Master Of None

"What are you going on about?" Walker couldn’t fully understand why Remey had managed to drag him all the way here when he had been busy finalizing any items that he would bring back to the endless night forest. He had also issued a list of people that would be coming as well.

All of this had been very important since the people gathered all needed their own materials. They had to be the perfect people to establish the starts of a naturally occurring rune area the same way that Genesis had already been doing for the magic tower expansion projects.

So far, they had several locations showing signs that a naturally occurring rune would be appearing. However, there was the issue that they would need to mix their knowledge with what the witch born were doing within their own territory.

The manas there could be very different. The herbs that needed to be oriented as well might need to be changed. And furthermore, there was the fact that they would most likely need to work closely with the witches to use the witch born rune formations along with the rune formations that Genesis used.

Beyond that, the other issues could appear due to the differences in cultures and understandings of nature itself. So, Walker had been focusing greatly on the fact that he had to be prepared in both materials and also in the people he brought.

"I said that I am bringing potions that would boost their affinities but I want your blood to make a natural mana affinity potion of the lowest grade. Because if I make one of them I can use it to show them the fact that we can even make dual and triple affinity potions with their assistance."

Since Walker knew a dual light and dark affinity potion had been made, he was stunned. Why was his blood needed and why did it have to be natural mana?

"Forgive me for not understanding how this is more important, but we already have dual elemental affinity potions so why this?" He felt like he was asking a stupid question since Remey should have explained this from the beginning.

"What? It’s because you will be able to interact with all the witch brew potions they make there. Every single process they use is closer to nature and natural mana is the combination of all manas. So, if you consume it and show them the closeness of yourself to nature under the effects, then they will also work with me to develop better potions that allow more than just affinity to grow." the way that Remey spoke told Walker that she thought he would just understand this.

"So you want to learn to make a new type of affinity potion that is more similar to the ways that the witches use their magic and skills. I see. A potion that focused on the closeness of internal manas and nature rather than just boosting affinity plain as day to allow better understanding of the mana."

The idea was not bad, but Walker also wondered how it would end up different if the potion still affected the understanding of manas.

"You are still missing the point. A mage used the affinity potion to strengthen the understanding of their fire ball skill and how to use it with fire mana. But a farmer would use an earth affinity potion to try and understand what the soil needs, but it is lacking. So if we have a natural earth affinity potion made, then they could use that to better understand the earth and in their soil and what they need to do to help it with their skills."

Now the fog in his mind cleared and Walker saw the value. Because Remey could not just have a large number of these potions available and she also needed people who already could demonstrate these sorts of potion ideas, she wanted the the best possible person with the challenge of a tougher potion.

The natural mana potion was already hard to grasp so making a lower tier one with smaller effects was fine. It was the fact that it could help boost Walker’s understanding of natural mana which was already high because of his bond with Fleur that would show off a lot. And then also show that there was a chance to make improvements with the knowledge of the witch born race.

It offered a chance for the witch born to explain their methods and be equals rather than just taking knowledge and ignoring them. Remey was trying to establish a perfect harmony to allow for all the herb and potion knowledge to be passed back and forth to become one and the same.

Walker gave in at this point and shared a few drops of blood so that Remey could acclimate the potion to him better and increase the success rate. This was used for other potions than just unique affinity potions. The reason that it was not as focussed most of the time was that everyone did not need every potion they took to be perfectly in tune with them.

Right now though, she was also going to have Walker focus with her and help with controlling the manas. She had gathered many herbs for this one potion and would distill them over and over to ensure that she got the best ingredients to use.

"This is the iridescent clover, you can see the roots are entangled but each clover sprout has a different affinity? That’s the newest project from the herbalists. They found this clover got in to a greenhouse accidentally from a damaged spot where a rodent dug in. They found the clover outside had earth and inside had water affinity. Odd, but useful."

Another amazing weed that seemed to adjust to the increased changes in manas. Becoming a valuable research material and now herb for alchemy even though it did not have other qualities other than being able to adapt to other manas as it grew.

Walker curiously looked and noticed that it wasn’t found that the clover as an entire plant changed, instead it was the sap inside. The tiniest amount of sap was able to change fully to adapt to what mana was being absorbed. From there it altered the whole clover.

The only thing was, no other traits could be taken, for anything that ate it, that was it. Just eating a plant with different mana affinity. However, when it came to alchemy, that tiny amount of sap in the adolescent iridescent clover would allow for a much greater mixing of herbs in a potion.

Remey was demonstrating that right now. She was adding large amounts of the adolescent recent clover and pulling out the tiny amount of sap. The alchemy flame she created were not full of fire mana but still cause heat to dry out the clover and take the liquid from it.

The tiny amount was the key to mixing herbs of every form to then reduce slowly but surely with walkers blood to perfectly meld the manas. Walker was also providing dense natural mana in the air around the potion making process.

The potion was slowly but surely condensing and the useless remnant herbs which had been used to give it effects were set to the side. Walker felt this was wasteful until he noticed that the dried pieces were slowly being ground up by Remey now.

She wasn’t just making the potion from liquid, she was also using the dried portions to reincorporate some of the remnant herbs. This wasn’t for any enhancement of the potion, but Walker quickly realized it would lengthen the lifespan from one day to a full week. Meaning they would have more time to show off and make their deals official with the witch born race.

It was always amazing watching. Remey worked on something but Walker was also adding his own mana to the process. As this was the case, He could feel the slightest fluctuations in the way that she changed the alchemy flames.

Where some would see slightly larger flames, he could actually feel the smaller bits of mana being captured in them to protect the potion. A shocking level of control. He could learn a lot more from it as well.

"That’s it. You have your own personal potion. It’s in this vial and will be kept in a box made to trap manas from influencing it or leaving it. So, let’s get ready now." Enjoy more content from NovelBin.Côm

With Remey being so happy and Walker now able to go back to his work preparing, they felt that it was inevitable they would be making an official union between Genesis and the witch born race, more specifically, the coven’s grand witches.

The sun witch just had to be brought back with them. Something she might not necessarily want after her visit to Genesis.
