It was easy being the best mathematician in the Moroni sector. The second best mathematician was still struggling with integers.
The problem was that Rigel Summerfield spent most of his time tutoring on pre-Algebra, and that was just no fun. Actually, he spent most of his time failing his students from pre-Algebra, since so many creatures had trouble mastering the prerequisites he required for acceptance to his classes.
Of course, any day some better mathematician might pop into the sector and set up shop, threatening his title and prestige. The truth was, Rigel would welcome the competition, and the company. He’d never been able to afford a diatherine ring, and you can only solve your own 4-diff map puzzles so many times.
