Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner – 414

Episode 414
The old woman smiled regretfully and held Simon’s hand.
“Then let’s start with this young man.”
“……Ah thank you.”
The old woman took Simon’s hand and placed it on the crystal ball then folded her own hands on top of it.
“Close your eyes.”
Simon closed his eyes. The old woman’s hand swept over the crystal ball and Simon’s hand.
“What do you see now?”
“yes? I can’t see anything.”
“I guess so.”
Because it was his first time seeing a fortune Simon waited with a pounding heart. When I was asked to close my eyes did I see an image forming in my mind?
“Oh!”
At that time an exclamation flowed from the old woman’s mouth.
“I can see it! I can see it! I can see the youth!”
The old woman was watching.
“Fly! I am! You are flying high in the sky!”
The old woman kept saying ‘Nanda!’ for a while. ‘It’s flying!’ The same story was repeated.
Simon who was holding his hand waited in silence and Lethe was leaning against the wall looking around with puzzled eyes.
“I’m flying! Fly! What do you call that! A bar with wheels!”
“Warrior?”
“Not that! Merchants dragging their luggage…”
“wagon?”
“Yes a cart! You are being dragged in a cart!”
“……You said you were flying in the sky?”
It was an unpredictable development.
“Uh oh oh!”

At that time the old woman’s voice became louder. And with your own mouth-
“bang!”
I opened my eyes with an explosion sound.
“That’s it.”
“???”
Simon pulled out his hand and looked confused.
Lethe said ‘Wow’ and clapped a few times then stood up.
“It was fun. Well then grandma let’s go now…”
“Oh my! Miss you should try it too! Where are you going?”
At the same time the old woman forcibly grabbed Lethe’s hand and placed it on the crystal ball.
Lethe had no choice but to sit down with a shocked expression on her face.
“Close your eyes.”
Lethe reluctantly closed her eyes.
“What do you see?”
“……Of course I can’t see anything.”
“Oh oh oh oh! okay! I can see it! I can see the lady!”
It was the same repertoire as before.
“Fly. It’s me! It’s flying high in the sky!”
Even this was the same repertoire.
‘Where are we both flying to?’
As Simon watched thinking about this the old woman’s expression suddenly became crumpled.
“That’s terrible!”
“yes?”
“blood. blood. Blood everywhere! Blood splattered and the sound of weapons clashing. flames. And I hear screams and moans soaked in pain. Many people are lying motionless on the floor.”
Lethe whose eyes were closed frowned slightly.
“ah! iced coffee! There is a young lady standing in that place of blood and slaughter!”
The old woman’s voice grew louder almost as if she was running out of breath.
“The lady is making strange hand gestures! Then the people who had fallen on the floor and were cold started to wake up. Then I picked up my weapon again…!”
Pot!
Simon was surprised.
Lethe suddenly pulled her hand out of the crystal ball. Then he glared at the old woman menacingly with his bloodshot eyes.
“Le lete?”
She suddenly got up from her seat turned around and walked straight into the alley.
“Sorry! I’ll wake up first.”
The old woman held up the crystal ball and smiled as if she was used to it.
“Good luck. May the goddess’s blessing be with you.”
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

Lethe bit her lower lip and walked down the alley without hesitation.
Simon quickly followed and grabbed her wrist.
“Lethe! wait!”
Pop!
She roughly shook Simon’s hand away. Simon said blocking his way.
“calm down! What’s wrong?”
“You heard it too!”
Lethe shouted with glaring eyes.
“That scene just now! He was a necromancer who raised corpses and made them fight! I’m that horrible necromancer? I?”
Simon gave an expression of regret.
When she was young she lost her parents due to a necromancer’s attack and became a lost child.
At that time the sight of necromancers raising my dead parents and villagers into skeletons remained a terrible trauma.
It would be difficult if Lethe’s hatred of necromancers which had been quiet for a while flared up again.
“It was just something I heard for fun. There’s no need to take it too seriously.”
“There is a level of listening that is just for fun! I can handle whatever happens in my future! But why is it like that…!”
Simon calmly approached with his palms open.
“Let’s stop the investigation and return to the dorm. Take a break there-”
“Don’t touch my body! Necroman…!!”
Lethe who was about to pour out her fiery anger stopped.
“…….”
“…….”
Lethe was silent for a while her shoulders shaking then she rubbed her face with her palm and let out a long sigh.
“sorry.”
Jerk.
Lethe turned her back.
“investigation. Let’s continue.”
“……Are you okay?”
“yes.”
She said with a weak smile.
“I’m just a little tired.”

The last place the two headed to was the city’s Yeongju Castle.
but.
-The Lord says he is currently in an emergency meeting and it is difficult to meet with him. sorry.
In the end the two had to leave Yeongju Castle without any income.
Lethe shrugged.
“That’s right~ There’s no way the lord would meet us outsiders when the city is like this.”
“Yes my thoughts were short.”
Lethe just acted naturally as if the situation had never happened. Simon was relieved to see her quickly calming down.
Of course I’ll have to take the time to check if it’s really okay.
Now I really decided to go to the accommodation provided by Israfil and rest.
They said it was not an ordinary inn but surprisingly it was one of the largest lodgings in the city.
“It’s already been 6 months and 2 days since I’ve been a customer!”
The hostel owner greeted us with a big smile.
Simon looked around. It was very cold inside the building with the cold rushing in. There was also breath coming out of my mouth.
“The room is warm so don’t worry.”
The hostel owner spoke quickly.
“The building is this big but there are no customers?”
“Haa a few years ago it was crowded with no empty rooms. There’s nothing we can do right now because the city feels like it would rather die. First of all we cleaned the rooms of both guests!”
The owner of the inn looked at Simon and Lethe in turn and smiled strangely.
“Have a fun and hot time! Now here’s the key.”
The hostel owner gave Simon the room key and left saying he had other business to attend to.
Originally meals were available for an additional fee but it seemed difficult to provide them due to the lack of food in the city.
The two climbed the stairs to the third floor.
Simon clattered and held up the key he had received from the hostel owner.
“uh?”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Now I know this.”
Simon smiled awkwardly.
“There is only one key.”
“!”
Lethe made a cold expression and quickly took the key from Simon’s hand and checked it with her own eyes.
“No really! Even if there are no customers how are you going to get things done?”
Lethe quickly turned her back and went down the stairs at breakneck speed.
“mister! There is only one room!”
She screamed loudly but the owner of the accommodation had already gone out.
Lethe trudged back.
“Oh really-!”
“Let’s go in first. There is only one key but once inside there may be multiple rooms.”
A little color returned to her face.
“……Well you’re right. If that’s the case well.”
The two walked to the third floor again. We chatted a lot.
“When you go in you have to take a shower first. It would be nice to have a booth.”
“This is a rich city so it appears to have sewage systems. I think the water will come out properly.”
“I’m glad. When you move from Sky Island to another village you can clearly feel the difference in infrastructure.”
“It was my first time going to a public bathhouse in Kizen. Ah it has arrived. Open the door.”
Simon arrived in front of the door put the key in the key hole and turned it. Snap! The door opened with a sound.
Let Lethe go inside first and Simon comes inside closing the door.
“what’s the matter?”
Lethe stopped walking and stood silently. Simon also went inside but his movements became rigid next to her.
“…….”
“…….”
It was a room filled with strange red lights.
The wallpaper was a red tone and the spacious room had one large bed. Even the bathroom wall attached to the room was made of glass so you could just look inside.
Simon’s face turned red.
And later I realized one thing.
Israfil was very well prepared throughout this trip.
“……haha. Ahaha.”
Lethe stepped back in disbelief. Then he held the door of the room with both hands and said one thing.
“good bye.”
thud!
After Lethe closed the door I heard footsteps running somewhere.
When Simon opened the door again and looked into the hallway he saw her full of anger and embarrassment roughly pulling on the doorknob of another room.
“No really! Even if you cross the line don’t you think it’s too much? Fuck you!”
bang! bang!
I soon checked all the rooms but they were all locked. The only thing open in this entire accommodation was that one red room.
“……Ugh.”
Lethe who was shaking her head in frustration suddenly opened her eyes and raised her legs. Simon shouted in horror.
“Lethe! wait for a sec!”
“You have that room to yourself!”
Lethe gritted her teeth.
“Even if I die I can’t sleep in the same room as a man!”
bang!
In the end it was Lethe who broke the doorknob with force and entered the next room. Simon hurriedly followed.
“What are you doing! I have to compensate for all of this… Huh?”
But the inside of the next room was much worse.
The floor and bed were covered in dust and cobwebs hung down. It was crazy cold because there was no heating which was an added bonus.
Lethe seeing a centipede writhing and crawling on the floor slammed the door shut.
And after a while.
“…….”
It was Lethe who had entered the red room on her own feet and was sitting quietly with her butt on the bed.
Simon said with a smile.
“You say you can’t sleep in the same room even if you die?”
“……Shut up.”
Simon who had been laughing out loud sat down on the bed and groaned. I kept walking and my legs hurt so much.
“Ugh I’m tired. I want to sleep quickly.”
Tuk!
As Simon said that a pillow fell on the floor in front of his eyes. When Simon quickly turned his head Lethe bowed her head.
“good night.”
“No wait a minute! Not this!”
Even Simon who is very patient couldn’t stand this. Lethe hugged the only blanket as if to protect herself and covered herself.
“What’s wrong man! So did I grow up in the same bed as the necromancer?!”
“If you’re going to make me sleep on the floor at least give me a blanket!”
“Then you see my whole body!!”
Wow Wow this time it was two people fighting over sleeping issues.
After 30 minutes of discussion and fighting it was finally decided that Simon would go down and that Lethe would give up all the blankets. Lethe decided to cover herself with a gown and sleep.
“How did I end up like this… Goddess why do you keep giving me this ordeal?”
Leaving her praying on the bed Simon took out his bag and was unpacking.
“Lete do you want to wash first?”
“…….”
Lethe opened her eyes after praying and said coldly.
“Don’t be a rip-off.”
“?”
Lethe also felt like a chimney wanting to wash herself in warm water.
No I really wanted to wash up.
but.
“Common sense tells you that you can wash here!”
She grabbed the bathroom door and shook it.
The interior was clearly visible from the room because of the glass and most importantly there was no lock on the door.
It was hard to even call it a door.
“then.”
Simon stood up.
“I’ll wash first.”
Lethe made a shocked expression.
