Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

Episode 41. On the way home and Salem Yedidiah

“You went in and got it yourself?”

“yes. It’s a long story, but the bottom line is.”

After that, Adrias’ stories to Ivy were the same as Vivian herself remembered.

‘Adrias is a fairy right.’

Vivian tried to calm her excitement, holding her mouth and her collar.

What should I do now? What should I say to Adrias… … ?

“Has it been explained now?”

“… … .”

“If you have nothing more to say, I’ll be gone.”

“… … okay. sorry.”

“it’s okay.”

Adrias left the gym with those words.

After he left, Ivy stood there in thought, then suddenly opened her mouth.

“there. I knew you were hiding from earlier. Who is it?”

At Ivy’s words, Vivian cautiously stepped out of the pillar.

Ivy, who didn’t know that Vivian was there, opened her eyes wide and spoke calmly.

“Since you are also involved, it doesn’t matter too much. Did you hear everything?”

nod

Ivy asked as Vivian nodded.

“Is what Adrias just said true?”

nod

“okay. okay. I guess I’ve been sensitive lately, so I caught someone worthless. If you can, forget what happened here.”

Ivy spat on the floor once, rubbed it with her feet, and left.

When she left, only Vivian was left alone in the empty gymnasium, staring blankly at the floor.

‘Adrias… … Fairy.’

Because of that, lives were saved.

Actually, the past didn’t change, but many of the disgusting feelings that would have plagued her had disappeared.

I am special.

Just that one fact alone made it feel like a thin film that had been wrapped around her had been peeled off.

‘therefore… … .’

He had to repay the favor.

Despite the considerable measles, the evaluation of other subjects continued.

Still, thanks to my hard work, I was able to get a good grade in the middle in all subjects.

“thank god.”

I let out a sigh of relief as I checked my grades.

Of course, thanks to the Everlast Potion, a huge amount of money will come in every month.

However, I felt better when I thought that the scholarship was coming in, perhaps because I had lived in poverty.

‘I heard that Amy moved to the Apple Tree Mansion.’

In fact, a letter came from Amy a few days ago.

There was nothing special about it, but there were stories about how the move had been completed, how it had been a long time since I met Lupin, and how the family had moved in and lived together.

One peculiar thing is that he told me to come home as soon as possible, but I don’t know what happened.

‘The evaluation is all over and tomorrow is the weekend, so let’s go and see it.’

I decided to take a break from time to time, so it wouldn’t be bad to stop by the house once in a while.

Besides, there are still about two weeks left for the year-end event to take place.

That’s how I prepared to head for the apple tree mansion that exists only in my memory.

* * *

The Welton Manor, where the Apple Tree Mansion was located, was a small piece of land southwest of the capital ruled by Viscount Lamar Welton.

He wasn’t a noble that left a particularly impressive impression on him, so his memories are fuzzy now, and he just remembers that the land he ruled was better than he thought.

‘I think I ran around every day within the territory.’

I wonder how Adrias, who was so lively, grew up to be such a sullen guy.

It probably changed after I realized that my hair was getting thicker and my weight was leaning.

Since Rodlen Academy is located on the eastern side of the capital, it took a while to reach the Welton Manor in the southwest of the capital.

On the road that took about 4 hours, I soothed my free time by reading a book as usual.

thud!

‘what?’

Suddenly, I looked up at the ceiling of the train at the sound I heard above my head.

Did you hear something heavy falling?

As the thought passed by, the noise came again.

blank. blank. blank. blank.

It sounded like someone was walking on a train.

The sound continued to the door of the train, and soon the door opened with a rattling sound.

‘What is that?’

The one who opened the door was an ordinary-looking man.

The man with an impression that can be seen everywhere was so confident that it seemed like a lie to come down from the roof of a running train.

He came in shaking off his clothes and handed the gold coin to the flight attendant who was looking at him with a dumbfounded expression.

“Here’s the train fare.”

Then, after looking around calmly, he found me and raised his hand happily.

“Hey! long time no see.”

me?

am i talking

All the eyes of the passengers around me were on me.

When I was feeling both absurd and embarrassed at the same time, he approached me with a smile.

I fell into thought, feeling the emotions that naturally settled down.

‘Who is it? black magician? assassin? mercenary?’

When all sorts of thoughts run through your brain and you feel that you need to do something about it.

“what. have you forgotten me This is a little disappointing.”

Someone came to mind in his attitude and tone.

no way?

“fat… … .”

… … Rem?

I couldn’t bear to say the name of the bounty on which a huge amount was placed.

However, Salem sat next to me with a bright smile, as if that alone conveyed his meaning.

“It’s a little late to notice, but I can overlook that.”

“How the hell did you know I was here?”

“You cheeky bastard. At times like this, I’m asking for your regards first.”

He tossed a gold coin to each of the train guards who approached after him and put his arm around my shoulder.

“How are you these days? How have you been?”

“yes.”

“Hmm? Probably not. You must have heard the news on my way?”

Are you talking about Kidwell’s raid?

To be honest, it was the mercenary duo that directly targeted me, so this raid didn’t really touch me.

Rather, it was considered a good happening because it confirmed Timur’s strength.

“It wasn’t particularly dangerous.”

“okay? Oh come. Then you won’t need much.”

“yes? What do you mean by that?”

“Thanks to you, I threatened the guy who bought the job and decided to extend the toy rental for a week. I was so grateful that I came here… … .”

“I never said I didn’t need it.”

There is no reason to turn down something Salem has to offer.

I hurriedly cut him off and gave my opinion strongly.

Perhaps that was funny, Salem laughed to himself and shook his head.

“I get it. Hey. Where else were you going than that?”

“… … I just came because I had some business.”

“So you ask what the business is.”

Telling Salem where my house is?

am i crazy

Of course, with Salem’s ability, he would be able to quickly find out where I live as well as my family, but I was a little reluctant to say it myself.

“I was going on a trip to cool off a bit.”

“okay? Well done. While you cool down, I’ll look at your magic a little bit.”

I was a little taken aback by Salem’s unexpected words, but I nodded.

“thank you.”

“So where is your destination?”

Trying not to notice the train ticket with the destination written on it, which I had tucked in the pocket of my jacket, I groped around.

“Probably the next stop.”

“okay? It’s coming soon. Then wake me up when you arrive. I sleep a little.”

After saying that, Salem closed his eyes and fell asleep in less than three seconds.

It’s 30 to 40 minutes at the longest until the next stop I said.

I quietly sighed and finished reading the book I was reading.

* * *

Salem and I, who got off at the Condit estate unexpectedly, stopped by a suitable restaurant and ate.

“what? Is that the only thing you learned?”

Salem, who had been drinking beer since broad daylight, was stunned when he heard my story.

I understand him well enough.

How much did you curse inside when you first saw the ability window?

Besides, since he was building almost from the basics, he had no time to learn other magic.

“Hmm. I didn’t know it would be like this. How the hell did you survive?”

“I was lucky.”

He didn’t really question my words.

In the first place, as if it were just spit out, he was lost in thought, listening to my answer.

“good. Originally, I was going to tell you something else, but you won’t be able to accept it.”

He drank down his beer as if he had put his thoughts together, then burst into exclamations of cool exclamation.

“I will teach you the very basics.”

“I will learn anything if you teach me.”

I was still thirsty for learning.

I also take lectures at the academy, but the content is much higher than the level I need to learn, so I only scraped together a few theories rather than actually helping.

If I didn’t even do that, I’d probably get a failing grade in all reviews.

“I’ll finish eating for now, so I’ll teach you around dinnertime.”

No, I would never have thought that a demon chasing the truth would actually be this lazy.

I knew he was hungry for knowledge, but it wasn’t what I thought.

After finishing our meal, we walked around the city and enjoyed sightseeing, not sightseeing, and climbed a low hill near the city in the evening.

“I will tell you here.”

“Are you sure you want to say that?”

“If I want to, you just take it and eat it.”

“yes.”

He picked up the vicious snake on his back and started painting on the floor.

“Originally, this is what I would teach you.”

I tilted my head looking at the picture he drew.

“What is this?”

“Tsk. You must be really talented. Do you remember the last time I used it when I killed the warlocks who were trying to attack you guys?”

“yes. Just a simple mana wave… … .”

“okay. That’s what I was trying to tell you.”

He tossed the bottom of the hill up and down again.

However, no matter how I looked at it, it was just scribbles and a few letters that I couldn’t understand.

“Collect and explode. Like this. Then, even a simple mana wave could explode the opponent. What if I use this for magic? Or when applied to physical activity?”

I don’t know what it is, but it seemed like it would show tremendous destructive power if the mana wave principle he used was used for magic or for body activation with the knight’s mana.

The problem is that I can’t learn even if I tell you how to use it.

Salem sighed when I replied that it would be just great.

“I am not a good teacher either, but you are not a good student either. good. Just know that this exists.”

I looked at his words with the momentum to memorize the scribbles drawn on the floor.

You may not be able to use it right now, but you might be able to use it someday.

‘Because I have evolution.’

It was good to know everything first as it has the characteristics of a long-term plastic surgery.

Even if it wasn’t like that, it was good to memorize it anyway as it was a graffiti containing the heart of Salem.

“Originally, I was going to teach you the basics, but watch what you can’t learn anyway. To be honest, it’s a major bleeding service that’s bigger than a toy week, but you’re the guy I like, so I’ll take care of it.”

“thank you.”

This time, I sincerely greeted you.

In the first place, even Karon, the self-appointed teacher, hadn’t spoken to me lately, but I was in a position to be grateful for even trying to teach him.

“Now I’m going to delete this and give you something you can use. Maybe this can help you too.”

Salem smiled broadly, saying he was confident this time.
