Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner – 419



Episode 419

Two children caught playing hide and seek.

The girl trembled perhaps because she was scared of the unfamiliar outsider but the boy seemed to be more curious than afraid and was busy observing Simon and Lethe.

“hi?”

Lethe bent down and came a little closer to the children’s eye level.

“This sister and this guy here are the teachers who will teach you~”

Simon glared at her from the side but Lethe lightly ignored him and continued speaking.

“I’m going to study with the teachers to my heart’s content starting tomorrow. Did you miss me already?”

Lethe stroked the boy’s head.

“Have fun from now on.”

“……teacher?”

Simon quickly caught the girl’s pupils shaking at the word teacher. The extroverted boy was just smiling because he enjoyed being petted.

“Well it’s late now so stop playing and go home. Got it?”

“yes! teacher!”

The boy answered bravely and walked out holding the girl’s hand.

The girl glanced back at the two people and when she made eye contact with Simon she quickly lowered her head and ran away.

* * *

As I unpacked and cleaned up my surroundings it quickly became dark.

“hmm.”

Simon was thinking about the reaction of the girl he saw earlier.

“It seems like something strange is happening in this town.”

“Were you scared?”

The friendly tone she used when dealing with children had returned to her usual Lete tone as if it had never happened before.

“Saint Israfil said that she felt great evil. It’s natural to be cautious.”

“I am also a saint. There is no need to be scared.”

Lethe yawned and continued.

“I won’t search today the first day because I had a hard time climbing the mountain.”

“huh. Today let’s focus on tomorrow’s observation class.”

“That too-”

As she was speaking Lethe’s pupils suddenly became prominent like those of a cat.

“!”

At the same time Simon also witnessed it.

Outside the window in the darkness –

The sight of a woman shedding red bloody tears glaring at the two people.

‘Snow woman?!’

The moment when your whole body becomes stiff with fear.

Wedge!

Lethe waved her arm. Holy arrows immediately rushed in breaking the window and flying away.

The ghosts also disappeared at the same time.

“Shall I chase you?”

“I’ve just warned you. It seems like the people in this town really like to eavesdrop.”

Of course as soon as Lethe entered the dorm she set up a soundproof magic circle. Simon also saw that and said Israel’s name without any hesitation.

“Let’s prepare for tomorrow’s observation class.”

She yawned and moved her fingers. The broken window shards had come back up and were sticking together.

“It looks like you’re under a lot of suspicion.”

“……okay.”

I was so tired from climbing the mountain but for some reason I felt like I wouldn’t be able to sleep well today.

In this village the only people we could rely on were each other.

* * *

The next morning.

The observation class has begun.

Abnormal Climate: The relationship between the snow woman Kula and Eskail Village which I saw last night. Coupled with fatigue Simon’s mind was a bit confused.

“Okay everyone! Say hello to your teacher!”

“Hello!”

The moment Petria saw the children she brought home all her worries seemed to melt away.

All the children were as pretty as angels.

‘It’s really the cutest time.’

From plump cheeks to bulging eyes and full of energy.

Simon listened with a smile as Petria introduced the children.

Two boys.

Matthew 4 years old and Ali 5 years old.

Three girls.

4-year-old Sophie 5-year-old Anda and 5-year-old Seah.

Among them the children who were caught playing hide and seek last night were 4-year-old Matthew and Sophie.

And 5-year-old Ali Anda Sea all of whom had gray hair were children of the village’s ruling class the ‘Mizenasi’. Even the clothes he wore were cute.

“Hello everyone?”

Lethe welcomed the children warmly.

“I’m Teacher Leah. And this is Mr. Sean.”

She folded her hands and placed them on her belly button.

“Then shall we start by learning how to say hello? Follow along! Hands on the belly button!”

When dealing with children Lete had different strengths in her accent and pronunciation. As she placed her hand on her belly button and waited the children followed suit.

“If you say ‘Greetings!’ in this position everyone will say ‘Hello teacher~’. Got it?”

“yes!”

“I’ll start from the beginning! Hands on the belly button!”

Good! Good!

The children put their hands on their belly buttons.

“greeting!”

“Hello~ Teacher!”

Simon looked at Lethe’s back with an admiring smile.

‘Why is this guy so good?’

From easy-to-hear pronunciation to rhythm-like gestures. And even exaggerated facial expressions.

This is not a skill that has been handled with children once or twice.

The adults of the village who were watching from afar were also quietly nodding.

“Well Miss Leah brought something from the city for you. Ta-da!”

And what she took out of her backpack was a set of seven colorful paints and a notebook. The children’s eyes turned when they saw that.

“Coloring game!!”

“please!”

“Give it to me first!”

The children rushed to Lete. Lethe quickly lifted the paint set above her head.

The kids rarely listen. One of the mizenashi even looked at the adults and begged them to give it to them quickly. He was clever for a 5-year-old to know how to subdue his teacher with the help of his parents.

But Lethe was not one to be shaken to this degree.

“everyone! Would you like to receive a coloring set?”

“Yes~!!”

It was a cry that made my ears drop.

“great. So what do you need to do to get what you want? Should I ask the teacher? How can I please?”

Good job.

So good.

Before I knew it all the children in the village were holding out their hands neatly and saying ‘Teacher! He was shouting ‘Please!’

Smiles also bloomed on the faces of the children who eventually received what they wanted.

“Today is the first time so I’ll draw whatever I want to my heart’s content! It’ll be exciting right?”

So in the morning I mainly did coloring.

Of course I also had to exercise for my growing body. We put our hands on each other’s shoulders and played the sacred train game.

“The train is leaving!”

“There is a reindeer man ahead! Stop!”

Lete’s every word brings laughter and laughter.

‘…It’s a bit embarrassing but the kids seem to be having fun.’

Simon was clapping his hands hard to the rhythm.

It was Simon’s job to sing the Divine Train song and become an animal friend. Each person is performing 5 roles.

“hey. Mr. Sean?”

Lethe sneaked up and gently pinched Simon’s waist.

“Don’t show off and do it properly.”

“I’m doing my best too!”

“Try to be professional as if your real job is to teach children.”

Lethe said that while grumbling but when she approached the children her expression completely changed again and she smiled brightly.

‘You’re so good at it. really.’

So lunch time.

Because Lethe’s skills were so outstanding I thought adults would trust her and take her home. but.

“Oh the elders say they want to see divine training.”

Petria said hesitantly. Lethe gave a disapproving look.

“No there is an order to everything in education but is it sacred training? It’s too early for kids.”

“Sorry! sorry! You insisted on seeing it now…”

Now it has been revealed why the village adults brought Teacher Priest in from outside.

They wanted to raise their children as priests.

First of all even though these five children were young they were able to respond to mana and manifest pure elemental magic.

Perhaps because it was an area rich in raw mana many geniuses were born but adults hoped that at least one of the children would grow up to be a priest who could use divinity.

It was obvious why they wanted a priest.

The presence of a doctor was essential in the village and if the villagers were injured or sick they needed someone to treat them. In the Holy Federation priests naturally perform this role.

However Escail is an isolated and closed village.

Even if a sick patient comes forward there is a high possibility that the Kula which maintains the worst relationship will not accept the patient. Going beyond Kula to other areas also consumes a considerable amount of time and money.

The moment a disease spreads the village is over. People would have wanted to have a priest somehow.

Lethe and Simon went into an emergency response meeting ahead of afternoon classes.

“Ah~ I really don’t like any of them. People of this village.”

Lethe grumbled.

“No matter how genius they are are you trying to make kids who don’t know anything do something like that? They don’t think that they can become priests by going through the 19 penances and the Sacred Academy.”

“Then you have to join the Deva Church and become a member of Afnel. These people want to stay in the village.”

Lethe sighed once and opened her mouth.

“It’s a parent’s order so you have to follow it. I’ll have to try combining play and divinity well.”

* * *

“Okay everyone. What is this? braided!”

As planned Lethe combined play and divinity and showed it to the children but the moment they saw divinity the children’s expressions all hardened.

“I hate poetry!”

“scared!”

Some even showed strong rejection. Lethe glanced at the adults with a cold expression.

A moderate amount of sanctity is not harmful to the general public. It has many more positive effects such as healing wounds restoring stamina or giving strength.

But in the end divinity is also a foreign object to ordinary people.

If you accept too much divinity your body will not be able to withstand it. In particular sensitive children who are still growing have a weak tolerance for divinity. Nonetheless these reactions were heterogeneous.

In the end when Lethe took Petria outside and made her confess it seemed that the elderly people who were in a hurry due to illness were somewhat forcing the children to contact the divine. So the children were afraid just by looking at it.

“Anyway it is a small number of greedy old people who are ruining the world.”

Lethe said angrily and approached Simon.

“how is it?”

“It must be difficult for me to get rejected even though I only showed a little bit of divinity.”

“If it’s a small amount it’s no problem right?”

“That’s right. But the mental problem is too big. Divinity is a power that manifests through strong faith but if you have bad feelings about divinity itself due to childhood trauma it will be impossible to become a priest forever.”

What he meant was that overcoming the trauma about divinity was a priority.

“Leave it to me.”

“? What are you trying to do?”

Simon approached the children and smiled.

“hello. This is teacher Sean everyone!”

The children looked at Simon with wary eyes as if they thought he would touch the divinity again. I have already closed my mind.

“There are animal friends who want to play with you now. Shall we meet again?”

However the children’s expressions changed dramatically when they heard the words “animal friends.”

Simon opened the sacred subspace and took out the divine beast.

should.

-Yaaaaaaaa!

-Nyan! Nyang!

They were Shinsoo White and Black.

The children shouted excitedly.

“It’s meow!”

“Meow!!”

Rumble!

The children gathered around screaming and started touching and stroking the cat. Simon sat next to him and began teaching.

“embrace. Shinsu doesn’t like it when you touch and pinch him that hard.”

Anda who was hugging Hayang looked at Simon with sulking eyes as if telling him not to disturb her.

Simon grinned.

“If you keep teasing her like that Hayang might not want to play with Anda.”

Anda’s pupils shook sharply at those words.

“Then what should I do?”

“Try gently brushing the fur with your palm like this.”

Simon demonstrated. When I gently stroked its fur the white cat made a purring sound.

“teacher! White is making a loud noise!”

“huh. It feels good right? This is how to be a real friend.”

We helped children learn naturally without forcing it.

The baby divine beasts also did not dislike these little humans who came out of subspace for the first time in a long time and dealt with them properly.

Shinsu and the children were full of energy. The children were extremely happy but the adults’ expressions were not so good.

‘Yes yes. When are you going to do divine training?’

Simon raised a nova in his palm.

Application of ‘Holy Bolt’ a basic attack white magic technique. I removed the attack power and just combined the divinity.

This white snowball-like thing was placed on a plate.

-meow! meow!

“teacher! White and Black keep crying!”

“It’s because I’m hungry.”

Simon smiled and continued.

“Divine beasts eat clean divinity. Who wants to feed the cat?”

The children looked at the divinity and looked hesitant.

White and Black escaped from the children’s arms and meowed in front of the table where Shin Seong climbed.

-Give it to me quickly!

He looked anxiously at Simon and the children and waved his big front paws.

The children’s hearts were shaken by that pitiful sight.

“I want to give it to you.”

At that time Sophie the timid girl playing hide and seek walked forward.

Simon grinned and handed the plate of divinity to Sophie.

“ah…….”

Her gaze turned to the divine.

It stung and hurt when it entered the body but when I held it in my hand it felt as cozy as warm snow.

-Meow!

Did he notice that he was going to be fed? The two kittens sat in front of Sophie and waited patiently.

Soon Sophie was the first to give a blessing in front of Hayang.

Yum!

Hayang swallowed Shinsung in one bite.

“Wow!”

Hayang’s body floated in the air and was enveloped in a halo of light.

The shape changed as if it was about to change into something.

‘The transformation time has definitely gotten longer these days.’

Could it be that the awakening of the divine beast is slowly getting closer? Or is it because it is a sacred federation and the environment is good?

The owner Simon turned on the happy circuit.

But eventually the transformation wore off and he popped back into the shape of a kitten. White who landed on the floor jumped up and down with excitement.

-Give me more! more!

The black cat also cried rubbing its body against Sophie’s leg.

-Give me too! me too!

The children who had just seen Hayang’s transformation scene flocked there as if it had never happened before.

“Mr. Sean! I want to give it to you too!”

“me too!”

Children struggling with their arms. Simon grinned and put to use what he had learned from Lethe.

“I said what should I do if I want to ask for a favor?”

The children who were having a tantrum shouted all at once.

“teacher! Please!”

Through the children’s play with Shinsu the children gradually began to overcome their trauma about Shinsu.

Of course the one dying now was Simon who had to continue extracting divinity.

Lethe who was watching with her arms crossed laughed.

‘…It’s pretty good.’

The adults in the village were also clapping their hands and cheering as if they were very satisfied.

It was a problem that no external teacher could solve. Lethe opened her mouth.

“Petra.”

“Ah yes! ostrich.”

“Tell those people. If we forcibly inject divinity into our children’s bodies one more time we will give up our divinity training. From now on leave all sacred training to us.”

“yes! I’ll tell you right away!”

The two watched with smiling faces the children playing with the divine beasts and Simon sweating profusely from extracting the sacred beasts next to him.
