Greetings, Mister Principal

Reiner had met with this high-level mage at the annual meeting of Mercury Balance before. Although he had not communicated with him, he still remembered his name.

Robert Lizmo, an Eight-ring high-level mage, if Reiner remembered correctly, he should be a rare mage in Mercury Balance who specialized in elemental magic. He was good at the magical construction of air and wind. His most famous magic was the Fourth-ring magic - Lizmo's Vacuum Blast. This spell could instantly create a vacuum in a certain area, using a series of effects brought about by the air pressure difference to quickly kill the enemy.

Most of Lizmo's offensive spells did not have those fancy scenes, but the effect was extremely fearful. Over time, he was also crowned the title of "Quiet Storm".

"You also came to attend the Ernest Convention?"

Lizmo asked. He had no doubt that the winner of the Hohenheim Golden Cup would come to attend this convention. He was even slightly looking forward to it.

After receiving the Hohenheim Golden Cup, Reiner immediately published a paper on mathematics and physics, which indirectly helped Wilder Regens to reach the ninth ring. Now this young apprentice had been closely monitored by several organizations. They all wanted to be the first to see his next new discovery.

Maybe this time, Reiner would publish some shocking papers again.

"Yes, I was invited by His Excellency Demetrius. I came here to learn about Every Excellency's most cutting-edge results, hoping to improve my knowledge."

Reiner did not mention Fina's father's paper and his elemental periodic table. Although Mercury Balance had given him preferential treatment, and Lizmo had also rescued him, now that there were so many people here, Reiner decided not to reveal his purpose at the moment.

"Hehe, learn it to your heart's content. I really envy you, young people. There is a vast world waiting for you to explore and none of you are afraid of it. For high-level mages like us, the more we know, the more we don't know."

The problems that troubled these high-level mages could not be solved, and they would always encounter setbacks time and time again, unable to find the answers they wanted. It was undoubtedly a torment for those who were curious about knowledge.

"Indeed, the knowledge we have is like a circle. The more we know, the bigger the circle, and the more unknowns we will come into contact with."

Reiner said. The more he learned about this world, the more he was fascinated by this world. Whether the woman's spells he saw earlier or Lizmo's spells, they were all unknown and new to Reiner.

"A circle... indeed."

The more Lizmo thought of Reiner's words, the more he felt that this sentence was quite profound.

‘To think that a mage apprentice could have such insight. Demetrius' decision seemed right.' Lizmo thought. He looked at Reiner approvingly and nodded.

"Please enjoy this convention, Reiner Ian Gray."

After finishing saying this, Lizmo flew out of the airport immediately.

As soon as Reiner got off the airship, the woman greeted him.

"You actually know his Excellency Lizmo, who are you?"

She was a little excited, even thinking that her previous judgment of Reiner's strength was wrong, but soon the woman realized that Reiner was indeed a mage apprentice.

"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Reiner Ian Gray." Reiner extended his hand, but his name already made the woman's eyes wide open in shock.

"The youngest recipient of the Hohenheim Golden Cup in history, and the Reiner Ian Gray who invented the polar coordinate system?" The woman said, this series of titles made Reiner feel delighted.

But then he thought about it again, if he had more and more achievements in the future, other people would probably have to spend several minutes reciting the titles.

Reiner thought, nodding slightly. "I don't know if I can know your name?"

He was still a mage apprentice, after all, so he should maintain the necessary respect for a fourth-ring image.

"Tia Phoenix, speaking of it, we are working in the same field."

Tia Phoenix said, holding Reiner's hand. Watching her hand in such a close range, Reiner could clearly see the gorgeous runes on her fine skin. It seemed to be engraved on her body with special ink.

"Working in the same field?"

Reiner didn't understand what the other party meant, and tilted his head in confusion.

"Phoenix School of Magic, I am the principal of this academy, and you are the principal of Luna Nova Magical Academy, so we are working in the same field, right?"

She smiled and explained.

For Reiner, this woman felt like a magic spell; a fiery flame, passionate and straightforward, shining on others all the time. It was no wonder that the otherwise ordinary Phoenix School of Magic would suddenly emerge in the past few years.

"Oh, then if we have a chance, we should share our experience of being a principal."

Reiner said, making Tia smile again.

"No problem, do you know where you will be staying?"

"Mhm, the Mercury Balance has booked the hotel for its members already. I believe that they would also book a room for me."

The Mercury Balance's benefits for internal members were really great. As long as its members had the invitation letter, they would enjoy comprehensive travel services for free, which Reiner was quite satisfied with.

"I'm so envious, the alchemists of Mercury Balance are all rich mages."

Tia said regretfully, and at the same time, she showed the pendant that she hung around her neck, which was engraved with a majestic whirlpool. This was the elemental organization, the logo of the Storm Council. It seemed that Tia was a member of this organization.

"We, the element mage, can only find a place to stay by ourselves."

She shrugged, looking very helpless.

Only now did Reiner learn that in the world of mage, the wealth of mages of different factions was also very different.

As the alchemy focused on experimentation, there were many practical products. Some economically beneficial alchemy products would be quickly produced by major workshops, earning a lot of wealth for alchemy mages, so Mercury Balance was also the richest organization among these organizations.

However, elemental mages usually rely on exploring demiplanes and fighting beasts to earn rewards. Unearthing relics was not only hard, but it was often accompanied by danger, so most elemental mages were not very rich.

Of course, these were the conditions after one became a formal mage. In fact, there were very few apprentices who could become alchemists. Becoming an elemental mage was the final choice for many apprentices.

"Okay, I should leave now. I have to meet a few classmates tonight."

Tia clapped her hands, then waved goodbye to Reiner, and left from the airport exit.

And Reiner, after adjusting the clothes that had been messed up by the airflow before, stepped forward and arrived at Ernest, the city that was currently occupied by mages
