Necromancer Academy and the Genius Summoner - Chapter 147

The worldbuilding here is taking a nosedive. Every time there’s been a conflict holy powers have been shown, as a general rule, to hard counter necromancy. Then you remember Ferr and the Battallion’s introduction back in 22 and (ignoring the part where Richard didn’t actually rule over the continent at any point) Feer hypes it up as sufficient to conquer the continent and… Keizen declares a bunch of undead to be public enemies. Putting aside how illogical it is, blaming undead for their necromancer’s commands, there’s a problem of their being an order to destroy/remove a power that can oppose a rival nation’s powerhouses. It’s just bad writing made worse by introducing a counterpart to batallions, which themselves seemed to be the only reason Keizen would have been a threat to Efnelle/ the Holy Federation, in the form of saints that seem able to match/overpower Battalions.

Also Keizen is aggressively incompetent letting not just any priest, but a saint infiltrate them. Like I said, everything seems one-sided so far. Priests have the ability to detect undead (mentioned during the first mission) but apparently it isn’t that our boy Simon hasn’t learned how to detect priests, but that they can’t if such a powerful priest was just in Keizen for so long.
This chapter undermines everything before it for a flashy reveal.
