Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 63
063 Tues – Trisha (2)
Trisha followed Irene gently.
“Wow, Irene-san, you are amazing! Three rings at that age! After all, is it because he is a disciple of Lord Tigris?!”
“·················ogue.”
“How do you wield that heavy sword with such a small body? Did you see it? Can’t even hold the yangban with one hand and lift it with both hands? strength is yours Good luck~!”
Irene stopped and looked at Trisha.
Trisha was looking at Irene with a smirk.
Rather than the eyes of a conspirator with a serpent in his head, he felt more like an aunt at a fruit shop.
Whatever happened, it was clear that he was hiding his true feelings.
“What do you want?”
“Ah, you’re a style that likes to get straight to the point! I’m···”
“If you are asking me to meet Master, I will give you an answer in advance. no.”
“Ah, you’re stubborn. I think it’s a pumpkin. Ah, this was out of fashion 600 years ago.”
Irene sighed and walked again.
Trisha followed after Irene.
“Can’t it really be less than 30 minutes?”
“Master is not someone you can meet.”
“Really! I have a question for you. Can’t it be ten minutes?”
Irene said firmly.
“no. Trisha.”
“Really, really?”
“yes. Not really.”
If it was a person who could be separated by force, it was separated earlier.
Although she looks very light on the outside, Irene could not fathom Trisha’s level.
If you are someone who can hide your momentum so that Irene does not notice, it means that you are at least a four-ring swordsman or a high-level wizard.
He couldn’t understand why a strong man who could receive knighthood at once even if he went naked to the lords spread across the empire was wandering around in such shabby clothes.
As Irene continued to ignore Trisha’s words, Trisha stopped.
When I looked back for a moment thinking that I had finally given up, Trisha’s expression was unusual.
It was as if he was prepared for something.
“I really didn’t mean to do this.”
Trisha pulled out a long curved sword from her subspace pocket.
It was a ‘curved sword’ that was mainly used by warriors in the Godiva Desert.
A jewel reminiscent of a red fire was embedded in the center of the guard on the curved road, and the sharp purple blade of the sword made Irene’s spine shiver.
“What are you doing now?”
“Irene is bad. I didn’t mean to do this.”
Irene grabbed the long sword she was carrying as an emergency.
Citizens walking down the street were also frightened by the unexpected turn and fell.
Trisha slowly swung her curved sword.
Irene pulled out her long sword halfway.
However, the sword did not fly.
The recurve sword blazed with a scarlet light as if oil had been applied to the blade, and a round ball of fire fell to the floor without a hitch.
“···········?”
As the fireball fell so trivially, Irene looked at the fireball and Trisha alternately to see what she was doing.
Trisha shoved the recurvet into her subspace pocket and reached out towards the fireball.
The fireball turned into a red fox when Trisha touched it.
The red fox rubbed her body against Trisha’s hand and plunged into her broad chest.
“Are you okay?”
-Kyareung~
I thought it would be hot because her hair was made of flame, but Trisha’s clothes or long hair didn’t burn as it wasn’t as hot as I thought it would be.
Trisha stroked Meme’s hair and her eyes twinkled.
“If you introduce Sir Tigris, I will give you a special chance to hold our cute Meme. This is not a very common opportunity.”
Irene’s heart was loose.
“…what are we going to do with this now?”
“Aren’t our Meme cute? Meme looks hot, but it’s very warm. How comfortable it is to sleep in a hug in a cold desert.”
– Nope!
Flames flowed from the fox’s mouth.
“how about it? Don’t you want to hug me?”
Irene felt like an idiot.
Irene put the half-drawn long sword back into its sheath.
“It’s done.”
“Miss, this isn’t it! Because this is not a very common opportunity!”
In the end, Irene arrived in front of the Norbert Tower with Trisha on her back.
The front of the Norbert Tower was very clean.
It used to be full of reporters, but it was invisible except for customers in department stores and restaurants.
For the safety of Tigris, the emperor strictly prohibited the entry of reporters, and there was a news guide that Tigris-related articles could be exported after obtaining permission from the imperial family.
Of course, the paparazzi were still riding, but this was tolerable.
Charlotte said, with this kind of popularity, the paparazzi are like taxes?
Irene ignored the paparazzi and headed straight for the elevator.
“Hey, this is the Norbert Tower. It’s huge! Irene.”
Trisha also headed to the elevator as if they were a party.
However, two guards guarding the security fence in front of the elevator blocked the way.
“Only authorized persons may enter.”
“…and it doesn’t work either.”
Trisha glanced at the cage and the man.
At first glance, the iron bars looked as if they had been magically treated, and there was even a warning sign ‘Beware of electricity’ to make sure that electricity would flow if touched by an unauthorized person.
The guards looked like regular guards, but from Trisha’s point of view, these two men were not normal guards.
All were four-star knights.
He seemed to come from the same secret bodyguards who were still staring at Trisha with a sting in the back of his head.
It was clear that the moment Trisha tried to cheat, force action would be taken immediately.
Trisha took a step back.
‘I really didn’t want to use this method.’
Trisha decided to make an offer that Irene could never refuse.
“Mr. Irene! Don’t you want to retrieve the Dragon Blood Sword?”
Stand tall!
Irene’s steps stopped.
The eyes of the guards and the secret guards who were hiding and watching Trisha were also dyed with life.
“What did you say now?”
“It’s a dragon blood sword. I’m talking about the relics of the dragon blood constellation.”
As Irene tried to approach Trisha, the guard opened his mouth.
“Mr. Irene. We will contact you after checking. First at home…”
“no. I will listen.”
Irene’s expression was as cold as a deep winter’s wind.
Knowing that Irene could not be stopped, the guards took a step back.
Irene looked at Trisha and said.
“Do you know the location of the Dragon Blood Sword?”
Trisha stroked Meme with a relaxed expression.
Until a little while ago, the eyes were like those of an old-fashioned aunt, now they are the eyes of a seasoned merchant.
“You don’t seem to know me very well, but I’m a pretty famous adventurer with the nickname ‘Hallows Hunter’. It is no exaggeration to say that there are no holy relics in this world that I cannot find.”
“Then you don’t know where the Dragon Blood Sword is now.”
“But if you give me one day, I will know right away. whether it exists in the present world or not. And if it exists in this world, it’s all about where it is. If you introduce Sir Tigris, I’ll let you know if the Dragon Blood Sword exists or not within today. If you are in this world, I will let you know where it is.”
“Can you tell me how it is and what it is not?”
“It’s a trade secret, so it’s difficult to tell.”
Where did the former pleading figure went, Trisha’s eyes were so confident.
It was like saying, ‘Can you turn this down?’
I didn’t like that look so much, I told him to turn it off right away, and I wanted to ride the elevator up, but… it’s a dragon blood sword.
A sword with a greater meaning as the sword his father used than as a symbol of the Welf family.
The Dragon Blood Sword was the treasure Irene wanted to have even if she gave her everything.
“that···.”
Irene’s mouth, which was about to answer that she would know right away, hardened for a moment.
‘You can’t do this.’
If Irene asks to meet Trisha once, Tigris will surely listen.
However, Irene received countless favors from Tigris.
Without Tigris during the duel with Roy, Irene would have died without Tigris, and without Tigris’ help, the Welf family wouldn’t even have a chance to be re-established.
That is the relationship between a teacher and a disciple, but there is a degree to it.
Even thinking about how to repay this favor, he was so angry at his own weakness that he was trying to lean on Tigris again when there was not enough.
Irene looked at Trisha and said.
“I will decline the offer.”
“uh? to?”
Trisha’s expression darkened, not knowing that Irene would reject this offer.
“Yes? why? I will tell you the location of the dragon blood sword.”
“Because I cannot make such a difficult request to Master. The problem with the hemolysis sword is my problem, so I will take care of it. So go.”
“······her.”
Trisha looked at Irene with a surprised expression.
When he said that he would clearly tell the location of the dragon blood sword, he showed a desperate look as if he would pull out his heart.
However, I don’t know what changed in her heart, but Irene’s eyes turned cold and she turned down Trisha’s offer.
Usually, when it comes to the relationship between a teacher and a disciple, it is said that it is a new parent-child relationship, and the teacher gives a lot to the child one-sidedly.
It provides not only swordsmanship knowledge, but also all financial support until the student grows up properly.
So, introducing Trisha to Tigris is nothing to Irene.
However, when the dragon blood sword was eaten in the middle, Irene felt the burden again and gave up the dragon blood sword.
‘…it doesn’t seem like a simple relationship between a teacher and a disciple.’
Although Irene’s personality may have an unconditional dislike of receiving it, Irene seemed to think of Tigris as more than a teacher.
Trisha has now decided to admit her failure.
Too hastily, he approached like roasting beans in a lightning bolt.
After thoroughly examining Irene’s personality and type, she should have attacked it slowly.
Trisha counter-summoned Meme.
“I think I asked too hastily.”
Trisha bowed her head slightly to Irene.
“sorry. I know that the Dragon Blood Sword is a sword that has some meaning to Irene, but I also just ran out of words in a rush.”
The attitude of apologizing and the voice and eyes were very serious.
That didn’t mean he didn’t look sloppy.
“I accept apologies.”
“A mere apology is of no use. Instead, I will inform you of the location of the dragon blood sword that Irene was looking for.”
Trisha did not want to end her relationship with Irene here.
It was decided to leave room for access to Tigris, giving Irene a natural reason to contact her.
“Don’t try to win my favor like that.”
Although it was a short time, Trisha understood Irene’s personality at once.
Irene was the type of person who would not receive anything if it was given for free, but would accept it if it was traded in an equal position.
“a. Of course, it’s not free. I’m an adventurer, so I’ll take the quest.”
Irene was a little skeptical, but Trisha came out so politely and told me that she would give information in a neat request format, so I decided to listen.
“How much is the deposit?”
Trisha pretended to think for a moment, then opened her mouth.
“Well… I originally started with 10 gold…. I don’t know! For Irene-san, I’ll do it for 5 gold.”
“·················ogue.”
Trisha was a character that was hard to hate.
Sometimes he was rude, then suddenly he became serious, and this time his mouth turned into a light trade.
I couldn’t figure out what the hell Trisha really was.
“As those of you who know me know, this is a really great sale. I never do laundry in the first place. And the moment I return to the Adventurer’s Guild, will the quests be pushed back this much? However, Irene’s request will be handled first and foremost. For just 3 gold!”
Trisha had a talent for enchanting people with her words.
Irene came to her senses and opened her mouth.
“… didn’t I just say 5 gold?”
“Irene was so pretty, I cut 2 gold for her service. uh? Wait a minute, I just cut another one. The blank expression you just made is so cute, especially with 2 gold…”
“What are you doing here?”
Irene and Trisha turned their heads at the sudden voice next to them.
It was Tigris.
“uh?! uh?”
Trisha opened her mouth when she saw Tigris.
Because I never imagined that we would meet here like this.
“Irene your guest?”
“no. no…”
“It is such an honor to meet you, Sir Tigris! My name is Trisha Wood!”
Trisha couldn’t just let go of this heaven-given chance.
Trisha started her PR like a rapid-fire cannon with her eyes twinkling.
“Undeservedly, she has the nickname of a relic hunter, and she is an attractive female adventurer with a pretty body and a smile just looking at her face! Really, if you have a little time, can you talk a little bit? Of course, as an added bonus, I’ll also tell you a fun story about my adventures! The Age of the Demon King, the Age of Witches, the Age of Giants, and the Age of Dragons, as I went through the ordeal of the constellation…”
“Stop it.”
“Yep!”
Trisha kept her mouth shut, but it was still loud.
Tigris glanced at Trisha’s wrist and looked into her eyes.
Trisha covered her wrist involuntarily when Tigris suddenly glanced at her.
There was nothing on Trisha’s wrist, but Tigris seemed to see through something Trisha was hiding.
“Follow me. I was just looking for it.”
“···yes? me?”
“yes.”
Tigris doesn’t know much about Trisha.
He only knew that he was a high-level adventurer who saved Rakan when he was imprisoned in the ordeal of the constellation, and that he was the only human from the beast liberation group ‘Liber’.
But seeing it in person today, that wasn’t all.
Trisha was a genius who completed 5 rings in her mid-20s.
‘And wrist… First of all, I’m not sure, so I’ll go to the library and take a quick look at the book.’
Trisha said as she got into the elevator.
“But since I’m a commoner, you can talk nonsense.”
“Let’s talk separately in the library.”
Trisha covered her wrist as she glanced at Tigris with a meaningful expression.
* * *
Trisha sat on the sofa in the living room and waited for a while, tasting tea and cookies.
“Lord Tigris is asking you to come into the study.”
“Ah yes. By the way, these cookies are really good.”
“ah. really? thank you.”
“So Lenny? Did Lenny bake it? Sir Tigris is truly blessed. I have a user who can bake such delicious cookies under me.”
Lenny’s ears burned red at Trisha’s praise.
“Hehe···. thank you I’ll give you some money when you go out.”
“ah? really? thank you!”
Irene, who was staring at it softly, sighed a little.
‘If she had a mouth, she wouldn’t starve to death for the rest of her life.’
Lenny immediately led him to Tigris’ study.
“Then I’ll just go.”
Lenny politely stepped back, closed the study door and left.
Trisha quickly glanced through the study.
Tigris’ study was like a small library, with a huge number of books.
“Do you have a lot of books?”
“Recently, I have taken on a hobby.”
“I really enjoy reading books. But you have collected a lot of different books.”
From history books to magazines, novels, and philosophical books, I was stuck in all genres and studies.
However, there was a bookshelf that caught Trisha’s attention.
In Tigris’s study, who likes to look neat and tidy, there was a bookshelf that was plugged into a medium heater in no order.
Even the bottom column was only filled to the middle.
Trisha immediately understood the meaning of that bookshelf.
‘I put them in the order they were read.’
Trisha glanced through the titles of the books on the bookshelf and opened her mouth.
“Are you interested in the constellation? Are all the recent readings related to the constellations and travel journals?”
“There was something I was interested in.”
Trisha continued to scan the bookshelves, avoiding Tigris’ gaze.
“How long are you going to be respectful by the way? You can just say it comfortably. I am a commoner, and Sir Tigris is a nobleman.”
“Are you looking for this book?”
Trisha’s pupils widened slightly when she saw the book on Tigris’ desk.
The title of the book was [The Bloodline and History of the Godiva Desert Tribe].
Trisha swallowed her saliva.
“…because I’m a herpes, did you bring out the book?”
“You’re not just a herpes.”
Tigris opened the book.
“This book describes the characteristics of the Godiva royalty, or, more precisely, the family of the Hamazar tribe.”
Tigris read the part of the book.
[The people of the Hamazar family have dark hair, copper-colored skin, and their eyes are not red, unlike other tribes, but light purple.]
Tigris glanced at Trisha’s expression.
The smirk on his face disappeared and he hardened.
“…the genetic traits of the Hamazar family are very common, except for their purple pupils. And purple eyes are not unique to the Hamazar family.”
“
you’re right. However, it is written that there is a special star tattoo that can only be performed by the Hamazar royal family.”
Tigris looked at Trisha’s right wrist.
On the surface, it was just an ordinary wrist, but a strange aura was springing up around that wrist.
like an auror ring.
“…if you take the shichimi off, it doesn’t make any sense.”
Trisha took off the plain silver ring that was on the index finger of her right hand.
Then, on his right wrist, five small stars that looked like a fashion tattoo were revealed.
That was the symbol of the Hamazar family and the symbol of the Hamazar family who hunted the flame dragon ‘Taikes’, the ‘Red Blessing Star’.
Tigris put down the book and expressed the example of a knight to the royal family of another country.
It was the etiquette of not bending the waist, but only slightly bowing the head and placing the right hand on the left chest.
“It is an honor to meet the Clan of the Red Desert.”
Trisha’s expression hardened.
