Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner Chapter 243

Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 243

“Simon.”

On the way to the ballroom Lorraine came over and spoke quietly.

“Do you know about the traditions of the ball?”

“…?”

Simon was completely unaware. Princess Molly interrupted clapping her hands.

“If you don’t mind I’ll explain myself!”

This tradition stems from the old ‘Talhern’ empire conquering Dresden as a kingdom and holding a ball in their palace. It is said that the ball was terribly promiscuous as it was intended to comfort soldiers who suffered in the war.

In particular in the center of the ballroom there was a large scaffold to which the King of Dresden dressed in rags was brought.

It was the highlight of the event.

Emperor Talhern personally manipulated the scaffold and said

-Tell me one last wish.

Of course the emperor had no intention of granting the wish. It was a kind of entertainment.

Several royal captives had already met their deaths here and it was spectacle to see all those noble blood peeing and begging for their lives to be spared.

The emperor chuckled and carried out the execution which was a good spectacle for the banquet guests.

At the same time the emperor intended to teach the people of Dresden a lesson.

The people you admired were actually this insignificant. The lesson that being conquered by us was inevitable.

But the king of Dresden was different.

He climbed up to the scaffold stuck his head in and said:

-Please prepare three meals for the people.

Then he activated the scaffold himself.

The emperor sincerely admired the appearance and banned the looting and criminal activities that were being done indiscriminately in the capital Langastine. He also stopped the exploitation of the conquered countries and implemented a policy of mercy and also recognized partial autonomy of the kingdoms.

Afterwards the royal family who were destined to die by having their heads cut off survived the banquet and continue their blood to this day.

To honor the king who sacrificed himself for the sake of his people the royal family held a ball every year on the day of the fall of Langestine.

At this time the royal family who inherited the king’s blood could make a ‘wish’ to the guests who participated in the ball.

Of course there were no excessive money and property related or rude wishes.

-Sir Ronan is worried about his health so please stop smoking from this time today.

It was roughly this level.

The unspoken rule is that both the person making the wish and the person receiving it should be happy. So many people participated in the ball without any burden.

‘There was such a tradition.’

Upon learning the story Simon saw the ball in a new light.

At first I thought it was an extravagant social gathering to show off my connections and wealth in the royal family but in fact it was a venerable event based on historical facts.

Above all it must have been their pain that the country fell to the empire and the king died but I thought it was great to enjoy it by sublimating it into a tradition like this.

‘Then what will the princess wish for? I’m curious.’

Soon the three of them arrived at the door of the ballroom.

said Princess Molly.

“I’ll go in last. The three of you please enter first.”

“yes.”

While Simon was staring at the door with nervous eyes Serene sneakily followed.

Then he held out his slender hand toward Simon.

‘…Why do you want me to hold your hand again?’

When Simon stayed still Serene smiled and waved her hand softly.

“My arm hurts Simon.”

The reason Sernet personally visited this troublesome ball was because she wanted the names of Simon and the Ivory Tower to be mentioned together in front of many people. She had been aiming for a position with Simon from the beginning.

Of course Lorraine wasn’t going to let that happen.

Caught between the two she grabbed Cerne and said.

“Go first Simon.”

Simon nodded his head in gratitude and hurried toward the door.

Cerne tried to catch up but was blocked by Lorraine’s meticulous defense.

“What is it! Let go of this!”

“It’s only the couple who go in together so don’t be rude. Students should go in one by one.”

“It’s my job!”

Lorraine only wanted to stop Serene’s plot.

However I changed my mind a bit after watching that vicious Cerne struggle to recruit Simon’s Ivory Tower from the side.

‘I want Simon to help me work at Keygen even after graduation.’

In the end I had to respect Simon’s decision two years later but I thought that there was no need to stand behind my back as Kizen the best of the best.

Simon was confident that he would grow into a talent needed by Kizen in the future so he decided to be more active.

‘Simon to the ivory tower.’

‘Simon is in Kizen.’

While the two girls were drawing different futures Simon who had gone ahead alone opened the door to the ballroom and proceeded.

‘Waaaa…!’

The whole place was sparkling. It was the first time that such a large and splendid ballroom was held.

The ballroom was from the first to the third floor and the center was open so that you could look down from above. Different themed food was prepared for each floor and there was also a large space for dancing.

At that time the butler holding the amplification crystal ball shouted.

“Current Kizen Exceptional No. 1 student in the Baldwin Kingdom. Sir Simon Pollentia is entering!”

clap clap clap clap.

The applause of nobles was heard everywhere. The word ‘kizen’ came out mixed in the buzzing voice.

And then the door burst open.

“Sir Serne Eindark the official successor of the Ivory Tower and the second student of Kizen’s Special Exception enters!”

Cerne who came out next to Simon walked with her brilliant ivory-colored hair waving.

She was annoyed at not being called by name but she smiled leisurely and crossed arms with Simon and waved.

“Daughter of Nephthys the witch of death. Sir Lorraine Akbold enters.”

This time astonishment erupted even among the respectable high-ranking nobles. Lorraine who rarely appears in public appeared in a black dress.

“To come to the daughter of Nephthys!”

“The scale has grown. This year the royal family really had a big heart.”

The appearance of three keyzen students was unprecedented. The nobles from upstairs began to come down to say hello.

A few people around them started talking to them or asking for a dance but the three of them only smiled and did not actively respond.

The three were currently on a mission and this was their mission.

“Princess Molly is entering!”

Finally the main character of this ball the royal family appeared.

All the nobles rose from their seats and applauded. Molly dressed in a white dress greeted her gracefully.

“Thank you to all the guests who graced the occasion.”

After bowing to the nobles she slowly moved towards the center.

Simon realized what was in the center of the banquet hall.

‘That’s the execution platform from that history!’

At first I didn’t even know it was an execution bar.

Of course the scaffold was missing a blade and it was decorated with vines ribbons and even lights incredibly luxurious.

Molly a royal climbed the scaffold and rang the bell. A sweet sound was heard.

“I would like to sincerely thank the students who came to visit because of my stubbornness even though I was busy with Keyzen life and I wish you well.”

she spoke in a sonorous voice.

“The three of you are bound by security duties but for tonight as guests of the ball I would like you to freely roam around and enjoy this time and relieve your fatigue. Will the guests allow it?”

The nobles laughed merrily and raised their glasses.

Princess Molly also raised her glass and Simon Serene and Lorraine raised nearby glasses as well.

“For the prosperity of the kingdom!”

“for!”

After everyone had emptied their glasses Princess Molly waved the bell again. Applause pours in from everywhere.

‘So you wrote a wish for us.’

If this was a wish there was no reason to reject it. The reason to hear the sarcasm that the bodyguards came to the banquet and played was gone and Kizen couldn’t raise a problem because it was the order of the client.

While Simon was thinking about that Molly’s gaze shifted slightly towards Simon.

‘Actually I wanted to make another wish.’

I wanted to pray that Simon would come to the Dresden Kingdom after graduation. If that didn’t work I wanted to beg him to open my core and become a necromancer.

However this was only a personal wish and could not be wished as a wish of the ball tradition.

Thus the atmosphere at the prom gradually matured.

Thanks to Molly’s wishes the three of them could now freely roam around taste food and enjoy conversation with the surrounding guests.

“My name is Simon Pollentia.”

“I’ve seen your performance well. I was also at Rock Island because my son was in the first year.”

As much as I was invited to the royal ball each and every person here was a great person so there was nothing wrong with looking good.

Simon talked to many people and broadened his knowledge.

Lorraine sneaked out saying that she didn’t fit the party atmosphere and Serene only talked to a few people around her.

They were blocking other people who were trying to talk to Serne but it turned out that they were repeating the same thing to Serne over and over again.

That’s when the party atmosphere is close to the peak.

Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The lights in the banquet hall went out with the sound of thunder.

People groaned and groaned in amazement. After the bright atmosphere of the event calmed down the sound of rain was heard outside.

‘rain?’

Simon looked out the window and saw a heavy rain pouring down.

“The butlers went to see the status of the mana generator and magic circle. Please wait!”

There was even a gloomy atmosphere perhaps because the light had disappeared from the old castle. The guests stopped dancing and sat quietly in nearby seats and chatted.

Simon’s legs hurt too so he sat down on a chair but Cerne grabbed Simon’s arm and clung to him.

“I’m scared~”

Simon who had goosebumps on his arm for some reason responded calmly.

“I’m more afraid of you.”

“too bad!”

Lorraine who had been out on the terrace before she knew it also joined Simon’s side.

She was looking around with ruby ​​eyes. In the dark her eyes glowed more red.

“What’s up? Simon.”

“There must be a little problem with the lighting.”

Lorraine nodded lightly and sat down to drink her wine.

Click! Click!

Just then the sound of wet boots came from the entrance. After the banquet hall was quiet the sound of people walking in from the corridor was exceptionally loud.

Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

People flinched at the lightning strike once again.

Suddenly all the guests on the first floor moved their gaze toward the entrance where the sound of boots clattering was heard.

bang!

The door is open.

drip.

A man whose entire body was soaked in water appeared.

He was dressed in rags his cheeks were thin his eyes wide open and his shoulders twitching in a fit of laughter. Her mouth was full of the smell of alcohol and one eye was open.

“Everyone looks happy. Draw it.”

match. match. match.

The wet man clapped three times. Then he looked around him with cold eyes.

“I am not.”

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Lightning flashed and the surroundings brightened for a moment then darkened. In the meantime people who saw the man’s face covered their mouths and made frightened noises.

He was none other than the third prince expelled from Kizen a second-year student at Kizen and the chairman of Noble.

It was Prince Andrew.

“But really someone I never imagined is here.”

He looked in Simon’s direction and raised a smirk.

“Simon Pollentia.”
