章節 14: Chapter 14: Test it used it
"Jeremiah scan"
[Initiating...
Scanning.....]
"Let's see if this one failed then I would use this one..or maybe I'll use this method instead"
As he contemplated his option his peripheral vision caught something.
"Wait is this?"
Right beside the table he was using was a cart full of snacks and meals. From cookies and fruits to soups and grilled meat the cart was filled with foods he likes.
With a baffled expression, he approached the cart and saw a sticky note.
"It's okay to work hard but do not forget your meal...good luck little sun
- Tower mages"
Apollo couldn't help but laugh knowing how every mage inside the tower cherished him. Some mages inside the tower didn't have a chance to have a family of their own. Their entire life was dedicated to magic and no space was included for a family however all of it changed the moment he appeared. A little boy who had a trauma from his family became the center of affection for every mage inside the tower. They knew his pain and thus they became the family he couldn't have. The family, the real ones couldn't give, the mages of the four towers filled that position.
"I'll probably eat first before continuing my research"
Taking a chair he sat down and ate the still warm meal.
"So they put magic on the cart to keep the food warm"
The warmth brought by the meal couldn't be compared to the warmth the boy is currently feeling.
"It's delicious" he could only say as he sipped more of the soup.
[Creator scanning is finished]
"So the percentage?"
[Only 10% it seems the one you used isn't the one we are looking for]
"I see then we will use another one"
Night fell into the wizard tower however a single figure stood still no matter how calming the night breeze was.
"Good morning!" Greeted by Apollo when he saw five mages entering.
"Hey Apollo it seems like you didn't sleep"
It was 3 in the morning some stars could still be seen in the sky however the mages of the tower were already awake and ready to start their day.
"I didn't realise the time sorry"
"Nah it's okay don't apologize...here we brought breakfast since we knew you hadn't eaten yet"
It was the same cart he had seen last night the only difference was the food it contained.
"Thanks"
"Eat as much as you want you can just start what you are doing after you take your breakfast"
Apollo nodded to their advice and ate quietly and quickly.
Currently, Apollo made 200 attempts to create the right formula however he still failed. He tried replacing or adding more ingredients however it only lowered the success percentage.
"23 is still the highest"
He thought while munching a newly baked bread.
"Hmm?... little sun isn't this Segundo Alfonso's alchemic formula?"
"Yes sir Carlo"
"Wait Carlo let me see what little sun is doing"
Soon the five mages studied the formulas Apollo had created and an expression full of astonishment filled their faces.
"Amazing you did this overnight"
"I think you should lower the ratio of this one and increase the ratio for this"
"I recommend adjusting the heat like this"
Soon they began to point out the stuff they found fault and give him methods that can make the process faster.
Apollo on the other hand listened to every word they said while he ate the bread in his hand.
"Alright we will leave you to what you are doing since we have to submit these potions by noon"
"By the way sir Carlo, what are you guys even making?" Apollo asked looking at the layer of flask on the Senior mage's table.
"What we are making are health potions, detox pills potions and agility potions....all of which will be used for the yearly hunts managed by the imperial family"
"The yearly Wild Hunters Festival so it will be held after the banquet "
"It will be little Sun although the imperial banquet only happens every 5 years the hunting festival happens every year"
"Well isn't the reason it was called yearly?"
Carlo couldn't but chuckle looking at how the four senior mages argue.
"Well like we said we will leave now tell us if you need anything"
"Thanks, seniors"
Apollo bowed a bit as he said this then when they all went towards their respective tables. They didn't mind each other and focused on the task they had.
"Let's see according to them I should separate these two while separating this one"
He began doing the same process he did before. Grind, extract, boil, heat and distilled then repeat.
A couple of times he did this until he came up with the same results as before.
[15% success rate]
"I need a reactant capable of modifying the cells in the blood...just what herb is it!"
Then it occurred to him what if the missing ingredient isn't a type of plant but instead an already finished potion?
[A mixture or a chemical reaction?]
"Whatever will fulfil what I wanted will do"
There is also the part where he could just drink both potions instead of doing a mixture or he could combine the building chemical reaction of the two substances so he could create a new type of drug.
"Drinking two drugs together can either cause a synergistic or an antagonistic effect"
[An elaborate calculation should suffice Creator]
"Then I should first make the reactant using all my previous attempts then I'll combine them with the dark elixir formulas I studied a while ago"
Apollo's hand began to move across his notebook writing and modifying the things he found needed. Then from calculating he proceeds to make the drug. With another round of alchemic process, he finally made the finished product.
"I should test this shouldn't I?"
[Creator if you are thinking of using it on yourself you better not]
Jeremiah made a warning however Apollo wasn't listening. He just attainably stared at his creation of potion trying to analyze it then he took the previous failed attempts and began to mix them.
"Analysis Jeremiah"
[Analyzing.....
...
Analysis complete...
Creator, I congratulate you ...you gain a percentage of 95%]
Hearing those words made Apollo jump in happiness making the five senior mages look at him.
"Sorry seniors I just made a breakthrough"
"That's okay but don't forget to eat those"
Carlo said as he pointed towards the cart full of food.
"It's past lunch little sun" he reminded the boy.
"I didn't notice the time" The boy with the sunset hair couldn't help but scratch the back of his head as he felt embarrassed.
"Eat up it's almost close to dusk"
"I will, senior thank you"
He momentarily took a flask and put the contents of the test tube there.
"I'll test this later"
He said as he ran towards the cart full of snacks and food.
"Another note hahaha"
He chuckled while reading another note from the mages of the tower.
"I'll eat all of this" he excitedly said gulping down the soup then he switched to munching the bread he always liked.
[Creator it seems like the effects of the drug would fade the longer it stays]
"Wait let me see"
Apollo still holding his favourite bread approach his table and use an analyzing spell.
"You are right...this is a good discovery nice one Jeremiah"
[You are welcome Creator]
Apollo became suddenly excited and ate as fast as he could when he finished his meal he proceeded to redo what he did.
[Congratulations Creator you have a 98% success rate]
"Nice then let's test it"
The test tube was still hot from all the process Apollo did however the boy didn't mind and gulped it all down.
[!?]
[Initiating Total body scan....
Preparing for nullification of toxin...]
Just like what he felt before an unexplainable heat spread across his body however this time the intensity is way more intense.
"Hooo..." He exhaled loudly fortunately Carlo and the rest of the senior mages were out to take their dinner so Apollo was left inside the laboratory.
"Calm down keep calm" he exclaimed while seeing the live progress using Jeremiah's analysis.
"It's still not enough!"
He saw the process suddenly slow down which made the boy take the potion he did first.
[An anomaly has been detected...
Unknown energy has been detected...
A foreign energy has been detected starting nullification...]
Apollo stares wide open at the screen seeing a foreign mana interrupting his awakening.
"So that anomaly was this"
It turns out the thing Jeremiah was trying to prevent was an unknown mana residing inside his body. This energy slowly tries to eliminate the effects of the modification.
"This won't do!" He took the flask and although its percentage level decreased to 80% it's better than nothing.
"Argh!"
He groaned in pain feeling the clash of foreign two energy inside his body.
"Jeremiah start the nullification"
[The process already started Creator rest assured]
To Apollo's surprise, he saw a magic circle embedded in his chest.
"What the!?"
This magic circle began to seal his mana making the boy suffocate.
[Nullification in process]
With Jeremiah's voice, Apollo took out a scroll and activated it.
"Jeremiah push through the nullification!"
With blood dripping from his mouth, the boy sat down and endured the pain of being burned and stabbed.
