�I know what you�re thinking. We will be the only ones left tired if we try to pry. That guy�s a genius too. The problem is that he�s a different type of genius compared to you.�

�Genius? Yiruki is a genius?�

�Ah! You probably don�t know because you haven�t been here for too long.�

Nate told Shirone who Yiruki was. Contrary to the word genius, his grades were similar to that of Nade�s, but none of his classmates looked down on him for it.

Yiruki was the epitome of a master-of-one human being. He was a genius who received zeros on all subjects that were influenced by emotions, like literature and art. But for subjects that required computational ability, he was a genius who would get full marks with his eyes closed.

At first, the instructors went nuts over Yiruki�s talent and fought over who would be his homeroom instructor and be in charge of him.

However, because of his eccentric personality, most of them gave up and paid no more attention to him.

Nevertheless, talks about him possibly surpassing those in the Advanced class in terms of mathematics arose, and many instructors started to observe him in order to see if he would be promoted in the near future.

Though, if Shirone continued to raise all his subjects together, he would eventually overshadow Yiruki, who tended to cover up his weaknesses with his strongest strengths.

The field Yiruki performed best in was computational physics, which only a limited amount of people with special brain functions could do.

For example, calculating phenomena that occurred in extreme conditions such as absolute zero or high heat in the 100,000,000 degrees range or more using numerical figures.

A person with a brain capable of such calculations often had such a thing called the �Savant Syndrome.�

The possessor of such a brain capable of mechanical calculations beyond the limits of human beings. That was who Yiruki was.

After hearing the explanation, Shirone had an absent-minded look.

If everything Nade said was true, then it was an amazing talent.

�Why is a person like him still in Class 5? No, even if he had no talent, scoring zero makes no sense. Even if he rolled a pencil and took a guess, he should have still gotten a few questions right.�

Nade laughed.

�The thing is, he�s always been like this. About a month ago��

He told the story of Yiruki�s theory test.

In the natural science section, he received perfect scores, but things were a whole lot different for the literature exam. His results were disappointing in the instructor�s eyes.

It was a problem that had an excerpt from a poem called by a poet named Gilberto.

The last verse was �leaf that has fallen in zigzags�, and the question asked the students to answer why the leaf fell that way. Most interpreted it as the poet expressing his fear of death� But that�s not what Yiruki came up with.

[Translator � Anwen]

[Answer] Since the speed of the fluid (in this case, gas) flowing on the surface of the leaf is met by different levels of air resistance, the leaf would move in the direction of the vector with the greatest sum of force exerted by the pressure. Equations using the standard model for the leaf are written below.

�Equations using the standard model for the leaf are written below��

Below that, there was a formula that the one who was grading the test couldn�t even understand. Instructors who knew Yiruki�s personality simply thought it was just Yiruki being himself and passed over it. But Adelia, a literature instructor, could not tolerate it.

As a mother of three, she rushed into the classroom with her plump body. Then in front of Yiruki, she slammed the exam paper down and demanded an explanation.

�Yiruki! What is this?�

�The exam paper.�

�Not that! Look at the answer you wrote! This is a literature test, not a math test!� JrNovels.com
