Master Of None

It took a little while for them to decide what to do. It seemed that this potion was something that would make quite a few people fight over it. As much as this was amazing, there were plenty of people who would give anything for it.

Just the fact that Remey had proven she could make a potion beyond a grand potion called a celestial potion was a major aspect of what needed to be done and learned in the field of alchemy. Especially since there had to be healing potions like this too. If they were of the same level, Walker could imagine that they would heal someone from the brink of life and death.

This opened up Walker’s mind to what a celestial mana potion would be like. He knew that there were mana enhancement potions that helped someone replenish their mana faster than what they would naturally be able to do. This at a higher level might be something that allowed for near instant mana recovery without the strain on the body that came after drinking multiple basic mana potions.

He could consider the tough duty that would come from making many of these potions too. Remey had succeeded but she had the help of many who had produced and procured the herbs and other ingredients. This was also at a much higher cost meaning that there was a level of production that some of those who wanted these potions would need to sponsor as well. The cost would be immense in more than just manpower and ingredient cost.

The fact that Remey had succeeded was because of her skills and all of the work that she had put in to things. It would be easier now that she could use her new skills. Walker had listened to her telling him, but luckily he could be shown the description of them.

’Alchemy master’s cauldron

Use the control of alchemy fire and space mana to create a cauldron made of your own mana. This will allow extreme control over the ingredients placed within to make potions over a long period of time. While it lacks the control that comes with a personal cauldron forged for alchemy at high level, this will allow for mass production of potions below grand level or the refinement of potions to be used in higher tier potions.

The benefit of this is that herbs and liquid potions without vials will be stored and refined along with held for a much longer time within the cauldron. It also can not be damaged by physical force unless the mana is disrupted intentionally. It will also live within its own isolated space and can not be accessed by any other being as it is linked to the soul of the alchemist using it.

This skill is impossible to achieve unless the body and soul is bonded with space mana, has very high control over alchemy flames and their variations, and they are a master in their class…’

This one skill explains why the space mana was hanging around Remey before. She had already been on the verge of gaining a spatial related skill properly but now, she has one that would allow her to work better with the other skills she had. This was basically a perfectly tailored mastery skill.

As many would believe, they would see this as just a skill used for alchemy. However, Remey was smarter than that. She could see it as a skill she could use to make volatile potions that exploded or created toxic mists. Meaning that she could send that all out at once and not have to carry them or worry about the vials she carried breaking. She could utilize her alchemy skills much better in a battle than she had ever been able to do before.

Besides this, she also gained a battle related skill.

’Brawler’s fury

This skill builds up while in battle. The more attacks used the more vicious the flow becomes. It allows mana to build and enhance the strength and defenses of the body which in turn allows for more varied forms of attack without repercussion. Even attacks that would normally greatly harm the body will be much more resisted in all ways. This also allows for the drawbacks of harsh physician buffs to be ignored almost entirely.

Only a brawler who has spent years learning to fight and create their own skills would be able to learn this mastery skill. It can only be used once every seven months due to the immense strain it causes the mind to undergo by increasing the body to such a high level, however, during the event the brawler could become at least twenty times stronger depending on how they are battling…’

These two skills were perfect for the way that Remey fights and also how she prepared potions. While one was more focused on fighting, it was still amazing. This wasn’t even checking the smaller skills that were enhanced like her all herb identification skill which allowed her to now appraise herbs that were not of the world. That alone was major since it was clearly an upgrade based on the experience of going to the elemental planes and learning about herbs that only grew there.

”The potion we will save in case one of us has a child.” Remmey made a decision right there after they had sat in silence for a little bit. She looked at Ignus and Walker before continuing. ”We are all moving on and it’s been a few years since we started everything. We don’t really care about time since we are always working on something. You even meditate for weeks at a time sometimes. But we all have taken steps toward being more involved with others. We might want our children to have the best step forward in the world we are making for them.”

”That is the best answer. I would rather see it used for those who deserve an opportunity to carve their own paths.” Ignus would have agreed even if Remey had said she was throwing the potions away. However, He knew that the reason she had decided this was to avoid any issues with people fighting over the potions.

”When you tell the world about the potion, you should make it clear that it is extremely hard to reproduce. To the point that it might be impossible to make again within the next five or ten years. That way you won’t need to worry about someone bothering you too much.”

”I will back you up even if you decide to say something else though.” Walker smirked a little before standing up and looking around. ”I also hope that you two can help me with the new continent search. There is a continent that in ancient times was ruled by monsters and had mixed race mages surviving the best that they could. I might have a lot of exploring in store for us before we head back to the elemental planes.”

This left a lot for the pair to think about. It also left them to have a few moments of peace after their hard work. Walker wasn’t so foolish to believe that they wished to celebrate in their own way. Odds were that Ignus was holding back some of his excitement to maintain his professional facade as a dragon in front of Walker who he respected as an equal dragon.

Regardless, this new level of potions was a major leap forward again for alchemy. It would show that as a people the alchemy guild could achieve so much more. They just ended to refine their knowledge and approach more of the grand potions while approaching the level of celestial potions.

Right now the study of grand potions was a huge focus and learning that there was something more beyond it would make grand potions seem more obtainable than what they were right now. Many alchemists, especially the young, believed that a grand position was too far out of their reach to achieve. It limited their minds along with slowed the progress because some were not as determined as they possibly could be.

If they knew that they could achieve that and then chase something greater… Well, Walker looked forward to finding out what he would see sooner than later since he knew a lot of the master alchemists were beginning to realize just how outdated their skills were compared to this new age of alchemy.

With all of this in mind, Walker returned his focus to what he had been doing. Building a proper team to get to the new continent that they had a small idea of its location would be interesting. He had thought there was more out in the world, but mapping everything was proving slower than what he had expected. It would only advance faster now though. The need for exploration was in every adventurous body and soul.
