Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 717
A week passed in an instant and the final exams came.
“Everybody have a seat.”
bright bright morning. The first test was Aaron’s Intermediate Summoning.
Simon and the other students were putting their quills into the inkwell with their magpie heads and wide eyes. Like a warrior going through a ceremony before a war his expression was pious.
At the tip of this quill it was decided whether or not I could remain at Kizen for the next semester.
“Do your best in this exam Simon.”
Lorraine who was sitting in the front seat waved her hand. She looked tired but her smile didn’t fade.
“Thank you Lorraine. Cheer up too.”
“huh.”
While the two were exchanging encouragement Eshu who was a short distance away was splashing a quill into the inkwell with a serious face.
“Reno’s golden line is S-shaped Ghoul is a corruption modification Defiler’s tail is jet-black circuit and the reason why Dullahan’s neck and body are separated is jet-black widow…”
She muttered the contents she had memorized like a dark spell and suddenly screamed.
“Ahh!”
The students who were concentrating at the scream that seemed to be screaming out looked back with frowns. The assistant also ran in a hurry.
“Student! What’s going on?”
“Joe teaching assistant…!”
She cried and pointed to the floor.
“Fall! Fell! I’m screwed!”
He had simply dropped the quill from the inkwell.
Eshu made a fuss with all sorts of meanings and the assistant sighed and sent the quill back into the inkwell using black magic.
“All attention.”
Aaron said
All the students turned their heads and chanted ‘Attention!’
“You did a great job preparing for the exam. Needless to say the importance of this final exam is all the more important. Do your best without regrets. As I said during the midterm exam try cheating if you can. Just keep in mind that the risks far outweigh the merits.”
The chief assistant came with a test paper.
“Students take your hand off the quill and raise your hand above your head.”
Students raised their hands.
moment of tension.
The overturned test papers are put down on the desk. The moment has come to pour out everything you have learned so far. Aaron checked his watch and spoke in a solemn voice.
“Begin.”
Para la la la rock!
The test papers flipped over like the wings of a flock of birds taking off.
* * *
Simon also devoted this time to final exams.
I was pouring all my strength into the paper with the will to write all the black letters on this white paper even if I dried up and died.
However in the middle of taking the exam Azel’s face suddenly came to mind.
A showdown with him is right in front of him. Just thinking about it made her heart throb and her blood boil.
‘no!’
Simon nodded and focused on the problem again.
That’s how I went out to take the exam one subject at a time in a state of trance.
After finishing her major class exam she now comes to the classroom to take Jane’s general jet black mechanics exam.
“hi!”
Mei Lin came to play as an encouragement. She majored in jet black mechanics so this test was a pass.
“You guys didn’t even eat lunch right? Drink this.”
She kindly gave each student council member a vegetable juice that they could drink without burden.
“I’ll eat well.”
“Lee Yeol you have a sense!”
“Thank you! Meirin!”
Simon looked at her as he sipped his vegetable juice.
As expected Mei Lin changes as a person during the exam period. Her sky-blue hair which she is proud of is gathered so that her forehead is visible and tied back tightly and it is glossy and shiny probably because it has been washed for a long time. She also wears glasses and underneath her school uniform skirt is a loose tracksuit and flip-flops.
Simon said while drinking vegetable juice again.
“Isn’t Azel-senpai all right?”
Simon asked this out of the blue and surprised himself. Why am I asking this now?
Immediately Meirin’s eyes narrowed.
“Hey! Are you really focusing on final exams?”
“No that’s right.”
“Anyway.”
Meilin sighed and sat down in the front seat.
“You look in good shape. But well there are rumors that you recently had a fight with Sota-senpai.”
“If it’s Sota-senpai… you’re the representative of the command department right?”
“That’s right Kami.”
Meilin shrugged.
“It won’t be a big deal. They say they’ve been best friends in the same class since first grade but boys often fight and then reconcile don’t they?”
While the members were chatting about this and that I could see Jane’s teaching assistants entering the exam area one by one. Meirin suddenly stood up from her seat.
“We’ll start soon. Our student council must do well on Professor Jane’s exam! You know what I mean?”
She left nagging until the end.
After Simon finished drinking the vegetable juice he turned over his clasped hands and stretched them out.
‘Azel-senpai and Sota-senior fought.’
Like Meirin said I hoped it wouldn’t be a big deal.
* * *
All tests are over.
“Ah ah ah ah ah!”
“Fuck! It’s over! It’s over!”
The moment the assistants retrieved the answer sheet the lecture room turned into a frenzied party. Students burned test papers shredded them melted them with poison and cast all kinds of terrible curses on them.
It was a grim sight.
The use of black magic was strictly forbidden on campus but at this time even the teaching assistants did not dare to stop it. With an expression that said “Please save me” I slipped out into the hallway slowly noticing.
After venting their anger on the innocent test papers the students finally went out with a big smile like normal teenagers.
“I’ll go first!”
Simon couldn’t stand the pounding any longer and threw himself out the window.
tadak. I feel good when my feet land on the grass. He ran through the garden vigorously raising jet black. Fatigue is washed away by the cool breeze and thirst is quenched by looking up at the sky with flaked clouds.
‘Exactly tomorrow!’
In front of everyone watching he goes to challenge the strongest Kizen. The test is over but Simon’s test still has one more day left.
After running so hard Simon arrived at the roof of the student union building. There was no one else yet.
I’m leaning against the railing and waiting.
Whii-i-!
Simon grinned as he felt the darkness carried by the blowing wind.
‘come.’
Woo woo woo woo!
Two men came down on the roof by the wind.
One is Agel Bringer whom Simon knows well. The other was a third grader I had never seen before.
“How have you been?”
Azel who is playing a ruthless elite raised her glasses and said. Simon also greeted with a smile.
“Sure. Good luck with the duel tomorrow.”
Eisel calmly crossed her arms and set the mood but without the knowledge of her companion she waved her other hand in the direction of Simon. Simon also smiled and shook his hand.
“Nice to meet you Simon Pollentia.”
A calm 3rd grader approached and held out his hand.
“I’m Ednik Grarium who was asked by the former president Pantasus senior to oversee the refereeing and management of the student council president match.”
“i look forward to.”
The two shook hands.
“Did you do well on your final exam?”
“yes!”
“Good.”
He lightly asked how he was doing and moved on to the main subject. He took out his papers from his bag and held them out to Simon and Eisel.
“Princess Phantasus came to our Graham family before graduation and asked us to mediate and manage the duel for student president. I solemnly swear to you.”
The Student President Presidency Match is a sanctuary only for intact students where neither the school nor the headquarters can get involved. Naturally it was customary for the students to directly take charge of the manager of the game.
In that sense Ednik was from the prestigious Duke of Grarium who produced many diplomats and had a good reputation for his outstanding personality such as serving as a member of the Reward and Punishment Committee in the school.
He was a man of public confidence that everyone could recognize.
“Read the first chapter it’s about the rules of the duel.”
Simon read the explanation quickly.
‘also.’
I’ve been told by Agel before but the student council president duel is a ‘practical rule’.
The actual battle rules are actual formal duels without wearing protective suits vests or barriers.
It is meaningful in that it is a real necromancer’s duel unlike the duel evaluation in school where you fight safely for the purpose of grades. In Kizen only 3rd graders were allowed to duel duels.
There are only two conditions for the game to end in the actual rules. One side must either faint or declare surrender.
“Of course with the honor of the Graham family there will be no dangerous situations. We have the best medical staff ready.
This is the first dueling method other sophomores might have turned white if they had heard of it but Simon remained calm.
Aside from having a wealth of practical experience as a corps commander in fact the two practice sessions with Azel so far were all real battles without barriers. Azel took care of Simon to adapt to the ‘practical rules’.
“If you agree please sign below.”
After the two signed the paperwork they moved on to the next page.
“The match will be held privately and there will be 10 observers in total. All of these 10 will certify the student council president who was born after the duel.”
Simon first looked at the name of the observer written on it.
Two third graders and one second grader. There was even one freshman. It was someone Simon knew.
‘It’s Princess Molly.’
It was perfect. With the royal family watching and vouching for this match nothing unfair could happen.
“Oh and each contestant can bring three observers. Write the name of the student you want to observe.”
Simon thought for a moment.
In this match it was decided to write down the names of the student council members in Gyeonggi-ni which is fought over the authority of the student council president. Simon wrote Mailyn Villenne Dick Hayward and Kamibarez Ursula in turn.
“When you’re done sign the last column and return it to me.”
Simon signed the document first and handed out the file followed by Azel. Simon happened to see the observers he had written off.
-[Leonard Peyron.]
-[Bino Marshall.]
-[Anthony Aikman]
‘!’
Simon was surprised inside.
Of course the name of Eisel’s henchman Sota Psyche which he thought would be written down was not there.
‘Was the rumor that the two fought was true?’
“good.”
Ednik tidied up the papers and held out a token.
“This is the ‘Token of Honorable Dueling’ to be used before the student council president is decided. Only the owner of this token can fight a duel. Be sure to bring it tomorrow.”
Simon and Eisel put the dueling mark into their arms.
“Then shall we go to see the venue where the match will be held next? The stadium was prepared while maintaining security so thorough that even the head office staff did not know about it.”
Upon hearing this Simon asked.
“Does anyone but the Grahams know?”
“then!”
He looked at Simon and narrowed his eyes.
“No matter how much it is a tradition of the Kiden Student Council it can be noisy when adults know that the second year fights with real combat rules.”
Azel shook her head.
“Tell me the location. I’ll move right away.”
* * *
I arrived at my destination wondering how to build a stadium in Rock Island without people knowing.
This was a cliff on Rock Island where the waves crashed. Below was the blue sea.
“This way.”
Ednik strode toward the cliff on his own and disappeared at some point.
Simon was surprised but Eisel raised his glasses as if he knew.
“We’ll go too.”
“Ah yes.”
Simon and Eisel followed and to their surprise the environment around them changed as they passed through the barrier just before the cliff.
A large piece of land was attached to the cliff. A new vacant lot was created by attaching a rock wall to the cliff. It looked quite wide and strong but it seemed like it wouldn’t break no matter what I did.
Seeing the surprised Simon Ednik spread his arms and smiled like a gentleman.
“This is Grarium Class.”
“…Ah haha. That’s amazing.”
“It’s a match to determine the strongest in Kizen so we should do this much. Since it’s a simple flat terrain there’s no topographical advantage for both of them right?”
Both of them nodded.
“Then let’s meet here at dawn tomorrow. I’ll personally notify the observers.”
Ednik clapped his hands.
“Both of you I wish you a great game.”
