After taking care of some chores, Reiner went straight to his room, didn't bother to wash up, fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already late in the evening.

The strong sunlight had dimmed considerably, staining the thin clouds with a golden hue before shining through the curtains onto Reiner's bed.

When he opened his eyes, he felt a little breathless, as if his chest was being weighed down by some weight, and when he looked down, he realized that the tabby kitten was curled up in a ball, lying on his body and sleeping soundly.

Reiner, not knowing when the cat had slipped into his room, raised his hand and scratched the other's head.

This woke the sleeping kitten, who opened its eyes, glanced at Reiner, and fell asleep again as if nothing had happened.

“...... Is this really a cat? ”

Reiner twitched the corners of his mouth, and he got up directly, and the kitten, who couldn't keep his balance, jumped up and fell to the ground.

It opened its mouth wide and yawned, then pressed its two front paws to the ground, and its whole body bent backwards, as if stretching.

After all this, the kitten glanced at Reiner, but without complaining that he had disturbed his dream, he went around the room and jumped away from the windowsill.

"There are no people in the summer, I wonder if it has something to eat?"

Reiner stepped out of bed and thought as he changed his clothes.

In the evening, the campus was dyed golden, and through the window of the room, the whole square could be seen, and Reiner noticed a girl walking in the corner of the square with a few bags, and after a closer look, he recognized it as Dana.

Dana wasn't in her final year, but she chose to stay at school over the summer to continue practicing her magic, and now she presumably came back from Old Street to buy some fresh fruit or something.

After thinking about it, Reiner felt that he might really need the help of these students, so he walked to the office with the materials and happened to meet Claire.

"I want to go to the office to find you......"

Claire was one of the regular clothes that Reiner had bought for her, a small dress with cute ornaments, and a large package floating beside her, Reiner knew at a glance that this was the item he needed.

"Mr. Osborne sent it to you with a special mail, but I still don't know what the connection between peas and purebloods is."

Claire followed Reiner into the office and put down the large bag of packages, which were filled with several small bags of pea seeds.

"It's easy to understand, Claire."

Reiner thought that since he had to ask the students for help, it would be okay to explain it to Claire, so he picked up a bag of pea seeds marked with the word "tall stem" and said.

"Peas come in different varieties, such as tall and short stems, the flowers are white or red, and the peas are smooth or wrinkled, just like humans, tall, short, thin, handsome and ugly."

Nodding her head in understanding, Claire looked at the seed again.

"According to the Necromancy's study of life, our bodies are made up of living tissues called 'cells,' which can be clearly seen with a microscope."

The microscope of this world is an optical microscope, composed of lenses, invented during the ancient Magic Empire, and although it can observe the cell level, it cannot get a glimpse of the world inside the cell.

"This kind of cell exists in the human body, as well as in the body of animals and plants, and since the bloodline mage can fuse the bloodlines of animals and plants and pass them on from generation to generation, it can be speculated that there is also the ability to transmit their own bloodlines between plants and animals alone."

In fact, although there is no theoretical summary of this phenomenon, it has long been applied to agricultural production, and the seeds with "tall stems" written in Reiner's hands are actually the final product of removing the peas with short stems after multiple generations of screening.

"I guess that in the bloodline, there is a bloodline factor that can affect the specific appearance of living things, just like elemental particles constitute matter, and the so-called bloodline transformation is actually the act of fusing the bloodline factors of other species into their own bloodline factors."

Books on bloodline fusion are very rare, and most pure-blood mages use them as their family's secrets, but bloodline mages have a long history, and there are always some families that have perished halfway, and after their books are returned to the Magic Association, the basic bloodline fusion methods have gradually become clear.

In Reiner's view, bloodline fusion is actually the process of screening out the genetic factors that carry some specific traits of magical creatures and replacing them with the corresponding parts of humans themselves.

"So, I want to find out how the blood factor affects the external performance of the organism by studying the characteristics of the pea plant, and I think that Elimia's mother did not have fornications with other men, and the reason why she is different from other people in the family is that her blood factor is very special, and I just want to prove that this peculiarity exists."

"Specificity ......"

Claire never thought about what Reiner said, in her opinion, it is natural for children to be like parents, Claire did not think about whether there is any pattern in this, because according to the research of the necromancy, there are almost no cells in the child's body from the parents, and no one knows why this new life can inherit the bloodline.

"Do you mean that even a biological child can look completely different from his parents?"

"Although this is an extreme case, what I want to prove is that at least some of the characteristics that both parents have, and that children do not necessarily have, and conversely, some characteristics that parents do not have, may appear in children."

Reiner's words were a bit of a twist, and Claire's eyes were already spinning.

"In short, I just want to untie the knot in Arimia's heart, if her guilt about the family no longer exists, she may be able to stand up against the absurd traditions of the family."

"But, why do you think that as long as you can prove that Arymia is born in the family, she can rebel against the Elbiore family, the pure-bloods are very stubborn, and they can't be changed by a simple thing, right?"

Faced with Claire's question, Reiner only took out a note.

Claire quickly recognized that it was a note that Reiner had asked all the students to write about their future goals, and it was clear that this one was written by Arymia.

"She already has such a will, and what she lacks is just an opportunity to break the shackles."

On the apparently crumpled note, it was written in somewhat scribbled handwriting.
