Necromancer’s Evolutionary Traits

[ Episode 326. With Portion]

After returning from an unexpected evaluation, Lewis took a long break at Alven Street.

“What do you want to eat?”

“I don’t mind anything as long as it’s meat.”

And around him, other people who shared the evaluation were sitting at the table.

“Come to think of it, it was on Alven Street that I first met Benjamin, right? I was really young back then.”

“When are you talking about?”

Serena laughed at what Benjamin said with a straight face. However, as if that reaction was rather amusing, Serena pointed at Benjamin’s swords.

“At that time, you don’t know how funny it was to see a little boy hanging around with a bunch of swords hanging from a sword the size of his height. Now I just have to look at it.”

“These are the swords that my older brother gave me. It’s not something to laugh at.”

“I was laughing at you, not at the swords. haha.”

Looking at Serena, who seemed to be in a good mood after a long time, Chris interjected softly.

“Serena doesn’t have to pretend to be so excited.”

“what?”

“I’ve said it before, but you always forcibly brighten up when something is out of your power.”

Chris’s words changed the mood.

Serena silently glared at Chris, then sighed.

“It doesn’t really matter if you pretend to be excited or not.”

“I think this evaluation was meaningful in its own way.”

As soon as the ordered food was served and set on the table, Chris bluntly picked up a knife and said,

“I don’t believe in the crises you mentioned before, but this evaluation was definitely a good experience.”

“Are you… are you okay?”

Lewis asked Chris, who was eating the meat without hesitation.

“What do you mean?”

“First experience…wasn’t it?”

“You mean killing people? Biologically, they can be called human, but they are not ‘human’ by my standards.”

Lewis nodded his head, watching Chris speak firmly.

“You think so.”

“On the contrary, I feel proud when I think of the people they killed or will kill.”

“That is correct.”

Benjamin agreed, grabbing the meat with both hands and tearing it open.

“I’ve already dealt with nasty guys before entering the academy, so I thought it was rather good.”

“I see.”

The world is wide and people have different thoughts.

Louis couldn’t seem to get any appetite, so he just blankly watched the others eat and lost himself in thought.

‘If you don’t kill me, I will die. Could that really justify my murder? What was the reason I raised the sword? What did I want to do after entering the academy?’

Serena, who was watching Louis, suddenly changed the subject.

“More than that, I don’t know how the professor was able to ask ‘him’ for us.”

Everyone’s ears perked up at Serena’s word ‘that person’.

Maximin Cronell, a person whose name is feared to be mentioned within the Empire.

“I heard that there was an exchange when the professor was still attending the academy, but is that relationship still going on?”

“I said see you next time. He said he only looked at me more than I thought.”

The strongest swordsman known for being notorious but as strong as his notoriety. He was not as evil as one might have thought.

‘He was a little blunt, but he wasn’t a bad person.’

Maybe that’s why Adrias also got along with him?

Most of all, Maximin subtly added advice on swords.

“I was lucky.”

Chris nodded.

“I don’t think there are any guys as lucky as us. Even though I didn’t receive much help, it’s important that I had a relationship with him.”

“Still, if you get caught, it will be quite a headache. Especially in the family…”

Serena said with an awkward smile.

Even to Louis and Benjamin, who were not from aristocrats, it was clear that they would be in great trouble if they found out that they had met Maximin.

“It’s a double-edged sword.”

“It’s true that it’s dangerous, but there are plenty of people who will sell their families in order to have a relationship with him.”

At that time, the store suddenly became noisy.

The group’s heads turned naturally at the sudden uproar.

“What is going on?”

“I will check and come back.”

Immediately, Benjamin got up from his seat and approached the noisy crowd.

“Did something happen?”

“huh? Oh, are you a student at the Faculty of Engineering? A while ago, a message arrived on the tablet to all the students of the Faculty of Magic, and Nivas’s choice was announced.”

“Nivas’ choice?”

“A new warlock.”

Is it the birth of a superman?

Speaking of superhuman, it was Benjamin that reminded Adrias, whose superhuman proof did not produce results.

“And Professor Adrias was on that list!”

“……yes?”

I wondered if I had heard it wrong for a moment.

I was thinking of Adrias, so my head was confused.

“You have the youngest professor in the academy! I heard that you are active in the Engineering Department these days, don’t you know?”

“I know. I know you heard me wrong.”

“It is definitely surprising. The youngest Warlock! The magic academia is going to go crazy, and since you were invited to the Nivas Festival, a lot of wizards who want to see Professor Adrias’s original magic will come in droves!”

Benjamin nodded with a dazed expression and returned to his seat leaving a thank you.

“what?”

“Professor Adrias has become a Warlock.”

“what?!”

“I am also confused whether what I heard is true, but according to that person, it is.”

The people who heard the story Benjamin had heard were at a loss for words.

“Wasn’t our professor Aura Master?”

“Then are you an Auror Master and a Warlock at the same time? It is an achievement that will go down in history.”

“Is that just the reaction? Are you more surprised?”

Serena gave a look of astonishment and got up from her seat.

“I ate it all. I’ll go first.”

“Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Can you stay still after hearing this news? I need to go and practice some more.”

At Serena’s words, Benjamin also got up with a piece of meat in both hands.

“I will go in first.”

When Serena and Benjamin disappeared, only Lewis and Chris were left awkwardly at the table.

“If you don’t want to eat any more, you go first.”

“no. I’ll be there later.”

“I am burdened. If you’re not going to eat, don’t occupy your seat and follow them. I’ll go if I eat it all.”

At Chris’ words, Louis finally got up from his seat. There was still a lot of commotion around, but it was all about Adrias.

“Awesome.”

Standing at the pinnacle of one field was something others would have to achieve over the course of a lifetime. Adrias, however, was at the pinnacle of both fields at such a young age, so the monstrous nickname was fitting.

‘I said I’d definitely catch up with you someday…’

Now he was a senior who had gone too far.

**

“Take this too.”

“I already got it, Vivian.”

“Then what about this?”

“That too.”

“Um, what is this?”

Just before leaving for Portion, Vivian broke into my room and inspected my luggage.

Then, with a troubled expression on her face, she murmured.

“Should I follow you as far as I can?”

“Then I’m good, but wouldn’t it be too much effort? Portrion takes a long time here too.”

“Time or distance doesn’t matter. And if something dangerous happens along the way, I won’t be able to protect you.”

Vivian soon put on a serious expression and then spoke to me.

“I will go with you as far as the Portion area. And stay nearby until the festival is over and go back together when you go back.”

Looking at Vivian, who has been talking a lot for the first time in a while, I smiled unconsciously.

“Why are you laughing?”

“Because it’s so cute.”

“what?”

Seeing Vivian tilt her head, I felt very fortunate. The fact that she is alive unlike the original and that she likes me.

“All right. Then let’s go to Portion together. Then, should I pack Vivian’s stuff from now on?”

“huh. But I don’t have much to prepare, so it’ll be over soon anyway.”

Tring!

Just then, the tablet rang.

It was probably Lucia, but when I checked, it was as expected.

“Lucia says she woke up now. Will that leave you with a lot of time?”

“I’ll pack my things and leave soon. Go to Lucia first.”

“All right. Then I’ll be waiting for you at the Magic Tower.”

I put the prepared luggage into the space expansion backpack and left the room. What was still disappointing was the space expansion artifact, but the belt-type artifact that Mejour brought with it splattered in my eyes.

‘I made sure it wasn’t Paissy. Where the hell did Mejour go?’

At the time of defeating the Lich King, I wondered if it might have disappeared together, but it was ambiguous. If so, there should be no reason for the artifacts to disappear.

It was already a thing of the past, so it was just regretful to think about it. And I didn’t have to worry about those kinds of things because I could get them from hidden dungeons or hidden ruins if I wanted to.

‘If you’re lucky, you might be able to get it from Portion.’

When I entered the Rodelian Magic Tower, which I had arrived at, the wizard in charge of the guide in the hall on the first floor greeted me.

“oh! Aren’t you Adrias! What did you do today…?”

“I came to see Lucia. We decided to go to the Nivas Festival together.”

“ah! You’re trying to take Lucia as a teaching assistant. I’m so envious of Lucia. You can go right up.”

“thank you.”

When the fact that I was a warlock became known, the way wizards looked at me changed dramatically.

I didn’t ask openly, but everyone seemed to be curious about my original magic.

smart smart

When I knocked on the door of Lucia’s lab, which I had already visited several times, I heard someone from inside.

Click!

Soon the door opened and Lucia greeted me with sleepy eyes.

“Haaam. Are you here?”

“I told you I was leaving early today, but it looks like a spectacle.”

“The preparations were already finished the day before. You just have to go like this.”

Lucia rubbed her eyes and said.

I checked on her, still looking sleepy, and looked around the lab.

“What are you studying these days?”

“Destruction.”

It was a simple answer.

If someone else heard it, it’s an answer that would ask what it was.

But having already played her dozens of times in the game, I got a little goosebumps.

“Can you show me one more time?”

“Eh? Will you steal it?”

“What are you stealing? That’s what we write together.”

“That’s stealing.”

Lucia and I joked nonsense, then sat down somewhere.

“What is it. Aren’t you leaving?”

“Vivian will come too. We decided to go together only as far as the Portion area.”

“……is it so?”

The response was a little lukewarm.

I thought you’d like it, but I’m surprised.

“More than that, when will you tell me about your original magic?”

“Huh? Are you going to steal it?”

“Everyone writes and does that. Tell them they steal something again.”

After talking about magic for the first time in a while, Vivian quickly arrived. She really didn’t have much to prepare, and she looked no different from when she came to my room.

“Welcome, sister.”

“huh.”

But somehow, Lucia’s reaction from earlier was a bit subtle. Should I say I’m bored? Something doesn’t look like fun.

“Let’s go.”

“yes.”

“huh.”

I guess it’s because I’m still sleepy. When you arrive in Portion, you will be energized.

‘I’m looking forward to it too.’

Portrion, the city of wizards.

Not only was it a different environment than usual, but it was also a city where many hidden pieces and Easter eggs had already been discovered in the game, so I had no choice but to look forward to it.

You will be able to meet the named characters that you have not met in the meantime.
