Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 96
096 – Morgoth (1)
In the middle of the street in Victory.
Thousands of citizens came out on the streets and booed the procession of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Gillion, Michael and the second prince, Morgoth.
-Where are you coming from here, you bastards!
-Aren’t you going to your country right now?!
– Get away from the killer!
– Can you guys still be called Lux members?!
Some citizens threw eggs and stones at the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Gillion and the carriage and paladin on which Morgoth rode.
The carriage had barrier magic spread out, so it was fine, but the armor of the Paladins vibrated with the smell of rotten eggs.
Paladins shot such citizens, but there was nothing they could do.
The public’s anger was justified.
The paladins bit their lips as they read the newspaper headlines tied up with the stones.
[All Paladins from the Kingdom of Gillion are from violent criminals?!]
[Shock! Cardinal Francesco is a spy in the Kingdom of Gillion.]
[Shock fact! Lux Priest, Convict of 5 Criminal Crimes…]
The imperial press made a special mention of the fact that the paladins and priests from the kingdom of Gillion had a history of committing violent crimes in the past.
Originally, the press is like a flying bird, so when a piece of bread is scattered on the floor, it quickly flies away and pecks it.
The media all fired arrows of criticism towards the Lux Church, and even made a list of priests and paladins from the Kingdom of Gillion and spread them out.
As the majority of the people of the Lucet Empire believed in Luxism, the sense of betrayal soared without knowing it.
In the end, the Pope of the Lux Church decided to repatriate all the priests and paladins sent to the Lucet Empire to the Kingdom of Gillion.
– Isn’t that little Ion?! I heard that he was a scumbag who picked and killed only children in the Kingdom of Gillion?
– I need to rip that bastard to death right now! hey! look away! Because one of my little fingers is enough for these killers!
– Come on, get out of the way?! Do you also follow the Lux Church?
Some angry citizens scrambled to push the soldiers who had made a way for the wagon to pass through.
At that moment, a man stepped over the shield raised by the soldiers.
“uh?! uh!?”
The man took out a dagger from his bosom and rushed to the Paladins.
“die!”
In an unexpected situation, just as the Paladins were about to pull out their swords, a golden knight wearing an Ahmet helmet subdued the man in an instant.
The golden knight broke the man’s arm without pulling out his sword, and threw his foot on the floor and crushed it.
The man twisted his body and resisted.
“Leave this! let this go! That bastard touched my sister!”
However, the golden knight was handcuffed without shaking.
And he led the man to the soldier who approached the knight.
The man spat bloody at the golden knight who had stopped him.
The golden knight was able to escape, but he was spit with blood.
“Ahhh! You know what the paladins did, and you’re protecting them now?! uh?!”
While being dragged by the soldiers, the man shouted at the golden knight.
“Come on, tell me! Come on tell me! A knight who is supposed to protect the people of Lucet asks why he is protecting them!”
The golden knight turned away from the man’s scream and returned to his place.
“Come on, answer me!”
Then, one of the golden knights wearing the Ahmet helmet approached.
On his chest, three pairs of golden wing brooches, the symbol of the second lieutenant, were hung.
Vice Knights Commander Miller opened his mouth.
“Good job. Charlotte.”
Charlotte looked at Miller for a moment and then opened her mouth.
“I just did my duty.”
“Can you continue?”
“Yes. I have to.”
Miller nodded after hearing Charlotte’s answer.
“Then, please.”
“Yes. All right.”
Charlotte’s clenched fist trembled slightly.
* * *
Charlotte took off her Ahmet helmet.
Charlotte’s golden hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her skin.
“after······.”
Charlotte looked down at Ahmet Helm.
Ahmet’s helmet was stained with blood.
Charlotte wiped the blood with the gauntlet.
But it didn’t clean well.
It just spread.
“sister.”
Charlotte turned her head to Linia’s voice from behind.
Linia handed Charlotte a handkerchief.
“thank you. Linia.”
Charlotte wiped Ahmet’s helmet with the handkerchief that Linia had given her.
Then Ahmet’s helmet flashed golden.
“I saw you earlier. Are you okay?”
Charlotte said with a smirk.
“Well, what couldn’t you do? Because I was the only one who could stop the terrorist.”
Charlotte placed Ahmet’s helmet on the crown.
“And Vice-President Miller said that this could happen. I think I handled it well.”
He said so, but Charlotte still had the man’s scream ringing in his ears.
He never thought that his first opponent would not be a soldier or knight from an enemy country with a clear distinction between enemies, but rather the powerless Lucet people.
I don’t know for sure, but it seems that family problems are intertwined…
Charlotte didn’t do anything wrong, but there was something that made her cry when she remembered the man’s expression and scream.
Linia hugged Charlotte from behind without saying a word, with her head bowed down.
I couldn’t feel the warmth because of the hard armor, but it was still comforting.
“thank you. Linia.”
Charlotte closed her eyes and was comforted by Linia, letting go of her previous gloomy feelings.
Then a new sensation stimulated Charlotte.
Charlotte’s nose twitched.
“…By the way, was it an egg?”
“······Oh right.”
“Aaaaah!”
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
While Linia was wiping Charlotte’s armor and hair with a handkerchief, the locker room door opened and Irene entered.
There was blood on Irene’s Ahmet helmet and armor.
Charlotte was startled.
“Irene! Where are you hurt?”
“…not my blood.”
Irene said as she put Ahmet’s helmet on the pedestal.
“A guy in the convoy committed suicide.”
“What? really?”
“I lived with the healing wizard hastily treated me… but I won’t be able to taste the soup for the rest of my life.”
Charlotte handed Irene the handkerchief she had cleaned a while ago.
“thank you.”
Charlotte asked with hope.
“Was that person a man with brown hair and freckles?”
Irene glanced at Charlotte and shook her head.
“no. I’m not the one you overpowered.”
“Hey, I’m glad…”
buck- buck-
Irene said nervously, wiping Ahmet’s helmet.
“I felt today that the job of a knight is not as honorable as I thought.”
“I think I know what you mean.”
As a knight, he knew he would save good people or protect his master, but he was only doing things like preventing suicide by hitting eggs or biting his tongue.
Even though he was just doing his job, he was insulted by tens of thousands of people whom he had never met before.
“But why did Master tell us to learn these things?”
At Irene’s empty question, Charlotte and Linia were silent.
Because neither of them knew the answer.
What the three of them have learned over the past two months has varied greatly.
I learned a lot of things, such as the alert method, sign language method, factor security method, detection system auror operation, secret patrol, and how to remove the chase, but most of them had little to do with the development of swordsmanship.
However, the appearance of Tigris that the three of them have seen so far has been a great way to kill the Chimera and save people.
So, I thought that I needed to sharpen my sword even more, but Vice-Chief Miller didn’t even look after him, he even made me not to touch the sword except during personal training.
Charlotte said as she took off her gauntlets.
“What do you mean?”
Still, the reason the three of them received training diligently without saying a word was because they believed in Tigris.
There’s no way Tigris can give you useless training.
Linia deliberately spoke in a bright voice to shake off her depressed mood.
“But as of today, training is over. Let’s get ready to go.”
“yes. right.”
For the past two months, I have been living in the dormitory where the Golden Knights are staying.
The accommodation was not inconvenient, but the house was the best anyway.
And to go home meant that I could finally meet Tigris.
“I want to hear what happened in the jungle.”
Charlotte, Irene, and Linia hurriedly took off their stuffy armor and threw it into the throne room.
* * *
It was around sunset when the three of them left the palace.
When I said hello to Miller and the seniors who took care of me, the time was delayed quite a bit.
Lenny and Jane had to go home first to clean the house, so they left with a light footstep.
“I wanted to say hello to Princess Rain Rover, but it’s a pity.”
“I can’t help it because I’m busy. I’ll have to see you later.”
It was Princess Rain Rover who took good care of the three at the Imperial Palace.
On the weekends, he came to me and told me interesting stories to the three people who didn’t know what was going on in the world because they were training.
The story of the Marquis of Baros, the story of the discovery of the tombs of giants in the Suin Autonomous Region, etc., told them that the future of the Lucet Empire will be markedly different from the past.
Of course, Tigris is at the center of the change, but Rain Rover deliberately avoided responding to news about Tigris.
– Wouldn’t it be more interesting to hear the story of Sir Tigris in person?
The answer made the three of them even more mad, but it was easy to see that Tigris was avoiding the answer because everything he had done was confidential.
“By the way, it’s really nice to walk so leisurely.”
“So.”
The three decided to walk from the Imperial Palace to their house instead of riding a horse-drawn carriage.
In the past two months, the three of them have not been outside the palace.
In addition, because of security issues, the places where three people could go inside the palace were very limited, so it was impossible to move freely even inside the palace.
Of course, I came out today for my security experience, but I couldn’t feel the freedom because I was so nervous about finding the winner among the angry citizens after getting hit with eggs.
“Shall we go out to dinner? After all, Lenny must be busy cleaning the house, right?”
“I don’t think it’s bad.”
So the three of them headed to Middletown, where there are a lot of delicious restaurants.
Of course, because the three of them were celebrities, they wore masks to cover their faces.
Linia glanced back and furrowed her eyebrows.
“I think the paparazzi are twisted again.”
Charlotte sighed.
“How do they recognize that we even wear masks?”
“I think they waited from the entrance of the imperial palace.”
“It’s hard to eat out once.”
At that moment, Irene stopped and looked at a group of men hastily running down the street.
The men gathered in one place, nodded in a small voice, and then dispersed in all directions.
On the surface, it looked very suspicious.
Charlotte and Linia also looked at the men and opened their mouths.
“········These people are paladins, right?”
“right. I think I’ve seen it on the factor HR list.”
The faces of those men were on the list of factors that I had learned because of today’s security mission.
In particular, the man wearing a fedora hat and round glasses was Lord Leopard, a six-ring paladin who was closely guarding the second prince Mogotte.
“What happened? Why are the paladins walking around without uniforms?”
“Well. I don’t know what’s going on, but something urgent must have happened.”
The three made eye contact with each other.
The smell of the incident was strong.
Originally, it would be okay to just ignore it, but the three of them were hungry for a recent incident.
To be precise, they wanted to prove to Tigris that they were useful.
“Would you like to know a little bit about what is going on?”
The two nodded at Charlotte’s words.
Charlotte immediately gave instructions using the sign language she learned from the Golden Knights.
-Romeo Point, 30 minutes, gathering.
The Romeo point was referring to the Celtic Hotel, the final destination of today’s security mission.
Linia and Irene understood Charlotte’s sign language and immediately dispersed in all directions.
“uh?! uh!”
The paparazzi quickly chased after the three people who disappeared into the alley in an instant, but in the end they missed it.
* * *
Thirty minutes later, the three gathered at a cafe in front of the Celtic Hotel.
The three looked at each other’s clothes and laughed.
The three of them were dressed completely differently than they did 30 minutes ago.
He wore a mask reminiscent of an adventurer or a mercenary, but hid his impressions as much as possible with glasses and a hat.
“I don’t think the Golden Knights taught anything useless.”
At Irene’s words, Charlotte and Linia burst into laughter.
The three of them looked around the Celtic Hotel while drinking tea as leisurely as possible at the cafe.
The surroundings of the hotel were very messy.
Paladins in uniform were investigating the identities of people entering or leaving the hotel, and hotel staff were running around.
It was clear that something had happened on the side of the Gillion Kingdom.
In Charlotte’s eyes, a familiar face appeared.
Michael was the foreign minister.
Charlotte strengthened her hearing to hear what the Paladins were talking about.
– Go out and find it! Don’t let the Inquisitors or the Golden Knights find them first!
– Who the hell is that bellboy?
-It’s a guy named Tom Wood, and it’s the first name he’s ever heard from the hotel side.
– It looks like an Inquisitor. Damn, I opened my eyes and cut my nose. Let’s all go out and find the least troops here. I still wouldn’t have gone far.
-Yes. Okay.
It was not known for certain, but it was clear that the Kingdom of Gillion had lost something valuable.
“What the hell are you making such a fuss about?”
“I do not know. It would be common sense to call the police if something was stolen, but there are no police or soldiers around.”
“It means that it is an important thing that the Kingdom of Gillion has to discover first without the help of the Empire.”
“Let’s watch it one more time.”
However, even after 15 and 30 minutes, important information could not be obtained.
Nothing was known except that the paladins in plain clothes went out in groups, and that the police rushed to the Celtic Hotel and started an investigation, I don’t know who reported it.
“Do you want me to go back alone? I don’t think there’s anything we can do.”
At Charlotte’s words, Linia and Irene nodded, their mouths droopy.
I started the investigation out of curiosity, but the information I could get was too limited.
There seemed to be nothing the three of them could do any more.
“Now let’s go home.”
“Wait.”
Then, something caught Irene’s eyes.
Two men in police uniforms were coming out of the main gate of the Celtic Hotel, and one man’s face was very familiar.
“Isn’t that Rakan?”
Although she was wearing a fake mustache, Irene’s eyes could not be avoided.
That was obviously Rakan.
“Wait.”
The paladin guarding the front door stopped Rakan and the fat cop.
The three of them swallowed their saliva.
Rakan stopped and turned towards the paladin.
The fat policeman pretended to be looking at the investigation notebook and didn’t turn his head.
Rakan said very calmly.
“What’s going on? Do you have any information that might help with the investigation?”
Rakan’s expression and tone were so natural that even Irene was instantly deceived.
The paladin looked at Rakan up and down with suspicious eyes.
The paladin, who had been staring at him for a while, opened his mouth.
“······no. no. I must have misunderstood.”
“Then let’s go.”
Rakan and the fat cop escaped the paladin’s suspicion and exited the front door.
The three sighed in relief.
I don’t know what was going on, but it was clear that Rakan was involved in another strange case.

Just like at Princess Rain Rover’s birthday party, Rakan often gets involved in big events that are very strange.
“········Rakan, what the hell is he doing?”
Rakan and the fat cop have since then completely escaped the Celtic Hotel’s exterior without being suspected by the other paladins.
At that moment, a relief appeared on Rakan’s face.

Just then, a man stopped in front of a fat police officer.
Then he looked carefully at his face and opened his mouth.
“······· Morgot-sama?”
Rakan took out the wand he was hiding in his sleeve and quickly weaved the magic.
Although it was a 1 circle magic, it did not take 0.5 seconds to activate.
“light!!!”
“Ouch!”
Rakan fed the light in front of the man’s eyes and said to the fat cop, no, Morgoth.
“Run over there!”
Rakan’s fingers were pointing towards Charlotte, Irene, and Linia.
“······Eh?”
