Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 357
Simon’s remarks were shocking.
– We are not trash. Judge.
The moment he finished his story the audience cheered and the judges left their seats with red faces as if they were running away.
When Simon turned his back and came down the podium the 3rd necromancer students rushed in.
“I saw you again! Kizen!”
“My insides were all cool!!”
“I’m sorry about yesterday. The real bowl is different.”
Students poured out their thanks from all sides. Simon was a little taken aback by the crowd but greeted him with a smile.
“Thank you very much Simon! See you again!”
In particular Aland’s Benz was following Simon until the end and shouting. Received an enthusiastic welcome Simon descended the stairs.
“Oh my goodness-“
However in the hallway leading out of the presentation hall Serene was standing with her arms crossed. Benz who was following Simon flinched reflexively.
“Wasn’t Simon’s guideline not to make as many enemies as possible?”
“….”
“Isn’t that right? I didn’t have to tell that story for those goofballs.”
When Cerne said that while looking over at Benz Benz’s expression hardened grimly.
“Simon’s thesis was the only one selected by the judges. Trampling on those idiots and being recognized by the Pentamonium would be Simon’s most brilliant scenario so why did he bother to lose money?”
Then the voice of the student council president he met yesterday shimmered in Simon’s ears.
-Don’t let others drag your life! Armed with a burning heart and big dreams go your own way!
“I never had such a calculated thought.”
Simon smiled lightly. It was neither for students nor for profit.
“At that moment I was just being honest with my feelings.”
Serene said “Hmm” and gave a meaningful smile.
“Go back.”
Suddenly Kazan’s voice was heard.
When he looked up Kazan who had been attached to the ceiling like a bat fell to Simon’s side.
“Wowwak! What!”
Benz slammed his butt with a frightened sound.
“Kajan why were you doing that?”
“It’s a life movement. Let’s go.”
The two left Simon in the middle. Benz and the students looked at Simon’s back with eyes full of emotions.

A situation in which a kid in the first year of Keyzen watered the judges made up of elders at a student thesis presentation quickly spread throughout the Pentamonium.
Surprisingly there was almost no reaction like ‘Where is the student being cheeky’. Necromancers were amused by the new topic.
And as Simon initially planned he registered his thesis ‘Skeleton Mage and Corpse Explosion’ at the Pentamonium auction.
The procedure which was said to take weeks at the latest was surprisingly signed in two hours and the auction went right away. Kazan said that the upper part of the Pentamonium seems to have moved directly.
“Wasn’t it filmed on the upper floors?”
Kazan shook his head at Simon’s bewildered question.
“Words spread faster than we thought. And Pentamonium isn’t stupid enough to cover up a few judges and end up getting all covered in ink. Rather they’ll try to take advantage of this situation.”
“I will. The call has been a blessing~”
Serene smiled and said. Although she had told Simon earlier that it was ‘losing money’ she seemed to have known this from the beginning judging by the expression on her face.
As a result Simon’s actions became a clear issue.
A thesis written by a kid in the first year of Kizen who fed the judges → That was the skeleton mage’s corpse explosion. Word spread in this way and the central auction hall as well as the second and third auction halls were filled with people.
Simon also watched from the stands along with Cerne and Kazan.
Although it was called an auction it was more like an event to buy and sell knowledge. More simply Simon gets paid for sharing his ‘original’ with others.
In addition since Simon has officially registered his thesis with Pentamonium if other necromancers produce new results based on Simon’s research in the future Simon will receive money in the name of royalties. Whatever it is if the jackpot hits he sits on a cushion of money.
Simon looked at the auctioneer.
“I’ll start with 5000 gold.”
The starting amount has already exceeded Simon’s target amount.
Simon bit his thumb with a nervous expression.
‘…Is it too strong? Doesn’t anyone bid for 5000 gold?’
I was anxiously watching my surroundings but the auctioneer finally announced the start of the auction. Bid came in right away.
“5000 gold! 5500 gold!”
In an instant the numbers start to rise.
Whenever people’s hands went up Simon’s hips moved with excitement. I felt good because the value of my research seemed to be acknowledged by so many people participating in the auction.
The amount quickly passed 6000 7000 and it was urgent.
“10000 gold! Do you have another 10000 gold?”
It took less than a minute to shoot 10000. Even so the audience raised their hands in front of them.
“15000 gold!”
“16000 gold!”
Three times the target of 5000 gold. Now Simon decided to give up thinking.
“17000 gold!”
“Twenty thousand gold!”
“25000 gold!”
The money grew exponentially eventually.
“30000 gold! 30000 gold! 30000 gold! Congratulations Sir Bollore! 30000 gold!”
Applause erupts. The man named Bolore who participated in the auction jumped up from his seat and raised his arms in joy.
“….”
And Simon pinched my cheek with a stupid expression.
sick.
It was not a dream.
‘30000 gold!’
If Simon was a man without the slightest ambition it was a large amount of money that he could live without worrying about money for the rest of his life in a mountain village.
‘It’s just a Skeleton Mage that uses Corpse Explosion. Was my research really that valuable?’
I was a little dumbfounded.
I came to get the ingredients for Richie’s Life Vessel and I thought I could get the highest quality heart with this amount of income.
“Congratulations Simon!”
“Congratulations.”
Serene and Kazan also congratulated them. In particular Cerne waved Simon’s arm and spoke in a charming voice.
“I made a lot of money so please buy me something delicious!”
“Oh yes! Of course not.”
I felt like I wanted to ring the golden bell at an expensive restaurant.
But before we went out to eat something delicious there was something we had to do. Simon immediately went to meet the buyer Bollore at the request of the auction house.
The two sat facing each other in an incredibly luxurious room.
“I wanted to meet Simon Pollentia student!”
Count Bollore who had an impressive two-pronged mustache ruled a volcanic territory called ‘Clonmel’ in the kingdom and was himself a necromancer.
His territory Clonmel was frequently attacked by monsters so he even had a private necromancer army with permission from the kingdom but it was difficult to block all attacks even with that.
However he said that he decided to bid on the fact that the Skeleton Mage which uses corpse explosions effectively in monster battles and that the material is ‘Muspel’ which is common in the Volcanic Territory.
Simon disclosed 100% of the paper to the buyer. Bolore listened to Simon’s explanation and nodded in admiration.
“The hexa formula could have been substituted here! I’m envious. Keygen’s professors seem to teach such original methods as well!”
Simon just laughed. In fact it was something I had never learned.
In this way Simone and Bollore exchanged opinions on the new thesis without losing track of time.
“Amazing! Student Simon’s research has saved our territory!”
Bollore said while carefully putting a copy of the thesis in her bag.
“It’s an honor if my research helps.”
Simon smiled too.
Conversing with Bollore I felt as if I was gaining some tremendous strength and a sense of lift. He came to sell his thesis to buy the materials of the Rich and was highly evaluated by the active Necromancers and even used for good.
Although I am still just a student I was happy because I felt like I had contributed something to the world outside of school.
“I’m looking forward to what he will do after graduation. As a senior in the industry I will continue to watch him.”
“thank you!”
Bollore went out and told the auction house that he would finalize the purchase. The two of them put blood on the documents shook hands one last time and went on their way.
Soon after an employee from the auction house approached Simon and said.
“Would you like to pay in gold coins or in checks?”
“Gold coins please.
Simon walked after the employee. and after a while
‘oh my god.’
A treasure chest full of gold coins was waiting. Excluding the 10% commission from the Pentamonium Auction House 27000 gold was Simon’s share.
Simon kept the treasure chest in the subspace.
“It’s so good? Your face is very straightened.”
Serene said with a chuckle. Simon scratched the side of his head in a sudden sense of embarrassment.
“You know what?”
Serene sneakily tried her luck with her passing manner.
“If you enter the ivory tower you will receive dozens of times that amount-“
“Serne!”
Simon shouted with suddenly widened eyes.
“Maybe!”
“yes?”
Serene blinked quickly in surprise.
Could it be that the money works? Contrary to what it looks like were you the type to be bought with money?
“In addition to this kind of knowledge auction is there a product auction at Pentamonium?!”
“….”
In fact Simon wasn’t listening. He only thought of making Richie’s Life Vessel the best quality right away.
Serene’s grumpy lips protruded.
“Hmph I don’t know!”
“Of course there is.”
Kazan who fell from the ceiling this time answered back.
“Shall we go?”
“Yes! I want to go!”
With 30000 gold in his pocket the world looked different again.

same time.
“Now now ladies and gentlemen! Follow me!”
The Pentamonium Conference which is open to the public once a year.
It is an event that everyone in the Dark Commonwealth wants to attend.
Not only did it cost an astronomical amount to enter the teleport magic circle but an invitation from Pentamonium was also required.
Being invited by the Pentamonium is a great honor and at social gatherings of nobles the joys and sorrows of the nobles are mixed depending on whether the invitation came or not. Because this invitation was also a standard for evaluating the power and wealth of aristocrats.
“This time I will guide you to the most dangerous place in Pentamonium!”
The high-ranking nobles who entered Pentamonium were extremely excited about the fact that they had been chosen.
The guide hired by the Pentamonium was also giving them a city tour gently soothing the high-ranking nobles and ladies.
“We’re going right in front of the ‘barrier’. Please don’t make eye contact with the horrible things outside the barrier. If you accidentally make eye contact-“
While riding in the carriage the guide wiggled his fingers and smiled meaningfully.
“Because you might be cursed!”
The ladies screamed in fear and leaned against the gentleman’s arms and there was a moment when the gentlemen blushed and bluffed telling them not to worry and saying that I would protect them.
That’s how the carriage arrived in front of the barrier.
“This barrier was created by the first president of Pentamonium Prince Goris and repaired by the Great Witch of Death herself. Throughout the history of Pentamonium no outside invasion has ever been allowed! That’s why it could be.”
Outside the barrier it was a desolate black field with no sense of life to the point of being dismal. I could see the zombies outside the barrier swaying.
Centered around a paper-thin boundary it was spectacular to see an extremely developed human civilization city on the inside and a death wasteland on the outside.
“No it won’t collapse will it?”
A lady said in a frightened tone as she saw a zombie slithering in the distance.
“Haha! The Pentagonium has never collapsed since it was built! Now we’ll have 20 minutes of free time. Feel free to take a look around!”
The barrier of Pentamonium was a very famous shooting spot among nobles. Nobles gathered in groups of twos and threes to take pictures with expensive magic cameras.
After taking all the photos the nobles who watched the zombies outside the barrier quickly lost interest.
“Guide! We’ve seen everything here so let’s go somewhere else.”
“Yes ma’am. I understand! Now let’s move on to the highlight of our trip the Artifact Auction House. You can directly participate in and purchase rare items from around the world.”
“It’s finally here!”
At that time the nobles rode the wagon again and moved to the downtown area of Pentamonium.
damn
jump.
A barrier that has never allowed a single invasion in history.
It was cracking little by little.
