I quickly crushed ten of my Spirit Orbs into dust, as the man had not given me any spirit orbs as he saw that I had a bag with them.

After they were turned into dust, I also turned Mana Stones into dust.

Mana Stones are special ores mined from Magic Mountains. They can recover a big amount of Mana when absorbed and can be absorbed by anyone. But they're often used as alchemy components and materials to make Mana Potions that truly regenerate Mana.

Absorbing Mana Stones for a person would be like absorbing Spirit Orbs for me, minus the slight increase in cultivation.

After pouring the dust of both spirit orbs and mana stones over five liters of boiling water, I let it rest for a few minutes, slowly mixing it until the dust was completely merged with the water and turned it blue-colored.

This is where the blue color of Mana Potions comes from.

After that, I cut down the herbs and put them both in water separately.

Washing them off their toxins and any other bugs there might be on them, and then, I added them to the mix.

Berehilde Grass and Morning Dew Flower Petals are very rare grasses that I had not even encountered in the wild yet. These two plants are said to have strong magic properties and can hasten mana regeneration when consumed, however, the Berehilde Grass can cripple you if you consume too much of it due to its toxin.

I learned as much just by looking at them with my eyes. Seeing such materials in detail was of great insight. I can already tell that these are grown in special farms to be sold to Alchemists…

Erika had woken up midway through my alchemy, and she opened her eyes wide as she saw me working carefully.

"Wow, Blake, what are you doing?" she asked.

"A potion, I have yet to use any magic but now I will begin, this is what will differentiate me from others." I said.

Of course, Alchemy is based on making magical items! So you have to use magic, not just throw items, and boil them down, that will only give you a poisonous soup.

While keeping some Spirit Orbs in hand, I began conjuring Alchemy Magic, the lowest of spells should be more than enough to make the work of someone with a Talent for Alchemy look like garbage.

"Infusion, Assimilation, Components, Alchemy… Synthesis!"

FLASH!

The runes flashed out of my hand and rotated around the entire cauldron, the ingredients suddenly began to glow with bright light, as I continued to conjure more and more runes as I consumed almost all my Spirit Orbs while trying to keep the conjuring up.

Erika and her father looked at the scene in awe as I continued to conjure Synthesis, the simplest yet the strongest Spell of Alchemy, it literally lets you fuse materials and make new products out of them.

Of course, there was also all the masterfulness of my craft added into the mix, all the things I had learned by myself were added too, my meticulous preparation, the conjuration of runes in very specific places, and more… everything came together until it was done.

FLASH!

The mana potion glowed with a bright yellow light, forming a golden aura around it.

[You have made a Unique-Grade Item, Mana Potion!]

[You learned the [Alchemy: Lv1] Skill]

Oh? An Alchemy Skill!

Look at that… it appears that I have been rewarded for my efforts.

And well, the potion is only… Unique Grade… Ugh, this is actually garbage for me, but I suppose it is gold for the people here. He was already selling a Normal Grade Potion at 50 coins, a Unique Grade is two grades above, so it should be way better… and without any aftereffects as well.

Items seem to have grades, from Normal, Rare, Unique, Mythic, Legendary, and so on. They determine the quality of the product and how strong or great their effects can be.

With this, I can not only make a bottle but at least… around ten? I had used a lot of water, but the effects were not diluted due to Synthesis, this amazing Alchemy Magic Spell is really useful even now.

I could even use it to merge materials and craft equipment, but that would be for later, I am exhausted.

Exhausting my mana and then recovering it with spirit orbs over and over again was really a massive pain, and I am already dealing with a strong headache…

"A-Amazing! S-Such an incredible Mana Potion! I had only seen something barely similar when I saw the Saint of Alchemy make her potions for the Royal Family!" said Erika's father.

"Wow! Blake, you're so great!" said Erika.

I was receiving praises from left and right, but I was too tired to answer, I sat down in a chair and ended up passing out on the spot.

I found myself inside the Spirit Orb, Eleanora had been sleeping there most of the time but she woke up when I was talking with the merchant and has been whispering things to me, she even helped me convince my father by using her Charm Skill.

"You did a splendid work!" she said.

"Ah, did I pass out?!" I asked.

"Y-Yeah…" she said.

"Huh… Oh well, let's spend some time together." I said.

"Sure!" she said happily.

Spending time with Eleanora was bliss for me, after five years without her, I had thought I would never see her again, and I had already assumed that I had lost her forever.

Having her here at my side always filled me with joy.

"You were very incredible there, fufu... Your father was freaking out a lot!" She giggled as we were training Aether.

"Indeed… It was very hard to convince him, but it is now done. I have to simply make the potions and bring them back to the merchant later… In fact, if I bring them right now, he'll go even crazier… He could be the connection I require to make my family into citizens…" I said.
