Reborn with Infinity Money System, I was Worshipped by All Universes!

Inside the top-floor chamber.

The Lv9 Forge roared with intense flames, resembling a sun that had fallen into the room, turning the air crimson with heat.

Amanda stood with her arms crossed, unintentionally emphasizing her perfect figure. However, she paid no attention to that—all her focus was on Velen, who stood at the center of the room.

Velen appeared somewhat nervous, which only made Amanda even more tense and expectant.

After all, he had completely disregarded the Supreme Forge earlier, and even his spellbeast companion treated a Lv9 Forge as a weapon.

Clearly, this man had an extraordinary background.

The alchemical potion he was about to create would undoubtedly be astonishing.

As Amanda pursed her red lips in nervous anticipation, Velen took a deep breath, seemingly calming himself down. Then, he began channeling his mana into the forge.

Fwoosh!

The already raging flames of the Lv9 Forge flared even stronger, as though someone had poured oil onto them.

"Impressive. The way he started the fire is incredibly fast—his rank is definitely not as simple as it seems..."

Amanda murmured to herself, watching him even more intently.

The first step had already exceeded expectations. Next, Velen needed to burn and refine the necessary ingredients, merging them together to create a potion.

"Everbloom—although only a Tier-1 herb, it's extremely rare. Among all Tier-1 materials, it's one of the most valuable."

Amanda took a deep breath.

If Velen was using Everbloom, then he was most likely trying to craft a Life Essence Potion—a powerful healing elixir.

Despite being a Tier-1 potion, it was incredibly difficult to make. Even Tier-2 and Tier-3 alchemists found it challenging. Only mid-tier alchemists above Tier-3 could attempt it with confidence.

The difficulty lay in the fact that the Life Essence Potion had four distinct layers, each with a different color. These layers had to be refined separately, using different temperatures and techniques…

Amanda was mentally recalling the process of crafting a Life Essence Potion when she suddenly froze.

She watched in shock as Velen casually threw the entire Everbloom into the forge—completely disregarding the proper procedure.

That would destroy the Everbloom!

Amanda was about to stop him when she saw him take out another Everbloom and throw it in.

What the hell?!

Amanda nearly lost her mind.

Everbloom was rare, even if it was only a Tier-1 ingredient. And this guy was burning them like firewood?!

Fwoosh!

Then came the third Everbloom.

The fourth…

The fifth…

Velen continued tossing Everblooms into the fire until there were over thirty inside the forge!

Amanda's entire face turned red.

Wasteful!

This was an absolutely appalling waste!

"Wait… that's a Three-Hundred-Year Fig?!"

Amanda's eyes widened again.

One fig…

Two figs…

Velen kept throwing them into the forge—not stopping until he had burned fifty of them!

Even then, he wasn't done. He took out something even rarer: Crimson Dragonfruit.

One…

Two…

Three…

Every ingredient Velen pulled out was so rare and expensive that even if every alchemist at the convention pooled their wealth together, they still wouldn't have as much as he was casually throwing into the fire.

Amanda forced herself to calm down and analyze the situation rationally.

Just because an ingredient was powerful didn't mean mixing many of them together would make a good potion.

If the combination wasn't carefully balanced, it would inevitably result in an explosive failure.

And then—

BOOM!

The Lv9 Forge trembled violently, emitting a heavy rumbling sound.

It exploded.

If it weren't for the Lv9 Forge's durability, this kind of uncontrolled energy surge would have shattered a lower-grade forge—and likely blown everyone in the room to pieces.

Even though Amanda had half-expected this outcome, she was still so furious that she was trembling.

Was this guy making a potion or just throwing everything into a giant stew pot?!

At first, she thought Velen was completely ignorant about alchemy.

But that didn't seem right—he had gathered so many top-tier alchemical ingredients, and even had a Supreme Forge and a Lv9 Forge.

There was no way someone with access to such resources knew nothing about alchemy.

And yet, the result of his so-called "alchemy" was this—a massive explosion from a potion that was supposed to be gentle and restorative!

At the same time, Velen himself was also shocked by the explosion.

Why did it explode?

Was this supposed to happen?

He wasn't sure. But then, he received another system notification.

"Congratulations, Host! Mission completed. Reward: 500,000 Luxury Points!"

Just as Velen was celebrating his reward, another notification appeared.

"This mission can be repeatedly completed. The system will continuously provide ingredients until Amanda either approves or disapproves of your potion."

Velen froze.

Wait… I can keep doing this?

And every time he did, he would earn another 500,000 Luxury Points?!

This was insane!

If Amanda never gave a final decision, he could farm Luxury Points indefinitely—eventually using them to make a massive breakthrough and become a Titan Rank Lv9 Awakener!

Thinking about it, Velen even considered abandoning the Alchemist Convention entirely—it made more sense to stay here and keep grinding the system for points.

Velen turned to Amanda with a serious expression.

"Amanda, this is my first time performing alchemy in front of a master like you. I was nervous, and I failed—but I'm sure I'll succeed next time!"

Amanda frowned slightly.

Velen's previous reckless actions had completely shocked her.

She still hadn't fully recovered from the absurdity of it all.

However, now that Velen was looking at her with such sincerity, she couldn't bring herself to reject him outright.

After a brief silence, she sighed and said sternly,

"Fine. I'll give you another chance. But don't you dare blow up the forge again."

Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire

Even though Velen seemed more composed, Amanda had a nagging feeling this was far from over.

Fwoosh!

As Amanda glanced at Velen again, he was already back at the forge.

The fire roared even stronger, its flames filling the room with warmth.

And then—

Velen continued throwing countless rare ingredients into the fire.

The room filled with dense mana fluctuations, but the moment the ingredients entered the forge, they were instantly burned to ashes—completely losing their medicinal value.

Amanda let out a deep sigh.

She had known from the start that expecting Velen to suddenly become competent at alchemy was wishful thinking.

Resigned, she turned away.

She couldn't bear to watch anymore.
