Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits Chapter 30

Episode 30. Dismissal of Professorship and the Evolution of Nickel

“Misunderstanding? The professor knows better than anyone else that I invented this potion after researching it for over a year!”

“You can’t be quiet! Who do you dare to shout at! And you have to speak right. The potion you’ve been researching and this potion I made are completely different. Where are you sitting in a crowd!”

As the voices of the two increased, crowds began to gather because it was already a time when there were many people.

“what? did you get into a fight?”

“no. A student came and said that the potion he developed was stolen?”

“really? No, no matter how much it was, how could a person like a professor steal so openly?”

Certainly, it is unclear whether the owner of that potion is a student or not.

However, without that student going crazy, would he see things that do not belong to him and fight against the professor?

I slowly turned my steps and returned to them.

“That professor?”

“Adrias? Why are you still here?”

“I just had a question while taking the exam. Could you please answer me?”

“Now is not the right time. Ask next time.”

“The question about the potion just now. By any chance, why didn’t you add the African rosin?”

“Yes? Didn’t I say I’d take questions later?”

I could see Professor Burban’s bewilderment.

And the answer to my question flowed from the mouth of the student who came to ask Burban.

“Applica rosin is definitely more effective than citmin petals. However, it was excluded from the list of potion ingredients due to a critical flaw.”

“What are the downsides?”

“Because of cost performance. The price of applique rosin is nearly 20 times more expensive than that of citmin petals. However, the resulting efficacy does not make a 20-fold difference. That’s why we excluded the applica rosin.”

The student named Gerolf, who was quick to answer my question, looked at Burban with a questioning expression.

After reading this atmosphere, the onlookers began to hum.

“what? Isn’t it really a potion made by that student?”

“I know. Are you talking like you made it yourself?”

“Come to think of it, I heard that sometimes professors with strong character steal their students’ papers or artifact patents. Could it be that?”

Hearing the murmur, Burban’s expression gradually rotted.

But my questions are not over yet.

This time I dug a little trap… … .

“Thank you for answer. So, what do you think about using papyrus or butterfly dust powder instead of beetle powder?”

I deliberately forgot to name some of the ingredients.

I was still in the middle of the exam, so I couldn’t directly say the answer with my own mouth.

Of course, Gerolf had mentioned citmine petals before, but I didn’t say it, so I didn’t know.

I asked about the application of rosin, which is obviously far from the right answer.

Of the two who heard my question, Burban was the first to speak.

Perhaps he was in a hurry, so he waved his hands and spoke quickly.

“That’s it! Because using papyrus or butterfly dust powder instead of runaway beetles does more harm than good! The Dojouri beetle, the key ingredient of this potion, activates the metabolism and helps awaken the brain, but using papyrus or dust powder can cause hallucinations, motion sickness, muscle relaxation, and even depression.”

Burban gave an answer close to the theory.

Thanks to this, the onlookers were watching with excitement as to who really owned the potion.

And I was waiting for Burban to answer like that.

Now tell me the real answer. Gerolf.

“What do you think, fellow students?”

“I’m sorry, but as the owner of the potion, I didn’t use papi or butterfly dust powder considering what the professor said.”

“What? what!”

Burban looked up at Gerolf with what he was talking about.

And Gerolf said, scratching his head a little awkwardly.

“Of course, papina butterfly dust powder is famous for its many side effects. But the reason I didn’t use it was simply to make it easier to take.”

“What is that… … ?”

“I tasted it myself while making this potion. If you look at the number of times, it seems to be almost thousands of times. As a result, I often had an upset stomach, but the commonality that came out every time I had an upset stomach was when dust powder entered. Dust powder can also be used as a substitute for beetles, but I thought that if it was a potion for people to take, at least it wouldn’t hurt. That’s why I used the runaway beetle, which is a little more expensive than dust powder, but doesn’t get sick.”

Gerolf’s account of his experience evoked admiration from the audience.

And that admiration soon became a look of suspicion and began to fly to Burban.

“Oh no. That’s obviously to reduce side effects… … .”

“Of course, when I explained to the professor in the past, I said it was to reduce side effects. However, the side effect I was talking about was not the side effect you assumed, but just a simple upset stomach.”

“this person… … .”

Burban was at a loss for words and couldn’t do anything about it, then gave a shout.

“Get off now! How dare you disturb the sacred evaluation time! I will refer both of you to the Academy Disciplinary Committee!”

wow ugly

In the end, Burban had self-inflicted water.

Seeing Burban’s reaction, numerous students started booing.

“Ooh!”

“Aren’t you ashamed of being a professor!”

“How can you steal the student’s performance and install it proudly, you devil!”

“Burban Fernandez, give up your professorship!”

As if a protest had taken place, the surroundings became noisy, and even the herbalists taking the exam criticized Burban.

Even when he heard fierce criticism from around him, Burban rather raised his blood and pointed his finger at him.

More than half of the words about how excited he was were nothing but muffled shouts.

It was then.

“quiet.”

With someone’s word, the son-in-law fell into silence in an instant.

The tremendous sight gave me goosebumps without even realizing it.

“I came to see what the fuss was about, but it’s very spectacle.”

The person who spoke slowly walked out.

The one who silenced the surroundings was none other than Bahat Alven.

He created a temporary vacuum in the space around him, then released it, and the goosebumps never ceased from the tremendous skill and magical power.

“Other Tower Lord.”

“okay. Burban Fernandez. It’s very funny. What is this? The professor’s face has been crumpled to the ground.”

“Top Lord. There is something wrong with this… … .”

“Originally, the dean of the department, Burial, would have to manage this, but he’s out of the office right now, so I’ll make the decision.”

At the top of the academy is the principal, who is the general manager of the academy, and the dean of departments below him.

As you know, there is a knight department and a magic department, so there is one head of each department, and the two of them took care of the external affairs.

Rodlen’s Magic Tower was a mixture of several organizations, and the influence of the imperial family was particularly strong.

Originally, Bahat, the owner of such a mage tower, was not supposed to intervene in the affairs of the politically neutral academy, but to be honest, no one could stop him from interfering.

“Burbann Fernandez. You will first be investigated by the Imperial Survey Corps.”

“His Highness Alven! I feel sorry for you!”

“Are you embarrassed? Then can I use mind-type magic on you right now?”

“Oh that’s… … .”

“Anyway, you were destined to be caught someday. Berial already figured out that the money you guys siphoned off in the name of research wasn’t even a dime or two. Besides, even after you took up the position of professor, you openly received personal requests. Can you deny it?”

“ah… … .”

Bubban sat down on the floor.

Then he crawled on the floor begging for both hands.

“sorry! never! I will never make this mistake again. Please be lenient, Your Highness Alven!”

Looking at him with pitiful eyes, Bahat clicked his tongue and looked around.

“Stop breaking up now. Why are you gathering here just because you had a good view?”

Then he ordered the herbology students who were taking the exam to disperse, so they didn’t have to worry about their scores.

“You were the owner of the potion, right? You will have to explain the whole story of this case in detail.”

“yes. Tower Lord.”

Gerolf nodded, and Bahat’s gaze turned to me this time.

“and… … Adrias Cromwell.”

“yes. Tower Lord.”

“Is it yours again?”

ha ha ha.

Iknow, right. I was just doing what I usually do.

He didn’t speak his mind, just smiled awkwardly.

“Why are you laughing like a shy wife? Write a statement about what happened today. Without missing a single one.”

“yes. sure.”

It was a bit of a waste of time, but it didn’t matter because it seemed like 10 years of congestion had gone away just by fucking the burban.

After speaking, Bahat turned around and spoke to me again.

“I’ve been watching, but you seem to have a clear talent for making potions, so you can expect a bet. Please, I hope you surprise me.”

what. Were you watching from the beginning?

Seeing that he didn’t show up right away, he must have been peeping like a pervert somewhere else.

It’s like a bad inspiration anyway.

Still, thanks to Bahat, I took care of that ugly professor, so let’s look at this.

I nodded vigorously to my water lord.

“sure. We are preparing diligently.”

“Hehe. bouncer.”

Burban was still sitting on the floor, bruising with a soulless expression.

Bahat grabbed such a burban and disappeared as it was.

It’s ugly. You should have touched someone who would touch that.

* * *

“Hoo-wook!”

He exhaled and stabbed his sword hard.

Now, the firmly established muscles of the shoulders and forearms showed off their presence.

The current time is 2:00 AM.

Today, because of what happened with Burban, I was taken away by Bahat and didn’t have enough time to practice swordsmanship.

Of course, I was exercising steadily every morning in the gym, but what I am doing now is swordsmanship training.

Whiik!

The sword flashed with sharp momentum.

With the power of potions, the power of swordsmanship increases with each passing day, and it has long since surpassed the beginner’s realm.

‘If I had been taught by Nickel, my skills would have improved a lot.’

Still, I was soon able to take lessons from Nickel again.

The reason I was holding the sword until this late.

The reason is that the evolution of nickel will end in a little while now.

‘How did it change?’

I was curious even as I was looking forward to it.

I’ve been through two evolutions so far.

It was the evolution of Angela’s case and talent.

Talent is just a step up, so it goes on, and Angela’s appearance has changed.

‘It felt as if the species itself had changed.’

Maybe the type of nickel will change, but I couldn’t imagine what it would change into.

‘There are many types of undead. But wouldn’t it suddenly become a Death Knight?’

I dreamed of happiness for a while.

You’ll find out soon anyway, so I focused on swinging the sword again.

Let’s swing the sword like that for another 30 minutes… .

[The Skeleton Soldier (Legendary) has evolved.]

The system screen informed me of the evolution of Nickel.

I put down my sword and prepared my mind.

“Wait. nickel. Come out now.”

I couldn’t hide my anticipation and called Nickel with my voice.

Then, a black subspace opened in the air, and something in the form of a human finally appeared.
