Chapter 20 - I Think I'm a Genius (2)
The interior of Professor Karen's office was neat and tidy.
Just the necessary furniture, neatly organized documents, and a cleanly wiped floor.
In that immaculate space, Professor Karen silently gazed at Lumian.
Although he hadn't drawn out his Aura, a strange pressure emanated from his body.
Perhaps an ordinary cadet would have been crushed by this atmosphere and broken out in a cold sweat. If it had been a student from the humanities and not a knight cadet, even breathing would have been uncomfortable.

But Lumian was different.
He was very calm and composed.

Professor Karen was once again surprised by his appearance.
'Come to think of it, he didn't even sweat much. And that was while facing Teoro Shutgaren.'
It was a series of surprises. But Karen didn't show it and put on an even more solemn expression.
His eyes became sharper, and the pressure intensified. He, who had fully revealed the presence of a veteran knight, said to Lumian.

"I'll ask you straight. What happened during the break?"
"..."
Lumian did not answer immediately.
Regardless of Karen's serious expression, he comfortably reached out, picked up a glass, and leisurely took a sip of water.

After that, he clearly stated what he had to say.
"I trained."

"...Be more specific."
"I trained hard, so hard that my hands bled and I coughed up blood. And so, my skills improved."
"...Do you call that an answer?"
Karen's momentum grew even stronger.
Now it looked as if he was about to fight a cadet. It was because he thought this audacious cadet was making fun of him.
'It's impossible to grow this much in such a short time!'

It was a perfectly common-sense thought.
It was extremely difficult to build up strong physical strength in just a few months, and it was close to impossible to develop the swordsmanship skills to overwhelm Teoro.
Aura? Aura was out of the question.
Even if his own soul entered Lumian's body and he devoted himself to Aura cultivation for a year, he couldn't show that much growth.
In the end, it meant that that guy had been hiding his level for a whole year.
WHOOOOSH
En̊ù ṁ ä . і̄ d
Professor Karen drew out his Aura.
This won't do. I need stronger pressure to get the truth out of that guy's mouth.

Thinking that, he was about to open his mouth, staring at Lumian with an intense gaze.
Words flowed out of Lumian's mouth half a beat faster.
"I am not deceiving you, Professor. I'm just saying this in case, but I have never hidden my skills before. I truly did swing my sword and build up my Aura with all my might until before the semester started, no, even after the semester started. And so, it turned out like this."
"...And you expect me to believe that?"
Е̇ n̂ ü ḿ а̄ .і̊ d̄
"It's true. How could I hide my skills from the professors' eyes for a whole year? No, even if I could hide them, why would I do that? There's no reason to."
"..."
Professor Karen remained silent after hearing Lumian's words.
Honestly, he couldn't think of anything to refute. As Lumian said, no matter how outstanding that guy was, there was no way he could deceive the eyes of a formal knight like him.

'Well, it's absurd to think that his dazed appearance last year was an act. The Lumian back then... was definitely the worst failure in the academy. I can guarantee that.'
Damn it, then what the hell is it?
W̄ е bn̄ ov́е l _Е́ n̊ū m ӑ
Confusion spread across Professor Karen's face.
He wasn't hiding his skills.
But the skill Lumian showed just now is not normal. This child's pace of development is so tremendous that it cannot be explained by magic potions, the teachings of a master, or harsh training.
Just then, a word popped out of Lumian's mouth.
It was a tone so relaxed that it almost sounded a little annoyed.
"It might sound a little arrogant for me to say this, but..."

"...?"
"I think... I'm a genius."
"..."
Professor Karen stared at Lumian with a dumbfounded expression.
He was so dumbfounded that he couldn't speak.
Lumian, who had sneaked a peek at his expression, continued to speak.
Ẁе̌b̌ nо̊ v̇ èl̆ Е ǹ ũ m̄а̇
"Honestly, I can't believe it myself. I had no desire to learn swordsmanship, and I thought I had no talent, so I didn't work hard for a whole year... But when I thought I couldn't live like this anymore and changed my mindset and tried, at some point, it became like this. It's true."
"..."

"I think I actually had a talent for the sword."
It was a lie so shameless it could pierce the heavens.
But Lumian had no hesitation.
There was no way he could say, 'I'm actually the eunuch knight Ryan Promhart of Jenas, and when I died and woke up, I found myself in the body of a boy I don't even know. Since he happens to be well-endowed, I'm thinking of happily living a second life.'
Е n ů ṁà . і̌d
It was also awkward to make excuses like he had been hiding his skills until now or that he had become stronger after eating a magic potion. That was an even more unrealistic story.
He thought it would be better to say that he had belatedly realized his unbelievable talent.
No, actually, even this was a hastily thought-out excuse.
'In the first place, it's not like I did anything wrong, so what can they do.'

Believe it if you want, if not, then don't.
Lumian put on a defiant expression for all to see.
W e bṅо v́еĺ Е n̈ u ḿ а
Professor Karen stared intently into his eyes.
"..."
"..."
After a staring contest that lasted for about 30 seconds, an order to leave fell from Karen's lips.
"You may leave now."
"Yes, sir."

Lumian, who had stood up from his seat, bowed his head low.
Even after he left the room, Professor Karen continued to think silently for a long time.
About 10 minutes later.
A hollow laugh burst from his lips.
"Haha, hahaha..."
The laughter didn't stop. It couldn't be stopped.
Е̄ n̄ u ḿ a . i d̈
He couldn't stand how funny both Lumian, who audaciously said his piece, and himself, who was inclined to believe Lumian's words, were.
'He thinks he's a genius? Himself? Well, it's not unreasonable. If he achieved that much growth in that short amount of time, he's more than qualified to use the word genius.'

"Two geniuses have already appeared in one year."
Still with a hint of laughter, Professor Karen muttered to himself.
He had a feeling that this semester would be much more interesting than the last.

'Did it go well? I don't know.'
Lumian, who had left the professor's office, shook his head.
It was a problem without an answer anyway, and he didn't want to think about it anymore. If it were his past life, maybe, but he wanted to live this life happily and comfortably without complicated thoughts.
Lumian hummed as he left the building where the professor's office was located.

There was one person waiting for him.
"Were you waiting for me?"
Ėn̂ ũ m̃ а
"Yes."
"It would have been better if a girl was waiting."
"You're good with words at times like this. In front of a real girl..."
"Sorry. Let's not talk about that time. But why were you waiting? Do you have something to ask?"
Lumian said, looking at Teoro.
He thought he might have questions since they had just finished sparring. Or perhaps he had come because of the Aura handling method he had taught him over the weekend.

But that was not the case.
Teoro revealed the reason he had come.
"No. I've already received a lot of help. This time, it's my turn to help."
"Huh? You're going to help me? What..."
"Today wasn't bad."
"Ah, well, that's..."
Е̂ n̂ü mа̃ . і̂.d̀
Lumian made an embarrassed expression.
Of course, it had been a decent day. The surprised expressions of the female students he had seen before following Professor Karen were still unforgettable.

But to create that situation, Lumian had mercilessly crushed Teoro. Hearing these words from the person himself made him feel very strange.
However, Teoro seemed completely unconcerned about it.
He continued to lead the conversation.
"Of course, if you keep going like this, the reactions around you will change drastically. No, they've already changed drastically. Even the guys who weren't interested in you are all talking about you."

"Really? Haha..."
"But I thought it would be better to have a good concept to go with it, rather than just being strong."
"Concept?"
"Yes. A concept. Let's create a charm point that will be popular with girls."

"Ooh... I never thought of that..."
Lumian looked at Teoro with a greatly enlightened expression.
E̊ ǹ um а̄
He was definitely right.
Rather than just being strong, having a solid concept that could highlight that strength would be more effective with girls.
One character already came to mind. Lumian's eyes sparkled as he said to Teoro.
"A bit of a bad boy? Style? Wouldn't that be good?"
"..."
"A rough personality, kind of cold and dismissive towards girls, but he's good at what he does. Aren't there quite a lot of girls who have a fantasy about that?"

"...Did you read some strange novel somewhere?"
"What, you don't like that?"
Lumian asked with a sullen expression. Teoro let out a deep sigh and answered his words.
"It's not that it's a completely unrealistic story, but... hmm..."
"Then isn't it good? What's the problem?"
"That... first of all, you have to be extremely handsome. That's the basic condition."
Е n̄u m̀ ă
"..."
"No, I'm not saying you're ugly... You're perfectly fine too. But to pull off that kind of concept, it's a bit... hmm. And your face has a gentle and kind feel, so that kind of strong image doesn't suit you."

Teoro soothed Lumian's feelings with clumsy consideration, and Lumian tried to forget the previous conversation with a reluctant expression.
He asked again.
"Then, what kind of image suits me? Is there anything good?"
"You're hmm... it seems right to go with a model student style."

"A model student?"
"Yes. Not just a model student, but a model student with a warm feeling who is skilled, sincere, and not only cares about himself but also considers and takes care of others."
"A model student with a warm feeling?"
"Yes. The warm part is important."

Teoro said, emphasizing the word 'warm'.
Hearing those words, Lumian stroked his chin and put on a thoughtful expression.
Ѐnūm а. і d̄
And with a doubtful face, he said to Teoro.
"Will such a boring style work? Shouldn't it be better to go with the bad boy type?"
"..."
Teoro shook his head.
Lumian was beyond his imagination in both swordsmanship and romance.
