Greetings, Mister Principal: Tips

After the discussion ended, Director Percival was the first to leave the conference room.

Safros then walked out of the door after neatly folding the papers in his hands.

"Uh, Reiner, how about we go to the restaurant on the first floor for lunch. Lunch is provided here for the staff, so you can enjoy it as you like."

After the burly Bell also left, Igor suggested to Reiner with a smile that eased the atmosphere.

"Okay, I just have something I want to discuss with you, Mr. Igor."

Reiner glanced at Hannah who was still cleaning up, and then followed Igor to the slightly empty restaurant on the first floor.

Bell, who arrived first, occupied a table by himself. There was a surprising amount of food on the table. It seemed that he was not only strong in stature, but also had the same appetite.

Considering who had a bigger appetite, Mr. Bear or Claire, Reiner took a plate full of food and found a dining table with Igor to sit down.

As a gathering place for mid-level mages, the food in the manor is naturally quite abundant, all located in the corner of the restaurant for people to eat at will.

Reiner took a little stew similar to chicken curry, a few slices of white bread, and a small fruit salad. The weather was hot and his appetite was not very good, so he chose something with a stronger taste.

Igor paired the grilled beef ribs with chicken soup. It seems that he will never treat his stomach badly at any time.

"Mr. Igor, has this always been the case here?"

Reiner asked, causing Igor, who was holding a knife and fork to cut the ribs, to stop what he was doing.

"Haha, the food here rotates every day. At least you don't have to worry about getting tired of it during your week here."

Igor answered the question incorrectly, but Reiner followed closely.

"Mr. Igor, I thought you were not like this."

Reiner's words made the smile on Igor's face gradually disappear. He put down his knife and fork, looked at Bell holding a chicken drumstick in the distance and feasting on it, and then he sighed and said.

"Liner, tell the truth, do you know the background of the construction of this place?"

Igor continued to speak before Reiner could answer.

“With the continuous development of magic, especially in recent years, many magic theories in the past can no longer adapt to current research. It can be said that the development speed of magic in the past fifty years has even exceeded that of the past three years. This is all caused by the paper review mechanism for a hundred years."

But with the paper review mechanism, there are also a series of cognitive collapse events. You know, a hundred years ago, people were still frightened by the power of thunder. Thunder and lightning spells have always been one of the most powerful spells. , who would have thought that today, people could use formulas to accurately describe thunder and lightning.

Not all mages can easily accept modern magic theory and many of its subversive cognitions. This is the background of the times.

The emergence of Reiner was, in a sense, an opportunity for the Magic Association to officially start to form a review organization specifically for innovative papers. In fact, this organization only took a few months from planning to actual establishment.

"Everyone here has been transferred here for various reasons. For example, in the Storm Council, I am just an ordinary fourth-ring mage, and I no longer care much about advancement. Ordinary thesis review committees are busy with work and have little time for personal research, but here, I can have a lot of time to do my own things, and the salary is higher."

Spreading his hands, Igor did not shy away from his thoughts.

To put it simply, he came here to stay healthy.

“There are also people who want to read cutting-edge papers to improve their own strength, and there are also people who simply want to change the environment because they are not harmonious with their original colleagues. However, as far as I know, no one really likes to review these papers. 'Innovative' papers only come here."

Igor said, his tone seemed a little helpless, but it was only a subtle emotion.

"To be honest, even if a paper is evaluated as innovative here, the actual academic points obtained will not exceed 50. Because this review committee has just been established, the scoring weight is very low, so everyone will naturally I'm a little tired, so, Reiner, what you did today actually broke the original balance to some extent. I don't care, but some people may not be happy."

"Are you referring to Director Percival?"

Reiner thought of the "advice" the other party gave him, so he asked.

"Haha, Director Percival, he may not care much about this. As far as I know, his focus is actually to continue to be promoted in the Magic Association to obtain more resources and be promoted. This organization is also the one he applied for on his own initiative. Those who come to take charge should probably want to express themselves in front of those Your Excellencies."

Igor said eloquently, for a moment, Reiner suddenly felt that the person sitting in front of him was not a mage who was good at magic, but an aunt who picked vegetables in the backyard, and knew all the tidbits. .

At this time, several people walked into the restaurant. They were wearing black robes, ranging from the first ring to the third ring. They were both men and women.

"Who are these people?"

The arrival of these people made the originally quiet restaurant much noisier and interrupted the conversation between Reiner and Igor, so Reiner looked at Igor who seemed to know everything.

"These are the students of Astor Academy of Advanced Magic. You know Astor Academy of Advanced Magic? Roger is the professor of this academy. These should be his students."

Igor picked up a piece of ribs that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside with a fork, put it into his mouth and tasted it carefully before continuing.

"He used the students' summer internship time to let them come here to assist him in his work, which did not delay his own work."

"Really smart."

Reiner answered, not sure whether it was a compliment or a sarcasm.

The two then chatted about some random topics. Although Reiner agreed on the surface, he was thinking about other things in his heart. ~IndoMTL.com~ Reiner later returned to his own lounge in the manor and took a contented nap. When he came to the office at two o'clock in the afternoon, he found that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room.

"What's wrong?"

He naturally found the good gentleman Igor. Igor shook his head and then pointed to the room next door.

"A low-level mage found us through his father's connections and wanted us to re-review his thesis."

Is there a backdoor for this kind of thing?

Reiner was speechless and looked around the room. Indeed, Director Percival and Roger were not at their seats.

"What paper is it?"

Sitting down, Reiner asked casually.

Igor shrugged helplessly and then replied.

"Perpetual motion machine."
