So the personnel preparations are complete.

We absolutely must accomplish something big in these three months.

The great battle to dispel rumors begins!

Even without a job transfer event, I will still live earnestly [Chapter 94] Dye (Part 3)

Chapter 94: Dyeing (Part 3)

……

After having dinner with Xilufei, we returned to the dormitory. After taking off my coat, I went straight to my bedroom, pounced on the bed, closed my eyes, and began to sort out my plans for the next three months.

When Merlin asked me and Sylphie to change the bad rumors about us within three months, I actually had no idea what to do.

But then it suddenly occurred to me that the reason why Mr. Merlin was respected was not just because of his advanced age, but because he had taught magic for decades and had students all over the world, and because he had made great contributions to magic research in the Magic Guild.

So, I came up with a concrete idea to change the bad rumors about me and Sylphie.

Instead of avoiding revealing our identities, we should take measures that benefit everyone after revealing them, and change people's perceptions of us through concrete actions.

Although we may not reach the same level as Merlin, because Sylphie and I only had three months, unlike Merlin who had decades to accumulate reputation.

However, if we only make small changes in our daily lives and let everyone know about the convenience that Shilufi and I bring, we will definitely achieve good results within three months.

During my two days at the magic university, I discovered that many facilities were not very complete. For example, there were no blackboards in the classrooms and no streetlights on the roads.

This undoubtedly created a demand for my plan.

The existence of this demand greatly facilitated my plan, and Merlin also said that we could use the Magic Association's resources freely during this period, which made the three-month plan even more feasible.

Three months later, when my plan has benefited a certain number of people, it will be just in time for the opening ceremony.

Sylphie's speech as the representative of the new students will no longer be just a speech, but will become a beneficial publicity opportunity for both me and Sylphie.

Getting back to the main point, let's take the blackboard and streetlights as examples:

The absence of blackboards in the school has caused great inconvenience to the teachers' work, even though they may have long been accustomed to life without blackboards, since blackboards have never existed in the world.

Because the teachers' teaching method involves holding a book with the content they want to teach, and preparing the magic props they need for the class on the lectern, there is no blackboard to show any theoretical content, and students have to figure out the logic on their own.

Putting aside the students' own comprehension, without the presentation of blackboard writing, the course content can easily become boring. In my previous life, I saw in the news that when a university teacher was lecturing, a large number of students in the back of the classroom would fall asleep. This school must also be a common sight.

Moreover, according to what Timothy had told me before, at this school, being able to reach the upper level in any of the four types of attack magic is already considered a good achievement among graduates.

It's also possible that I'm experiencing survivorship bias, because Silphi, Loki, and I are all Saint-level magicians, and therefore I feel that magicians should all be at a higher level.

[Note: Survivorship bias, also translated as "survivor bias" or "survivor-on-the-job bias," is a common logical fallacy ("fallacy," not "bias"). It refers to only seeing the results produced after a certain selection process, without recognizing the selection process itself, and thus ignoring the crucial information that was filtered out.]

For example, aside from Alice and Kyrie I've met, they can at most master basic magic, and have no hope of mastering intermediate magic. Even among the five people in [counter arrow], only Timothy can barely be considered an advanced magician.

Of course, this may be due to talent, but the purpose of establishing a magic university must be to cultivate magic talents and enable more people to use basic, intermediate, advanced, and even higher levels of magic.

However, the number of people who can reach the higher levels is so small that it is difficult to find enough.

Therefore, I think the lack of a blackboard in the teaching methods is very likely a major factor contributing to the low number of students from magic universities reaching higher levels.

Another thing is streetlights. I really don't want to recall my experiences of going out at night. Without streetlights, I could only rely on fire magic in my palms to walk little by little, which was like walking through a maze.

It's relatively easy for someone like me who is quite skilled in magic, but there are many people with poor magic fundamentals who don't know how to use fire magic. They can only carry things like oil lamps and walk around at night.

I wonder what it's like in the other seasons of Charlotte. It's the dead of winter now, the wind is strong and it's extremely cold at night. The oil in the lamp could easily freeze or the flame could be blown out. And the hand holding the lamp might get frostbite.

Without streetlights, going out at night is an extremely painful experience.

There are still many inconveniences at the magic university, such as the lack of flush toilets and kotatsu (heated tables). So I had a lot to do during these three months.

Let's solve the problems with the blackboard and streetlights first.

Actually, the blackboard problem is relatively easy to solve. You just need to find a piece of wood coated with black paint and make chalk from something like lime.

However, black paint is not common in the Kingdom of Asura. I did see it a few times when I was strolling around with Hilfi when I first arrived in Sharia. To be honest, things are valued for their rarity.

But this black paint is cheaper than I expected, although it's still a bit more expensive than regular paint.

However, where there are buyers, there will be sellers, and where there are sellers, there will be sources. We can just let the Magic Guild buy them in bulk when the time comes.

However, the problem of black paint has been solved, but where can we find lime to make chalk?

It seems I'll need to go outside the school with Sylphie tomorrow to see if Charia has any. If not, then I'll have to ask the Magic Guild to find a similar substitute.

Once the sample is made, it will be tested at the Magic University. After it is approved, it can be mass-produced.

I currently have thirty-nine Asura gold coins. I'll use a dozen or so to invest in building a factory. Once we can mass-produce, it will not only meet the needs of the Magic University but also extend to other schools in Sharia, and we can also earn some income.

However, making a profit is secondary; the main thing is to promote the "blackboard" product.

If the plan goes smoothly, then the blackboard problem can be solved.

Next came the streetlights.

Streetlights, as lighting fixtures that provide illumination for roads, were able to emit light at night in the previous life because they were connected by circuits, and they also had lampshades to protect them from the cold and rain.

If there's no electricity in this world, designing lampshades is manageable, but how do you make streetlights glow?

Using an oil lamp is definitely not an option, as lamp oil is not cheap in this world, and it freezes very easily in winter.

"Dad, this is a scroll of a King-level healing spell."

……

Lala...

Lala's words suddenly came to mind. I wonder where she is now, but that doesn't matter.

According to her, my future life won't be affected by any "gods" or anything like that, but I don't know if that's true or not...

No, a healing scroll...

Magic circle...

Although the scroll she used on me didn't work, I still felt my magic being drained away.

magic…

Correct!

magic!

Use magic instead of electricity, and drive it with a magic circle like a healing scroll!

How can we solve the problem with the magic circle...?

Genius…

Yes, Genius!

There must be teachers in magic universities who have done some research on magic circles, and the same goes for magic guilds.

If we can develop a magic circle to create small "fireballs," we can simply inject magic power at regular intervals to provide continuous illumination at night. Furthermore, the heat emitted by the "fireballs" can also provide warmth. Since they are powered by a magic circle, the "fireballs" won't be blown out by the wind, and the lampshade design...

it is good!

If the plan goes smoothly, then the blackboard and the streetlights will be the first battle in my and Sylphie's great operation to dispel the rumors!

……

So, tomorrow I'll go out with Hilfi to find some materials to make a blackboard and make a sample.

As long as the advantages of blackboards are explained, Vice Principal Genius will definitely agree, and then they can be equipped at the magic university.

The first step of the operation will officially begin tomorrow morning!

But there's one more important thing: morning jogging!

I feel like my physical abilities are not as good as Sylphie's.

I don't know if it was just my imagination, but when we ran a distance to avoid that group of delinquent teenagers, Silphi was obviously not as tired as I was.

……

Huh? Where am I?

All around were tall trees, and the soles of my feet felt uneven, as if I were walking on snow.

It still feels cold to the touch.

I turned my head to look, and there was Hilfi holding my hand.

Her hands were always so cold.

There were a few people walking ahead.

A male magician with long blond hair, wearing a red robe, and holding a long-handled staff as tall as himself.

A very imposing man carrying bundles of magic wood and a large sword on his back.

A female warrior, also carrying a magic tree, around thirty or forty years old, with a dreadlock hairstyle.

There were also priest-like men dressed in long white robes and carrying short hammers.

Is someone missing?

It looks like a girl.

Who is she again?

Where is she?

"Hey, isn't someone missing?"

"Lord Rudius."

The male magician walked towards me.

His face looked so familiar, but I just couldn't remember his name.

Sarah is dead.

Who is Sarah?

Sarah is...

"Father, the woman who could give birth to the savior is dead, she was..."

A woman's voice came from behind; it was Lala's voice.

Unlike Lala's voice, this voice is very special.

Would it be better to say "Nobles are disgusting" instead?

The cold sensation in my left hand seemed to have disappeared.

It feels very warm and soft, yet somewhat rough, like it has calluses on its hands. Is this a girl's hand?

Hilufi?

Sylphie is missing...

The sensation seems to come from my right hand.

Right hand...

A beautiful girl with short blonde hair and a traditional Asura face was standing in front of me. I hadn't looked closely before, but now I noticed that she had a feather earring near her ear.

"Sarah?"

"You've already..."

Well……

She kissed me, then grabbed my neck as if she couldn't breathe.

"You...you...what are you going to do..."

"call……"

"call……"

The scene changed again.

I recognize this scene...

The ground was riddled with arrows, and bloodstains soaked through the snow covering the ground.

There seems to be someone ahead.
