Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 322. Adrias’ counterattack]

The atmosphere was unusual.

The three frozen fourth graders stared at Maximin without even blinking.

“Maximin Cronell? The continent’s strongest swordsman?”

Rather, ignorant Benjamin asked with a curious expression.

“okay. He is the instructor in charge of this evaluation that I invited with difficulty. I have other things to do, so listen closely and follow me around.”

“no no. for a moment!”

Hearing my words, Serena broke the ice and shouted.

“Professor? Are you kidding? Is that person really Maximin Cronell?”

“Is it because you don’t carry the coffin on your back that you don’t recognize it? That’s right.”

Serena just muttered when she said it with a stern face.

“Adrias.”

Oops.

There was only one person who could solve it.

Maximin was looking at me with his arms crossed and a gloomy face.

“Explain how this happened.”

“Shall we talk separately over there for a second?”

I took Maximin to one side.

And then he immediately lowered his head.

“I’m sorry for not telling you earlier. I thought you wouldn’t accept me if I told you…”

“You mean you did it even though you knew I wouldn’t accept it?”

“It’s a bit embarrassing to say such a thing, but those students……”

How should I explain it?

I know that they are playable, and I know the continent’s crisis is about to come, but I was at a loss as to what to say to Maximin.

“Those students are the future.”

“I’m not kidding.”

“Yes, I am serious.”

I took a deep breath and unraveled the information I knew.

“The Empire is about to start a war.”

“…….”

“And the aftermath of that war will not only extend to the empire, but will cover the entire continent. Believe it or not, I’m not lying.”

“What does that have to do with my current job?”

“They will clear up the mess. I brought them out like this because the war came earlier than planned and there was not enough time for the children to grow up.”

“Are you a prophet?”

Even when I heard it, it sounded absurd.

However, the reason why I can say this confidently is because I believe that Maximin is on my side after all.

“It has a similar ability.”

“I don’t think he’s lying, which makes it all the more surprising. How can you say such a thing without lying?”

It seemed that Maximin, like me, judged lies by looking at the reaction of the other person’s body.

“Because I sincerely believe so.”

“Are those children the only ones who can stop the chaos?”

“It is not. But the more preventable cases, the better.”

As I spoke, I thought of the people around me.

“I want to protect everyone. It is my personal desire.”

“To protect that greed, those children are useful.”

It could be pursued like that.

It wasn’t exactly wrong, so I nodded without denying it, and Maximin’s gaze turned to the children.

“Certainly, the talents look great. It is the first time since you that you are talented enough to be able to see talent with the naked eye.”

“Did I?”

“No, not at first. But at some point, it seemed like his talent suddenly went up.”

Should I say that I am a citizen?

It means that everyone was aware of the evolution of their talents.

“Then, in the end, what you want is the growth of those children.”

“That is the reason why I asked Maximin to do this job. Of all the people I can ask for, Maximin is the most trustworthy.”

A man with the title of the continent’s strongest swordsman.

To be honest, even if I summoned all the undead, I still didn’t have the confidence to win.

‘Is it possible if I use sin?’

I wondered if it would be possible to use duplicates instead of just one.

“…….”

Maximin listened to everything I said and just looked at him in silence. I didn’t say anything, so I said quietly.

“After this is over, I will expand the orchard land.”

I was also surprised, but Maximin was running an orchard in the estate.

These days, he and Isabelle tend the orchard or drink only tea.

“I don’t really want to expand. Now is the right time.”

“Then how about this one?”

I desperately shook my head and said.

“You know that Rastilia and I are making a deal, right? Let’s get the seeds of fruits that can only be found in Lastilia.”

“Hmm, plants don’t grow just by planting them in random land. Each plant has a suitable environment. The fruits that only grow in Lastilia have their reasons.”

“Maximin, have you forgotten who I am?”

I smiled confidently.

“That magician. Warlock, too.”

“hmm?”

“As long as seeds are obtained, seed improvement is possible. It may be a bit of a struggle.”

Besides, Rago, a specialist in this field, is now in our territory.

“Hmm…….”

The expressionless Maximin turned into an anguished face. I could see how much he thought of the orchard in his sincere contemplation.

‘To think Maximin of the world would only do a favor with fruit seeds.’

A conclusion has not yet been reached, but I was a little taken aback by the ironic situation.

“If you increase the terms of the deal, I will accept it.”

“What is it?”

“Three types of fruit seeds, plus Rastilia tea seeds, and lastly, hypran flower seeds.”

……This is a bit difficult.

All you have to do is ask for 3 fruit seeds, but hypran flowers are rare even in Rastilia.

And above all Rastilia tea.

As Rastilia elves fanatically love tea, they did not take out Rastilia tea leaves recklessly, but it was very difficult to find seeds.

“All right.”

I still have to

Growing talents to save the world was more important than procuring Rastilia tea seeds.

it will work out somehow.

“Really?”

“If it’s black, then what?”

“I mean, is it possible?”

“We will make it possible. No it is possible.”

Even if I look like this, I am the savior of the world tree.

So much Rastilia tea seeds? save me right away

“The deal is done.”

“thank you.”

I passed one thing.

“ah! Maximin.”

“Tell me.”

“If possible, please just watch from the sidelines. Please do not intervene except when it is really dangerous.”

“I will.”

Even if one of the limbs were cut off, there was no concern. There was already an example of Agatha, so it was possible to put it back on if it was managed well.

“Then thank you. See you again after work.”

After the story with Maximin Maximin, the attention of the students was focused.

“As I said before, follow these two from now on. Learn everything you can learn.”

“You mean to follow Maximin Cronell?”

Louis asked with a serious expression.

“okay. Rather, you should thank me. Who can go hunting for the continent’s strongest swordsman and warlock?”

“But he is wanted by the Empire.”

This was the problem.

These guys think of the Empire as being on the side of justice.

‘Because I did that in the game too.’

Even though I wasn’t on the side of justice, I didn’t think of it as an enemy.

But now, they were enemies to me because I knew that the sins were related to the imperial palace.

‘The last boss fight is related to sin.’

If you block the revenge of sin as much as possible, the final boss fight will become easier.

At the time, I thought it was just a meeting, but now that I think about it, it was a collaboration between the meeting and the empire.

“I do not care.”

Then Chris came out.

“The Empire’s Wanted? What’s wrong with that? Is the title of being wanted by the empire important or is the title of the continent’s strongest swordsman important?”

Louis looked at Chris’ words with a face that didn’t understand.

“Criminal.”

“crime? Louis, you may be better than me at swords, but you are young.”

Chris laughed.

“So what is the crime Maximin Cronell is said to have committed?”

“I killed the Imperial Auror Master and countless knights.”

“Why did you kill him?”

As Chris continued to ask, Louis was speechless.

“That’s…”

“I’m the son of the old Yunor family. But I do not side with the Empire. An excellent prosecutor must have objective insight. If you don’t, it’s like holding a treasured sword in the baby’s hand.”

well done Chris!

I watched the conversation between the two in silence.

“Mmmmm…”

Lewis thought.

Meanwhile, Serena, who was listening to the conversation between the two, asked me.

“Apart from whether you are really Maximin Cronell, are you saying the professor is going somewhere else?”

“okay.”

“I didn’t know you were so irresponsible. What are you going to do if Maximin holds us hostage and threatens the Empire?”

“Maximin? you?”

I laughed at Serena’s words.

“Do you think you can be anything?”

“I am a child of the Estial family.”

“Is that all you have to offer?”

“Ugh! You’re not saying that now!”

You are misunderstanding something big.

“Maximin is an enemy of the empire, not yours.”

“That’s it!”

“No, it is different. Think soberly. Suppose, as you say, you are taken hostage. Do you think the Empire will do something for you?”

“In our family, obviously…!”

“That’s the circumstances of Marquis Erestial, and I mean, do you think the Empire will help? Of course, the Marquis family will take action.”

At my words, Serena also muttered and then fell into thought.

“I’ll say it again, if you don’t want to be evaluated even now, you can go back. I’m here to give you a chance, not to force anything.”

“That professor. Can I go with the professor?”

Benjamin said in a way that Maximin would be fine.

“no.”

“All right.”

He answered right away, but it was impressive to see the grass dying like a dog with its tail down.

“Do not go back. It would be foolish to kick an opportunity like this.”

Chris was the first to comment.

But is that guy talking to me? But why are you half?

“I will also follow the deep will of the professor.”

Benjamin followed suit, and eventually the other two made their decision.

“I’ll do it.”

“I can’t be alone. I’ll do it too.”

Very lucky guys.

This is an experience that becomes your blood and flesh, you guys.

“We will meet again after the evaluation is over. Also, the scoring doesn’t mean much, but I’ll ask the two of them to rate each other first, so be aware. I will give a prize to the first place, so you know that.”

After I finished speaking, I spoke again to Agatha and Maximin separately. Please take a good look at these guys.

“Shall we go?”

After talking with the two of them, I spoke to Vivian.

Vivian nodded and looked somewhere.

“Okay let’s go.”

Jester.

I’ll show you what it means to attack me.

**

“Huh.”

Jester Levan.

A lich who has been living for over 200 years and a warlock who owns the largest faction in the coven.

He was scratching the hat that covered his entire head as if he was in trouble.

‘I’m sure he won’t stay still.’

It should have ended once and for all.

If I knew it would turn out like this, I would have mobilized all my strength to attack

. It was a natural story because it was a floor where you could survive if you lived harshly.

“Jester!”

Just in time, the subordinate who had been sent to scout Cromwell returned.

I sent it because I needed more definite information since I knew that Cromwell’s power was much stronger than I expected…

“Enemies are coming!”

“As expected.”

I was guessing.

In particular, if there was Dwarski in the opponent’s faction, the option of not retaliation could not have existed.

“You must have contacted everyone else, right?”

“That’s right. I already turned it on four days ago. All forces that have not been assembled will arrive within today.”

“Where are the enemies?”

“It looks like it has just started, so it will take quite a while.”

Jester nodded.

Morn Dwalski Luna Pendragon and Salem Yedidiah.

It was obviously a powerful force, but Jester was confident.

‘Even if Morn’s faction joins in, the forces of that faction are in the minority in the first place. It’s good enough.’

The only thing that bothered me was the completely unexpected phantom beast species.

The ghost beast in the form of an unknown giant whale was not something to be ignored at all, although he had only heard about it through reports through his subordinates.

“Adrias Cromwell. You’ve been preparing for it very secretly.”

If we can block this counterattack, we will be able to regain victory.

Jester decided to take a long look at the war situation.

Wow!

“What are you talking about!”

Jester shouted at the sudden explosion.

“Let’s check the fire!”

The place where he was currently located was an empty land near the Magic Castle. Therefore, it was only Adrias’ power that he visited such a place.

“You lied. It had already arrived.”

It was fine yet.

All of his forces will gather soon anyway, and if he holds on until then…

“My Jester!”

“Okay, what’s the situation outside?”

“That’s it…”

The subordinate barely said with a trembling body.

“A sword that seems to be made of white light is flying and attacking.”

“A sword of white light?”

As soon as I heard it, there was a person who came to mind.

But why the hell is he?

“Didn’t you see it wrong?”

“Aaaagh!”

Screams rang out loudly from outside.

At the same time, someone shouted the enemy’s name.

“Evan! It’s Evan von Orleon!”

It was the moment when Jester’s guess, which he thought was impossible, became a reality.
