I was reincarnated as a famous genius with the greatest talent ever. Episode 131
84. You must be riding a tightrope.
Arabella, who rushed to an urgent call, was speechless when she saw the investigation team’s office in complete chaos.
“Suicide.”
Dane said.
I removed all the poison from their mouths.
But he committed suicide with poison?
‘I think there’s something there.’
Arabella trusts her younger brother Dane infinitely.
Although they are still young, their thoughts and judgments often surprise people.
This is evident from the fact that we took Saul Hangston’s essence this time and discovered the code through ‘direct analysis’.
Therefore, Arabella decided to find out the situation first.
“senior.”
At that moment, he saw a junior member of the investigation team who had contacted him.
“What happened all of a sudden? “Suicide?”
“that is… … under. I’m going crazy too. “I’m sorry for calling you suddenly.”
“I’m sorry, but please explain the situation first.”
The junior looked around and took Arabella to a corner. And she carefully opened her mouth.
“This is still confidential.”
“know. me too.”
The junior looked around once again and finally started talking.
“During our initial investigation, he did not open his mouth. “Me and the chief investigator went in, but he didn’t say a word and just kept quiet.”
This is more natural than strange.
There’s no way those caught in a restricted area will just open their mouths.
“Then Professor DeNabo went in himself.”
“Why did someone only put their name on the investigation team?”
“I wondered that too. Anyway, Professor DeNabo also came back without much gain… … “After about an hour, they committed suicide.”
Professor DeNabo committed suicide after coming out.
Only Arabella knows that they were caught with their poison removed in the first place.
so that-
The type of embarrassment I felt now was clearly different from that of my junior.
‘Could it be that professor?’
A guess came to Arabella’s mind.
But it’s a ridiculous guess.
‘Could someone have secretly handed it over while in transit?’
That method is not very realistic either.
Arabella thought of Professor Dnabo again.
‘Then why?’
I can’t think of a good reason.
For what reason?
“The current atmosphere seems to be moving towards the conclusion of the case. “Those who opened their mouths have died, and although evidence has emerged, it is not enough to make a judgment.”
“Not enough to judge?”
“yes. “Some kind of note came out, but a lot of it was damaged to begin with.”
damage.
no.
Dane said he left behind something that would be clear evidence.
But it’s damaged so it’s hard to use as evidence?
“That too was what Professor DeNabo saw and judged.”
“… … .”
Everyone who opened their mouths was dead, and the evidence was destroyed.
And there is a high possibility that Professor DeNabo is ‘involved’ in all of this.
“Whew. So, it’s not a big fuss right now, but Professor DeNabo is saying that he will try to solve it somehow… … “There won’t be any big problems, right?”
Perhaps other people’s thoughts are no different from the juniors I’m talking about now.
It is hoped that this confusing situation caused by the ‘deaths’ of red-handed criminals will be resolved somehow.
Of course.
This could cause damage to the entire investigation team.
“Anyway, senior, thank you for coming. “I feel a little more at ease now that my senior is here.”
“It’s comfortable. “There will be a storm ahead.”
“That’s right. Whew… … The professor tells me not to worry, but how could I not? “The report must have already been sent to the top.”
Suddenly, one more question arose.
The opponent is Professor DeNabo.
If he ‘committed suicide’ –
Why would someone so ambitious and greedy go so far as to create blemishes?
‘I didn’t even think about it, but Dane found out.’
His younger brother, Dane.
If it weren’t for Dane, I might not have even thought of this suspicion and might have just accepted it as an incident.
‘It’s so amazing. I entered a restricted area and came out without being detected… … Even making things like this.’
Thanks to this, the investigation team is having a hard time, but if it wasn’t for Dane, it wouldn’t have been discovered in the first place.

‘Wait a minute, if all the speculations are true… … .’
Professor DeNabo came to mind again.
I’d like to believe it wasn’t, but given the circumstances, it’s highly likely that Professor DeNabo killed them.
That’s how much precipitation there was…
‘I guess I’m going to be on a bit of a poop right about now.’
* * *
Same time.
Professor DeNabo was sitting in the investigator’s office, tapping his desk.
Tapping the desk with his fingertips is a long-time habit of his.
It’s a habit you usually only see when you have something to think about… … .
Today, the interval between tapping on the desk was very fast.
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
The head of the Department of Magic and one of the empire’s leading wizards.
This is evidence that such a person is shaking with anxiety.
“I’m going crazy.”
Then, I finally couldn’t hold it in and let out a sigh.
“I almost got it… … .”
Saul Hangston’s Arcane Magic.
That’s what I’ve been looking for for a very long time.
It was right in front of me.
After a long investigation, the organization’s informants discovered the existence of a magic stone containing Saul Hangston’s essence.
So it’s already been a few months since I extracted it –
“What kind of guy… … .”
Everything went wrong.
The gang members were captured, and the essence contained in the magic stone disappeared.
Something unbelievable happened.
I couldn’t even guess what happened.
There were no traces of anyone else entering or leaving the restricted area, and the gang members say they suddenly fainted and were caught when they opened their eyes.
“You idiots.”
So I killed him.
It was disguised as suicide by taking poison.
The dead don’t speak.
Especially those who die after taking poison.
So there is no need to worry about something leaking… … .
This is a stopgap measure.
Obviously, someone stole that essence.
It’s only a matter of time before information leaks.
‘Surely they were the ones who switched? No, that can’t be true.’
For now, Professor DeNabo wasn’t too worried.
There is definitely room for doubt.
Because I moved rather hastily and committed suicide.
but-
As a result, the evidence was able to be destroyed.
There is nothing you can do with just your heart.
The fact that he is one of the executives of a secret society is a fact that only a very few people know.
Without even dreaming of what Dane and his strange-named club had done, Professor DeNabo came up with the wrong idea.
“no way… … “Are there other organizations seeking Hangston’s essence?”
The purpose of Professor DeNabo, a high-ranking member of the secret society, is to secure the essence of Saul Hangston and discover the code for arcane magic.
But, if someone took it… … .
“Damn it. “I investigated and found nothing!”
Professor DeNabo huffed.
Everything went awry.
I thought my wish would now come true!
“If only that had been there… … .”
I would have finally been able to achieve my dream of 9 chains!
Actually, the purpose of the organization is good.
The reason he accepted the organization’s recruitment offer in the first place was because of that vision magic.
But I never thought it would happen like this.
‘I have to find it.’
The above don’t know about this yet.
If so, you need to find it before then.
At least a criminal.
“But how?”
Professor DeNabo sat down and let out a deep sigh.
I already looked through everything but couldn’t find anything.
‘I guess I’ll just have to hold my breath for now.’
Professor DeNabo thought it was important to act calmly for now.
The evidence has been eliminated, but if you move around for no reason and arouse suspicion, you’ll be in trouble.
However, it was necessary to know what kind of guy was like that.
‘I guess I’ll have to visit the restricted area sometime soon.’
And one more thing.
‘I also need to contact the higher-ups.’
Of course, I had no idea that all of this happened because of an unexpected person.
The genius Dane Sogress, whom he is trying hard to seduce.
* * *
My eldest sister, who came back, explained the general situation and confirmed that my thoughts were similar.
“I guess he committed suicide after all?”
“That is highly likely. “Under the circumstances.”
I added one question to my eldest sister’s guess.
“If you think about why… … “I think there’s only one thing for me.”
“what is that?”
“Professor DeNavo doesn’t seem to have a very just personality, so um… … “Maybe a secret organization like those guys?”
“also.”
It seems like my eldest sister thought the same thing.
There are several reasons to think so.
Although that’s true under the circumstances-
“The Essence of Saul Hangston.”
It’s something that a wizard can’t help but covet.
“Of course, not everything is clear yet, Dane.”
“But you have to be careful.”
“that’s right. Maybe they’ll call you again and try to get you involved in something separate from this… … “I have to be careful.”
The eldest sister also took out the artifact gun.
“Oh, and you can use the artifact as is. If anyone asks, tell them I made it. Then no one will suspect anything.”
“You won’t feel the magic of Saul Hangston inside you, will you?”
“then. “If I coat you with your ancient magic, Saul Hangston won’t be able to recognize me even if he comes back alive, right?”
anyway.
The next day, I headed to the club room and gave the guys a rough idea of the situation.
“Suicide?”
“Didn’t you take out all that poison?”
“Was there something else you were hiding without us knowing?”
Everyone is naturally surprised.
Because these three saw me take the poison out from between their teeth and destroy it.
“Something about this expedition felt very uncomfortable.”
“I know. “I was able to find out and find something, but that’s because those guys were involved.”
Our club’s second expedition after the Hall of St. Aimar.
There was definitely something to be gained, but on the other hand, there was something I needed to make sure of.
“But, if someone like Professor DeNabo is involved in something like that… … “Isn’t it really really big?”
“Honestly, I’m a little anxious.”
Everyone was a little anxious.
So we need to be reassured.
“don’t worry. For now, you guys just know. “If you get involved for no reason, you get tired.”
Everyone seems relieved for now.
First of all, there are many people who can help me.
Professor Kael’thas.
Seedrain, the magic tower lord of Niruksion.
Sisters.
Father, mother.
Professor DeNabo is said to be quite powerful, but that doesn’t mean he’s an opponent he can’t beat if they clash in the future.
However, I’m just a little worried that they’ll become too deeply intertwined and cause problems.
“But we will help. Dane, you can’t do this alone.”
“that’s right. We did it together. “We have to figure it out together.”
“If you need divine power, let me know. “Even if your limbs fly off, just bring it back and I’ll put it back on you.”
Still, it makes me laugh when I see them trying to do something together.
Amazing guys.
“good.”
Then let’s do it like this.
We plan to monitor Professor DeNavo’s condition and collect evidence by following him in the near future.
It’s definitely uncomfortable to ask about the incident like this.
Because it is ridiculous that the head of the academy’s magic department is a member of a secret organization.
Of course, I have no intention of making a hasty move right now.
“I guess I’ll have to put it on hold for a while.”
If you move in a hurry, nothing happens.
All I have to do is collect evidence step by step and find someone who can help me.
Anyway, I decided to think positively.
Because from now on, I’m going to create artifacts.
“First, I will think about what to do with Professor DeNabo. “It’s not like we can move right away, because we’re holding the hilt of the sword.”
Everyone nodded.
The initiative is definitely with us.
Professor DeNavo doesn’t know about us, but he knows about us.
“And if you need any artifacts, please let me know.”
“suddenly? Did you get any artifacts during this expedition?”
“That’s not it, I’m going to make one with the essence of Saul Hangston I acquired this time. “Each person needs one thing.”
The three’s eyes widened.
Artifact.
A general term for items that use magical power to produce special power.
However, even for the same artifact, its power varies greatly.
Wouldn’t it be even worse if it were an artifact made with magical power extracted from Saul Hangston’s essence?
“Really? “An artifact with that?”
“oh my god… … “If it was made with Saul Hangston’s magic, it would be amazing.”
“crazy… … .”
For reference, the last one is Priscilla’s reaction.
And the artifact can be used without major problems even by people with divine powers.
This is because, unless it directly affects the body, it uses and returns the magical energy contained within the artifact.
“I’m really worried. “What should I make?”
“Leila, you have a good sword, how about some armor?”
“Armor? It’s cumbersome. Oh, I guess an inner-type armor like Brigandine would be okay?”
“hmm… … “I wish I had one for self-defense.”
I giggled as I looked at the three excited people.
“Ernest, you would be fine with a bow.”
“bow? ah! that’s right. That would be nice too. We’re practicing hard these days! Although I didn’t have anything to write about this time… … .”
It seemed like Leila had made a rough decision.
“I guess armor would be fine as Ernest said? “The sword is something my father gave me.”
“Then what about an appropriate self-defense item? If you approach, just hit it with your fist and that’s it. But, based on my image, I can’t turn around while wearing something like a gauntlet, right?”
I shook my head when I saw Priscilla giving me a gloomy expression.
“Okay, then I’ll tell you that.”
“good!”
“Oh yea!”
Priscilla suddenly asked.
“Is it by any chance Arabella making it for you?”
“huh. “Can I make it too?”
“wow… … So are we using something specially made by that famous person?”
“That’s the way it is.”
If you think about it, it’s a huge deal to use an artifact that my older sister made herself.
To me, she is a family member and older sister, but to others, she is a respected inventor and wizard with great talent, and her inventions are already being used in everyday life.
Anyway, it seems like the invention part has been roughly decided now.
“By the way, Dane. “There was a notice like this in our department earlier.”
At that time, Layla suddenly held out a piece of paper.
“What?”
“Regular monster subjugation.”
I tilted my head as I heard this story for the first time, took the paper and read it.
[Academy regular monster subjugation support information]
– We are recruiting applicants from each department in relation to the regular monster subjugation project at the Imperial Academy that will be held this year as well, so we hope you will participate.
-This time, the subjugation of monsters is carried out under the command of the 4th Imperial Knights.
-The application qualifications and separate qualification selection test schedules for each department are as follows.
*Grade: No limit
*Faculty: No restrictions (placement by department after passing a separate qualification selection exam)
*Separate qualification: Pass the selection test
“It’s about subjugating monsters.”
Looking at the participation of the Imperial Knights, it seems like it will be led by the Imperial Family but sent out with support from Academy students.
wait.
If it’s the 4th Knights… … .
It’s a knighthood led by a man named Delphion Ornette, who came with the 3rd prince at that time.
If I were to meet the prince like this… … I might be able to get some help with Professor DeNabo’s case.
“Go to the ruins near the capital.”
“ruins?”
Ernest showed interest in the word ruins.
“huh. “There is one ruin whose excavation has been canceled due to conditions. It has been left in an abandoned state, but at some point, monsters came in and set up camp.”
“Excavation canceled… … !”
Ernest was already crazy about the word ruins.
“Anyway, let’s go and subdue monsters together with the Imperial Knights. But wait, if it’s the 4th Imperial Knights… … .”
I think I heard that somewhere.
ah.
“Isn’t this the place led by the knight commander who came with the prince at that time?”
“I see.”
“So, does this mean His Majesty the Prince is also coming?”
“no way. Even if you come, you will only observe. And even if you come, you won’t have time to chat leisurely with us. “It’s an official position.”
Anyway, the exam schedule is next week.
“Do you all want to join us? “The compensation is also significant.”
“Isn’t there a club section?”
“Unfortunately, there isn’t any. Each department participates and each individual is evaluated. Of course, departments with a small number of students will be together with other departments.”
If the number of people is small, our autonomous major department cannot be left out.
“So am I just going to enter some random department?”
“Maybe? Oh, Ernest, don’t you guys have a small number of undergraduate students?”
“So you want to be on the same team as Dane?”
Ernest’s eyes sparkled, but he soon became sullen.
“I don’t think I have the skills to pass yet.”
“why. You just have to try it for experience. hmm. “If Ernest passes, he will join the shooting department, right?”
“I guess so.”
Leila agreed and asked Priscilla.
“What about you, Priscilla?”
“We are forced to leave.”
Priscilla sighed as if she had been waiting.
“It’s the divinity department. “Even if you don’t take an exam or something, you will be forcibly drafted and have to treat the injured.”
Well, I guess so.
So this time, it seemed like we would move as individual students rather than as a club unit.
“The compensation looks good.”
-Rewards are given to students and departments that rank up to 3rd in the overall evaluation ranking, reflecting various evaluation criteria. The rewards are as follows.
*Undergraduate category
1st place: 500 crown gold coins
2nd place: 300 crown gold coins
3rd place: 100 crown gold coins
My standard undergraduate level compensation is not particularly attractive.
However, individual compensation was slightly different.
It is said that second and third place are crown gold coins and special artifacts given by the imperial family.
In addition to the artifact, the first place winner in the individual category was awarded one more ‘special’ reward.
as soon as-
“Imperial residence?”
“Oh my god, they’re opening the imperial archives?”
This is a remark from the imperial family.
Also, it’s not just about letting them look around, it’s about giving them the right to choose anything and take it with them.
This is tempting.
Do you know anything?
It is a royal remark.
There may be a clue to the ancient magic kingdom, Arcana, within it.
