Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 581
That night.
Simon Lorraine Toto and Eshu were going down the snow on wooden skis.
“Kyahahahaha! It’s so much fun! This is a training camp! Breaking away is the best part!”
Eshu exclaimed in a loud voice feeling liberated. Her ‘curse dolls’ were flying in the sky lighting up the surroundings.
Thanks to Eshu’s ability there was no difficulty in distinguishing the surroundings but the snow flurries and the steep slopes made it dangerous.
“Ouch! Aaaagh!”
Toto’s legs trembled precariously as he was skiing.
“To ski at a time like this! You’re going to die!”
“Ah Eomsal! Just follow me from behind.”
Eshu shouted fighting. Simon looked at her with a worried look on her face.
“That town is definitely there right?”
“Of course! I heard it directly from my teaching assistant. I went to that village and bought the ingredients for tonight’s dinner! Trust me!”
It was Eshu’s characteristic that even if asked in one word he would answer in five words.
And even in the midst of this Lorraine was showing off her proficient skiing skills. While taking care of his beginner Toto he avoided the tree that came right in front of him with a skillful turn.
It was impressive to see her freely descending the white snowfield with her black hair flying.
“As expected it’s amazing Mr. Lorraine!”
Eshu waggled his tail.
“Is this really your first time skiing?”
“You learn quickly what you do with your body.”
Lorraine replied calmly. Eshu nodded his head and looked back at Simon with sullen eyes.
“Shouldn’t that boy from the mountain village who keeps peeking over there have to work harder?”
Simon gave an embarrassed smile.
I used to use skis on snowy days in Les Hill but I wasn’t used to it because it wasn’t a snowy area in the first place.
“This is what Lorraine is so good at.”
“I’ll hit you with something like that.”
“Agh!”
Eventually an accident happened. Toto blows off the skis from his feet and hits his head in the snow. Seeing this the crew immediately stopped.
“Toto! Are you okay?”
Simon exclaimed urgently.
“Ugh yes it’s okay!”
Pong in the snow! and Toto raised his face. His face was flushed and he had a blank expression.
“Uhaha! Toto your expression is so funny!”
Eshu chuckled. The cursed dolls that lit up the darkness around her were laughing as if imitating her.
Toto got up from his seat and whimpered. Lorraine raised the pitch black at the end of her skis and climbed uphill holding Toto’s hand and helping him up.
“Thank you! No thank you!”
Toto was still afraid of Lorraine.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“Yes!”
Simon came over and pointed at Toto’s knee.
“Wait I think I hurt my knee.”
It seems that when it fell it hit a rock or tree hard.
Toto said it was okay but there was a feeling that his legs were slightly limp as if his walking was uncomfortable. He was in no condition to ski.
“I’ll take you.”
Lorraine shook her head at Simon’s words.
“No Simon you look dangerous too because you’re on the edge. I’d better take you.”
“What are you going to do?”
* * *
after a while like that.
Chwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Three skis were sliding down the snowfield.
and Toto.
“....”
He was wrapped in Lorraine’s arms. He was curled up like a baby koala his face red with embarrassment and shame.
“I-I’ll just go with my feet!”
“You don’t have to say no.”
Lorraine smiled. Not daring to respond to Nephthys’s daughter’s words Toto closed his eyes tightly.
“Whoop! Whoop whoop!”
Even after laughing like that Eshu seemed to have the strength to laugh again. She pretended to be a reporter which she often does when she is in a good mood.
“There is no luxury like this! To go in the arms of Nephthys’s daughter and the next President Kizen! How does it feel to be in the special seat? Death Knight boy!”
“Don’t do it!”
Everyone burst out laughing. At that time Suga said ‘Oh!’ and opened her eyes wide.
“The moment I said it! I see it over there!”
There really was a village.
* * *
“....”
“....”
The 10th group members who arrived at the village were at a loss for words in the silence.
The village was a village but it was a ruin where no one lived.
“Eshu.”
Simon narrowed his eyes and looked back. Her eyes met and she said ‘Hick!’ made her sound and shrugged her body.
“Ah what! Don’t suddenly stare at me so scary! I was scared!
“I want to hear a proper explanation for this case.”
Lorraine also turned to Eshu with a smile.
“I think I’ll be a little angry if Toto gets hurt and goes back empty-handed.”
The face was smiling but Eshu thought it was more scary this way.
She cried out in a loud voice sweating profusely.
Eshu cried and screamed.
“It’s really gloomy here! I feel bad! There must be a ghost a ghost!”
Lorraine shook her head.
“Where are ghosts in the world? They obviously asked us to save them. It might be a rescue request but we can’t pretend we don’t know.”
“Someone is calling for help in an abandoned house!”
“The castaway may have stopped by for a while avoiding his eyes.”
-Help me. Help me.
Hee!
Now Eshu and Toto trembled as they held on to each other.
Lorraine who had been watching him quietly turned around.
“I’ll go. You guys wait here.”
“for a moment.”
There was one who stood up with a rustling sound.
“...You can’t go alone. Go together.”
It was Simon.
* * *
Simon and Lorraine walked through the ruins each holding a lantern in their hand.
kiik- kiik-
The smashed door creaked and shook. Sensitive Simon swallowed his saliva and moved on.
“Strange.”
Lorraine murmured as she illuminated the surroundings with her lantern.
“What what?”
“Our job is to deal with the undead. Ghosts are no different from the undead. It’s a bit strange for a necromancer to say that he’s afraid of ghosts...”
Having said that she stopped walking and looked back.
The lantern in Simon’s hand was shaking like a thresher. Lorraine narrowed her brows.
“Are you afraid of ghosts too?”
flinch.
Simon’s body stiffened like a wooden doll.
“...Ahaha that can’t be.”
“My legs are shaking.”
“This is because my legs hurt while skiing earlier.”
“Hmm-“
Lorraine swung her head and took the lead.
“Even the corps commander who leads tens of thousands of undead can be afraid of ghosts.”
“Oh no!”
Simon shouted blushing.
A mischievous smile finally formed on Lorraine’s lips.
“I’m kidding. It’s telling me to relax.”
“Keugh.”
-Uhhhh.
Then I heard the sad cry of a woman carried by the wind. Simon stiffened again.
-Help me. Help me.
Lorraine pricked up her ears.
“Hey there. Let’s go.”
“Wait! Prepare your heart...!”
“Come quickly. He might be injured.”
Lorraine urged pulling Simon’s arm sleeve. Simon closed his eyes and followed her.
Tadat.
fault.
We arrived at the place where the cries came from.
It was an abandoned house that was all collapsing. The windows are broken and there are cobwebs all over.
‘Ugh.’
Simon felt a tingling sensation run down the back of his neck. Even if he died he did not want to enter this place.
It seemed that it would be a hundred times better to fight with the blood cheongyo or the death.
“Who’s there?”
Lorraine calmly spoke through the broken window.
Instead of answering a dark ominous cry was heard.
“That’s right. Let’s go in.”
She grabbed the door and rattled it. It didn’t open as if something was hanging on her but she drew jet-black light into her arm and pulled it at once.
Tuong-!
Throwing the smashed door to the side she moved forward shining a lantern.
“Watch out Lorraine!”
Simon quickly followed.
-Uhhhh.
The condition of the house was a mess.
Torn curtains smashed furniture dried red bloodstains are also visible. It wasn’t just ruins it was like the middle of a murder scene.
The two passed through the living room and entered the room.
-Help me. Help me.
We finally arrived at the source of the voice.
‘...!!’
Simon stopped walking feeling a chill run down his neck.
Under the moonlight shining through the curtains a little girl in old clothes was crying with her face buried in her lap.
-Uhhhh.
The downy hair stood out.
Why is the little girl alone in a place like this? No matter how you look at it it was not a normal situation.
“Leave it to me.”
Then Lorraine approached with a confident gait.
