I Became The Academy Necromancer

65. Ghost of Griffin

“Did you come to rescue your brothers?”

To the question of the Archmage Rock Pelican, Darius was at a loss as to what answer to give.

Should I keep my convictions, or should I spew excuses mixed with lies?

To be honest, my mind was focused on the latter, but my mouth was not.

“Yes.”

A situation where he admitted to commit treason. Even after talking, Darius blamed his stupidity, but Rock Pelican laughed and was satisfied.

“I like the confidence itself, it resembles your father Damos, the giant of the north.”

Squeak.

The Rockpelican lowered his wand, and Darius snorted and barely fell off the wall.

Outside the fence, the three musketeers were asking if they were okay, but they were unable to answer.

“Are they the companions you came with? nice I’ll let you in at once.”

“Yes?”

Darius couldn’t understand this situation, but Darius quietly fixed the rope at Rockpelican’s chin to do something.

The three musketeers quickly climbed over the fence and came in.

“Ugh?!”

“what?”

“Did you sell us out?!”

The embarrassed three musketeers immediately tried to argue with Darius, but they only opened their mouths like crucian carp, but no other answer came back.

Because the Archmage’s magic blocked all their sounds. The appearance of them screaming in reverse in a sudden situation seemed like a kind of play.

Rock Pelican responded with a beckoning hand to them who had become silent.

“Follow me, I will send them to you two.”

King Orpheus was still sitting in his secret royal chambers, flipping through his journal.

His gloomy heart swayed and swayed violently like a candle in a candlestick placed next to him.

His bloodshot eyes, along with dark marks from the tears he shed several times while reading the journal containing the story from the roots of the Griffin family, represented his tiredness.

With each page turned, my heart trembled, and a feeling of guilt and disgust flooded me with nausea.

As a strong critic of the inhumane acts taking place in the Republic of Clark.

In the end, it was embarrassing that the poop-stained dog was only barking the same way.

It was shocking that they suppressed the same warlocks the most violently because they did not want it to be known that they were a country founded by warlocks.

Truly abysmal.

Even if you think it’s the worst, after a few more chapters, more demonic ideas will pop out quickly.

Even so, one thing I felt strongly was my obsession with the position of royalty.

Is it because he was a black magician who was treated with contempt and contempt?

Or did he have ambition and stubbornness for power in his bloodline from birth?

A kind of oblivion that remains even as the years pass and the author changes. The feeling of devoting everything to protecting the name of the royal family was strong.

like.

‘Like a mother.’

The more I read, the more Orpheus reminds me of my mother who was too obsessed with being a royalty.

I was able to avoid being swayed by Rock Pelican’s education, but in the case of my sister, Eleanor, I was terribly tormented by my mother, Hiran.

That’s why Orpheus and Eleanor, even though they were royalty, were very repulsive to the formal act.

“Whoa.”

My eyes sting from fatigue. King Orpheus was slowly returning to his original self despite the guilt that was weighing him down.

It was confusing, disgusting, and disgusting to the point of anger.

“Responsibility cannot be avoided.”

Yes, in the end, all these responsibilities are an unavoidable task for the current royal family.

“I’m sorry, Deus.”

Singing low, he apologizes to Deius, whom he imprisoned.

Even though he knew all these truths, he kept his mouth shut until he asked.

Even though he was holding a punishment that could destroy the Griffin Kingdom, he did not let go of it.

At the time, I thought I had to protect the royal family first, so I arrested him to crack down on his mouth.

The more I thought about it, the more he was truly a man worthy of the word loyalist.

Orpheus got up slowly.

Even though it was late in the morning, I was thinking of ordering to go and release Deius’ restraints even now.

bang!

The door suddenly slammed shut.

Even though there is no place for the wind to blow, the candle is swept away as if bitten by the scruff of the neck.

“Well?”

The moment I condensed mana in my hand and shined a light, wondering what the situation was.

[A fool.]

A black face cast in the light.

Surprised, King Orpheus couldn’t even scream and backed away.

The black face follows Orpheus as it is.

The lightly raised horn on his forehead looked like a demon that hadn’t fully grown, and the protruding teeth and fog-like body added to the ominous feeling.

[No matter how long my dynasty has built up. You guys are trying to destroy it in just one day.]

“Yes, what are you!”

I hurriedly waved my hand, but it went through it and there was no resistance.

A black face with a demon-like shape opens its mouth. Contrary to the large mouth, the low whispering voice felt as if dozens of insects were entering the ear canal.

[The owner of this land.]

“… … What?”

The tone of the bleak voice conveying the secret changes. A high-spirited yet nervous woman.

As well as.

The black face gradually began to take shape, and it was a familiar face even to Orpheus.

“mother?”

The black face with the face of Hiran Luden Griffin replied with a giggle.

[I am your mother.]

Another face this time.

His idol, who was dignified with thick wrinkles.

[I am your father.]

A face that changes again.

This time, it was a presence that was located in a place that was quite deep in my memory.

[It is your great ancestor.]

Next, it returned to its original black face. It was declared so natural.

[It is Griffin itself, which has continued hundreds of histories.]

“you… … !”

A journal that is hundreds of years old, as if it were written by one person.

An obsession with the maddened royal family.

King Orpheus was able to notice right away.

This being is the cause of everything.

That he is the ancestor of the griffin with demonic ideas.

[Also.]

blah blah

A huge mouth opens.

Hideous teeth and a thick, indulging tongue sway and reach out to Orpheus.

[It is you now.]

“… … !”

I couldn’t resist.

Orpheus was eaten by it, and he struggled a few times as if he had a seizure, but soon after, black smoke billowed from his body and he regained his composure.

Then he jumped up, clattered his neck, grinned, and said a word.

“Where did the ghost come from?”

[…] … !]

And I was watching all of this. Uniquely, the master talked to the dark mage who followed the disciple’s order.

“The royal palace is not a place where evil spirits like worms like you come and go.”

When Orpheus stretched out his hand, intense mana speculated and tried to strangle the Dark Mage.

[Bur, a bug?!]

The Dark Spirit, thanks to Deius’ help and being able to handle his own mana, managed to defend himself and then ran away through the wall.

“Tsk.”

The resistance was stronger than expected, but it didn’t matter.

He was an asshole anyway.

Even if it goes back to the owner anyway, the result will be the same.

Quaang!

“Whoa!”

Orpheus opened the door and came out and took a deep breath. No matter how many times I tried it, this feeling of being alive felt good.

Orpheus strides to the left of the corridor and comes out to the garden outside the palace.

The soldiers on alert who saw him immediately saluted.

“Tell the captain of the guard, the chief of magic judge, and the archmage to enter the palace right away.”

Orpheus said with a grin.

“Execute the execution of criminals who insulted the royal family.”

* * *

“Wow, I thought I was dying from the cold.”

Deia, who was shivering from the cold, likes to make a fuss saying that her clothes have finally arrived.

I handed over my jacket, but it looked cold because I was wearing pajamas.

“Turn your eyes.”

The three musketeers at the scrap metal shop stare intently at Deia, who is trying to change her clothes, and when she warns her right away, she bows her head.

Where are you blinding your eyes?

“Put.”

Seeing me like that, Deia smiles slightly, as if she feels good, and heads to the corner of the prison.

“Can you still see it? Cover me.”

Deia, who hides behind me while pulling me, takes off her pajamas. It was a very sudden situation, but first of all, I look at the archmage, Darius, and the three musketeers at the scrap metal dealer who came to me with my shoulders stretched as much as possible to cover my sister’s naked body.

“I told you that I would definitely think about it.”

It’s not in my plan to make a fuss and break out of prison alone when King Orpheus hasn’t even answered yet.

When I said it with a frown, the Rock Pelican also averted my eyes for no reason and avoided answering.

Even in the case of Darius, I’m grateful that he came to rescue me and Deia, but I’m just noticing that the situation is going strangely.

I was about to say something, but Deia’s bare legs stick out from the side. I stand on one foot to see if I’m wearing pants and lean my back against me.

“Know shame.”

A word that was meant to go to Darius and the Rock Pelican made a U-turn to Deia.

“Well? It’s not something you would say.”

“… … .”

“Live together with two men who are not like brothers. Everything will be the same.”

If you say that again, your mouth will be shut. Because only Deia knows that I am not the real Deus.

I’ll have to tell Darius later, but not now.

Anyway, Deia, fully clothed, pops out. Seeing that even the magic power gun was hung on his belt, it must have been true that he risked his life when he really entered the Gray Pond.

I tried to tell him to return everything and wait again.

[Keuk, kuk, big trouble!]

The Dark Spirit, who penetrated the wall, shouts while making a fuss. She was entrusted with the watch of King Orpheus.

Seeing this coming out, did the king decide something?

However, the answer that came back was beyond my imagination.

The evil spirit that was hiding deep in the Griffin Kingdom and that it took over the bodies of successive kings.

And now, to the taking of Orpheus’ body.

It was embarrassing, it was absurd.

‘This kind of back story was hidden?’

There was nothing like this in the retry game. However, upon thinking about it a little, it seemed that unknown was a more accurate expression.

‘It’s not like there was a warlock in the party.’

Since the saintess is a role that joins the party for a short time, she was not a party member when she was active in Gray Pond.

“Oh, then did we do it in vain?”

The other party members who couldn’t hear the voice of the Dark Spirit were looking at me with strange expressions.

Darius looked embarrassed and asked if he had to go back, and Rock Pelican was still awkwardly averting his gaze.

“no.”

I put on the jacket Deia gave me and stepped out of the cage.

“Things have changed.”

Heavy footsteps rushing in from outside.

Knights in red armor enter the prison in a row.

They were taken aback when they saw the Rock Pelican on this side.

Soon after, a woman stepped forward, with the momentum to control all confusion.

Even though he was the shortest among the armored knights and had a small stature.

A woman who stands at the top of the Royal Guard Knights, who are directly subordinate to the royal family.

Guards Commander Gloria Grace.

The kingdom’s sharpest sword that competes on an equal footing with the sorcerer’s judge Tairin All Velocus.

With her flowing red hair, she glared at me with sharp eyes and asked.

“The criminal who insulted the royal family, the ugly black magician, Deius Verdi. His Majesty has ordered the immediate execution of the criminal by the Royal Knights.”

“… … It’s very convenient.”

Gloria’s eyes twitch slightly as she answers honestly and sarcasticly.

“If you are called a warlock, there is no trial, and you cannot even expect a fair judgment.”

How is this different from the old medieval witch trial?

“Well, it doesn’t matter at all.”

yeah, it didn’t matter at all.

“If it comes out as unreasonable, I too will only answer with unreasonable force.”

My steps did not stop, and Deia and Darius followed and prepared for battle.

He quickly figured out that if he didn’t fight anyway, everyone would die.

“Do you think you can run away?”

Gloria said that she was dumbfounded and drew her sword. Then, the knights of the royal guard also draw out their swords at the same time as if they had matched the military dance.

It didn’t seem easy to wield a sword like that in a narrow passage.

To the extent that such things were not even a problem, they were competent knights.

But the words needed to be corrected.

“I am not running away.”

Suddenly, the Remegeton brought by the Dark Spirit shows off a subtle black light in the palm of my hand.

The skill of a magician who has a card in his hand in the blink of an eye.

It felt like the cries of demons were echoing here and there.

“Are you not running away?”

Perhaps taking it as an insult, Gloria bit her teeth and took a posture holding her sword with both hands.

“I just.”

That, too, corrects.

“I’m just going to have an audience with His Majesty.”
