Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits Chapter 191

[ Episode 191. Rematch]

“So… You mean you’re my brother’s best friend?”

“Yes.”

It wasn’t too surprising that an old man who looked like he would do it tomorrow came to visit as a friend.

However, it was surprising enough that he knew Maximin and got acquainted with Salem (Hagendahl), who seemed to be quite unusual even though he did not know the exact identity.

“I am also a friend, Adrias’ friend.”

When the blurry girl spoke, Amy nodded and said.

“nice to meet you. I am Amy Cromwell, the sister of Her Excellency Cromwell.”

“I am……!”

Luna, who was about to say her name, looked at Morne before saying it, then lowered her voice.

“Naru. Nice to meet you brother.”

“Naru?”

Thinking it was an unusual name, Amy tilted her head and looked at Morne. He smiled benevolently and introduced himself.

“Feel free to call me Hugo. Please take good care of me.”

“Yes Hugo.”

His eyes looking at Amy with a benevolent smile were those of a grandfather looking at his granddaughter.

“I brought a present for Adrias! I’ll give it to you directly! Where is Adrias?”

“He is in the academy now. I will contact you.”

“okay!”

Amy looked suspiciously at Luna, who smiled, and looked around.

Maximin, who is said to be the strongest swordsman in mankind, and an elf from Rastilia, a mysterious woman who seems to be his lover, and an old man and a girl who are Adrias’ close friends.

And it was strange that even Hagendahl, who was a guest of Cromwell’s but whose exact identity was unknown, seemed to know each other.

First of all, looking at Maximin and seeing people who didn’t look nervous at all, I guessed that they were at least at the same level as Maximin.

‘Is that possible?’

However, I had to admit half of the conversation that immediately followed.

“It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen you. What did you come here for?”

Seeing the old man naturally talking to Maximin made me feel a bit unrealistic.

It’s the first time I’ve heard the name Hugo. Is it a pseudonym? It seems that he knows Maximin in disguise, but what kind of old man can talk to Maximin in the world so naturally?

“I decided to entrust myself for a while.”

“Hoo?”

Morne muttered, exclaiming as if he had heard an amazing story.

“Good.”

“Seeing that it went well, did you join Adrias as well?”

“Yes.”

“This situation is quite……”

For the first time, emotions were revealed on Maximin’s dry face.

The expression on his face, only the corners of his mouth slightly raised, was evidently of interest.

“It gets interesting.”

“In the end, it all leads. That guy was here first, what you decided to entrust, and why we followed Adrias are all destiny.”

“fate? I don’t believe in that. But I admit to being attracted.”

Maximin turned around as if he had finished his story.

And one last word before leaving the room.

“Cromwell will soon become the eye of the storm.”

**

The hot heat was transmitted in and out of the stadium.

In last year’s tournament, he met Diene in the first match and was eliminated immediately, but this time he was able to advance to the quarterfinals without incident.

And the opponent she would meet in the quarterfinals was Diene.

Should I say I had bad luck?

“senior. How about this time?”

Lucia, sleepy-eyed, asked as she rolled over on my lab table.

I said it for granted while researching the materials I brought from the Great Forest.

“Of course I win.”

“Oh come! We lost last year.”

“It is different this year.”

This time, I was thinking of winning the championship as long as there were no surprises.

I originally planned to win last year, but I missed it due to an unexpected accident and Diene’s awakening.

“Why did you abstain?”

“How can I beat Vivian unnie? I’m not a monster like you.”

“That’s something you don’t know.”

You are the most monstrous wizard I know.

Swallowing the words he wanted to say, he touched her, who would later become the continent’s strongest battle mage.

“If that’s the case, help me out.”

“yes? How dare I help you with your research. I’ll just talk to you so you don’t get bored here.”

“What do I want from you? Okay, just don’t bother.”

As usual, he left the limp Lucia behind and resumed his research.

Originally, when I had free time like this, I would have taught the kids swordsmanship, but today, both Louis and Serena had a prior agreement, so it was canceled.

“What are you making now?”

“A legendary elixir that can revive anyone as long as they are not dead.”

“If you don’t want to tell me, say no.”

“Really.”

What I was researching was a real elixir potion.

It was a task that I had been thinking about since I first came to this world, but I was thinking about trying it now.

Unlike the game, if you die, it’s the end, so the value of the elixir is much higher.

The problem is the ingredients and the recipe.

I had even made Lesser Elixir before.

A potion that is weaker than an elixir, but has enough miraculous power.

However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t take off the modifier of ‘lesser’, which means ‘lesser’.

‘But now I have a talent for making potions.’

If it doesn’t work, make your talent a genius and try it.

I’m constantly researching to build up my proficiency for him.

After studying for a while, Lucia, who had fallen asleep, rubbed her eyes and woke up to check the time.

“senior. Shouldn’t you be leaving soon?”

“How old are you?”

“It is already morning. Could it be that you stayed up all night?”

Time flies.

This happened often while doing research.

Did Lucia sleep here without going back to the dormitory?

I roughly finished the research I was doing and briefly washed my face in the bathroom on one side of the lab.

Finally, the day of the match against Diene.

The time has come to avenge last year’s guilt.

“Let’s go out together.”

Lucia followed me with a hazy expression still not awake.

I thought it was getting better now, but this guy was still a sleeper.

Have you ever heard that habits are difficult to change?

Still, it was fortunate that I could see him putting a sincere effort into his magic training recently.

“It’s Adrias.”

“Hey, Adrias.”

All eyes were focused on the way to the stadium.

Come to think of it, did Diene grow up always receiving this kind of attention from a young age?

must have suffered

“uh? I am a senior.”

Lucia waved to Diene, who was heading towards the arena, in a hoarse voice.

She was walking with a slightly stiff expression, but when she saw Lucia, she immediately relaxed and smiled.

“Lucia. did you sleep well? Did you wake up?”

“It’s a senior’s game, but I can’t sleep well.”

I bowed my head slightly between them and said hello.

“Thank you for today, Diane.”

“uh.”

The complexion of her short answer seemed a little nervous.

You were so confident last year, but are you nervous now?

“Diane, let me win this time.”

“What are you saying all of a sudden? I have no intention of losing either.”

“That’s enough.”

I nodded and left first.

What Diene needed right now was a small opportunity.

As long as I have that much, I will be able to fully demonstrate my skills without shrinking.

“What is that?”

“Kuk-kuk. I think he knows he’s cool.”

“I can hear everything.”

I’m glad you feel relaxed.

When we arrived at the stadium, it was still full of people.

And the people in the VIP seats, who hadn’t been seen in the meantime, seemed to be fully occupied.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen Bahat and Berial, the head of the Faculty of Magic, and Minus Morhaime was there.

The red lion-headed duke, Sinclair Cloche, seemed unable to come due to preparations for war.

“The 59th Spring Tournament Quarterfinals…!”

After the moderator started, I calmed down.

I didn’t think I would lose.

I just wonder how strong Diene has become over the past year.

“A little……”

Let’s take a look.

Shortly after the introduction of the moderator, they stood on a solid playing field.

Unlike before, Diene calmly stared at me as if she was quite relaxed.

“Adrias. don’t look at me.”

“I don’t have the time to spare myself against Diene.”

He gently touched the knife at his waist.

Then her gaze briefly turned to my knife and nodded.

“good.”

The conversation ended there.

Soon after, the moderator started the proceedings, and the match opened in an instant.

“Wow!”

A thunderous roar erupted from the crowd, and at the same time I heard Galaksur in my hand.

Ugh!

Diene immediately changed her position using space magic, but unlike before, the position was not in a hurry to increase the distance, but a calculated position aimed at the opponent’s blind spot.

But I didn’t have any blind spots.

Perong!

When I hit the floor, my new model moved at high speed with the sound of air bursting.

The magic of the highest level wizard is the same as the movement of the swordsman, and the movement of the highest level swordsman is the same as magic.

“Blink?”

I moved closer to Diene as if I had teleported to the extent that there was such a misunderstanding in the audience.

However, Diene also disappeared as if she had expected such a me.

supportive!

Rather, the place I approached was a trap.

Immediately, the electric magic installed on the floor was activated and came to bind me, but I neutralized it with earth magic.

In that gap, Diene immediately threw magic at me with space transfer, and my genius swordsmanship cut through all of my opponent’s magic.

All of this happened in just 2 seconds.

The natural battle like flowing water was like a play.

“Uwaah …….”

The elasticity like lamentation bursts out and we did not stop.

‘It’s tricky.’

Diene continued to use space travel.

However, it wasn’t just running away, it was a movement as if he had calculated in advance which route he would take to move in space.

It’s like…

‘How did I use the giant magic circle on the 30th floor of Modras Tower?’

While moving, she was creating a huge magic circle.

A magic circle that covers the entire inside of the arena.

No matter how much I was, I couldn’t stop or avoid it once it was completed.

“Did you notice?”

Diene, who seemed to be able to afford it, smiled and looked amazing.

After all, Diene is Diene.

Even in the middle of this hectic time, everything was calculated and executed without an error.

She probably thought this was the only way she could win.

If I had just been thinking about winning, she would have been thinking about and researching ways to beat me even before she came up against me.

“I took it too lightly.”

It was a short battle, but the perfection of the magic circle that I could already sense was 80%.

She meticulously twisted the order of making the magic circle so I couldn’t notice.

“no. Because I calculated all of that.”

“As expected, Diene is amazing.”

“I won’t stop saying things like that.”

Once again she’s gone.

Wherever she passed, her magic remained like a trace.

If you want to erase it, you can erase it, but if that happens, it will be a fight between General Meng.

A magic circle that can be redrawn after erasing it.

And the fight will be an overwhelming advantage for Diene, who can aim for the back of the head while I erase it.

‘Then……’

First of all, he calculated the type of magic circle.

It takes time to unlock, but it was possible to figure out roughly what it was.

‘Paralysis of the space, petrification of statues… they are all neutralized.’

Should I say Diene?

She prepared the magic so that the opponent would not get hurt.

Diene’s innocence, still young and fragile, was visible.

Then, if you show that innocence was defeat, the lesson of this battle will be over.

Wheein—!

The chasing and chasing game has finally reached its conclusion.

The completed magic circle began to emit light and cover the entire arena.

“Wow!”

“A magic circle? In which gap?”

“As expected, it’s Diane! I can’t believe this time Diene is…!”

Even though the magic circle had been activated, Diene’s expression was not vigilant.

As I watched, wary of me rushing at any moment, I stopped moving for a moment and looked at her.

“Diene.”

“uh. I’m sorry, but I’ll take this match as well.”

“no. Diane, you made a mistake like last time.”

“……Same mistake as last time?”

“Again, you overlooked my magical abilities too much. And I fought back softly.”

Jijijik—

The magic circle that was activated suddenly twisted.

A magic circle that changes just as I intend.

“you……!”

“The sword is so excellent that it doesn’t see the light relatively, but I’m definitely a member of the magic department at Laudelen Academy.”

It was a bit difficult, but I changed the formula and circuit.

Even so, the results are vastly different.

“ah!”

“Did you notice?”

It was simple.

Making the range of the magic circle to be applied to the caster himself.

If this magic circle were killing magic, I wouldn’t have been able to use this method, but I could transform it without any burden.

“This is a draw……”

“No.”

I put more aura on Galaksur.

And he took a stance of innocence.

“As I said before, I will win.”

“what?”

Soon the magic circle was activated and magic poured out.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…

Whoo! Jijijijigi——!

And those magics split in front of my sword.
