It had been snowing all night.

The wood in the stove was still burning, warming the room.

After eating and drinking, Elimia no longer felt the tension of her past, she leaned back on the sofa to digest her food, her eyes slightly closed, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Fina took a book, and wanted to read it again before she went to bed, but the blood was so concentrated in her stomach that she could not think, and after reading a few pages, she fell asleep, and finally gave up reading and began to play with Lady Freya.

Claire continued to pick up her cup of hot chocolate, the warmth seeping through the cup into her palm, warming her whole body.

Reiner sat next to Claire, and the dinner plate had already been packed up and handed over to the alchemy creatures who had not taken a holiday even in the New Year.

In his hand was the year-end issue of the Truth periodical, a special issue that had just been released a few days ago, and it was not the latest paper, but a summary of this year's progress in magic and the top 10 papers of the year, selected by the High Council.

Surprisingly, five out of ten papers were written by Reiner.

The first is a treatise on electrolysis of water, which directly shattered the four basic element theories that mages have believed in in the past, completely subverting the foundation of alchemy theory in the past, and at the same time, the law of conservation of mass and the law of conservation of elements proposed by Reiner became a new basis for alchemy, and since then, the door of the elements has been completely opened to mages.

The second is a treatise on the periodic law of the elements, which reorders the chaotic elemental world, and Reiner touches on what may be one of the most essential laws of this world, and in this way, the mages have crossed the barriers of the macrocosm and officially began to explore the microcosm.

The third treatise is on the genetic theory of pea hybridization, and if the first two papers are the crystallization of the mages' continuous exploration of this world, then this paper is the mage's exploration of the origins of human beings themselves, which explains why this vast world is so colorful and explains the meaning of the continuous inheritance of life.

The fourth paper is the nuclear model paper, which together with the previous Silios particle ray impact gold leaf experiment, unveiled the mystery of the atomic structure for the mages, and at the same time, borrowed the Stein formula to determine the trajectory of the electrons inside the atom, which indicates that the mages can not only qualitatively understand the mysteries inside the atom without direct observation, but also directly determine the specific orbit of the electron through mathematical calculations.

The fifth, and at the end of the top 10 papers of the year, is Reiner's paper explaining the principle of the photoelectric effect, in which through rigorous calculations, bold assumptions, and logical reasoning, successfully explained the nature of the photoelectric effect, and put an end to the decades-long debate over the wave and particle nature of light.

There are five other papers, such as the Newington-Holland equations, and the Syris formula and imaginary numbers, but none of the mages have five by one like Reiner!

At the end of this journal, the legendary mage Herman . The title "Ian Gray's Miracle Year" was also used in the commentary written by Lord Braggs himself, as a way to commemorate the legendary year brought by Reiner.

"Hah-"

Arimia stretched to show off her magnificent figure, and she picked up what she had brought, and stood up, as if ready to go back to her room.

"I'll go back to sleep first, and tomorrow I have to clean up at the beginning of the year."

"Ah, wait, I'm going back too."

Fina also stopped stroking Madame Freya's hand, and hurriedly stood up, their room was conveniently reached from the lounge through a short corridor.

"Meow."

Madame Freya felt that the hand that had been touching her was nowhere to be seen, and she opened her eyes that had been squinted in a state of enjoyment, glanced at Reiner, and quickly followed Fina away.

In the huge lounge, only Reiner and Claire were left.

"Aren't you sleeping yet, Claire?"

Reiner put down the journal in his hand and looked at Claire on the side.

"Well, I'm not sleepy."

Claire curled up in her rocking chair, feeling the warmth of the stove, spoke leisurely, and then, as if remembering something, quipped.

"Hee-hee, Reiner you said before, I spent ten minutes in front of the fire, and I felt like I had spent an hour, and sitting next to me for an hour seemed like only ten minutes had passed, so now that the two of us are sitting in front of the fire, has it become a normal time feeling."

"That's right."

Reiner smiled, lamenting that Claire really remembered some trivial things.

"By the way, I have something to show you."

Claire said, she stood up, naturally took Reiner's hand, and the two of them each put on a thick coat and walked out of the common room.

Tossing and turning, Claire led Reiner to the top floor of the stargazing tower.

I don't know when the snow has stopped, and even the stars are silent in a world where everything is silent.

Looking up, the night sky is shrouded in dark clouds, which is in stark contrast to the snow-white world, and the two leave a series of footprints on the top floor, walking side by side.

"Me."

Instead of looking at Reiner, Claire looked at the silent night sky, and she said as if she were telling a long story to the children.

"Unlike Arimia, who can do everything flawlessly, nor like Fina, who is talented in magic, unlike Charlotte, who is proficient in alchemy and drawing, and even Dana, who can save others when they are in danger, I don't have the power of them."

Reiner wanted to say something, but when he saw Claire's expression, he chose to remain silent, he knew that he didn't need to comfort the other party.

"Sometimes I think that if I can be a little bit more powerful, will Reiner pay more attention to me, just like those high-level mages, standing on the same level as Reiner, and only then will they be qualified to stay by your side."

Claire took two steps forward, turned her head slightly, looked at Reiner, and smiled.

"But then I learned that liking someone is not about what the other person can bring to you, but thinking about what you can bring to the other person."

She was in a white world, and it looked like a dream.

"So, Reiner, all I can bring you is a starry sky."

As she spoke, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the bright night shone on the earth in the midst of the starlight.

Claire's hand seemed to have a little starlight, hazy her silhouette.

No, it wasn't an illusion, but in Claire's hands, there were indeed stars shining.

As a high-level mage, Reiner could see what it was at first glance.

The One Ring Spell, Star Orbit, is a simple projection magic that creates images of constellations, and is usually a handy spell used by astrological mages when performing astrological astrology.

I see.

Reiner suddenly understood.

This star track technique is the spell that Claire engraved into the heart lake, and it is the spell that she finally succeeded in and promoted to the first ring after failing the exam three times.

In Claire's palm, the tiny, but still shining starlight, illuminated the two of them.

It's the light that Claire has done her best to produce.

Some people give a lot, but it is only the tip of the iceberg of what they have, and some people give very little, but they are already their own gifts.

"Even if it's like this, I want to stand by your side."

Claire said, her expression more serious than ever.

"Even like this, I like you."

Reiner was stunned, then smiled.

He didn't answer.

Instead, he took two steps forward, gently took Claire into his arms, lowered his head, and kissed Claire relentlessly.

The moment the lips touched, a universe seemed to be born in it, countless thoughts converged, and finally, both of them calmed down and quietly enjoyed the warmth brought by each other.

At this moment, a moment seems like a long time, and it always seems like a moment.

For a long time, her lips parted, and Claire lowered her head shyly.

"It's the first time ......"

Before she could finish her sentence, she heard a bell ringing in the distance, which was the bell announcing the arrival of twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and the bell announcing the end of the year and the beginning of the new year.

The moon of dragon's sleep is over, and the moon of divine concealment has arrived.

Legend has it that in the distant past, mages used magic to break the shackles of belief in the gods and gods, igniting the fire of civilization for the ignorant world, and as a result, the gods withered and disappeared, so the first month of the new year was called the month of the gods.

"Ah...... Happy New Year. ”

Claire seemed to be reminded of the sound of the bell, and she looked up, looked at Reiner, and then added an explanation.

"It's customary to say Happy New Year to everyone you meet on New Year's Day, so that it will bring good luck for the year."

Reiner seemed frustrated by Claire's somewhat unfashionable topic, but responded with it.

"Happy New Year."

The night seems to be still a long time.
