Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner – 488
by Jessie@AFNCC
Episode 488
The Devil’s castle at the top of the Washburn Mountains.
Originally this was the retreat of Legion Commander Magnus and the headquarters of the 5th Legion.
But to this day no trace of such can be found.
It was just an empty empty castle.
“This is true.”
A middle-aged man looking around an empty castle.
Wearing a feather cape on his shoulders and scratching his forehead with a frown he was a necromancer belonging to Kizen’s ‘Crow’.
“Did he leave long ago?”
Unexpected situation.
Necromancers who knew Magnus’ tendencies could not help but be surprised to learn that he had abandoned the castle and ran away.
The man waved his feather cape and searched around.
This place was quiet and clean. It looks like everything was taken out and moved to another place. What remains is an empty throne without an owner. And this hot spring that smells like sulfur.
The man opened his mouth.
“Check everything downstairs.”
“yes!”
The agents waiting behind bowed their heads.
“Extract clues by any means necessary.”
“All right!”
The agents went downstairs creating afterimages.
The lone crow necromancer took steps and approached the sulfur hot springs.
White smoke was billowing and there was a smell of rotten egg shells. I got down on one knee and lightly touched the tip of my finger to the hot spring and then removed it.
“It’s an unpleasant hobby.”
he muttered.
“yes yes. Right. I feel really bad~”
I heard the sound of people climbing the stairs behind me.

“I wonder how much effort it took to get here and how they knew and ran away in advance.”
Likewise a young man wearing a crow cloak was sauntering along with his hands in his pockets.
His hair was sticking out in strange shapes like the leaves of a plant and in his mouth was a strange twig he had picked up on the side of the road.
“Did you come?”
“It’s obvious isn’t it? Senior~”
He stops walking and grins. I raised the corners of my mouth.
“Information is leaking within Raven.”
“…….”
“You know. ‘garlic’? Was it the necromancer of ‘Needle’? Senior Evangelos was also a follower who was in secret with Magnus. Then there may be more spies within the crow!”
He was walking around giggling and spread his arms.
“I heard that traitor senior joined forces with Magnus to destroy Pentamonium which is currently in session at an academic conference? Then when I got caught my brain exploded!
“…….”
“Oh indeed! I’m sorry! You two have been classmates since the Keygen days right? Did you say you were from special cases number 3 and number 2?”
“Don’t talk nonsense and just focus on your mission.”
The senior necromancer said that and walked away.
“That thing is hard! Don’t you know that if you look around here you won’t find anything~”
My junior took a strong bite of the branch he was chewing on.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
Then teeth marks began to appear all over the castle. Countless teeth marks appeared on the solid bricks and pillars as if they had been bitten.
“It’s very gnashing. My teeth are grinding. I will definitely catch that corps commander who uses such strange tricks. senior.”
Crackle!
Long teeth marks appeared on the wall.
“But just in case! If there really is a spy inside the crow and they are secretly stealing information from Magnus like now.”
Pop.
The tree branch he was holding suddenly broke. He spat it out on the floor and thought coldly.
“I will catch that cub and chew it up without leaving a single piece of flesh behind.”
“Go ahead.”
When the senior spoke with his eyes sparkling the junior shrugged his shoulders.
“Yay yea. How much is the difference in annual leave? I need to explain it to you.”
He turned his back and walked again with an odd gait.
“Ah~ Ah~ If only I had my motivation this investigation would have been a breeze! When are you coming back? Are you going to spend your whole life teaching and cleaning up kids’ poop? Let’s play in the field together!”
Hahahaha!
The senior necromancer sighed as he watched his junior go downstairs with an odd laugh.
‘Why do all those riders have screws missing?’
“Here’s a report!”

At that time a necromancer agent ran over and bowed his head.
“I searched all the way to the basement but there were no clues. Just this.”
The agent held out the evidence with a gloved hand. The necromancer also put on his gloves and examined them.
“It’s hair.”
white hair.
It also had traces of being cut loosely.
“Magnus’ appearance is clearly slim and has white hair. And I said I had long hair that goes down to my waist. Did you cut your hair to prepare for your future escape life?”
“I think so too.”
However it could not be said that it was a great gain considering that it had taken over Magnus’ main base.
“Has there been any contact from ‘them’?”
“There was none.”
“……i get it. Send that hair to headquarters. The remaining personnel should thoroughly investigate whether there is a secret passageway as soon as reinforcements arrive.”
“yes!”
The agents dispersed.
The raven necromancer walked slowly and traced the teeth marks on the wall with his fingertips.

Dresden Royal Library.
This library which occupies an entire building within the ‘royal palace’ was a famous attraction on the continent.
Previous kings of the Kingdom of Dresden were famous for being bookworms and collected expensive books throughout their reign.
The kingdom was so proud of this library that it often claimed that the historical materials it held were no different from the Pentamonium.
Of course there are many rare and important materials that cannot be disclosed to the public so access is currently strictly controlled.
Right here.
“Sera. good morning.”
“yes.”
There was a woman who went to work at the Royal Library wearing black sunglasses and a formal suit.
She seemed familiar passing the guards and magic detector and entering the library.
‘Uhuhu this level of detection magic is simple for me.’
Her blue eyes turned crimson for a moment as she lowered her sunglasses down her nose then returned to their original state.
Her identity is none other than Erzsebet the captain of the 7th Legion.
She infiltrated here under Simon’s orders and stole the personal information and schedule of a librarian working at the palace pretending to be an employee who was away on vacation.
‘I’ve got a date with our corps commander so let’s search hard~’
Her mission is one.
‘Plague Demon Beast Karl’ was Richard’s Ancient Undead in the past. The goal is to find information about the unidentified group that captured and studied him.
For this all she has is materials written in an unknown language salvaged from there.
The key is language.
I planned to search through old books in the Royal Library to find out about this unidentified letter.
The continent has a long history. Before the continental language was unified as it is now many languages were used interchangeably in each country territory and village and it could have been just one of them.
Erzsebet brought books related to lost languages sat in a corner and spread them out. And compared it with the words written in the book taken from Cal’s Dungeon.
‘Neither this nor this.’
It was at that time that she was eagerly leafing through a book.
“Sera!”
A man who appeared to be the superior of ‘Sera’ whom Erzsebet had transformed into suddenly stuck his head out.
“What are you doing here on your break?”
Erzsebet was appalled on the inside but she naturally agreed.
“Oh well. Since I was at home there was nothing to do. There is something like that right? Have fun and do something else legally while everyone else is working! There is nothing more healing than that!”
“Uhm is that so?”
The superior scratched his bald head.
“You seem more eccentric than you seem. I don’t even want to look at work during the holidays.”
“Even though I don’t want to look at my job I love books. I’m going to take this opportunity to read it to my heart’s content.”
“Okay do whatever you want.”
He waved his hand and left.
As Erzsebet sighed in relief her superior suddenly stuck his head out again.
“really! I’m really really sorry while on vacation. Can you please take a look at this? It only takes 5 minutes. Just 5 minutes!”
Yes that would be the main point from the beginning.
Erzsebet stood up with a smile on her face. There was no need to make a big deal out of saying no.
‘Humans live really hard lives.’
Knowing this I came to understand the work of this woman named Sarah before transforming.
Erzsebet followed her superior taking only the books she had brought from Karl’s dungeon.
“?”
At that time Erzsebet’s eyes narrowed.
The Royal Library and the Royal Palace are connected. However among the people entering the palace there was one strange person.
A woman whose face is covered in shadow and is invisible.
Erzsebet who used various hiding techniques as a spy for the legion was able to find out.
That is a fairly advanced hiding technique. No one else notices anything strange.
‘Who is it? Why is such a suspicious person in the palace?’
“What are you doing there?”
The superior turned to her and said. Erzsebet quickly came to her senses and made a smiling face.
“Yes yes I’ll go!”
* * *
A secret reception room inside the Dresden Royal Palace.
A woman with a shadow on her face sat down and drank a cup of tea. The elderly man sitting across from her opened his mouth.
“Is the research going well?”
“Okay.”
She shrugged. The shadow covering the face became narrower or wider depending on the sunlight.
“However it’s a bit bothersome lately that flies in the territory are trying to attract outsiders. Even if I tell the High Lord it doesn’t work so I think I’m trying to talk directly to the Kingdom or the Dark Alliance.”
“I’ll try my best on that.”
The old man nodded.
“Why did you come all the way to the palace in person when you could have sent it by letter instead? I thought you were busy with experiments.”
“One of the things arranged by the elder.”
She spread her hands.
“Is it in this palace?”
“That’s right.”
“The elder’s instructions are to prepare quickly. I also want to see the status.”
The old man nodded with a serious face.
“Follow me.”

Simon was having a hectic day at Kizen.
In particular ‘Emperor Studies’ a general subject had to be taken among third graders and it taught not only leadership skills to lead the people of the territory but also management military law geography diplomacy administration etiquette and writing skills.
There was a lot to learn.
“Simon Pollentia student. This is now the etiquette of the Kingdom of Dresden not Baldwin. The position of the fork is misaligned.”
“Oh I’m sorry. professor.”
Simon who prided himself on having learned etiquette politely from his father Richard also found out that he had a lot to learn when he took the King’s Studies class.
For a liberal arts subject it was quite intense.
After being mentally overworked like that I felt a little better when I took Jane’s Jet Black Mechanics class in the afternoon.
“Simon~”
“Are you here?”
Now the student council members whom I knew just by looking at their eyes welcomed me warmly.
There were many Class A students who knew this class well. It couldn’t be better to have so many people I know around me.
Of course it’s Jane’s class. Needless to say the course content was useful.
And the curse theory of Bahil that follows.
“Simon Pollentia student! Please come forward!”
Bahil called Simon to the podium and kept asking him to do various things. Simon had to write down the curse equation while sweating in front of students from other departments.
It was a somewhat burdensome interest.
“You can also interpret the drain formula like this!”
Bahil even praised Simon’s mistakes saying they were original and even came up with interpretations that Simon had never thought of.
Simon felt his face getting hot with embarrassment.
“Welcome. Simon the man of Bahil.”
As soon as Simon returned to his seat D i c k giggled and teased him. Simon glared at him and Camivarez and Meilin could be seen holding back their laughter.
And the problem was the last class.
This is Hongfeng’s martial arts.
After a long time I reached the top of the mountain while hanging on a hippopotamus.
“Now fellow students! I’m sorry to see that your stamina has deteriorated greatly due to eating sleeping and playing throughout the vacation!”
She slapped her palms together and smiled.
“First of all I will return the stamina to the original Jujun!!”
I should have run away at this time.
