Master Of None

Onyx and Walker had found the small journals and an old torn book with information about abyssal serpents. They had not been very happy since they were mostly myths and false tales. The real problem when it came to the torn journal was the fact that it was all about the possibility of creating an immortality potion from their body as a material. The sketches of the body were poorly proportioned most likely due to the previous mansion owners' declining mental facilities.

"Brother, I know this may sound odd, but these are very useful. The things we can compare here are very great. The belief that an abyssal serpent can swallow the world comes from my skill to hide away my body in my shadow. If someone saw the sudden growth it could be seen as a monster capable of growing to consume giant creatures."

"I see what you mean. Then the thought that an abyssal serpent extinguishes light is the relations to them eating light elemental mana to grow. Not that they can actually destroy light or anything" Walker caught up to Onyx's thinking without issue. However, he still wished there was more information when it came to the small number of books they had.

"You should write a book about my growth for future generations. No one that we have met has ever studied my kind as much as we have. I believe it could help the future generations understand that abyssal serpents are not evil." Onyx was very adamant about this and Walker could only move and grab one of the blank journals to make the first volume. He would gladly work with Onyx to this degree and one day refine a set of volumes.

"Come over here! We need your help!" The soot stained face of the old master alchemist broke in to the library shouting for Walker.

"And this is the last time I think that the library should be silent and peaceful." Walker closed the journal he was just opening to start on what he and Onyx had planned to create.

"Walker! Old man, calm down he will look at it. Just because you have an idea of the appraisal doesn't mean he will have something different." Remey knew all too well that the old master alchemist could see the characteristics of the potion but had the worry that he has just seeing what he desired. It was a common issue for an alchemist to misread a potion due to their exhaustion or excitement. Therefore they would have it appraised by another alchemist or appraisal expert so that it would be proven to be successful.

"Alright, I will bite. What did you two make? Not a burnt pill or a charcoal potion I hope'¦" He couldn't let the chance to tease them get away. The covered in soot and burned potion was an odd appearance and one that they rarely had.

"No jokes boy! This is ground breaking potion making here. Appraise this and tell me what it says. I want to hear it word for word." The old master alchemists' hands shook as he handed over the potion. He was shaving trouble containing his energy while he waited to hear Walker's evaluation.

"Alright alright, hang on." The potion was cold in Walkers' hand and he could tell there was a unique amount of water elemental mana inside of it.

'Weak Water affinity potion

This is a brand new potion created by a master alchemist and a unique alchemist. This potion has concentrated water elemental mana perfectly mixed within water elemental materials. The balance of the potion is able to perfectly melt in to a living being to boost their affinity for one hour. The effects are weak but can greatly assist in the understanding or use of water elemental magics. After the potion loses effect the user will have cold sweats while their body adapts back to normal temperature. This potion will only be effective for one year before the ingredients degrade."

"Weak!? How is it weak? It must be the measurements of ingredients. I need more. Maybe I will add some higher quality snow bell flowers. But I could directly crush some centennial ice in to it. Or maybe I- Ah, thank you. It was successful. That's the new water elemental affinity potion. We have twenty of them. The degrading over a year is poor as well but it is a very tough potion. I doubt it will improve even with higher quality ingredients." The old master alchemist rattled all of this off while throwing his hands in the air.

"Calm down before your heart explodes. You succeeded and haven't even recorded the exact effects and statistics. We should think about selling five of them for an auction to start some rumors. The alchemy guild can sell these when we first open. But we need other elements too." There was a grand plan forming in Remey's mind. These could be the baseline for the alchemy guild to open and make a big splash.

"Ha! Other elements? We need more materials. Do you think getting the darkness and light elemental material for these things will be easy? I would need to sell my soul for such things. That's even if we can make it work." The old master alchemist was beside himself but he did see the value in what Remey was saying.

"I don't think the materials will be a problem. When we reach Genesis we will be able to see the massive trade heading there. The alchemy guild will attract rare materials and the new Garnet family auctions will attract sellers and buyers. Not to mention all the new merchants, shops, and stalls. You will have all the materials you can experiment with for your life and then some." Walker finally chimed back in while handing the potion back. He was impressed but knew this was just the beginning of what they would create over the next few months and years. He was excited to see more affinity potions.
