Greetings, Mister Principal

Chapter 65: Star Observation Tower Explosion

By the time Reiner and Claire returned to Torrendo in an airship, and then returned to Luna Nova Magical Academy in a carriage, a lot of affairs had accumulated in the academy.

The first thing Reiner did was to send samples of Cola to the headquarters of Mercury Balance for process testing. After everything was in order, the production line would be entrusted to two alchemy workshops in Rainbow Tower.

The second thing was that Piram's trial had ended. In the final verdict, most of Piram's property was handed over to Reiner and Antoine as compensation. They needed time to deal with these ownerless alchemy workshops.

The third thing was that several franchise agreements signed between Alchemy workshops and Reiner around Prester had also been piled up. Among them, it involved the issue of sharing and sales networks, which required a certain amount of time to study.

Of course, there was a fourth thing, but it belonged to Reiner's personal affairs. He needed to find time to participate in the magic test and obtain the rank of the first ring mage. He had decided to join the mercury balance, so this matter was also a relatively high priority.

And the last thing, which was the most important thing, was the reconstruction work of Luna Nova Magical Academy. The review committee would come one month later. At that time, they could not show them a dilapidated Luna Nova Magical Academy. The construction work would not be completed overnight. So when he made the first pot of gold with cola, Reiner had already started work in this matter.

Reiner came to the dilapidated tower at a corner of the college. This was once an observatory used to teach astrology spells. However, the school's professor of this major later resigned, so the course was abolished. This place gradually declined and was occupied by weeds.

"The observatory is not only an important facility for teaching about astrology, but it is also a magical building in itself. A standard-scale observatory can increase the speed of magic condensing in the area by 5%."

The person around Reiner said. He who was not tall had a beard and looked more like a dwarf. This was Craftsman Mage Groot Karat from Prester.

Unlike ordinary architects, his main job was to repair magical buildings. Buildings such as the alchemy workshop and the observatory required not only building designs, but also had to fit in with the local flow of magic. To put it simply, it was to choose the right locations for the right buildings. So Reiner went through many contacts to find Groot and made a restoration plan for Luna Nova Magical Academy.

"This sounds pretty good."

Reiner suddenly felt like playing simulation construction games. He wondered that maybe after the construction of the observatory, an astrologer would be attracted to join the academy.

Aside from joking, Groot told Reiner that a magic academy must have at least an alchemy workshop, an observatory, an element tower, and a nursery garden. If there was a course dedicated to necromancy study, he would need a cemetery as well. The transformation course would need an animal pen. These buildings were not just ordinary buildings. From the perspective of magic, those areas would condense the magic power suitable for the growth of the mage.

Of course, the cost of constructing these magic buildings was much more expensive. Fortunately, Luna Nova Magical Academy originally had these buildings, but they were temporarily abandoned, and the cost of repairing them was much less.

"Don't worry, Principal Ian Gray, we will be able to finish our work as soon as a week."

Groot smiled, and stretched out his hand to gesture on the tower full of greenery.

"The architecture here is very sophisticated. In the past, I always wanted to see Luna Nova Magical Academy up close. You know, this place has thousands of years of history. These precious ancient buildings condense the efforts and knowledge of the craftsmen at that time. They are..."

Boom!

A loud noise interrupted Groot's conversation with Reiner. He and Groot looked at the corner of the tall tower with a thousand years of history in front of them. A cloud of smoke burst out, and several heavy stones flew out and hit the ground, leaving behind deep craters.

"...priceless treasures... Ah!!!!"

Groot almost collapsed. He stepped forward quickly and knelt down beside the huge rock, as if looking at a dying wounded man and let out a low whimper.

"What is going on?"

Reiner subconsciously touched the ring on his finger. Although there were no other changes for the time being, he could not rule out the possibility of an attack.

However, amid the smoke, a figure hurriedly ran over, and Reiner took a closer look and discovered that it was a student from Luna Nova Magical Academy.

Dana Christine, a third-grade student. In Reiner's memory, she was not a student who had good grades.

"Uh, Mr. Principal."

This girl wore a pointed cap and had flaxen curly hair. Her emerald eyes were now looking nervous. She pinched the corners of her clothes with both hands, lowered her head, not daring to look at Reiner directly.

"Miss Dana, what are you doing here, are you hurt?"

Reiner asked, looking up and down the student, she didn't seem to be injured except for the dust on her robe.

"No, no, I am not injured..."

As if surprised that Reiner still remembered her name, Dana was dazed, then hesitated for a while before continuing.

"Actually, it was me who caused this explosion."

After speaking, she immediately hugged her head and squatted on the ground, worried that Reiner would try to hit her.

However, the expected reprimand did not appear, instead, Reiner said in a surprised tone.

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

"Huh?"

Dana tilted her head, a little confused.

At this time, Groot awakened from the sorrow of the destruction of the historic site. He looked at the rocks all over the floor and was a little surprised.

"You did this by yourself?"

These stones were extremely heavy, and the building of the observatory itself was still stable, but now, a hole could be clearly seen on the side of the tower, which could only be achieved by a destructive power.

But the student in front of him was just a mage apprentice with average grades.

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

Dana said hesitantly. She pulled the brim of her hat embarrassedly.

"Practicing magic? You work very hard. What kind of magic were you practicing?"

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

"Wisp Bursts, or is it The Wizard's Hand, or Produce Flame?"

"Uh, it's Illumination magic, Mr. Principal..."

Dana's hat was lowered even more, and she did not dare to look directly at Reiner.

"......" "......"

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

"Mr. Groot, if I remember correctly, the illumination spell should be a zero-ring spell used for lighting. It doesn't have this kind of destructive power, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Ian Gray, in my memory, this spell shouldn't have this kind of power."

Groot answered after weighing his words.

"So, Miss Dana, your illumination magic really has such a destructive power?"

Reiner asked again. He found it hard to believe.

"Actually, Mr. Principal..."

Dana reminded slightly timidly.

"...it was caused by my failure to cast the spell."
