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!”
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?”
