Chapter 76: Sugar is Justice
Reiner didn't expect that Dana would cry. He didn't know how to comfort her at all, so he could only look at Claire helplessly.
Claire sighed, stepped forward, and stroked Dana's back, calming the girl.
"I'm sorry, I......"
Dana choked with sobs. She had thought a lot of things; the hardships of Uncle Chester, and her parents who would never be able to see this scene...
Claire kept comforting Dana, but she also thought of a lot.
Perhaps the sad emotions were contagious, after a while, Claire also started to cry.
The two girls, one old and one young, hugged each other in pain, leaving Reiner at a loss for what to do.
In the distance, some students who were attracted by the explosion just now were looking at this place while whispering to each other. Reiner could only hope that these young people would not spread any strange rumors such as:
"Breaking News! Why did a young girl and the dean cry hysterically? It turns out that that man is behind all of this! ? ?"... Reiner didn't want this kind of title to appear on the Daily Prester.
Feeling helpless, he could only open his mouth, trying to divert their attention with food.
"How about, I'll take you to eat some desserts?"
"What desserts?" "Really?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were said, Claire and Dana immediately turned their heads, stopped crying, and asked with wide-open eyes.
"Uh, a special kind of dessert."
Reiner was also stunned when he saw this. He was surprised that girls could change their mood so quickly. But his mind also turned quickly and soon thought of a common dessert on earth.
"Mr. Principal, the desserts you mentioned are some kind of sweets rather than strange things, right?"
Dana asked again, causing Reiner's mouth to twitch.
"You don't have to go if you don't want to."
"No, no, please forgive my caution, Mr. Principal."
Dana waved her hand immediately, it seemed that the temptation of sweets was more threatening than all kinds of indescribable things.
Reiner took the two to the kitchen in a corner of the academy. The alchemy creatures who were cooking were resting at the moment. There was no one here. Because the kitchen was under the academy, and it was not exposed to direct sunlight, it was quite cool.
"Cake or pudding? Of course, ice cream is the best in such a hot summer!"
Claire guessed excitedly. She had been required to keep a distance of more than ten meters from the kitchen for a long time in the past. But thanks to Reiner, this ban was finally lifted after he bought the academy.
This professor was like a cat patrolling other people's territory, with her head stretched out and looking around, stopping from time to time to sniff the hanging sausages and touch the washed vegetables in the basket. It was not like a crying girl she had shown earlier at all.
Reiner found a small box of chocolate biscuits and took a jar of thick cream out of nowhere. He put them on the table and started making desserts.
His technique was very simple: Take two chocolate biscuits and put a layer of cream in the middle to make cream biscuits.
While Dana and Claire watched Reiner making the cream biscuit intently, Claire reached out her hands secretly, wanting to steal the biscuit. But her hand was immediately knocked away by Reiner. Hurriedly retracted her hand, there was a faint resentful expression on Claire's face.
Reiner quickly made a small plate of cream biscuits, but instead of rushing to let the two ladies taste it, he poured three glasses of ice milk.
"There is a special way to eat this kind of cream biscuit. First of all, you need to twist it."
He gestured with a cream biscuit and twisted it slightly. After the biscuit was split into two, one of which had a lot of creams attached to it, and the other was relatively clean.
"Then lick the cream on this."
Reiner licked it casually. The solidified cream had a special flavor, which seemed to have a hint of vanilla, but it was a bit sweet when it was eaten alone. After all, cream was usually used as an ornament for other sweets.
"Finally, combine the two biscuits and dip them in milk."
He let the biscuits come into contact with the milk and picked them up immediately. At this time, the biscuits that had just absorbed the milk became soft. When they entered the mouth, the crispness and softness of the biscuits that had not been completely soaked with milk were mixed together, bringing a special taste.
When the light-favored milk met the rich-flavored cream, the two flavors influenced each other, making the taste rich and smooth. At the same time, the slightly bitter chocolate biscuits were in sharp contrast with the sweet cream, highlighting the distinct layered texture leaving the endless aftertaste.
To Reiner, the person who could come up with the idea to make biscuits to be dipped in milk was definitely a genius, and the person who could create such cream biscuits was the genius amongst geniuses.
Dana and Claire followed Reiner's actions and completed these three steps. The two girls also felt the same taste, and they were completely amazed by it.
In fact, this kind of method was not uncommon. Sandwich biscuits had always been a regular snack in the afternoon tea for noble ladies in the upper class, but it was the first time for Claire to see this special way of eating the sandwich biscuits, and it quickly captured her heart.
Dana also closed her eyes slightly, enjoying the wonderful taste, the previous sadness quickly disappeared.
The two ladies were not satisfied until they had eaten all the sandwich biscuits made by Reiner, and Claire even glanced at the dried sausages, looking rather reluctant to leave the kitchen.
Back in the classroom, Reiner sorted out the details of the spell casting process for Dana, hoping that she could cast other spells smoothly in the future.
"There will be a mock exam in a week. Although you should still have a year to prepare, it is good to check it out in advance."
Reiner said. He took out another blueprint with a simple model of a spell drawn on it, and some key points of spell casting written next to it.
"By the way, I also prepared a gift for you. This is your own spell."
"What is this?"
Dana glanced at this model. She felt familiar with the model, but she couldn't tell what it was. Her instinct told her that the magic energy needed for this spell seemed to be a lot.
"I named this spell Dana's Magic Burst. It is an offensive magic. Its main function is to practice controlling the output of magic energy. Depending on the amount of magic output, the effect of this magic will be significantly different."
After explaining, Reiner thought for a while and then added.
"Except in special circumstances, don't cast this spell on other people. You can go to an open place during practice to make sure that you won't affect other people. If you can't find a place, you can come to me for help."
"Uh."
Dana nodded in confusion, and then glanced at the drawing.
There was a sentence written in red ink above, "when casting this magic, you should always read the spell out loud so the spell would be cast successfully."
"Ix Proshon?"
Dana looked at this strange combination of runes and tilted her head
