Chapter 352: Reincarnated as a Genius of the Most Talented Family
231. Opportunity for a reversal (2)
Like any department, unpopular departments are more sensitive to money than other departments.
Because the number of students is small, they are not able to be allocated a large budget in the first place, and they have to make do with that budget.
For example, when the Department of Swordsmanship and the Department of Magic recently purchased new training facilities and equipment, the unpopular departments struggle with the cost of repairing old equipment.
However, it is difficult to expect additional budget from the Academy, and individual sponsorship is also not possible.
In principle, external funds should not be allowed to flow into undergraduate funding.
So, in the case of unpopular departments, there are many cases where professors use their own money.
Anyway, for that reason, unpopular departments, especially the Department of Architecture, are in a situation where they don’t even have a budget to buy model materials.
“If only last year’s festival hadn’t been a failure.”
Professor of Architecture, Egrom Sant’Elia sighed repeatedly.
The budget was already tight, but it became even tighter because we put everything on the line for last year’s festival.
This problem arose because next year’s budget was pulled forward and used up in advance.
Why did you do that?
“I knew it would work. Damn it.”
Professor Santelia buried her face.
The Department of Architecture spent a huge amount of money last year on creating a ‘great building’ for the festival.
It was a building that Professor Santelia was obsessed with.
It was a structure discovered in a book believed to be from the ancient Arcana… … .
Anyway, it was a good attempt.
It had its own meaning.
The problem was that the opponents were too strong.
Academy fencing club.
And all sorts of fun booths from the completely unexpected ‘Romance’ club.
Because of this, the buildings that the Department of Architecture had spent a lot of money on were left to chance.
of course-
They also overlooked the fact that students’ tastes were more about entertainment than architecture.
“I am a sinner, I am a sinner.”
Professor Santelia lamented.
It was a pity that it was made like that without considering the consequences.
“professor!”
Then, Professor Santelia’s lab suddenly opens.
The architecture students were standing.
“My, my disciples.”
Professor Santelia was trembling with fear instead of being angry or scolding him for coming in without knocking.
“Professor… … Is it really true that our department can’t participate in this festival?”
“… … .”
“Why is there no answer… … .”
“I’m sorry… … .”
If something like this happened, other professors would suppress it with authority, but Professor Santelia is not like that by nature.
“What about our freshmen!”
“… … .”
“If only we hadn’t pulled in the budget last year… … .”
“Oh, how about recycling something I made last year… … .”
Professor Santelia said hurriedly.
A building built last year.
‘Angel Statue’ that operates with the ‘magic’ of the Ancient Arcana.
Although the structure is extremely complex and requires a great deal of technical skill, the Department of Architecture has already copied it.
Although it was only half-baked, it was possible thanks to Professor Santelia’s genius talent.
The problem was that it was only beautiful on the outside and not actually functional.
After making it, it turned out that no one could make it work properly.
Even if you call the magic department and ask for help.
“Do you still have any attachment to that… Professor?”
“Well, if it works, wouldn’t it be the dream statue we all dream of!”
“You should forget about it. It’s been almost a year since it was ruined and left like that.”
“… … .”
“Can’t we really do something… … ?”
In fact, undergraduate students are equally eager.
The reason is simple.
Because nothing is more important than the architecture we create together at a festival.
Because the imperial architectural world values such practical activities and they influence future employment.
But Professor Santelia closed her eyes tightly and slowly shook her head.
“I’m sorry… … I went to the bank yesterday and they said I can’t get a loan anymore… … .”
Actually, quite a lot of money was invested.
No, there were a lot.
Of course, the students agreed on this issue, but… … that’s not what’s important right now.
Professor Santelia is not the type of person to deny responsibility now.
“… … .”

“… …Isn’t there a way?”
But the students are good.
Even though it got to this point, rather than blaming each other, I started thinking about ways to survive.
The problem is that there are no sharp numbers.
First of all, I don’t have money.
The budget has been spent, and even if the students spend their own money, it won’t be much.
“Kajin, do you have some money?”
“Would you be? I am the child who was abandoned.”
“Me too… … Last time I went to my parents’ house, I got yelled at for an hour for not hitting them yet.”
Because everyone is in a situation where they get cursed at by their families just for going to the architecture department.
Of course, some came to the Department of Architecture with the purpose of graduating from the academy.
I’m talking about some guys who need a diploma.
I don’t think those guys will come here with the passion to shout that we should have a festival.
Anyway, for that reason, we can’t expect anything from students.
It’s not something you should have expected in the first place, but they were that desperate.
“Should I somehow get some materials and make something?”
“If that doesn’t work, then we have to do it that way.”
Professor Santelia was so moved by the passion that he jumped up from his seat.
“I’ll try to do something about it. I’ll go to the academic affairs committee right now… … .”
That was when.
smart.
Someone knocked on the lab door.
Professor Santelia was puzzled.
Are all our students going to come and go without knocking?
It was soon clear who the visitor was.
“Hello, Professor. My name is Dane Sogress, a sophomore in the Department of Autonomous Studies.”
It was a visit from a person I never expected to see.
* * *
Is this a dream or reality?
If you’re not here to joke around, what are the stories I just heard?
Professor Santelia tried to organize what she had just heard, then listened to Dane’s words.
“To summarize, it’s like this. If you build the building we request, we will support the Department of Architecture.”
“That… that? J-bone?”
“I promise to give you all the support you can.”
I promise to give you all my support.
If someone else had said this, I would have thought it was some kind of a sly comment…
The opponent was Dane Sogres.
A boy who is called the genius of the empire beyond the academy.
“Of course, for that to happen, all of our work has to be completed within the deadline.”
The conditions were as follows.
“Please take charge of checking the design drawings and construction.”
I just want you to build a building according to the blueprints I have provided.
“This…….”
Professor Santelia narrowed her eyes, and the architecture students watching from behind looked bewildered.
Because it is a building I have never seen before.
“What the heck is this?”
“This is called a ‘playground ride.’”
“Amusement park rides… … Ah!”
Only Professor Santelia heard and exclaimed.
In the present age, communication with Draenics has been cut off since the war. So the younger generation does not know much about Draenics.
But Professor Santelia is different.
Before the war, exchanges were so active that there were even tourist products available for travel to Drenique.
Professor Santelia had not been to Drenique at the time, but at least she had heard or encountered a lot of information.
This is one of them.
“Surely not at Drenique’s ‘amusement park’… … .”
“you’re right.”
“her…….”
It was surprising in two ways.
One is that the boy in front of me knows about the structure made by Drenique, or more precisely, the ‘amusement park’.
Another thing is that I thought of using it for a festival.
And one more thing.
“This blueprint… … .”
“It wasn’t me. It was a friend of mine, Ernest Dylan, who drew it.”
“haha.”
That he drew the blueprints himself.
“What department are you in…?”
“This is the Department of Exploration.”
“Okay.”
Of all places, it had to be the Department of Exploration.
If I had come to the Department of Architecture, I could have done more.
Although the design is somewhat lacking in sophistication, it is a design that captures all the key elements.
But now is the time to leave regrets behind.
There were a mountain of things I was curious about.
“Making this won’t be as easy as I thought.”
Professor Santelia immediately pointed out several problems.
“First of all… … It doesn’t look easy to just get the materials, and it will require a lot of manpower and a lot of money. We also have to consider the maintenance that will follow… … .”
Simply put, it is nearly impossible to make it before the festival.
At least from the perspective of the architecture department.
“Anything you can think of is probably solvable.”
“Yes?”
But Dane showed confidence.
“There is no need to worry about manpower. The Department of Architecture will help you in areas where technology is needed.”
“What about the materials?”
“I can get it. Within two days. You can just revise the blueprint in the meantime.”
“… …Money?”
“Money wasn’t even a consideration.”
They say anything is possible.
And he did so with great confidence.
The opponent is a student.
So, if it were normal, I would have ignored it, thinking it was some kind of nonsense… … .
‘Why does it feel like it’s really possible?’
It really seemed possible.
Here’s one more crucial thing.
“Many of the groundwork and other technical issues can be solved with magic.”
Magic that could not be utilized in Draenic.
So, paradoxically, engineering developed.
It is said that this can be replaced with magic.
But as Professor Santelia knows, it won’t be easy to demonstrate that level of magic.
“Magic isn’t omnipotent.”
Although he was not a magic hater, he was wary of magical supremacy.
In fact, some techniques in the field of architecture have been replaced by magic, but even magic has its limits.
Professor Santelia, on the other hand, believes that the previous technology was better.
“If everything could be solved by magic, why would architects go through all that trouble and spend months struggling with it?”
It was at that moment that Professor Santelia shook her head.
Swish.
On one side of the lab, materials for making miniatures before actual construction began to float up.
Materials smaller than the palm of your hand, from small pillars to thin walls.
“What are you doing now?”
Professor Santelia’s trembling voice.
Meanwhile, the materials quickly moved forward and were arranged in a developmental format.
Okay, next time.
And one by one, they were being attached to create a single building.
“This…….”
“oh my god…….”
It takes at least a day to make just one miniature.
Of course, making isn’t everything.
It also has to be dry, and it has to match the actual building and overall appearance.
But Dane was making it now.
All of a sudden-
“Magic isn’t omnipotent, as you said.”
Amazing results.
“But my magic is a little different.”
Crunch, bang!
The building was finally completed with one wall attached.
Even though I didn’t apply any adhesive, it looks sturdy and solid at first glance.
Even Dane lifted it in his hand and handed it to Professor Santelia.
“What the heck… … .”
Professor Santelia deliberately took it with force.
However, rather than collapsing without any strength, the miniature conveys an incredibly strong repulsive force.
“If I had my magic, I could greatly shorten the time and solve technical problems.”
Of course, this alone is not enough.
But now the architecture department had no choice.
“If you help me, I will lend you my strength as well.”
Added to this is an offer you can’t refuse.
The architecture department has neither the time nor the money right now.
But what if the magical powers were added to this, along with the support that Dane promised… … ?
‘statue.’
The unfinished statue from last year flashed through Professor Sant’Elia’s mind.
And Professor Santelia, who was shaking as if she had been struck by lightning.
The hesitation didn’t last long.
“We will. We promise to provide all kinds of help.”
A spark of hope began to flicker in Professor Santelia’s eyes.
