At the beginning, unlimited skill tree!

But smart people are smart because they like to think too much...

And always thinking the worst.

Seeing 'Nina' who had been successfully misled and lost the first step in the beginning, the elves felt as if they were being burned on a fire rack, but they were helpless.

Afterwards, Riku and Nina played a gambling game, mainly playing fast chess.

There is also a reason for choosing the chess method. This will reduce the time for both parties to think and reduce the chance of the other party lying.

Weaving a lie takes more time to complete the lie.

Seeing the elves here is even worse.

Riku holds the title of [The Zeroth Protection of the Void], and is now ready to steal important confidential information from their elven ancestors? ! And that forest elf just agreed?

...! ! !

This is the one who is known as the most intelligent magician among their elven ancestors...the forest elves!

For a moment, the elves' eyes turned red.

In my heart, I began to question the title of 'the smartest'.

"So... before the game starts, can you please read it over to me again?"

"——?"

After saying that, Riku still showed a smile that could see through everything and raised his palm.

That is——

"——[Swear to the Covenant]..."

The game starts soon——

Riku suddenly spoke before playing chess, asking Nina to restore the chessboard to its original state first. As White, he should take the first step.

This deceit made Nina, who was deliberately pretending to be stupid, feel dumbfounded and her expression was slightly distorted.

With all his strength—the deception disguised as an eighth-level art was easily seen through?

The forest elf known as Nina thought to herself that it would be dangerous to test an opponent with unknown origins, and then restored the chess piece to its original state.

This is another habitual thought. Riku has already calculated all the tricks and ideas of the forest elf in front of him in his mind.

Later in the game, the two won and lost each other, and both received a lot of "satisfactory" news.

Actually——

But everyone and the elves saw that Riku was almost using his own hands to get a lot of things from the conversation with the elves that the elves thought Riku already 'know', but in fact Riku didn't know. matter.

And the information that Riku guided the other party to want to know became the information that Riku originally wanted to tell the elf species.

The scene in front of them made the elves despair. They almost cried at the stupidity of this ancestor.

As for the other humans and the orcs Yuba and the others, because the race being talked about has nothing to do with them, they actually watched it with gusto.

…

——Why did Riku choose this elf species as the target of contact?

In fact, it's not that the elf is too stupid, it's just that her character is too easy to understand.

She is seemingly the editor of the Elf decisive battle weapon [Void Zero Protection], and she also possesses huge intelligence.

He is also an extremely good magician and a smart person - a person with superior [intelligence].

Because of this, she was chosen.

The result is [intelligence] based on magic technology - a guarantee that can destroy everything at this critical moment. (Forest Elf)

And the [intelligence] of human beings who survive from stupidity and weakness and rely on intelligence itself as their lifeline. (human species)

To compete intellectually with human beings - with the weakest opponent, and to attack the enemy with shortcomings is a completely pointless struggle.

If he was a truly strong man, he wouldn't have to worry so much and would just kill him when they met - that's what Riku thought.

But the other party didn’t——

Because I dare not! Because they are afraid that he is a more superior race.

It is precisely because of this half-baked power that when that stupid thing is sealed, the so-called forest elves delusionally use [intelligence] to compete with humans... they are no match at all!

Too stupid and too weak to boast. With this thought in mind, Riku showed a completely confident attitude.

...and the other side.

Bang bang bang! The elves were so slapped in the face that it hurt.

——Isn’t talking about the elves like this just like talking about them?

‘That’s enough! Riku! That's too much! ’

For a while, the more the elves looked at it, the more they felt that the ancestor was too honest and honest...

They were all deceived into this by the other party, ah! It should be a very simple matter, but why can this forest elf (ancestor) be able to figure out so many things and reveal the opponent's identity with a direct magic attack?

What kind of game are you playing? You are too vigilant!

The elves at this moment did not realize at all that they were the ones who really liked to think about things.

Taking the story as reality, it’s hard to say which one is more stupid than the elf being teased by Riku.

However, Homura, a troubadour, couldn't explain it, and no one would have thought that not a single word in the entire epic was "real".

[The magic system lost because of the Flügel - you re-weave a new system from it, and boast that it is better than before. I respect your pride. As long as you beat me, I will explain it in detail. So what bets can you offer? 】Riku continued to tease the opponent's last sanity while making the next move.

I saw the elf named Nina biting her nails and racking her brains to think.

"——[Void Zero Protection] The possible number of current uses and the information on the aircraft that can be carried, how about this?"

"Your speed of understanding is really helpful. You are worthy of being the smartest person among the elves."

…

Powerless and hopeless.

"!!!" Seeing this, the elves had completely given up struggling.

Especially Riku's words "He is worthy of being the smartest person among the elves".

Are you sure this isn't sarcasm?

And after Riku asked again, Nina let everyone know that it was actually very serious for her to bet on this kind of information.

If other forest elves knew about it, it would be directly defined as a crime of rebellion. Even the abbreviated court is omitted, and the execution is carried out directly.

so--

"All such important information was used to gamble with Riku. It's over... I seem to have seen the ending." A certain elf saw the description in the book at this moment, and Riku was snickering in his heart, and got a lot of "free" The information provided!

The strategic importance of [Void Zero Protection] has risen again in Riku's mind.

After that, Riku deliberately made a few wrong moves and lost, allowing Nina to discover the loophole.

This gave the elves a little hope and spirit.

If the forest elf (ancestor) stopped now, it would still be too late! Before any more important information is revealed.

Now that she realizes something is wrong, she will definitely request to cancel the game!

However, the elves still underestimated Riku.

When Nina questioned, Riku directly and generously admitted that he had deliberately lost several games.

Even a brief lie made Nina believe Riku and stop pursuing these issues.

... Deliberately moving out chess pieces that are obviously going to lose, this step is also within Riku's plan.

It was originally a loophole for the other party to discover...

If this elf couldn't find anything, Riku would have a headache!

...?

...Xiami?

The elves were in deep astonishment - dumbfounded.

Is the loophole you finally discovered a flaw you deliberately exposed? And that was also part of your plan?

Look at Riku who has everything under control, and then look at the elf who thinks he is thoughtful and has seen through Riku's thoughts.

The elves trembled all over, and for a moment they deeply experienced the despair of being crushed by intelligence!

...Is this still a person?

Chapter 392: Elves: I’m not! I don't! Say no more!

The self-esteem and pride of the forest elves were trampled over and over again.

Unfortunately, the ancestor in the book has not even figured out what he was really deceived about.

--miserable! It’s so miserable!

The elves couldn't bear to watch any more.

but……

Although Nina still didn't understand Riku's true purpose, her speech and IQ were being suppressed, and she felt very bad now.

Something must be done to save the situation.

Thinking of this——

"——By the way~" Suddenly her tone——no, even her character——

"[Mr. Ghost]... Sure enough, there are things I don't know~!" He spoke in a very pleasant tone.

She was proud from the bottom of her heart.

However, this pride soon made her "descendants" who had spanned countless worlds and eras feel ashamed and ashamed.

"Nina Klebb is a pseudonym, my real name is——"

As if reminiscent of the warmth of a furnace, the elf said with a gentle smile:

"It's so red. Nirvalen~!"

She chuckled.

"This is my true face - have you seen through this acting skill?"

For a moment, it was as if she had changed into a different person, Nina - not really red, Nirvalian showed a teasing smile, looking relaxed.

However, Riku lowered his head, smiled bitterly... and answered.

"Yeah, I've seen through it a long time ago."

"..."

"Have I ever called you——[Nina]?"

grass!

Zhenhong was so angry that she wanted to raise her middle finger.

Zhenhong Nirvalen is not an idiot, indeed... Think about it carefully, even if the other party knows that he is the person in charge of [Void Zero Protection] from some unknown source.

I don't necessarily know her name.

Even developers and theory advocates record such important things in secret codes.

And the name recorded there is not [real name] either.

A smart person like the other party might have guessed this.

"Haha, to be honest, I'm really angry right now~"

The first elf magician, who considered himself an actor, smiled unconvincingly.

The elves covered their faces and couldn't bear to watch.

Please... Sir, stop doing this.

The disgrace has been left to grandma’s house!

Then when I think about this epic, it may be seen by more people from other races in the future, especially those dwarf goblins...
