I looked at the final stages of four potions; they are a few minutes away from finishing.
Each set-up had ten units of potions, which I am controlling expertly.
I wanted more resources, but Reyana isn’t willing to give me that. Saying it is too dangerous; still creating forty potions per forty minutes is great.
She is also good; she is also crafting four potions at once. Each setup has eight units’ worth of material.
The night had come, and this would be my last batch of resources. With this batch, I would craft four hundred and twenty-two potions, with each potion giving me an eight somt crystals as every potion is at a peak level of efficacy.
It will give me three thousand, three hundred and seventy-six somts crystals, which would be enough to buy at least two days of treatment resources.
Alchemists are rich for this reason, but not many could become one. Talent is the last that is needed. First is money.
It requires a lot of practice to reach this stage means more resources, and they do not come cheap.
I started practicing alchemy after I broke out of the Knight stage and started to practice it earnestly after reaching the Tyrant stage.
While I was crafting, I looked at mother and daughter. Both of them are alchemists and crafting potions; the young girl had great talent from what I could see.
At her age, she is already a Grade 1 alchemist, and seeing her skills, it won’t take her long to reach Grade 2.
I watched them doing alchemy till I am done, before pouring the resources into the bottles.
I did not call her, instead; I sat down. She will be finished it in around ten minutes, then I will hand them over to her and take my payment.
Hun!
Suddenly, I moved from my spot and appeared beside the young girl. Her solution was getting out of control. She had been trying to control it for more than a minute, but instead of improving, it was getting worse.
“You should increase the heat, instead of decreasing it,” I said gently. Her sweaty eyes turned to me in confusion.
“Arus roots you have used were faintly mutated because of the environment they grew up in. The faint mutation had suddenly reacted and begin destabilizing the solution,”
“Increasing the heat will bring it back under control,” I said to her.
For a second, she hesitated, before slowly increasing the heat. For over ten seconds, things did not improve, before they calm down, till the potion stabilized a minute later.
“Thank you,” said the young girl.
“It’s nothing,” I said and went back to my place and waited for her mother to finish up.
Four minutes later, she finished and turned to me. “This is the last batch,” I said and sent the potion to her.
“Are you finished for today?” she asked as she checked the potions, before sending the crystals toward me. “Thank you,” I said and placed the crystal into the band before leaving.
This restrictive band had quite a few features. The map, the storage, and it would even provide a powerful shock if I reached a hundred meters of the boundary to remind me.
Soon, I walked out of the house, moving at top speed. My first destination is the store to buy the resources.
Its store was quite a distance away that needed twenty-one minutes for me to reach it. It is a huge store, which is made of the size of a mushroom. Even when in a hurry, I spent the entire minute admiring it.
I entered inside and started buying things; it took me one and a half hours to buy everything I need for my treatments.
I even brought the small storage ring to the store, the newly brought resources, and a hundred and three somt crystals.
From the ring, I had sent those resources to my core. I had done some probing and could isolate the band when I need to. In my core, my clones will start the process to refine them into things I need.
I am being careful with the use of the core; earlier, I sense the soul sense of the Earth Sovereign, which connected to the band.
It had taken the data. The band had gathered about me.
My profession as an alchemist would suit me well. Even if I got caught in a solution, I could easily tell them I had crafted those myself.
Though, I will not let it come to that.
It will take some time for my clones to craft the things I need. Till I would need to find a place, I already have a place in mind.
Thirteen minutes later, I reached the inn. It is not expensive, but not too cheap either. I booked a room and had dinner before you went to my room, doing nothing strange.
The first thing I did as I reached my room was sleep. I am tired, and I would need to be rested state for maximum benefits from the method.
I fell asleep within a few seconds and woke up feeling good.
I did not get up from my place or even opened my eyes and instead went to my core. There, two of my clones are still working on treatments; there are still four more hours before it is all finished.
Seeing that, I started to hold back my breath.
I went to my core and sat on my chair before starting to study the ancient runes. I have would have very much liked to study the ruin, I am going, but they do not have any information about it.
I would be the one who would collect the information. So, those who come after me will have it to study.
It is going to be dangerous, and I need to be as much as prepared as I could be.

It wouldn’t have been possible before, but now with the blockages gone. I could do it; the only thing between me and my breakthrough to Primary-III would be reaching the limit.
Till now, it used to be the easiest thing for me, but in this world. The Grimms do not have a fixed place, where I could go and hunt them.
It is your luck on unluck when they appear.
So, I have to start the strengthening treatment. I had used a lot in prison and was out of resources for it, too, and I don’t think I would be able to earn enough through alchemy to finance that.
While the alchemy pays really well, the treatments are not cheap and would get more expensive with the progress I make.
I would need to reveal more of my abilities and take a lot of help from the core. If I want to do it in time, it comes with its own risk.
I can’t reveal I have the abilities of a Grand 4 alchemist. It is a completely different level. The organization might not even let me go to the ruin, which is my chance to escape its clutches.
