Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 879
Simon was not particularly impressed by the sight of a handsome man.
When I was living in Leshill I had seen the face of Richard Pollentia a national treasure-class handsome man and even after entering Keyzen there were countless handsome men such as Bahil a professor of curse studies and Leonard a 3rd year student.
‘But this person in front of me right now...’
Aside from being handsome he had no humanity.
Her shiny silver hair like dew flowing was grown and tied back tightly and she had flawless skin dark eyebrows and a good natural smile.
After the Creator created this man he created the world to boast about. It’s often a bard’s compliment to handsome men and women but I haven’t seen anyone that fits that word like now.
‘Ah is it natural that he lacks humanity?’
The thing in front of me is definitely a ‘dragon’.
Because dragons are so large and conspicuous I’ve heard that outside their realm they like to change into other races with a magic called Polymorph.
“Would you wait a moment? My best friend Aaron. I have a schedule left for today.”
“Of course. It’s because this is the one who came to me without any contact.”
When Aaron answered like that the dragon Harhis smiled brightly as if it could melt the world. Simon thought that it was fortunate that there was no female crew on this schedule.
That’s how I got a chance to follow Harhis for a while and observe his day.
He had a very humble personality. He swept the yard clean with a broom made of woven straw and every single moment of simply sweeping the broom was like a masterpiece of a famous painting.
He also farmed on the island. I went to the garden to water trim long vines or harvest mature crops.
He smiled contentedly as he pulled out a large carrot.
“You grew up well Ant. Today is the best day ever.”
Ant was the name of the carrot he gave it. Soon after cleaning and farming I drank water while leaning against an old wooden warehouse building.
‘Grunt.’
Simon had to tremble from the sense of alienation.
Wearing old and worn-out clothes wearing a farming apron and work boots. His clothes smell like fertilizer and he is a continental class handsome man. No matter what modest work he did he could not hide the dignity that flowed from his body.
“I waited a long time.”
After a while Harhis changed into his everyday clothes and served a cup of tea to two people sitting at an outdoor table.
The cup made of clay and the tea leaves were cultivated here but the savory taste was excellent.
Harhis saw Simon.
“Come to think of it Aaron. I haven’t heard who this is.”
“Simon Pollentia my disciple.”
Simon greeted again.
Originally from the kingdom of Baldwin he was the student council president of Keyzen so he had to add some introduction but such a background as a human in front of a dragon would be fine.
“This is Simon Pollentia.”
“Yes nice to meet you.”
He looked at Aaron with a soft smile and an eye smile.
“Now I’m wondering why you’ve come so far.”
“....”
Aaron closed his eyes for a moment and emptied his cup of tea.
“Harhis. I’m sorry I ruined your best day.”
“yes?”
“Just talking about the main topic. Unfortunately I got one of the dragon’s remains.”
Harhis holding the teacup hesitated.
His expression was a smile but Simon witnessed the slight trembling of his fingertips holding the glass.
“I see. Is it you Aaron who obtained the remains?”
“No not me. Among the necromancers of Keyzen...”
Having said that Aaron let out a small sigh.
“No lying is meaningless to you. My disciple next to me has it.”
Aaron said he had a nickname among dragons.
Harhis of truth.
They say lies don’t work. After Harhis glanced at Simon he turned his gaze back to Aaron.
“okay.”
“I came because I thought you would be able to recognize who these remains are.”
In his bosom Aaron placed the picture of the dragon’s remains turned upside down on the table.
There they set up a tent and built a bonfire to wait for Aaron. He crouched in front of the tent and waited for Aaron.
The dragon ran amok.
Still far away on the island the ice rose endlessly. The island was almost about to sink.
A sight reminiscent of a natural disaster.
[Khehehe! Your professor is taking the long way back!]
Peer’s alter ego attached to the school uniform opened its mouth.
[Can’t we just kill that dragon and get the dragon heart!]
“It’s not that simple.”
Harhis is strong.
It would be close to impossible to catch him whole without damaging his dragon heart but above all Aaron truly regards Harhis as a precious friend. It is impossible to betray such Aaron and without Aaron’s cooperation it is difficult to complete the Bone Dragon.
And though neither Aaron nor Harhis explained it properly it seemed that the situation in the dragon society was more complex than Simon had thought.
This wasn’t just Harhis’ problem. If Simon with the remains of his ‘teacher’ captured Har His and took his dragon heart he might really turn the dragons around the world into enemies.
Now that the decisive battle with the society is near turning the entire dragon race into an enemy was the worst option. The Dark Alliance needed their cooperation.
“The professor told me to believe so let’s wait.”
It’s been such a long time.
The storm the screams and the ice rising from the island stopped and after a while Aaron returned to Simon in tatters.
“Professor! You’re not hurt...!”
“I need to sleep.”
Aaron said that in a cracked voice and crawled into the tent Simon had made.
“If anything happens wake me up.”
“Ah yes! You’ve worked hard.”
As soon as Aaron entered the tent he fell asleep. He wanted to ask what happened but he decided to ask tomorrow.
‘...I can’t sleep.’
While staying awake Simon stared blankly at the bonfire burning in front of the tent.
Just emptying my mind and looking at the flames calmly made me feel at ease. I didn’t even know how much time had passed.
at that time.
Tododo-
A squirrel appeared on the fire. It snooped over as if showing interest in the berries that had fallen on the floor.
While Simon was watching the squirrel suddenly turned its head towards Simon and waggled his tail.
‘huh? Are you asking me to follow you?’
When Simon got up he sprinted to the side wagging his tail again.
Simone followed the squirrel and soon a small clearing was revealed in the woods.
knock knock-
There was also a small bonfire spread here but no one was there.
At that moment the squirrel climbed onto the rock and immediately changed its appearance into a silver-haired person. Simon who thought so said with a nervous face.
“Harhis...!”
“Sit down if that’s all right.”
he smiled.
His face was tired but his smile did not fade.
“I’d like to talk to you for a minute.”
Simon sat down slowly alert. Harhis stared at the wood burning in the bonfire for a moment.
“...I’m sorry about what happened earlier. The moment I saw the remains of my missing teacher my anger surged up involuntarily and my heart was torn to pieces.”
His eyes were wet with deep sadness.
“But when I saw my best friend risking his life to calm me down I wondered why he would do that.”
-The incident happened before my pupil was even born. Just like you gave me a chance see with your own eyes what kind of person he is.
tadak.
He grabbed some nearby firewood and threw it into the fire.
“From our dragon’s point of view the Witch of Death is someone we can’t see favorably. But it wasn’t for self-interest that she had to kill my teacher. As Aaron said the remains of a human who couldn’t have been born at the time. It’s just what you’ve been given.”
he raised his head
Her silver eyes like the moonlight were shining brightly.
“I wonder what kind of person you are Simon Pollentia.”
