Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 635
Simon returned to the field with a pleasant afterglow of victory.
however.
“……Lethe?”
Lethe is gone.
I hurriedly looked around the stands, but she was nowhere to be seen.
“Excuse me. I’ll pass.”
Simon made his way through the crowd at a brisk pace. There was a place to meet if something happened. A seat next to the arena’s mana screen.
But there.
“…….”
Only a finely folded note remained. Simon hurried over and opened the note.
[Congratulations on your victory.]
The content was concise.
[And from now on, I will move alone. Don’t look for it.]
“You fool…!”
Simon murmured and ran out of the arena.
The clamor of countless spectators, the shouts of the students who won the game, and various stories discussing this game can be heard intertwined.
buzz-
I couldn’t make out what it was.
It was dizzy.
And, of course, Lethe’s voice was not among them.
“haha.”
Simon came out of the arena and looked around urgently.
where did it disappear to?
why did it disappear
Simon’s run was getting faster and faster. I ran forward blindly and came out of a park with a lot of people.
“ah!”
Coincidentally, I saw Kazan, who was conducting an interrogation nearby.
“Kazan!”
“?”
Kazan, who was holding the notebook, also spotted him.
Simon, who had taken a step forward, was on his knees and gasping for breath. He came over after finishing the conversation with the person Kazan was talking to.
“What’s the matter, Simon? Why are you alone?”
“Lethe…!”
Having said that, Simon said inwardly, “Oops,” and quickly corrected his words.
“No, the saintess has disappeared! This note…!”
rustle.
Kazan glanced over the note and let out a small sigh.
“Even though your senior has already been beaten, you’re selfish.”
“Do you know where it is?”
“At least I know that Professor Grerion hasn’t returned to his cave.”
After answering that, Kazan returned the note to Simon.
“Well, then! Isn’t there someone watching from afar? Even the approximate location…!”
“Simon.”
Kazan shook his head and pointed to Lethe’s note.
“Looking at the note, it seems she doesn’t want you to come.”
thud!
Simon felt his heart race.
“I told you not to look for it, so why are you looking for it?”
“That, that’s…”
“Her location is known from a distance by other agents. If there is a problem, a separate report will come in.”
According to Kazan, Lethe had been bluffing since dawn before Simon arrived.
I will never trust a necromancer. If you watch me one more time, then I will give up cooperation and return to the Holy Federation with the Holy Maiden of Harvest.
Of course, from the standpoint of the agents, they couldn’t stop monitoring after hearing those words, but out of respect for the doctor, they somewhat reduced the number of monitoring personnel.
“I will personally look for the saintess. But.”
Kazan walked along the forest path.
“If she wants to patrol alone, I think it’s right to respect that.”
“…….”
Simon, who had been quietly thinking, clenched his fists.

Simon did not give up and persistently searched for Lethe.
I went around places where she might be, places she would like, and places where there were a lot of people, but I couldn’t find her.
at least
-A woman with gray hair and a black robe? Oh, I see. saw. Are you going to the building behind it?
It wasn’t without success.
Simon took the results of his interrogation and went to the building the informant had told him about.
As it turned out, it was the Dark Mechanics Department and the dormitory.
‘……If I get caught, it’ll be a mess.’

During the Dark Emperor period, the relationship between departments is extremely tough. It was dangerous to enter the dormitory carelessly.
‘Wait a minute! I’ll get it back soon!’
Simon put on the vest of the minions spread nearby and entered the dormitory, pretending to be a minion.
Indeed, all the facilities were gorgeous and shiny, befitting the jet-black mechanics department, which had plenty of capital.
As I was looking around in admiration, I saw the dormitory superintendent who was checking the bulletin board in the lobby.
Simon talked to her. Unlike the Summoning Department headmaster, she had a friendly personality, and she pretended not to know Simon even though she knew that he was a student in another department.
“Oh, the gray-haired girl? I don’t know about today, but she came and went yesterday.”
“Yesterday?”
“Yes. It’s fun.”
she chuckled.
“He was looking for the blue-haired boy yesterday. But today, the blue-haired boy is looking for the girl.”
“…….”
Simon listened to the housekeeper’s story and moved to the next location, stepping on Lethe’s clues little by little. Of course, the destination was the Summoning Department and the dormitory.
The dormitory was quiet as the students had not yet returned. Simon came up to my room.
‘Come to think of it, how did Lethe find my room exactly?’
Simon slid open the window she had climbed into last night. Her dust had accumulated, leaving her faint footprints where she had set foot the day before.
Simon opened the window completely and looked out.
“ah.”
Lethe’s footprints were stamped on the windows of nearly every floor of the building.
After finding out the location of the Department of Summoning, it seemed that he went through the rooms one by one to find them all.
A bitter smile crept across Simon’s lips.
‘This idiot.’
The day was getting darker and darker. Simon raised his head.
‘Star fight.’
During the day, she too will patrol the island of Roch, but at night she will climb the mountain to spend the night. If you’re looking for a place where you can do stargazing, you might be able to meet them.
Having made up his mind, Simon jumped out the window.

The sun went down and the night sky rose.
Stars were twinkling in the sky.
and.
“…….”
high mountain hills.
There was a girl sitting on the grass, hugging her legs, blankly gazing at the night view of Rock Island.
– Simon! Simon! Simon!
– As expected, it’s great!
-I only saw you throughout the game! Good job, Chairman!
Simon was like a different person here.
He was a hero, and he had many people around him.
They were people who cared about Simon, and at the same time, people who cared about Simon.
‘But I am.’
It turned out.
Unless you are born again, you cannot relate to that culture, that world, or that people.
He was someone who shouldn’t be here. He only stopped by briefly due to the special situation of a fanatic coming in.
-There’s no chance I’ll meet someone named Gafen, but I’m wondering if you’re in a similar situation.
It was.
This world is divided.
Coexistence is impossible.
The current truce is nothing more than an unstable peace that arises because neither side is sure that they can completely eliminate each other.
‘but.’
That strange guy suddenly put his face in this area, and I was mistaken for nothing.
He has adapted well. He was recognized by the Heretic Inquisitors and even made friends with them.
That guy probably wouldn’t have a problem even being a priest.
It’s just immature selfishness, but I imagined for a moment what it would be like if he lived here.
But don’t be mistaken.
Simon is happy here.
Simon’s happiness and joy are here.
Simon will raise his sword for the people of this place, and he will be willing to give his life for this place.
they are my enemies
And Simon is also my enemy.
‘ha.’
I felt like I was drowning in an emotional mess.
The fingertips that had lost their way and trembled, grabbed the air.
‘Let’s hold out until tomorrow and go back. Don’t look at Simon’s face anymore.’
Even for me.
And even for us.
This is the right decision.
Lethe slowly closed her eyes.
Bassrock-
Then footsteps were heard.
sound of stepping on grass. Lethe looked back.
‘!’
Her pupils widened.
The emotions that had been swirling like embers soared again, and my heart raced.
“…….”
A boy with leaves stuck in his hair and his clothes all black with dirt was walking. It was obvious that he had suffered so much, but he approached me casually.
I could be angry because you left without saying anything.
Simon said nothing.
He didn’t scream or get annoyed.
He just walked over calmly and sat down next to Lethe. Then he put his palms on the grass and looked up at the night sky.
“…….”
“…….”
Silence fell.
This was not a place where I had been struggling before.
She didn’t really want Simon to come.
But Simon found it. Perhaps in this wide island of Roch, all high places have been searched.
The two of them stared at the night sky in silence for a while.
“Why are you here?”
Finally Lethe’s mouth fell. Simon turned to her and smiled helplessly.
“I’m worried.”
In a word that seemed sincere, she slightly bit her lip. It felt like her cold heart was melting like her spring snow.
She muttered as if she was about to say something, but she lowered her head slightly and spoke quietly.
“Don’t look for it… I told you.”
“It’s dangerous to be alone.”
Lethe averted her gaze and murmured in a barely audible voice.
“sorry.”
It was the first time she had ever apologized openly, so Simon was a bit surprised. Then, a small smile crept across her lips.
“If you’re okay, that’s fine.”
The two fell silent again.
It was a little more comfortable than before.
“…….”
At that time, Lethe gave a small sigh and narrowed her eyes as she glared at Simon.
“Why why?”
“Shut up and lie down.”
Lette F*cks Simon’s chest! It pushed loudly. Simon collapsed with a gasping sound, and Lethe spoke in a hoarse voice.
“What’s wrong with a person like this? It’s bleeding and it’s all scratched.”
Simon put on a bewildered expression, and belatedly saw the wounds on his body.
A scratch on a tree branch, a cut on the knee, a bruise from falling from the foot of a mountain.
Lethe sat down next to Simon and brushed her disheveled hair. She then put her hands together and placed them on her wounds.
“Let’s go back to Priest for a while.”
Simon nodded and closed the darkness. Then she cast her white magic.
<Great Healing>
Whoa!
The wounds began to heal little by little along with the white glow. She took out her rescue set from the Ayeah space and disinfected and bandaged her wounds on Simon’s body.
The way he finished the treatment in an instant made me think that he was a Priest.
“It’s done.”
Lette patted Simon’s back with a groan! and was beaten Simon quickly got up from his seat and straightened up to sit down, and Lethe sat upright next to him.
“Thank you.”
“yes.”
“…….”
“…….”
“Simon.”
“huh.”
Lethe stared at Simon with shining golden eyes.
“Are we enemies?”
Simon closed his eyes.
“Is there anyone who heals enemies?”
“I’m asking seriously.”
Lethe grumbled and said.
“We are destined to fight each other. Now that we are both students, this can be forgiven. But when we graduate from school and become adults in the future. When I become a full-fledged saint and you are revealed to be a corps commander.”
“…….”
“We’ll have to kill and kill each other. Or we’ll get caught up in a case of killing each other’s friends and important people.”
She stared blankly at Simon.
“That’s fate. So, we too…”
“It’s not fate or anything, it’s just your thoughts.”
Simon said calmly and laughed.
“Even after we become adults, we meet like this, say hello to each other’s friends, talk happily, and treat injuries. I believe that day will come.”
Simon looked at Lethe with a serious face.
“Rather than worrying about the future, let’s focus more on the present. And let’s do our best to prevent that future from coming.”
“…….”
“I think we’re doing good enough. Like we’re trying to prevent war now.”
Lethe, who was silent for a moment, stood up from her seat with a soft smile.
He took off his robe and looked straight at Simon.
“I’m going to start fighting. I’m asking you to do the rest.”
Simon also rose from his seat.
“Leave it to me.”
