Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 81

081 – Security (6)

As soon as Marquis Baros heard the news that the prisoner had been taken, he ran out of Halkis.

Then we headed to the secret dungeon located in the dark forest about 2km east of the Halkis estate.

Unlike other prisons, this secret dungeon was built to detain felons who started a civil war.

The reason for imprisoning the prisoners here was simple.

It was because the structure of the prison was easy to defend from attacks from the outside or the inside.

In particular, it was determined that a straight and narrow structure that could undermine the strength of the beasts who moved quickly would be advantageous in battle.

So, no matter how many beasts attacked, I thought that I would be able to defend until the Marquis Baros came, but that was a mistake.

“eww······.”

Dozens of knights, wizards, and guards were scattered outside the dungeon.

The Marquis Baros glanced at them coldly and entered the dungeon.

The front door of the dungeon was cut cleanly as if a sharp knife had cut a piece of paper.

‘It’s definitely not an ordinary skill.’

The main gate of this prison was made of black iron alloy, which is reputed to be hard, and the Marquis Baros himself had even put reinforcement magic on it.

‘It’s not magic, it’s a sword.’

I thought there would be no other swordsman who could cut through this iron gate with a single sword, except for Bergang.

The world was too wide.

The Marquis Baros decided not to go any further.

In that the iron gate was cut, it was meaningless to go further into it.

The Marquis Baros came out of the dungeon.

There was Isaac, the heir and eldest son of the family of the Marquis of Baros.

“Report what happened.”

Isaac lowered his head as if he had no face and said.

“···················································································································································· with a sword, and attack the dungeon.

The Marquis Baros doubted his ears.

“Only one?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

Isaac said, rubbing the back of his head, still tingling.

“My skills were extraordinary. Because Sir Stewart and Hollow didn’t even fight properly and were beaten up in no time.”

The Marquis Baros was absurd.

Sir Stewart was a 5-star knight, and Hollow was a 5th circle wizard, and he was the most skilled of the knights and wizards hired by the Marquis Baros family.

The two of them could not defeat the one monster and were suppressed.

How can you be so easily suppressed when your opponent is not even Bergang?

“Any other knights or guards?”

“Everyone was subdued in one shot. Besides, all the prisoners were released.”

Marquis Barros’s head was pounding.

Freed prisoners will come out and spread the word about the location of the Marquis Baros’ secret dungeon and that the prison was broken by just one man.

I have no idea how to fix this.

“Where did that f*cking bastard take Suin?”

“I don’t know that either. The knights who were monitoring the dungeon perimeter were the first to suffer…”

“Heh heh heh…”

The Marquis Baros was so absurd that he burst into laughter.

The Marquis Baros looked around.

Isaac, Sir Stewart, the knights in Hollowe, the guards and the wizards were all fine.

All of them said that touching the back of the head or temples caused them to be stunned in one shot.

It’s not about killing, it’s about suppressing them all at once.

Was there anyone among the beasts with such skills?

The Marquis Baros knew that there was no beast swordsman with such skills.

‘Then who the hell… wait a minute…’

The Marquis Baros remembered Levis’ words.

– I heard that Tigris hadn’t been seen for more than a fortnight.

“Tigris.”

“Yes?”

“Tigris is here.”

Tigris was the one who had blown away the six-star knight Lucas in just two hits.

The day that Lucas was blown away, the Marquis Baros was there.

Although the Marquis Baros didn’t know much about swordsmanship, he could tell that his skills were unusual.

A bastard can do such nonsensical things.

Whoops-!

Isaac flinched at the sound of Marquis Baros grinding his teeth.

“It’s him again.”

The Marquis Baros still jumps out of bed thinking of Tigris.

The Tigris Gnome was the main culprit that lowered the authority of the Marquis Baros to the bottom.

But how dare you sneak in from where you are and leave a nuisance?

Eventually, the anger gauge of the Marquis Baros broke through the critical point.

“Isaac, when the sun goes down tomorrow, send the mercenaries you hired as Theron.”

Theron was a small town 15 kilometers from the capital, Halkis.

Originally, they had planned to raid Captain Teho with Levis in that city, but they decided to change the order a little.

Let’s deal with the Tigris Gnome first.

“Yes? Are you talking already? There are still beasts…”

“Elder Tejo is not important. Tigris, this is a golden opportunity to kill that bastard that would be worthless even if he ripped it apart.”

Isaac hastily stopped the Marquis Baros.

“dismissal. Even if Tigris was real, it would be very difficult to kill him. Think of Earl Vinsmoke. His swordsmanship was unusual.”

“Earl Vinsmoke is a knight and I am a wizard. If you prepare thoroughly, you can kill even Bergang, not Tigris.”

Marquis Baros specializes in barrier magic.

Barrier magic specializes in defense and traps, among other magic.

The moment Tigris enters the magic barrier set by the Marquis Baros, he is almost dead.

“dismissal. Even if Tigris was killed, would the imperial family stay still? Please calm down.”

“When a nobleman is attacked, he must take revenge. That way you don’t look down on others.”

The Marquis Baros sprinted out through the woods.

Isaac followed in the footsteps of the Marquis Baros.

“This will inform the whole of the Empire that the House of Marquis Baros is not dead. Then those leeches will know where to stand.”

“father!”

“This is your boss, not your father! Call me sir!”

Isaac shrugged at the shouts of the Marquis Baros.

The Marquis Baros said with a sad blue look.

“Isaac. Please repeat the orders I gave you.”

The little boy clenched his fists and said.

“…tomorrow, when the sun goes down, we will send the mercenaries we hired to Theron.”

“You are still young. And I don’t know how to rebuild lost authority. Let’s learn from this job. Do you understand?”

“······Yes. All right.”

Baros got into the carriage waiting outside the forest.

“Then let’s go.”

Isaac bowed his head as he watched the departing Marquis Baros’ carriage.

There was nothing Isaac could do.

Because Isaac is now a soldier, not the heir of the Marquis Baros family.

I just had to do what I was ordered to do.

* * *

Trisha and two young Su-in came out of the bathroom.

I was squeamish until I ate, but when I came out after washing the room, the unique smell of milk filled the room.

Trisha spoke in the sign language used by the beauties.

＜Rami, Raon. come here＞

The two Suin names were Rami and Raon, with Rami being the older sister and Raon being the younger brother.

Rami and Raon sat silently on the bed and left Trisha’s hair.

Their clothes were so dirty that they couldn’t be washed and used, so they just put them in a space pocket, and instead took out two clean T-shirts that Trisha had used and put them on.

ha-am-

Raon yawned as if he was tired after eating and washing well.

＜Raon is sleepy…＞

＜Is Raon sleepy?＞

＜Yes. I’m sleepy…＞

＜Let’s dry your hair a little and go to sleep.＞

Rami asked Trisha carefully.

＜How many nights can we meet Mom and Dad?＞

＜Uh…＞

Even Trisha didn’t know for sure.

It was because he hadn’t had a proper conversation with Tigris yet.

Then, Tigris opened his mouth.

＜A week.＞

Rami and Raon’s eyes turned round.

＜Huh?! Can you speak our language too?＞

＜a little bit.＞

＜Wow! Wow!＞

Rami ran and stood in front of Tigris.

＜Thank you for saving Rami and Raon. I really, really, really wanted to say this.＞

Tigris remembered Rami and Raon trembling in the dark dungeon.

It was so pathetic that it was impossible to look at it with the compassionate eyes of T-Christ, who did not show emotion well.

Tigris unconsciously stroked Rami’s head.

＜Yes.＞

👌👌👌👌👌

The brothers and sisters were so exhausted that they immediately fell asleep as soon as they lay on the soft bed.

Trisha said, stroking the siblings’ heads.

“How did you save these children?”

“The Marquis of Baros deliberately released information that there were two brothers and sisters in the dungeon.”

“Why did you do that?”

“It must have been to provoke the beast people.”

Tigris passed on the information that Agent Inquisitor gave to Trisha.

“…So, the assassins and the mercenaries were gathered to provoke the beasts on purpose?”

“okay. The position of Marquis Baros was shaken so much that he had to find a cause to attack Captain Tejo.”

As the Chimera Lab Incident and the Count Lucas Incident broke out one after another, the noble families who followed the Marquis felt a great sense of crisis.

The reason they financed the Chimera Lab was to secure a spot when the Marquis Baros ascended to the throne later.

However, seeing with his own eyes that Lucas, who had had the same dream, turned into a monster that did not die, he seemed to realize just how dangerous the chimera experiment was.

So the noble families under Baros wanted to leave the Marquis and establish a connection with the imperial family.

“Attacking the Beasts in such a situation would give them a reason to abandon the Marquis Baros?”

“It’s like that. So, Marquis Baros provoked them in the hope that the prisoners would attack them first, and when that didn’t work, he took the siblings as bait.”

“No matter how you think about it, it’s strange. Does the Marquis of Baros need to push himself so hard?”

Trisha doesn’t know that Marquis Baros is behind Lota and Arpem, so she doesn’t know why the Marquis Baros is so pushy.

He handed over confidential data to the Kingdom of Gillion and conducted illegal chimera experiments on people and beasts, and is still financing Rota and Arphem.

The Marquis Baros had already made a decision from the moment he got involved with them.

Destroy the empire and become king.

or die yourself.

“The Marquis of Baros knows that he will soon die.”

“Is the Marquis Baros dying? why?”

“Your Majesty already has a cause to kill the Marquis Baros. It was just that the situation was not good both internally and externally for the immediate death of the emperor, so he did not move the military hastily. When he was ready, he would behead the Marquis of Baros.”

“Did the Marquis of Baros know that?”

“okay.”

“Then what if the Marquis Baros just left? Sending assassins or sending troops to kill Captain Teho.”

“Then it’s good on its own. If that happens, all the nobles under the command of the Marquis Baros will turn their backs on them.”

“I mean, I’m not saying I’m worried that Captain Teho might get hurt.”

“If the assassins in Halkis move, we can also go into the extermination operation.”

“You mean we have to deal with all the assassins before they arrive in front of Chief Teho?”

“right. That’s why we came here.”

The only thing I’m worried about is whether Rota and Arphem’s clan are moving.

There are three people to worry about right now.

Pelen, the slayer of pride.

Oslo the Sloth Slayer.

Lota’s Mouth Levis.

All three are free.

Pelen was set free after the chimera laboratory that the Marquis Baros had been supporting disappeared.

Oslo wants you to come out rather than just appearing in front of Tigris because you can just kill him, while Felen and Levis are a little more picky.

Felen is an 8th circle archmage and deals with electricity-based magic.

Not only can Pelen slam lightning bolts down through the window, but it can also distort the body’s electrical signals, so you’ll need to be well-equipped to counter it.

In the case of Levis, there is a ‘chain in the sky’, so he can cast a curse on him and kill him before he escapes, but due to his personality, he does not fight directly with the enemy.

If Tigris were Levis, he would use a magic that destroys the physical condition, such as casting a beast-exclusive magic such as ‘Wild Instinct’ or a magic that destroys the sense of equilibrium, and then attack with a spirit technique.

“Then what if the Marquis Baros, not the assassins, moved directly?”

“It is known that Marquis Baros’ barrier magic is great. If you dig a trap ahead of time and attack it, it would be dangerous. But don’t worry, there’s a way to fix it all.”

However, Tigris has experienced the barrier magic of the Marquis Baros many times and knows how to break it.

And he’s still a 6th circle wizard.

When he faced Marquis Baros before returning, he accepted the ‘Spear of Pride’ procedure and fought as a 7th circle wizard.

No matter how hard the Marquis Baros prepared for barrier magic, he could not stop the current Tigris.

Knock- Knock- Knock- Knock- Knock-

At that moment, a knock on the door was heard in a steady rhythm.

Trisha was a little nervous, but Tigris already knew what was outside that door.

Tigris opened the door after a while.

A small piece of paper was neatly folded under the door.

Tigris closed the door and went inside and read the note.

[Departure from Halkis to Theron around 18:45, Marquis of Baros.]

[Isaac, instruct the mercenaries and assassins to head to Theron tomorrow evening at 8pm.]

[The barrier magic casting is in progress between Theron, Marquis of Baros and Halkis Territory.]

Tigris read it all and lit a match and burned it.

“You were right, Trisha.”

The Marquis Baros seemed to have just made the decision to leave.
