I Created Scientific Magic

The wizards gathered in the auditorium were all very curious about the experiment Lynn was talking about, and many still remembered that a year before, this star of magic had also conducted an astonishing pendulum experiment right here, proving that the continent beneath their feet was round and continuously spinning.

"Lord Anthony, is this world truly devoid of color?" Fula asked in a quiet voice from below.

Anthony frowned and did not answer, while Ailoke and others also had their doubts, which were rising quietly in their hearts. They trusted what their dean had said, but this time it seemed a bit too preposterous...

Similar murmurs rose within the entire auditorium, and at the same time, Glenn took a deep breath and as Lynn instructed, placed the light-dissociating device under the beam of sunlight falling from above their heads.

The white light was immediately separated into a dazzling rainbow light...

Following that, Glenn blocked out all the colors of light except for blue, and directed it at Johnny. Enjoy exclusive content from My Virtual Library Empire

A bright blue light quickly shone upon the girl, and then all the wizards in the auditorium couldn't help but stand up, their faces showing astonishment...

"How... How can this be? She turned black?" Rafael stared fixedly at the stage; under the illumination of the blue light, the girl's originally fair skin turned the same azure shade as the light, while her red dress became pitch black.

Glenn too was suppressing his surprise, turning the light-dissociating device in his hand, transitioning from blue light to green light and then to yellow light, but no matter which color of light was used to shine upon her, Johnny's dress was completely black.

If it were not for her skin color changing continuously with the light, everyone present might have thought the light-dissociating device was broken.

It was only when Glenn moved past blue light and started transitioning to red light did the situation finally change; when orange light shone on Johnny, the long dress immediately returned to its original bright red color.

This peculiar optical phenomenon left the wizards present amazed, especially the grand wizard who had spoken against Lynn earlier, who was now completely stupefied.

"It's the yellow light that was absorbed!" Glenn muttered to himself.

Rafael and others quickly recalled what Lynn had said earlier, that orange is made up of red and yellow mixed together, and now that the yellow light was absorbed, naturally, only the red light could be reflected back!

Just as they had thought, next from the orange light to red light and then to purple light, the entire color spectrum on the dress only showed varying intensities of red...

"This is impossible, that dress must have had a spell cast upon it!" a witch from below exclaimed in disbelief.

"Anyone who has doubts about this experiment can come up and try it out for themselves. Everything you can find possesses the ability to reflect and absorb light, just to different extents," Lynn said with a smile.

Following Lynn's suggestion, one curious wizard after another stepped onto the stage, placing whatever clothing, cloths, necklaces, various ornaments, and alchemical tools they could find in the center of the stage, illuminating them with different colors of light.

The results were exactly as Lynn had described, but because most things did not purely reflect just one color of light, only Johnny's red dress, which was exceptionally vivid and absorbed the other colors well, showed such a clear change.

"It's true after all... Objects themselves have no color; what we see is merely a reflection of light..." After conducting an experiment himself, Sanchez's heart was free of doubt.

If objects had color of their own, then under the illumination of various colored lights, they should show a change in hue, rather than simply turning black. Therefore, the only explanation is that objects are colorless; color is the light they see!

However, Sanchez soon seemed to have thought of something else, and asked with confusion, "Master Lynn, I have another question I would like your help to answer. If an object absorbs light, is there a limit to it, and where does the absorbed light go?"

Lynn looked at Sanchez with surprise. This was a very profound question, after all, it involved changes on the quantum scale. He could explain, but he couldn't provide conclusive proof...

After thinking for a moment, Lynn cautiously spoke, "I think you may have noticed that a white object in sunlight absorbs heat the slowest, while black objects absorb it the fastest, after all, they absorb all the light and thus gain the most energy!"

"I see, so it's the heat generated by the accumulation of 'light elements'?" Rafael, using the prevalent theory of light elements in Wizard Land, built upon this idea, and then expressed his admiration, "Your wisdom is astounding, Master Lynn... It seems that choosing you as a judge was the correct decision!"

If Lynn hadn't been there, they certainly would have accepted Glenn's theory of primary colors...

Although the development of magic theory is always fraught with errors, and theories previously recognized and even promoted by the council were later overturned, those judges who had made decisions would still feel as if their faces had been slapped.

On the platform, the expressions of Glenn and others grew very despondent, but they could not come up with any words to refute, as the ironclad evidence was right in front of them.

"Lord Lynn, it seems our research was mistaken," Glenn said disappointingly, holding the device for disassociating light.

Lynn said with a smile, "Your research indeed had its errors, but it also has great value, providing a good supplement to the magic theory of the light series, after all, our usual enemies are humans."

"In my personal capacity, I nominate you for the Morning Star Medal!" Lynn said solemnly.

As an academic judge, it was his job to point out errors in new magic theories, and nominating someone for the Morning Star Medal was a way to encourage the spirit of magical research.

From the time he started with glass, it had only been a year, and yet Glenn and the others had been able to discover its properties, create a proper prism, and observe the changes in the three primary colors, which was quite impressive!

"What do you think?" Lynn looked at the several judges and asked.

Rafael and the others exchanged glances. Glenn's research deserved a Morning Star Medal. They could also see that Lynn's understanding of optics was deep, and he was evidently not unfamiliar with primary colors, even directing Glenn in the experiment; he must have known the theory well ahead of time.

However, since even Lynn had not spoken out against it, after a brief discussion, they unanimously agreed.

The spirit of the Wizardry Conference was to encourage wizards to conduct studies in magic and to publicize their findings. Glenn and the others had independently researched the phenomena of Rainbow Light and the three primary colors, and for that, they deserved recognition...
