Aspakeony was horrified by the thought that Zoemi ca in contact with the Ghosts of Bellcephora and he was already obsessed with getting stronger to the point of hunting down other mages just like the treacherous Ghost did three hundred years before, while Zoemi was confused why he sees a moving dead body with the shadow of a teenage girl stuck to it like so sort of leach or rather a half-slug parasite.
Both of them were at a stalemate...
"So you are trying to say that you don't know that the Marigotiee Kingdom got completely destroyed...?"
The headmaster asked carefully pronouncing every word while staring straight at the black-haired boy waiting for him to break his innocent act...
"It did!? Really!? That's awe....hngh...! H-horrible! Just horrible! And no, I didn't know at all – when did that happen?!"
Because of the pure weirdness of the situation, Zoemi basically showed his true feelings.
|If there is no kingdom, no one will want to take away Miriette! Who did it?! Oh, I could kiss them!|
The black-haired boy's reasoning was as simple as that – and it was also rather inappropriate, like that...
"Then what, you haven't joined the Ghosts of Bellcephora either?"
Aspakeony asked in shock through the mouth of her corpse puppet.
"What?! When was that a possibility in the first place?! No – wait - Ghost of Bellcephora? Aren't they all long dead in the first place!?"
Zoemi asked taken aback, looking at the corpse puppet headmaster as if he lost his mind together with his life.
"But... You can use shadow gate, right? You must have heard the voices already! Almost every darkness magician does!"
The corpse of lord Vereq shook his head and pointed out with accusation.
"What voices!? What do you an, you weird necromancer girl!? UMPH!"
"!!!"
After Zoemi shouted the last part he hurriedly closed his mouth with both his hands - but it was already too late the headmaster - and therefore Aspakeony - has heard him loud and clear and beca jumped up in horror.
She instantly called over every dead light magician that she had in her army so she would be able to teleport as far as possible if the worse ca to worst.
"AHA! You know about so you are together with them after all! What do you want now?! You all promised that you will leave alone even if you gain new mbers!"
"...wha...?"
The situation beca super awkward since the headmaster's body language beca that of a teenage girl and because of his rather large build, it looked really disturbing, leaving the black-haired boy completely speechless...
"How the hell did you make that connection?! I never even t another darkness magician – probably... as far as I can rember, at least – I think I would rember eting a whole damn group of the worst traitors in the entire history of our kingdom!"
...and as soon as Zoemi regained his voice, he called out angrily the ridiculous and baseless accusation.
"But you know about ! So other Ghosts must have told you, or share their minds with you, or whatever you dark magicians do when you start using shadow gate and start lting together!!"
Aspakeony and therefore the headmaster beca agitated and stepped forward even though the corpse was backing off just a few seconds ago...
"No! Not at all! It's just that as a darkness magician I can see shadows of people and..."
Zoemi started explaining but...
"What's with that stupid excuse!? Everyone can see the shadows!"
The headmaster stomped his foot in anger.
"Not that ones! Darkness magicians can see the uniqueness of the shadows, every living thing has one. And here's the problem! You are clearly a dead body with a shadow of a teenage girl sewn onto it! And you clearly control it with the necromancy spell!"
The black-haired boy called Aspakeony out also stepped forward and pointed his index finger right at the face of her corpse puppet.
"Bullshit! That is NOT sothing a darkness magician can do! I know – before any mber of the Ghosts was even born I used to have darkness magicians in my army! You are so full of shit!"
The necromancer scoffed in anger and took another step forward, making the corpse of lord Vereq to lean down and glare down at the angry black-haired boy.
"...huh...?"
Zoemi blinked a few tis completely flabbergasted by the corpse puppet's words.
"Wh... what do you an that's not sothing that a darkness magician can do – so what, teacher Kros was actually serious when he said that I'm a variant magician and not a darkness magician...?"
"!!!!"
The black-haired boy's shoulders slumped down and he looked up at the corpse puppet, with the expression just like a lost and scared puppy...
|GAH...! Dear heavens, he is so cute...! No – wait – that's not a ti and place for that...!|
Aspakeony flinched and covered her face with both hands but since her mind was connected to her corpse puppet who didn't repeat her motion, that gesture turned out to be useless as she could still clearly see the black-haired boy's face clearly.
"...what do you an... Kros told you that you might actually be a variant magician... when...? What was his reason...?"
Getting assaulted by the overwhelmingly pretty face Aspakeony ended up dropping her guard just a little bit and asked in a much calr manner.
"...he asked to show up at his office a few tis after the magic examination and gave tasks to complete while training... Like using a spell from a different attribute for example – but during those sessions, I never actually managed to do that – but teacher Kros still thought that my attribute isn't darkness..."
Zoemi explained, also n a much calr, almost apologetic manner.
|...Light doesn't create Darkness, it creates Shadow.... wait... THAT'S WHAT LITTLE KROS ANT?! THIS KID ISN'T A DARKNESS MAGICIAN, HE IS A SHADOW MAGICIAN?! SERIOUSLY?!|
Aspakeony groaned internally, kicking her legs up in annoyance.
"Then, you know about because you can see those whole shadows, and not because you ca in contact with the Ghosts of Bellcephora...?"
The gray-haired necromancer sighed through the mouth of the puppet-headmaster while massaging her own forehead in the safety of the headmaster's office.
