I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy

Chapter 32-1: - Attack of the Necromancer (4)

Where did you get that from?

Crackle!

The Skeleton General in my hand violently shook its spine and bared its teeth. However, with not a single limb left, its resistance was futile.

I have another knack for making beef bone soup.

"... Youre amazing anyway."

I didn't want to say that I sat and waited at the place where the Skeleton General was to be summoned, so I covered it roughly, and luckily, they didn't ask further.

For now, lets get out of here quickly. If the necromancer disregards the Skeleton General and starts controlling the skeletons directly, it will be a headache again.

Boys and girls, each carrying a wounded man, followed me.

Hey, junior.

My name is... Baek Yu-Seol

Do you have any plans?"

Yes.

If it was Mayuseong, he would have slaughtered the skeletons and even beaten the necromancer, but I couldn't do that.

I had to be... more efficient, and more strategic. In other words, I had to use the way of players.

I checked all the way, and the necromancers had already taken control of the base camp. It is virtually impossible to get out of this encirclement.

"Darn it."

There is only one way left.

"And that is......?"

Defeating his main body.

What, what?

Wait, are you crazy?!

Everyone was astonished at the method I proposed.

Even dealing with the skeleton was daunting, how the hell were we going to deal with the necromancer?

Didn't you learn it in school? Necromancer use the strongest ability in history called command, but their main body is vulnerable.

If they had mastered the art above a certain level, it would be a different story, but the enemy we were currently facing was estimated to be at most Class 5.

If these people joined forces, he was worth dealing with.

Mayuseong also defeated the necromancer being alone at the level of Class 4.

That is true. But... he must have arranged escort by his side?"

I guess so.

In fact, I knew exactly how many of those guards there were.

There were one Skeleton General, six elite skeletons, and 50 regular skeleton soldiers.

That number would grow more and more as time went on. The opportunity was only limited. Necromancer was at his weakest right now, as he hadnt grown in power yet.

However, I deliberately pretended not to know that fact.

The scope already occupied by the Necromancer is quite wide. In order to cover the entire area, even Necromancer cant invest a lot of troops in his escort.

...... You have a point, but there is no guarantee that we will be able to win, right?

We can win.

Even in this event, as long as I had safely captured one of the only three 'skeleton generals', and if all of those people joined forces, we would win safely as long as there were no new variables.

However, the problem was how to persuade them. Regardless of my surety, they would be jumping into an uncertain battlefield.

"That......."

Its possible.

The answer wasnt spoken by me, but it was Edna instead. She struggled to open her mouth while holding her grudge.

Even if he looks a bit less experienced, hes someone who knows a lot more in terms of combat and strategy than us. He probably has more experience than our seniors.

But Can such a freshman do that?

Of course I couldnt.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'No, what nonsense is she talking about?'

<em class="chakra-text css-0">What do you mean Im good at combat? Could you sound a bit more convincing? It seems like youre lying just because the situation is like this, and who will believe it?

But surprisingly, Hong Bi-Yeon agreed.

Indeed, I think it might work out. Honestly, I dont think well be able to break through this vast siege at all. The strategy to strike the heart... even a necromancer wouldn't expect it. I think it's okay.

She had the biggest say in this place

When Edna and Hong Bi-Yeon, the people with the most influence, affirmed, the rest of the people followed suit.

"Whoa... I don't know what you believe in, but there's no way for us to get out alone, so we might as well cooperate."

Haha, I liked fighting from the beginning.

Fuck!

You are noisy.

Ben calmly organized the situation while scolding Denmark.

Quickly brief the operation.

Pointing at the skeleton general, I said, It's said that it temporarily takes away the ability to control the skeleton, but when the necromancer notices the incongruity and starts looking for it, it's all the same that it becomes difficult in the end.

It should be.

I made eye contact with each and every person gathered here.

It was very burdensome for them to believe in me and participate in the battlefield, but there was one fact that I felt keenly from the experience of the frozen cliff.

If the enemy tries to kill you, you must respond with the determination to kill the enemy. No matter how fearful and strong he is, if you don't do that, you will never survive.

Bae-Hyuk was a Class 5 necromancer of the Dark Mage Tower and a dark mage belonging to the Dark Demon Union.

In fact, most necromancers couldn't live in the magic world, so becoming a dark magician was unavoidable. Even within the Dark Demon Union, the necromancers were not well respected.

Due to the nature of necromancers, who couldnt demonstrate their power properly unless they raise the dead to build their army, they had not been able to show much strength in modern times, where the custom of purifying all corpses had arisen.

Bae-Hyuk, as a necromancer, had lived facing contempt for his entire life without even owning a few skeletons of his own.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'I'm tired now. I can't live like this forever.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">If I don't want to be ignored, I have to get the power.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'Mana Vessel.'

It had been 7 years. The precious Mana Vessel he had collected for 7 years was still limited to summoning 700 skeletons because he hadn't mastered the territory properly, but if he gradually expanded the range, he would be able to summon more than a thousand skeletons.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">Besides, Im lucky to have met Stellas chicks.

Creating a high-potential Skeleton Mage was really difficult.

All of the students were handsome men and women, and if he converted us to undead while maintaining the original appearance, it would become a collection he could be proud of as a corpse collector.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'Catch those guys first! It doesn't matter if you kill them!'

Even in the magical world, if he could summon a legendary knight, 'Death Knight', a rare being who was proficient with swords, it would be a noteworthy achievement.

The most powerful being he could summon was only a skeleton general.

Even then, so far, only three had been summoned by him.

However....

<em class="chakra-text css-0">What? I suddenly lost my senses

Thanks to the Necromancer's ability to share the skeleton's sight, he was able to watch Stella's students collapse in real time.

But, that view was suddenly obscured. It was no longer possible to locate them, hear sounds, or observe their situation.

As if the antenna had been taken away.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'No way!'

So far, he had not exerted his power in direct control because he had been focusing on expanding the territory, but if someone had seized the skeleton general, the story would be different.

After temporarily stopping the expansion of his territory and spreading out his senses, the skeleton's sight returned.

Where are you! Where are you!"

If he could not see through the skeleton general, he would have to go through the manual work of examining the sights of 700 skeletons one by one. It was very cumbersome and took a long time.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">'Shit!

...!'
