The Genius Professor Wants An Easy Life - Chapter 122
The Street of Truth was a maze-like alley.
It was a busy alley that is common in every big city, but it had its own characteristics.
There was writing written all over the walls.
It wasn’t just a graffiti.
-What is the effect of the variable phase difference using relative particle transformation on the energy of the star?
-How should the empire respond to the winds of revolution blowing across the Seven Kingdoms and the Republic of Lahn?
-How to respond to the Imperial Arntal Swordsmanship 3-sword style in a horizontal slash posture?
Problems!
Yes.
This was a place for scholars to show off their knowledge and compete anonymously.
I put on the hood of the robe I had prepared in advance and headed to the booth located at the entrance to the alley.
A person who appeared to be a city official was yawning.
It was originally started as a joke by scholars gathered in the city, but it is said that when it became widely popular, management began at the city level.
“Is this your first time here? Is it tourism or a challenge? “If it’s a sightseeing trip, it’s 10 pena, and if it’s a challenge, it’s 1,000 pena.”
“… “It’s expensive.”
“This is to prevent others from challenging. “If you prove that you are an academic official, you can receive a discount.”
I was about to hand out my Rubiness Academy professor certificate, but then changed my mind and handed out my Amethyst Academy pass.
“Yes, it has been confirmed that he was invited from outside the Academy. “It’s 700 penas, a 30% discount.”
“Here’s the card, I’ll pay in installments.”
I felt sick, but I couldn’t help it.
There was still a long way to go to receive royalties for the development of automobile separators, so it was a huge loss.
“What field would you like to challenge yourself in?”
“I will challenge myself in the field of magic.”
“Here, take the magic chalk and scoreboard. “What would you like your nickname to be?”
“VE… No, I’ll take VL.”
“VL I understand.”
Academic City decided to make this alley a famous place, introducing elements that stimulate the competitive spirit.
It was a score board.
“The challenge time limit is 24 hours. The total score of the questions answered correctly within 24 hours will be posted on Amethyst Academy’s ‘Scholar Board’ along with your nickname.”
The scores for each question were different, and the score weighting method was unique.
If one challenger fails, it is 1 point, if 10 challengers fail, it is 10 points, and so on.
100 points, that is, extremely difficult problems that more than 100 challengers failed to solve, are specifically moved to the ‘Wall of Fame’ located in the very center of the alley.
“Who got the highest score?”
“It is 224 points per day within the past year.”
“What is the highest record ever?”
“It’s 417 points.”
The civil servant yawned and gave me a look as if asking why I was asking such a question.
The look in your eyes that says it’s great for a fool like you to solve even just one problem.
Well, it was a natural reaction.
It will be full of problems that are not meant to be solved outright.
I went inside.
“Wow, I’m dizzy. There are a lot of problems with swordsmanship, but what level of difficulty is it? “I don’t know anything even after looking at it.”
-bar… ! Study Caesar… !
“Professor, where are you going?”
I headed straight to the center of the alley.
I saw a wall painted in gleaming gold.
It was the ‘Wall of Fame’.
Only 100 points of extremely difficult questions are collected.
For reference, the highest score was 100, so there were more than 100 failed challengers.
There were a total of five Wall of Fame questions in the field of magic.
“No, what is the problem? “It’s not a joke, isn’t this something you should not solve at all?”
As Hans said, there were swear words written underneath the question.
-Are you saying this is a problem?
-I Lv. 7 I’m a master, but I can’t even touch it.
-I’m Lv. 8.
-I’m Lv. 9 Ascended? Who is the test taker? Let’s have a fight.
-Did your mom teach you to pay this way?
Looking at the content of the problem, this curse was understandable.
<Transform the three strokes to convert the star’s properties into manipulation.>
<Draw a 1-star star that exceeds the entropy variation of this 7-star star.>
<Draw a star that abstracts the supernova phenomenon observed in another world.>
etc.
Does the answer even exist? These were the problems I wanted to have.
Of course, there was an answer.
If there is no answer in the first place, the problem cannot be registered.
‘Anyway, it’s a bad taste. ‘You’re raising a problem like this.’
I thought of the test taker who gave me this question and laughed.
The nickname was written next to the problem.
<King Genius>
King was a genius.
Although it was a childish nickname, contestants always hide clues in their nicknames to guess their true identity.
”K’ing ‘G’enius. It’s Carl Gritten, based on the first letters.’
It was a name that would make anyone widen their eyes when they heard it.
Because he was that famous.
He was the president of the Amethyst Academy here.
A whopping Lv. Archmage of 8.
When Grandpa Randolph was in his prime, they were fierce rivals.
‘Anyway, this guy is also really eccentric. ‘You childishly enjoy watching people suffer while becoming president.’
I picked up the chalk and started writing the answer below.
“Hey, is there still someone who challenges those problems?”
“You must be a beginner trying for the first time. Leave it alone. “If you do that, you’ll give up right away.”
The other challengers looked at me and laughed.
For your information, my companions and I were intentionally wearing robes, so we couldn’t recognize them.
Either way, I kept moving my hand.
It didn’t take long.
Less than 3 minutes per question?
Seeing me like that, the onlookers turned off their attention.
“It looks like you gave up too soon.”
“That would be wiser. Even if you hang on for no reason, it will be a loss. “Let’s solve other problems too.”
It was after I was left alone like that.
I looked at the scoreboard where the score was reflected.
<VL – 500 points. 14 minutes.>
All were correct!
From Noble mtl dot com
‘Did you say that the previous record was 417 points in 24 hours? It must be a new record for the fastest time.’
This wasn’t enough.
The real ‘accident’ I was about to cause was something else.
I walked towards the empty wall of the alley.
Challengers who score more than 50 points are given the authority to pose a new problem.
Since I got 500 points, I was able to answer ten questions.
‘Betting up to ten is a hassle. ‘Let’s just give five.’
The reason I decided to give five is because there were a total of five questions that could be listed on the Wall of Fame.
I was planning to fill the Wall of Fame entirely with my own problems.
It won’t be that difficult.
“Gyo, professor? “Are you really trying to raise this issue?”
“Aren’t you free to raise any issues?”
“Well, that’s true. Regardless of how difficult this is… .”
Hans swallowed hard and looked around.
“Isn’t this a problem that completely ruins the magic department at Amethyst Academy?!”
I looked at the questions I had been asked.
There was something in common.
These were contents that directly contradicted the theories presented by the professors of the magic department at Amethyst Academy.
No, to put it more bluntly.
‘These are problems that are ignored.’
Yes.
I planned to bring the Amethyst Academy magic department to its knees through this anonymous confrontation.
As a finale, I wrote the nickname at the end of the questions.
Percussion!
V.L.
It was Van Legend.
* * *
Baron Garden.
At the end of the 6th rank, he was a mage who had reached the level of ‘craftsman’ and a senior professor at Amethyst Academy.
As an outstanding wizard and a professor at a prestigious academy, he had a high level of pride in himself and had a hobby.
Whenever I have time, I go to the ‘Sage Board’ and check my Distance of Truth score.
‘hehehe. Monthly first place is still mine with 205 points, right? Because the level of recent questions has been high, it is impossible to get more than 200 points.’
Gaden was a scoundrel on the street of truth.
It’s not just Gaden. Among Amethyst Academy professors, there were few who did not challenge the distance of truth.
The Street of Truth has long been a place of competition among professors.
He boasted about himself with nicknames that revealed his true identity and ignored professors who gave him lower grades.
‘Isn’t this Heim Professor Heim? With only 170 points, what’s the point of bragging? Anyway, it’s low quality.’
On the wise board, the top 10 highest scores are divided into monthly, yearly, and historical categories and are displayed on the top banner.
Baron Garden was currently ranked 1st monthly and 4th yearly.
however.
‘what? ‘Why did my ranking get pushed down?’
It wasn’t even an hour ago, but it has changed to 2nd place per month and 5th place per year!
‘what? 500 points? Score recording takes 14 minutes? Are you kidding me?’
Gaden was upset, but soon calmed down.
It must be an error.
I turned on the communication port and made a call to the Philosopher’s Stone server management office.
“Oh, I’m Professor Gaden. There is an error in the distance of truth score. what? It’s not an error? How many times have you already checked because there are so many inquiries other than mine? “What nonsense!”
bang!
I put down the communication tool and headed straight to the Street of Truth.
The streets were unusually crowded, like Dottegi Market.
Like Gaden, the crowd came running after checking the rankings.
“Oh, Professor Gaden?”
“How did this happen? 500 points? 14 minutes too? “What nonsense?”
“Look at the Wall of Fame over there.”
Gaden widened his eyes.
There was a big X mark on five difficult problems that no one had been able to solve recently.
It means that someone solved those problems.
“Well, those problems were brought up by the president? whoever? “Who is VL?”
“I do not know. This is my first nickname. I don’t think he’s a professor at this academy. Look at the graffiti below.”
-Is this just the level of professors at Amethyst Academy? Is this level of conceit real? <VL>
-The graduate students at Rubines Academy are probably smarter than you. <VL>
Gaden’s face turned red.
“Who dares!”
“That’s not all. “Come here and see.”
There was another group of people gathered in the corner of the alley.
“These are questions written by VL.”
“under!! “This guy!!”
Gaden’s face turned even redder.
This phrase was written from the beginning.
-I will give special instructions to the foolish professors at Amethyst Academy who think they are smart.
The content of the problem was even more shocking.
‘How dare you attack the theory I presented?’
I gritted my teeth and tried to solve the problem.
however.
‘What, what? ‘I can’t solve it.’
Originally, the problem had to be solved by applying the theory published by Gaden.
On the contrary, only the problems with Gaden’s published theory were highlighted.
‘My theory is wrong?’
Gaden’s eyes trembled.
At that moment, this question appeared in the minds of everyone in the city, including Gaden.
‘Who the hell is VL?’
Van Legend’s nickname took the academic city by storm.
