Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Episode 971
“You killed Euclid, right?”
Jump and jump.
Simon walked to Lisara. She stepped back with an embarrassed look on her face.
“Mumumumu, I don’t even know what you’re talking about! Priest Euclid is there! “Why did he die…!”
“Stop acting now. “You already know that I am not Euclid, right?”
Simon continued in a cold tone.
“I just got the testimony from No. 3 Maricello and No. 8 Atula and I’m on my way back.”
“yes?”
“The key was Maricello.”
Simon held up two fingers.
“The Shinsu attack incident that occurred at Mohangje. No matter what anyone says, the suspect who committed that incident was Maricello. “But there were two eyewitnesses who saw Maricello in different places at the same time.”
Simon folded his fingers and tilted his head.
“Don’t you think it’s strange that there are two Maricellos? “Then who is that one?”
“….”
“It’s simple. “A person who blames Maricello and tries to avoid the investigation net.”
Simon had a strange look in his eyes.
“He is the one who killed Euclid.”
In the first place, Maricello confessed that he gave up the crime because he was threatened by the divine beasts without even being able to properly enter the Forest of Divine Beasts.
However, this incident was actually realized by someone else.
“Then the whole situation is drawn. “A person who knew that Maricello had a grudge against me, and even knew in advance that Maricello would commit a crime against Mohangje.”
Simon’s fingertips headed towards Lisara.
“It’s you, Lisa.”
“…!”
Her face turned a completely earthy color and she shook her head.
“Oh no! “I will never…!”
“Maricello told you about the crime plan, right?”
At those words, her movements suddenly stopped.
That much cannot be denied.
-Don’t talk bad about Euclid in front of me!
A cry made by Lisara during a street tour.
It is said that Maricello was psychologically shocked by those words, and that night he requested an ‘excellent sacrament’ from Lisara.
Girls kneeling side by side and holding hands in the late morning. Maricello confessed everything then.
-Euclid is constantly threatening me by exploiting my weaknesses! Do you know what that bastard said to me?
Maricello poured out gossip about Euclid all night long and then said:
-If Euclid doesn’t die, I die! I would accept it if it ended with just one life for me, but that bastard is trying to kill my precious people after playing with them. They think it’s just entertainment! I have no choice! Either he dies or I die. therefore…!
Maricello spat out in a voice that seemed strained.
-I will kill Euclid during the Mohang Festival.
“You must have been wondering what kind of rice cake this is.”
Simon opened his mouth, glaring at Lisara.
“That’s because No. 3 Maricello will move on his own to kill the fake Euclid you were also targeting. You snuck into Maricello’s room to get a hint about her crime, and there you found a note in which she had scribbled a murder plan.
Ok.
Simon took out a notebook from his pocket.
Lisara’s pupils shook helplessly.
“The paladins under Saint Lethe worked very hard to understand your movements. This was hidden in a closet at the cathedral you often visited. “Oh, that’s not what’s important.”
Simon waved his notebook and continued.
“The progress is as follows.”
After learning of Maricello’s crime, Lisara realized that the planned crime was full of loopholes.
Although Maricello is an excellent student, she is only 16 years old and has received religious education her entire life. He planned an impulsive murder, but the plan was amateurish.
The only thing that seems likely is a plan to kidnap the baby of the new beast from the Forest of Divine Beasts and lure the angry mother of the divine beast to attack Euclid. There were no variables as it was decided which village each number of selectees would go to.
However, it was clear that Maricello, Lisa, would not be able to properly enter the Forest of Divine Beasts.
So, I took direct action against Mohangje.
As expected, Maricello was unable to properly enter the Forest of Divine Beasts, and Lisara, who had a better sensitivity to divine beasts than her, confidently took possession of the cub and carried out her failed criminal plan.
As a result, if an incident occurs, whether Euclid is injured or alive, there will be a large-scale investigation into the incident.
Everything ends when Lisa anonymously takes a note with the crime in question scribbled on it and gives it to the investigator. It will be immediately apparent that it is Maricello’s handwriting.
However, as always in the world, there were variables.
First, Simon’s abilities were better than anyone could imagine, so he put the situation to rest without a single injury and handed over the case to Lete, who quickly covered up all the information.
The second is the existence of number 8 Aetula.
Aitula learned about the new situation because her family is a paladin working on Sky Island. And when he learned that his classmate, Euclid, had been attacked, he tried to tell what he saw.
-I saw who tried to harm Priest Euclid. I’m going to tell Priest Euclid what I saw.
The two people who listened to Aitula when she made that promise.
Number 1 Meryl and Number 9 Lisa.
Meryl was a person who had no connection to this situation, whether from an alibi or motive, and the problem was Lisa.
In fact, what Aitula witnessed at this time was ‘Maricello No. 3 from the Forbidden Forest’, but upon hearing those words, Lisara became frightened and became anxious.
Due to extreme anxiety that bordered on an obsession that his identity should not be revealed, he eventually attacked Atula, but it seemed that he was unable to kill him.
“There are more than one clue. The only people who left early on the day of the festival were you and Maricello Atula. As the paladins were walking around the streets, they learned about a recruit who had recently purchased a wig and green dye. “All the clues point to you as the culprit.”
Simon came hurriedly over.
She took a step back, but Simon was a little faster.
“Don’t come any closer!”
“Tell me, why did you kill Euclid?”
Simon’s eyes became sharp.
“Did you try to kill the saint under someone’s orders, but Euclid caught you and revealed your weakness? Or a personal grudge? “What does it have to do with Euclid?”
“No, that’s not it! So I…!”
Her eyes were spinning.
There seemed to be no intention to attack or run away, but something was strange about the situation.
Whiiiiiiiing!
The air is shaking uneasily in response to her divinity.
The surrounding windows were cracked and decorations were shaking precariously.
There was something strange about the atmosphere.
“say! “Lisa!”
But I couldn’t back down.
Simon shouted, holding onto Lisara’s wrist as she quickly took a step back.
“Why did you kill him? “What is the reason?”
“Ah ah ah ah ah! Aaaaaaa!”
She was shaking like she was having an anxiety attack. I could feel my body shaking through my hands.
and.
“!”
Simon’s vision instantly turned white. As if I had crossed into another space.
‘What is this?’
Everything around was white.
Simon had seen this place before.
‘no way.’
He looked back, breaking into a cold sweat.
You can see three white thrones placed next to each other. The throne sculpted with white flames is the essence of purification. The throne sculpted from wheat and grains is the essence of harvest.
And even a throne covered with roses.
‘This is what you see when you come into contact with the essence of a saint!’
Simon’s head turned.
Fourth throne.
It was starting to take shape, albeit vaguely.
‘Lisa…’
Simon’s mouth opened.
‘She was a saint? So you’re not a murderer? No, that won’t be it. therefore…!’
KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Simon suddenly came to his senses as soon as he heard a terrible scream.
A huge sound echoed throughout the cathedral, and candles from the huge chandelier connected to the ceiling immediately above fell.
“Ugh!”
Simon immediately raised both hands and spread his protective magic upward.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
A large chandelier fell, clouding the surroundings with all kinds of dust and tree debris. Fortunately, Simon, who had used his protection magic in time, opened his eyes and looked around.
“Lisa! “Lisa?”
Simon looked around. She was nowhere to be seen.
‘Where did they go… ah!’
Couuuuuuuuuuck!
Simon’s head turned to where the sound came from.
And I was shocked and trembled. You can see something hitting the wall and staggering around.
-I saw the devil.
Eitula’s story was correct.
Although it was said to be a devil, to Simon, it looked closer to a mummy. A skinny, naked woman with all red skin and ribs exposed. It was very large, had long limbs, and its aged skin was sticky like leather.
And the most shocking thing of all.
[Ugh. Ahhh!]
What Simon sensed was that Lisara’s power as a saint could be felt in that naked, terrible demon.
‘Is that Lisa?’
She opened her mouth and screamed.
[Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!]
Simon covered his ears and crouched. Everything made of glass shattered and the ceiling collapsed due to the strong shout. It shook its head, shedding bloody tears.
[no! No!]
It struggled.
[Euclid was wrong first…! If only it wasn’t Euclid!]
Simon’s eyes widened. The statue attached to the cathedral was flying toward Simon.
“Tsk!”
Simon unfolded multiple Holy Shields on the front. The statue that hit the shield split in half and rolled across the floor.
‘I’m really going crazy!’
A series of confusion and confusion.
As it struggled, the ceiling of the cathedral began to collapse.
At that time, Simon was taking a step back.
“Simon! “What’s going on?”
Lethe, who was waiting, heard the commotion and kicked down the door to reveal herself.
Simon said, immediately running.
“Lethe! run!”
“yes?”
Without any time to explain, Simon hugged her and ran away. Then the pillars cracked and the entire cathedral collapsed.
Coo coo coo coo coo!
The dust rises as if it will explode into the sky.
The two people who managed to escape outside before the ceiling fell watched with blank eyes.
“What on earth…!”
As Simon’s lips tremble, I feel a writhing movement in my arms.
“…What are you doing?”
“Oh sorry.”
Simon was startled and took a step back. Lethe, whose white hair was stained with dust, grunted and raised her upper body.
“Am I going to suffer this much? “Anyway, I’m going to kill you.”
“Are you feeling okay?”
“It’s okay. You look fine too. “What’s the situation?”
“Lisa…”
Simon, who had said that far, was shocked and withdrew his arm.
Before I knew it, the surroundings were full of red liquid. Suddenly, red blood was pouring out of the cathedral, staining the surrounding area red.
“This is…”
Lethe’s expression became serious.
Pow!
At that time, a large monster’s arm protruded from the ruins of the collapsed palace. Soon they climbed over the wreckage and began to pull the huge body up.
Soon, a woman with a withered body appeared.
[Aaaaaaa!]
She let out a terrible scream. All the windows of buildings in the surrounding cities are broken. Simon and Lethe covered their ears at the same time and frowned.
“Is that Sister Lisa… black?”
“I can’t believe it, but yes.”
“What’s even more surprising is.”
Lethe said.
“That is the true identity of the saint.”
“that’s right.”
Simon corrected his mistake.
Why did we think that a saint and a murderer were separate entities?
He was so obsessed with finding the saint and protecting her from the murderer that he was unable to think flexibly.
“…It’s still just a suspicion, but I think I was Euclid, the assassin who tried to kill the saint under orders from superiors. And the identities of both the saint and the murderer are-” Simon swallowed and spat out the words with a hard look on his face
.
“It was Lisa.”
