Master Of None

The old master alchemist went to the small wall of potions and took one off the shelf. Walker already knew what it was. It was clearly the mid tier potion that Remey had failed at making but the master alchemist had succeeded. "Have you ever wanted to boost your water elemental affinity temporarily? Then this water affinity potion can do exactly that."

There were no words. Trish looked as if she had been hit with a strong ice spell and frozen on the spot. She had heard many things, often from want to be apprentices, that didn't make any sense. A potion that could enhance the water elemental affinity or a potion that could enhance any affinity at all was just too out there. 

"I did not believe I was getting to this age. But, I thought you just said water elemental affinity." Her small smile was still paired with worried eyes. 

"That is exactly what we said. We have managed to make low tier and a few mid tier potions. Once we open the guild for sales, this will be the most valuable potion until we get more herbs to make other things. I wouldn't say it was easy to get the materials. We had to go to a water dragon village to get them." Trish was hit again by Remey's words.

"You-...a dragon village? What herbs? How is it made? What are the exact effects? No, wait. I can appraise it myself with my system skills…" Trish was running a million miles a second now. Her world had been shaken and it was amazing. 

There were many things in this world that had brought Trish wonder over the years. The first had been when she accidentally discovered her system and the alchemy nature of it. The next becoming the new potions she had improved for her people and how they had helped them. When the party showed up and she had the chance to work on the cataloging of a brand new never before seen skill with a brand new never before seen system, it was a dream. Yet here she was, the dream starting yet again. She was standing in a guild uniting multiple kingdoms and holding a potion that she had never imagined would exist. 

"Do you know what the water mages in my kingdom would do to be able to grasp a new understanding of water elemental mana? This will be the most sought after potion in generations. I can't believe water will become the most dominant magic in the world…Unless… The are other elemental affinity potions?" Trish looked at Remey and the old master alchemist who did not so much as flinch. 

"Well, since Remey told me about her trip and showed the herbs she received, I have been enamored with the new knowledge. If you have the time to join me in my experiments, I do believe we can find other elemental affinity potion ingredients for all the affinities." The old master alchemist's attempt to remain calm was foiled completely. His smile burst on to his face and he started pulling down ingredients. 

Walker, Onyx, and Remey watched as this occurred. He had nearly forgotten that Su and Alice were right behind him silently looking around in awe. It was completely clear that Alice and Su had not been able to get the same understanding of alchemy as Walker. Their silence had not been due to disrespect or anything else. It was sheer wonder. They lacked knowledge and the more they listened the more they realized they knew almost nothing about alchemy. 

Su in particular was stunned. She had heard Remey ramble about potions and herbs so many times that she had begun to let it slide pasted her. But now that she saw everything, heard what the uses were, and the detailed plan for the future, she had nothing else that she could say. It was too spectacular of an accomplishment. 

Since Alice felt a little lost she pulled don Walker's sleeve. He knew instantly that she was wondering what was going on and how the potion worked. "It's a new potion made to boost the affinity for a certain time. Basically, someone who can use water elemental magic will have an easier time understanding and learning about it during the time they are affected by the potion. Not to mention an easier time using the water elemental mana. There might be one for light elemental affinity one day too." 

Hearing that she might be able to one day take a potion that would enhance her ability to use light elemental mana to heal, Alice smiled a little. She still wasn't clear on how it all worked but she was clear on what it did. That was enough for her to be able to see how valuable it really was and how it would be able to change the world as they knew it. Many people would travel here just for this and only this. 

"Remey, that is very amazing. But I am curious if you will be able to create a potion that enhances earth elemental affinity. I would like to see if it can help my partner and I get closer." The thought that Su had had, was that she would be able to better understand the earth elemental spirit which was dwelling in her shield better. That would lead to a strong er skill and even more potential. 

"I don't know but I wanted to test the same thing with a fire affinity potion for alchemy fire." The alchemy fire spirit drifted over from the flames beneath the cauldron and silence Trish. She was about to start rambling with a million questions when Walker spoke up. 

"So in theory, Fleur and I could use all the affinity options at the same time and get better at nature elemental mana?" Walker said this calmly thinking that it was a crazy idea. Fleur, who had been hiding in his hair, was finally noticed by Trish when Fleur moved to see the answer to this question. Trish was yet again stunned in to silence.
