I was reincarnated as a famous genius with the greatest talent ever. Episode 87
46. Gorgeous outing (3)
The Academy was turned upside down once again.
It is because of the visit of the imperial investigation team.
It is rare for the imperial family to visit the Academy.
Even if they do come, they visit secretly, because dozens of people don’t come holding flags like this.
Therefore, the people involved in the purpose of the visit were literally shaking, and could not hide their anxiety even as they headed to the Hall of St. Aimar with the investigation team.
“I’ll try to organize it again. There was a huge tremor in the early morning, and I followed the epicenter and found the hall of Saint Aimar. And this place where the undead should have been originally, was filled with only strong divine power?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“This is ridiculous. And yet there is no evidence?”
Delphion, leader of the investigation team dispatched by the imperial family and commander of the 4th imperial knighthood, shook his head as if he was dumbfounded.
At first, I was suspicious that the academy itself was hiding the incident, but that wasn’t the case.
We called all the people on duty that day and all those involved to investigate, but the statements were consistent.
“That’s bullshit.”
Delphion clicked his tongue as he looked at the messed up interior of the hall.
Did the undead start a fight?
Judging from the signs of damage and scars on the damaged pillar, it was clearly recent.
I literally have no idea.
“First of all, I expect there was an intruder, but… … “I can’t find the clue.”
“hmm. “It looks like they used anti-tracking powder or something.”
“I guess so.”
I think so.
maybe.
Everything is full of speculation.
They even say that they didn’t get hit by anything like a barrier once while heading to this hall.
“But just in case, I’ll take a look at the barrier.”
“Ah yes. “This way.”
Actually, Delphion is just as annoying.
Even the imperial investigation team went out, but what would happen if they went back and said they couldn’t find any traces?
So, feeling like I was grasping at straws, I approached the barrier around the hall… … .
“There’s nothing wrong at all.”
It was clean without a single trace.
Although Delphion did not have deep knowledge in the field of barriers, he at least knew that there were no signs of damage or manipulation in the barrier device.
“We are also very embarrassed.”
Thanks to this, the people in charge of the barrier and the professors of the Department of Sacred Studies did not know what to do.
And there was another reason for this.
“What do you think?”
“hmm.”
That is, the existence of the 3rd prince.
At Delphion’s words, he took off his robe, revealing hair that was as fiery red as the setting sun with a hint of orange.
A hair color unique to the imperial family.
The 3rd prince, Edward Danter.
“Woe, Your Majesty the Prince!”
3rd prince.
Edward Danter.
The first prince who already leads the Imperial Knights.
The second prince is said to have exceptional talent for magic.
Compared to him, the 3rd prince is not widely known.
I never thought he would be here.
“There is no need to be polite. “I don’t want to reveal what I’ve been following all along.”
The 3rd prince spoke calmly and reassured the people in front of him. Still, she looked into the barrier with deep eyes.
‘Is this a trace of the barrier melting?’
Very subtle but heterogeneous parts can be felt along the surface.
Traces as if it had been melted and put back together.
No one found it, but the 3rd prince did.
however-
“How do you feel, Your Majesty?”
“hmm… … .”
I couldn’t tell.
I wasn’t confident.
Because I wasn’t sure.
What meaning is there in his words when he has no talent at all?
“I’m not sure.”
“… … Is that so.”
3rd Prince, Edward asked someone at the Academy.
“Have you investigated this area as well?”
“Ah yes. Lowering. “We investigated, but unfortunately we found no traces or evidence.”
Edward thought.

There are traces of the barrier here melting and sticking together differently from other places.
That clearly means that someone broke in.
Of course, everyone knows that much.
There is no way that the halls of Saint Aimar could have been purified naturally.
“There were intruders, but they were extremely meticulous in erasing their traces.”
“exactly. What’s even more surprising is the fact that I passed this barrier.”
Delphion asked Edward.
“Is it that difficult?”
“hmm. All of the barriers that exist here at the academy were created by Saul Hangston. It is a barrier so great that it has been used for hundreds of years. “I don’t remember ever having it broken through.”
Saul Hangston.
A legendary wizard who created all the barriers that exist in the Academy.
Not only is the lecture hall named after him, but he is someone everyone in the empire knows about.
The 3rd prince clearly seemed to have extensive knowledge.
“I don’t know who he is, but he is a very talented person.”
And it also means that this is dangerous work.
“Sir, breaking through the barrier installed by Saul Hangston means that we can also neutralize the imperial barrier.”
“It’s highly likely.”
Edward’s expression darkened.
Because of this, Delphion felt sorry.
‘If only the prince had been given one more talent.’
Delphion liked the upright and upright Third Prince. So I felt sorry for him who had no talent and had to live without confidence every day.
Same goes for Edward.
‘If only I had talent in some way.’
I almost insisted and joined this investigation team.
Because I want to help.
So, I wanted to please my father, the emperor.
With my natural keen eye and my usual interest in barriers and space, I discovered something, but that was it.
of course-
‘How on earth did you do it anyway? It’s impossible to explain with my knowledge… … .’
Even if he had blossomed into whatever talent he had, he would not have found out that he passed through this barrier with a combination of ancient magic and the legendary creature dragon.
Because it’s something you can’t even think about in the first place.
“But we can’t go any further than this, so it’s a wall.”
Edward spoke with genuine regret, and Delphion and the others sighed at these words.
“We investigated for two days and nights to find traces of the criminal… … “It’s really exciting.”
“It might be the work of an outsider. “If you can pass through this barrier without leaving a trace, breaking into the academy is no problem.”
At that time, Edward let out a little moan.
Delphion asked hastily.
“Lowering.”
“Oh, it’s okay. “It’s a pain that’s always been there.”
“If you feel any inconvenience, please tell me. I’ll be right back. “The investigation is important to me, but my safety is more important than anything else.”
Delphion whispers in a voice so low that no one else can hear.
Likewise, Edward secretly massaged his hand and shook his head so that others could not see.
“I came because I wanted to, and I don’t want to be rude to you. “My hands are fine.”
“Lowering.”
“Uh huh, it’s really okay.”
An unknown pain felt in Edward’s hand.
It was an inexplicable pain that had been tormenting the Third Prince since he was around five years old.
Because of this pain, Edward was unable to hold a sword or form a magic spell.
It’s a relief to barely eat, but I tend to wake up every night.
Perhaps, because of this, you may have even missed the opportunity to recognize your talent.
So Edward was even more desperate and always spent his days confined to the library.
“… … “If it gets any worse, you must tell me.”
“hmm. I’ll do that.”
Was it because of the pain in my hands that I felt strangely urgent?
Edward thought.
‘I need more clues. ‘I need to look around more.’
Meanwhile, Delphion asked a few more questions without noticing the third prince’s thoughts.
I think that we can’t go back like this.
“… … Then there were no traces on the trail nearby. “Did you say it was around 5 am?”
“It was around that time when dawn broke.”
“What about magic detection?”
“Nothing was caught.”
After that, the story continues and some time passes.
“That’s strange. No matter how you look at it, it’s strange. It is a matter that His Majesty the Emperor has some interest in, even if it is not extraordinary… … .”
“Uh, Captain?”
“hmm. As expected, it would be a good idea to reexamine the surroundings… … .”
“Everything, Captain?”
Delphion turned around when he heard a voice urgently calling him.
“What’s going on?”
“Well, that, that… … “I, you are not here.”
A chilling sensation running down my spine.
“You?”
Delphion looked around.
does not exist.
He’s not there.
The 3rd prince who was there just a moment ago is no longer visible.
“Stop the search! Find him right away!”
This moment.
The purpose of the investigation team that came to investigate the halls of St. Aimar was changed to searching for the prince.
* * *
We returned from our outing sooner than expected and headed to the area near Bonia Forest to make up for our disappointment.
As expected, the academy was full of whispers as we went.
Most of them were stories about the procession of imperial investigators that had just entered the main gate of the academy.
“We really played on a large scale.”
It was just as Ernest said.
I never thought that the imperial investigation team would be present for the club’s first activity.
“You won’t get caught, right?”
I chuckled at Leila’s anxious words.
I can’t believe that the guy who acted so proud and confident in the furniture store just now trembles like that as soon as he sees the imperial investigation team.
Well, it could be because the imperial family is on a different level.
“don’t worry. “Don’t get caught.”
Ernest had sprinkled anti-tracking powder so meticulously that he would never have guessed the presence of a dragon.
Even if you knew, how would you find out?
If they had been caught, it would have already been revealed during the academy’s own investigation.
“Let’s do some training.”
I put all my worries aside.
Even if you suspect it, you have an alibi.
There was no fact that we had escaped, so we were in the dormitory.
Anyway, we arrived at Bonia Forest and each of us started training. Now it feels natural to train here.
Because it’s in front of a forest where you never know what might come out, there are few people, and at most there’s only a forest guard who sleeps a lot all the time and only goes out on patrol at night.
“Whoa.”
Leila picked up a sword, and Ernest started doing bodyweight exercises. If things continue that way, I think I’ll be able to string a bow soon.
I started training on my own.
Karnas was still asleep, so rather than making violent movements, he settled down in a suitable place and began arranging the magic code.
“Four chains in one… … “If the arrangement is successful this time, there will be two.”
Magic is fun.
Because the achievements are visible.
I have already succeeded in arranging the 4-chain magic code.
Even though I haven’t even learned the entire 3-chain magic code arrangement.
That’s why ancient magical power is amazing, and at the same time, I’m curious.
“hmm?”
By the way, as I began to concentrate my magic power to arrange the four-chain magic code, I began to see the flow of magic power in the human body again.
“You really need concentration.”
I kept a close eye on Ernest, who was now lying on the bare ground and repeatedly raising his body.
It’s very faint, but you can see it.
The flow of magical energy flowing within Ernest’s body.
Since people naturally have magical power, we can also see the current flow of Ernest’s magical power.
When you raise your body, move toward your stomach.
He shouted that he had to give his stomach strength like that, and it was true.
“Whoa.”
I lost my concentration and sighed again.
This is no joke.
Anyway, what do you expect to see later?
Do you want to have clairvoyance skills?
There are two circles now, but what happens after three or four?
“Let’s start by arranging the code.”
First, I’ll practice the 4-chain magic first, then go back to the dormitory where I just used it and try it.
“first… … “It’s Wind Bomb.”
The magic I’m currently practicing is shooting compressed air bullets and making them explode.
The key is to collect the air in the atmosphere, hold it, and then release it.
Hehehe!
As I begin to arrange the code, a strong wind begins to blow around me.
It is, after all, ancient magical power.
The book says there is a gentle breeze blowing, but right now it is at the level of a typhoon.
“wow! “It’s cool!”
“Dane, what kind of magic is this?”
Thanks to this, the two seemed to be having fun, perhaps having cooled off their sweat.
“hmm.”
And magic turned out to be simpler than you think. Is it because you’ve been practicing before? Of course, it is several times shorter than the time it usually takes to learn.
This isn’t ancient magical power, it’s probably my talent.
Because Seed Lane did that.
Although it is a bit complicated, the 4-chain magic code also seems worth doing.
Ugh!
I let go of the air bullet floating in my palm.
Since it was my first time, I adjusted the power appropriately –
Pow!
Judging by the sound, it seems like it’s about as easy as breaking a tree branch… … .
“Ahh!”
what.
Why do I hear people screaming?
“Dane, what did you just do?”
“It sounded like a person screaming.”
I got up and immediately two people followed me.
The place where the wind blows away is a grass forest.
It’s unlikely that a passerby was hit.
So who was watching us?
Rustle.
I went through the grass and found the guy inside.
Some guy was curled up and groaning.
“Ugh… … Ugh.”
For a moment, I was speechless.
That robe… … This is the robe that the people in the imperial investigation team parade were wearing earlier.
But there was a bigger reason than that.
“The hair color… … .”
hair is red
There is only one being that I know of that is born with the color red.
There’s one more thing.
Clearly, the same strange feeling I felt when I encountered the investigation team procession was conveyed.
It was then.
Leila’s embarrassed voice was heard.
“Woe, imperial family?”
