Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 92
092 – Levis
Levis looked at Tigris with a blank expression.
Everything was in Tigris’ palm.
Tigris knew everything about Levis’s curse and the evil spirit chimeras.
“Ahhh!”
Levis moved his legs to run towards Tigris.
I couldn’t stand still like this.
I had to do something.
Either break the chains of heaven embedded in this heart, or kill Tigris.
Cheol Puduk-
Contrary to Levis’ spirit, his body collapsed without a pulse.
The chains of perforation that pierced the heart along with the spine prevented him from moving down his waist.
Even his arms did not move and his eyes began to close more and more.
Levis’ body was slowly dying.
Levis was heartbroken.
Usually, when the body dies, the soul leaves the body naturally.
However, Levi’s situation is different.
Since the soul itself was entangled in the chains of the heavens, it would be forced to remain contained in this dead body.
If the soul is forcibly bound to the dead body, consciousness is cut off and nothing can be done.
Because the soul itself cannot cast spirit magic or move the body.
In a word, it meant ‘a perfect soul seal’.
“Save me! I don’t need the others. Save me first!”
At Levis’ desperate command, the lunar eclipse knights and the black reapers who were fighting the golden knights and the iron-blooded wizards all looked at Tigris at once.
– Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Creepy choruses resounded from all directions, and they rushed towards Tigris like crazy.
“Stop it!”
Golden knights and iron-blooded wizards pursued and killed them, but lunar eclipse knights and black reapers rushed towards Tigris, whether limbs were severed or not.
A normal person would have to turn their eyes in fear.
But Tigris didn’t care and raised the Salamander’s sword.
The fire on the Salamander’s sword changes to blue instead of red, and a sentence of a new word used by spirit magicians is drawn on the sword.
[I will burn with blue wrath.]
Tigris’ original swordsmanship.
slaying evil spirits.
Type 7 Fire Hell.
Tigris drew his sword crosswise.
The sword was soft and slow, as if dancing, but the blue flames emanating from the sword were ferocious.
Whoops-!
Blue flames from the sword hit the lunar eclipse knights and the Black Reaper like a tidal wave.
– Kyaaaaaaaaa!
The lunar eclipse knights and the black reapers rolled around like moths with their wings on fire.
I tried to put out the fire on my body, and I bumped into a tree, rolled the ground, and quickly flew into the sky, but the fire did not go out.
Rather, the blue fire only mothed their bodies.
At the sight, the golden knights and the iron-blooded wizards who ran to help Tigris all stopped.
“What the hell is this?
“It’s not magic, but…”
Golden knights and iron-blooded wizards, who rarely experienced witchcraft, did not know, but Nemesis knew exactly.
“This is magic.”
This blue flame was a flame that worked as a magic spell.
So I didn’t understand.
A price must be paid when using magic.
The price means things that are precious to humans or indispensable in life, such as time, devotion, soul, and body.
Of course, just paying the price does not mean that the magic will be manifested.
Because it is manifested through a very complicated process such as a ritual, simply swinging a sword does not mean that magic can be manifested.
Of course, to minimize the cost of the magic, things such as shamanic relics and ingots are used, but I don’t think Tigris is a shaman who can use such magic tools.
But that blue flame is magic.
Even if the ritual was omitted, what did Tigris perform in exchange for magic?
Tigris took a deep breath.
‘There are still not enough Aurors.’
Evil spirit slash developed by Tigris is a combination of magic and swordsmanship.
The fundamental magic of this evil spirit slash is the ‘blue light wine’ that covers the entire fogwood.
Unlike other magic, this blue lamp’s sake burns with ‘mana’ as a medium.
Activating the spell itself is done through a fairly complex fortification, but the mana that maintains the blue flame is the mana scattered around the fog wood, so a unique mana wave was coming out of the blue lamp.
Tigris perfectly understood the principle of the blue lamp’s magic, and then combined that unique mana wave to create a unique swordsmanship called ‘evil spirit slash’ that cuts only evil spirits.
Of course, since slashing evil spirits is a swordsmanship that is one step closer to a type of magic, the price was absolutely necessary.
Tigris fixed the cost of this evil spirit slash to just one ‘Auror’, and because of that, a huge amount of Auror flowed out like an ebb.
‘I can’t even follow this.’
Even though Berghan already knew how Tigris’s evil spirit slash was made, he could not fully understand it.
This is because this swordsmanship is not a simple swordsmanship, but requires an understanding of the spirit.
Currently, only Tigris was the original technology that could be used.
Levis was surprised by the lunar eclipse knights and the black reapers who had been swallowed up by the blue flames, and was staring blankly at Tigris, forgetting the pain.
Tigris walked to Levis.
Levis trembled involuntarily at the fear of the unknown for the first time.
“I think it’s the first time I’ve seen you trembling.”
“Ahhh…”
Levis couldn’t even speak properly because his mouth was hardened.
In the face of the unknown fear of what Tigris might do to her, all she could do was tremble.
Tigris paid close attention to Levis as his body was dying.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen you this closely.”
Tigris has killed Levis’ body twice so far.
Once in Levis and Rota’s laboratory in the Forest of Mist, and once during the Great Invasion of Victory.
It was during the Norberd invasion that the soul was completely slaughtered.
Now Tigris can even kill Levis’ soul by beating Levis’s head with the image of amputation.
However, the memories that remain in Levis’ soul flow into Rota, allowing the research of the lunar eclipse knight and the black knight to continue, and Rota may be more wary of Tigris than necessary.
That’s not what Tigris wants.
Tigris hoped that the memories contained in Levis’ soul would not flow to Lota.
If so, there is only one way.
It is to tie Levis together with the chain of the sky in the land of mystery and seal it forever.
Even if Lota and Arphem’s family enter the mysterious land to find Levis’ body and soul, finding Levis in the mysterious land would be as good as finding a needle in the desert.
It would be rather good if Rota and Arphem’s family threw themselves at the feeble possibility.
Because they know how to destroy themselves.
“Hmm······.”
There was no other reason for Tigris to keep watching Levis’s body.
It was because he seemed to have seen the structure of Levis’s body somewhere.
There is no case in which one body and another body are identical except for twins.
However, Levis’ body was almost 90% identical to someone in Tigris’ memory.
As Tigris continued to silently stare at the dying body of Levis, Bergan approached him.
“Is your mind complicated? After all, I am going…”
“no. Not that.”
Tigris glanced at Nadal.
Nadal was observing Levis’s body one by one as if it were a work of art.
His face was full of ‘curiosity’.
Nadal seemed to have noticed too.
“Nadal, can we talk to each other for a moment?”
Nadal nodded without taking his eyes off Levis.
“All right.”
Tigris said to Bergang.
“Please, Levis.”
“I see.”
Tigris and Nadal moved to the corner separately.
Nadal performed sound block magic. .
Nadal seemed somewhat anticipating a conversation with Tigris.
Nadal went straight to the point.
“Did you know that Levis is a homunculus like me?”
“no. I had no idea.”
Levis’ body was surprisingly homunculus.
In other words, it is an artificially created body.
Tigris could not tell the difference between a homunculus and an ordinary human.
When I first saw Oslo, I didn’t even know it was a homunculus.
The reason Tigris was convinced that Levis’ body was a homunculus was that Nadal and Nadal’s physical condition matched perfectly.
From the location of the internal organs to the development of the musculature, all the nadals were removed.
The only difference was the skin and facial structure.
“I don’t know how to express this feeling. curious? interesting? ah.”
Nadal abruptly pulled out his prosthesis and revealed his face.
Tigris flinched for a moment at the bizarre appearance, but Nadal even smiled as if it was fun to look at his expression.
“It’s exciting.”
Tigris was somewhat complicated by Nadal’s words.
Tigris doesn’t know much about Nadal.
I know that he died for the Empire and Princess Rain Rover, but I don’t know what kind of human Nadal was normally.
So he had no idea how Nadal would change when he saw Levis.
“I want to dissect him right now. Then maybe there will be a way to fix my fragile skin.”
“·················ogue.”
Tigris’ worries were in vain.
I was worried that Nadal would betray the Empire or not, but it didn’t seem like he would turn into that kind of human.
It was a bit psycho, but the answer was Nadal-like, so Tigris was somewhat relieved.
“But the mission must come first. It’s important to be greedy.”
“…and I can give you the severed arm.”
“Five! Is that true? If so, thank you.”
Nadal thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“But it’s amazing. I’ve never really thought deeply about my past. Strictly speaking, there was no reason to care. But now, when I look at Levis, it suddenly appears.”
“I heard that your stepfather, Baron Margot de Asensio, brought it from the wizard’s lab.”
“Oh, I know that. Because I’ve read the expedition log. However, I did not personally visit the wizard’s lab or see the experimental items that came out of that lab. But I feel like we should do our own investigation.”
Nadal said, stroking his chin.
“This feeling of excitement is truly amazing. To move me when no one gave me orders. I think I’ve come to understand humans a little bit more.”
“Nadal, do you want to be human?”
“The answer is, ‘Should I do that?’ And physically, I’m perfectly human. It’s a unique way of thinking.”
“That’s not what I mean. The question is, do you want to feel human emotions?”
Nadal thought deeply and opened his mouth.
“It is a missing part for me, so I have a desire to fill it. In the past, I thought this dull feeling was good. Because torturing humans and making them spit out the truth is something that highly sensitive humans can never do.”
Nadal’s eyes were looking quite far away.
“But recently teaching Rakan makes me feel like ‘Margot’. I have no idea what that tickling feeling is, but what is certain is that my feelings are getting richer.”
“If such a change in feelings makes it impossible for me to torture others, it would be very detrimental to the Empire. Then I might not be able to keep the command that Margot gave me, ‘to protect the kingdom’. From that point of view, it may not be a very positive change.”
Nadal looked straight at Tigris and said.
“Sir Tigris, do you think my change is right or wrong?”
Nadal’s worries were very similar to those of Tigris.
Because of the rich emotions, I pondered and thought about things I hadn’t thought about in the past.

Just as he was hesitant to kill Morita because of the resentment in Tigris’ heart, he was worried that his conscience would be pierced by killing and hurting someone and his sword would become dull.
“Don’t think it will change.”
So, this answer is the answer to Nadal’s troubles and the answer to Tigris’ troubles.
“Let’s think of it as becoming more mature.”
Nadal smiled as if Tigris’ response was quite satisfactory.
“That’s the answer, Moonhyun Woo.”
* * *
Tigris took over the chains of heaven from Nemesis.
Although there was no signal in Levis’ body, it seemed that the chains of heaven did not come out of Levis’s heart, so it seemed that his soul was firmly bound.
‘I’m sorry.’
This chain of perforation can no longer be used because of Levis’s seal.
I’ve been using it quite well for the past few months, but it’s a little sad that I had to send it like this.
But since he didn’t know how to completely bind Levis’ soul to this body, there was no other way.
“Then I will close the lid.”
Levis’ body was placed in a square wooden coffin.
Tigris wrapped this coffin with a chain of perforations and secured it.
Now, all you have to do is take this and go to the land of mystery.
Bergang approached Tigris next to him.
“Lord Tigris, would you like to go yourself? As you know, the land of mystery can be dangerous, and if you do it wrong, it might eat up too much time.”
In the land of mystery, the concept of time and space is twisted.
For that reason, a day in the land of mystery can be a second or a month in the outside world.
And when you step into the land of mystery, you will surely encounter a ‘mystery phenomenon’ once.
It may reveal the future, the past, or a new world, not an extinction or a continent, but the important thing is that we age.
It wasn’t good for a knight whose body was everything because he was robbed of his physical age for at least 5 to 10 years.
“Still, I want to finish it myself.”
Of course, you could leave it to the Golden Knights or the Iron-Blood Wizards, but Tigris seemed to feel more comfortable if he had to deal with Levis himself.
Berggan knew the relationship between Tigris and Levis very well, so he did not take any further.
“I understand. Go carefully.”
“If anything happens to me, I ask for Rakan, Linia and my disciples.”
“Leave it to me.”
Trisha came in front of Tigris.
“Aren’t you going to take me with you this time?”
“There is nothing good about going. And it is much safer to go alone in the Forest of Mist and the Land of Mysteries.”
Trisha pursed her lips.
“········I did not think that I would sympathize with the plight of Charlotte and Irene, but today I understand. Can’t you trust me a little more? I’m Tigris-sama’s knight.”
“I’m leaving because I trust you. If anything goes wrong with me, I will protect Linia and my disciples.”
“You say that makes me more anxious.”
Trisha sighed and said.
“Well, it’s not like I’m going to be strangled… I know. Instead, don’t come here as a little grandpa and grandpa.”
“i get it.”
At that time, Nemesis brought Morita along.
“But what will this guy do?”
Morita’s condition did not look good on the outside.
He managed to get himself to his knees, but his bones were bruised like a drug addict, his eyes were open, and his lips were dry.
A situation where all you have to do is get on your knees.
Morita opened her mouth with a cracked voice.
“Kill it.”
Morita has struggled to survive until now.
In order to survive Viscount Griff, he came to Victory and took the Imperial University Instructor Exam.
He survived the winter on the street with his arms cut off by Tigris.
He lived for half a year as a gladiator with both arms cut off.
Up until now, I had barely endured it like a cactus grown in a dry desert, but now I was running out of mental strength to endure.
“I don’t want to live anymore. But I want to know why you said sorry to me.”
Morita wasn’t stupid.
He knew that the reason Tigris suddenly appeared in the arena was to catch Levis, not himself.
But I wanted to know the truth hidden in the truth, not the outward truth.
Why did he have to lead such a garbage life?
And why am I being seduced by this devilish Levis?
It seemed that if I knew everything, I would be able to die comfortably even if I died.
‘.
Surviving until the very end and shaking Tigris’ heart seemed to be the task left to the world.
“good night.”
Morita deserves to die knowing all these truths.
But not here.
Because there are too many eyes to see.
“Nemesis. Take it.”
Tigris handed the Bone Needle of Masarai that he had stolen from Levis to Nemesis.
When Nemesis received the bone needle, his expression changed as if he was about to cry, unlike his usual confident expression.
“thank you. Tigris.”
“It’s the price you paid for believing in me. So, I wish you all the best in the future.”
Nemesis put the bone needle into his bosom.
“Sure. Well, be careful.”
Tigris looked at Nadal.
Nadal cleverly cast the 7th circle teleport magic that he had prepared in advance.
“Then I wish you good luck.”
With the teleport magic, Tigris, Morita and Levis disappeared.
