Chapter 79: Too much to do
Aric got to his office, he prepared a stack of paper and a quill for himself. There were a lot of things he wanted to do, but he needed to write them down and hand them over to Ariel to get her input on what would be best.
"The first issue is the pipes and the water treatment," Aric said. He needed knowledge on how to get the filtration system working using mana stones. He wanted to see if the mana that they released could somehow eradicate the bacteria inside.
"System, is there a way mana crystals could eradicate bacteria in a controlled way that I can use?" he asked. He expected that the system would simply refer him to buy another book or something that he could use, but that was not the case this time.
[10 gold to purchase that information]
"Wait? I could have bought direct information all this time?" he asked, his expression shocked like a child that got a present he didn’t expect.
"Fine, take the gold."
[Mana crystals possess the purest form of mana. Mana in this state is very destructive to small bodies and organisms. The mana they emit becomes too much for them, and the organisms die.
In a controlled way would be to use a mana conductor instead of allowing the pure mana to reach the water.]
Aric’s eyes sped through the content. He felt intrigued even more by the project he was about to do; he couldn’t wait to start working on it. He placed his palms on the desk and pushed himself up. The chair swung back and forth but managed not to fall.
He left the desk and briskly walked to the door, the thumping sound of his feet sounding loudly against the wooden floors. But right as he was about to leave the office, Ariel walked in, her gaze locked with his.
