Chapter 22:
NecroNovice : Necromancer In Academy [HIATUS]
"I don’t have time for this… Only SS-rankers are allowed in the ring. You know that, right, Arnes Hyouki? If someone below SS-rank tries to enter, the ring’s barrier will reject them. But for SS-rankers, it’s different… and I’m different too..."
That means Kerfern, Tsuki and other can't enter the ring from outside.
"..." Why is this guy explaining this to me? And I hope Imeki is safe despite she got threw out of the ring by the hero, well the hero can't target her again as his opponent is my master.
"...I’m a cursed user, so I can easily enter the ring despite the barrier." He continues.
"I’m sorry, what?" I think I must have misheard him.
"Like I said, I’m cursed, just like you.".
So basically high ranked mages/ knights and only cursed users can enter the barrier. If anyone other with low resistance to the barrier's mana tries to enter they will be blocked.
Rather what most concerning is there is a cursed user just like me infront of my eyes. An enemy or an alley. How is he related to my master. I thought I was the only cursed user.
"Now that your face says how a cursed user like me exist? Well we can talk that later, what more is how are we going to explain this situation to the higher ups, that being said...I am also going to get targetted."
"Um...I don't really get what's happening right now." I spaced out racking my brain.
The hero Itsuka and my master were still in combat, they were smirking while at it. Both of their power matched incredibly.
The cursed user suddenly shortly introduces himself.
"I am Roz Shenri, from the east, my master raised me."
Huh? He looks like we are at the same age, doesn't that mean my master picked up two cursed users at the same time? That I never heard from my master, saying she raised us both at the same time.
"Well Arnes, leave your thoughts aside let's go towards your slave or familiar whatever she is."
"Y-yeah my bad I got lost." I lowered my head.
I again put my hand towards my chest, it was empty, In the hunge of survival I desperately used necromancy magic on myself now I am an undead.
I feel like I lost my humanity.
We walked towards Imeki who wasn't unconscious but rather was just laying with eyes open.
"Gosh Imeki I almost thought you died."
"If I had died, your body would have stopped you know." She coldly says that.
But she is right, her mana channels throughout my body, a pact with lich and life energy resonates within us making me have consciousness and feel life in this lifeless body.
She suddenly stood up staggering and started a spell getting ready for combat-
"Wait Imeki I think he is an alley!" I shouted to stop her from attacking Roz and she dispelled her chant.
"Well that would have done no harm anyway." Roz speaks up shrugging as it was no concern.
Now then, how are we supposed to stop them. Both three looked that the combat which was still ongoing.
Weird how none other SS-tier mages coming to stop us, it's probably how they trust my master being a knight.
"Master, just finish it, we need to go." As Roz higher his voice she suddenly dashed backwards 10 feets away from the hero who was tattered, but he was healing himself.
"Alright, alright, geez I am already in bad mood as one of my disciple died, well he is alive anyway but I am just ending this, sorry alien."
"Hey don't call me alien you fucker-"
["THE HEAVENS SHOULD UNDERSTAND MY JUSTICE, FALL UPON THE SAD SOUL - MEGALOSHARP."] Her voice echoed through the air in melancholy.
Within the barrier, the land suddenly started to shake violently, ten small stones in oval shaped rose from the underground near the hero.
"What the hell? stones? gahaha what's that supposed to-"
With more violent shake the ground ripped apart and the stones rose slowly surrounding him, it weren't stones rather two hands emerged, it was humongous and it clapped the hero with an immense pressure, blood splat all over, as if a mosquito just got vaporized, but it was the regeneration magic, the bloods were going back to the collapsed hand, it was rather futile, even if his body were forming the hand's palms had two big mouth, it opened and swallowed the meshed body, and thus the hero died.
"Well I am done, sorry for the wait Arnes, now then I think the teleportation magic will help us."
The teleportation magic, Rebecca's warp just opened up for us.
"But our match." I mumbled.
"Master, If your condition is known to the country, there will be huge problem."
"Well that's true, haha too much happening at same time."
"Seriously if this were a fantasty novel, I would have gone myself to kill the author for making this shitty story with shitty world building." Roz sighs.
I hold Imkei who was slightly staggering, having a little problem while standing, the impact/blow must have really injured her.
Still my master's [Angel's Hand], even the hero from another world wasn't able to beat it. I am sorry everyone I couldn't win. Couldn't even win my humanity.
And we stepped inside the portal.
"Arnes, that was careless...or I would say what a luck you got to even get matched out with the hero."
Indeed that's true, the hero Itsuka was given a mission to kill cursed user on spot, I am alive by sheer luck. But my master just ended him like a toy.
Roz waved his hand to the principal and chocked her with dashing.
I got on guard, even Imeki, Rebecca dashed towards master with her knuckles and stopped right before her face. It was fast. But why.
Roz was holding principal's neck with disgust but wasn't hurting her as if he did, his master, also my master would have gotten hurt.
"You intentionally rigged the matching up to Arnes with that shity hero didn't you ma'am."
It looked like even the principal knew who Roz was, I felt so left out, plus I wasn't in no situation to try to stop them, as it felt private.
The principal chuckled.
I kept staring.
Rigged matchmaking? doesn't that mean she just wanted me to die?
Also why the hell is she laughing.
