Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner

Chapter 52

It only took two days for Simons Legion to devour an entire mountain range swarming with Orcs.

Pier! Please get rid of the captain monster, 1 oclock!

[Kuhehe! Here I go!]

Elizabeth, lead 10 corpse spiders and block the escape route behind the village.

[As you wish.]

Simon felt refreshed here.

Leading a large army of undead, skillfully commanding them, reading the whole game, understanding the opponents movements, and being a commander who finally achieved victory.

So this was

Necromancy.

Looking at the sight of the orc village burning under the Legions siege, Simons heart raced.

Finally, after all the battles were over, Simon entered the village.

Elizabeth bowed her head politely, and Pier was chuckling, his sword stabbed in the ground.

[We were able to win thanks to your good orders, Commander.]

Well, you guys did all the work, Eliza and Pier.

At that moment, Elizabeth opened her eyes.

[Wh-What did you say just now!]

H-Hm? That you guys did all the work?

[After that!]

Eliza?

[Ahh!]

She closed her eyes and put her hands together.

[So youre finally giving me a nickname! I feel like Im on cloud nine!! Were so much closer now!]

Rather than a nickname, he just used it as a codename due to the urgent nature of the battle.

Still, he didnt necessarily have to spoil her fun, so he decided to move on.

[Now, its time for you to work!]

Pier pointed in one direction. The corpses of the gray orcs that died during the battle were piled up like a mountain on one side. 

[Turn all of them into skeletons! With this, the Legion can become even stronger!]

Simon suddenly felt like he was going to faint.

Should we just burn them?

[You crazy bastard! Im telling you to turn them into soldiers!]

Ah Come to think of it, I haven't learned that yet.

[That?]

Dark magic that raises a corpse.

Until now, Simon had been assembling and using the skeleton sets sold on the market. Of course, the summoning magic was already drawn inside the skull of the skeleton set.

Piers ability was also to conscript summoned or natural undead into a legion undead, so raising the corpse right away and turning it into a Legion was out of his capability.

[Hah Right. Sometimes I forget that youre still a first-year student in Kizen.]

Said Pier while folding his arms.

[Still, dont we live in times where corpses are money? I think its a waste to just throw them away.]

In the end, Simon sent a letter to the Lords castle and asked him to handle it.

Lord Raymond was surprised as soon as he received the message from Simon, so he climbed up to the mountain range on horseback to check the situation himself, coming to Simon's inn to express his thanks.

They were really giving us a rough time! On behalf of my territory's people, Id like to express my gratitude!

Raymond turned this matter into a formal mission, paid Simon an additional commission, and decided to handle the orcs bodies, sending all the profits to Simon.

[Kugh! My soldiers!]

Pier grumbled wistfully, but when Simon said that he would buy new undead with this money, he felt a little better.

And the following day, Simon left the inn early.

[Its. Cramped. In. hereeeeee!]

Hang in there just a little bit.

After shoving Pier, Elizabeth, and about thirty corpse spiders into the subspace, he headed to the meeting point he was first teleported to.

When he arrived at the meeting point, he saw a man wearing a black robe and sitting down in the shade of a tree like a corpse.

Simon drew closer, but they showed no reaction. So, he took out his student ID and held it toward the man.

That startled me.

The student ID disappeared from Simons hand. In an instant, the man who used inspection magic on his student ID jumped up and bowed down at 90 degrees.

I was waiting for you, Simon Polentia.

Ah, yes.

So they were a servant of Kizen after all.

Simon smiled, embarrassed, and took his ID back.

This way, please. Ill start the guide right now.

Yes.

He saw the servant using dark magic, and after a while, a clear teleportation circle was drawn on the floor.

Congratulations on your safe return. Have a nice day today.

Thank you.

The mission was successful, and he earned a lot of spare money to use in school life too. Simon happily stepped onto the magic circle.

Lets go back. To Kizen!

* * *

* * *

After returning to Roke Island with the teleportation circle, Simon arrived safely at the Kizen campus.

Haaaaaah. Its been a while, Kizen!

He somehow felt butterflies in his stomach as he looked around the familiar school buildings.

To think that hed feel so fond of this place after being away for a few days.

Perhaps because he arrived a day earlier, the school was quiet. He could only see a few students passing by, chatting, or sitting on benches and reading books.

The fact that my environment changed is now truly sinking in.

When he was out on a mission, Simon was the only Kizen, and he was treated well by people. But not here. All of the students here were Kizen, and he had to compete fiercely to survive.

But now, he was ready. At this point, Simon just wanted to meet his friends quickly and take his next class.

[Boy! What are you sentimentalizing about for so long? Lets hurry and go to the ruins!]

Haha. Alright.

It was then when Simon was about to head towards the Forbidden Forest.

Simonnn!

When he turned around at the sound of his name being called, Camibarez was running towards him from a distance, waving her hand.

Cami!

Simon also smiled brightly. He hadnt seen her for a few days, which made him feel happier to see her.

Im glad that youre not hurt! I was worried because you took on a difficult mission.

I was lucky in many ways.

Contrary to Simon, Camibarez chose the strategy of taking on a Roke Island mission and completing it quickly to study at school.

Simon, Simon! Look at this! Tada~

She turned around to show her back. Adorable bat wings were flapping behind her school uniform.

I got my school uniform mended! Hehe.

Simon couldnt help but smile, looking at her innocently bragging about her school uniform while smiling.

Looks way better than before.

Right? Right?

Yeah. By the way, wanna grab a coffee in the cafeteria? Its on me.

Hm? Ah, its fine. Ill pay for my own

Simon grinned.

My treat. I made a lot of money with the mission.

Then, he showed off the money he earned from the missions to his classmate.

Afterward, Simon passed through the main gate and entered the Forbidden Forest after waving to Camibarez, who was going back to the library.

[Commander. Who was that woman from a while ago?]

Ah! That startled me.

Elizabeth came out of the subspace and walked behind Simon without him realizing it.

Were just classmates.

[For just a classmate, she had that annoying look when she looked at you, Commander.]

Simons face stiffened slightly.

You remember our contract, right? Dont lay hands on

[People without your permission. Of course. Ill quietly wait at the ruins with Pier until you come to see me, Commander.]

She was so obedient, to the point that he felt more anxious.

She said with a smile,

[And since youre a master and Im your servant, please speak to me casually. I feel uncomfortable.]

Ah, yeah. If you say so

Simon scratched his head and nodded.

And even though this is the Forbidden Forest, sometimes Keepers and people come and go. I think itd be better for you to be in the subspace, Eliza.

[If youre worried about people's eyes, wouldnt this work?]

She tapped her chest with her fingertips. Then, the wine-colored dress she was wearing turned into a cobweb. It was as if her naked body was covered with cobwebs.

So those werent clothes, but cobwebs.

Simon was surprised again. When she touched the web once more, the color and material of the web began to change.

A white blouse, a red-tone necktie, a black jacket, a skirt, and shoes. She perfectly reproduced Kizens female school uniform.

She smiled as she brushed off her fluffy hair.

[Are you satisfied?]

Certainly. It looks quite completed.

[If you need a messenger to come and pass by Kizen, call me. No surveillance magic can catch me.]

Elizabeth specialized in the role of a spy. In addition to changing her appearance, she possessed unique stealth skills that could escape surveillance magic.

Therefore, she was the only undead that could go back and forth between the ruins and Kizen. Of course, her spider troops also specialized in ambushes.

Its a good thing I brought her to Legion. The more I think about it, the more useful she is.

While Simon nodded his head, Elizabeth pulled out more webs and covered her own head. Curious, Simon stood still and watched.

[What about this kind of appearance?]

!

Simon freaked out and stepped back. Elizabeths body had transformed into Camibarez.

The puppy-like, sweet, innocent smile with the eyes and the fangs unique to the vampires sticking out.

[Hmph. Ehem.]

Her voice remained the same as Elizabeth's, but she began to clear her throat.

[Kyahak! Kieeegh! Keugh!]

The step of clearing her throat was quite messy. Then, after a while, she turned around and said,

Simon, Simon! Look at this! Tada~

!!

Elizabeth was waving the bat wings behind her and speaking in Camibarez voice. While blushing and waving his arms wildly, Simon said,

Stop! Stop! Ive seen enough, so just stop!

Fufu.

She gave an alluring smile.

I think by using this power, Ill be able to give you a lot of pleasure, Commander.

[Ah, shut up you guys!]

Piers clone, hanging on Simons school uniform, shouted,

[Stop playing around! Lets just go already! The spider bastards keep clinging to my body and whimpering!]

Piers mad. Lets go quickly.

The two started walking again.

As though she enjoyed Simons embarrassment, Elizabeth still hadnt changed out of Camibarez form.

Eliza.

Yes~ Master~

Dont call me master in Camis voice.

[Understood.]

She returned to her original voice and chuckled. She was clearly enjoying it.

Lets just talk about the Legion. We only have about 30 corpse spiders right now, right? How do we increase the number? Do I have to explore the continent and collect more spiders?

[Dont worry. I, the queen spider, just have to lay eggs.]

Simon froze.

Wh-What?

[I just have to lay eggs.]

She suddenly blushed and pretended to grab the hem of her skirt with her fingertips.

[Its embarrassing to show someone me laying eggs, but if its you, master, I can]

Uwaaaaaah! Agh! Go back to your original form right now! This is an order!

Piers clone clicked his tongue when he saw the chaos break loose.

It was as expected. He knew that Elizabeth would be too much stimulation for Simon right now.

In the end, Simon opened the subspace and ordered Elizabeth to go inside. She had a pitiful look on her face, but it didnt work anymore.

Ah, wait a second.

Simon, whose face had turned red, stiffened up with seriousness.

Eliza.

[Yes, Commander?]

Can you perhaps

After getting lost in his thoughts with his chin on his hand, he spoke in a serious voice.

transform into a priest, too?
