Chapter 573: Reincarnated as a Genius of the Most Talented Family
384. I think it might be a little lacking.
The next lecture after the shooting department was the history department.
The Department of History has a surprisingly low rate of course closures for an unpopular major.
It’s a difficult place to go to if you don’t like history.
There are countless cases where students who enter with the intention of just enrolling and seeing how it goes end up failing the entrance exam.
That’s why the Department of History doesn’t particularly like taking classes taught by students from other departments.
Especially when it comes to such an uncommon lecture, such as the history of the empire, which is not a ‘relatively’ universal subject.
“Dane Sogres? As you may know, you are the only student from another department in this class.”
Imperial Draconic diplomat.
A lecture that looks back on the history of diplomacy between Alteon and Draenic, and examines the history of Draenic from that perspective.
This is a lecture that even history majors must take in their third year to be eligible to take.
However, Dane is taking this course now by taking advantage of the undergraduate privileges of the Autonomous Major Department.
“For your information, our Department of History has not had many cases of students from other departments obtaining a double major. Even if you simply take the course, it is difficult to gain much benefit.”
Nancy Brown, a professor of history, continued speaking with a rather stubborn air.
“As far as I know, Dane has never missed the top spot since he entered school. But I can’t guarantee that after taking this class.”
The history department undergraduates were surprised to hear that he had never missed out on being the top student, and nodded when he said that he could not guarantee anything.
The Department of History is a place you can’t come to if you don’t like history, and if you don’t like it, it’s hard to get good grades.
This is especially true since it deals with the history of the Draenics, not the history of the Empire.
“it’s okay.”
But Dane showed no sign of caring, and Professor Brown asked again.
“It might be boring, or it might not be a good fit for you. If you give up, you’ll definitely get an F.”
“all right.”
Professor Brown tilted his head inwardly.
I understand that you have a lot of talent and you are also smart, so why bother?
Ordinary chiefs try to maintain their position and protect their honor.
I wouldn’t necessarily take such an adventure.
“Okay. Well, let’s start the orientation. By the way, the Department of History never shortens the first day of classes just because it’s orientation.”
There’s no need to show it to someone for a taste, because everyone who wants to hear it will hear it anyway.
“Why did he come to our department?”
“Didn’t you hear? I told you that your course registration was ruined.”
“really?”
And the history department students, hearing the rumors, looked at Dane with pity.
“But why does it have to be our department’s lecture?”
“So. Why are you listening to this?”
A history department lecture that makes even fellow undergraduates shake their heads.
I came here because I liked it, and I listen to it because I like it, but even as a fellow undergraduate student, these are lectures that I find difficult to cheer for.
If you don’t like it, it’s such a boring subject that you’ll fall asleep within 5 minutes of the lecture starting and have nothing to say.
Rather than being wary of Dane, the undergraduates looked at him with pity.
I understand that the course registration failed, but even so, this kind of lecture is a bit…
“Okay, let’s start the lecture.”
So Professor Brown’s lecture began, and Drenique was mentioned right away.
“The Empire and the Draenics have an uneasy relationship. Some historians, from a revisionist perspective, argue that the term ‘Empire’ should also be used to refer to the Draenics, but because of this visual difference, all official documents within the Empire tend to refer to them as ‘Draenics.’”
It’s an academic story from the beginning.
“But it is certainly necessary to look at Dranek from a universal perspective. They are enemies now, but they may one day build friendly relations, and in the near future, they may even build cooperative relations.”
From the official perspective of the royal family, completely unacceptable stories were being told in the lectures.
Also, the undergraduate students did not seem surprised by these stories and just listened indifferently.
“Therefore, we need to look back on the diplomatic history to find out why we have come to this point in our relationship, what the current situation is, and what will happen in the future.”
It was then that Professor Brown’s eyes turned to him.
“In that sense, I ask our only other undergraduate student, Dane Sogres.”
As the eyes of all the undergraduates, including Professor Brown, turned to Dane, sharp questions erupted.
“If there were another war with the Draconic, why would it happen and what do you think the outcome would be?”
It was a question that was clearly connected in context, although it was slightly different from what I had just explained.
Dane didn’t answer right away.
But the sight seemed disconcerting to Professor Brown and his undergraduate students.
‘Professor, you’re really going too far.’
‘Why are you asking such a question? I don’t think we’ll get an answer right away even if you ask us.’
‘I’ll go out after listening to the OT.’
In this case, the answer is not set in stone.
However, most undergraduate students tend to be either/or when it comes to winning or losing, and the reasons for this are vague.
I thought Dane would do the same.
Until the answer comes out.
“It’s mutual destruction.”
“… … What did you say?”
“If I were to tell you the winner first, it would be mutual destruction.”
The surroundings became quiet as if Dane had hit the bull’s eye, and a flat voice continued.
“Another war that breaks out here is likely to be an all-out war, and defeat in an all-out war is likely to lead to mutual destruction.”
“Have you not considered the possibility of a ceasefire?”
“Given the reasons for the previous wars, this time both sides will try to get what they want. The Draenics will seek the fertile grain belt of Eastern Lawrence, while the Empire will seek to gain passage across the sea to the continent.”
Past wars have been covered up and justified for various reasons, but the reasons are simple.
The Draenics, whose food situation is always unstable, seek to take over the granary of Alteon.
Alteon, which urgently needs to open up a shipping route, is looking to occupy a port where shipping and trade are active.
The two countries fought fiercely over this, and hundreds of thousands of people were killed or injured.
“If it happens again, the two countries that barely managed to reach a ceasefire will try to complete the meaning of this war this time.”
“… … Then why did you come to the conclusion of mutual destruction?”
“Whether one side wins, the remaining wounds will slowly fester, and considering the feelings of both countries, even if they lose, they will not easily back down. The war will continue, and the group called the barbarians will look for an opportunity. And those who were once oppressed by the empire, called the ‘intermediate races’, will also come forward.”
Dane added a word while doing so.
“Altheon’s enemies aren’t just the Draenics, they’re also the Draenics.”
When asked to decide which of the two countries would win, the answer was mutual destruction.
That was when the corners of Professor Brown’s mouth curled up.
Isn’t that quite interesting?
Is this an opinion that a student from another department can give?
or not…….
Is this something you can express as Dane Sogres?
Of course, Professor Brown simply asked for opinions, not intended to criticize or point out answers.
“Okay. Then, if war breaks out again, why do you think it will happen?”
“I think it’s when both sides become desperately short. As the Draenic’s food situation worsens and Alteon’s desire to open up new routes grows stronger, the possibility of war increases. Or… … it could happen when one side becomes weaker.”
It was a theoretical story, but it was ultimately true.
The surroundings are quiet, and the eyes of the undergraduates change.
Because I found out that Dane’s insight was more than I expected.
‘How sharp.’
Professor Brown sensed a strange poignancy in Dane’s words.
Although he was not criticizing it outright, and although he was wrapping it up with the word desperation, he was ultimately arguing that war would break out the moment either of the two countries got greedy.
This was ultimately no different from nitpicking past wars.
So Professor Brown asked a new question.
“Very well. So what diplomatic strategy do you think the Empire should adopt against the Draenics going forward?”
Dane checked the time for a moment at those words and then asked.
“Are you okay?”
Are you okay?
“What does that mean?”
“I think the remaining time is not enough to answer that question.”
Professor Brown burst into laughter for the first time in a long while.

My little sister told me not to even think about going to graduate school.
My younger sister eventually became a professor a few years earlier than I thought, but sometimes I saw her looking very haggard.
And today I received a recommendation for graduate school. And that too from Professor Brown of the History Department.
“Are you really not thinking about it? I’m not saying you have to become a professor.”
My little sister said that.
Everyone starts with that phrase.
“There’s nothing difficult. After graduation, you just have to study a little more.”
I think I said that too, maybe.
“It takes some time to pass the thesis, but if you are a Dane student, you will do well.”
I said that I usually say that too.
How can you talk without making any mistakes?
Is there a genealogy of methods for recommending graduate schools circulating among professors?
“Thank you for the offer, Professor. But I am satisfied with this lecture alone. There are many things I want to do in the future.”
“Okay, I understand. If you change your mind, be sure to let me know.”
Professor Brown seemed to be very academic, so I appreciate it, but I have no plans to go to graduate school.
“Wow, today’s speech was very impressive. I don’t think there are many students in our undergraduate program who can speak so long, so persuasively, and so interestingly.”
There was also praise. It was about a story of an answer given to Professor Brown’s question right before the end of the lecture, about 20 minutes into the lecture.
I didn’t know I would give such a long answer, but whatever. The topic is the topic.
“I look forward to the next lecture. It’s been a long time since I felt this way.”
It was a lecture that I also found interesting.
Why does it seem like failing to register for classes is becoming more and more of a blessing in disguise?
Shooting Department.
Department of History.
It’s not all bad.
Especially in the case of the Department of History, it doesn’t seem like a bad idea since you can learn things related to Draenic.
The level of each lecture in the academy is very high, although the level of interest may differ.
Of course, there are the lecture delivery skills and personal reasons of the professors, but they are still experts in their field.
“Next is the Department of Necrophilia.”
[Let’s go quickly. I want to hear it.]
[Dane Sogress, I’d like to hear that too.]
Before I knew it, Poenes and Mini Golem, who had become close friends, were harassing me.
“When did you become so close?”
[Of course, from Mount Angat. Isn’t that right, Pebble?]
[Phoenix. At first I didn’t like the expression ‘stone’, but now I think I like it.]
They argue well.
“Kkuruk?”
In the meantime, Karnas popped his head out.
“Huh?”
There’s Torqeedo too.
Come to think of it, how many people, or rather, how many things, am I carrying around on my body right now?
There are four of them, four.
At this point, I think it would be safe to say that it’s like carrying a child around by human standards.
