Genius Is Taught by Geniuses 131

131 – Dungeon of the Constellation (1)

After receiving a new life from Arfem, Pelen has traveled all over the continent.

Black Earth, Gillion Kingdom, Jungle, Godiva Kingdom, Extinction…

Naturally, I had been to Norverd before, and the more I looked at this land, the more mysterious it was.

This land was originally uninhabitable.

Variant ogres and orcs living in the Gaul Mountains often came down to slaughter civilians, and the land was barren and cold, making it unsuitable for farming.

Although it had the advantage of having high-quality veins buried here and there, it was natural that the mines stimulated human greed, so it was natural for blood to flow everywhere.

However, the Norbert Frontier was…

“So peaceful and busy.”

Felen looked to the side, wondering if her thoughts had been read.

Next to him was a man wearing a black hoodie.

“The mines are monopolized by the Norberd family, but the mine development rights are properly granted to the subordinate families to prevent conflicts, and the mutant ogres and orcs living in the Gaul Mountains are blocked by the Norberdian walls and knights, and farming in barren land Instead, import agricultural products directly from the profits from the mines. Even if this land is not the territory of the frontier who serves the Empire, it is not lacking even if it is a kingdom.”

Pelen looked at the vibrato and said.

“Did I tell you not to read my mind as you please? Vibrato?”

Vibrato lifted his head and looked at Pelen.

Then the hidden face of the vibrato was revealed.

Vibrato’s face was covered with severe burn scars, and both eyes were covered with black eyepatch for invisibility.

Vibrato said, pointing to his eye patch.

“You said It is impossible to pick and read people’s hearts.”

Vibrato said with a smirk.

“And I hear your heart better than the others. Can you do your job properly only when your heart flutters like that?”

“Shut up and collect information. Don’t even think about looking into my heart.”

“I told you. That’s impossible. Wouldn’t it be better to move separately in this case?”

“If I disappear, you’re going to be a joke. Do you think I’ll just be watching it?”

“It is mentally exhausting to listen to the ugly thoughts of others. It is especially difficult to look inside yourself.”

Pelen snapped the vibrato by the neck! caught it

“Stop chatting and get to work.”

Vibrato shrugged off Felen’s hand.

“It looks like you’re mistaken, but it’s your side that feels regretful. Don’t you think I don’t know you’re running out of time? You’re in such a hurry, didn’t you miss the last time?”

Pelen looked at the vibrato as if to kill it.

“Did I miss something in a hurry? Is this because it’s all my fault now?”

“You seem to have forgotten that I can read your heart? If you hadn’t told Somnium to touch the students of the Imperial College, I know very well that this wouldn’t have come this far. After all, your impatience has brought this to this point.”

“I made an offer, but it was Somnium that I accepted. And Somnium said it was worth the risk.”

“So it’s not your fault, is it? Somnium, unlike you, hated showing up very much in the first place. But since you continued to put pressure on me, I was forced to contact the wizards of the Imperial University.”

Vibrato said, pulling his hood back deeply.

“So, please, let’s take it slow. Do not move hastily.”

Pelen gritted her teeth.

“You guys have always been like that. When Arphem-sama and us took a risk and appeared outside, you locked yourself in the lab like rats and fiddled with the chimeras.”

Vibrato smirked as if it was absurd.

“Don’t lie to me if no one else knows. Do you think I don’t know that the reason you guys keep showing up in the world is to satisfy your ugly greed? Our Rota’s body was always busy cleaning up the shit you guys packed. like now.”

Vibrato said as he slowly walked down the streets of Norverd.

“Feira asks for the power to end the conflict in the Black Earth, Tempe asks for the power to take control of the sect, and Kaira asks for the power to obtain that snotted fortress. Arphem-sama gave you the power, and you only received that power to satisfy your desires, didn’t you?”

Vibrato said as he grabbed Pelen’s shoulder, which had closed his mouth like a honeydew.

“Don’t think of satisfying your personal desires as a sacrifice for Rota and Arpem-sama.”

“Aren’t you also serving Rota and Arfem without any greed? Because you also want something, I entrusted my soul to Rota and Arpem. is not it?”

“When did I say that I serve you two with a pure heart? At least I’m not acting as disgusting as you.”

Vibrato said as he slowly walked down the street.

“So, what I want to say is, don’t order me to do this or that on a topic that I regret, this is it. A proud old man.”

Felen clenched her fists.

Vibrato was right a hundred times, so there was nothing to say.

Vibrato decided that he had won the fight with Pelen and went to the main point.

“Anyway, after a month or so of wandering around this area, it’s absolutely perfect. It takes at least three or four years of work to see the gaps.”

“Is that enough?”

“It’s completely different from the Kingdom of Gillion. There was a serious conflict between the royal family and the denomination, so there were gaps, but here the exchanges between each family are active and the income base is very strong. People are good too.”

“If you cut off mining income, won’t you see the answer?”

“Even if mining income is temporarily cut off, I have accumulated wealth that will last at least two or three years. And even if there is a setback in the mining industry, the real estate industry is making a lot of money with the recent rapid rise. It would be better to stop thinking about blocking the money line and shaking it.”

“Then what about assassinating Beowulf?”

Vibrato said, pondering.

“Even if you assassinate Beowulf and put Tigris on the marquee, your foundation is so strong that it won’t be shaken easily. If we want to shake Norberd, we must destroy the fundamental system that governs the Norberd region, not Beowulf.”

“Still, Tigris cannot be involved in central politics.”

“Don’t you think Tigris can take all the powers of the Norbert Frontiers? That could make it even more difficult. Beowulf doesn’t invest much in national defense because he’s the type who cares more about people’s livelihood and economic development than soldiers. On the other hand, Tigris is more interested in national defense.”

“Then it’s much better for Beowulf to rule the Norbert area, isn’t it?”

“That is my judgment.”

Phelen bit her lip.

It was because Pelen’s thoughts were similar to vibrato.

“If Levis or Somnium were alive…”

“Well, it would have been a lot easier. The real estate company will be completely paralyzed if you alienate the families under Norberd to paralyze the mines and corrupt the spirit of Baron Baiton. I’m afraid the money line will get cut off soon. But all the good methods have crossed the water.”

“…but it’s still better than having Tigris in the center.”

The vibrato read Felen’s impatient mind.

Pelen now only has 7 to 8 years to live.

He had to take revenge on the Lord Elim family who had betrayed him before that, but as long as Tigris was in the zodiac, it was almost impossible.

So I was looking for an excuse to somehow send Tigris to Norbert, but I was starting to get annoyed when Vibrato kept flirting with me.

“Do you really want to get Tigris out of the zodiac?”

“The goal is not to remove them from the ecliptic, but to kill them.”

“That is the distant future. You know it’s impossible now, don’t you?”

“Then you have to take some risks.”

Vibrato looked at Pelen.

“Are you planning on doing things wrong again because of your impatience?”

“Didn’t I say that Beowulf is going down to the ecliptic because of Schubert after his engagement?”

“Are you planning on attacking Beowulf? If you try poorly and fail, you will become more vigilant and it will be difficult to target the next time.”

“But it’s true that opportunities like this don’t come often.”

Vibrato pondered for a moment, as Pelen’s words had some truth to them.

“Then what do you gain by killing Beowulf?”

“I’m not going to kill you, I just have to keep breathing.”

Vibrato knew exactly what Pelen was aiming for.

“Originally, the period when there is a change of government or when the king is ill are the times when the state is most shaken. Stop worrying about the T-Christ and other things.”

“That is what I am aiming for.”

Vibrato thought carefully once more and opened his mouth.

“For now, let’s try to get things done while slowly gathering information. But the moment I judge it to be even a little risky, I will fall for it. You should know that.”

“If you do your job properly, there will be no problems. This time, it won’t be just the two of us.”

“Are you going to call the others?”

“Even if it’s excessive, it’s probably right to handle this with certainty.”

Pelen said, disappearing among the noisy trolleys.

“Then I will ask Arfem for assistance. So you do what you do right.”

Vibrato muttered, looking precisely in the direction Pelen was disappearing.

“I’m going to have to help out in moderation on this one. If I do something wrong, my neck will fly off.”

Semester 2 went by faster than expected.

Rakan was busy taking classes at the Imperial University while taking private alchemy classes with Nadal at the same time.

Tigris focused on personal training because he had to complete 6 rings before entering the dungeon.

Charlotte, Irene, and Linia also worked hard to enter the dungeon of the Iron-Blood Heart.

With such a busy life, it was December when it snowed, and Tigris received a telegram.

“They say they are leaving next week.”

At Tigris’ words, Rain Rover opened his mouth.

“Then you should arrive the day before the engagement.”

“It takes about ten days from Norverd to the ecliptic, so you should be there by that time.”

Tigris folded the telegram finely and handed it to Rain Rover.

Rain Rover asked cautiously.

“Are you worried?”

“I can’t say no.”

December is the most vulnerable time.

Now, if Rota and Arfem suddenly attack, it will be very fatal.

Knowing this, he hid the fact that Tigris was attacking the Iron-Blood Heart dungeon so that Beowulf could not even know it… but he was still uneasy.

They always attack unexpectedly at the worst time.

“If I find out that I’m going to disappear for three days to clear the dungeon, they’ll definitely target my father. It’s not that he’s weak enough to be beaten by them, but it’s true.”

Tigris killed Levis, who had cast a terrible curse on Beowulf before returning.

But that doesn’t mean you can be reassured.

Because Rota and Arpem still have monsters like Pelen and Tempe.

If they go after the Beowulf as a group, the Beowulf will be helpless.

Rain Rover took Tigris’ hand.

“Do not worry. We are well prepared.”

“I know.”

The empire before the return and the empire now are very different.

The fact that Tigris returned was so good that I never thought that it would change like this.

But I’m anxious.

From now on, a future completely different from the one Tigris knew awaits.

Tigris was still unable to escape from the bloody red battlefield.

“Tigris.”

Tigris and Lane Rover looked back at the voice they heard from behind.

It was Amoris.

“Let’s go to the library without saying that the two of us are getting married now. Trisha really, really, really said that the final plan of attack was completed.”

Trisha prepared thoroughly for three months as the leader of the dungeon raid of the constellation.

For this attack, Trisha had to hold numerous meetings with the Golden Knights, the Inquisitor, the Ministry of Finance, and many other ministries of the Empire.

As the princess and Tigris moved directly, there were a lot of things to be concerned about with security, and because they had to attack the dungeon safely and quickly, they had to support a lot of artifacts.

Whether this attack succeeded or not, it was clear that Trisha would be the first contributor.

“Are Rakan and Nadal here too?”

“uh. You just need to come.”

“All right.”

Tigris and Rain Rover headed to the study.

Although Tigris’ study was not small, it seemed full because there were too many people.

First of all, there were Bergang, the representative of the Golden Knights, Nadal, the leader of the Inquisitor and key member of the attack, and Trisha, the captain of the Iron Blooded Heart raid.

After that, Charlotte, Irene, Linia, Rain Rover, Tigris, Rakan, Nemesis, and Sora were the members of the raid.

Bastian is an advisor and will safely transport the raid to the dungeon of the Iron-Blood Heart.

And even Amoris, who didn’t take on any role, but would immediately support him in case of a problem.

A total of 13 people were in the study.

When Tigris sat down at the top, Trisha, who was covered in dark circles, got up and headed for the board.

“ah! ah! greatness! Then we’ll start explaining the final plan right away. Once you have listened to everything, please do not stop talking in the middle. If you have any questions, please raise your hand after listening to everything.”

Trisha looked very tired as if she had suffered a lot from people while preparing for this attack.

Tigris nodded and Trisha started the briefing.

“First of all, I won’t be able to explain all the plans to you because of security concerns. Also, due to time constraints, I will only explain the key points, so please understand that most of them are focused on attacking the Iron-Blood Heart.”

Trisha stuck a large piece of paper to the board.

The board was electrostatically applied, so the paper stuck like a magnet.

A large map was drawn on the paper, a map of the southern borders of Norbert.

Trisha pointed to a large mountain range located in the southern region of Norverd.

“First of all, as a result of preliminary research, the location of the dungeon was determined to be in the Cooper Mountains in the southern part of the Norbert Frontier. For security reasons, we cannot and do not need to know the exact location. Principal Bastian will move you through the multi-teleport magic 9 times over 3 days. You just need to know that you are in the Kouper Mountains.”

Trisha looked at Rakan and Charlotte, Irene and Linia in that order and said.

“If Principal Bastian takes us safely, we will rest there for 8 hours and then start attacking the dungeon. If there is a raider who takes damage that cannot be healed within 8 hours of a space shock from a long-distance teleportation, that person will be left unconditionally. The decision is made by me as the team leader. So, until then, take good care of your condition.”

The four of them clenched their fists and nodded their heads.

Others will be fine, but you don’t know if your body will hold up.

Experiencing space shock nine times in a row is something you have to be prepared for.

If you don’t stay alert, your body will be concussed, causing permanent and irreparable damage.

Trisha stuck another piece of paper.

This time it was a map.

“This is the key from now on. If all of the raid members are not physically ill, the attack team will be divided into four teams. First of all, Nadal-nim and Rakan are the core members of Team A. You will be in charge of making the iron-blooded heart, and Team B is all alone, Sir Tigris. You will save the heart of the giant, the most important ingredient.”

Tigris, Nadal and Rakan nodded.

“And I, Princess Rain Rover, and Charlotte, Irene, and Linia will form Team C and head to Selfs Lake to retrieve the tears of Nyx. And Nemesis and Sora will form a D team and head to the jungle to find powder for the wings of the World Tree.”

Trisha said, tapping the board.

“From now on, you have to pay attention and listen carefully. If you enter the dungeon of the constellation, you will unconditionally scatter 100%.”

Trisha’s expression was very serious.

“The reason is ‘characterization’.”
