Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 110
110 – Gray Rat (2)
Rakan turned to Bastian with the stunned Thein on his back.
I don’t know if it’s because of Thein on his back or the Rain Rover walking side by side, but many people looked at Rakan with curious expressions.
-What happened in the magical arena?
– I think thein got hit somewhere?
People seemed full of questions, but they didn’t dare come near or follow me.
At that time, the Rain Rover used the 4 circle sound block magic from the multipurpose artifact he was always wearing on his arm.
Rain Rover seemed to have something to say.
“Rakan, how did you break through Tane’s security trick and dispel?”
I thought it was an important word, but it wasn’t, it just seemed like something I was curious about in the duel a while ago.
“Oh, is it? It’s because of your navigation ability. I was recently studying the ‘dial safe type’ security technique, and I found that senior Thein was using the dial safe type security technique.”
The dial safe-type security technique is the most basic yet difficult to solve security technique, inspired by the common safe lock.
By twisting the geometric pattern used in each circle magic at a specific angle for each specific part, it could never be solved if the point and angle where the pattern was twisted could not be found.
However, for Rakan, it was easier to solve such a dial safe type security technique.
Since magic bullet magic is the most basic technique, I knew the composition of magic bullet magic, and I just had to match it by comparing the angle with the twisted point.
And there was no need for Rakan to do the analysis.
The system analyzed it and informed it, and all that Rakan had to do was break through the security technique based on the analysis data and touch the underlying technique.
“I’ve heard of that ability, but it’s an incredible ability.”
“What?”
“The ability to explore. They say that they analyze circle magic on their own. Then, with just one look at the circle magic used by other wizards, isn’t it possible to break through all the security techniques?”
“It’s not like that. That’s why I have to study security techniques. Because there are not only dial safes in the world for security techniques. There are Reigenfrost types, there are Mana Wave types, and there are many.”
“Still, that doesn’t mean that you can use it all if you just study.”
Rakan smiled mischievously.
“Well, that’s it. However, there is still a long way to go. Instructor Tigris and the Empire are helping me in this way, shouldn’t I be better than I was in the previous episode?”
“Rakan is doing well enough. So there is no need to rush.”
“Instructor Tigris is also working hard every second every minute and every second, but I can’t play alone. The main character of the movie I saw said that. “With great power comes great responsibility.” So you have to work hard.”
“·················ogue.”
Rakan studied as well, but was recently performing his duties as an Inquisitor.
Did you say that you can quickly gain points and become stronger?
Nadal’s personality is that Rakan likes the faster he grows, so he gives and teaches assignments as he pleases, but from the Rain Rover’s point of view, Rakan seemed a bit dangerous.
If the rubber band is stretched too tight, it will eventually break.
‘Should I go through psychological counseling once?’
In the case of Charlotte and Irene, it is said that Tigris taught them how to manage stress, but Rakan did not learn that from Nadal.
Nadal was a homunculus closer to a machine than a human, so he was weak in this regard.
‘I’ll have to talk to Instructor Tigris.’
A Tigris would know if Rakan had a problem, and if so, how to fix it.
As we chatted, we arrived at the principal’s office.
Trisha was standing in front of the door to the principal’s office.
“What is Trisha doing here?”
“The Principal Bastian, Tigris-nim, and Djokovic-sama are meeting inside.”
Djokovic was Nadal’s pseudonym.
When Nadal was teaching alchemy at the Imperial University, he was going to teach students under the pseudonym ‘Djokovic’.
“Instructor Tigris? Were you originally scheduled for an interview at this time?”
“no. Originally, there was no such thing, but Tigris-nim came to visit because of the assembly problems of noble wizards.”
‘I was supposed to take care of this wizard’s meeting on my own, didn’t I?’
Obviously, when I left Tigris’s office, I said that I should just stay still.
Why did Tigris, who listens to Rain Rover so well, suddenly move?
‘What happened while I was away.’
The secretary, who was watching quietly, said cautiously.
“Shall I tell you that Princess Rain Rover has arrived?”
“yes. Please. Oh, and his name on here is Thein.”
“yes. thank you.”
The secretary pressed the pager button.
“The principal, Princess Rain Rover, and students Rakan and Thein are here.”
– Ask him to come in.
The secretary got up and opened the door, and Rain Rover, Rakan, and the stunned Thein entered.
“Sorry for coming all of a sudden. Principal Bastian.”
“no. Princess’s Majesty. Rather than that, why is that student carried by Rakan?”
Rain Rover opened his mouth after confirming that the secretary had closed the door and left.
“I came here thinking that this student has been brainwashed.”
“Is that student also brainwashed?”
It was also clear what had happened.
* * *
Turn the time back 30 minutes.
Djokovic.
No, Nadal headed to Tigris’ office as soon as he went to work.
‘Hmm······.’
As usual, Nadal observed the facial expressions of the noble wizards who were holding quiet meetings in front of the faculty building.
There were people with confident expressions as if their actions were unconditionally correct, and there were people who seemed anxious about something.
However, most of them had expressions on their faces as if they were worried about something.
Nadal secretly used a hearing-enhancing magic and listened to the stories of the students chattering in the back seat.
– Are we okay with this? The princess took Thein.
-I don’t know either. Aren’t we all f*cked up like this?
-Damn… it’s time for me to do some research.
‘It’s Thein.’
Tane von Harryford.
In Nadal’s mind, countless pieces of information related to Thein flashed through his mind and then erased.
He was a student in the 3rd year of Elemental Magic and was in charge of the department, and he knew that he had a strong glib among noble wizards.
Did he bring all these students together?
‘That doesn’t make sense?’
Thein was said to have a strong breath, but it wasn’t enough to attract all the wizards from aristocratic families.
The race called wizards had strong individualistic tendencies, and they were not the ones who had enough time to spend on such useless things.
Because they didn’t have enough time just to gather in each club to do individual research and study.
By the way, did all of the noble wizards gather without exception?
After analysis by Nadal’s brilliant reason, he decided that something was strange.
‘Shall we chat for a moment?’
Nadal, who knew nothing else, was more expert than anyone in bringing out the other person’s true feelings through ‘conversation’.
Nadal slowly walked towards the noble wizard standing proudly holding a picket.

After hearing all of Nadal’s story, Rain Rover sighed.
“So the instigators who held the rally had a group seizure and there was a riot? What the hell were you talking about?”
“I just kept digging in because there were loopholes in the logic of the assemblers. Then all of a sudden he attacked me.”

Just as Rain Rover pushed Thein, Nadal seemed to have digged into the same logically.
“How do you do that in front of the assembly? Then, of course, there will be chaos.”
“Did I know I was brainwashed? I was just curious, so I asked a few times, and then I suddenly had a seizure.”
Nadal was also embarrassed.
It was just a little weird, so I just asked a few questions, and I was bewildered when some guys rushed in with bubbles.
“If there is one thing I do know though, out of the 700+ students, only about 31 were brainwashed, and everything else was normal.”
“If you include Thane, only 32 people moved 700 people.”
“The problem was that all 32 of them were influential people within the Imperial University. In short, it was a deliberate brainwashing of the students.”
Bastian looked at Thein with a serious expression.
“Then the problem is very serious. Isn’t that the story of how many more brainwashed students may be spread throughout the Imperial University?”
“It is like that. The problem is that you can’t tell the difference between someone who is magically brainwashed and someone who isn’t.”
Neither Nadal nor Tchrist students noticed that they had been brainwashed.
I just thought it was a bit extreme, but I couldn’t find anything really weird.
“It’s definitely not about brainwashing magic.”
“If that was the case, there would be no way I wouldn’t have noticed.”
“Then there will be one.”
“It’s magic.”
Rain Rover looked at Tigris and said.
“Is there any magic that touches the human mind?”
“there is. It was mainly used by Rota’s Eye Somnium and its ‘Nightmare’ family.”
Rain Rover searched his memory for a moment before opening his mouth.
“When you say Nightmare, are you referring to parasitic chimeras that stimulate the trauma of the other person and make them unable to sleep?”
“yes. you’re right. And nightmares don’t just keep you from falling asleep, they can also stimulate trauma, change your values, or cause mental and physical weakness.”
“Right. Obviously it was. So, can I think of this as a nightmare thing?”
“Considering that these people were brainwashed as a group through a non-magical, shamanistic method, I think it is highly likely.”
“Then the Nightmare will be hiding in Thein and the brainwashed students.”
Tigris nodded.
“It will most likely be.”
“I know it was very easy to get the nightmare out… Was it definitely sugar water? I know that if you pour sugar water into one ear, it will come out on its own.”
“yes. you’re right.”
Nightmare is a chimera of the parasitic monster ‘Brain Sucker’ that lives parasitic on the human brain.
Brain Sucker is a monster mostly found in the southern jungles. It attaches to the human brain and eats various nutrients and brain.
The way to deal with brainsuckers is to run a small electrical current through your body or pour sugary water into your ears.
When Somnium chimerized Brain Sucker, the current resistance was somehow solved, but the sugar water that Brain Sucker liked could not be solved until the end.
Bastian said, stroking his beard.
“But that method cannot be used now. We don’t know how the Somnium will react when it notices that the Nightmare has escaped from its host.”
Nadal opened his mouth.
“By the way, the only way to be sure that this is because of the Nightmare is to check it with sugar water. Nightmare is a chimera of a parasitic monster, but because of its strong magical nature, there is no way to solve it with magic.”
Rain Rover said cautiously.
“You can’t ask that Amoris-sama, right?”
Witch Amoris.
A better shaman than Teho, and a hero who sealed the warrior with Ferreira.
She must have a way around this problem, but there is a problem.
“We have not yet received the news that Amoris-sama has returned to Fogwood.”
“By the way, Fogwood told me that he didn’t know how long it would take because space-time is a warped space.”
Rakan said, looking at the fainted Thein.
“But, can’t we just leave the seniors like that all the time? If I wake up again, I will have another meeting or have a seizure.”
“Isn’t it impossible to isolate in a ward after students say that normal classes are impossible because they have a mental problem?”
Bastian shook his head.
“The wizards who have been brainwashed are all nobles. If you are quarantined because you have a mental problem, the family will be in trouble.”
Rain Rover sighed.
“It’s really frustrating that I can’t do this or that. There is a way to get rid of the brainwashing right now, but that will stimulate Somnium’s vigilance, and let’s leave it alone, the students are the problem right now.”
Nadal thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
“Do we really need to solve the student problems now? After all, only 32 students were brainwashed, and the remaining 700 students were only instigated by 32 students. The remaining 700 people will attend the rally a few times and then disperse on their own. Because they are wizards.”
Rain Rover thought for a moment and then nodded.
“Well, I guess that’s true. But the problem is that there are only 13 students in the Faculty of Magic who applied for Sir Tigris’ lecture…”
“The problem will have to be resolved slowly. Isn’t this week’s lecture correction period anyway? Right now, I can’t apply because I’m noticing agitators like Thein. The number will increase over time.”
Bastian thought for a moment and opened his mouth.
“But I do remember that nightmares definitely dream and reproduce after a period of growth… is that correct? Instructor Tigris?”
“yes. you’re right. The nightmare feeds on nightmares and eventually grows up to a certain extent and then flies and reproduces in the dreams of someone with similar trauma to the host.”
Rain Rover sighed.
“right. I did. So, if parasitic wizards sleep in the dorms, they’ll be contagious to Trinity haters. In a few days, that number will grow exponentially.”
A sigh escaped the people’s mouths.
“Then how can there be no way around it?”
Tigris, who had been quiet, opened his mouth.
“There is one.”
“yes? what is that?”
“People parasitized by Nightmare share a dream with Somnium. And through that dream, Somnium identifies and amplifies the trauma of the other person or brainwashes them. The important thing is to share a dream with Somnium.”
Rain Rover’s expression turned pale.
“Wait a minute, that’s the way….”
“yes. That’s right. I will be parasitized by the Nightmare and find Somnium. I’ve found this before, so the second one will be easy.”
“But you said that Lord Tigris suffered a lot because of that.”
The trauma that Somnium stimulated Tigris at that time was the death of his father Beowulf and the downfall of Norbert.
Because of that, Tigris was almost half-crazed and roamed the battlefield alone.
However, Somnium could not bear the sorrow of Tigris and revealed Somnium’s dream, and Tigris was able to follow the traces of the dream to find Somnium and eventually kill him.
“It can’t be that way. I’d rather call Elder Teho again, or wait for Amoris-sama. That method is very dangerous.”
Then, Rakan opened his mouth.
“·······Well, I think there is one solution?”
Tigris tilted his head.
“Is there a solution?”
“yes. So, after all, the nightmare is a parasite, but in the end it’s a mind attack. Yes?”
“Yes.”
“And it’s true that if you stay alert in a dream, you can follow the traces of the dream and find out where the somnium is.”
“right.”
“Then can I do it for you?”
“······What?”
Rakan opened the point shop window.
