I Became The Academy Necromancer

43. Distorted Happy Ending

“ah.”

Suddenly, Aria spits out a word. There was a lot of emotion in that short but intense lamentation voice.

“Haven’t most souls gone into rest?”

Knowing that she was caught already, Aria bit her lip and asked, and I calmly nodded.

“yes.”

I needed to shorten my answer.

Now I was questioning her, and there were also accusations.

I needed to gauge how much Aria, who had already entered the second round, knew about me.

“It was unnoticed by people, but it was discovered by the dead.”

Arya’s mistake for not recognizing that they were watching her because she couldn’t see them.

“When you think about it, it makes sense. I must have been too excited to see the professor.”

Being honest, Aria smiles as she admits that she was foolish. I go up to her and raise blue mana in my hand and swipe it once.

[Kyaaa!]

[Deius eugh!]

“They talk a lot.”

The evil spirits run away to the main building of the academy as it is at my beckoning. I kicked him out because his ears hurt and it was difficult to continue the conversation.

“Huh, the professor is always the same.”

“… … .”

Arya looks up at me with her eyes wide open as if in ecstasy. The gaze was burdensome, but I endured it and asked.

“Why did you reawaken the spirits of the academy? Did you use the ghost stone?”

“Wow! Did you already know about the Spirit Stone? In fact, the correct name is Lemegeton.”

Aria took out a small black jewel from her bosom.

A unique item Remegeton that I have seen several times in the game.

It was one of the forbidden items that made the kingdom of Griffin tremble with black magic.

“Higher people would be afraid of it, but it wasn’t such a scary thing from the beginning. It is a stone given to a child who summoned the devil to see his dead mother.”

Aria grabs my wrist while smiling hehehehe. It was so fast that I couldn’t even react.

“Here you go.”

And Arya carefully placed the object on my palm.

“Originally, I was only looking at when I could give it to you, but if you already noticed it, I would be able to give it to you without hesitation.”

“You mean you’re giving this to me?”

“Yes, if you use Remegeton, you will be many times stronger than you are now.”

“… … .”

Since it was heavy, the energy felt in the palm of my hand was unusual.

It wasn’t the ability level increase effect or additional effect that was simply seen in the game.

There was a strange aura that could only be known by feeling.

“There are so many other things I want to give you, but I’ll get them later! There are many things that will surprise you when you see it.”

Looking at Aria who is laughing and enjoying herself, I frown and ask.

“Don’t tell the story. Why did you terrorize the academy?”

“Oh, yes! That’s the same reason I gave you Remegeton. I want you to become much stronger than you are now.”

“… … .”

The life in the girl’s black eyes gradually begins to fade. Just as a machine that has lost its owner continues to execute only the actions that have already been entered.

There was a kind of madness in her eyes and in her pouring words.

“Did you deliver the basic command magic book I saved? Actually, it was pretty hard to find.”

“… … .”

“Because I secretly stole it from a great necromancer’s house and gave it to the professor.”

no wonder.

No matter how secretly he was a backdoor trader who sold various things, he thought he had books related to necromancer with good timing.

‘That was Arya’s intention.’

He was a little surprised, but his expression did not change. Arya continued talking.

“Since the demons are in the academy, I thought they would find books related to necromantics, so I prepared them in advance. And I use magic directly against those evil spirits in real combat!”

match!

As they clap their hands, Arya shrugs, saying that it feels good.

“A harmony between theory and practice! Even the professor knows. Because of this academy incident, the professor’s necromantic skills have become very strong.”

“… … .”

“Of course, many people seem to be known as a necromancer, but don’t worry about that. I have another way.”

“… … .”

“So it’s okay. Professor, if you continue to be strong enough to protect yourself… … !”

“Guilt.”

I cut off Aria’s words that seemed to last forever. I put the first question in my mouth again.

“Do you feel any guilt?”

Even if no one was physically hurt, there are a bunch of people who have suffered psychological damage and trauma.

In addition to that, it seems that even the resting souls were forcibly awakened and turned into evil spirits.

No matter how you look at it, it was closer to evil than good.

“Yes?”

Saying that she received an unexpected question again, Aria looked at me dumbfounded. Then he speaks to me in a cold voice.

“Professor, everyone’s life is the most precious thing, right? Since you’re a professor, you know best, right?”

I looked down at Arya without bothering to answer. I looked straight at Aria’s eyes, which had already lost focus and left only turbidity.

“So don’t think about anything else.”

Aria stretched out her hand like a shotgun. She grabbed both of my wrists with both hands, and her strength was considerable, so it was not a level that I could recklessly shake off.

If you fight now, you will lose a hundred battles.

The protagonist of the second episode, who had seen the end of the world once, was more overwhelming than I thought.

“Professor, all you have to do is think of the professor. No matter what happens, you must survive, persevere, and stay by my side.”

As if telling her not to go anywhere, her wrists are squeezed by her tightly gripped hands.

But I looked down at her calmly and asked.

“I know very well how you feel about me in the other life.”

“what? You already know that it’s the 2nd round, right? Professor too! Actually, I thought convincing that part would be the hardest part.”

“Seeing you say this, it must mean that I died in the previous episode.”

“… … I don’t want to recall. Professor, please don’t tell me.”

Arya’s expression darkened noticeably, but I didn’t care at all and asked.

“Then I have a question for you.”

“Yes, say anything. I will tell you anything I can answer.”

then without hesitation.

“What did I say right before I died?”

“… … .”

This is a personal curiosity, and I needed to know what conclusions I came to in the first episode from countless experiences.

If it were me, there was a possibility that Arya would go to the second playthrough, so I would have prepared a will that would be helpful for me in the second playthrough.

“Actually, I didn’t even hear all of the will. The situation was so urgent.”

“Even short is fine.”

“Professor… … .”

Aria, whose eyes tremble as if she doesn’t want to recall the situation at the time, takes a deep breath and opens her heavy mouth.

“… … The professor said, ‘If you have another, then.’”

If you have next, then what?

“I couldn’t hear what you said behind the scenes because it was an urgent situation… … The professor might have expected the second round!”

“yes.”

Of course.

I’m glad to know that this is the 2nd playthrough.

It seemed like he knew roughly what I wanted to say in the first episode.

Aria, the main character, should lead the world with excellent leadership, spitting out the wonderful words of friendship and love.

with her current condition.

Considering that it was natural to me in the second playthrough, and it was the only will I could leave behind.

That’s not an aria, it’s for me.

so that.

“Aria, if you have next. then.”

I give an easy guess at the answer I would have given.

“Don’t look for me.”

Maybe it wasn’t like this?

“Yes?”

Arya’s eyes trembled again. Embarrassed, she lets go of my wrist, which she was holding tightly, and steps back.

“What do you mean, professor? No matter what, you’re kidding too much.”

I was the one who spat out the will.

With the same voice and the same person speaking, Arya seemed to be in for a bit of a shock.

“It’s just a guess. If it were me, I think I wouldn’t have kept you from approaching me in the second round.”

“Well, what do you mean by that! It can’t be! Professor! There’s no way my professor is trying to get away from me!”

“… … .”

“Hey, don’t say anything strange. I really wanted to meet the professor. I only knew after sacrificing to the end for my sake.”

Aria approaches me with outstretched hands. She tried to hug me with tears in her eyes.

“The professor was my world. So that means… … .”

Took.

My hand pushes her away.

“Aria rias.”

A girl who was pure, innocent, beautiful and loving.

“You are broken.”

She, the main character who has to save this world, is terribly broken.

And it was because of the terribly dizzy and complicated emotions mixed in the name of affection.

“Oh, is it broken? me? No! This, this is love!”

“… … .”

“Professor, you will find out soon! If you spend time with me… … !”

“stop.”

I press my eyes tightly with my hand. My head hurts from sudden fatigue.

“Don’t look ugly anymore.”

“ah… … .”

Aria bit her lips as if shocked and crumpled the skirt of her school uniform with both hands.

‘Perhaps after I died, Arya was ruined by the sense of loss.’

No matter how much I was aware of Aria’s condition, there was no way I would have stood by.

‘Right now, the ending strategy is on hold.’

The important thing now is to return Arya to her original orientation.

In order to see the perfect happy ending of this game, it is impossible with the current aria.

There is absolutely no reason why this was the second round.

‘If it doesn’t come like this.’

Even if it’s the 2nd episode, there will be no happy ending that will come to everyone.
