Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 77
077 – Security (2)
The night before leaving for the Suin Autonomous Region.
Trisha headed straight for the dwarf’s forge.
bang!
“Emergency! Emergency!”
“Hey hey!”
Trisha took off her cloak and sprinted through the door, so Sora jumped like a startled cat and fell off the girders.
Sora rubbed her eyes and said.
“Tricia, have you been fired already? After only two weeks?”
“What are you talking about. Why am I fired?”
“I bet with the chunky uncle. Will you be fired in one month or two in two months. I bet in one month.”
“Okay. Anyway, where’s the chunky old man?”
“What are you doing this night? You’re sleeping in your room.”
Drooling-
The sliding door connected to the blacksmith opened and Maleus came out.
“Kuhm…were you fired in the end?”
“What are you talking about? Why am I being fired?”
“Then I’m glad. If you want to quit your job as a knight, quit after 3 weeks.”
“Oh my. It’s ridiculous, so I’ve got it. I don’t have time to chat, so I’ll get to the point quickly. I’m going to the jungle tomorrow.”
“The jungle? Why all of a sudden?”
“I don’t know the details yet. Tigris-nim told me to go to the jungle right away tomorrow. Even in secret.”
Trisha bought two train tickets with the fake ID that Tigris gave her, and even received an artifact with the 7th circle ‘Polymorph Magic’ and a teleport scroll that can be used in case of emergency.
“The imperial support for that level of support means, in a word, to go to the jungle to perform a top secret mission. Then there will be only one.”
“It must be Captain Teho’s secret escort mission.”
“Yes. I think so too.”
The Kingdom of Gillion and the Autonomous Region of the Beasts have decided to hold discussions related to the abduction of Chimeras and Beasts in the Kingdom of Victoria in July.
In the Suin Autonomous Region, Elder Teho decided to come as the representative, and in the Kingdom of Gillion, Prince Morgoth and Minister of Foreign Affairs Michael would come.
In fact, it’s a really big adventure for Teho to come to Victoria.
To get to Victorie from the jungle, you have to take a train from ‘Halkis’, the capital of the Marquis of Baros, and travel about a fortnight.
Of course, the kingdom will send golden knights and iron-blooded wizards, but from the point of view of Marquis Baros and Gillion, who will never like their relationship with the Beast Autonomous, they will try to prevent Teho from coming to Victory.
However, it is not possible to hold a meeting in the middle of the enemy line, the Marquis of Baros.
The meeting was decided to be held at the imperial palace in Victoria, the safest place, but he did not know how much trouble he would have to go through to get to the imperial palace.
“If the Empire directly dispatches Tigris, it means that they hope that the relationship with the beasts will improve.
“Isn’t that what you mean to think that the escort itself is more important than the political stance? Or, if you openly guard the Beast Autonomous Region, the Gillion Kingdom will notice it, so you can proceed with a secret guard ceremony.”
“Or maybe he was expecting you to come here, so he gave you a secret guard.”
Maleus thought that Tigris already knew Trisha’s identity.
Either there is a reason why you shouldn’t reveal that you know, or it’s just that the timing isn’t right.
Otherwise, there is no reason to bring Trisha to this secret escort.
“Do you really know that I am River?”
“I think I do. Maybe it’s because Tigris knows who I am, but doesn’t want to endanger us, just like the reason Tigris never came. Our information is top secret even within the Empire.”
Trisha sighed deeply.
“Since I became Tigris-sama’s article, I was expecting that my position would be very twisted… ··.”
Sora’s eyes twinkled.
“Are you going to quit then?”
“Oh, it’s okay! I can’t quit even if I’ve already tried to quit.”
Trisha swallowed two red manacho and made six rings.
I couldn’t spit out what I ate, so I had to stay still and be a Tigris knight for 5 years.
“How does it feel to have 6 rings? Does the world look different?”
“Well, rather than getting stronger, it’s more relaxed. The amount of aurora has definitely increased, and with one more auror ring, you can fight in a variety of ways that you couldn’t do before.”
Sora said with twinkling eyes.
“If this is an opportunity, when should we fight? How long are you going to hold out this time? Will you hold out for 30 minutes?”
“Are you going to bet in 30 minutes? Then I’ll bet in 31 minutes.”
“Wow… that’s worse than the chunky uncle. As the amount of aurora has increased, the inside seems to have gotten narrower?”
“Cancel that word, Sora.”
When the two began to quarrel, Maleus coughed and cut off the conversation.
“Large! Then you must have your swords.”
“Well, that would be nice. Wasn’t it still under repair?”
“Still, I need to take care of my hands today. It’s not another mission, it’s a mission to escort Captain Teho.”
“Thank you for that.”
Maleus looked at the wall clock.
“What time do you leave tomorrow?”
“It’s the 10 a.m. train.”
“Hmm. Then, come by tomorrow at 7 am. In that time, I’ll repair even the blade part of the sword perfectly.”
“Oh! Thank you.”
Maleus sighed and said.
“So, if you’re going to get fired, wait two months and get fired.”
“Uncle! If you get fired after two months, it’s a draw!”
“Gorgeous…….. I bet it’ll hold up for two months unconditionally!”
“Wow, you’re changing your words!”
Trisha’s heart warmed because he knew that the reason Maleus was playing with puns, which he wasn’t even good at, was that he wanted Trisha to return safely.
Trisha said with a smirk.
“Then I’ll bet five years.”

next day.
Tigris opened his mouth after breakfast.
“Me and Trisha will be away from home for about a month from today.”
Everyone except Jane was startled by Tigris’ sudden remark.
“·········Yes? Why all of a sudden?”
“This is a secret mission that His Majesty the Emperor himself has given. It shouldn’t be known that I was originally on a confidential mission, but I’m just saying it because I think it’s good for you to know.”
“No, but still, so suddenly…”
“I also didn’t have time to say that I received it from His Majesty the Emperor yesterday.”
Lenny said smirking.
“Then what should I prepare…….. Oh! First of all, clothes….”
“All supplies and funds, including clothes, were provided by the Empire, so there is no need to take them separately.”
Linia asked carefully.
“We shouldn’t be involved in this mission, right?”
“I understand you want to help, but this mission is not up to you.”
At those words, Linia looked at Tigris with worried eyes.
“Then you mean it’s that dangerous?”
“Momentary judgment and determination are more important than risk. I’m sorry, but I won’t take any more questions related to this mission. Linia.”
“······I’m sorry.”
Charlotte said, holding Linia’s trembling hand carefully.
“Then what do we do? Can I do personal training in this penthouse?”
“No, you guys will participate in the training process of the Golden Knights. You will receive training for elemental guards and vigilance.”
“If I get that training well, will I be able to go on a mission with Master in the future?”
Charlotte’s eyes were filled with earnestness.
Tigris understood Charlotte’s enthusiasm so well that he could not say that he was still lacking.
“It will depend on what kind of mission it is.”
At Tigris’ hopeful words, the eyes of the three people, including Charlotte, changed.
It seemed that he could feel the burning spirit that he could still feel from the young knights.
And their spirit and passion will be slashed through regular training with the Golden Knights.
All they have learned from Tigris so far is how to effectively subdue enemies using a sword.
But now they will learn how to solve any situation peacefully without wielding a sword.
Through that training, you will realize that the sword is the last resort to solve the problem, and you will become more mentally mature.
Tigris looked at Jane and said.
“And Jane. You too go to the Imperial Palace.”
“Eh?! Me too?”
“Lenny and Karen will go to the Palace of Spring together, so you should go, too. You’ve talked to the Imperial Palace separately, so it’s okay to go in, but other spirits are not allowed in. You won’t be able to enter in the first place.”

Jane said with a frown on her face.
“Uh… well. I see. I never dreamed that I would go to the Palace of Spring as a guardian spirit.”
Read at noblemtl.net
Jane had a strange feeling, as she had never dreamed of returning to the Palace of Springs after 170 years.
“Oh, then what will he do?”
That person meant Baiton.
Beyton has emerged as a key figure in the present-day Norbert family.
As Viscount Cale and the corrupt aristocrats who were mainly involved in the real estate business were all captured, it was safe to say that ‘The Norberd’ was in charge of most of the building construction and infrastructure construction in Victoria.
In this situation, if Baiton betrayed or threatened his life, it could act as a fatal blow to the Norbert family.
“Don’t let the spirits watch over you and don’t call the Imperial Palace separately. If there’s a problem, you’ll receive it one month later.”
“Okay.”
“And make sure that the spirits attached to me can also be removed.”
Then a purple lavender flower flew and swayed sadly.
It was like he was telling me not to let go.

Jane sighed and said.
“Leiana, you can’t go out to Victory anyway. Don’t complain.”
The lavender flower bowed her head sullenly and returned to the vase.
Now that the housekeeping is done, the only thing left to do is start.
Tigris looked at Trisha and said.
“Are you ready?”
“Yeah. You just have to leave right away.”
Trisha gives Tigris a ring-shaped artifact with the 7th circle polymorph enchantment.
Tigris said as he put the ring in his bosom.
“Then go straight to Victorie Station.”
* * *
After a while.
Tigris and Trisha arrived in Victoria.
Of course, he had been cast with polymorph magic that was not his true form.
Tigris turned into a young gentleman with a black fedora and a cane, and Trisha into a young woman in a thin summer coat.
Tricia hands the train ticket and ID to the crew.
“Are you the Potters?”
“Yes. That’s right. Ho ho ho.”
“Your first class has been confirmed. Have a nice trip.”
Trisha smiled and got her train ticket and ID back.
Tigris looked at Trisha with a puzzled look.
“Why are you darling?”
“············”.
Trisha spoke softly into Tigris’ ear.
“Relax your face. Why are you so terrifying?”
“…why are you a couple?”
“If the last name is the same, isn’t it a couple? So, did you order it as a couple travel package?”
“Don’t you usually think of siblings?”
“Oh, were we siblings? But our hair color is different.”
“…you didn’t change it?”
“I’m just going to go ahead and say that. That’s more fun.”
Tigris sighed as the flight attendant looked at him with a strange expression.
“Come on and ride.”
Tigris got on the train, and Trisha smiled and told the crew.
“I’m sorry. It looks like our darlings are a little tired. Is it because he was overworked yesterday?”
“·······Oh yes. I will close the door.”
“Thank you~”
The flight attendant closed the train door with a mischievous smile, and Tricia sat down on the bed.
The bed had rose petals drawn in the shape of a heart.
Trisha looked at the rose and smiled brightly.
“Oh, did I apply for the newlyweds package, not the couple travel package?”
Tigris didn’t say anything about it, because she recently learned that playing a prank like that was a way to relax Trisha in her own way.
Tigris sat down on a chair by the window.
Then he took out a fountain pen that could cast sound block magic and activated it.
“Sit down. I’ll explain our mission.”
“all right.”
Trisha wiped her mischievous smile and sat across from Tigris.
“Our mission is to guard the secret guard of the beast chief, Teho.”
“Well······.”
As expected, it was to protect Teho.
“Then, can we meet Teho and protect ourselves?”
“No, the direct protection will be taken by 36 golden knights, including Sir Miller, the deputy commander of the Golden Knights, and 12 wizards, including Sonya, the deputy commander of the Iron-Blood Magic Corps.”
“Then what can we do?”
“It’s risk-free.”
“Risk factor exclusion means….”
Tigris pulled out a sack of papers from his subspace pocket.
The documents contained personal information such as names and characteristics, along with a photograph of the person.
If all they had in common was that they were all criminals deserving of death, such as beast poachers, brokers, and assassins.
“According to the investigation conducted by the Inquisitors, it has been confirmed that at least 100 poachers, 12 teams of assassins under the direction of the Kingdom of Gillion, and other special forces of the Kingdom of Gillion are targeting Teho. tracking and excluding them.”
It seemed that he could now understand why Tigris had not brought Charlotte.
This mission inevitably had to get blood on my hands.
that too a lot.
“Do you kill all these people?”
“Killing is just a means. It’s important to keep them out of access to Teho.”
“Are you going to hand it over to the nearby police or guards?”
“Yeah. But you shouldn’t miss out on looking after your hands.”
Trisha nodded her head.
“I’m sure the construction division is clear.”
“Then don’t entrust me with this task now. Currently, the ‘Becky Mercenaries’ are riding in the 13th compartment of the 2nd class. They are all poachers, and after washing their status in Victoria, they are going down to the Marquis of Baros.”
“Identity laundering?”
“You don’t know anything about identity laundering?”
“Isn’t it strange to know that? It’s rare for a good adventurer like me to get involved with such a crime.”
“Then let me explain a little.”
There is only one way for mercenaries and adventurers to safely wash their identity.
It is to wash your identity through ‘Mr. Wood’ in the Gray Town of Victoria.
“Mr. Wood? Is that a person’s name?”
“He’s a pretty well-known identity launderer on this floor. Everyone said he would change his surname to Wood when he was laundered, so he called him Mr. Wood.”
“Oh, I’ve never heard of such a story.”
“It looks like you’ve only been hunting for holy relics.”
“Well, it’s not always like that. As you know, adventurers often go out of sight, don’t they?
Trisha covered her mouth and said.
“Ah. But you shouldn’t see me as that strange person. I must have harmed people for no reason. Because they were all people who wanted to kill me…”
“Okay, you don’t have to make excuses. I’m not that proud either.”
“…aren’t you proud?”
“That’s off topic, so we’ll talk about it later.”
Washing your identity through Mr. Wood is simple.
If you give the ID cards of the stolen or killed mercenaries or adventurers and 5 gold coins to Mr. Wood, Mr. Wood will take care of releasing the security magic on the ID card to create a new ID card.
“Oh my God, is identity laundering that easy?”
“It was deliberately made easy.”
“Yes? Why?”
It’s a confidential fact known only to the Inquisitor, but in fact, the identity launderer ‘Mr. Wood’ is an Inquisitor agent.
Record all the mercenaries and adventurers who wash their identity, classify the risk, and report it to the Inquisitor headquarters every month.
“It’s not enough to turn a blind eye to crime in the world, to commit a crime yourself…”
“If you don’t drill a hole for criminals in this way, identity launderers are born in strange places. Then it’s not easy to manage criminals.”
“Are you getting such advanced information as a bonus?”
“That’s it. It’s all thanks to ‘Mr. Wood’ that I got the personal information of the assassins who are targeting you.”
“If I get a chance later, I should say thank you.”
Trisha thought for a moment and then shook her head.
“By the way, is this information I can know? Isn’t it information that no one should know just by looking at it?”
“From the moment you became my knight, you are nothing.”
“·······Something is very heavy on my shoulders.”
“Do you want to get out of your feet right now?”
“No. Well, step out now. From the moment I became Tigris-sama’s knight, I was prepared to do many things like this.”
“What exactly is this?”
Trisha said with serious eyes.
“Killing non-humans.”
Tigris looked into Trisha’s eyes.
It was the eyes of a person who was determined.
However, even with these eyes, there were many people who collapsed when they actually went into action, so Tigris decided to try Trisha.
“Then I’ll leave them to you. Get rid of all of these trains until they reach the capital of the Marquis of Baros, as long as your identity is not exposed. The means and methods are left to your discretion.”
Trisha nodded her head.
“Yes, I understand.”
