Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 80
080 – Security (5)
Trisha checked the man’s face.
One of the kinsmen of the Marquis of Baros, whom Tigris warned him to beware of, was that one.
His name is Usher de Baros.
He was the second son of the Marquis Baros and his wife.
Unlike Marquis Baros, who is a mage of the 6th circle, and Isaac, who became a mage of the 4th circle at the age of 29, he was not able to enter the Imperial University because of his lack of talent for magic.
A wand with a sapphire imbued with magical power in such a theme.
It was like a pearl necklace around a pig’s neck.
“Are you telling me that I came in by mistake?”
Trisha hurriedly knelt down on one knee as if she had now seen the red hawk symbol.
“Absolutely not.”
Trisha lied casually.
Acting like this wasn’t a big deal for Trisha.
Usher drank the bottle of wine as if he liked his obedient attitude, and then grinned.
“Raise your head.”
Trisha tilted her head slightly.
Usher’s eyes scanned Trisha’s body and face.
Trisha was annoyed for a moment at the crawling eyes of an insect, but she endured it.
First of all, because the mission was top priority.
“Hmm······. He doesn’t look like a mercenary, his body isn’t bad, but he has a lot of scars on his face.”
Usher opened her mouth to criticize Trisha.
“Well, among mercenaries, it must be difficult to find a year like this. got interested Follow me.”
Usher headed to the second floor to follow, and Trisha gave a poopy expression.
‘Damn, I got into trouble.’
As if he was a mercenary hired by Marquis Baros, he tried to infiltrate and gather information, but if he had known he would get involved in such a troublesome thing, he would have used the Silver Myo’s cloak.
‘If you run away, you can just run away…’
Trisha decided to get more information from Usher when this happened.
Usher was the second son of the House of Marquis Baros, and seemed to have taken on the role of commanding the mercenaries on the first floor.
If Usher knew more than the mercenaries knew, he wouldn’t know.
“Yes. All right.”
Trisha followed Usher up to the second floor without saying a word.
The knights and wizards looked at Trisha, pretending to be drunk.
It would be to check whether Trisha is a dangerous person or not.
‘The level is all low.’
How high is the level of knights who follow Usher, who is drunk and light-hearted?
From Trisha’s point of view, these guys were at best 3 stars, and the best ones were 4 stars.
The level of the other wizards also seemed to have reached the end of 3 or 4 circles.
If Trisha made up her mind and hid her momentum, she could have made her feel an aura.
Eventually, the wizards and knights turned their eyes to see if they had lost interest and started talking among themselves.
Trisha seemed to think that Usher wouldn’t be a threat.
Usher headed to the biggest, plush sofa, where there were two women in sassy dresses.
From the outside, it was highly likely that she was a bar woman who specialized in nobles.
“Stay away.”
One of the two paid attention to Usher’s words and left.
Usher sat down in the middle of the sofa and said,
“Come here, sit down and pour your drink.”
Trisha had a fever for a moment, but she had already come this far and had to do something strange.
However, it was an absolute specification to be dragged around without initiative.
Trisha picked up the most poisonous spirit of ‘Dragon Breath’ among the drinks on the table.
“I’m sorry, but I’m too nervous, but I’ll paint some alcohol on top first.”
Then he poured all the dragon breath into his mouth.
gulp- gulp- gulp-
Dragon Breath is usually impossible to drink straight like that, and it was common to eat it on the rock or make it into a cocktail.
But you drink the whole bottle.
Usher’s scoundrels around them raised their eyebrows as they felt their throats burn.
“Pooh!”
Trisha handed the empty bottle as if tossing it to the waiter who was waiting right next to him.
“One more bottle of the same.”
Usher burst out laughing at Trisha’s hot look.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen a woman pouring out all that strong alcohol.”
“If I were an ordinary woman, would I have been acting like a mercenary?”
“I think so.”
Trisha took the dragon’s breath from the waiter and smashed the bottle head off with the blade of her hand.
The people sitting at the same table and Usher stared blankly at the same skill as the feat.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know the name of Halkis because it’s my first time playing Halkis. May I know what your name is?”
“It’s Usher de Baros.”
“okay. My name is Nina. There is no last name, just call me Nina.”
Trisha used to pour Dragon Breath into the glass right in front of Usher and pour it.
“Then it’s a relationship that we met like this, so shall we have a cup of tea? Usher, Confucius?”
“good.”
Usher drank the venom from Trisha’s distribution at once.
“Cool!”
Usuh also likes to drink, but it was the first time drinking Dragon Breath from a glass, so I heard a lot of sarcasm.
Either way, Trisha got up and poured the Dragon Breath over to those sitting at the same table.
gulp-
They were nervous as they looked at the full dragon breath in front of them.
Usso drank it all at once, but it was too late to stop drinking it.
“Cool! Come on, don’t drink! It’s been a while since I’ve met a pretty interesting person, don’t you?”
Usher laughed, pretending to be angry, trying to look like a man.
However, Usher’s expression was not so good for anyone to see.
It looked like he was going to do an overtime right away.
“What are you doing, don’t drink.”
Trisha drank not a single drop of the Dragon Breath left in the bottle.
Seeing that, Usher and the knights looked at Trisha blankly.
“You wouldn’t do something that even mercenaries wouldn’t do, would you?”
The knights looked at each other at the charisma that flowed from Trisha’s body and eventually drank alcohol.
“Uh-huh…”
Some wizards couldn’t finish their drink and put down their glasses, so Usher noticed.
There is nothing more disgraceful than being looked down upon by a mercenary.
In the end, they couldn’t win over Usher’s eyes and forcibly drank it all.
“Five more bottles of the same thing.”
But everyone at the table trembled at Trisha’s words.
Trisha was going to make these guys crawl on all fours today.
* * *
As the drinks flowed, no one was standing properly at the table except for Trisha.
‘I’m not taking this at all.’
After becoming a six-star knight, he did not get drunk no matter how much he drank.
This was because the Auror automatically disassembled any poison or alcohol that was harmful to the body or clouded the mind.
But Trisha said, pretending to be drunk and messing with Usher’s head.
“hey. Usher.”
As the saying goes, the king of a party is a drinker, the queen of this party was Trisha.
“····································································································································································································································································································· Why.
“We’re on palm time. Are you drunk?”
“no! no! I didn’t get drunk…”
“Then have another drink.”
Trisha handed the dragon breath into a straight glass.
Usher gulped and stared blankly at the glass.
“Aren’t you drinking?”
“·················ogue.”
In the end, Usher drank straight to pretend to be a strong man, but shed almost half of it.
It certainly seemed to taste good.
“What should I do if I eat this while it is already dripping? You decided to run until the end of the day.”
“It’s like that…. I decided to run to the end…”
Now, it seemed like it was time to crack this guy’s fat belly and get some information.
Trisha said, holding Usher by the back of the head.
“Usher. You decided not to lie to your sister, did you?”
“uh······. uh? sister······? I don’t have a sister, huh?”
“We decided to be each other’s older sisters. I do not remember?”
“Is that so…? right. right. Did I? Heh heh…”
Usher was completely savored, and the knights at the other tables burst into laughter as they looked at Usher.
On the contrary, it seemed better when they could drink alcohol comfortably without even noticing Usher.
That’s why it was said that Usher was a bastard that wasn’t well-received among his vassals.
Trisha whispered into Usher’s ear.
“Are all the mercenaries on the first floor over there?”
“Mercenaries? First floor? Oh right. uh. I’ve been called Damo until today, isn’t it?”
“I see. So when are we going to squash these beasts?”
Usher made a long, brooding expression and tilted her head.
“ok······? Shout out the beast people…? We didn’t gather to hunt the beast people…?”
Trisha tilted her head, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
“what. Then why are we here?”
“We came here because we were told to stop the beasts when they run like crazy dogs…?”
“You say the beasts are running? who?”
“Who is who? permanent residents and knights. What······. Oh, my sister might have known that. You came here knowing you were going to have a drink, but were you disappointed? uh uh huh. It’s okay, I’ll give you a lot of money. I only have that…”
Usher’s words seemed to be true.
But I didn’t quite understand.
For what reason do the beasts kill the permanent residents?
“For what reason are the beasts attacking?”
“I don’t know. I just heard Because my father said he couldn’t trust the beast people, so he gathered mercenaries. shit······. I asked for more details, but my father favored only Isaac hyung… is not it? Now that I trust you too, did you tell me to gather mercenaries? Heh heh heh…”
Trisha had been told that the mercenaries and assassins were trying to kill Captain Teho and the Beasts.
But conversely, you gathered mercenaries to protect them from the beasts?
Those expensive veteran mercenaries?
Although the Marquis of Baros was said to have a lot of money, he was not the type of person who would run such a loss-making business.
“You really don’t know anything else?”
“I don’t know~ Isaac hyung knows everything. I’m just telling Dad not to drink too much today and take good care of the mercenaries… Ah, but I think I drank too much…?”
“Okay then, what about the Paladins and Priests? Or are there no Gillion Kingdom guys?”
“Ah~ Priests of the Lux Church did come……. Well, I heard that you had come to volunteer work, but it seemed that my father was paying a lot of attention to it…”
“How many priests have come?”
“I don’t know······. Almost 10 people? But noona, please go to the bathroom……”
thud!
In the end, Usher banged his head on the table and fainted.
With that or not, Trisha thought with a serious expression on her face.
‘Something is tight.’
The Empire knows that the Marquis of Baros and the Kingdom of Gillion are targeting the Beasts.
However, after listening to Usher’s words, Baros’s late arrivals knew that the Beasts were targeting people on the contrary.
It was not known where the information was wrong, but it was important to inform Tigris of this fact.
Trisha got up.
“Then I will go now. Prince Usher. I was supposed to run until the end of the day, but he died first, so I’m leaving first.”
The knights and wizards stared blankly at Trisha, wondering if it was surprising that they did not stagger even after drinking so much alcohol.
The drinking queen left, leaving behind a strong alcohol smell.

Levis sat facing each other in the office of the Marquis Baros.
Levis was wearing a white robe because he had recently disguised himself as a priest who had volunteered in the Marquis of Baros.
Levis said, taking a sip of tea.
“Vale, what’s going on with what you said?”
“I haven’t caught anything yet.”
Baros secretly leaked information about gathering mercenaries and assassins from a month ago.
There was one reason for this information to be leaked.
This was to get the Marquis of Baros justification to attack Captain Tejo.
“Have you ever heard of a trap?”
“It doesn’t seem like that. I heard that Becky’s mercenaries were caught while traveling by train. I think he was trying to get our reaction by touching the Becky mercenaries outside of my sphere of influence.”
It was painful to lose Becky’s mercenaries, but there was one thing I knew.
It was a story that they did not clearly know what the Marquis Baros intended to attract mercenaries and assassins.
Baros gulped down the drink.
“shit······. I never dreamed that I would be able to see the Emperor and the Beasts.”
If four months ago, the chieftain of the beauties had said that he would come to Victoria, he would have just moved and killed them without noticing the imperial family or other nobles.
It’s just a reason, because you can make it up later.
But now, if he moved recklessly, the neck of Marquis Baros could be blown away.
As the Chimera Lab case, the death of Count Lucas, and rumors of their engagement to Rain Rover and Tigris spread, the imperial authority was at its peak in Lucet’s history.
It was even growing.
Is it against the will of the Lucet family in this situation?
It was no different than giving the nobles under the command of the Marquis Baros an excuse to turn their backs on them.
“You leeches like leeches.”
Leeches meant the heads of 28 families under the Marquis of Baros.
The heads of the 28 families were preparing to change the line to the imperial court, watching the marquis of Baros.
He realized that the era of the Marquis Baros had ended and the era of centralized power had begun, just like in the Pax Empire.
Levis took a sip of his tea and opened his mouth.
“What are you going to do if things don’t go as planned?”
“Unbeknownst to the Inquisitors, the beasts are bound to fall into the trap I dug.”
“What is the rationale for that?”
“Because I have been leaking information about two young animals since a few days ago. They will have no choice but to attack Halkis to save those youngsters.”
Unlike humans, beasts lack patience and are faithful to their instincts.
No one can control their instincts, unless they are old like Captain Teho or have received the ‘Tattoo of Wisdom’ among the effects of ‘Masaray’s Bone Needle’.
They were absolutely not the ones who would turn around in a ferocious way in front of the opportunity to recover the young Su-in.
‘The Marquis Baros put everything here.’
Marquis Baros already knew that the relationship with the imperial family could not be fixed and that he had no choice but to join hands with the Gillion Kingdom and the Lux Church.
Marquis Baros was following the same procedure as Count Vinsmoke.
Now he has no one to rely on but Levis.
Levis liked it, but felt uncomfortable.
It’s Count Vinsmoke. It’s far from the Kingdom of Gillion, and it’s been a while since I’ve invested money and effort, so I just threw it away, but if I lose Marquis Baros, I lose an important road to the Lucet Empire.
“What if it is revealed that you threatened the young Su-in first?”
The Marquis Baros snorted.
“This is Halkis, not Victoria. The only reporters in the Halkis area are 8-year-olds who dictate what comes out of my mouth. Dull commoners and nobles like leeches are easy to manage because they only trust information in newspapers.”
Baros thought he had shown all his hands.
Now it was Levi’s turn.
“So, Levis, what are you going to do?”
“Veil You come out so aggressively, so I have to be active too. I will give you a cause to stop Captain Teho, whether they stain the bait you released or not.”
“What? Is that possible?”
Levis said with a vicious smile.
“Because we just have to make the beasts attack ordinary citizens in reverse.”
“Are you going to use ‘Wild Instinct’? You know I’ve heard that before, right?”
“Even if you know it, it’s also a spell that you can’t help but suffer. Even if we take action against him, he will not be able to stop him easily, since I will be in charge of performing the magic himself.”
When he heard that Levis was in charge of performing the magic himself, Marquis Baros laughed.
“I can finally hear your heavy ass. I knew everyone would be interested in Bergan.”
“Beergang will be taken care of by the Lux Church, so please turn off your nerves.”
Levis erased his smile and said with a serious look.
“Be more careful than that.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I heard that Tigris hadn’t been seen for more than a fortnight.”
“As far as I know, I have heard that the Emperor has been instructed by the Emperor to enter the Imperial Palace and educate the Golden Knights on behalf of Bergang. So you can’t see it?”
“But don’t the times overlap strangely? I mean, at this important time, you haven’t shown your face for a full month.”
“Are you saying that Tigris must have sneaked into the Marquis?”
“It doesn’t mean that there is no chance of that happening. So move carefully.”
There was life in the eyes of the Marquis Baros.
“No, I would rather have him come. Because when he comes, I will twist his hair on my own.”
“He is the one who killed Lucas with a single blow and killed the mutant. It won’t be as easy as you thought.”
Baros said, leaning his back against the backrest.
“You’ll find out when you see it.”

Trisha returned to the hotel exactly at 7 o’clock in the evening.
I could have come back earlier, but it took me a while to get around on purpose and change the polymorph magic to the way it was supposed to be.
Trisha opened the door and entered.
“·················ogue.”
wow- wow-
Trisha was doubting her own eyes.
It wasn’t very probable.
In front of Trisha’s eyes, two little boys with gray wolf ears and tails were sitting at the table, chewing and chewing meat in both hands.
His ears were pricked up and his tail was waving at how hard he ate.
Trisha said, looking at Tigris, who was sitting on a chair by the window, wiping her sword.
“When did we even have children?”
