Chapter 85: Class Exchange
Adrian walked into homeroom with Karl at his side, his body feeling good to him despite the long night in the [System Factory].
The previous night had yielded progress, though not without its frustrations.
He had nailed the Mana Gun’s modification, integrating a training mode that fired soft, luminescent mana patches, like he had wished.
He had also managed a few hours of sleep, waking refreshed, and a hearty breakfast at the cafeteria had him feeling at his peak.
The Magic Heater, however, was a different story. Adrian had underestimated the task, expecting a quick tweak to the existing design.
His vision was ambitious. He wanted to create a cauldron-like heater with intensity adjustable to 1-degree Celsius precision, allowing him to handle any kind of Alchemy challenge he would face.
But achieving that, and changing the set up to a cauldron required a mana regulator so finely tuned it demanded a complete redesign.
Without a tool to measure heat output, he had to derive a calibration system from scratch, diving into complex calculations.
His knowledge of thermodynamics spared him from trial and error; yet, the process was still grueling, and he’d only laid the groundwork for a new core design.
’It’s not easy, but it’ll be worth it,’ Adrian had thought the moment he decided to continue later.
The Factory was going into cooldown for the second time that night so he had decided to sleep instead of waiting for it.
