Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 480
“Bone dragon. When can you handle this?”
Simon was mesmerized by the beautiful appearance of the dragon which was hidden in the orange leaves.
Simon ended up making a lich in his freshman year.
And now in the second year Aaron set the goal of producing ‘Durahan’.
“Until the end of the second year.”
A smile crept across Simon’s lips.
“I will aim to make it. No I will definitely make it and show it to you.”
Looking at Simon’s back as he clenched his fists and made up his mind Nephthys smiled brightly.
“Yes. Cheer up our student council president!”
* * *
the next morning.
Aaron’s Intermediate Summoning Class has begun.
Following the production of the Skeleton Knight on the first day Aaron practiced the operation of the Skeleton Knight and the use technique ‘Bash’ on the second day.
The training venue was an outdoor training ground.
The students opened up a wide space and stood with the Skeleton Knights they made yesterday. The Skeleton Knights of the students were vigorously swinging each sword in the air.
“Send the jet black of the summoning magic circle and focus it with a sword.”
Aaron was tutoring among the students with his hands behind his back.
“All the monsters the main ingredient of Skeleton Knight understand the concept of Aura during their lifetime. There is no need to use a magic circle. Let the undead recall their memories of their lifetime and induce them to reproduce their skills naturally.”
Aaron turned his back and raised his voice.
“Sword again.”
Booung!
The swords of all the knights came down. Some of the knights’ swords were charred and then returned to their original state. Successful students burst into exclamations of joy.
“Good job.”
said Aaron.
“Aura is a skill that imbues mana into a sword. It is the same power as the symbol of old knights. Think of it as the undead’s pitch-darkness.”
“yes!”
“Sword again.”
The whole process afterwards was entrusted to the head assistant and Aaron looked around the students and commented on each one.
“Alibara Finesse. I know you are well versed in swordsmanship but don’t obsess over the posture of a knight. The purpose of this training is to find the sword path that the knight wielded most comfortably in his life. When the sword path is completed the bash will naturally appear. there.”
“thank you!”
“Hector Moore. You’re too rigid. Your will is too strong to keep up with the movements of yesterday’s Nitro. Adjust the tempo and dynamics.”
“yes.”
Aaron who was correcting the students one by one turned his head.
‘Simon Pollentia.’
This guy has already succeeded in ‘bash’.
The sword of the Skeleton Knight could not be shaken with black aura so it had been held for quite a long time.
‘But why is this guy so energetic today?’
Simon’s two eyes looking forward were constantly emitting serious light.
Aaron knew what those eyes were.
It was the same eye that thought of the lich alone when others made skeleton mages.
I thought it was after the academic life had progressed a little more that he was ‘triggered’ but what happened last night? Or even a change of heart?
Aaron curious in his heart approached him.
“Simon Pollentia.”
I called his name but Simon was so focused that he couldn’t understand what he heard right next to him.
Aaron waited quietly and with the chief assistant’s cry of ‘one sword’ the knight’s sword controlled by Simon came down.
Booung!
It was nice to see the cleanly drawn trajectory.
It wasn’t a perfect posture because it was a knight with a bad back but it was showing the best results in the given situation.
Simon finally gets out of his concentration and says ‘Whoa’ and wipes the sweat from his forehead.
“Simon Pollentia.”
Simon looked back in surprise.
“Ah yes! Professor!”
“The ‘bash’ that the knight uses is a striker that gathers jet black into lines and explodes them all at once.
“Ah that’s…”
Simon scratched the back of his neck.
“Actually I ended up looking for the trajectory that best suits my night.”
Aaron’s eyes widened in surprise.
Did you set a creative direction on your own without anyone else’s advice?
Soon after he returned to his nonchalant expression and turned his head.
“That’s it.”
“?”
Aaron walked aside without saying more and corrected Toto’s knight swordsmanship.
* * *
After practice a 30-minute break was given. Aaron who was sitting on a chair at the training ground was looking at Simon with his strange eyes.
‘At this point it’s scary because I’ve worked so hard. What happened?’
Even during the break Simon’s training continued. When Simon ordered the Skeleton Knight to turn her knight’s body turned like a top.
The effect of bash must have been added to it but this time it was a pitch-black top.
Toto threw a stone over it and it broke! The stone was ground away with a sound. I could see Simon and Toto clapping their palms in cheers.
“Oh Toto! Look at this too. I made a new technique.”
“What is it?”
“It’s still in the experimental stage.”
Simon opened a subspace towards the front.
Love love love!
As soon as the subspace opened three skeleton knights passed through it tearing the atmosphere apart while spinning like a top.
Like the first Skeleton Knight it wasn’t a level where only the waist was spinning around. From her toes to her upper body her whole body was spinning.
“Wow that’s great!”
Toto screamed. The students who were taking a break in their respective seats looked at it with their eyes shining.
However as if the stopping motion was not yet perfect the bodies of the knights were smashed and flew around at the same time as the rotation. Simon ran to pick up the pieces and Toto helped with it.
“Simon! Were there three more knights?”
Toto asked as he came running with the bone in his arms. Simon glanced at Aaron and the other assistants before whispering.
“Actually I bought it from Rochester yesterday. To test this technique.”
“aha!”
“The name of the skill was also roughly decided. Blade Storm?”
“How about Whirlwind?”
Aaron who was watching from a distance sighed and covered his forehead.
‘…Crazy man.’
and after a while
While Simon and Toto went to the bathroom students started spinning their Skeleton Knights one after another.
A strange trend was going around in the Summoning Department class.
* * *
Morning practice ends here. Aaron took his students back to the classroom. He is good at practicing Skeleton Knight but he had to progress according to the textbook progress.
“Come to think of it there was a common question I received from some students yesterday.”
said Aaron tapping the board with chalk.
“The question was what the term ‘tier’ meant when we said that we were going to make ‘Durahan’ a 3-tier undead headless knight.”
Students who had been studying in advance such as Aseraj and Hector burst into laughter.
And Simon was just rolling his eyes.
‘I don’t know either.’
“quietly.”
At Aaron’s words the surroundings were enveloped in silence again.
“It’s a concept that wasn’t covered in the 1st year Summoning Course so it’s only natural that students don’t know. I’ll explain.”
He wrote the word Tier on the blackboard.
“As you all know it is a term that means ‘level’ or ‘level’. I don’t really like it but it’s used a lot in the field so let’s point it out.”
The chalk in Aaron’s hand danced back and forth across the blackboard.
“Tier in Summoning is a slightly different concept than ‘grade’. All of you there must be a maximum number of undead that you can control at once.”
Simon nodded.
In Simon’s case if he didn’t use the power of the corps commander he could handle the current 8 summoned undead at the same time. It was around the 2nd semester of the 1st year that I achieved the 8th class but there was hardly an increase here.
Of course it was possible to make it look like it was dealing with a larger number of undead by cross-operating and if you mobilize the cloud and use the ‘SS’ technology you can deal with 24 undead and more.
“I’m in the 5th.”
I heard Toto’s voice.
“I’m in the 8th.”
said Fitzgerald raising his spectacles.
While the students were buzzing Aaron resumed his explanation.
“The maximum number of undead that can be dealt with with thoughts differs greatly from person to person. And for example let’s say there is a necromancer who can deal with up to 10 undead at the same time.”
He sketched numbers on Aaron’s chalkboard.
“This necromancer can control 10 tier 1 undead 5 tier 2 undead and 3 tier 3 undead.”
‘I see!’
Simon’s eyes widened rapidly.
‘The number of thoughts required to control the undead!’
“I’ll have a rough idea.”
he said lowering the chalk.
“An undead with a strong will and originality consumes a lot of energy to manipulate with thoughts. In the case of undead like this even if you manage only a few you will not be able to deal with other undead.”
The students nodded their heads in unison.
“But as I said at the beginning I don’t like this concept and term. I don’t want to instill any prejudice in my students. First tier is a relative concept.”
Dealing with undead with thoughts is itself a matter related to mental strength so there may be differences among individuals.
Assuming that there are necromancers who deal with up to 10 equally some can deal with 2nd tier 5 and some can deal with 2nd tier 5 and 1st tier more. There are even necromancers who require less thought to deal with Tier 4 than Tier 3.
“Don’t take it as an absolute concept and think that the higher the tier the harder it is to handle but the stronger the undead. Second the maximum number of undead that can be dealt with does not represent the strength of the summoner.”
He wrote the person’s name on the chalk.
“For example Renji Mahomes an active crow is a professional necromancer but can only control up to 3 undead. But that alone has made him the top. there is.”
The students started taking notes with excited faces.
“Third and last tier has various variables. Some people know and some don’t but ‘lich’ is Tier 1 undead. It means that it is the same tier as normal zombies and skeletons. But are liches and skeletons the same? Of course not. .”
Aaron looked around.
“The reason why this is possible is because of the unique characteristics of a lich with a heart called ‘Life Vessel’ outside. And there is also a Tier 0 Undead.”
“Tier 0!”
“what is that?”
At the student’s question Aaron grinned and wrote down seven letters.
“Ancient undead.”
“…!”
Simon felt his heart race.
“These ancient beings do not need the thoughts of a necromancer. They are also beings that can treat other undead as their own. Likewise.”
On it was written the words ‘Brigade Commander’.
“Regardless of this concept corps commanders can handle thousands or tens of thousands of corps-type undead. Regardless of the number.”
“Wow…!”
“It’s not fair.”
Hearing Toto’s grunt Simon broke into a cold sweat with a smile on his face.
“Of course they say that corps commanders don’t rely too much on the Undead troops led by the Ancient Undead. They say that they handle the summoned Undead under their direct control with near perfection.”
Aaron looked at the clock on the wall.
“Time is running out. Do you have any other questions about the class?”
While the students were quiet someone’s hand went up.
It was Simon.
“This is Simon Pollentia.”
Aaron nodded and Simon stood up from his seat and opened his mouth with serious eyes.
“It’s a bit of an odd question but what tier undead is the Bone Dragon?”
The students’ murmur stopped. Aaron looked at Simon with a strange gaze and answered.
“The minimum Bone Dragon starts at Tier 10. They say that there are Bone Dragons that people can’t handle.”
Simon’s heart beat like crazy.
Even if you make it yet you can’t handle it.
That was the Bone Dragon.
‘Good. I have more enthusiasm because I have a firm goal!’
Simon who sat down burned with enthusiasm. And Aaron who was watching it from afar hardened his impression.
‘No way that crazy guy.’
I just wished it wasn’t.
