I Became The Academy Necromancer

Chapter 12

12. Lover

“Here you go.”

Black tea served by Finden Ai along with polite words. After taking a sip, I pushed the glass away.

Before I could say anything, a grumble erupted from Finden Eye.

“Even picky eating, master?”

“Findenai, this is the first order.”

Pinden Eye comes out shamelessly. I said with my eyes fixed on the book I was reading.

“Don’t make tea again. Tea is precious in Northwedon, but you burn it like pig urine.”

“This bird… … !”

It was Finden Ai who was about to spit out curse words, but I ignored it and continued to peruse the book.

If you ask me if I like books, that’s a bit ambiguous. Although I often read novels for killing time.

I liked games and visual media more.

Anyone living in the 21st century could say it was natural, but I had a slightly different reason.

Cell phones and computers have a lot of resentment, so I naturally moved my hobby there because I couldn’t touch them unless it was a powerful ghost.

Even if I borrowed a book I liked at the bookstore, ghosts would often interfere and pay for it by tearing it up.

The story leaked out a bit.

Anyway, the reason I read now was simply to accumulate knowledge.

Since he suddenly fell into this world, he lacked basic knowledge no matter how much he acquired it.

I read books not because I wanted to, but because I needed them, and especially when it came to magic, I had no sense of prejudice in accumulating knowledge for the sake of a professorship.

However, a strange smell began to flow into the room.

Even though I wanted to continue reading, I had no choice but to cover the book because of the strange smell that pierced my nose.

“ha. Skrull.”

[Yes, Master.]

A Sk’Al that appeared in a place that was empty at my call. Finden-Eye glances around, asking what he’s talking about, but of course he can’t see Squall.

“What does this smell like?”

“smell? What are you talking about?”

Finden Eye intervenes. When I ordered her to keep her mouth shut, she immediately crossed her arms and pouted her lips.

[On Wednesdays, a smell leaks from the basement of the mansion.]

“wednesday?”

[Yes, that’s right. I tried to check it, but I couldn’t check it because there was a very strong evil spirit blocking the underground.]

“… … .”

Touching the tip of my chin with my hand, I slightly turned my gaze to Finden Eye.

“Findenai, you must not have any smell, right?”

“Yes, I have better senses than the average person, so I can’t miss it.”

“i get it.”

The moment I thought I should check the basement, I heard a knock from outside.

When I chin, Finden-ai strides forward with steps uncharacteristic of a maid, and opens the door firmly.

“Umm, is this Miss Deia?”

“I must have taught you respectful words?”

“Remember. I just won’t.”

“That’s even worse.”

Deia and Finden Ai are fighting each other. The maid, Findenai, has to bow down and enter, but her neck stiffens even more.

As if she knew that it would be her loss to deal with her, Deia passed by Finden Eye and said.

“5 minutes.”

I wonder if it was buried naturally after not coming for a while, but it came to me only today.

I guess it was only today that I was busy for a while because of the scrap metal dealer members.

“Findenai, stay out.”

“Yes.”

Finden Ai walks out while stretching his horse’s tail. Sk’al had already disappeared before I could speak.

Deia entered the room with footsteps unique to shoes.

She had a pocket watch in her hand.

click.

“start.”

Being blunt, Deia started measuring time like a wooden doll. I just stared at her in silence.

Tick tock.

Time keeps moving.

Deia, who kept her mouth shut with her arms crossed at first, also passed a minute.

2 minutes pass.

In the end, I frowned as I just stared at Deia without saying anything for the entire 5 minutes.

Her mouth twitched as if she wanted to ask something, but she quickly turned and left.

Finden Ai, who came back naturally, shrugs, saying it’s not fun.

“I wanted to talk about something, but it was quiet. Did you have a written conversation?”

“No need to worry. And from now on, don’t eavesdrop on my time with Deia.”

“Ha, you have a lot of requirements. Like my nose, I have good ears, so I can hear it even if I don’t want to hear it.”

Finden Ai tapping his ear and being sarcastic. Thinking that I need to change my attitude, I got up.

“From now on, when you spend time with Deia, stay outside the mansion.”

“… … It’s only five minutes, so you want me to go outside?”

“I’ll just bring a cigarette and come back.”

“aha.”

Finden I nodded with a broad smile. Smoking was prohibited in front of my eyes, so she was struggling quite a bit.

“Then go.”

“… … Where?”

Findenai hadn’t heard the conversation with Skrull, but he had no intention of explaining it.

Even if I didn’t say it anyway, she had no choice but to follow me.

As I went outside in silence, the footsteps of Finden Eye, grumbling behind me, followed like a shadow.

Professor Keren, who is in the midst of investigating the strange case at Robern Academy, entered Professor Peril’s laboratory.

Professor Perrill passed out on the first day of his full-time job since coming to the academy.

An unrivaled authority on body-related magic, she hadn’t set foot in the lab since the first day.

“You mean this mirror?”

Based on Peril’s testimony, I stand in front of a full-length mirror in the lab.

A beautiful woman in a white gown.

The sword scar running down his nose was impressive on his face.

The dull gray eyes tied in a ponytail seemed to be judging everything in the world with a skeptical standard.

“Looks like there’s no problem.”

Did you say that even if you turn around, you still see yourself in the mirror? Karen turns around once, but Karen in the mirror only turns the same way.

“Yeah.”

Keren stroked his chin, pulled out the sword tied to his waist, and swung it as it was.

“You turned in the same direction as me, you.”

Clink!

A shattered mirror.

The mirror, which should have been left and right, turned in the same direction as himself.

Among the shards of the broken mirror, I could see Karen herself laughing and giggling.

“It seems there is definitely something here.”

Professor Perrill’s laboratory.

However, this place was originally the laboratory of Deus Verdi, a professor of disloyalty.

“This place was the beginning.”

In terms of time, this laboratory was the first place where the anomaly occurred.

Professor Peril said he saw a girl with long hair, along with countless screams and resentments.

“It doesn’t come out.”

No matter how long I wait, that kind of girl won’t come out.

Thinking that it would be a pity that it ended with only one mirror, he began to look around the laboratory.

Former Professor Deius used a lot of equipment from Robern Academy and left most of his things behind, so there were quite a few things he didn’t want to look for.

“for now… … .”

As I moved, wanting to open the professor’s desk, the door burst open.

I thought it was an anomaly, but it wasn’t.

“What are you doing here?”

A beautiful woman with blonde hair hanging down her shoulders in a plait, and the fiancée of Deius Verdi.

It was Erica Bright.

“Oh, Professor Erica. You’re welcome. Did your fiancé tell you anything about this incident?”

Erica openly frowns at Keren who stabs her right in.

“I haven’t had any contact with him since he was fired. And he has absolutely nothing to do with this case.”

“… … Not related?”

“Yes, no.”

Erica answered so emphatically that Keren started to get suspicious of her.

“Why do you think so?”

Erica is offended by Karen’s interrogation.

“Professor Karen sees this as some kind of terrorism, right? But he doesn’t have that kind of ability. In fact, a criminal who can’t even get the title of professor. I was barely able to even attach the name of a guest professor because I was single.”

“Hmm.”

Certainly, looking at the materials that Professor Deus had left behind, there were only very basic magic books.

Well, basic things that make you want to see something like this.

“So don’t go after incompetent people and find the right culprit.”

“Well, I will do it on my own. As you know, the dean has handed over the entire authority of the investigation of this case to me.”

“… … .”

Erika kept her mouth shut as she had already received a report on that.

thump thump.

Heavy footsteps echoed in the hallway. Both of them knew that this was not an anomaly.

Because his ground-shaking gait was quite famous at Robern Academy.

“Huh? Our academy beauty professors are all gathered here.”

A tall stature and beautiful, harmonious muscles like a statue. A bold appearance and passionate exposure where the word handsome comes out naturally.
