Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner Chapter 1096
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 1096
A place different from the Ghost Palace unfolded before Simon and Merida’s eyes.
It was a strange forest with twisted and curved trees and plants. The entire sky is dark, but the red sunset is lined up like a crack in a plate.
“This… isn’t the ghost palace, is it?”
Simon muttered in an embarrassed voice. Merida next to me yawned and said, as if she had no other thoughts.
“It’s a forest.”
“…I know that when I see it.”
“The coordinates of the teleportation magic circle were not wrong.”
The idea was to keep going.
The two walked carefully through the thick fog.
Jump and jump.
Crackling.
As she walked, Merida, who was slow at walking, lagged behind little by little and soon leaned against Simon’s back.
‘Are you scared because it’s a dark forest?’
If that’s the reason. Simon didn’t bother to stop him, but it turned out that Merida was dozing off. Looks like he just needed someone to lean on.
I continued walking along the road like that for a while.
“Merida, look at this.”
When Simon stopped walking, Merida stuck out her head and looked ahead with a sleepy expression. A candle was placed unnaturally in the middle of the forest. The wick has not burned out and the color of the flame is green. Behind it lies a neat and straight tombstone without the name of the deceased written on it.
“What on earth is this place?…” At that time
,
something began to stir on the tombstone. What looked like an elastic liquid slowly rose from the tombstone and soon transformed into a monster with eyes, nose, and mouth.
Simon’s eyes lit up.
‘Ghost Undead!’
-Gegegegege!
The ghost let out an irritating laugh and suddenly swung its arms. As it swung, it grew in size and instantly became larger than the ghost’s body.
Simon and Merida jumped back and avoided it. There were large fingernail marks in the ground where the two people had just been.
-Gegegege!
These undead ghosts appeared one by one from all over the forest and began to surround Simon and Merida. Simon wiped the bridge of his nose.
‘It has begun. Engagement with difficult spirit-type undead.’
On the continent, a ghost is an undead made up of jet black and spirit without a body.
Among them, monster entities that are aggressive and harmful to humans are called ‘wraiths’. These ghosts are often immune to physical attacks, so you usually fight them with the same spirit.
However, Simon was not very talented in necromancy or spirit.
‘A way to inflict certain damage even without spirits.’
A divinity that defeats the undead. And the chaos that mixes divinity and pitch black is eaten by ghosts.
Since this was the Dark Alliance, Simon decided that it would be better to use chaos, so he immediately put his hands behind his back and prepared a chaos magic circle.
“It’s Mary! First, let’s run away…!”
Ta-bak-ta-bak.
But Merida didn’t even listen to those words and ran forward, her school uniform skirt flying. The evil undead rushed towards me, making a terrible sound.
“Pantasus brother’s sleep is invincible.”
She opened her palm.
“Make any living creature sleep, and if it is not sleeping, stop its functions. The same goes for wraith undead.”
Her palm touched the body of the wraith undead.
“uh?”
The wraith undead did not stop functioning. It immediately engulfed her with its spirit-based body and trapped her like a fish tank.
Her body floated as if it were inside a drop of water.
“It’s Mary!”
My head was pounding. Anyway, that idiot is sometimes so defenseless.
But even considering that, I never thought Merida Hugh Eckell would be defeated so easily. Simon was also nervous, thinking that the ghostly undead here were unusually strong. Ghosts were coming from all directions.
‘I can’t help it.’
The second iron law of fighting spirit-based undead.
Sigh!
The ghost swung its arm to attack Simon, but Simon lowered his body to avoid it and raised his right hand.
Fuuuuuuuuuuck!
The middle finger and thumb touched together and a shock wave shot out from the center. The head was completely broken and the undead wraith writhed in pain.
‘do.’
When shapeless ghosts attack humans, their physical power increases by increasing the ratio of pitch black to spirit. At this time, if you attack with the correct timing, you can cause damage to the ghost’s body.
“come out!”
Simon opened the subspace and took out skeletons one after another, then spread his palms and pretended to strike down his clenched fists.
An emerald thunderbolt fell from the sky and several SS troops were formed.
-Gegegege!
Simon threw himself into the midst of the crowd of ghosts. At the moment when the ghosts tried to physicalize their bodies and attack, he moved the SS to stab them in the back.
The ghosts who were embarrassed by the sword quickly went back into the ‘spiritual’ state, but their bodies did not recover easily.
Simon dodged the attack and extended his fingertips.
A curse for dealing with necromancers that also applies to spirit-based opponents. The ghosts twisted their bodies and were forcibly given physical power, and the SS swung their swords to finish it off.
‘I’m coming to the Ghost Palace, so I thoroughly reviewed my lessons!’
Sigh!
Even the Matuu SS curse, Incanate.
Simon, who was using all three skills to defeat the ghostly undead one after another, finally pulled out his secret weapon from behind his back.
Crumbling!
Purple thunderbolts shot out in all directions, finishing off all the remaining ghosts. Simon exhaled lightly and turned his head.
“It’s Mary! Let’s go now… okay?”
Before I knew it, Merida had laid out the blanket and was lying on it with her eyes half closed.
The surrounding area was full of motionless ghost-type undead, as if they were sleeping.
“Slow down, Simon.”
As she lay down, she rummaged through her school uniform pockets, took out something, and threw it into the sky.
A stake-shaped artifact for combating the great wraith undead.
It was shaped like a stake and spun around in the air and pierced the heads of the lying undead ghosts.
All the ghosts scattered like powder and disappeared.
Ha-am-
She opened her small mouth, yawned loudly, and then made the sound “mmnya mmnya.”
“I just came up with a new sleep configuration that also works on ghosts.”
Simon smiled as if relieved.
“Good job Merida.”
“Then let’s get some sleep.”
“no.”
Simon came over and pulled her out from under the blanket, as she was acting like a snail trying to hide in its shell.
I put my arms between her armpits and lifted her up, forcing her to stand, but she slumped down in her seat. When I tried to get him up again, he fell down again.
Simon smiled awkwardly.
‘Both Juul and Maylin have grown since they entered third year, but why does this one seem to have degenerated further?’
Merida, who was sitting on the floor like a herd, looked up at Simon.
Then I raised my arms.
“Pick me up.”
“….”
I couldn’t say it.
When Simon looked back and lowered his body, Merida seemed to have been waiting and dived powerfully behind Simon’s wide back.
“lol.”
He wriggled a few times on his back as if he was trying to find a good posture, and soon let out a satisfied laugh with a flushed face.
I’m moving forward so slowly.
Clap clap clap.
Applause was heard.
When Simon stopped walking and turned his head, a woman wearing a black goth outfit was walking out of the darkness. Her hair was wrapped up in an extreme bun.
“Excellent, student council president Simon Pollentia. Merida Hugh Ickel, Dean of the Department.”
“Who are you?”
Simon was immediately alert.
Even at first glance, you can tell that she is a powerful necromancer.
“I am Mulia, the servant of the Princess of Tenerife.”
A woman who identified herself as Mulia bowed.
“I’m looking forward to the performance of the two of you. “Welcome to the Ghost Palace.”
“A ghost palace? “Are you here?”
“yes.”
She turned and gestured.
Shaaaaaaa-
Suddenly, the thick fog in the forest began to clear, and the view of the huge palace was finally revealed.
Simon and Merida were both surprised.
Because it was bigger than I imagined.
‘It feels like a city is covered with a palace, not a palace.’
While Simon was shivering at the scale, Mulia pointed in another direction with her fingertip.
“I won’t be going to the Ghost Palace from day one. “Please follow me.”
* * *
Surprisingly, this forest-like place was actually just a garden called ‘The Princess’ Garden’.
Scary and threatening plants are just the princess’s taste. It is a place where ghosts that escaped from the Ghost Palace sometimes wander, making the garden a bit dangerous for the general public to visit.
And the candles and electric lights seen here and there were all a type of ‘trap’ to catch the ghosts that had escaped from the Ghost Palace.
“Ghosts have a tendency to enter objects that look warm and cozy. And then you get caught in a trap like that.”
A net was set up in front of the candles, and the ghosts were struggling in it with vicious movements.
With just a wave of her hand, Mulia gathered the spirit into the shape of a spear and destroyed the ghosts.
“I will help guide you and do a little work on the side.”
“Yes, take it easy. haha.”
“The real work at the Ghost Palace begins tomorrow morning.”
Mulia opened her mouth.
“You will stay at the villa tonight, and tomorrow morning you will enter the ghost palace and meet the Princess of Tenerife.”
“A separate palace?”
“That’s what the lodging building outside the Ghost Palace is called.”
She said calmly.
“You can think of it as a lodging facility for employees commuting to the Ghost Palace. It’s hard to spend an entire day at the Ghost Palace. “Everyone who works at the Ghost Palace is sensitive and wants to spend even one minute and every second outside the Ghost Palace.”
“aha.”
As I walked a little further through the garden, I saw an old-fashioned building that was moderately large compared to the size of the huge Ghost Palace.
It was an old building reminiscent of the dormitory during my first year at Keygen, but it had a pretty neat exterior.
“Please come in.”
Simon came inside carrying Merida. It was a warm place with the smell of tree sap and cocoa. Here and there, necromancers dressed in goth-like clothes like Mulia were talking about various things.
Two men were sitting in the lobby, drinking beer and talking. It has a kind of inn-like atmosphere.
“….”
Simon stopped walking and stared at the men talking.
‘Those people.’
Although transparent, there was a ‘feather’ stuck at the nape of the neck.
Mulia came up next to me.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Oh no. it’s nothing.”
Simon smiled.
Mulia cleared her throat hmm.
“You two will return here to stay after finishing your daily routine at the Ghost Palace. There are no special living rules, but since it is a space where many people are sleeping, do not make too much noise. Please be sure to enter through the front door without passing through the wall due to the spirit formation. “It’s about these two things.”
“All right.”
“I’ll show you to your room.”
The two headed straight to the room. I climbed the narrow passages and stairs with a creaking sound. There were up to 10 floors, and it was a struggle to climb them one by one.
So Simon was assigned the 9th floor and Merida was assigned the 3rd floor.
“I will guide you, Merida Hugh Ickel. Rohit?”
“Oh yeah. Seniors.”
A man with no eyebrows came up yawning.
“You are the guest of the Princess of Tenerife. Please guide me to room 915.”
“Yes. “This way.”
The 9th floor was the men’s room. The hallways were narrow and there were many rooms, but the whole place was filled with the sound of snoring. Simon was assigned a room near the end.
“This is the room.”
“It’s good.”
A table on the bed.
Toilet inside.
It was a room that had everything it needed.
“Then rest comfortably.”
The man who guided me said so and slowly closed the door. At that time, Simon grabbed his shoulder and said before the door closed.
“Right?”
“Yes yes?”
“Why are you here?”
Simon sighed softly.
“Serne.”
“Oh my goodness.”
A soft female voice rang out from the man’s mouth. Soon, the man grinned and made a motion that seemed to remove something from his head, and his appearance immediately changed.
“Isn’t it powerful, Simon?”
Ivory hair fluttered and a fresh scent wafted out.
Charisma and bewitching movements like a queen with light green eyes.
It was the real Cerne Eindark.
What kind of situation is this? Simon said, feeling his head hurt.
“…It’s obviously a mission entrusted to me and Merida from Kizen, but what’s going on in Cerne’s Ghost Palace?”
“Hehe.”
Cerne smiled and sat down lightly on Simon’s bed, crossing her legs.
“I also received a request and came here. “I’m in the process of sneaking in and investigating.”
“Is this a task entrusted to you by Keygen?”
“That’s rain. wheat.”
Request issue among Keygen 3rd graders.
As I will reveal again, there are many cases where requests between 3rd graders collide or fights occur. Simon said with a stern face.
“I don’t want us to come all the way to a foreign country and clash with each other.”
“I agree. So, you revealed your identity first, right? “Even the ‘feathers’ were deliberately shown in the lobby.”
Cerne smiled softly and opened her mouth.
“Kizen probably told Simon to help the Ghost Princess shed her hair, right?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t reveal the details of the mission.”
“I am the opposite.”
She stretched and continued speaking.
“Arrest and neutralize the ghost princess who cooperates with the 1st Corps commander. After neutralizing it, delay as much as possible to prevent the ghosts from escaping from the Ghost Palace.”
“…!”
Surprisingly, there were some similarities to Simon’s top secret mission.
However, what was clearly different was the fact that they treated the Ghost Princess as a traitor, as if it was natural.
“Serne, nothing has yet been revealed about the cooperation between the 1st Corps commander and the Ghost Princess.”
“Sure. So, for now, I’m going to the Ghost Palace to investigate. “I guess I arrived two weeks earlier than Simon?”
She opened her palm.
“I can turn into someone else and use my feathers to control others, but it’s not easy to enter the Ghost Palace. “The security is so tight.”
“….”
“But Simon and Merida were officially invited by the Ghost Princess.”
She pointed to Simon.
“So, will you cooperate?”
After the joint mission with Juul, this time it is a joint mission with Cerne.
Cernet is not a person who moves simply because of school grades or grades. He only takes on and carries out missions that are beneficial to him or the ivory tower.
Why did she take on this mission?
“Let me ask you two questions.”
Simon said.
“What do you plan to do if the Ghost Princess turns out to be a traitor to the Dark Alliance?”
“We will find Tenerife’s body, insert a feather into her nape, and neutralize her homunculus. After that, we will have to work hard on the main body and find the next ghost princess.”
“If you want to become a ghost princess…”
“Does that fall into one of two questions?”
Simon Ah. He made a noise and then shook his head.
“That’s not true.Second question.”
“yes.”
“What if Tenerife is not a traitor?”
Cerne smiled brightly.
“I should make it all go away and find the client who provided me with false information and put him to death, right?”
