Chapter 211: Magic Research Class (2)

"Alright, all the students are already in your temporary study group. As the saying goes that no magic tool is created without alchemists and craftmasters. So, suppose you want to make something like a magic device. In that case, you will certainly meet with those two points--" Instructor Scarlett gave a short speech after the students had joined the randomly arranged group.

However, at the end of her sentence, she only told the first graders to identify the lab's magic devices and alchemical tools. In that first hour, first-grade students were asked to study with second-grade students.

Near each device was provided with instruction and explanation of the tool's function to avoid confusion. The second graders' task was simply to introduce it while sharing some of their experiences or insights with their juniors.

It was for knowledge and not for immediate experimentation. Meanwhile, the two instructors used that time to prepare for practical classes. The students were asked to go around the lab to see all the objects that were there.

"Senior, what is the function of this thing, and how do we use it? It only states that this small object is used as an output stabilizer in several magic devices that manage stable magic energy." Elena pointed to a small object like a small coin.

In that short lab tour, she had asked several times like a curious little girl. What could she do with that? She didn't know much, and Elysia was the same.

"Hmm... Let me have a look. Oh! This thing. Yes, as stated, it is an energy stabilizer. It is useful for making magic energy output from elemental crystals in certain magic devices to match the creator's wish. Well, although we have never tried anything using this tiny thing." Kyra happily explained to the curious girl after checking the explanation board.

"Then why is it called Chemoss? CMOS? It doesn't work like a battery, um, I mean Volta?" Elena put her hand on her chin as if she was wondering.

"Ah, umm... Nova, why is this energy stabilizer called Chemoss?" Kyra became perplexed by the question. She immediately asked for help. Hearing that, Nova readjusted her glasses before speaking.

"Chemoss is a name taken from chemicals and primos. Primos metal is melted with several chemical substances and reconstituted with several other materials while considering the desired power output. Meanwhile, this Chemoss is only used for magic devices that are used with an output power of not more than two thousand magic energy." Nova explained as if she was someone who liked to enlighten the ignorant.

Elena just nodded absently at that, even though she didn't really understand. Evelyn and four other junior girls also did the same thing. They weren't a craftmaster, let alone an alchemist... So, how could they understand what Nova was saying? Despite that, Elena became curious about one thing.

"Hm, two thousand magic energy? Is there a way to measure the power of that energy? Can it be used to measure a person's magic energy?" Elena represented Elysia for that.

"It exists. You can use a universal identification tool for it or another tool like Luveeda. However, it can only be used to measure the magnitude of the incoming magic energy flow." Nova nodded lightly and looked at Elena.

Elena suddenly had a bright idea. She took Luveeda from her Space Bag to prove it. "I have that. Then, how do I measure the flow of my magic energy with this magic device?"

"Oh, you have Luveeda. Try using that device as if you were going to check your level, Elysia."

Hearing that, Elena did what was asked. She channeled a bit of her magic energy into the dark area on the lower side of the prism. As expected, her level and durability appeared there.

"My level has appeared. Then what should I do now, Senior Nova?" Elena smiled curiously about the function she just found out from Luveeda. This tool was quite versatile.

"Okay, now channel a little more of your magical energy until that information changes. If it's just a tiny fraction, it will only reveal the status of something that has a flow of magic energy." Nova glanced at the prism, then gave further instructions.

At the same time, the other girls were focused on that Luveeda as well. They were also curious about the device used to measure the flow of magic energy.

With enthusiasm and curiosity, Elena immediately put it into practice. She no longer funneled out teeny-weeny splashes, but a little more, and more than a little... Until the desired information appeared.

"Oh, wow! That's a hundred and thereabouts." Elena felt somewhat amazed by the result.

However, when her concentration was slightly distracted, she inadvertently channeled too much of her magic energy. Elena unconsciously continued channeling it little by little until the number that appeared increased, and it suddenly soared so high that a five-digit number appeared.

*crack* *crash*

"Kya!" Elena screamed in shock as Luveeda in her hand cracked and broke. It didn't explode, just broke to pieces and fell to the floor.

"Aahh!" The eleven girls who were observing the Luveeda also screamed in surprise.

'Oh no! the Luveeda shattered to pieces. Sister Elena, are you okay?' Elysia was no less surprised, but she was more worried about Elena. Elysia didn't expect Elena to channel that much magic energy accidentally.

'Uhh, I'm fine, Ely. Just a little scuffed because of the broken glass. It will heal in an instant. But, Your Luveeda is destroyed... Please forgive me, Ely. I didn't mean to...' Elena gave an immediate response. She apologized guiltily, but Elysia immediately interrupted.

'Hssh, everything is fine, it's been destroyed. I don't blame you, Sister Elena.' Elysia let out a sigh of relief. Well, losing that one tool was quite a loss, but that was no reason to blame Elena.

'Sorry.'

'It is okay. Phew, nobody's hurt. Thankfully.' Elysia wiped away the non-existent sweat as she checked all the girls around were safe.

"Ely, are you all right. Are you hurt? Ah, your hand is bleeding. You need medical attention! Do we need to call Priest?" Evelyn immediately returned from her shock. She immediately checked her best friend with a worried and anxious expression.

"I'm fine, silly girl. Look, the wound is gone~" Elena wiped a little blood on her hand, and it disappeared instantly. The wound was healed, only a little blood was left.

"O, oh, all right. Thank Goddess you're fine." Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief. She forgot that her best friend was a blessed Priest.

The sound of the object breaking and the girls' screams attracted all the students' attention. It also received the full attention of the two instructors.

Instructor Scarlett and Instructor Joseph rushed to approach the girl group. When they got to the scene, they only saw twelve healthy female students and broken glass on the floor.

"What happened? Did you destroy something?" Instructor Joseph asked that rather emphatically.

"Forgive us, instructors. It was just Elysia who was trying to check on her Luveeda. However, unexpected things happened, and her Luveeda ended up like this. We didn't break anything in this lab." Kyra defended to calm things down.

"Oh, is that so? Well, on the lab table, nothing was missing. So, you are telling the truth. Is anyone injured? How could a Luveeda shatter to pieces like this..." Instructor Joseph looked at the broken glass and other materials with some sorrow.

For a craftmaster, all magic devices and alchemical tools were unique crafts in his eyes. If one of them was destroyed, it would be equivalent to seeing one death.

"Just now--" Kyra quickly explained to avoid punishment or something.

After a moment of explanation, the instructors simply assumed it was a minor accident from the unexpected. Luveeda shattered to pieces due to malfunction or something.

They refused to believe it was due to the flow of magic from a girl at the Apprentice level that exceeded Luveeda's measurement limit.

Since no one was injured and none of the academy's tools was damaged, everything was fine without any problems. The only loss was borne by the owner of the ruined Luveeda.

Instructor Scarlett simply took all of Luveeda's pieces off the floor with her magic, then wrapped them up to give to Elena.

The class continued as usual as if such a minor accident never happened. Until an hour of studying the unique and particular objects in the lab ended. Instructor Scarlett told the students to return to the study group tables as the practice class was ready to begin.

At each table, magic devices and other tools were readily available for use. Several crystals and other materials were also provided there.

A moment ago, most of the first graders were already quite stunned by the magic devices and alchemy tools in that lab. However, that was nothing compared to the tools that were on their group's table right now. It was time for the practical class to craft something!
