Jornwerner’s Laboratory
The next day after school, Sheila went to Jornwerner’s laboratory as promised.
She was somewhat nervous, as this was the first time she had been in and out of the academic tower.
The academic tower was located further back than the staff building. You could say it was at the edge of the academy grounds. There was a rumor that it was isolated at the northern end because a certain magician had caused a huge explosion, but the truth was uncertain.
Sheila climbed up the spiral staircase of the spacious entrance. It was a long, endless staircase that seemed like it would take a lot of effort to walk to the upper floors. She heard that there were many magicians who stayed in their academic towers, but wasn’t it troublesome to go up and down the stairs?
She arrived at Jornwerner’s laboratory, which was located on the fifth floor, out of breath. She knocked on the wooden door.
“Excuse me.”
“??I’m a little tied up right now, so please come in. The door is unlocked.”
From inside, Jornwerner’s muffled voice responded. It seemed that he really had no intention of opening the door, and there was no sign of people approaching. Sheila hesitated for a moment but had no choice but to open the door as she was told.
“Well then, pardon me.”
