62. Poison Specialist (3)
After the lecture, Sally Merina was called by Professor Marina and went to her private office.
“Miss Celie Merina, do you know why I called?”
“…… “
“Just today, I warned you several times. But Miss Merina didn’t listen to me.”
“… Sorry.”
Shelly closed her eyes tightly. She was aware that she was wrong, and her self-esteem was shattered, so she couldn’t lift her head.
“If Student Woros hadn’t told me not to mind her, I would have kicked Miss Shelly out. She tried to impose penalty points too, but that’s because the Woros student said it was okay. So please don’t let this happen again.”
“Yes.”
“Then go back.”
“Hey… professor.”
Shelly still had her head down. She wanted to go back quickly and rest, but there was something she had to point out.
“That poison created by Woros Blood… Can you tell me what it is?”
“I was going to do a class with the poison the students made in the next class.”
“I definitely want to see you. I know it’s rude, but… Please.”
“Haa, I can’t help but say that.”
Professor Marina rummaged through her reports on her desk, pulled out her War Los Blood report, and handed it over to her Sally. Celie reads her report slowly.
“That’s right… What sign is this… “
“It’s Ricin.”
“If it is ricin… Castor Seeds… But there was no castor among the ingredients… “
“There were no poisonous castor seeds, but there were castor stalks. Ms. Shelly, I’ll be honest. It’s the first time I’ve seen this combination. One thing is for sure, it used Alchemy’s Synthesis and Decomposition. Because I saw it. I was trying to figure it out from now on.”
At Marina’s words, Celie opens her mouth as if she is at a loss for words, and she stares blankly at her report. The recipe for the combination was written in the report. According to the recipe, a total of 43 additives were added when Woros made the poison. The problem is that Woros only had 6 ingredients to choose from when making this poison.
“With 6 types of ingredients. By repeating decomposition and synthesis, 43 types of additives were created. The material listed above, ricin, was also synthesized in the same way.”
“How can this… Without a synthetic formula.”
“To understand the combination formula of Woros, you need to understand not only synthesis and disassembly, but also materials. Maybe… Miss Shelly now will not understand. The phase shift of alchemy—”
“If it is my master, I know to some extent. But… You only had an hour. Even if you know the recipe and try it, it’s a tough job… How”
What Woros did was an eccentricity that ignored the laws of physics itself. Synthesis. Decomposition. Condensation. Union. Solidification. Decompose power. Until enchantment. Even if you deal with one, it was written in the report that the difficult task was carried out in multiple.
The problem is time. The poison preparation time was only one hour. It would have taken 30 minutes even if everything else was turned off and enchanted. But how
“You don’t seem to understand. The Secret is a method of enchantment and disintegration that Woroth used independently. In an instant, it gave me the magic needed for that situation. It’s like using only the necessary effects and disassembling them right away before the enchantment is fully enchanted. Documentation related to that is on page 3.”
“If you look at it… I don’t know Is that possible in the first place?”
“It is not impossible. I don’t even know how to do a little bit. That part will be detailed in the Combat Alchemy part you learn in 3rd grade. Because experience and senses are important skills. During the required classes, only the theory classes will be included.”
Celie seemed completely stunned, shaking her hand holding her report.
“Ms. Shelly. This is the skill of Woros that you ignored and cursed. It is also the reason why I like Woros students.”
Marina May gets up from her seat, and she puts her hand on Maryna’s shoulder.
From noble mtl dot com
“Woros is a genius. By the time he graduates from graduate school, there will be no one in the Alchemy Society who doesn’t know Woros.”
“… Woros seems to be going to graduate school.”
“…Anyway, the Woros said this. Above the running guy is the flying guy. Miss Shelly will have to live with her words in her heart.”
“I still don’t understand. Until last year, Woros… “
“Because last year he only took an alchemy theory class. It seems that the test was also taken care of. He wouldn’t have had a chance for his talent to be exposed.”
Marina whispers, holding her report lying in front of Sally.
“Either she didn’t notice her own talent. Or maybe she’s been hiding it, or one of the two. In any case, Miss Shelly will have to thank Woros.”
“…… “
“I was going to impose a big penalty on Miss Shelly. Ms. Shelley’s repeated mocking and ignoring of others deserved disciplinary action, but Woros asked her to end with caution.”
“…… “
Shelley bit her mouth shut. She had no choice but to shut up.

As soon as the lecture was over, I hurried to my shop. They are moving in a hurry because there is something they must check.
‘I saw… ‘
During the work, I felt that the already developed sense of alchemy became stronger with the pop-up indicating that the level of Had risen. Before synthesizing substances, at what intensity should mana flow and synthesize them? This is before mixing the liquids, so you can sense what the result will be if you mix them.
I didn’t understand it with my head, but my senses should do it this way. This has signaled that it will fail. I was so excited about my ability, I had already seen the poison synthesis formula, but I disassembled all the ingredients and created a new synthesis formula.
It was an impromptu synthetic formula, and I proceeded immediately without knowing why it worked. I didn’t understand it with my head, but my senses were telling me that this was unconditional, so my hand didn’t stop. As a result, Marina May also created a surprising item.
“This is… Is it a craftsman’s sense?”
I’ve seen a video like this before. The work of a person who puts an eyepatch on his eyes and guesses the origin of salt just by touching it with his fingers. But, I could understand now. Because I’m on that level too.
I don’t intend to be conceited just because my skills have improved. Yes, Shaiza, who taught me this skill, must also have this ability. No, since he has a higher level than me and has had a lot of experience, he must have developed his senses to the point where he can’t compare to me now.
Even she couldn’t create her own elixir. Of course, I’m going to take over the Elixir research data that Shaiza has completed 80% of the time, so I don’t have to suffer as much as Shaiza. Because there is a huge difference between starting at 0 and starting at 1. Not to mention, if you’re starting from the 80’s.
Anyway, my goal is Elixir, so I need to grow similarly to Shaiza in the area of potion manufacturing, even if I don’t know about other studies.
“Is the senior here?”
“Nishia was here. Wait a minute, I’ll use the workbench.”
“Yes, please.”
Nishia moves to her table with the ingredients for the scented candle on the workbench. To be honest, I can only see various alchemy materials near the workbench right now. As my senses told me, I picked up the materials and laid them out on the workbench.
I can’t quite explain what this feeling is like. I want to make something, and the urge to learn more dominates me. It’s not a bad impulse, so I decided to be honest with this feeling.
“What are you making, senior?”
“It is an experiment rather than a creation. Something just came to my mind.”
Using magic, I succeeded in disassembling the beeswax strawberries and separating the essence of magic gardening and the ingredients of normal beeswax. Because the essence of magic gardening was so difficult to understand, simple combination and disassembly were possible. It was an impossible task to disassemble only the essence of pure magic gardening.
It was even more meaningful because it was not done with a magical horticultural plant, but with a finished product called beeswax strawberry.
Now you can feel the essence of magic gardening through your senses. With this work, the ingredients in the bee’s body have changed minutely. In other words, they succeeded in extracting traces of magic gardening, which was impossible until now.
“What is this?”
“You know the flower that contained the life I had, right? You made oil from it, and you made beeswax strawberries with that oil.”
“Did you say the name of the ingredient is oil full of life?”
“Right. I have succeeded in isolating only that part from the wax. And as the oil passed from the bark to the bees and from the bees to the strawberries, it changed to the nature of protein. That is it.”
I showed Nishia the protein I had just extracted, full of life.
“Protein? What are you going to make with it?”
“I think I can turn this into powder. It will take a little more research, but if we can dramatically increase the purity of the powder… ”
“What if?”
“Maybe we can make a new discovery.”
Nishia’s eyes start to sparkle at the word “New discovery”.
“What, what is it? Don’t only know seniors, let me know too!”
“Nishia, what do you think is the biggest weakness of potions?”
“Yeah… Since it’s a liquid, isn’t it because it’s heavy if you carry it around a lot?”
“Yes. Potions are different depending on the type, but there is something called a single intake. The lower the purity, the more potions you have to carry around to be effective.”
I continued as I tapped the glass bottle containing the protein with my finger.
“But because of its weight, it is difficult to carry a large amount, so I have no choice but to put the potion in a small bottle. That’s why low-level potions aren’t effective.”
“It is inevitable. But you can’t drink the whole bottle. Ah! And the downside came to mind again. If you drink the potion, you will be full. If you drink too much, you will get diarrhea.”
“Yes. Since the potion itself is a liquid, it must be an unavoidable limitation. But what about Nishia?”
I put the vial of protein on the workbench.
“It is to make potion pills that are about the size of a fingernail. If it was made, it would be possible right now. It’s because if you powder that protein and put it in a capsule, that’s it.”
“Po, potion pills? Have you never heard of such a thing?”
“Yes. You’ll have to make it, but it’s less effective than a potion unless you’re constantly scooping up a whole barrel’s worth of powder. That’s why I said we need to find a way to increase the purity.”
Nishia clapped her hands at my words. After I smiled at her once, I continued her words.
“If you find a way, you can make potion pills. It can make up for all the shortcomings of healing potions that have been circulating on the market so far. Even if one pill can produce the effect of an intermediate potion. The volume is smaller, you won’t be full even if you eat a lot, and of course you won’t get diarrhea.”
“Ohh… Ohhh!”
“No matter how high the purity is. A single pill can’t do more than an ordinary healing potion, but where is it?”
To be honest, I can make magic gardening potions, so I don’t need healing potion pills. Rather than carrying around a lot of pills. It would be better to carry two or three potions of magical gardening.
Still, there is only one reason why I am stuck on pills. Because no one else could So, I want to make it. To be honest, the pill itself wouldn’t be without technology. The problem is that the ability to recover HP that can be contained in one pill is very small, so I guess everyone gives up and doesn’t develop it.
But I have the skill of magic gardening. If you study it well, you might be able to make it. Even if you make powder with ordinary herbs, the effect will be insignificant, but it will be possible because the performance of magic gardening materials is incomparable to that of ordinary herbs.
Above all, potion pills are not in Shaiza’s recipe, so I really want to succeed.
“Anyway, I should stay in the workshop until relatively late today.”
“You mean my workshop? Then I will stay late.”
“Well then, let’s have dinner together at the workshop tonight.”
“Good! Then I’ll buy a chicken-“
“No… “
I smiled at Nishia and continued.
“I’m going to buy dinner.”
At my words, the smile disappeared from Nishia’s lips.
