Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner

Chapter 57

Well then. Well move on to the actual training. 1st shooter, ready.

Yes! 1st shooter, Carrel Oxara, ready, sir!

Carrel answered as the assistant teacher had told her in advance. Silage continued.

Commence shooting.

The moment she activated her magic circle, a bullet of both jet-black and blood shot out from her fingertips.

The bullet hit right in the center of the target with a poof.

The blood type is AP-5. The penetration is 45 mm in diameter. Three targets were penetrated!

An assistant teacher reported right away.

When Silage nodded and activated the mana projector, the students sitting outside the firing line also saw the target Carrel Oxara had hit.

The AP-5 blood type has the property of contracting when it comes into contact with jet-black.

Silage spread out his palms to shift his jet-black into a balloon-like clump, and then poured a drop of AP-5 blood on it. Then, the jet-black quickly gathered around the blood.

It has good penetration, capable of compressing jet-black to the extreme, but its more specialized for building than for emission. It can help form a magic circle, so its a specialized type for the support of jet-black.

Silage turned his head again and looked at Carrel.

You may go back to your seat. Ask the assistant teacher to give you an AP-5 name tag.

Yes sir! Thank you!

Everyone else, you must also wear your name tag on the right side of your chest in the next Hemomancy class. Next, 2nd shooter.

Y-Yes!

A voice of a very nervous girl was heard.

2nd shooter, Camibarez Ursula! Ready, sir!

A small smile appeared on Silages expressionless lips. 

Ursula family, huh? So shes a vampire.

Camibarez aimed at her target, arms trembling.

Since it was her first class in her major, she looked very nervous. Moreover, it was a vampires turn, a species known as the Emperors of Hemomancy, so everyone was focused on her too.

Do your best, Cami.

Simon, who was sitting 6th in line, was also supporting her silently, and Camibarez eyes suddenly turned toward Simon.

It was like his support actually reached her.

With a smirk, she turned her head back and stared at her target.

Commence shooting.

With Silages instruction, she activated the magic circle.

Blood and jet-black that flowed from the tip of her finger held together and shot out like a bullet.

Pooooooooof!

Then, something incredible happened. The moment her Blood Bullet hit the target, it exploded without penetrating them. Four nearby targets were swallowed up in the explosion and destroyed.

Woah-!

The students waiting in the firing line burst out in exclamation. Students who were sitting at the desks were also sticking their heads out.

The blood type is KP-1. Estimating the diameter of the penetrating mark would be meaningless, and there are four targets destroyed by the explosion.

On the screen of the mana projector, you could see the four targets completely shattered.

Silage continued his explanation.

KP-1 blood tends to explode when combined with jet-black. In terms of attack power alone, its the strongest among currently known blood types. Its a type that only vampires have.

Silage added, turning back to Camibarez firing range,

Looks like Ill see you more often from now on, Camibarez.

She got in Silages favor!

Camibarez said a loud thank you, moved. Some students murmured in jealousy,

As expected from a vampire.

Her lineage is crazy.

It's Ursula. Theres nothing we can do about it.

Then, in quick succession, the 3rd and 4th students shot their Blood Bullets. They all had different blood types, and Silage explained the dark magic that was compatible with each type.

And after a while

Now, next student, get ready.

Yes sir.

While the 5th shooter was going, the assistant teacher approached Simon standing at the 6th firing range.

Excuse me. It might sting a liiittle.

As she activated the IV device attached to Simons arm, he felt the blood rushing from his body to the tip of his finger.

Moments later, she spread a magic circle on the tip of his finger, and Simons jet-black and blood flowed out, staining the magic circle red.

Now, good luck~

The assistant teacher cheered in a small voice.

6th shooter.

Then he heard Silages voice. Simon quickly came to his senses and said,

Yes, 6th shooter, Simon Polentia, ready, sir!

Finally, his turn came. Simon closed his left eye and stretched out the tip of his index finger, aiming firmly at his target.

Commence shooting.

His mind went blank as Silage gave his instruction.

The moment his concentration reached its peak, Simon activated the magic circle.

A Blood Bullet shot out, his hand being pushed back by the recoil.

Woosh!

However, the bullet that Simon fired suddenly vanished.

* * *

* * *

Simon and the students who were watching while holding their breath blinked, wondering what was going on, and Hectors faction burst into laughter.

Ahaha! Whats that?

A dark magic where the bullet disappears?

It was then. The blood bullet that disappeared in the middle appeared before the target while emitting blue light.

Craaackle!

As the blue light collided with the target, the firepower spread out in a fan shape. Two of Simons targets were torn, and one target from the 5th range on the left, and one target from 7th on the right were also destroyed.

!

Silage had also never seen a Blood Bullet that spread out in a fan shape the moment it reached the target.

The assistant teacher shook her head in bewilderment and said,

No matching blood type was found. Its a new type.

Clamors.

Silage raised his hand to silence the students and opened his mouth.

Hit targets, 2 in front, 2 to the left and right. Its a type that Im seeing for the first time, so I cant really explain it. Next, the 7th shooter. Please get ready.

Silage immediately proceeded with the next shooting.

Simon was just puzzled. Could there be a type that a Hemomancy professor had never seen? 

As Simon came out of the firing range, the assistant teacher who was distributing name tags scratched his head.

I dont have any name tags for you. Ill prepare a new one for you in tomorrow's class.

Ah, yes.

Simon returned to the seat where Rick, Meilyn, and Camibarez were waiting with puzzled faces.

As soon as Simon arrived, the three interrogated Simon.

Hey, Simon! What is it now?!

I dont know either. I just did what I was told.

A new type! Thats amazing, Simon!

Mmm.

Meanwhile, Rick folded his arms with a worried expression.

New type sounds cool since its kind of special, but Im worried about your future. Doesnt this mean you wont have any guidelines in Hemomancy?

Ah

In Hemomancy, even with the same spells, youd have a very different training method for each type of blood.

Because of that, Hemomancy had more assistant teachers than any other subject, and students were required to put on their name tags with their types on them.

When Silage presented the overall direction, the assistant teachers informed the students with detailed tips suitable for their blood types.

Whats gonna happen to me now?

Simon couldnt help but worry about how his Hemomancy classes would be from now on.

* * *

After the Hemomancy class was over, Silage was replaying the video of Simons blood bullet taken on the mana projector.

I knew it. Im certain.

The characteristic of Simons blood was Multiply.

There was no special action the moment the jet-black and blood met, but the jet-black ate the blood, increasing in capacity and power.

The Blood Bullet flying in seemed to disappear in the middle because the jet-black ate the blood, and the bullet became invisible. Even then, the jet-black hit the target, and damage occurred properly.

Interesting.

An ability that was completely opposite to that of vampires, including Camibarez Ursula.

The powerful blood of vampires consumed jet-black and increased in size, but in the case of Simon, jet-black consumed blood.

Hes a really interesting case. This is definitely worth researching.

Silage closed his eyes and leaned back into his chair, getting lost in memories.

Now I understand why Bahil worked so hard.

Just a few days ago.

Silage and Bahil met in the Professors lounge.

Professor Silage. I have an offer to make.

Certainly, Bahil at that time was more polite than usual.

Do you know this student named Andrea Saki in Class B, which Im in charge of?

Theres no way I wouldnt. 

Instead of answering, Silage took a sip of tea.

Shes a half-vampire, but a Curses aspirant.

Its true that shes quite a gifted student in Curses, but she scored higher in Hemomancy on the recent test as well. A premium one since shes a vampire too.

Click.

Silage put down the teacup and glared at Bahil.

So?

Ill persuade Andrea to major in Hemomancy. Shes a student wholl be a great strength to you in the future, Professor.

Youve always been arrogant, even as a student.

Silages eyes turned fierce.

Know your place, even if you got into the Crow.

Bahil bowed his head politely.

Of course, it was only his actions. His eyes didnt show any signs of succumbing.

Im sorry if I sounded arrogant. I just wanted to help you, as your old student.

Hah! A student who stopped studying Hemomancy as soon as they entered the 2nd semester?

Professor Silage, theres only one thing I want.

Bahils eyes lit up.

Please give up on the recruitment of Simon Polentia from Class A. Thats my only request.

When he first heard it, he thought it was odd because it was an unprofitable trade for Bahil.

For Silage, this person named Bahil was a person who moved only for his own benefit.

Silage obviously thought it was a deal to persuade one of his students to major in Curses in exchange for receiving Andrea from Bahils side.

But that wasnt it.

Bahils condition was to give up on recruiting a student who had already decided to major in Summoning.

Just by declaring that hes giving up on recruiting Simon, Silage couldve acquired an outstanding individual at the level of a direct disciple.

He couldnt understand it at the time, so he avoided giving a direct answer, being dubious of Bahil.

However

Bahil, you bastard

The corners of Silages lips rose.

So you were trying to take this genius for free, huh?

At that moment, the lecture room door opened, and a male assistant teacher approached. Silage woke up from recollection and looked at him.

Professor, I brought your coffee.

Thank you. And you, go to my lab right now and prepare for research paper registration.

Pardon?

The assistant teacher blinked. In the midst of this busy schedule with the class being delayed, a research paper all of a sudden?

Th-Then, what would the topic be?

A new type of blood.

Said Silage while taking a sip of coffee. The assistant quickly figured it out.

So youre going to research the blood of Simon Polentia.

Yeah. We need to hurry before the other Hemomancers in Kizen start to move. Lets call the new blood, well

After thinking for a moment, he chuckled and said,

SM-1 for now, I suppose.

Understood.

And relay this on to all the other assistant teachers.

Silages eyes lit up.

From now on, well also participate in fighting over Simon Polentia.
