Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!



[Ace POV],

Fortunately, I suppose that my efforts weren't in vain because, after spending hours trying to make rank 1 mana pills, I was able to make a set of pills three times out of ten times, which I took as a good sign.

As long as my performance did not decline more than it had already, it was good in my eyes because it was at least an improvement over my previous circumstance.

I decided to move on to another pill because I was already beginning to grow acclimated to concocting the rank 1 mana pill. 

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ It was only a matter of time before my success rate at making the pill increased with the number of times I could construct a high purity pill.

Of course, I wasn't leaving the rank 1 pill behind to avoid making it again; instead, I was simply switching to another pill to obtain new experiences.

After all, I had to produce more than just the mana pill today.

I was able to create rank 1 mana pills to some extent already, and although they were of a low purity level that needed to be deemed a pill fit for ingestion, it was sufficient for the time being as I didn't want to concentrate only on making one type of pill. I was going to go to the next pill on the list as soon as I noticed a big improvement in one, then go back to the other medications I had previously developed to increase my success rate.

This method was advantageous because it ensured that I could considerably increase my ability to produce multiple pills instead of only one.

The rank 1 health pill was the next rank 1 pill I was going to create because my success rate in creating rank 1 pills was still very low at the time. After cleaning up the lab once more and putting the pill bottles containing the low purity rank 1 mana pills in my storage ring, I moved on to the next rank 1 pill i was going to create.

I wasn't sure if the unranked version of the rank 1 health pill, which was simpler to make than the mana pill, would also be like that, but I was about to find out.

Perhaps I now had something I could also sell on the auction sub option of the shop and make money if it just so happened that the rank 1 health pill was simpler to create than the rank 1 mana pill.

However, if the circumstances changed and it turned out that making the rank 1 health pill was just as difficult, if not more so, as making the rank 1 mana pill, then i would just have another issue to be concerned about.

As I was considering these things, I continued to prepare the materials for the rank 1 health pill I had already brought. Once that was finished, I took several deep breaths to settle down and raise my state of mind before lighting a flame in my hand to begin concocting.

Thoughts of "it would be good if it were easier to concoct" crossed my mind as I observed the herb that I had placed into the cauldron go through yet another stage of processing.

Several hours later....

'Hmmmm'

"It's either I'm too trash at concocting rank i mana pills or its naturally difficult for anyone to even concoct on their first few trials immediately after coming into contact with it," I reasoned as I observed the dozens of pill bottles in front of me, each containing low purity rank 1 health pills. 

While I failed three more times following the first attempt at making the rank 1 health pill, I eventually succeeded on my fifth attempt. When I first started my attempt to make the rank 1 health pil, I had anticipated some kind of challenge and a lot of failures.

Although it happened quickly, I believed that my job, my title, and the limited experience I had earned from creating the number one health supplement in the previous few hours should receive the credit.

After producing the pill I had successfully created, I had anticipated failing once more, but not to the amount I had anticipated.

The entire effect of my job and title didn't become apparent until much later, when I gradually learned that I wasn't bad at making pills; rather, I was just bad at making the rank 1 mana pill, or that it was simply too challenging for a novice rank 1 alchemist to even attempt.

It was either this or the rank 1 health pill was simply too simple to create; in contrast, the rank 1 mana pill was something I could only manage to create successfully three out of ten times, whereas here, I was able to create the rank 1 health pill five to six times out of ten trials.

It wasn't that I was complaining, it was just a little strange that I could come up with one so much better than the other given the huge success rate difference between the two.

Although I was aware that my job and title played the largest roles in what was happening, this did not mean that they were not also in play as I was formulating the rank 1 mana pill.

In any case, I didn't dwell on this issue for very long since I chose to go on to the next pill after deciding that my success rate at producing rank 1 health pills was sufficient, even if they were only of rank 1 health pills of the lowest level.

The next pill I planned to create was a rank one stamina pill.

I decided to create these three pills first before moving on to any further unknowns because, along with this one and the other two I had created in the previous hour, their unranked kinds were recognisable to me.

However, I first placed all the pill bottles filled with the rank 1 health pills and rearranged my lab before attempting to make the rank 1 stamina pill.

After doing this, I felt a little unclean and wanted to feel more at ease, so I went to take a quick wash.

I was thirsty from all the concocting, so I tasted a little water from the shower and when I saw that it was clean, I drank to my satisfaction despite the fact that there was water in my storage ring.

In any case, once all of this was finished and I had changed my clothing for another time today, I began my initial preparation for the rank 1 stamina pill.
