Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 128
128 Episodes – Homunculus (1)
Amoris’ education was surprisingly systematic.
First, in the corner of the terrace, set up a memorial stone with the names of the spirits written on them one by one.
“Look Carefully. It is best to place the memorial stone in a place that is directly exposed to sunlight. The memorial is made of wood and stone is fine, but I like stone if possible.”
Teach me how to cook ancestral rice.
“You can put the incense in the front and the ritual tools behind it. I’m talking shit like this, but I don’t need to know any terminology like that. Just think of the order of placing food as cold food in front and hot food in the back.”
Teach me how to mourn.
“Just as each person has their likes and dislikes, so every spirit has their likes and dislikes. Since numbers are numbers, we can’t count them all down, but wouldn’t it be nice if we could provide one of our favorite foods as a service for each spirit’s birthday or anniversary?”
Finally taught me how to crave.
“hey! I also set up a memorial stone, prepare the ancestral meal, and perform a memorial service. I did it all, but what are you guys doing now? Can you see the hand? Why don’t you hang the laundry?!”
The spirits moved in harmony with Amoris’ words.
The spirits worked hard at home, doing laundry and cleaning with all their might.
“Tom! Aren’t you stepping on the blanket?! What, you were a noble before you died, is this?! So it wasn’t Rebecca? Look, Rebecca, how good are you?!”
“Johnson. what are you Are you kidding me now?! What are you on a break now? Break time is crap! Shall I check the schedule? Check it out and I know you won’t be able to eat Lenny’s special meal today unless it’s a break!”
“Stupid Jane. Are you a guardian spirit? You don’t have to take care of them. How do I check everything? Hurry up and find out if there are any naughty guys down there!”

Jane said, squeezing her head at Amoris’ scream.
“Stop shouting! What the hell…!”
“What? what to do?”
“will do······.”
As Amoris tried to get the glove out of her arms, Jane raised her voice.
“I was going to do it!”
To be honest, it was true that the lives of the spirits and Jane got better after Amoris came.
Aside from the fact that the table was enriched because Tigris saw the spirits working hard at the housework and paid for various incidental expenses separately, when Lenny carefully wipes the memorial, it feels like a thread that has been deeply entrenched in the spirits’ hearts is unraveled. because it was
When Jane saw her own memorial monument lying in the corner of the terrace, something unknown came up and she tried to say harsh words to Amoris, but it got stuck in her neck and could not come out.

Jane shouted at the spirits.
“What are you guys doing now?! After all, it’s me who gets scolded?! Where the hell did James go?! If you don’t come within a minute, all of you are jointly responsible!”
Of course, Jane properly learned how to crave the spirits of Amoris, so the spirits at the end of it looked like they had two demonic bosses, and they were about to die.
At first, Lenny tried to practice scolding spirits like Amoris and Jane, but Amoris gave him a different role because he had a very kind heart and could not speak harsh words.
That role was what Lenny could do best.
He played the role of comforting the spirits that came to him sadly with food after hearing the voices he had spoken to Jane or Amoris.
Anyway, after about a month, the penthouse that used to go to and from the castle started to roll properly, and Lenny and Karen were relaxed enough to have tea with Amoris after lunch.
Of course, Lenny and Karen were unfamiliar with the sudden arrival of leisure, so while drinking tea, they continued to stare at laundry or broomsticks floating in the air.
“Lenny. Karen. what are you looking around Are you meerkats?”
“Still, I’m a little nervous……”
Karen kept staring at the kitchen, worried that the ghosts might break the dishes while washing the dishes.
“Just as you all grew up by making mistakes in the beginning, the spirits will also grow by making mistakes. So don’t worry and enjoy the moment.”
There was nothing wrong with Amoris’ words, so Lenny and Karen nodded and drank tea.
Of course, that didn’t work out the way he had planned, so he kept staring at him, and Lenny decided to turn his attention elsewhere.
“By the way, I heard that Amoris-sama is a spirit magician, but don’t you use spirits?”
“me? Well, they do summon spirits, but ordinary spirits don’t.”
“Then what spirits are you calling?”
Amoris put down the teacup and said.
“Evil spirit.”
Lenny and Karen trembled slightly at the word “evil spirit”.
“Ah… can you cast evil spirits?”
“If you look at the evil spirits as a big category, they are nothing more or less than a spirit that has deepened their anger. As long as you meet their requirements well, you can do it. For example, a demon who likes to drink blood can be murdered, and a demon who likes to collect nails can be tortured.”
Karen and Lenny’s mouths turned blue at Amoris’s tone of words, who spoke horribly and casually.
“Of course, when I came here, I ordered all of them and now I don’t have any. No matter how much I am, it is a little difficult for me to carry such great demons in the zodiac other than Fogwood.”
“Oh, I see.”

Jane flew away and flopped down on the sofa.
“I can’t even beat myself to death now. tiring! It’s hard!”
Amoris shrugged and said.
“okay. You have to rest so that other kids can take a break as well. Even among spirits, hierarchy is very important. Jane.”

Jane also learned a lot from Amoris.
Although they are called guardian spirits, they did not know how to properly handle spiritual power, but Amoris taught me how to effectively handle spiritual power.
That’s why Jane couldn’t be rude to Amoris.
Wow-!

Jane looked at Amoris.
Amoris said with a smirk.
“But I don’t think it’s okay to rest yet, Jane.”
“Aaaaah!”

Jane grabbed her head and flew into the kitchen.
“Why the hell?! I told you to tell me when your spiritual power is low?! Do you know how much the plate you ate in your hammock?! I think I’m going to have hair loss that I’ve never had before!!!”
Amoris watched Jane with a smirk as she put on the heat.
It looked so devilish. Lenny and Karen looked away and only drank tea.
At that moment, Karen carefully raised her hand, wondering if she had any questions.
“There, Amoris-sama.”
“Don’t raise your hand and be comfortable with it. Just call me sister.”
“········Unnie is not used to it yet.”
“Well, yes. Anyway, what are you curious about?”
“You said that Lenny has a talent for magic, is it because she has a talent for spirit magic that makes all the ancestral meals for Lenny by herself?”
Amoris asked in a funny way.
“why? Is it because Lenny seems difficult to cook by herself?”
“······yes. I want to help out a little, but I wonder if that’s okay.”
“Unfortunately, no. Karen, you don’t have such warm hands as Lenny. This is my innate constitution, so it’s not something I can do anything about.”
“Ah… is that so?”
“Still, it’s not bad if you learn the magic of spirits too. Because if you drive away evil spirits, the house will be warm. It won’t be bad if you use it when you go back to Norbert or work elsewhere. So you learn.”
Karen’s eyes twinkled.
“Then, is it okay for me to learn spirit art too?”
“okay. It’s not a bad thing to teach at the same time.”
“thank you! I will study hard!”
To be honest, Karen was a little envious of Lenny.
Lenny learns to cook and learns the magic of spirits, but Karen has to keep an eye on it, so she feels a little alienated.
“Anyway, you two are very close. Were you friends from a long time ago?”
Lenny opened her mouth.
“Karen recommended me after working for the Norbert family about a year earlier. Thanks to that, I was able to work as a maid.”
“Um, that’s right. So, are you two getting along like real sisters?”
“yes. Hehe. I am always grateful to Karen.”
While we were chatting about various things, Amoris’ eyes suddenly turned to the elevator.
“uh? Who is coming now?”
Amoris’ face changed to contemplation at the report of the spirit.
“Mi … Crazy! Why all of a sudden?!”
Lenny and Karen were a bit perplexed, as they had never seen Amoris look so desperate.
“Who is coming?”
“Come on, wait a minute!”
Without saying a word, Amoris hurriedly took the pouch and headed to the bathroom.
At the same time, when they heard the elevator moving, Lenny and Karen quickly cleaned up the tea set and then dressed up.
The spirits who were cleaning the house quickly disappeared after putting the cleaning tools back in place.
Ding-!
When the elevator door opened, Lenny and Karen bowed their heads in greeting.
In the elevator were Tigris, Rain Rover, Charlotte, Irene, Trisha, Nemesis, Sora and Rakan.
Tigris said looking at Lenny and Karen.
“Where is Amoris-sama?”
“You are in the bathroom.”
“When you come out, tell him to come to the library.”
“Yes. All right.”
Nemesis and Sora unlocked vigilance mode.
Then he drooped down on the sofa like a tired puppy after playing with a lot of fun.
“Lenny~ I need some cool lemonade~”
“I am Grapefruit Ade!”
Lenny answered right away.
“yes. All right! What else do you need?”
Lenny and Karen looked at Trisha while taking the order.
“Sir Trisha. Is there anything you need?”
“······No. I’ll go to my room and rest.”
Trisha was very low pressure.
Trisha recently took a break from Tigris’ security work and was working as the head of the overall planning team for the dungeon attack of the constellation.
So Trisha was very busy, but she never lost her smile.
Rather, it would have been more accurate to say that it was more enjoyable.
But why am I so weak today?
Lenny looked at Charlotte and Irene, but they just shrugged and made a gesture that they didn’t know.
Once Lenny and Karen took everyone’s orders except Trisha, they headed to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the spirits are already getting ready! It was after it was finished.
Lemon and grapefruit juice, cool ice, herbs, and teacups were all spread on the table, and Lenny and Karen were prepared as they were arranged.
“············This seems really good.”
“I know.”
Lenny glanced at the bathroom while making lemonade.
“By the way, why did Amoris-sama rush into the bathroom?”
“Well?”
At that moment, the bathroom door opened and Amoris came out.
Amoris had her hair neatly tied back, and the perfume smelled very faintly.
Besides, she changed to light makeup as if she had no makeup on, and Lenny and Karen stopped what they were doing and looked at Amoris blankly, as if it was hard to believe that they had done all this in such a short time.
Amoris glanced around the living room and whispered to Lenny.
“Where did Rakan go?”
“··························Rakan entered the study with Tigris-sama and Rain Rover-sama. Oh, and Tigris has found Amoris.”
“okay? greatness! okay.”
Amoris took out her hand mirror one last time, checked her makeup once more, and checked to see if there were any stains on her clothes.
And Amoris asked again carefully.
“How am I now? Would you like to come and change clothes?”
“······yes?”
“So, isn’t my attire weird? Isn’t that too ordinary?”
“No…are you okay?”

Jane, who appeared from the ceiling, blinked, unable to adjust to the appearance of Amoris, who suddenly changed to look like a young teenage girl.
“I didn’t eat the heat in the early winter… Did you take any strange medicines in the car?”
“Shut up. Jane.”
“Looking at the bad mouth, it doesn’t look like he took any medicine. Then why the hell are you doing that?”
“I have a job. Anyway, don’t even think about coming in, because if you or the spirits enter the study, they’ll throw you away. Okay?”
Amoris took a deep breath and then headed to the study.

Jane got goosebumps at the sight and hugged Lenny tightly.
“I think I ate something really wrong…”
* * *
As Amoris entered the study, Rakan bowed his head to greet him.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, Amoris.”
“Yes. It’s been a while. Rakan.”
Amoris sat down on the sofa, pretending to be as calm as possible.
It was the first time we met after crying in front of Rakan in the carriage, so I was very nervous.
To be honest, it’s not something to be so nervous about, but when Amoris kept looking at Rakan, it reminded him of the old Ferreira, so it was hard to manage his expression.
Tchrist knew this very well, so he did not say much about Amoris’s passionate emotional change.
Amoris deliberately sat next to Rakan not facing him.
It was because it seemed like a stupid smile would come out of his face every now and then.
“What made Rakan come all the way here?”
“There is a setback in the dungeon attack plan.”
There is a lot of work to be done in December of this year.
First of all, you have to finish the Iron Blooded Heart Dungeon within a week, and immediately after the engagement ceremony, the regular meeting of the swordsmanship family, Schubert.
We had to divide the staffing in detail in our busy schedule, but we ran into a very big problem from the start.
“Amoris-sama, there is one thing I would like to ask you.”
“yes. tell.”
“Can a soulless homunculus be subjected to the dungeon of the constellation or the trial of the constellation?”
Amoris tilted his head as if ambiguous.
“Um…for a being without a soul, it is impossible to undergo the trials of the constellation. The trials of the constellation are for the soul, not the body.”
At those words, the expressions of Rain Rover, Rakan and Tigris got worse.
To be precise, does it look like you’ve resigned?
Amoris tilted his head and said.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“One of the key members who will enter the dungeon of the Iron-Blood Heart this time is the Homunculus.”
Nadal is the only 7th circle alchemist in the Empire.
If he doesn’t enter the Iron Blooded Heart dungeon, he can’t even start the dungeon attack.
“Oh, come to think of it, did you say that the head of the Inquisitor was a homunculus?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“But what is the problem? Do you think that homunculus cannot enter the dungeon of the constellation because it has no soul?”
Rain Rover nodded.
“yes. Right. Had I known this, I would have found another alchemist or another way…”
“I am not an alchemist, but since I am in a position to deal with souls, I know a little about the homunculus. The core of a homunculus is to create a soul through alchemy, right?”
Rain Rover tilted his head.
“yes? Homunculus alchemy to create souls? Not the body?”
“If you have enough materials to make a body, you can make it at the level of a 5th circle mage. It’s illegal, so we just don’t make it.”
“Then why couldn’t the homunculus be created because there was no way to create a soul?”
“yes. Right. Nothing in this world can make a soul. That’s why alchemists can’t make homunculus.”
Tigris, Rakan, and Rain Rover looked at each other strangely.
“Then what is Nadal? Nadal obviously said he had no soul.”
Amoris looked at the three of them as if they were absurd.
“Is that person a psychic? Or are you an alchemist? Or have you even developed a spell that allows you to wield or see souls? Or do you know how to make a homunculus?”
“…isn’t that…?”
“Then on what grounds does he say that his body has no soul?”
Rain Rover couldn’t answer.
Because even Rain Rover didn’t know.
He simply believed that Nadal himself said he was a soulless homunculus.
So did Nadal lie?
No, Nadal is not a liar.
“Then are you saying that Nadal is making a big mistake or misunderstanding something?”
“I think yes. Although I don’t know much about alchemy, one thing is certain: the body cannot move without the soul. That’s why alchemists can’t make homunculus.”
Amoris looked at Tigris and said.
“I ask him to see his face. I’ll see if there really is a soul or not.”
