"Sirius was once a talented mage, but he went astray and indulged himself in mathematics, which was not profitable. In his fourth year of enrollment, he still failed to submit a paper that could be passed in any academic journal. thesis, and later, he left school.”
Vice Principal Portordo said, looking at Reiner with some sigh.
"In the world of mages, there are too many examples of this. Every year, many young mages show their potential, but in the end, very few can advance to the intermediate level."
"So, Sirius's paper is about mathematics?"
Reiner heard the implication of Vice Principal Bordo's words, but he didn't pay attention and asked persistently.
"Yes, I can't remember the specific content of that paper. After all, it has been ten years. I only know that it was a paper about mathematics. Although the proof process was very complete, the final result was too ridiculous, so I just Didn’t take it to heart.”
Vice President Portordo has taught hundreds of students and reviewed thousands of papers over the years. Naturally, it is impossible to remember the specific content of Sirius' paper that he only read once.
"Actually, I saw Mr. Sirius's paper cited in a graduation thesis, but unfortunately, in your school's archives, that paper entered the archives because of a financial transaction. They have been inspected and destroyed in previous years.”
"Money transaction?"
Vice Principal Portordo frowned slightly.
"I also know about the cleanup of the archives in the past few years, but Mr. Iain Gray, do you mean that Sirius spent money to have his papers included in the school archives? This is beyond my expectation."
"Why?"
Reiner asked. He was now more interested in Sirius Oldman than his paper. Although he had some vague guesses about the content of Sirius's research, Reiner was still curious about why Sirius came from What happened to the talented genius that Bordo said was so talented that he couldn't even graduate.
"Well, Sirius is a very upright and stubborn guy. He will never change things he believes in. Logically speaking, he will definitely not do this kind of backdoor behavior of spending money."
Vice Principal Portordo said that it was precisely because of Sirius's quality that he felt at ease to hand over his daughter to him.
But unfortunately, the two young people eventually parted ways.
"He is more of a scholar than a mage. If he lived in a world without magic, he should also maintain a research attitude towards knowledge and continue to explore throughout his life. Money, fame, these things It wasn't important to him, so I thought it was a bit strange that he was paying for his papers to be included in the archives."
Of course, Vice Principal Bordo cannot deny that when Sirius fell into that wrong path, his character also changed a lot. If Sirius was originally a persistent and serious mage, then many of his behaviors later became It seemed a bit paranoid, including Vice Principal Portordo's kind suggestion to persuade Sirius to switch to the elemental system to quickly improve his magic power, but Sirius quickly rejected it, which was one of the reasons why Portordo was disappointed with him.
Therefore, it is not completely incomprehensible that Sirius spent money to try to keep his papers in the school archives.
"Let's put this aside, Mr. Ian Gray, do you think Sirius's paper really has practical value? In my opinion, it is an article full of delusions and absurdities, trying to prove that things do not exist in this world. Thesis, what a pity, the proof process is so perfect.”
Vice Principal Portordo sighed, Reiner's visit reminded him of bad memories.
"Whether it has practical value or not, we may need to find this paper to decide."
Reiner said, but then added.
"But Vice President Bordo, I think practical value is not the only criterion for judging whether a theory is excellent."
His words made Vice Principal Portordo frown slightly, as if he had seen Sirius arguing hard that day.
"You and him are so similar. We are both equally young and promising, equally talented, and our views on the world are equally pure and straightforward."
Vice Principal Portordo wanted to say something, but in the end he sighed and spoke in a low voice.
"Vice Principal Bordo, I want to know where Sirius Oldman is now. The information in the student registration office shows that his whereabouts are unknown. The staff told me that I can ask Sirius's tutor. You should know."
Reiner didn't say much about Vice Principal Portordo's evaluation. He asked, looking into the old man's eyes.
But Vice Principal Portordo shook his head.
"I don't know either, Mr. Iain Gray."
He took a sip of the black tea on the table and said.
"Sirius disappeared after leaving school and disappeared. He has not contacted me in the past ten years."
Perhaps to a certain extent, Vice Principal Portordo felt that he was ashamed of Sirius for not being able to pull him out of the quagmire, so after he left the school, he subconsciously did not inquire about Sirius' whereabouts. Gradually, it was buried in the corner of memory, and it was only today that Reiner rediscovered it.
"I guess he may have found a place to continue his research, because if he would have given up, he would have given up long ago."
Thinking of something, Vice Principal Portordo sighed.
"So, Vice Principal Portordo, do you know anyone who knows the whereabouts of Sirius?"
Reiner asked again. Since Sirius had been in school for four years, there must be some classmates and friends who might know his whereabouts.
"Well..."
Vice Principal Bordo thought for a while and seemed to have an idea, but after hesitating for a moment, he fell silent again.
After a while, he answered.
"Sirius doesn't have many friends, and his relationship with his classmates is not very good. The only one who may have some contact is probably Percival."
"Director Percival?"
Reiner leaned forward, somewhat surprised by the coincidence of things.
"Yes, Percival was also my student in the past. He and Sirius entered the academy in the same batch, but Percival did not gradually rise until Sirius faded away."
When Vice Principal Portordo mentioned his son-in-law, his voice became obviously brighter.
"These two people had some exchanges when they were studying under me. Maybe he knows, but over the years, I have never heard Percival mention anything about Sirius."
"Is this so..."
Reiner nodded slightly, but he was even more confused.
