Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 588
The five battle wagons carrying Kizen students were passing through the monsters and slowly moving towards the Gahal stronghold.
And some distance away from the scene.
“…Finally got through.”
There were two men watching them.
“Your work is very different.”
The butcher who was perched on a rock muttered as he clashed his two kitchen knives. He was still wearing boots and a bloody apron.
“You said you’d only take the blue hair off over there?”
“The boy’s response was good.”
The one-eyed gentleman with only one eye left on his face lowered his telescope and said.
“As originally planned we will have no choice but to catch them in the fortress.”
“I do not care.”
The butcher turned the cleaver and inserted it into the waistband next to the apron. In front of him lay a mimic neatly slaughtered.
“Maybe it’s because he doesn’t have any flesh the taste of the bitter is really bad.”
“I don’t know what it is but I’m sorry.”
The butcher walked slowly and looked in the direction of the light.
“It is the last stronghold of the Gahal tribe.”
He smirked and crossed his arms.
“Take students to places like that? Keyzen’s teaching method is still incomprehensible.”
“That’s not unusual. They say they drop sleeping children in the middle of a battlefield.”
“But I mean.”
The butcher moved his gaze and stared at the countless swarms of monsters besieging the fortress.
“If it’s a monster of this size wouldn’t it end on its own if you just leave it alone? I don’t think there’s any room for us to get involved.”
“Originally the Gahal people would have perished here.”
The eyes of the one-eyed gentleman rolled.
“But things have changed. 52 second-year Kizens two professors Kizens and even the teaching assistants they brought. It’ll be safer there than most of the great estates’ forts.”
The butcher let out a grim laugh.
“Aren’t you overestimating the kids who came to play war?”
“Accurate analysis of the enemy is essential.”
The one-eyed gentleman turned his head.
“But that much our preparations are perfect.”
Keeee-
Kiyi-
Nearby mimics were drinking potions of red liquid. Other imitators followed suit and their actions were spreading.
Red breath flowed from the corners of the monsters’ mouths and their pupils widened.
The monsters were being strengthened.
“Good good.”
The butcher ran his bloody fingertips across my tongue.
“Let’s enjoy the party.”
* * *
The distance between the wagon and the fortress grew closer. Grerion who was on the first train stuck his head out the window.
“Teachers! Raise the flag!”
“yes!”
The instructors hung a flag with Kizen’s pattern crossed on the wagon and a flag with a blue background.
The students stared at the firmly closed gate with impatient faces.
“…What will happen if you don’t open the castle gate over there?”
“What’s going on? It’s all going to die.”
Hearing the story Eshu smiled.
“If you die I’ll make you undead. Zombie? Skeleton? Pick and choose.”
“The options seem like garbage. At least try making them rich.”
“I’m glad I didn’t use it as a chimera’s butt.”
Ahaha!
A situation where the atmosphere is depressed after a big battle. In this case Eshu’s lively personality is helpful.
I was able to find myself smiling as the tension was relieved before I knew it even though I was bothered by her chattering words in one ear.
Her words make us not to forget the moments of everyday life no matter where we are. The students also said a word to see if their tension was relieved.
“Wow look at the archers on the wall over there. There are a lot of jingles!”
“…Uh won’t they shoot at us?”
Of course there were people like Toto who felt a sense of crisis by buying it. Simon gave him a light slap on the thigh to help him relax.
coo goo-!
Fortunately the gates of the Gahal fortress began to open after checking the flag on the other side.
“Let’s open it!”
“Go in!”
The students were relieved and cheered up.
Passing through the narrow moat and bridge the five wagons safely entered the fort. The carriage stopped and the students got off one by one.
People were coming from the other side as well. A group of Gahal warriors and a mature man with exceptional armor decorations.
On this side Professor of Summoning Materials Science Grerion stepped forward as the representative.
“Ha ha ha! Long time no see!”
“ⴋⴘØⴆⴇÐ!”
The two of them hugged each other warmly and talked about each other.
Simon couldn’t understand what was being said but to his surprise Grerion seemed to know the Gahal language.
Grerion looked back at the students with puzzled expressions and kindly translated them.
“They say thank you for coming to help in such a faraway place.”
“!”
The students also greeted the Gahal people by indiscriminately spitting out foreign languages they knew. At the end Eshu said ‘Hwiba Hwiba’ but the meaning was unknown.
Still the universal language the handshake worked. Students with good affinity held hands with the soldiers or even bumped into fists.
“Professor Aaron.”
“yes.”
The professors had a serious meeting for about 10 minutes. Grerion reacted rather strongly and Aaron calmed him down a bit.
After a while as if a conclusion had been reached Aaron came forward.
“All attention.”
The students immediately shut up and looked at Aaron.
“According to the Gahal tribe the monsters are planning to attack at dawn. The students stand guard on the wall in 3 shifts and the rest rest inside. “
“yes!”
“And it’s about the chain of command.”
Aaron’s head assistant came over and opened the box. It contained a communication crystal orb.
“Basically it is a free combat policy but a minimum communication and command system is required. I will select a student commander.”
Aaron lifted the red orb from the communication orb.
“There are many talents but…”
Aaron’s eyes looking around stopped at one.
“There is a student council president in our department.”
All the other students’ eyes were also on Simon.
Hector who had been secretly looking forward to it tutted and clicked his tongue.
“May I say something?”
Simon raised his hand.
“good night.”
“Usually I’d be in charge but this time it’s a training camp for departments.”
After saying that Simon pointed to the side.
“So I think it’s right for the department representative to lead.”
“…!”
Hector glared at Simon with wide eyes.
It was a gaze that said what kind of plan is this again?
“That’s an appropriate opinion.”
Aaron also nodded and threw the red communication crystal ball.
“Today’s student commander is Hector Moore.”
Hector’s pupils which received the red communication crystal ball were shaking slightly.
“If a battle breaks out move according to the instructions of the student commander. Of course you’ll want ‘Guardian’ which is the material of Dullahan but don’t overdo it. In particular keep in mind that chasing the Guardian down from the wall is suicide. .”
“yes!”
Aaron crossed his arms.
“Faculty will communicate with you if there is a problem. Stop what you are doing and follow the instructions of the faculty as your top priority. That’s all.”
* * *
The process went quickly.
Assistant instructors wrote the shift and the 1st shift team went up the wall first. All the other students were ushered into the Gahal barracks.
“Hello~”
Eshu waved his hand. The children whose lower bodies were roughly covered with a cloth shyly waved their hands and played among themselves as if they were ashamed.
There were many women and children in the barracks. They wondered why they didn’t get out of the fortress where a war was about to break out but they all seemed determined to not abandon their hometown.
The warriors all went out so there were many rooms left. Students could go anywhere and relax.
A warm bonfire was burning in the middle and smoke was escaping through holes that served as pillars in the ceiling.
Simon and the 10 trillion members also occupied a room as four.
“You idiot! Are you really sane or not?”
Eshu was bandaging Toto’s arm.
“Why are you running out to save the chairman?
“I’m sorry Eshu. Pa my arm hurts!”
Toto cried.
And at a distance from the two of them Simon and Lorraine were sitting side by side.
“Eshu didn’t you rush out to save Toto too?”
said Lorraine with a mischievous smile. Eshu’s expression showed a chill but she soon stuttered and made an excuse.
“Uh I couldn’t help it! Toto is dangerous… Ah no! If someone leaves all the performance evaluation points are gone!”
Simon also said something.
“Do you remember how angry you were when you went to rescue Toto? That you might still be alive. I’ll go alone…”
“Aaaaaaa! I can’t hear! I can’t hear! Be quiet!”
Simon and Lorraine looked at each other and burst into laughter. Eshu turned her head away in an angry response and Toto had red water dripping from her face.
“I-I really…”
Squeezing out all the courage he had Toto raised his head and opened his mouth with a voice like an ant crawling.
“Did you try to save me?”
“Oh no! Because you jumped in too stupidly!”
Watching the two of them talk Lorraine said quietly.
“Somehow those two seem to have gotten along better.”
Simon nodded and smiled.
“Rather than that close your eyes Lorraine. I’ll wake you up when it’s time.”
“It’s okay I can’t sleep either.”
The two leaned against the wall and chatted.
The story of the battle that just took place.
A story about school life.
A story about the production of Dyurahan.
right around that time.
“Hi~ Simon. You two look good.”
Cerne entered with her ivory hair flowing.
Simon greeted him with a smile but Lorraine narrowed her eyes while being wary.
“I told you not to wear feathers.”
Suddenly Toto and Eshu were crossing into the next room. Serene shrugged his shoulders.
“Do you have proof that I wrote it? They must have gone to good deeds among themselves.”
“Why are you here? Isn’t it the 1st shift?”
Cerne straightened up her school uniform skirt and sat across from Simone smiling blankly at Simone.
“It’s just that I didn’t want to do it. I asked someone else to change it.”
Lorraine opened her mouth as if speechless when she saw Cerne openly saying that she had skipped it.
“You really…! I thought you’d changed a bit after the Ivory Tower Incident!”
“What does change change right Simon?”
“Yes. It’s still the same.”
Seeing the two giggles Lorraine’s lips bulged out.
“Simon our ivory tower is ready.”
Serene said in a calm voice.
“Now no one in the upper management knows that Simon is the commander of the corps and no one is forcing it. You can come in comfortably. Meirin and I will lead the new young ivory tower—”
“What are you talking about?”
Lorraine intervened.
“Simon is the student council president of Kizen. Headquarters also evaluates Simon well…”
“That’s why Keygen’s evaluation is so important~ Your choice is more important. Last year’s Phantasus senior recruitment was like that too right? I tried giving him a crow seat as bait but I missed it.”
Lorraine bit her lip lightly as if stabbed in a sore spot.
“Actually we’re trying to serve Pantasus-senpai in our ivory tower as well. When Simon and Phantasus-senpai enter the ivory tower isn’t that the true peak of the ivory tower?”
“Well is that easier said than done? The ivory tower that tried to evade us and cross into the Neutral Zone.”
A slight crack appeared on Serene’s smiling face.
“Hmm~ That stupid plan was made before I was even born so what can I do? The important thing is now.”
After saying that Serene looked at Simon blankly. Then he raised his hand and put it on Simon’s philtrum.
“Hehehe-“
A light blush appeared on Serene’s face and she pursed her lips.
“For the next 10 10 more years I think I’m going to kidnap it. I want to lock it up in a tower give it water and raise it.”
Simon’s shoulders trembled.
Serene got a little scared because she thought she would really do that.
“Oh you haven’t seen it yourself have you?”
Serene turned her head and gave a meaningful smile.
“The appearance of future Simon.”
Lorraine made a puzzled expression. She too had been reported about a ‘frozen clock’.
“I saw a glimpse of Simon as a grown man in the Tower of Time.”
Lorraine couldn’t hide her nervous expression and swallowed.
“…Uh how was it?”
