I Became The Academy Necromancer

32. Where the boundary between life and death is blurred

“When the hell are you coming!”

The dean stamped his feet and screamed. It’s been two days since the day Deus was supposed to arrive, but his shadow still hasn’t been seen in Lovern.

If there wasn’t even a maid, Findenai, she could have gone back to Northweden out of nervousness.

That’s because the current situation at Robern Academy was serious.

There are well over 100 students who have already submitted a letter of withdrawal. It has not yet been repaired, and professors are persuading through personal interviews, but there are limits to this as well.

In addition to that, even the pressure from the outside seems to have eventually reached the parents.

The dean was stressed enough to see his hair falling out every morning when he checked his pillow.

“Wait calmly. After all, the owner doesn’t come running just because you are urging him.”

“ha.”

For some reason, she was fed up with the revealing maid, who spoke casually or squeaks.

Keren, who had her arms folded next to her, spat out a word with a confused feeling.

“… … Maybe there was an accident somewhere along the way.”

“accident?”

“Yes, because it is too late anyway.”

exactly.

Since Deus didn’t look like he was going to run away all of a sudden, it seemed more appropriate to think that way.

At that time, Finden Ai, who was eating refreshments in the dean’s office, licked the powder on her finger and said in a hum.

“It’s a real big deal when the demons start expanding their range.”

When the dean and Karen look at each other out of the blue, Finden Eye smiles mischievously.

“There’s a guy with a twisted body on the right stairwell on the third floor. I came down to the second floor yesterday.”

“Ha, why do you say that?”

“yes? It’s fun. I want you to know.”

“What.”

The dean was annoyed at Finden Ai as if to vent his anger. Then, Finden-Ai shrugs and takes a cigarette out of his pocket and bites it.

“Do you have any matches?”

“This is no smoking!”

I couldn’t stand it any longer, so the dean shouted harshly and tried to expel him immediately, but Keren stopped him.

“Wait.”

Keren frowned as she glared at Finden Eye with her eyes slightly open.

“Your finger positions are reversed.”

“Well?”

Finden-Ai looked at her hand holding a cigarette, asking what she was talking about.

Then really.

“uh?”

The arrangement of the fingers was reversed. A strange figure with the thumb stuck where the ring finger should be.

Looking at it blindly, Finden Ai gets annoyed with regret.

“Fuck, this is what it took.”

Squeak.

Finden Eye disappeared as it was.

No, the evil spirit that pretended to be Finden Ai.

The moment he saw it, the dean opened his mouth and looked at Keren in a bewildered manner.

Keren tuts and clicks her tongue, standing where the demon used to be.

“I think it was a warning. Soon, they will occupy the entire academy.”

Keren understood the meaning of the words that the scope of the demons’ activities was widening.

The moment the dean was about to lower his gaze with a sigh.

“Me, over there.”

My hands trembled and I felt my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth.

“Professor Karen? The feet are reversed.”

“Yes?”

Karen lowered her head, her heels sticking out. Bizarrely broken feet.

Seeing this, Karen gave a wry smile.

“I got caught because of him.”

Karen disappeared.

Seeing this, the dean frothed and collapsed on the desk.

* * *

Then, where are the real Finden Eye and Karen?

“Sniff, where do you think someone is pretending to be me?”

Findenai leans against the roof railing and sniffs, then puts a cigarette in her mouth.

It was the only place in the academy where smoking was allowed, so he often patronized it.

Beside her, Karen, likewise, rested her chin on the railing, staring blankly out.

The two didn’t know each other for a long time, and they weren’t close, but they naturally met on the rooftop, because they were waiting for the same person.

After lighting a cigarette with a lighter and lighting it up, Keren sneaks a glance and sees Finden Eye.

With a shrug of his shoulders, Finden-Ai offered to write a box, but Keren refused.

“Are you really going to come?”

“You should come. I’m not coming, but if you sent me here, you’ll have to search.”

Finden Ai smiles while exhaling smoke.

Even so, the eyes of the two women naturally reached the entrance leading out of the academy.

It felt like he would arrive at some point if I opened my eyes even for a moment.

rattle.

At that time, Erica Bright and Gideon Geronia came up to the roof after opening the door.

Gideon gets annoyed, running his hand through his red hair that stings his eyes.

“Professor Keren, there are a lot of students I need to consult with, so what are you doing here?”

“Eh, I’m going to take a break for a while.”

Karen, stretching and stretching herself, passed Gideon and went down the stairs.

“They are having a hard time.”

Looking at it, Pindenai mumbles with a cigarette in his mouth.

Perhaps he didn’t like that, Gideon glared at Findeneye and then approached her.

“You said you were Deius’ exclusive maid, right? What is your name?”

“Finden child.”

“You are short.”

Although Gideon was very offended by the fact that he was openly ignoring himself as a member of the Geronia family despite being a maid.

“so what. If you have nothing to say, go away.”

It was Finden Ai, who was still smoking cigarettes while leaning against the railing.

“Let’s go.”

Erica, who already knew Finden Child’s strong personality, tried to stop Gideon, but he was such a disrespectful character that he couldn’t live without it.

“I keep hearing what you say lately. I mean, don’t mess around at the academy.”

“Whoa.”

What the hell are you going to do?

I’d rather be relieved if I thought that even a dog was barking, but this guy didn’t even seem to go back until he heard an answer.

“Do you believe in Deus? Let’s see how far that can go.”

Finden-Ei, emitting fumes and smoke, still had her eyes out of the academy.

Gideon clenched his fists and raised his voice, as if the fact that he was being treated like someone who didn’t belong at all stimulated his heart.

“yes! Give your master a word! Erica and I are getting married, so please make sure to attend as guests to brighten up the event!”

Then, Erica suddenly screamed in surprise.

“What do you mean! I never agreed!”

Are you two fighting?

Thinking that it was a little fun now, Finden Ai started to look at the two of them.

Erica glared at Gideon with resentful eyes, but Gideon firmly declared that it was already over.

“I already sent a letter to the Bright family. Breaking up marriage harms a woman, but if I accept it, the Bright family will probably welcome it with open arms.”

“you!”

Erica, who had been grabbed by the collar, widened her eyes in resentment. Before I knew it, the corners of my eyes were slightly moist.

“It’s a strategic engagement after all. Even Bright would think that Geronia, who maintains a close relationship with the royal family, would be much more profitable than someone like Verdi on the outskirts.”

Just like that.

Erica’s position in the family was merely a tool for an arranged marriage.

Having worked so hard to get out of it, I landed a professorship at Roberyn.

In the end, Erika bit her lip at the reality that her efforts had been in vain.

What and where did it go wrong?

My head starts to overheat.

“Erika Bright!”

At some point, without even realizing it, mana was raging at the fingertips. Even if Gideon calls her urgently and tries to stop her.

“Huh, ugh.”

The moment Erica’s tears fell and the golden magic was about to shoot out.

[what are you doing?]

Things changed so suddenly.

A dark-haired girl perched on a rooftop railing. At the same time as her appearance, the entire academy begins to be dyed in darkness.

As if the sun had gone down.

A light that quietly fades away.

Like a dove caught in a children’s basket trap.

The darkness surrounding Lovern and the screams of evil spirits heard at the same time.

[It’s really fun from now on, can I relax like that?]

Whoo!

It was Finden Ai who immediately kicked at the girl, but the girl was no longer there.

[hehehehe! That person is coming back?]

Before I knew it, the girl standing behind Finden-I was laughing so hard, covering her mouth with both hands.

[I hope you come soon!]

“Little bastard!”

Quaang!

It was Finden Ai who twisted her body and extended her low kick, but this time she only smashed the roof railing and the girl was no longer there.

[by the way.]

In an instant, the girl standing in front of the roof door shook her shoulders and was delighted.

She asked with a smile as if the situation ahead was unbearably enjoyable.

[What will change if that person comes?]
