Genius Is Taught by Geniuses

125 – Sealing

After dinner, it was time to part ways.

Rain Rover grabbed Tigris’ hem, pulled him, and said.

“Oh, I think I left my handbag in that restaurant. Come with me.”

Tigris glanced at Amoris and nodded.

“Yes. Okay. Amoris-sama, I’m sorry, but would you mind waiting in the carriage for a while?”

“yes. I know.”

Tigris looked at Rakan and said.

“You too, stay in the wagon for a while. I will take you to the Imperial University.”

“Oh, yes. All right.”

Rain Rover and Tigris went back into the dining room, and Rakan quickly opened the wagon door.

“Come up first. Amoris.”

“thanks.”

Amoris took Rakan’s hand and climbed into the carriage.

As Amoris grabbed Rakan’s soft hand, he felt his body heat up again, but he endured it with superhuman patience.

Amoris got into the chariot and sat facing Rakando Amoris.

Amoris couldn’t look straight into Rakan’s eyes.

Even my heart was beating like crazy, and I was worried that Rakan might listen.

Amoris took a deep breath.

Now Rakan and Pereira are clearly different people.

Of course, Kim Yu-shin is a person with the same soul, but he is another human being who cannot share the happy memories and sad pains with Amoris.

Amoris knows the principle of the soul very well, but when he sees Rakan’s clear eyes, he thinks of Ferreira, and his heart aches.

It hurts so much, but conflicting feelings that I want this moment to last forever, Amoris had no choice but to crumple the pretty skirt that Rakan had bought.

“That Amoris.”

“yes?!”

Amoris shrugged in surprise when Rakan suddenly called.

“I don’t think I could say thank you to him today. Did you have a bit of trouble today?”

Amoris shook his head in embarrassment.

“no. no. I really enjoyed today.”

“I was worried that I made a mistake because it was my first time dating him. I wonder if this is a date…”

“Oh right. It was a date.”

Amoris’s face blushed at the word “date”.

“I guess you didn’t feel like a date either. I’m sorry. I’m not good at things like that.”

“no. no. So, what I want to say is…”

Amoris had lived for over 100 years, but standing in front of Rakan seemed like a shy teenage girl.

My head is dazed and I have a fever, so I can’t make a rational decision.

The eloquence that drove Tigris down, the skill of the merchant who had been living as an amulet merchant in Fogwood for over 100 years, and the mental strength that became hardened through the terrible war with the Demon King.

Nothing was useless in front of Rakan.

“Did you love him that much?”

When the word love came out of Rakan’s mouth, Amoris stiffened in surprise.

“I’m not the only one who doesn’t care. Whenever Amoris talked about him, I could feel that he was both very happy and sad. I thought that because I am the same Korean that Amoris loved, he seems to think of me as special.”

At Rakan’s words, Amoris didn’t say anything.

Were you such a quick-witted person?

No, because he’s a Pereira, is it because he’s quick-witted?

Or did you notice it because of the system’s search capabilities?

Whatever it was, Amoris was ashamed of being naked.

“That’s… I’m sorry. Mr. Rakan.”

“What do you have to be sorry for? I asked for a date at will, bought food, and bought clothes. Rather, I am sorry.”

“no. no. It’s not that…”

“I think quests are very important. By overcoming quests, you get points and you can become stronger with those points, and when you get stronger, you can help others. But I don’t want to break the quest even by inflicting severe pain on others. The reason I overcome the quest is because I want to help others, not to cause damage.”

Rakan said, scratching his head.

“So this will never happen again. I’m sorry for bothering you.”

Amoris was read by Pereira from Rakan’s pure eyes and words.

-Sorry. If I had saved you sooner, I could have saved you from getting sick. sorry. I’m still weak

-I’d rather have a hard time if I’m having a hard time. I don’t want to make others hard.

-You can collect points later. But they need me now.

– Amoris. In the end, I’m so glad you were by my side.

Amoris looked into Rakan’s eyes and said.

“Mr. Yushin Kim.”

“······yes?”

“As Yushin said, I was upset today. Every time I see Mr. Yushin, I keep thinking of him. But it wasn’t just annoying. Thanks to Yushin, it was so much fun to remember the happy days with that person.”

Amoris did not know if he was speaking these words to Pereira or Rakan.

I was just saying what my heart told me to do.

“And you said you’re sorry, but I’m the one you have to say sorry to. You are thinking of that person freely through Mr. Yushin. Rather, it is something that Yushin would be offended by. So······.”

A single tear that Amoris had been holding back fell like a pearl.

“Please don’t feel sorry for me.”

Yushin did not know what Amoris meant by telling her not to be sorry because she could not understand the memories and memories that Amoris had with Pereira.

And why does he call himself Yushin and not Rakan?

Rakan was frustrated by that veil of ignorance, but on the other hand, Amoris was saddened by the sight of his heart.

It was because he knew that letting go of a loved one and surviving alone in the present life would be a terrible thing, even if he had never experienced it.

Rakan took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Amoris.

“······thanks. I really hate it today. Why do you keep crying in trouble?”

“I’m fine.”

“It’s fine. I can see everyone getting restless.”

“Uh… well… well…”

Rakan coughed and looked away for nothing.

The way she looked far away when in trouble was the same as Ferreira, so Amoris burst into tears for nothing, but laughed hard.

“Is this your first time seeing a woman cry?”

“Yes. Well, most of the women I’ve met looked at me pathetic or angry. Well, Princess Rain Rover is aware of my circumstances, so it’s okay.”

“Are you looking at me pathetic? Mr. Rakan? why?”

“Most of the quests do a lot of things that can cause some discomfort to those women.”

“For example?”

“Well…whether it’s confessing to a girl you meet for the first time to just take off your shirt and write a letter to you, or run through the Imperial University parade in your panties… or something like that.”

Amoris doubted his ears for a moment.

“·······What kind of quests are there? And why did you do that?”

“There were only quests that I could usually do. Otherwise, it will be difficult to collect points normally.”

Amoris was perplexed.

Why did Rakan receive such a quest?

Amoris wasn’t with Pereira in the early days, but I didn’t hear that he gave up the quest to run without his shirt or confess to a woman.

“Then why did you ask me out on a date?”

“That’s why I said it with the intention of being slapped in the face. It was my first time asking for a date, but when I said this, most women ignored it or did it. But since you knew I had a quest, I thought maybe you could accept it.”

“Uh, I guess it is.”

Amoris remembered the rules of the quest he had heard from Ferreira.

First, the system will never give you a quest that you can’t overcome.

Second, the system doesn’t give out quests for no reason.

Third, if you overcome a quest with outrageous content, an urgent or huge-scale quest awaits you.

Fourth, the system hints at the future as a quest.

Fifth, the system that gives out quests is not an absolute god.

According to these rules, every quest that Rakan has done so far has a reason.

Amoris looked at Rakan with a serious expression and said.

“Mr. Rakan.”

“yes.”

“Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t be in trouble again?”

“yes. Right.”

“Is it because there is a quest to go on a date with me again?”

Rakan hesitated because it was difficult to speak.

“If it’s hard to say, you don’t have to. But I hope you don’t forget that I am someone who can help Rakan unconditionally. No matter what Rakan’s reputation or my past is.”

“Well······.”

Rakan thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“no. It wasn’t meant to be a date.”

“Then what?”

Rakan said while looking at the message in front of him.

“It is written that you should learn sealing art from Mr. Amoris.”

[New Quest!]

Learn Sealing from Amoris.

compensation: ???

Hearing those words, Amoris’ eyes began to cool.

next day.

Tigris, Rain Rover, and Amoris gathered in the study room and had tea.

“Did you sleep well yesterday?”

“No, I haven’t even slept.”

In fact, Amoris looked very tired, as if he hadn’t slept.

“If the bed was uncomfortable, we will change you to another hotel.”

“Nope. I was just thinking about a lot of things yesterday.”

“Are you worried?”

Amoris spoke for a while and then opened his mouth.

“I have long thought of the system as a god-like being who appeared to save the continent. And I thought of Pereira as a savior, a warrior, sent by that god.”

“If it’s a god… are you talking about Goddess Lux?”

“In the case of a human, it would be Lux, from the point of view of a Dwarf it would be Vulcan, and from the point of view of the elves, it would be Masaray from the point of view of the beasts of the world. Anyway, it wasn’t that it was important, it was that I thought of the system as a divine revelation.”

“Are you there? Isn’t that a quest?”

Amoris nodded her head slightly.

“Think about it. Wherever there were quests, there were always good citizens who needed Pereira’s help. At the same time, it was full of things that could feed the Demon King. If that is not a revelation from God, what is it?”

I heard it and it was

If Rakan hadn’t told us about the quests and systems, Tigris and Rain Rover could have been thought of as revelations from an unknown god.

“Tigris, you might think that quests are different from divine revelation. because you don’t believe in god But whether the system is god or not, you’re sure to help when Rakan’s quest comes up. no?”

Tigris meekly admitted.

No matter how strange the content, I’ve helped Rakan’s quest until now.

“yes. you’re right.”

“In the past, people like you who thought the system as a separate entity and law different from God followed the system as they wanted because it was purely a quest.

“Come to think of it, there have been several instances in fairy tales and old historical books that say that Pereira acted under a divine revelation.”

“That’s the quest. Ferreira and the Allies acted to overcome the quest given by the system whenever possible. Just like Rakan and you guys now.”

Tigris took a sip of the tea and opened his mouth.

“It kind of sounds like we are being swayed by the system.”

“I’m not saying it’s bad to listen to the system. The system doesn’t want the continent to perish. So, Pereira was given the quest to stop the Demon King, and Rakan was given the quest to stop Uno. The important thing is that we were working as intended by the system.”

Amoris went on to say:

“Perhaps the fact that Rakan received a quest to find an intruder yesterday was also the intention of the system for Rakan to meet with me. And the system would have known that I was going to find out that Rakan was the reincarnation of Pereira, and would have accepted a date request.”

“So, did you act so strange the first time you saw Rakan yesterday?”

Amoris opened his eyes and said.

“It’s not that it’s strange, is it because that’s who I really am? You too live for 100 years. Then that old-fashioned personality will also change 180 degrees?”

Amoris said with a cough.

“greatness! I didn’t recognize Rakan the first time I saw it either. It’s complicated, but it’s hard to recognize the same soul right away because the wavelength of the soul changes slightly depending on the body it contains, and the personality and talents also change. But there is one memory of the soul that never changes. It is the memory of ‘Kim Yu-shin’.”

“Then, were you sure when you revealed that it was Kim Yu-shin?”

“right. Of course, I knew Pereira’s soul as soon as I saw it, because I’ve seen it the most.”

Amoris took out a notebook on the desk and started writing down quests in chronological order.

[Intruder Search Quest] → [Date Request]

“So, to recap, the system must have crafted a quest for Rakan to meet me in this order. But the system won’t give you the quest for no reason. No matter how difficult the quest is, send it out with a clear purpose. For example, studying magic or studying swordsmanship or something like that.”

“Then you are saying that there must be some other reason that made Rakan meet Amoris-sama and ask him out on a date?”

“right. There must be a clear reason for why Rakan had taken off his jacket and ran through the parade ground or made a strange confession to a woman he was meeting for the first time.”

“Amoris-sama, do you know the reason?”

Amoris hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth.

“I think you know the reason, but I’ll keep my words short. I think it’s too close to a delusion. But I think the whole series of processes is related to yesterday’s work. Then the composition will be like this.”

Amoris took up a pen and wrote more.

[Strange Quest] → [Intruder Search Quest] → [Date Request]

“Then let me ask you a question. Why did Rakan ask me out on a date? If Rakan needed my help, I was willing to give my life to help. Because Rakan is the reincarnation of Pereira. But does the system want Rakan and I to be more than an intimate relationship?”

“······I do not know.”

“The system wants me to teach Rakan the sealing technique that sealed the Demon King. Because I can’t teach anyone the art of sealing.”

Tigris’ expression hardened at the word sealing.

“Did Rakan ask you to teach me sealing art?”

Amoris nodded.

“Rakan knew I was emotionally shaken. If I had asked you to teach me the art of sealing using my shaking emotions, I might have taught you. But Rakan honestly confessed that the system gave me a quest to learn the art of sealing. Thank you for making me feel better.”

Amoris further wrote in his notebook.

[Strange Quest] → [Intruder Search Quest] → [Date Request] → [Sealing]

“This is the last time. So, what was the system’s intention to make Rakan learn the sealing art? The compensation is not properly set and there is no deadline.”

Rain Rover knew the answer.

“Maybe to seal Uno…?”

“It is something that Uno, the Demon King, and the human head cannot understand. In order to seal them, I had no choice but to seal them with the power of time, which is fair to all. And, of course, the price of that sealing art is the caster himself.”

Amoris’ eyes burned with anger.

“Now the system is trying to seal Yushin with Uno again. It’s never acceptable for dirt to get in my eyes. Why does Yushin have to sacrifice for this world again?”

Amoris’ wrath was so dense that even Tigris was terrifying.

“I am telling you this because I believe in you two. So, as soon as even a ‘b’ of sealing art comes out of their mouths, I will take Yushin and leave. Because there is no second episode for Yushin.”
