“Lloyd, you crazy man.”
Since she had cleared the Asinta crypt with Lloyd, she knew the value of this thing better than me.
That I have an expensive necklace on my neck, which I obtained from clearing the basement, which is described as the most dangerous in the world, is something that amazes Dabin, who still believes that I am the evil “Eveliana.”
She furrowed her eyebrows as if she saw something disgusting, then she spoke with a resigned face:
“So, shall we get started? Come and sit here.”
I hesitantly sat on the chair in front of the table she pointed to.
When I approached, she clenched her fist so hard that her bones cracked.
Did you remember Eveliana as soon as you saw my face?
When I saw the muscles in Dabin's arm tense, terror began to seep through me again.
It's the arm that was smashing walls like crazy with Lloyd yesterday.
If I were hit with that arm, or that hand, an ordinary person like me would definitely die.
I will never be rude.
I tried to calm my trembling body, and looked at the books that Dabin had provided.
“The History of Hilderius”, “The Genealogy of the History of the Empire”, and others.
Starting from the history books that I learned in the orphanage in the past, and ending with familiar names that I had seen on “The Earth,” such as: “General Mathematics” and “Understanding Literature.”
On the other hand, there were books that I did not understand a single word of, such as: “Reflections on measuring paths and boundaries according to Ruinaka’s theory.”
Dabin took out a stack of papers and placed them in front of me after calmly displaying the books:
“Before we start the lesson, I have to see your level, so solve these papers. I will give you a full hour, which is enough time.”
No matter how I look at it, it looks like a stack of 50 papers, and yet it says one hour.
It's too little time to even read it.
Moreover, the words written on the papers are too many...
Do you think a genius witch should solve this fate?
Otherwise, she wouldn't have thrown me test papers full of ambiguous and difficult problems to solve in one hour.
Under the pressure of Dabin's frightening gaze, I picked up the pen and began solving the first problem.
- Calculating the value of mana in the outer ring generated inside the fireball, and the adjustment value to measure energy control.
Yes? M...what?
An obstacle since the first issue.
What on earth is this?
I have read it many times, but I do not know whether this is the language of the empire or not.
Well, in essay questions when we don't know the answer, there are three numbers I usually write: (0, -1, 1).
So I chose number (1).
Now, the second issue...
- Discuss the location of the second-order variable and the resulting paradox according to the Remercano school.
What nonsense is this?
The third... the fourth...
Every time I turned the pages, I couldn't help but be shocked.
What is this talk? Among the dozens of pages of test questions, there was not a single problem that I could understand.
I spent the entire hour staring at the puzzling questions, then handed the answer sheets to Dabin.
Dabin's face hardened as she received the papers and asked why I was so late.
“How come there is not a single solution for all these problems? And don’t tell me that you wrote this as the correct answer?”
Dabin pressed hard on the pen in her hand and drew a line over the question I randomly chose to answer.
“Wrong answer.”
Karkh!
In the end, the grade I got was zero.
“Are you kidding? Don’t you really know even these basic things?”
Dabin left the room quickly, feeling extremely angry.
Really, it was because I didn't know a single letter, really?
Even if I took on the body of a genius witch who understood ten things if I knew one thing, since I had lived as a commoner for ten years, the amount of knowledge I had learned was limited.
I cannot even compare to the knowledge of the heroine who received her education from private teachers and read countless books.
But, this is one thing and that is another thing.
While I was frustrated by the heroine's scolding, Dabin entered again, breathing sharply and carrying a pile of papers.
“You, solve this.”
Fortunately, the paper I submitted was full of issues I knew.
It looks like they lowered the difficulty level by one notch.
I started solving problems comfortably.
“This time, solve it within 30 minutes.”
No matter how many issues I know, it has exceeded 100.
How do I solve this in 30 minutes...?
I looked at Dabin reproachfully, but I was terrified by her glowing eyes, so I immediately lowered my head and began the solution.
How much time has passed?
“Time is up.”
I pulled out the papers, half of which I had not completed, and began to correct.
The first page was all circles (correct).
Greatness possessed me for a moment, saying: This body is truly genius, but starting from the second page, it began to rain signs of error.
Endless rain, and with the occasional snow, Dabin's facial expressions began to become bloodier.
“Haaah.”
Dabin wiped her forehead and sighed as she looked at the test paper.
Then she looked at me sharply and said:
“You are doing this on purpose to make me angry, right? Or do you really not know? Is this a degree?”
On the front of the paper I submitted, the number (23/100) was written.
Me, how did I pass the healers exam?
While I was feeling despair at this poor grade that I had obtained for the first time since my reincarnation, Dabin sighed again and shook her head.
"I'm defeated. I'm completely defeated by your acting. If you're going to keep playing the fool like this, fine, I'll play along with you."
Dabin quickly carried the heavy books and left.
After a short while, she returned and presented me with a children’s book with beautiful illustrations.
Basic information that children learn easily.
For... just a moment! Do you mean that my level is equal to the children's level?
I am someone who was once called a genius in the orphanage and temple!
I looked at Dabin in annoyance, and my eyes met her gaze filled with the desire to kill.
M... scary!
I lowered my head and said:
“I will study… hard!”
And thus began the hell of studying.
For the first week, the light did not go out in the “Emerald Room” located on the second floor of the Hilderius family mansion until after midnight.
Bam!
Dabin hit the table with her fist.
Although she tried to control her strength and hit lightly, her strength was so great that the table shook violently.
“Wrong! Are you brainless? You should solve this matter by applying the ‘Sesnya’ theory!”
Kay trembled as she looked at the matter and almost cried:
“You solved it by applying Cesnya’s theory…?”
“Eveliana, don’t tell me that you are doing this on purpose to spite me?”
If Eveliana's plan was to make Dabin feel upset to the point of exploding, her foolishness had worked early on.
Dabin remembered the learning ability she had seen over the past week and confirmed:
Yes, this woman is definitely not Eveliana.
I have explained it to her ten times, and yet she does not know this simple theory?
Eveliana, who has high pride, will not tolerate being called “stupid” or “foolish” once or twice, let alone for an entire week.
It's not possible to play the fool with such sincerity for an entire week.
Dabin looked at Kai.
Tears were streaming in her beautiful eyes.
It looked like she was torturing a small, weak animal.
It's impossible to be Eveliana.
Even what happened yesterday was evidence.
While she was teaching her as she does today, one of the maids brought sweets on the orders of the Duke’s wife.
At that time, Dabin screamed loudly because of the wrong solution method presented by Kay, which made the maid terrified and spilled tea on Kay’s clothes and on the carpet.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
While the maid was apologizing in pain, Kay immediately asked her if she was okay, and began wiping the broken cup and the dirty carpet.
Dabin even asked her to sit down, saying that this was the work of the employees.
If the person in front of her had been Eveliana before going back in time, then based on her personality, she would have cut off the maid's wrists, ankles, and even her neck.
Could this all be an act?
The woman in front of her was enduring situations that were impossible for Eveliana, who had high pride, to overcome silently.
Yes, Lloyd was right.
This woman is not Eveliana.
The word “Eveliana” was erased from Dabin’s mind.
Immediately, a new anxiety arose in her mind.
She's completely stupid, dangerously stupid.
Otherwise, it would not have been possible for a whole week to pass by and she had not yet mastered Sisnya’s book of advanced theories.
Will you become the Lady of Hilderius Palace with this mind? Idiot Lloyd and a foolish wife, what a two-century man.
Dabin began to worry about Hilderius' future.
Of course, the reason for this concern was that Dabin's standards were very high.
Although it started from basic information for children, Kai's mind, which had absorbed the theories of royal etiquette, all the noble families in the empire, and the advanced theories of basic sciences in one week, was considered Very smart for the average person.
The problem was that this was Dabin's first time teaching someone else, so her standard of comparison was Eveliana.
For Dabin, who had witnessed Eveliana's overwhelming genius before going back in time, and who had gained the title of “Swordmaster” and become a witch of the Seventh Circle at a young age after going back, Kai was “foolish.”
It's like the feeling of seeing someone saying: 1+1=2, but I don't know why it's 2!
Dabin closed the book and looked at Kay, who was crying bitterly.
“Today’s lesson ends here. Rest.”
But the tears did not dry from Kai's eyes.
“Why are you crying?”
Only the enemies who were trembling in terror were crying in front of Dabin.
And if the enemy cries? His neck should have been cut.
But the woman in front of her was not an enemy.
Dabin never knew how to calm someone who was crying.
“Sniffle, Miss Dabin taught me, but not knowing… it makes me feel bad.”
Is it because I said she is “brainless”?
When I thought about it, my words were harsh.
Without reason? Even monsters have minds.
Dabin felt sorry and wanted to comfort her, so she said:
"It's okay. So what if you're a little foolish? You hunted down Lloyd, the idiot who has a lot of money. Even if you're a fool, you can live just fine as long as you have a lot of money."
As soon as she finished speaking, Kai burst into tears.
Did I make a mistake again?
Dabin was confused by the sound of crying that became stronger.
At that moment, blood began to flow from Kay's nose, as she was crying bitterly.
