Chapter 16: The storm is approaching
Chapter 16: The storm is approaching
The headquarters of the High-Level Magic Council, in the Rainbow Tower, Kanon, who was in a different office from Grimm, also received Reiner's paper.
Kanon was physically strong and was given the nickname "Brown Bear". However, contrary to this nickname, Kanon was a meticulous person that would not miss any details. He was a serious mage.
He also has a fourth-ring level, similar to Grim, and served as a thesis reviewer in the review committee.
Kanon lived a very regular life. After getting up early in the morning, the first thing he did was exercise, followed by meditation, then it was the morning work. At lunchtime, he would take a short nap after lunch, then continue to work in the afternoon. He would go to bed at regular intervals every day and get up at regular intervals. It was just like a precision machine.
He often reviewed papers in the afternoon. So at this time, Kanon held several papers in his hands and started to read from the first paper.
"...Since the heating temperature is not strictly controlled at the level required by the experiment, there will be two situations in the experimental product. This is due to the error caused by human factors, which affects the subsequent conclusions. At the same time, there are also huge omissions in the premise of the hypothesis. The author is recommended to conduct the experiment after sorting out the logic. Hence this paper is not approved."
"The author did not properly distinguish the definition of sulfide, which led to major mistakes in the experiment as a whole. The experiment process was not rigorous, and the purpose of multiple operations was not clearly stated. The author is recommended to write the paper after more attempts. Hence this paper is not approved."
"...The experimental selection angle is unique, the process is standardized, the logic is clear, and the resulting product has obvious different properties, which is worth discussing. However, the research on the resulting product is not too in-depth, which is the weakness of the paper. To sum up, this is a paper worthy of encouragement. It is recommended to award four points for the paper."
Kanon reviewed the same papers as Kanon, but he was obviously much more patient. Even for very bad papers, he would seriously write suggestions for improvement.
After reading the three papers, it was close to the evening. Kanon stood up, went to the tea room at the end of the corridor to make a cup of coffee before returning to the office without a rush. He was ready to review today's last paper.
"Hmm?"
The title of the paper aroused Kanon's curiosity, because from the title, it clearly embodied the concept of new substances, and it also contained thinking about combustion theory.
And the author Reiner Ian Gray's special surname also made Kanon feel a little strange.
He opened the papers, and the first thing that appeared was the table of contents. This neat and uniform arrangement was pleasing to the eyes of Kanon. Regardless of the content, Kanon felt that this format of the thesis should be promoted in the magic council.
However, as the reading progressed, Kanon began to sweat on his forehead.
"How can this be......"
He read this paper as if he was reading the bible of some cult. Every word in it spread in Kanon's brain like a curse. If it weren't because it was a copy, he really would've thought that the writer had hidden some kind of curse spell in this paper.
After reading the paper, Kanon did not speak, but silently came to his laboratory and repeated the experiment process of the paper, and the results obtained were the same as it was written in the paper.
During the whole process, Kanon was very serious, until he confirmed the final conclusion, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It was past his usual dinner time, but Kanon was not thinking that his regular routine had been broken.
Kanon thought for a while and then picked up the paper. His hands were a little shaken, and he tried twice before finally holding the dozens of pages of paper.
The original light paper now looked extremely heavy.
Regardless of what this paper represented, Kanon could already see a storm that ensued. Would this storm destroy the entire magical world after so many towers built over the years, or would it bring a whole new world? Kanon did not know.
He returned to his office, looked at the paper again, then lifted the pen and wrote on a blank piece of parchment.
"Dear Professor Fleming..."
......
When Reiner's thesis caused ripples in the Rainbow Tower, the headquarters of the High-level Magic Council, Reiner himself was unaware of any of it. He looked at the bill handed over by the restaurant owner with some ugly expression.
Claire, who was originally embarrassed, was still quite nervous when they entered the restaurant, but when Reiner said that it was his treat, it seemed to have flipped on some unknown switch of Claire; she suddenly showed a side of her that was completely unknown to Reiner.
"It is you who said that I could order anything."
After confirming this, the young professor ordered a full serving of food that was enough for five people, which attracted the attention of most of the diners in the restaurant.
A few elderly drinkers quickly recognized Claire, and nodded repeatedly while saying, "As expected of little Claire, having such a big appetite as always."
This gave Reiner a seriously bad feeling.
When all the food was served on the table, Reiner realized the seriousness of the bad feeling.
Was she serious?
Reiner couldn't help imagining the following scene: Claire smiled at the table full of food and said to everyone: "Ta-da, this is Claire. Today I am going to challenge a hundred grilled steaks!"
Claire's performance did not disappoint Reiner's imagination after the dishes were served. This beautiful girl finished five servings of food at the same time as Reiner finished his serving. Moreover, seeing Claire's appearance, it was as if she could still eat another five servings. It was probably she also felt embarrassed for eating this much that she didn't continue ordering.
This meal cost Reiner twelve silver coins, which was enough to eat in the school cafeteria for half a month.
The restaurant owner was very happy. He kept praising Claire and asked her to come often in the future. Claire subconsciously nodded and agreed, but when she saw Reiner's expression, she quickly shook her head.
After leaving the restaurant, Reiner and Claire returned to the Antoine Alchemy Workshop and signed a contract with Antoine. In two days, the first batch of Cola would be produced. It was so efficient that Reiner was somewhat impressed by the way this world was developing.It was dusk when the two returned to the academy in a carriage. The students finished their last class and went to the cafeteria to eat together in twos and threes. The setting sun reflected on a somewhat dilapidated square but strangely gave off a somewhat classical flavor.
As soon as Reiner stepped into the academy gate, the alchemy stone statue guarding the entrance of the academy gave him a letter.
On the front were the words "To Mr. Reiner Ian Gray", and the signature on the letter was "'Monthly Alchemist Griffin' Journal Editorial Committee", and a special emblem was printed. It was a scale, with a book at one end and a gem at the other.
"Monthly Alchemist Griffin?"
Reiner had never seen this journal before. In general, these kinds of journals with questionable names were basically small journals with average influence.
"Is it some kind of promotional mail?"
Claire guessed. From time to time, these small journals would send letters to schools and academies asking them to subscribe to their journals.
"Let's read it first."
Reiner released a little magic power according to the memory, confirmed the authenticity of the emblem, and then slowly opened the envelope.
"Article Invitation Letter".
The title of the letter was like this
