Everyone got up from their seats and packed their belongings when a knocking sound was heard from behind.
“Student Council excuse me!”
It was Jane’s head assistant who poked her head out into the student council room.
“Teacher Assistant!”
“Originally Professor Jane should have come in person but now I’m going into an emergency meeting. Everyone please follow me for a while.”
The four of them left the student council room and followed the head assistant.
“Teacher Eon… No Assistant Teacher! Where are we going? I have a lot of work today so I don’t have time.”
At Meilin’s question the head assistant smiled.
“There must be not enough manpower to prepare all of the preparations with the four of us right?
Everyone’s eyes widened at the word direct.
“Wow! You can use our minions too?”
