79 Quenching Fire Pill 1 (1/2)
After a week, he then prepared the ingredients used in Quenching Fire Pill. Of course, he asked his teacher since the one who gathered them all was his teacher. He only has the last ingredient for the pill.
”Teacher” He went to the dean's office to ask them.
”What is it? do you want to make the pill now?”
Alex nodded, Then the dean pointed out to a box ”The ingredients were in there”
Alex's eyes widened, His teacher seems expecting he come and ask for them. ”Thank you Teacher”
As he said that, he grabbed the ingredients and went toward the courtyard. The dean was confused by this. After all, Alex usually used his workshop to make pills. But this time Alex went toward his courtyard.
”This cauldron...” The dean was astonished after noticing Alex's new cauldron. The cauldron was red in color, with a blazing aura surrounding it and there is a dragon pattern on its body.
”Teacher...this cauldron is...” Alex forget about this. Will his teacher suspect this new cauldron of his? After all, usually he was the one who made the cauldron for Alex and his use.
”This cauldron is very good” The dean finished his words and nodded.
Alex becomes awkward, as he prepared himself to told him, he was stopped. ”Teacher, this cauldron...”
The dean stopped him, ”It's alright, you don't need to explain. I only need to know that this cauldron belonged to you, MY STUDENT. That's all”
”Teacher...” Alex was moved. The dean has complete trust in Alex.
”Let's continue” The dean said.
Alex nodded, he brought all the ingredients together. There are a total of 8 ingredients including his Fire Miletonia Herb. Alex closed his eyes and focused his mind on this moment.
A pure red-colored flame appeared surrounding his body. The flame gushing out from his body continuously and brighten up the courtyard. This is a new technique that he learned from the Intermediate Alchemy Technique.
Alex slowly opened his eyes. His expression was serious as he eyed the rising red flame. Due to the quality of his new cauldron, Flaming Dragon Cauldron. It seems that his flame was enchanted by the cauldron and start rising. Though Alex was surprised by this, he can't be bothered by this at this moment. This is the power of the Super Rank item from the system. He started warming up the cauldron, this initial step required only for a few seconds. This was caused by the power of the Flaming Dragon Cauldron, as soon as Alex's flame make a contact with the cauldron, the cauldron enhanced Alex's flame.
Seeing the Cauldron warmed enough. Alex waved his hand at the few medicinal ingredients on the ground in front of him. Alex used his mana to grabbed the ingredients. Immediately, the red-colored 'Fire Miletonia Herb' slowly flew up and was finally thrown into the medicinal cauldron. The moment the 'Fire Miletonia Herb' entered the medicinal cauldron, the dense red-colored flame, and the medicinal cauldron swallow it like a hungry wolf...no, a hungry dragon. After all, the name of the medicinal cauldron is Flaming Dragon Cauldron.
Now, he saw the dragon pattern facing the top of the cauldron. It was like a dragon that swallowing the medicinal cauldron. Coupled with the fire enhancement of this medicinal cauldron. Maybe that's why this medicinal cauldron named with Flaming Dragon Cauldron. After the 'Fire Miletonia Herb' got inside of the cauldron. In an instant, the herb began to swiftly wither.
The dean's eyes stared intently at the process. This was a new process for him. He also never saw Alex did this before. His thinking was true after all these techniques that Alex used now were from the Intermediate Alchemy Technique. He stared intently at the interior of the medicinal cauldron. Although the flame within the cauldron was blazing, with his power he was able to sense that the temperature of the flame had been controlled fully by Alex.
Therefore, this tyrannical flame may have appeared like a blazing dragon that engulfing everything with its blazing flame, but it didn't incinerate the 'Fire Miletonia Herb' until it turned into ashes. Instead, the Fire Miletonia Herb slowly turned into red colored liquid droplets.
”This...” The dean was very astonished until he can't even speak. He continued to quietly watch Alex. He usually completely burned the medicinal ingredients when he was refining medicinal ingredients. This could not be attributed to the ferocity of the flame. it could only be said that his degree of control of the flame had yet to truly reach the pinnacle. But he was confused, he practiced his control of flame for a few decades. But was it really surpassed by Alex with only a year of training? Is this really not contributed to the ferocity of the flame but its control? What he didn't know was Alex completely trained in a different way of control from him. The Alchemy guide about flame control was a totally different way.
The alchemy guide from the system was very easy to train. The alchemy guide can be described as a teacher that teaching with an 'easy to understand' way. While the dean practicing the way of '1+1=3'. It's not even correct, that's why the progress was so-so and Alex can beat him for only a year of practice. Though the flame was also a factor, the most important factor was flame control. Alex's way was a straight line and the dean's way was straight, curve, turn, slope, etc but it's not definitely lead you to the finish.
