Academy Genius Tamer Episode 162
Nigromancy zone, abbreviated NGC zone.
This is where the strongholds of the warlocks are located in Sulkademie.
its location?
Of course no one knows.
It would be nice to say that the NGC zone is located at a few latitudes and a few longitudes.
Where is the novel written like that?
What about the outskirts of the Ardel Empire?
An area untouched by people.
It is just described in this way.
It is the best and surest way to follow the original journey.
Therefore, after a long time, the entire group gathered in Natalie’s studio.
It was after hearing the general story from Adela.
“Shall we raid our stronghold?”
Seymour snorted like an idiot.
The owner of the workshop, Natalie, was the same as her face turned white.
“that… Can you really get into it that easily?”
“You’re going straight in… .”
Even Youn Ha-eul blurs the end of her words with surprised eyes.
“It’s cool too.”
huh?
“It’s rude.”
“You are noisy.”
“OMG… Ahhe… why… !”
Adela covered Youn Ha-eul’s mouth.
I spread out the map of the Ardel Empire on the desk.
The NGC area is not the official name of the Ardel Empire in the first place. So, no matter how much I search, I can’t find the answer… .
“I just liked Natalie’s question.”
“yes?”
“It’s not that easy to get into.”
As Natalie said, this is not a place for dogs or cows to enter.
In the first place, the general public is not even allowed to enter.
It can only be discovered with the unique magic of black magic, and can be entered.
In that sense, we must first find a way to use that magic.
After hearing my explanation, Lee Han asked a question.
“Magi? How are you going to use it?”
As soon as Lee Han finished speaking, Seymour gently raised her hand.
“Can I learn black magic? I am confident.”
“… ?”
“Aren’t you good too?”
just-.
Seymour was bullied by Lee Han.
I’m not an ant, that’s it.
I stick my tongue out and point to a corner of the map. Of course, there are ways to use that magic.
right here.
“Ego-.”
Former Arkenent Territory located in the northern part of Castka.
Solia opened her eyes and looked up at me.
“Maybe here… .”
“right. Former Arkenent Territory. I heard there’s enough obsidian for Magi here.”
tuk.
I held out a book that I had pulled out in advance from Ardel’s library.
It was a book containing a map of the entire Ardel Empire and a detailed description of the topography.
“A mine of obsidian. It must have been treated as a cursed land because of its eerie energy. It is said that it was demolished in the past, have you heard of it?”
Solia said, tilting her head as if she wasn’t sure.
“I don’t know for sure, but if it was the Arkenent Spirit… My father will know.”
With a magical obsidian, he can trick his eyes.
It’s been a long time since it was demolished, so it’s a problem to have to scour the Arkenent Spirit to find its traces, but it was worth the effort.
You don’t have to do the crazy thing to learn black magic yourself.
Solia spoke carefully.
“Shall I ask my father?”
“Let’s go find it ourselves.”
I don’t think it’s necessary to go all out. Two people will suffice.
The academy’s schedule with no breaks from class to training is a problem.
I looked back at Solia and smiled.
let’s see
A good time… .
Will it be class time?
After unfolding the timetable, he stabbed Solia in the side, who was standing blankly.
“yes?”
“Hey, when is it?”
* * *
Professor Uygor’s Magical Genetics.
Professor Ugor continued the class with a slow voice.
“Okay- yes. Today we will learn about the source of magic.”
“The ego—the source of magic—is that the student at the back? Do not sleep.”
If it wasn’t for Solia, I could have skipped the class altogether.
“me… You should get a scholarship.”
Due to the circumstances of the Arkenent family, the burden of paying the high tuition of Ardel Academy was heavy.
It is dangerous to openly drop out of a class because if the grades drop for nothing, the support of the nobles may be cut off.
His position should also be taken into account.
So I changed the way.
exit.
I decided to just attend and sneak out of the classroom.
Professor Ugor wiped his chin and said calmly.
“Ah, I forgot to attend.”
“yes-.”
“Okay, are all the students here? Let me call your name.”
Professor Ugor lifted his magnifying glasses slightly to see if his eyes were dim and held the attendance sheet in his hand.
“Natalie Willow.”
“Yes, Professor!”
“Hey-well… One hour.”
“Yeah, here it is.”
Every time I called for attendance one by one, Solia looked at me.
“You won’t notice?”
I knew he was a model student just by looking at what he was doing.
Have you not even gone out?
“Is this your first time?”
“Student… How can I get out of class… .”
sup.
Is that statement just very poignant?
“There was a time when I went out of the liberal arts for the whole semester.”
Oh right.
They’re sixteen years old.
“Hey, I’ve been falling for it since I was that age, so I can’t do that.”
“… ?”
“I was a model student back then. This is the privilege of an adult.”
“yes?”
With that said, Professor Ugor, who was calling for attendance, took turns looking at the back of the classroom.
For a smoother departure, I purposely took a seat in the back seat, right next to the door.
Solia continued to worry, so she added more words.
“Hey, no big lectures.”
“I’m nervous… .”
“Are you okay? If it’s wrinkled like that, it’s even worse, so I’d rather go out boldly.”
“ha… scared… .”
Solia lowered her voice and mumbled in embarrassment.
Just then, Professor Hugor called Solia.
“Solia Arkenent, a student?”
“yes!”
“Hey, it’s done. done.”
I nodded towards Solia and lowered my posture.
Click.
Watching Professor Ugor’s eyes, he carefully grabbed the doorknob with one hand.
It was opened.
“Hey, get out of here. If you get caught, tell them to go to the bathroom.”
Solia got up from her seat with a crying face.
profit.
Solia, who had applied the silence magic so that she could barely hear the sound of the chair being dragged, cast [Shadowing].
Sassaak.
Solia’s figure slowly faded into a shadow.
I couldn’t keep my mouth shut at the horrifying sight.
crazy.
I go out like that
Are you a genius?
I almost couldn’t get out of it because I was so engrossed in watching it.
Now is not the time for this.
“Come on – let’s move on to the next chapter… Look at the first question.”
Experienced in the field of departures.
If it’s such a large class, no problem.
I pushed my hand through the slightly opened doorknob. And by looking at the professor’s eyes, I figured out the timing to go out naturally.
Then.
Whoops.
Taking advantage of Professor Ugor’s turn to take notes.
Sassaak.
got out quickly
* * *
After safely escaping the Ardel Academy, he headed straight for the former Arkenent Territory.
It was quite a distance from the Academy, but I arrived relatively comfortably by carriage.
I held out a gold coin to the wagon worker and got off the wagon.
Youngji seems to feel warm even in the slightly chilly weather in early spring.
The Old Arkenent Territory, which has a very different feel from the Castilian Territory, welcomed us.
Solia slowly caught the sight of this place she had been visiting for a long time.
“This is where I used to live when I was a kid.”
Even though it was a family that had collapsed enough to lose its territory, there was a time when it ruled this vast territory.
Those times were cozy and warm in Solia’s memory.
Glitter.
The kid definitely comes here, so it’s full of life.
“Where is your father?”
“Stir- on top.”
Solia was pointing to the mountain behind Wen Market.
It seems that there is a mountain village over there, no matter how ruined the family is… .
I wondered that I was living in the corner of my original estate.
Although she didn’t have to bring it out of her mouth, Solia’s expression was also dark.
“Actually, I haven’t been to the academy since I entered the academy. My father doesn’t usually stay here either. You have bad thoughts.”
“I did.”
From the point of view of Count Arkenent, it would be disgraceful to lose his estate.
So, after staying somewhere else for a while, it seemed that they had to temporarily stay here again after collaborating with Castica.
For Solia, who was drooping, she talked about frivolous things and raised the mood.
After walking like that, I arrived at the market located at the beginning of the mountain behind.
It’s a landscape we all know because it hasn’t been a few years.
Solia quickly lost her dark face and began to introduce me to her hometown.
“If you go down this way, there is a creek. The children usually play there.”
“you also?”
“Actually, I went out and played secretly.”
Mixing with common people and playing secretly.
I can’t imagine that Solia, who secretly pursues culture, did that.
What was Solia like as a child?
They want to get caught up in the water and play with the kids, but it seems like they were paying attention and paying attention.
I want to play, but I can’t play together. Glancing at the kids playing.
Wasn’t it just the style of the daughter of an aristocrat who grew up nicely?
It must have been very cute, but I’ve never seen it, so I have no way of knowing.
While I was smiling while imagining that time, Solia came up to me and talked to me.
“The land of the Arkenent Islands is not fertile, so commerce is mainly developed.”
“Ah, so that’s why you’ve been in business.”
“Yeah, the manufacturing industry is also famous. The Willows’ Artifact Factory is also here.”
“And the Willows?”
“Yeah, I’m probably still here… .”
Solia, who spoke confidently, tilted her head for some reason.
“Uh, were you over there?”
Solia hurried her steps with a look of bewilderment.
“Huh?”
So fast that I can’t keep up.
He barely caught Solia as she was almost running.
“Hey, hey. Why?”
“that is… .”
As she enters the market, Solia’s expression darkens.
“Originally there was a potion street… There was… .”
“Isn’t it confusing because it’s been a long time coming?”
“I can’t.”
I didn’t mind it, but I also knew that something was strange.
It’s the neighborhood where he grew up, but if he feels a sense of alienation, then what has changed?
“The mall has completely disappeared. Can’t you? This is the largest market in the Arkenent Territory.”
“What? really?”
“Wait a minute.”
Solia grabbed the old woman who was walking through the empty market and asked urgently.
“I have something I want to ask you!”
“yes?”
She frowned and turned her head as if she had been calling her, who did not recognize Solia.
Solia swallowed dry saliva and asked again.
“Here, here… Where have all the potions gone?”
“Potion Street?”
“yes.”
Solia was bewildered by her memory and the changed street, and she wanted to hear the reason.
There was one thing I wondered too.
By the way.
The next lady’s words were very shocking.
“here? They all ran away.”
what?
