Master Of None

Chapter 1359 1359. Remey's Training Plan

"Are you really sure that we shouldn't tell the others about this?" Onyx was voicing the very last of his concerns. He felt that not telling the rest of the party what they had planned was unfair. But he wasn't one to keep secrets in the first place.

"They will be fine. We are going to look for fire elemental materials along with what we need. You and I both know that you want the light and darkness affinity potions made sooner than later." Remey had been hard at work studying the materials in the lava lands before he left. The very reason was for Onyx and her development.

"But you said that the chances of us finding the burnt light leaves is very low. They are a rare high tier triple elemental herb!" Onyx felt that he was being teased but didn't know enough to fight Remey.

"I said that they would be impossible to find. But since you have me, I will just punch through it all to get what we need." Remey was partially joking while also sure that she would be able to find what they needed. She had worked hard to study the area and growing conditions.

Seeing that onyx needed a little more to calm down, she continued speaking, "The burnt light leaves grow on a round bush. They absorb the light elemental mana to the point that they start to burn but not catch flames. The burnt pieces lose their light elemental mana and absorb darkness elemental mana to resist fully burning. It is a perfect balance that traps the fire elemental mana." This was exactly why the burnt light leaves were considered to be so rare.

"I understand that. They are an enigma when compared to other singular or dual elemental herbs." Since Onyx had studied some things, he was sure that the herb was unique to the volcano areas.

"That balance makes it have purer elemental mana trapped within each leaf. Based on how it is processed, it can have many effects. In your case, I can focus the ingredients to create a light and dark affinity potion. The effectiveness will fall but it will have both manas. Or I can remove one to create a specific high elemental mana potion of light or dark." She already knew that the old master alchemist would be crying to get his hands on these herbs.

? "That all changes if I make it a fire elemental affinity potion. I could make a high fire affinity potion that can drastically help someone. Or, I can make a potion with a few more unique fire elemental ingredients to make an affinity potion made for me. For me and my partner." The alchemy fire spirit was enjoying the atmosphere. The heat and fire elemental mana moved to encase it.

"You can make an alchemy fire affinity potion!?" Onyx was amazed that such a level of alchemy was already comprehended by Remey even though she had not been participating in the actions for many years.

"No. That's not it. But I can make something similar. A potion that helps me adjust to alchemy fire. I can manipulate it in a rough way. It's not at all the same with how my partner controls their flames." The alchemy fire spirit had a massive amount of control over the mana it was made out of.

"So you want to be able to control it better and this potion will do that?"

"Exactly. This will help me train my resistance to it. Technically it will be a poison. One that makes alchemy fire mana hurt me more. Don't tell Su. she might lock me up for doing this." The extreme training was not unheard of. Many defenders had to go through quests with such training to become resistant to certain elemental mana attacks. The dragonkin did this with the affinities they had as well.

"Su would not allow you to do this. But that brings me to my next question, can you make one for me?" Onyx wanted to become stronger as well. If Remey was going to put herself through brutal training that would force her beyond her limits, then why would Onyx shy away from such a thing?

"I thought you would ask that so I have some materials being held on to for when we get back. I will not make one for any of the other abyssal or heavenly serpents. I will refuse since they are not like us. Too young, and not on the front lines of constant surprises." There was much more seriousness in Remey's voice saying this. Onyx was not going to argue against her.

"After the potion and training regime I carefully built, I should be able to fight much better. I looked in to some very old books that Gil might be able to get more information on. The flame elves one had very high alchemy affinities. Some even coated their bodies in armor made of their flames. Alchemists weren't always like Trish, they didn't need potions to cause explosions or poison mists. They used the very flames they used to make potions as weapons."

"So it isn't just Gil looking to help bring back older traditions. You might bring back a proper battle alchemist." Onyx was interested because he had finally found why Remey hadn't teased Gil about the subject matter of his recent studies.

"You're doing the same things Onyx. I saw you looking at those ancient murals of abyssal and heavenly serpents. You want to bring back the strength they once had and form your own race. That's why you and I are working together on this one. Now let's go find a lava creek with a lot of light shining on it." The pair continued on their path through the burnt black rocks.
