Chapter 16

Chapter 16. Starting today, I am a genius (5) This necklace is a special necklace that the King personally called and handed over to me, apart from other bounty items.

Artifact.

It is an object that contains a specific magical effect.

The effect varies greatly depending on the enchantment engraved.

At best, there are items that make walking a little easier, while there are also items that are foul play that allow you to exert tremendous power just by holding them.

As expected, magic tools such as artifacts existed in this world as well.

Well, in any world, mysterious objects using magic have always existed.

In the sci-fi world full of fantasy as well as superscience, there were also many inventions that incorporated more amazing technologies than magic.

When I think of them, for some reason this necklace seems to be nothing special.

“What effect does it have?”

My mother asks, looking at the necklace curiously.

“So...

what was the effect?

At that time, I was dozed off and spilled it.

Coincidentally, inside the box, there was an instruction manual written kindly about the effect of this necklace and the laws to be careful.

“It looks like a sage’s necklace.”

Is the name plausible?

As a bonus, a certificate proving that the Mage Tower is genuine is also included.

Artifact also plays a fake version.

Let's see.

I read through the manual.

“It is written that if you wear this around your neck, it will automatically activate your brain.”

“oh? brain'?”

As if not quite understanding what effect it had, Mom put her hand to her cheek and tilted her head.

“If I use this, I can study better or feel less tired. I guess so.”

After hearing my explanation, my mother applauded heartily in admiration.

“That is so convenient.”

I think I know the intention of sending this.

Since I showed my talent for using my brain, I want this to help.

Other than that, is it effective in preventing dementia?

It's sad to think that that's the only effect.

Activating the brain does not end with simply helping to polish academics.

All human activities are instructed by the brain and also calculated.

The same goes for using your body.

Of course, basic physical abilities are essential, but the most important thing is the head.

In order to move efficiently and swiftly, the brain must first make quick judgments.

Therefore, those who practice martial arts indispensably practice mental training.

There are exceptions, but there are not many bad brains among first-class masters.

In other words, a healthy mind makes a healthy body.

Of course, I can make a sound body even if my mind is not sound.

Right.

It seems to be the king's consideration.

I'm famous because I'm famous.

I wondered if it might be helpful.

Obviously this is not a cheap artifact.

Moreover, if it is an object that has an effect on the brain, much more demanding skills are required when considering safety.

In any case, the fact that these things were unloaded means that they received a lot of favor.

I'm really happy that my mom thought so too.

“Hmm?”

However, I turned my head at an angle that would not be seen by my mother and made a subtle face.

Why?

“...how do you use this?”

Unfortunately, the effect range of this necklace, which is said to have an effect on the brain, and the current Hon Yuan Changsei Qigong, which automatically trains my body, completely overlap.

No, to be precise, this artifact is a complete subcompatibility of my technique.

Compared to mine, it's worse than when it's caught in my toenails.

I actually tried it.

Ugh...

it doesn't work.

To be precise, the effect is so weak that you can't even feel it.

This only meant that he was recognized by the king.

I took out the cookies I had hidden in the room and started to mumble.

Moderate sweetness and crispy texture spread in the mouth.

I feel like my brain is alive.

It's a secret to my nanny Chena.

This is because eating sweets outside of snack time is said to be harmful to the body and is strictly monitored.

If the cookie I'm eating right now is caught, I'm sure I'll preach for half a day.

I also obtained these cookies by secretly making a reasonable deal with the chef who works in our palace.

Even if it was a transaction, it was that the cook found out about the lady-in-waiting's taste in moderation.

Anyway, sweet is good.

I feel at ease.

Gourmet is also worthy of entering the three major human needs.

Life is happy when you have a good mouth.

“I’ll eat... I wish it had more variety.”

Eating a cookie made me think of that.

It's not like we're dissing our exclusive chef.

As a chef, his skills are definitely excellent.

They have the skills to skillfully make everything from regular meals to snacks.

It's just that I'm good at it, and that's about it.

“I mean, there is no creativity.”

Of course, the food eaten at the royal palace is excellent.

My taste buds are by no means cheap.

There was a time when I fell in love with all kinds of flavors in my past life, and when I had a little spare time, I was eager to find new flavors and explore food.

Even my tongue rated these dishes as okay.

However, there is no diversity, should we call it the spirit of challenge?

All meat dishes, hardly any fish.

There are few things with strong taste, perhaps because they only pursue elegance.

Well, aside from the diet...

“...More than anything, it's lacking in sweetness.”

What I miss is nothing else, but the sweetness, or sugar.

There is no need for salty, spicy, sour, bitter taste.

The cookies I'm eating right now aren't bad, but the sweetness is ambiguous.

After a little bit of chewing, only the texture of the soft dough remains.

After finishing the cookie, I put my chin on my chin and looked at the empty wrapper.

I want to eat something sweeter.

I tend to like sweets.

As much as she likes the life of sucking honey, she is very reluctant to eat sweet food.

After all, anything sweet is best. Long live the party!

But in this life, I have never met a sugar that could satisfy my soul.

Is it because of a technical problem?

After all, sugar is science.

Natural materials have their limits.

The level of technology here is stuck in the Middle Ages. There is no way that chemical seasonings or sugars have been developed other than natural materials.

It's hopeless.

In that sense, the sci-fi world is fantastic.

Long live chemical seasoning.

Great Party!

It's not just sugar that's disappointing.

High-quality food is good, but I get tired of eating it every day.

Sometimes you just want to indulge your taste buds on the cheap.

Among them, fast food is the most attractive.

I miss that pungent taste.

Especially Coke!

A fantastic drink that satisfies both the stimulating carbonation and the sweetness that makes me suffocate!

However, it would not be at the level of technology necessary to pursue it here.

Just in case, I asked the adults around me several times before, but there was no result.

I'm sincerely sorry.

The long-awaited opportunity to complete a life of playing and eating came, but the most important taste was not satisfied.

After licking my lips, I made up my mind.

good! What's your next goal with that?

The scholar cosplay continued like this, and now what to do next came to mind.
