Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 744
The Holy Federation dispatched troops to bring Saint Anna back.
And it is unknown if it was someone’s intention but unfortunately this information leaked to the Dark Alliance as well.
The Necromancers and Priests of the two forces who received the information rushed into the orphanage and became a situation on the verge but fortunately an all-out war did not break out.
Commander-level Richard and Anna prevented the battle and the orphanage was far from the area where the ‘seal’ was located in the Neutral Zone so the dispatched officers judged that there was no need to fight.
The dark spirits disappeared like a lie and Richard and Anna returned to their respective camps. The Holy Federation which cares more about the image of the residents has decided to protect the children in the orphanage.
It seemed that the situation was settled.
-attack! attack!
-Capture the fortress of the Holy Federation!
From the very next day the war on the Bahilla front resumed.
Since the situation was sluggish the upper part of the Dark Alliance wanted results and it seemed that they were trying to secure a seal excavation point even a little more than the Holy Federation.
but.
-Commander Jonah! I saw a tiny crack in the barrier behind the enemy camp! If we move the corps and break through there’s a good chance…!
-it’s okay.
After that day Richard acted like someone who had lost his mind.
Even after coming to the battlefield he perched on a rock and looked up at the sky in a daze or with his mouth open.
– Can’t break through. Hit moderately and retreat.
Richard often stopped the offensive saying that there was no need to launch an ineffective attack. Complaints from the hardline Ancient Undead and his subordinates within the Corps piled up but Richard ignored them.
– Holy Lady! Injured necromancers are lurking beneath the city center! Authorize the bombardment!
– Cannot be granted.
So was Anna.
– Holy bombardment only increases the damage to innocent civilians.
-Then at least dispatching an invasion team to the western front…!
– Your allies will take a lot of damage so try to retreat.
She like Richard was not motivated to fight. Israfil who couldn’t see it said.
– Sister Anna! When you have a chance to win you have to push! We need to expand our blockade excavation area even a little bit!
At that Anna let out a sad laugh.
– The defense of the Dark Union is thorough. Even if we succeed in breaking through we fear how much blood we will have to shed.
-You can’t win a war by being afraid of sacrifice! you know? What are you going to do if a seal comes out in the Bahilla district over there? Surely the Holy Father is accusing us of sin…
– A seal may appear in that area.
Anna replied in a calm tone.
– How many people have lost their lives because of that so far? Excavation of the area currently occupied has not yet been completed so how much more blood will we have to shed in the future based on the assumption that the sealed letter ‘may come out’.
– Sister Anna!
-We will stop possible attacks and focus on excavating seals while defending the territory we have occupied.
Anna sat in a chair and stared out of the tent rejecting all the opinions of the staff including Israfil to change the offensive.
Even if I couldn’t see outside I blankly looked in a certain direction.
Israfil bit his lip.
‘…Annie sister.’
Israfil who had seen Anna for a long time could tell.
Anna was suffering.
When I ask what happened she smiles saying it’s the same as usual but her laugh is lifeless. She abstains from food and drink and like a dying person she is absent-minded.
Right after the ‘orphanage incident’.
‘…This is not my fault.’
As Lena pointed out let’s assume that this situation happened because she reported Anna’s deviation to the headquarters and the information leaked out.
But isn’t that a better thing?
The man he was meeting at the orphanage was a necromancer even the infamous corps commander Jonah. He was tricked by him and it was he who saved Anna’s sister before something more terrible happened.
As expected I am the only one for Anna.
‘…But why.’
Anna is smiling like a withered flower and I wonder if I can’t make eye contact with her properly out of guilt.
no way.
No it can’t be.
Israfil shook his head dispelled the blasphemous delusions from his mind and then moved on to devising a more effective and perfect attack plan that Anna had to approve of.

four days later.
late morning.
Simon and Lethe escaped from their respective formations and met again at the ruins.
“I’m glad you’re safe Lethe.”
said Simon with a sigh of relief. Lethe whom she met again looked a little emaciated.
“Well there was a little questioning from people but Miss Anna protected me thoroughly so I was able to stay.”
“huh.”
After the orphanage incident the Holy Federation was given a strict ban on leaving duties.
During the 100 Year War the war situation was increasing especially in the Neutral Zone where the seal excavation was taking place soldiers often went out in secret but this incident blocked all the paths.
Lethe risked her life to come here.
“How about the Dark Alliance?”
“It’s the same as the fact that this side has also been issued a ban on leaving the military service.”
“Things are twisted. Somehow I thought it would work out too well.”
Before coming to the past according to what I heard directly from Richard and Anna in Les Hill the two of them learned each other’s identity after about six times of dating since they first met.
The incident in which he found out the identity was because of what happened when he went on a date in the suburbs and provoked the nearby monster colony.
It was a fierce battle and the two men who had been fighting with mana had no choice but to raise pitch darkness and divinity to eliminate the monsters.
After learning that they were Necromancers and Priests they fought for a while asking if they had deceived me but soon more monsters flocked to them so they had no choice but to form a temporary alliance.
countless monsters. And back to back Necromancer and Priest.
In the process of opposing a common enemy together the anger and misunderstanding between the two is washed away little by little and strange feelings arise.
Of course after the battle is over the two of them will break up after confirming their position saying that we are now enemies and there will be no forgiveness if we meet on the battlefield but the fact that they resolved it through dialogue without a decision is proof that there is a bond between the two. was
however.
“In our timeline right now the two of you broke up without dating six times.”
Lethe hit the ground with her fist.
“Let alone six we only had one date after our first meeting! That was also interrupted by strange spirits!”
Simon sighed.
“I hope that one date is as impressive as six dating times combined.”
“More than anything it’s big that I didn’t go through the monster colony incident.”
Simon also agreed with Lette’s words.
In the monster colony incident a fierce battle took place before they realized that they were enemies and fell into shock and in the process of opposing a common enemy they build a bond.
But this time that process was omitted.
They confirmed each other’s identity and broke up in a state of shock. We couldn’t confirm our feelings for each other and we couldn’t build a bond. The soldiers of each formation who came over by teleport were also caught on the scene.
The two were in trouble. Then suddenly Lethe said with a determined face.
“The one who messed up the situation in the first place is the death penalty! Now that it’s like this we’re out!”
“…What are you going to do?”
“It’s a sword that somehow even by force brings the two of them to the vicinity of the monster colony! How about we stimulate the monsters in the colony and run away? The two will fight and in the end won’t it be similar to the past we know? “
“Well I had the same thought so I checked to see if there was a colony of monsters nearby.”
Simon shook his head.
“It was after the Dark Alliance had already judged it as a potential danger and subdued all colonies.”
“Damn it it looks like the association has already tried their hand.”
The ‘association’ from the future was not only thorough enough to eliminate minor variables but also seemed to know Richard and Anna well.
The only thing I know about them is that they use a different power called ‘Dark Spirit’. And it was only the fact that he could exert some influence on both the Dark Union and the Holy Federation with information power.
“We’ve done enough.”
Simon made the diagnosis.
“Forcing the two of you to meet again here is less realistic and even if you do I think the feelings of the two of you will become more confused. For now let’s observe the situation a little longer.”
Simon looked at the hourglass artifact around his neck. More than half of the sand had flowed down.
“Perhaps we can stay in the past until the time of the ‘Corruption of the Legion of Betrayal’. That is the most important chance.”
“You are surprisingly calm.”
Lethe crossed her arms.
“The Witch of Death said that if the two of you don’t continue like this your existence may disappear when you return later. Did you forget already?”
“Of course I remember.”
Simon raised his head.
“But I trust your heart.”
It’s a little twisted but the belief that those two will somehow connect in the end.
Simon had such a vague faith.
“…It’s a fateful love.”
Lethe rubbed her chin.
“I wish such an unreal story would really happen.”
* * *
After the orphanage crisis Richard lived like a disabled person.
No matter what I did my heart was empty. When others asked why he looked like that Richard couldn’t answer. Because he himself didn’t know why.
I just feel like shit.
That’s all.
Then one time classmates called Richard over for a drink at night. Coincidentally the nagging ‘watcher’ was nowhere to be found.
The order was out of service but it wasn’t Richard’s concern. He packed his coat and followed his comrades.
I came to the bar I used to go to every time.
As always I declared that I would buy the price of alcohol rang the golden bell and took away the instruments of the bards and played them.
But it wasn’t fun. The cheers of the people the sharp spirits of alcohol and the women who come to seduce him.
everything was empty
He sits on the sofa and plays like a king with women in his arms but there is no inspiration.
no.
Rather it just made me feel worse.
Crack!
Richard slammed the bottle hard on the floor.
Bottles were shattered fragments scattered and women screaming. People who were in a mess and party atmosphere looked at Richard in amazement.
Richard took out a wad of money threw it at the tavernkeeper and came out.
I thought I would never come here again.
returned to the military barracks.
He never imagined that the day would come when he would come back in the middle of a party. He threw off his outer garment and opened the stack of books on one side.
-[The secret of the seal.]
-[Principle and history of sealing.]
Then he took the blackboard and scribbled hard with chalk.
“How to Stop War”
percussion-
Richard who wrote that with chalk blankly stared at the blackboard.
“X feet.”
then do He ran his bangs through his hair and threw the chalk away.
baek!
The chalk hit the tent pole and split it in half. Richard took a bottle of rum and quenched his throat as hard as he could then took up his quill and scribbled on his report.
< Report: Why this war must end. >
buck buck.
He scratched his long hair and wrote down in the spirit of alcohol.
why am i like this
Why is this?
It’s not fun to play with and it’s not exciting to see women.
end the war?
Why am I suddenly
‘X feet.’
Richard stretched his arms.
– Were you Jonah?
Richard stood up overturned the desk and kicked the chair.
I looked at the broken fragments and flying papers.
My stomach is nauseous and my mood is still the worst.
“Why isn’t this watcher coming like this!”
he yelled.
“I can’t go out drinking again! Huh?
Then I couldn’t help myself and sat down again.
I felt like garbage.
* * *
late morning.
An empty prayer hall with no one in the Holy Federation.
“….”
Right there Anna was on her knees praying.
In the moonlight shining through the window she was leafing through the scriptures.
But no matter what verses in the sutras you memorize.
no matter what prayer
-Today is not all. Keep challenging like that.
The man’s face flashed in my mind.
Even shaking my head and praying again did the same.
My heart ached so much. It was so bitter and unbearable that I shed tears. She wiped her eyes with her sleeve and held her hands again.
“What are you doing here sir?”
Hearing the voice from behind Anna slowly turned her head.
Lethe was approaching with a kind smile.
“If you pray like that until dawn you’ll get hurt.”
“…Lena.”
Anna bowed her head.
– Little by little even if it’s small and trivial. It seems to be the master of my life.
Having made up her mind she met Lethe’s eyes with a resolute expression.
“I have something I want to ask you.”
