Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!-Chapter 190 Wanting To Create Another Item

?Wanting To Create Another Item

[Ace POV],

'Ugh'

'To think I'll fall asleep unconsciously,' I thought as I slowly opened my eyes, turning to look at the unfamiliar dimly lit room that was becoming familiar as I turned to take a seat on the bed before going through my thoughts.

For one thing, it was better to say that I now had a location that could supply me with enough monsters for my job quest.

The monsters were rather weak and plentiful, but the problem was that they were all in one place, rendering my strength useless because the end result was still going to be me ending up as bones.

So I wasn't going back or even getting close to the earth rats and mutated earth rats den until I had enough strength and preparations.

As I considered this, I turned to look at my gains from the earth rats den, and when I saw the number of crystal cores I had in addition to the total number of coins I had, I immediately began to have a lot of thoughts in my head.

For one, I had slightly more than 1000 gold coins and 488 crystal cores, which I thought was still a lot, but as humans say, having too much is never a sin.

Leaving aside what I was going to do with the crystal cores, I already knew what I needed to do now: practice Alchemy.

While I had previously practiced Alchemy, I would say that my time spent creating items with it was minimal, and the items I did create with it were only items that purely serve a supporting role, such as my pills.

It's not that the pills have become obsolete or have served their purpose.

Pill making is a trademark ability of alchemy, so I couldn't stop it either, but because I had already reached a point where I needed to start creating something else with alchemy, it was time for me to start creating something else with alchemy.

It wouldn't take long for me to become a Trainee Alchemist by making pills, but I knew that it would be a while before I had another sort of breakthrough with pills, and there was also the part where I didn't want to be an Alchemist solely for making pills. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

Perhaps I could concentrate more on it, but I also wanted to concentrate on other aspects of alchemy such as formations, magical arrays, runes, inscriptions, and so on.

I've had this thought before, and I've been thinking about it for a while.

Alchemy is the process of combining various elements to create something new.

Well, according to my understanding.

That's why it has aspects like formations and potion making, and the thing was that these two had their own professions.

Formations are typically performed by formation masters, which happened to be in alchemy.

It's the same with potion making because it was usually made by potionists or potion masters as they're referred to, but this was also an aspect in alchemy, which means that as long as I was willing to spend more time and spread myself out with the other ascepts of alchemy, it wouldn't be impossible to also turn these professions to mine, such as becoming a Trainee Formation Master through Alchemy.

Perhaps this is the true Alchemy in reality, because we alchemists appear to be jacks of all trades but masters of none.

It may appear to be a disadvantage, but if one thinks about it carefully, it isn't.

Perhaps my thoughts were flawed, but that was something for the future to show me because right now, it was time to choose which aspect of Alchemy I wanted to explore next, and after a little while of thinking and considering the materials and resources at my disposal, I finally decided on which one I could do next.

My final option was runes.

When the roles of runes and pills were considered, it was still the same thing, but unlike the pills I can currently make, runes were more versatile in the sense that they could be used for both support and combat.

That is, at least, what I understand from my head knowledge.

I won't know how right or wrong I am until I thoroughly go through it.

As I considered these things, I rose from my bed and made my way outside from the basement back to the living room via the stairs to see if the others had returned before I began my upcoming experiments.

But that was only a minor reason for going up; my main reason for going up was that I needed to eat.

I remember dropping some food for Anna and the rest to keep in the mansion, and since I didn't want to touch the one in my storage ring, I used this opportunity to check on the food and choose what to eat while also stretching my legs, and because I also didn't want to go around in circles looking for where they stored the food, I decided to start from the kitchen first, and using the map that was provided in the mansion and it didn't take long before I found what I was looking for.

I also found what I was looking for after a little searching around in the kitchen, and without thinking too much about what to eat, I just grabbed a random can food from the kitchen drawer and left.

And, yes, none of my teammates had returned, and I didn't bother thinking about it because I knew why.

If I'm not mistaken, the time difference between the alternate dimension and the true world separated them.

Different in the sense that one time passed more quickly than the other.

The alternate dimension flowed faster than the true world, so thinking about it for a moment, the amount of time I spend here might be three or four times faster than it is in the true world, so my teammates not arriving by sun set from the true world is understandable given that it could still be early morning in the true world, but since this was not what I should be concerned about at the moment, I put it to the back of my mind before making my way down the stairs.

"I wonder what magical item I can make next," I muttered as I lit up my surroundings with my flames as I walked down the path ahead of me.
