As Reilo was making frantic preparations for departure, he suddenly received a Crystal Ball message from Windsor.
"There's been progress in the Shadow Wall Demon research. We urgently need someone with powerful Mental Power to help with the study. You should come over as soon as you can."
Windsor got straight to the point, and her words made Reilo pause in surprise.
Her voice was urgent, as though she was doing everything she could to suppress her excitement.
It was clear that long-distance Crystal Ball communication between academies consumed a great deal of energy. Even Windsor seemed unwilling to waste words.
"At a time like this?"
Reilo frowned.
He checked the time on the clock and said gravely, "The Grand Natural Sciences Academy's army is setting out in three days."
"Trust me. This experiment will absolutely change the history of human scholarship, and it might even help with this war. The time spent will be worth every second!"
Windsor insisted, her voice urgent and excited.
Reilo fell silent, his expression thoughtful, and did not answer immediately.
Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't have been a problem. The journey from here to Windsor Business Academy was almost negligible. But now, the Academy Alliance was in the process of establishing the foundations of its civilization. There could be no room for mistakes. Reilo had to stay alert and deal with the deans and senior scholars of the various academies, ensuring that the alliance assembled, set out, and established itself as planned.
"How about this? I'll discuss it with the other deans and let you know shortly."
"All right. I'll wait."
After ending the Crystal Ball call, Reilo lowered his head and thought for a moment before picking up the Crystal Ball to contact several deans.
A little over half an hourglass later.
