"The Mindset of an Alchemist is built from how you use your brain."
Vice Headmaster Godwin Fraser began his speech in a calm tone.
He didn't need to raise his voice. Since a microphone was already in his hand, and the sound of his voice carried clearly through the entire Grand Hall.
"Not with brute strength, but with the mind."
He paused.
His royal-blue eyes moved across the hundreds of students sitting before him before he continued.
"Alchemy Strategy comes from the total analysis of how much Cognis is required when performing a single Novice-rank Alchemy, or how much Cognis goes into a single enchantment. You still have to consider the materials you use, how much Cognis is required to manipulate those materials, your Alchemy Circle, and even sometimes, your environment."
Godwin slowly raised one hand.
His fingers moved as he spoke, as if he were arranging invisible pieces in front of himself.
