Meet the principal

Reiner learned from the books that the spell casting process in this world is very detailed.

According to the theory of modern magic, there are three steps to release magic.

The first step is to build a model. Each spell has a unique model. The model is composed of nodes and pathways for magic flow. The embodied spell model is the basis of the magic circle. This step is also to determine the type of spell. Once the model is constructed completed, it cannot be changed unless the cast is canceled.

The second step is to mobilize the magic power. Here you need to use your own magic power to light up the nodes in the spell model and guide the magic power from the outside into it. The biggest difference between modern magic and ancient magic is here. In ancient magic, the magic used in the spells Magic power is completely supplied by the caster, so the reserve and control of magic power are extremely high. However, since His Excellency Herman Braggs developed the magic model and adopted the method of external drainage to construct magic, people only need to have the ability to light up the nodes. Magic can release magic.

The third step is to cast magic in the traditional sense. The magic power is formed by the spell model, and eventually interferes with reality and forms various phenomena. In this step, the caster does not need to do much. He only needs to maintain the supply of magic power for the magic to operate normally.

In ancient magic, what mages need to do is to temporarily construct the magic they want to cast in their minds. What they imagine is not a spell model, but a more specific image, such as fire, such as frost. Therefore, there are achievements in ancient times. A mage not only requires amazing magic power reserves and control, but also a strong imagination. The ability to understand everything cannot be achieved overnight.

There are many reasons for the failure of spell casting. Some people are unable to fully light up the nodes due to insufficient storage and control of magic power, and more people are unable to construct the spell model perfectly.

Take the simplest zero-ring spell, fire-kindling, as an example. The universal basic model of this spell has six spell nodes. These nodes are connected by eleven magic channels. The positions of these nodes need to be captured accurately. Pretty high concentration, of course, and for a trained mage, it's pretty simple.

Although this kind of magic can only raise a small flame at the fingertips that is very easy to extinguish, it also achieves the purpose of interfering with reality.

The illumination technique was simpler, so Reiner did not dare to say that Dana, who even failed to cast the illumination technique, was a normal student.

What's more, the huge destructive power caused by the failure of this spell is definitely not something ordinary people can do.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Principal, I will work hard to make money to compensate for the damage. I didn't mean it."

Dana was like a cowardly hamster at this time, afraid that Reiner would eat him alive. The principal's deeds had not yet spread among the students, so in Dana's mind, Reiner was still quite scary.

"No need, Mr. Groh just needs to use his design talent, right?"

Reiner has no intention of holding Dana accountable. Besides, he can't really let the student make money to compensate for these... Wait, how do students make money?

Before his mind could turn to some indescribable cause, Reiner remembered that this Dana Kristen was a work-study student and was responsible for some chores such as cleaning.

"Haha, I don't know if it can be restored, but since Mr. Ian Gray gave me this opportunity, I will give it a try."

Grotto smiled and saw that Reiner did not want to question the student, so he followed suit.

"Well, classmate Dana, I have a few experiments recently and may need your help. How about you go to Classroom 301 on the third floor of the teaching tower at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon?"

"Uh, can I say no?"

Dana said immediately, making Reiner a little embarrassed.

"Can you tell me the reason?"

"Because that's the way it goes, the powerful principal asks female students to come to the classroom.

I wanted to have individual tutoring or something, but I took the opportunity to do some indescribable things..."

"Wait a minute, where did you see these things?"

Reiner shook his head. How has the cultural industry in this world developed? Why does every girl have knowledge in this area that goes beyond common sense?

"While cleaning, I occasionally pick up a few novels."

That's probably Claire's lost treasure. Thinking of this, Reiner said.

"Teacher Claire will also be with you, you can rest assured."

"What if Teacher Claire has fallen and is trying to control me under your instructions?"

"This kind of plot doesn't exist!"

Reiner felt ashamed. He felt that he needed to read what those girls' novels were about. No matter how he read them, they seemed to contain very strong content.

"Forget it, it's up to you. It's just that, Dana-san, I've been researching new magic recently, and I just saw the invitation you sent out because you were distressed about the failure of spell casting. If you refuse, I won't force you."

Reiner is actually preparing to take the spell test and become a first-level mage. For this reason, his recent focus, in addition to repairing the school, has been on building spell models.

He could tell at a glance that Dana's failure in casting spells was most likely due to a failure in constructing the spell model. Judging from the astonishing damage caused after that failure, she was definitely not a person with insufficient magic power.

Therefore, Reiner needed to verify his theory. Since he happened to meet Dana, he extended an invitation. Of course, if the other party did not agree, he could also verify it himself.

"Well......"

Dana was a little hesitant. On the one hand, Reiner's inherent impression made her a little worried. On the other hand, the temptation to improve her spellcasting was too great, and she couldn't make a decision for the moment.

"You go back and think about it carefully. I will be waiting in that classroom tomorrow."

When Reiner saw this, he didn't force it and waved his hand to let Dana leave.

"Mr. Ian Gray's educational method is very unique. If my teacher had been like this, I'm afraid I would have continued to move forward on the academic road."

Grotto praised, but it was unclear how sincere he was.

"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Gro. I would like to ask how long it will take to repair this star observation tower according to the current progress?"

"Depending on the damage, the construction period will be extended by three days at most, which means it can be completed in ten days."

Gro thought for a moment and then replied.

"This is really great."

Reiner thought it would be extended longer, but it seems that the current damage is not a big problem. He relies on Coca-Cola's income and now has a considerable amount of funds in his hands. It is not too difficult to rebuild the campus.

"After this Star Observation Tower, I think I need your help, Mr. Gro, to repair other buildings."

"Ready to serve."
