Chapter 1274: New "Training"
Chapter 1274: New "Training"
And so the training began, and just as Master stated, we had to do... Just that.
Well, at the very least, there was a Quest for that.
But why a Quest now from all things? Is it that big of a challenge to clean the house using Alchemy?
[A Special {Training Quest} has been generated: [Clean Master Felicia's House Only Using Alchemy Magic]
[Your master has spoken, and she wants her house so clean she can even eat food on the floor. And you're going to have to clean it all using only Alchemy Spells, yes, only Magic Spells, no Skills.]
[If you ever use Skills, this Quest will be immediately failed, and you won't be able to get the rewards. You only have ninety days to get this done with, as your Master stated.]
[Good luck!]
[Completion Rewards: [EXP] [???] [???] [???]
[Time Limit: 90 Days.]
I wonder if Felicia can detect the Fusion Alchemy Skill as something else than magic. I better follow the Quest and just not use it; I can tell it is probably predicting it won't work properly.
Using Clean Spell would be much easier than using Alchemy, but I suppose it can't be helped, huh? We'll have to do this the old-fashioned way.
Or well, the most complicated way possible, actually.
"To start with, you girls will begin in far away places. My house has a total of... forty floors, I think," she said. "Celeste will start at the bottom, Celica in the middle, and Sylphy on top. Meaning that everyone has to do a minimum of 13 floors, there will be then one last floor, you can do it together or whatever."
"So we do whatever we want? Is there a competition of sorts?" wondered Celeste.
"Not really, cooperate and do your best!" Felicia smiled. "If you can get this done in less than a month, then I'll give you a reward to all three of you, do your best!"
"I thought we would do actual alchemy, master! What's the point of all the tools you bought us?" sighed Celica, complaining.
"I'm sorry dear, but you need to first practice. Synthesis alone is not the answer," Felicia smiled. "Now, now, don't feel so bad, it is for the greater good of everyone!"
"Yeah sure..." Celeste groaned.
"I guess there's no point in discussing or delaying the inevitable, let's do our best, girls," I said. "Dad, what are you going to do anyways?"
"Oh, me? I don't really know for sure, but I guess I'll be practicing, cultivating, and hunting," said dad. "Unless Felicia has another plan for me? Maybe I could help too?"
"No, Allan, do as you please but don't help the girls, this is something they must do on their own," said Felicia. "I'll be inside my room for now, so bye-bye."
She walked away after that.
"Oh well, do your best girls. Once it's lunch time I'll call you," dad said.
"Thanks dad! I guess we better start already," I nodded.
Without much else to do, we moved on our separate endeavors. Celeste moved downstairs to the underground floors, which were around five, at the very bottom of everything.
Meanwhile, I walked upstairs with Celica.
"Heh, master Felicia is a bit weird I suppose..." sighed Celica. "I just hope this can work out... How do we clean in the first place?"
Once we reached the desired floor, I showed Celica, who had yet to figure it out.
"You use the Synthesis Spell on the dust-covered floor, synthetize all the dust you can find together into a big ball, and throw it out of the window I suppose" I said, showing her. "Maybe store it inside your storage ring as well, like this. {Synthesis}"
I imbued the power of the spell into my hands, as I gently rubbed it over the wooden floor. Slowly, the dust gathered into a ball of gray color, and then strengthened to the point of becoming a solid, gray-colored stone.
"Woah, it's like a stone now?" wondered Celica.
"Not completely, if I crush it, it will explode into dust," I sighed, throwing the dust ball inside of Glutton's jaws. "Anyways, try it first. It's dull and stupid, but we have to do it."
"Yeah... okay!" Celica nodded.
She cutely squatted on the ground ands tarted touching the floor, slowly, the dust gathered in her hands and merged together into two balls.
"I did two!" she said.
"Nice! You're talented! Keep doing that until... it's completely clean I guess?" I laughed a bit.
"Though, cleaning the ceiling is going to be hard without flying spells! Can't we ask master if we can use them?" Celica wondered.
"You may use them only if its aid in movement," suddenly, master's voice echoed from the ceiling, as we saw a big jewel eye appear in the wooden ceiling.
"Woah, you can talk through the house?!" I asked.
"Naturally, this house is more than just a wooden house, you see, it is my Domain, and it slightly alive as well, enough to form a familiar contract with me, no less!" laughed Felicia.
"Surprised?"
"T-That's possible?!" Celica wondered.
"It sure is! Now, start with it already, girls!" Felicia's eye disappeared after that.
"You heard her," I shrugged. "Do your best Celica, let's have lunch later."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Okay Sylphy!" Celica nodded, but then came running behind me and hugged me. "I gave you back the hug from the morning!" she smiled cutely.
"Aww, aren't you a cutie?" I sighed, hugging her back and caressing her silky hair, kissing her forehead. "Do your best, for Zephyrus too!"
"Y-Yeah!" she blushed a bit. "Right, Zephy must be working hard too, right? I gotta do my best, definitely!"
"Yep!"
As I walked upstairs, I thought about that as well, beginning to wonder how mom and Zephyrus was doing. Mist and Lara had come with them too, so they were all a big party.
If I remember correctly, their destination was the Ancient Inheritance of the first ever Saintess? To inherit some of her powers or cultivation techniques, I think.
Lara is a given, but I hope Zephyrus and Mist can get some as well...
I am wishing them the best luck from here!
