Decrypting a Key-Based Cipher: Cryptography Seminar Challenge

Delve into deciphering a key-based encrypted message in a cryptography seminar problem. Use simple substitution ciphers to decode the encrypted text and provide the reply using the agreed secret key "freshman." Decrypt, calculate differences, and explore modulo operations.
