Meet the principal

By the time Reiner and Claire took the airship back to Toronto and then took the carriage back to Crescent College, a lot of things had already accumulated.

The first point is that Reiner needs to send Coke samples to the headquarters of Mercury Balance for process testing. Once everything is in order, the production line will be handed over to the two alchemy workshops located in Rainbow Tower for production.

The second point is that Piram’s trial has ended. In the final verdict, most of Piram’s property was delivered to Rainer and Antoine as compensation. They need time to deal with these alchemy workshops without owners. .

The third point is that there are also several franchise agreements signed by the alchemy workshops around Prest and Reiner. This involves issues of sharing and sales network, which requires a certain amount of energy to study.

Of course there is a fourth point, but it is Reiner's personal matter. He needs to find time to take the magic test and obtain the rank of a first-level mage. He has decided to join Mercury Scale, so this matter has a higher priority.

Finally, and what needs to be solved most, is the building reconstruction work of Crescent College. The review committee will come in a month. They cannot see a dilapidated Crescent College by then, and the construction work cannot be completed overnight. , so when Coke made its first pot of gold, Reiner had already started working on this aspect.

Reiner came to a corner of the college, a dilapidated tower. It was once an observatory used to teach astrology. However, later, the teacher of the school's major resigned and the course was abolished. The place gradually declined and was replaced by miscellaneous materials. Grass takes over.

"Not only can the observatory provide teaching related to astrology, but it is also a magical building in itself. A standard-sized observatory can increase the speed of magic condensation in the area by five percent."

According to people around Reiner, he is short, has a beard, and looks more like a dwarf. This is the craftsman mage Gro Karat from Prest.

Different from ordinary architects, he is responsible for the repair of magic buildings full-time. Buildings such as alchemy workshops and star observatories not only need ordinary designs, but also must fit in with the flow of local magic. To simply understand, it depends on Feng Shui, so Lai Na found Grotto and worked out a restoration plan for Crescent College.

"That sounds good."

Reiner suddenly felt like playing a construction simulation game. He was a little curious whether after building the observatory, an astrologer would announce every week that this week was Mineral Week, and the output of all minerals would be doubled.

Joking aside, Gro told Reiner that a magic school must have at least an alchemy workshop, an observatory, an elemental tower, and a nursery. If it specializes in necromancy, it also needs a cemetery. Changes The department needs a stable. These buildings are not just ordinary buildings, but from a magic point of view, this area condenses the magic power suitable for the growth of the mage. In this way, the students in the school can better draw strength.

Of course, the cost of building these magical buildings is much more expensive. Fortunately, Crescent College already had these buildings, but they were temporarily abandoned, so the cost of repairing them was much less.

"Don't worry, Principal Ian Gray, we can complete the work in as soon as a week."

Grotto smiled and stretched out his hand to gesture on the tower covered with green plants.

"The architecture here is very sophisticated. I have always wanted to appreciate Crescent College up close. You know, the history here can be thousands of years old. These precious ancient buildings condensed the efforts of the craftsmen at that time. They are... ..."

Boom——

A loud noise interrupted Gro's conversation. He and Reiner just watched helplessly at the corner of the tall tower with a history of thousands of years. A burst of smoke came out, and several heavy stones flew out and hit the ground, leaving behind Deep depression.

"...It's a priceless treasure...ahhhhh!!!"

Gro almost collapsed,

He walked forward quickly and knelt down next to the huge stone, as if looking at a dying wounded man, and let out a low whimper.

"what's the situation?"

Reiner subconsciously touched the ring between his fingers. Although there was no other abnormal movement for the time being, he could not rule out the possibility of an attack.

However, in the smoke, a figure hurried over, and Reiner took a closer look and realized that it was a student from Crescent College.

Dana Kristen is a third-grade student. In Reiner's impression, she is not considered one of those with good grades.

"Uh, Mr. Principal."

This girl wore a pointed hat, had flaxen curly hair, and a pair of emerald eyes with an anxious look. She held the corners of her clothes with both hands and looked at Reiner with lowered eyes.

"Danna-san, what are you doing here? Are you not injured?"

Reiner asked, looking the student up and down. Apart from a lot of dust on her robes, she looked uninjured.

"No, no, I'm not hurt..."

Dana seemed surprised that Reiner still remembered her name. Dana was stunned for a moment, then hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"Actually, I caused this explosion."

After saying that, she immediately crouched down with her head in her hands, worried that Reiner would teach her a lesson.

However, the expected accountability did not appear. Instead, Reiner said in a surprised tone.

"Wow, it's incredible that you can create such a massive explosion."

"well?"

Dana tilted her head, confused.

At this time, Groo woke up from the sadness of the ruins of the ancient ruins. He looked at the stones on the ground and was a little surprised.

"You alone made this happen?"

These stones are extremely heavy, and the building of the observatory itself is quite stable, but now, you can clearly see that there is a hole on the side of the tower. This is a destructive force that can only be achieved with high explosives.

The student in front of him was just a mage apprentice with mediocre grades.

"Well, I was originally practicing magic here, but the release failed, which led to this result."

Dana said hesitantly, and pulled the brim of her hat sheepishly.

"Do you practice magic? You work really hard. What kind of magic do you practice?"

Reiner remembered that the third grade students had not been exposed to any offensive magic yet, so he was a little curious.

"Air burst, mage's hand, or fire ignition?"

"Uh, it's illumination, Mr. Principal..."

The brim of Dana's hat was lowered, and she didn't dare to look directly at Reiner.

"..." "..."

The two were silent, and after a long time, Reiner asked uncertainly.

"Mr. Gro, if I remember correctly, the illumination spell should be a zero-ring spell used for lighting. It has no offensive properties, right?"

"That's right, Mr. Iain Gray, in my memory, this spell should not be offensive."

Gro thought carefully about his words before answering.

"So, Dana-san, you caused such destructive power by simply releasing the light technique?"

Reiner confirmed, he couldn't believe it.

"To be precise, Mr. Principal..."

Dana reminded timidly.

"...This is caused by my failure to cast a spell."
