Greetings, Mister Principal

Chapter 1: Began as a principal today

Bang--

Chen Mo was awakened by the sound of a heavy smack on the desk. He who thought he was asleep in the office hurriedly looked at the person who smacked the desk.

But what he saw in his eyes was not a familiar colleague, but a strange woman.

The woman was obviously not an easterner. She who looked around twenty years old had a high nose, fair skin, and graceful figure; clearly a western beauty. The woman's long blond hair was tied into a ponytail behind her head, and her violet eyes contained anger, as she stared straight at Chen Mo.

She was not in professional attire, but more like the European medieval robe in the movie. Although it looked old, it was spotless. For some reason, the woman also wore a pointed hat on her head, which made her look like a witch.

"Ian Gray... Ahem, Principal, I have already reminded you that if you want to sleep, please go back to your room, right?"

The woman spoke something different from any earth language, but Chen Mo could understand it.

"Euh?"

Subconsciously making a puzzled noise, Chen Mo thought to himself, 'wasn't I preparing the materials for the next class in the teacher's office. How did I suddenly come to this place?'

At this moment, countless memories swept past his eyes like PowerPoint slides.

That was a person's life.

Reiner Ian Gray, this was Chen Mo's current name.

It sounded like the name of a nobleman, and in fact, this Reiner Ian Gray was indeed a nobleman. He was the third son of the famous Ian Gray family, a former hedonistic young master, and the principal of this private all-girls' school - Luna Nova Magical Academy.

Yes, this was the principal's office, and standing in front of Chen Mo, or in front of Reiner, was the vice principal and the dean of this academy, Claire Sallywynn.

And this was a magic world. It was not a world riven by electricity and the internet, but by magic.

Similarly, at Luna Nova Magical Academy, the Professors were not teaching physics and chemistry, but alchemy and elemental magic, magical theory, and astrology.

This academy was an all-girls' academy. Normally, the so-called all-girls' academy meant that it only enrolled female students, but Luna Nova Magical Academy was even more strict. Not just the students, all the faculty and staff were all female. So Chen Mo believed that this was the reason why the original owner of this current body bought this academy.

"Tsk! The old principal must be really blind that he sold the school to this kind of guy..."

Professor Claire muttered softly when she saw Reiner had a dumbfounded face.

After hearing Professor Claire's words, Chen Mo could only remain silent after the memories of the previous owner of his body were quickly merged and digested by him.

Chen Mo was originally a high school teacher on earth. Because he was too young and straightforward, he provoked a teacher who was related to the principal. As a result, he was falsely accused of molesting a student. When he was unable to explain himself, he came to this world and had this body. In terms of the soul of the original owner, he didn't know where it went.

According to the memory, this Reiner Ian Gray's family actually possessed a huge power, but his father was a whimsical person. One day, he decided to test his children and give each of them a certain amount of money. Then he drove them out of the family, telling them that they could only return home after five years.

At that time, whoever had the highest achievement would be eligible to inherit the family business.However, all Reiner Ian Gray knew was drawing pictures, playing the harp, drinking, and picking up girls. He had no business acumen. As a result, he was fooled and took out all the funds to buy this Luna Nova Magical Academy, which was on the verge of bankruptcy. After buying the academy, all he did every day was to harass professors and students.

So the student in front of him had been harassed by the previous owner?

Chen Mo, or Reiner Ian Gray, moved his gaze to the opposite side of the desk, where a girl who was dressed the same as the one beside her stood.

The girl had a lovely face. The most striking thing was the long silver hair on the back of her head and the scarlet gem-like eyes.

It gave her some mysterious qualities, but because she was a little nervous now, she squeezed the corners of her clothes with her fingers, and looked at Reiner and Claire anxiously.

"Ahem, Sharon, do you know what you wrote on the test paper means?"

Professor Claire cleared her throat and said to the girl in front of her.

"Mhm."

The girl called Sharon nodded, then glanced at Reiner, seemingly afraid of the principal.

Reiner remembered at this time that the student was summoned to the principal's office not because he had harassed her, but because there was a problem with the exam at the beginning of the school.

"There may be no fire element in the burning process, but a gas with a special nature acts as a catalyst in it...Where did you learn such a sentence? This is simply a blasphemy against alchemy!"

Professor Claire rebuked, making Sharon lower her head even more.

Hearing this, Reiner felt a little bit strange. He looked at the desktop. Over there lay Sharon's test paper. He could see that the place marked in red was a test question asking students to explain the process of burning this alchemical phenomenon.

Combustion was a manifestation of an oxidation reaction on the earth, and it was also one of the earliest chemical reactions applied by mankind. Flame gave birth to civilization and distinguished men from beasts. It could be said that the age of mankind was the age of fire. This principle was familiar to Reiner, who was once a high school physics teacher.

It was just that the name of the fire element made Reiner a little confused.

He roughly scanned the student's answer. Although Reiner didn't know what some of the nouns meant, and the description of some sentences was not rigorous, there was no doubt that this was a simple description of the combustion reaction. As for the fire element, Reiner remembered that it should have been a long-dead theory. It was called phlogiston on the earth. It was similar to virtual substances such as ether. It was only mentioned when the subject of chemistry first appeared.

But judging from the reaction of Professor Claire. Could it be that what this student wrote was wrong? That was why she was summoned here to be reprimanded?

"If there is no fire element, then how do you explain the change in the weight of the object after burning, where does the burning energy come from, and why are combustibles and non-combustibles different?"

Professor Claire looked very angry and even Reiner was scared by her criticism. She paused, and then said to Sharon earnestly.

"Sharon, I always thought you were a good student. Your alchemy performance was very good. Why did you do such a thing? Did someone bully you?"

Professor Claire's persuasive appearance made Sharon feel very troubled. She hesitated for a long time before she answered timidly.

"Professor, I don't think I am wrong."

Claire's expression instantly solidified when she heard Sharon's answer.

"I think... the textbook may be wrong, or imperfect, or..."Faced with the strict dean, Sharon didn't dare to insist on her own opinions anymore and explained vaguely.

"Sharon Kluane, let me reiterate..."

"Please wait, Professor Claire."

At this time, Reiner, who had been silent, spoke, causing the two ladies to look at this good-for-nothing Principal.

Reiner cleared his throat before continuing.

"I think what miss Sharon wrote wasn't completely wrong."

As soon as this sentence was uttered, Reiner felt two completely different gazes.
