The days of learning black magic in another world

The only reason why Riemann restrained himself and did not rush back to the Duke's mansion on the spot to increase the amount of training for Rock Fernandig was——

[Reward Mission [-]]: Strange things in the Chester family

The Chester family has been haunted by "ghosts" recently. First, the sofa cushions disappeared for no reason, which was Mrs. Chester's favorite cushion. There was a tantrum about who lost the cushion, but the innocent parlor maids were undoubtedly all implicated.

Then there is the attic on the west side. Chester's attic is used to store sundries. Usually no one goes up there, but the cleaning maid will go to clean the attic every month.

Strange things happen to this month's cleaning maid.

After she climbed up to the attic, she found herself back outside the mansion after a moment of distraction.

"what--!"

The maid's screams resounded through the Chester mansion.

As a super-veteran aristocrat, the Chester family has always regarded the royal family as upstarts and other nobles as bumpkins. When encountering such a thing, the first reaction of the head of the Chester family was not to ask the Holy See for help, but to hide the matter. The reason is that the Chester family can't bear this kind of "scandal". After all, old people like them think that only their own dirty family can attract demons.

Tsk tsk, they are really lucky, because no matter who the "ghost" is in the attic, the other party does not seem to be an evil spirit. Except for the occasional disappearing food and pillows, and the closed attic, the Chester family is like everything. As if nothing happened, he continued his peaceful life.

But the peace will not last forever. The Chester family thinks they have concealed the strange things in the mansion very well. In fact, someone has already quietly watched them...

[Task rewards (may be obtained)]: experience (a small amount), silver coins (a small amount), [unknown·unknown].

Riemann narrowed his eyes slowly—[Unknown · Unknown], although he didn't know what the system was trying to sell, but he was determined to win this surprise.

The Chester family should be the Chester of Peg Chester.

You don’t need to worry too much about how to come to the door—isn’t it normal for classmates to visit each other?

Riemann opened his eyes and tidied his clothes a little in front of the mirror—it was time to go back.

He did stay in the bathroom for a while, and when he walked back to the corridor, he happened to see Peg Chester standing at the door of the classroom he had just come out of.

Ah... It seems that the students are almost here, Riemann thinks silently.

It seemed that he heard Riemann's footsteps. For some reason, Peg Chester, who was standing at the door and hadn't entered yet, turned his head and looked towards Riemann.

Riemann, who had the idea of ​​"students visiting each other", showed a gentle smile and waved to him.

A trace of complexity and disgust flashed in Chester's long and narrow eyes, and he walked straight into the door without any response to Riemann's greeting.

Riemann froze for a moment and frowned. He thought that when he submitted a manuscript to Mathematics last time, the other party's hostility towards him would disappear.

What are you doing... It's normal for classmates to visit each other, but it would be strange if classmates who don't like each other visit each other... Riemann walked in the door while thinking about how to ease the relationship between the two parties.

Then he was taken aback.

Although he didn't look frightened on the surface.

At least Heller Velen, who was trembling in the crowd, looked much more frightened than he was.

Yes, the crowd.

What Riemann saw was not the classroom he imagined, but a classroom with a dozen classmates and one Mr. Monroe.

Rather——a classroom filled with dozens of people.

Achill Monroe sat in the center of the front row, waved to him, and laughed heartily: "Hi, Riemann, you are here!"

Riemann nodded slightly at Mr. Monroe in a daze.

Sitting at the front is Mr. Monroe with a hearty smile. On his left is an impatient reviewer—Riemann can’t remember his name for a while—and on the right is a A handsome middle-aged man who looks a bit like Peg Chester, so...this row...are all professors.

Behind them are Riemann's classmates. Peg Chester, who had obviously improved his attitude towards him before, is now looking depressed, looking at the middle-aged man who looks somewhat similar to him——Li Man is a little bit pained, which is probably the reason for Chester's sudden change of attitude. He shouldn't feel that he has let his father be humiliated...

And the trembling Heller Villen was surrounded by Chester's followers, and Riemann could only express his sympathy for this.

After that, there are some people who are not familiar, but they are not too unfamiliar, they are students in the second, third and fourth grades of Springs College.

So... Riemann thought a little dazedly—is the whole Springs Academy concentrated here?

Should he say that it's a good thing that Springs only accepts ten students per class?Otherwise, this classroom really can't hold so many people...

Just when he was hesitating whether to start the lecture directly, Mr. Monroe stood up, stood beside Riemann, patted Riemann on the shoulder, and said loudly to everyone present:

"Everyone, I think everyone should be very clear about the reason why I called you here."

"My student, Riemann, just published his original theoretical article a few days ago - about infinite series. This is obviously a field worth exploring. If it goes well, it may create a new discipline of mathematics. Maybe."

"However, it is still not certain who will cultivate this field."

"I communicated with a professor in Sidney's Donick College yesterday. Obviously, Donick College also attaches great importance to this article by Riemann. All their professors have started research and taught it to students. The idea of ​​this article."

"I think, I don't need to say it, everyone knows the gap between me and Donic Academy..."

The impatient reviewer frowned uncomfortably, but still nodded—Yes, Donick College has been the best mathematics college on the mainland for hundreds of years, including Archer Monroe Almost all of the top mathematicians in the school were born in Donic College, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the hegemonic organization in mathematics.

Although they are arrogant, xenophobic, and extremely look down on people outside of Donic Academy, even Achill Monroe has to admit——

What Kania said is right, the professors at Donick College can already start teaching Riemann's article to students, and it is still difficult for Springs College to pick out someone who can understand this article.

If this continues, Riemann will still be the pioneer of infinite series, but the follow-up work will be preempted by the people of Donic Academy.

"...So, I called everyone here today to let Riemann explain his thoughts and ideas to everyone, including our professor. Please listen carefully. After all, it is the one who competes with us for time. Donic Academy."

"Riemann... I know you may think that you can complete all the work of the infinite series by yourself, but..."

Riemann interrupted Achill Monroe's unfinished words: "No, teacher, I have never thought of it this way. It is my honor to share knowledge and thoughts with you."

It’s better to say that this is my original intention, Riemann thought——

Of course, these minutiae work must be handed over to others... Is it necessary for him to write the entire "Mathematical Analysis" by himself? (Even "Mathematical Analysis" is just a super-condensed version...) Who has this spare time...

Although it doesn't make any difference to him whether this follow-up is done by the Donic Academy that Achill Monroe said, or by the people in front of him, but he doesn't mind using it to give Monroe Get a good impression, sir.

"I see what you mean, teacher, then let's begin!"

In the eyes of everyone present, the usually gentle and polite boy suddenly became serious, and even his demeanor changed.

"Everyone, since this is the case, I will no longer explain it in the order in the article."

"That article is just to let you follow my logic more smoothly and understand why I thought of the existence of infinite series."

"Next, I will start with the concept of infinite series, and thoroughly explain to you its definition, properties, and theorems, as well as the direction and scope of application!"

"First we start with the concept of it."

……

Next, Achill Munro felt like he had spent the longest two hours of his life.

The schoolboys he picked up from Battery County showed them a corner of his mind with unstoppable force.

Yes, a corner...

Judging from Riemann's way of explaining, he has not only set up a framework for the concept of infinite series, but also a few words revealed that in order to solve some problems in infinite series, he seems to be still thinking about other theories.

Achill Monroe suddenly felt a little frightened.

Is this really creativity that humans can have...

Fortunately, no one else seems to have noticed this except him, um... they are all struggling to keep up with Riemann's thinking, even the most arrogant reviewer of "Mathematics", Calvin Ross, Frowning tightly, he took out the draft paper and kept recording and calculating...not to mention those poor children.

At the end of the class, Achill Monroe walked towards Riemann with mixed feelings.

"Riemann."

"Huh? What's the matter, teacher? Is it because I didn't speak well?"

"No, no, it's not. It's just... I think I was wrong just now. You really don't need anyone's help to complete your own theory...even if you don't share it with anyone, no Relying on anyone's help, I underestimated you again, sorry, Riemann, maybe... maybe, I shouldn't force you to share your thoughts with everyone."

Riemann raised his head in a panic: "No, teacher, I really don't think so. It's great to have everyone helping together."

He was crazy to finish "Mathematical Analysis" alone, and he is not paranoid like Newton!Inspiring others with an idea and giving a completely perfect definition theorem are completely different things!

Monroe was moved to tears: "Oh! Riemann... my good boy, I have to apologize to you frankly. I used to think that your background would lead to the extreme part of your character. I unconsciously fell into it. You are definitely the most selfless, kind, and sharing person I have ever met..."

Riemann: ...No, I really just want you to give me a free job.

Monroe: "Oh, by the way, and one more thing."

"I just mentioned that I had a correspondence with the professor of Donic College, right? The other party not only mentioned that they are teaching your thesis to students, but also mentioned another thing."

"Perhaps...the Queen of Sidney will send you an invitation soon, inviting you to study at Sidney's Donic Academy, Riemann...do you want to go?"

Achill Monroe looked a little complicated.

Donic Academy... Because he himself graduated from here, he knows it better than anyone else.

Arrogant and genius.

It doesn't just refer to the students of Donic College, because it has gathered too many such students, so it has gathered into the entire arrogant and talented college as a whole.

If Riemann can go to Donic Academy... To be honest, it will indeed stimulate his creativity more than here, after all, the environment is completely different.

But... well, maybe he is really a selfish person, he still hopes that Riemann can stay, even if he is alone, please break that hegemony, after all... he is really fed up with the arrogance of Donic Academy .
