I Became The Academy Necromancer - Chapter 333
333. Celebration
A battlefield filled with heat and frenzy.
As the morning dew rises, only the quiet sound of footsteps echoes.
Because the wolf in the shape of a rampaging tiger has already gone somewhere.
The great path of light that she had risked her life to protect was empty and empty.
Today’s hero returns to the world, embracing his fiancé
The pitiful tears have already stopped. Her eyes were stained red, but she pretended like nothing was wrong and she was hugging Deius’ body.
Everyone here knew that what they were seeing was the end of the incident.
Originally, there should have been cheers. He destroyed the great evil, saved the world, and killed the necromancer who had the power to destroy the continent.
We should have applauded, smiled, and thanked God for the beautiful results achieved by all nations working together.
No one could be happy to see a woman who killed the man she loved for the sake of the continent.
The army clears the way for Erica Bright, who is heading out of the academy while holding Deius.
Like.
It was a scene that seemed to commemorate the death of Deius Verdi.
* * *
The funeral was simple.
In fact, it wasn’t even a funeral.
It was just a nameless grave left in Gray Pond.
Without anyone knowing.
Very quietly.
However, compared to that, many people visited. Starting with Tyrn and Gloria, who were commanders on the battlefield.
Saint Lucia and her princess her her her Eleanor.
Everyone stood in front of his grave for a long time. Also, most of them had similar facial expressions.
The last person to come was the griffin’s owner, Orpheus Luden Griffin.
Late at night.
He stood at the tomb with his face covered with a robe, accompanied only by Gloria, his bodyguard
A grave without a name.
There wasn’t a single flower placed in the simple grave, but it was clean and free of dust.
Orpheus knelt down on one knee in front of the tomb and bowed his head.
“It took a while to sort it out. “There were VIPs from other countries, so I couldn’t just leave the place.”
A small whisper.
The King apologizes for being the last to come and swallows a bitter breath.
“Thanks to Erica Bright’s execution of you, we were able to preserve our status. “She is a strong candidate for the next Grand Mage.”
I tried to speak calmly.
“Rather, they would have reevaluated the level of magic in our kingdom. Thanks to this, even Zerman, which seemed to be preparing for war with us, changed direction.”
However, his voice becomes blurred little by little, as if he was unable to hide his dark emotions.
“You disappeared… I thought the oppression of warlocks would become more severe. “The memorial service decided that it wouldn’t work anymore.”
In fact, the perception towards warlocks was not very positive, and there was a prevailing skepticism about the position of a memorial priest.
“Plague Weaver Vequelin and Blood Mage Pelestan. Thanks to these two people, our medical field is growing explosively. “You could call it progress.”
Thanks to these two people, the image of warlocks was gradually softening.
Because it was presenting an innovative paradigm regarding incurable diseases and blood transfusions that had not been cured until now.
“Two people said that. You… He told me to prepare to be a hero.”
Deius personally went and spoke to Beklin, who was imprisoned in the magic tower, and also asked for the blood mage Pelestan when he was first captured.
Becklin had no choice. Pelestan received Ruaneth’s will and decided to dedicate himself to the Griffin Kingdom.
“Owen Baltani was supposed to take charge of the funeral. The boy is not a warlock… “I comfort souls simply through playing.”
If a warlock had sat in the memorial hall’s seat again, there would have been a backlash.
Owen doesn’t have that ability.
There is nothing to do but play and please the souls.
Thanks to this, he was able to establish himself as the second memorial envoy.
“So you were this busy?”
Everything was ready.
That’s it.
“To take responsibility even after your death? Didn’t he also teach black magic separately in order to renew the image of the black magician that would be ruined through him and to seat Owen in the position of the second memorial wizard?”
I really hated it.
“Why…”
In the end, King Orpheus laid his hands on his tombstone and shed tears.
Gloria, the head of the guard knights behind her, secretly turned her body and pretended not to see her.
The king’s tears were something no one should see.
“Why have you burned your life for the sake of the afterlife!”
If you heard this now.
He must have been calm and answered as usual.
– I am a necromancer.
Life and death.
The man closest to the border.
From noble mtl dot come
That’s why he worried about the afterlife as he lived, and after death, he takes care of the lives of those who remain.
“Friend.”
Orpheus also knows because he heard the explanation.
He is still living somewhere now, not as Deius Verdi, but as someone else.
We are still fulfilling our responsibilities for the continent.
Deius died, but the souls in his body were still asleep.
His body was buried neatly without any blemishes.
And that is the final mission of a friend living somewhere on this earth.
“No one will recognize you, but you are a great hero who still supports this land.”
Orpheus slowly crouched towards the tomb and his forehead touched the ground.
“More than the pride of being the king of griffins.”
The flowing tears soak the ground.
For the first time.
The king knelt down towards someone and bowed his head.
“It was my greatest honor to be your close friend.”
* * *
Lovern Academy was having quite a busy time because the opening season was a little late.
“Keu!”
It was the same for Professor Per Petra.
She has recently written a thesis on prosthesis and submitted it to the academic world, creating a huge stir. She has also been exceptionally busy at the academy.
There are rumors going around that a new school called Bio-Magicology will be established through her innovative research results.
Actually, she wasn’t very interested in that part.
“Whoa.”
After finishing her main task, Per takes a look around her. A laboratory that I now use alone.
The traces of Deius were quietly and slowly being erased through time.
“For now, it’s roughly finished.”
After stretching, Per slowly stands up and looks out the window. Now that I think about it, I need to bring in a teaching assistant.
Until now, we had been using the same laboratory as Deius, so there was no space to bring in people.
“It’s a shame.”
In fact, Deius was absent from the academy much more often than when he was present.
He was much more enthusiastic as a memorial officer than as a professor, and that was natural.
Is that why?
It seemed like if I just waited like this, Deius would come in with his usual stern expression
“They say it all comes to an end in the end.”
Who would have predicted that a relationship would end this way.
Professor Per was feeling both regret and worry.
The regret is directed towards the deceased Deius. The worry was directed towards his friend, Erica Bright, who would kill her fiancé and ascend to the position of archmage.
“This kind of ending is so cruel.”
She was someone who couldn’t speak properly in front of people, but when she was alone, she talked to herself a lot.
“The sky is so indifferent.”
Per was looking out the window with his lips pouting. What interrupted her thoughts was the sound of a knock on the door outside.
“Per, are you done?”
“Eh, Professor Erica?!”
They say even tigers come if you tell them.
I was thinking about her just at the right time. How did she come at such a good time?
Professor Per looks very startled, as if he’s been stabbed, and inertically shakes off the lab coat he’s wearing and heads out.
Erica, who was waiting, had a calm expression.
Some say it’s the same as usual, but Per knew. She said she looked a little different.
“Yes yes! I almost finished it!”
“Okay, then let’s go now.”
Today was the day of the appreciation plaque presentation ceremony between Professor Per and Erica Bright.
This was because Professor Per was on the verge of founding a new school by creating a prosthetic body similar to the actual human body.
Erica was designated as the next Grand Wizard to succeed Rockpelican.
Thanks to this, the auditorium was now crowded with Rockpelican and his students.
Closed auditorium door.
At the entrance, the professors who were in charge of the proceedings gave a signal from inside and opened the door.
The two enter, receiving a solemn welcome from the students and professors.
‘Ugh, my stomach hurts.’
Professor Per, who was not very pleased with this situation, complained of stomach pain with a pale expression and waved his hand.
Erica was calm, so she was just walking down the path they had opened for her.
The professors and the great wizard’s students whisper while looking at her like that.
Looking at Erica’s recent actions, people often said that.
It seems as if Deius Verdi’s chill has moved to her.
In fact, Professor Per also thought the same thing. She also knew that if she didn’t do something like that, Erica wouldn’t be able to survive.
The ceremony proceeded with numerous audience members applauding and cheering.
After Professor Per first received a plaque of appreciation from the principal, it was Erica’s turn to her.
In particular, Archmage Rock Pelican stood at the podium and grabbed her microphone.
He gave appropriate well-wishes to the students of her academy and asked for a round of applause for his new successor, Erica Bright.
“…”
Slowly.
And calmly.
Erica is called out to the auditorium and looks around at the people applauding her.
‘Congratulations.’
Students congratulating.
Fellow professors applauding loudly.
Her own assistants who even made her cry.
The great wizard’s disciples who either acknowledge the merits or are jealous of them.
There were many different emotions, but in the end, it was true that I was being celebrated.
In the history of Griffin, he became the youngest person to be given the title of Grand Wizard.
I will be working as a professor for now, but now that the semester is over, I will be called to the royal palace to work.
We are celebrating.
Everyone.
Killed my fiancé.
They were congratulating themselves on piercing the heart of their loved one.
“Congratulations.”
Before I knew it, I was standing in front of Rock Pelican. He patted her shoulder and tried to cheer her up.
With her wide eyes, she looks down at the heavy thank-you note in her hand.
– Thank you for killing your lover.
The world and the kingdom were saying that to themselves.
“Ah…”
I’ve been patient.
Really hard work.
I tried to endure it.
Erica lowered her head and buried her face in her thank you note. Her body is shaking and it is difficult to move her steps.
“Don’t cry! “Don’t cry!”
“Congratulations, Professor!”
“You look great!”
Did I misunderstand that I was crying because I was touched? The thunderous encouragement pouring in from behind seemed to make me vomit in disgust.
I hated myself so much for receiving such congratulations.
‘Deius.’
Without you.
‘Deius.’
Things like this.
‘Deius.’
What’s the use?
The luggage you left with me is not heavy at all.
If it were for you, I could write this with a smile.
‘That you don’t exist.’
That one thing is very difficult.
Erica, unable to hold back her welling up tears, forces herself to cover her face.
You have to go down first.
With that in mind, Erica took a deep breath.
[Oh.]
If it weren’t for the woman standing right next to her.
Black robes, voluptuous body, childlike elasticity.
Translucent black cloth covering under the eyes.
[It’s awesome.]
Erica’s eyes fluttered as she looked at the dark spirit who gave her thumbs up.
Now, she didn’t really understand who she was looking at.
Can’t you see the people around you?
There was no fuss left by anyone.
“You… How.”
Her lips are dry.
Erica looked like she didn’t really understand what was going on.
A woman with the opposite color appeared next to the dark spirit temple.
[Today is an important day for you…]
Stella smiled softly and said.
[I said he had to come.]
As she said that, Stella’s gaze naturally turned towards Erica’s entrance.
There.
“Ah.”
There was a man standing slowly clapping and celebrating.
Strangely, no one noticed him. Mysteriously and greatly, as if nothing is visible.
Because he was congratulating himself.
The appreciation plaque he was holding had already been thrown to the floor. The woman who came down from the podium was running without paying attention to her surroundings.
Towards him.
