I Became The Academy Necromancer

97. sun for saints

Burning white flames rush towards Stella.

Divine power has a fatal effect on demons. It would be the same for Stella now, who has been fused with the devil.

The carriage had already stopped a long time ago.

The nuns shed tears and knelt in prayer in front of the white flame.

Finden Eye and the Dark Spirit were just staring blankly at it.

“Oh, is that why you told me to run?”

Finding out that everything is over now, taking a breather, glances at me.

The Dark Spirit also nodded and clapped his hands saying it was great.

[I didn’t know that the souls would use the grace they received from the saintess.]

“I didn’t use it.”

Apparently, the Dark Spirit was also a necromancer, so the tendency to think of the soul as an expendable item remains in the tone, correcting it.

“I gave them a chance.”

I look up at the burning Stella without any screams or struggles.

“The things she built up eventually proved their worth.”

All Stella wanted was death.

So I gave it to her out of respect.

It was because I wanted to grant her wish, which gave me time to put down my burdens and gave me deep-seated comfort and encouragement.

I granted her wish.

The favor has been repaid.

Now was the time to move according to my will.

“Stella, now I will deny your wish.”

Stella won’t be able to hear my voice, but I declared as if I was centering.

Because I am afraid of rest after death.

Do you wish for complete annihilation because you are afraid of demons waiting for your own death?

Unfortunately, that’s not a happy ending.

It was only the lesser evil that avoided the worst.

“A false happy ending.”

It was she who wanted it, and I respected it.

I was thinking of twisting it clearly as much as the final end.

roll up your hands

As he forcibly squeezed out the depleted mana, the chain that bound the higher level demon wrapped around his right hand.

The upper level demon has already completely disappeared from the battle with Stella.

[Muh, what are you going to do?]

The Dark Mage is startled when he sees me trying to move again. I made a tee out that I didn’t want to do anything anymore.

“Save Stella.”

[I-I already got it! All she wanted was annihilation! So isn’t it over now? You granted my wish!]

“No, that is the lesser evil.”

Stella’s death is inevitable.

If she doesn’t die in the first place, the discomfort and pain of the body will only continue to strangle her.

I had no intention of holding her by force in this life anymore.

But after death.

As a necromancer, there was definitely something I could do.

Wear the chain you made around your waist. Because it was made of mana, it did not feel tight or heavy.

I handed the end to Finden Eye.

“Pull when I give you a signal.”

“You want to go in there?”

Finden-Eye pointed at the huge white flame with his finger, saying he was dumbfounded. I nodded without hesitation and took a deep breath.

It’s not a real flame anyway, it’s just the embodiment of divine power.

Of course, if I jumped into it with my bare body, I would take quite a lot of damage.

Still, I had to go.

“It’s crazy.”

Laughing, Findenai strongly snatched the chain and answered firmly.

“5 minutes. I will definitely pull it right before it falls behind. Do everything you can in it.”

“Suffice.”

As I took a deep breath and tried to go inside, the mana film thinly wrapped around my skin.

The abbess looked at me and shed tears and knelt down with her forehead on the ground.

“You are still fighting for the saintess, right?”

“… … .”

“Because I can only do this much. I’m really sorry.”

The other nuns likewise cast a spell on me and ask me to do so while banging their foreheads on the ground.

“yes.”

It was an unexpected help, but I’m sure I can endure it a little longer.

Carrying the nuns’ wishes, I jumped into the woman burning in the white flame.

“Big!”

The heat that numbs the senses of the whole body oppresses and enters. I didn’t get burned, but I could definitely feel that my body was rejecting it.

Anything too pure is poison to man.

Divine power was just such a category.

I shut my mouth and close my eyes to try to block the heat from rushing into my body.

He reaches out and starts climbing on her burning spider legs.

It was obvious that she was there anyway. There were times when I tripped my leg or my hand brushed the air in the middle, but anyway.

I approached Stella without stopping.

The great devil’s left hand was completely burned and disappeared, and the remaining right hand was holding the rosary of the goddess Hertia, which he always had.

“thanks.”

She bids her final farewell with her eyes closed calmly.

“sorry.”

I couldn’t hear my voice, but a word of apology flowed out of my tongue nonetheless.

“Because I am a necromancer.”

In fact, I also wanted her to live a living life. I wondered if it would be possible if I used Professor Per Petra’s body.

Stella turned it down.

And on that part, I was sure.

That Stella isn’t living, she’s dying.

That there is no more regret in this life.

“You can only interfere after death.”

watch her dying

The sparks of divine power did not simply stop at the skin, but also surged through the intestines.

If it hadn’t been for the support of the nuns, I could have lost my mind here already.

The divine power, which was thought to be insignificant in itself, was gathered in a vast amount, so it was impossible to ignore it.

“Bye.”

And Stella’s last will that comes through the gap.

It was over.

Stella died like that, and her soul, which lost her body, immediately began to dissipate due to divine power.

I snatch her soul in a snap.

“If you want to call the lesser evil that avoids the worst a happy ending.”

Stella opened her eyes in surprise and looked at me. Her original eyes, not the devil’s eyes, were truly beautiful.

“I will not let you go.”

Having become a spirit, Stella, now seeing, looks at me with a shocked expression.

Like why am I here

I wanted to give her a soft smile, but I couldn’t help but twist because of the pain.

[Hey, let go of this! I, I will perish just like this!]

“No, I can’t let it go like that. Disappearing like this is definitely not a happy ending for you.”

[I, I! I want it! Forget everything and completely disappear!]

“sorry but.”

charrr

Another thin chain appears from my fingertips. It had to be short because of the lack of mana, but it was enough to become a thread connecting each other’s wrists.

“You are already dead.”

And the necromancer is the one who handles the dead.

“It belongs to me as a necromancer.”

[…] … !]

I pulled my hand as it is and because of the chain attached to her wrist, she came into my arms.

I put my other hand firmly on her back and shouted to the sky.

“Finden Eye!”

charrr!

The chain on the waist that was pulled as if waiting. In case I missed Stella, I held her tightly in my arms and gave her strength.

Stella and I got out of the flame of divine power in an instant and rolled on the floor.

thud! thud!

“Did you pull too hard?”

The heat of fear that I felt inside disappeared and my body felt cold. But there was no time to enjoy the afterglow.

It was successful in retrieving her soul from her corpse, but the sparks of divine power were still left in her spiritual body.

He urgently takes out the Remegeton to stabilize her spirit.

Although it turned semi-transparent, Stella’s soul clearly did not dissipate.

Understanding the situation, she stared blankly at me with her mouth wide open.

I thought that Stella, who always had a relaxed smile, was able to make that kind of expression.

[All, all, all, you!]

Stella, who stutters in embarrassment, is in a hurry, so she gets up and runs at me.

[What is this! The end that Velika and I made! You ruin it like this!]

“That wasn’t right.”

[It can’t go on like this! soon… … !]

aaagh!

Crackle! Crackle!

In the dawn sky, the screams of demons begin to spread like birds waking up early to find bugs. A terrifyingly long tear of a demon’s sneer.

The demons who watched Stella’s death were approaching like grim reapers to take her soul.

In that situation, I answered while staring at Stella.

“You had those eyes.”

Usually, there are cases where the scars remain in the soul after death.

In fact, it was a kind of fantasy. materialization of trauma. That’s why the spirits were able to roam around well even when their bodies were distorted or strange.

In any case, Stella’s body was in pristine condition.

It was another example of how strong her mental powers were.

[Yes Yes?]

Embarrassed, Stella puts both hands to her eyes in a hurry. Then, I am surprised to see that my left hand is properly attached.

“These eyes are more suitable than I imagined.”

[Oh no! It’s not the time to say things like that!]

Stella, whose face had turned red from embarrassment, hurriedly turned her gaze to the sky.

Demons rushing in like flocks of crows.

I answered as I held her in my arms.

“It’s okay, I won’t send you anywhere.”

Soul and soul are connected.

Although I was a necromancer, I did not possess a soul. I was thinking of making an exception this time.

Stella’s soul becomes mine.

[ah.]

It is also a state of strong connection that can never be separated through the medium of Remegeton.

I took a deep breath and answered.

“Now, as long as I am alive, there is no way the demons will take your soul.”

It is also connected to Remegeton, the legacy of the great devil. It was virtually impossible to take Stella without killing me and destroying it.

[still! But you are dangerous!]

“I will not die.”

He slowly looks up at the sky and makes promises without guarantees. But I was truly confident.

I had no intention of handing my neck and her over to the devil.

The demons could have been disappointed right away and rushed at me. Or, waiting for my death can also be considered as another form of entertainment.

But no matter what you do, you’ll have to break through the beings that spread across the sky before the demons do.

“I got the soul of a saintess, so I should take advantage of that.”

White fireworks light up the dark night sky again.

The souls that still remain become sparks of divine power, embroidering the sky and forming constellations.

[ah.]

Looking up at those who are burning their souls to protect themselves, Stella’s tears welled up in tears.

“I know it was difficult.”

I gently hug her and look up at the sky together.

The demons, who were trying to take Stella’s soul, fight back when they see the flames of divine power burning them.

Of course, those who were prepared for extinction could not back down.

Tormenting with the soul of a saint is entertainment, but there was no devil with a sense of duty to the point of risking his life after getting hurt.

As the sparks of divine power rushed at them, prepared for extinction, they just ran away without responding, kicking their tongues.

[Ahhh.]

Stella looks up at the sky with tears in her eyes. The sun hadn’t risen yet, but as if she had become their sun.

To drive away the nightmarish darkness that plagued Stella every night.

He became the sun for the saintess.
