The Barbarian Became a Necromancer - The Barbarian Became a Necromancer chapter 76
076.
Embarrassed, Seira quickly recovered his emotions.
Should I say he was a warrior who used to scout after all?
Still, she is unraveling in front of me.
He sighed and looked carefully at me.
“Since when did you notice?”
I guess he thought I was completely sure.
I opened my mouth to a quiet question.
“I felt strange from the beginning. Because it seemed like someone was taking care of me.”
“Ugh, I’m so sorry, stop… .”
“Where do you feel sorry for me?”
Seira avoided answering.
If you tell me, you seem to know how to run away.
I had no intention of asking obsessively.
Because there are more important issues left.
“Looks like there’s a reason you called me separately. Considering that Fenolino-sama was also accompanied… Any questions about the journey ahead?”
Was it a song?
I have no choice but to know when my body flinches like that.
“Lokram, as you noticed, I would like to offer you a companion. A tribal village in the south. Are you going there?”
“hmm.”
As if he had been waiting, Fenolino opened his mouth.
I crossed my arms to listen more.
“I heard you are not going straight away. I had a great exchange with Professor Seira during the interrogation after cutting the head of the Summoning Department. You say you can’t get past injustice and evil?”
To be precise, it was a journey for growth, but I agreed.
“That’s right.”
“Evil is wide on this continent, and they must be getting stronger along with it. I’m not denying your skills. Because the power that killed the Archbishop of Amnesia is real.”
“Is the reason you want to accompany me anyway for my convenience?”
“Something like that… Several?”
It’s unsettling to see a sly smile.
I tried to recall the meaning behind the various things Fenolino said.
I, nominally her teacher.
I’m sure he’ll be involved in the journey with all sorts of reasons.
The time to unleash your dark magic is gone.
In order to avoid her ghostly magical power, she must also consume the undead because she must use magic reversal.
So, the answer is fixed.
“As I said before, I do not welcome Mr. Fenolino’s company.”
Again, he flatly refused.
Then, as if he had waited, Fenolino took a step back.
“I knew it would come out like that. So I thought of my own point of agreement, would you like to hear it?”
“Agreement… Are you talking?”
What else would you like to suggest?
While touching the call of Kelligas with an ominous feeling, Seira cleared her throat.
“Hmm. Can I tell you?”
It seemed like they planned it in advance.
I made eye contact with her.
“Knowing that Lokram would come out like this, Fenolino-sama changed the direction. You know I’m the contact, so I’ll be straight. From now on, I will assist without hiding my appearance.”
“How do you assist?”
“As we have done so far, we will watch over Lokram. Call us if you need help. I will join you only then.”
“I like that. and?”
Anyway, it’s the same distance as usual.
You should be able to respond in the same way.
Now, the following matters.
“I will communicate with Fenolino through the disk of whispers. You will be able to quickly get the necessary items or letters through Fenolino-nim.”
That’s a good suggestion.
Although the process of sending and receiving letters to Cain Academy took a considerable amount of time.
With the support of Fenolino, who can operate portals or teleports, you will be able to quickly receive materials or letters you will need in the future.
“Is that the point of agreement?”
“Yes, you can always use our help, but the choice is entirely up to Lokram-nim. How are you?”
I untied my arms and held out my hand.
“I know you came with the purpose of helping me anyway, so I’ll allow you that much.”
It is an opportunity to attach and remove the lump called phenolino as desired.
He can even call Seira for help when he needs it, so why not?
“Good luck in the future!”
“It would be nice if you could contact me often. Even better with that necklace.”
I shook hands with the two in turn.
As a result, a relationship that was supported while reducing the fear of being exposed to black magic was established.
***
Kenyal, head of the Department of Sorcery, was currently suffering from a headache.
A plan to terrorize the Alchemister School.
The instigator of the incident was the head of the Summoning Department, and the one who punished her was Lokram, a high-ranking warrior who had noticed her suspicions earlier.
It doesn’t matter if the school was protected with outside help.
If it wasn’t for Lokram, the school would have collapsed by now and the nearby city would have been swept away by monsters.
That’s why the reason I’m suffering right now is because the Department of Summoning suddenly collapsed.
‘The head of the Summoning Department isn’t helpful until the end!’
I heard the situation.
This is because Lokram uncovered the motive before beheading the woman.
The faculty and students of the Summoning Department, who were sympathetic to it, were blinded by the semester evaluation and additional points.
Because of that, not a single person is imprisoned.
As head of a department leading a department, Kenyal had a duty to deal with this situation.
‘please… If we forcibly close the door here under the pretext of school maintenance, the damage will be insignificant.’
I hoped that the chairman of the board, Fenolino, would not close the school.
Did such an earnest prayer reach the sky?
At a countermeasures meeting held a few days later, Fenolino opened up.
“Students left in the Department of Summoning will be integrated into the Department of Sorcery and Alchemy. After that, work on the internal maintenance. Let’s inform the outside of the results of the academic conference normally. Of course, you know we shouldn’t forget to nullify the disqualification of Lokram, right?”
“All right!”
I just wanted to get up and dance.
I almost lost my money line, but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t happy.
But what about Lokram?
I know that I care for him because I have seen him, but he is Fenolino who knows how to distinguish between public life and life.
To think that she would undo the already disqualified results.
“that… Can you tell me the reason for the reverse of the result regarding Lokram?”
When I asked quietly, silence fell in the conference room.
Everyone looks at Kenyal who asked the question.
Kenyal responded with a look in his eyes at the reproachful stares of the head of the alchemy department and the professors.
‘what! why! I have to point it out clearly so there won’t be any problems later!’
It is a rule that other academies and schools have never broken.
As it was the first case of breaking it, it was necessary to clarify the reason.
“The head of the Summoning Department was concerned that Lokram had seen through the plan, so he induced a disqualification at the academic conference using the rules. is not it?”
I didn’t even feel that way at the time, but everyone had to agree.
This is because the momentum emitted by Fenolino was unusual.
‘If I say no here, my life as a teacher will be over.’
The sound of swallowing dry saliva is clearly audible.
Inside the conference room, Fenolino laughed.
“Then it would be right to pass Rokram’s thesis as well. Of course, research should be conducted based on this. Lokram and Velaran students who prevented the terrorist incident should be rewarded appropriately. Aren’t you?”
“No, you are right.”
Kenyal’s response made the atmosphere more relaxed.
“Then, now that it has been concluded, will it happen? Aren’t you both busy?”
“I see. Thank you for making the wise choice yourself.”
“Well, all you have to do is implement the conclusions I have made to the best of my ability.”
Fenolino stood up and rushed out of the conference room.
***
A few weeks after the monster runaway incident.
A strange craze was blowing in the Alchemister School.
“Uh-huh, Sup! wait!”
kyaaak!
“Ah! I told you to wait!”
Students and faculty arguing with the lowest level monsters.
The faint magical lines connecting them and the monsters were heterogeneous.
“What kind of situation is this?”
It was time to leave, so I stopped by to say goodbye to Bella one last time.
Each of them wears the lowest level monsters and tries to control them.
“It happened when your thesis passed. They are experimenting with improvements made through their own reinterpretation and research.”
“Is that so?”
Fenolino’s additional explanation, which came with him, gave him a puzzled expression.
It wouldn’t work even if I tried hard.
If I could tame monsters with just my thesis, I would have done it already.
I’m a little sorry that you seem to be struggling for nothing.
“Lord Lokram!”
Of course, Bella was also involved in such practice.
She also had a slime-like monster on her shoulder.
However, it looked a little different from the others practicing based on my thesis.
“Compared to other monsters, he is particularly quiet.”
“Oh, is this? It is controlled with a herbal mixture that has a soothing effect on pheromone extract. He thought I was the female he liked and stuck with me.”
Bella approached and stabbed the monster on her shoulder.
It wriggles as if in response.
My eyes widened at the unexpected achievement.
‘perhaps… I think the true monster tamer will be Bella.’
I was thinking about that.
A group of people approached us with cautious steps.
“excuse me… Miss Bella?”
A woman who hesitates to speak in the lead.
Apparently her name was Selah.
“yes?”
Bella looked at her and the others who had suddenly approached.
They looked at Fenolino and me, then lowered their heads.
“The one that protected us from the monsters last time. thank you. And I’m sorry for all this time. I didn’t keep Miss Bella away with bad intentions.”
Bella opened her eyes wide as if it was a sudden apology.
He looks at me with eyes that don’t know what the hell this situation is.
So he said in a calm tone.
“Seeing that your connections are by your side, you’re finally coming over and pretending to apologize.”
“That, that… !”
“is not it?”
I glared straight at Selah, who raised her head to make an excuse.
I break out in a cold sweat as if I couldn’t handle my eyes.
She closed her gaping mouth.
Looking at them, Bella put on a determined expression, as if she had made up her mind.
“hmm… Please go.”
“Are you accepting my apology?”
“no? I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear it, so you mean disappear from my sight?”
“… yes?”
They are dumbfounded at their bold words.
Bella started pouring out her words in silence.
“What did you say when I said that monsters would rampage? Didn’t you laugh at me for saying that I had a delusional disease? Even if you ask for help, you just ignore it. So I will ignore you.”
The way he shakes his hand shows his confident side.
A decisive word hit them in the ear.
“go. Just as you all ignored me from the beginning, I will treat you like the first time.”
They hesitantly raised their heads.
I glanced at Fenolino with only the corners of my eyes drooping.
It seemed as if they were worried that this incident would adversely affect them.
“I won’t hold you accountable, so go.”
At my words, I took a step.
Bella shouted at the back of their heads.
“Remember this one thing! You guys are not bullying me. I’m bullying you guys. Did you know?”
I wanted to correct something, but I decided to stop after seeing Bella’s confident expression.
“We are leaving now.”
“Is that so?”
Fenolino reached out and opened the portal.
I held her hand, which I had grown accustomed to.
Bella had a last-ditch exchange with me.
“Are you going to stop by next time?”
“I will if I have time.”
“Or I’ll go find you. I’m planning to stay at Fenolino-sama’s magic tower during the vacation.”
Come to think of it, I made that promise.
If Fenolino coaches, Bella will definitely show explosive growth.
“Don’t expect it.”
I crossed the portal fist-to-fist with Bella.
Saira greeted us with a package.
“It’s a package from Lokram. what? It wasn’t from the academy.”
“I asked an acquaintance for a personal matter.”
“is it so? Get it here.”
A little later than expected.
The foundation of the black magic book that Yuria promised to send.
What she newly compiled is contained in this.
“Are you leaving right away?”
“It should be.”
I answered after capturing the package in my inventory.
Since we have almost achieved our goal, we are moving on to the next goal.
The Alchemister school said they would provide unlimited magic materials as a reward, so there was nothing more to wish for.
‘Now I’ll have to go through the Kingdom of Magic and meet Leah.’
Her birthday is in two months.
It won’t be a boring trip because you can learn black magic along the way.
“When I need something, I always call through Seira. Got it?”
“I will.”
“Come on, promise.”
Is it a little finger hook this time?
I made a promise to Fenolino, swallowing my hesitant heart.
“Lo, Lokram. me too.”
“Why are you?”
“If you need my help, you must call me right away without delay.”
“Isn’t that obvious? But I will be with you until the kingdom of magic, so there is no need to call for a while, right?”
“Promise me anyway!”
In the end, I couldn’t resist Seira’s request and gave me a finger.
Satisfied with that, he took a step back with a proud face.
Now was the real time to go.
“I can take you to the portal.”
“There is something to do on the go. So I politely decline.”
“If you are like that, I won’t recommend it anymore. Then, have a comfortable journey.”
“Thank you for taking care of us until the end.”
“Ah, Professor Seira? Can we talk for a minute?”
It is a situation where Fenolino gave you a wagon operated by the Mage Tower.
There should be no inconvenience as it is a carriage imbued with all kinds of convenient magic.
I climbed into the carriage while the two talked.
Seira boarded late with a face that reminded her of what they were talking about.
“You waited? sorry.”
“Nothing. By the way, what did you share with Fenolino-sama?”
“that… there is a run Should it be a women’s secret? Anyway, it hurts to know about Lokram.”
if you say so
I crossed my arms and closed my eyes.
In the meantime, the carriage has started, and it is moving away from the Tower of Truth.
It’s been a long time since I released the magic reversal, and I felt like I was going to live.
‘It’s a relationship that came from a misunderstanding, but a good relationship was built anyway.’
Thanks to the misunderstanding of the priest-teacher relationship, they did not even trade artifacts, which was the original purpose.
The Iron Golem and 104 Mana Stones obtained from the Dwarven City can now be saved.
Now, if it’s an artifact that will do my best to save it if you ask for it, why are you trading?
‘I couldn’t get it because I didn’t have spares right now, but they said they’d give you artifacts as soon as they arrive.’
After looking at the items in the inventory, he turned his attention to the parcel.
‘I should take a break and read it.’
I was the one who immediately understood the forbidden book where arcane magic was written.
Of course, he would be able to learn black magic as soon as he read it.
