Alan shook his head helplessly : "You are already trying to find a way to be more efficient, isn't it ?"
Kevin scratched his head and said honestly to him : "Actually, yes I am, it will be great if I could increase my speed to craft potions, and I'm also very curious like this is completely new for me."
Alan sat down and motioned for him to sit down with him, he said : "Okay, let me teach you then ! You're really one of a kind, normally new students aren't as eager to learn as you are.
They are more eager to make new friends and to have fun than to learn."
Alan took out his cauldron and a small bottle of water from his magic bag, and he asked Kevin : "Do you have the ingredients with you to craft the Healing potion ?"
Kevin immediately took out the ingredients he had bought with uncle Douglas but he only took out enough to craft 2 potions.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Thanks to his passive Recovery skill level 2, 20min of rest was enough for him to recover 50 points of Soul force, and apparently the 'rest' only meant not having to use his Soul force because his reserve was already at 496 points.
Kevin still had to pretend that he could only use 180 Soul force points so he gave to Alan the ingredients needed to craft a potion and kept the rest for himself.
He then took out his own cauldron and a bottle of water so that he could try to craft the Healing potion with whatever technique Alan was going to teach him.
Alan nodded in agreement and began his explanation after emptying his bottle of water into his cauldron : "Before you start crafting your potion you have to separate each ingredient so as not to waste time later on."
He took out 4 empty vials and filled them each with 1/3 of goblin blood. He gave back to Kevin the 2/3 of goblin blood that he didn't use and then he placed each ingredient in the order of the potion's execution and asked him : "You've done this potions several times already, haven't you ?"
Kevin nodded and Alan continued : "Did you realize that after every ingredients introduction the need for spiritual energy is always the same quantity ?"
Kevin nodded again and said : "That's why I wanted to know if it was possible to pour spiritual energy into the potion faster to save time."
Alan smiled but didn't say anything about that, instead he asked him again : "How long do you take to craft a potion ?"
Kevin replied promptly : "20min."
Alan smile widened and he said : "Not bad at all ! Now, focus on the spiritual energy around us and how I'm going to use it, tell me when you're ready."
Kevin immediately focused on the spiritual energy around them, he had the feeling that Alan was going to reveal one of his secrets to him.
When Kevin was sure that he could feel the spiritual energy around them he said to Alan confident : "I'm ready."
Alan laughed heartily and said : "Alright, here we go then, take a good look, it's gonna be quick."
Kevin saw that Alan was concentrating spiritual energy around his left hand, it was like small milky colored balls and there were 7 in total.
The most amazing thing was that he noticed that they all seemed to be made with the same amount of spiritual energy.
Alan then deposited the first milky ball in the cauldron with his left hand, and with his right hand, he introduced just after the first vial of the goblin blood.
Immediately after he introduced another milky ball of spiritual energy and the 3 stalks of the Vitality magical herb followed.
He alternated between the introduction of the ingredients and the milky balls of spiritual energy without never stopping once.
The whole process only took him 2min, and when he was done, the potion still mingling inside his cauldron, looked like a swirl of colors slowly evolving from red to purple.
Alan said to him : "You have to wait a few minutes for the potion to stabilize, and when it becomes the color you want, you can put it in a hermetic bottle and get ready for another potion.
This method not only help you to craft potions faster, it also saves some of your Soul force.
Once you have concentrated all the spiritual energy you need, you no longer need to summon your Soul force, do you understand ?"
Yes, Kevin understood very well what he was teaching him, obviously if he had to summon only once his Soul force it could only be better that to have to summon it 7 times.
He couldn't believe it, this technique was incredible, it would save him time and Soul force, he exclaimed : "Wow, it was completely amazing, and yes I understood everything you did, let me try to do it now."
Alan took out of his magic bag 4 empty vials for Kevin and he said : "You will have to think about buying some because you are going to need many more of those."
Kevin thanked him and he prepared his ingredients the same way Alan did.
Once he had all his ingredients ready he emptied the bottle of water into his cauldron, and he began to craft his potion.
Kevin focused on the spiritual energy around him and he remembered precisely what quantity he needed between each ingredient introduction.
He did the same as Alan and he concentrated the amount he needed a first time, shaping it into a small milky ball, above his left hand, and when he had succeeded he then repeated the same process 6 more times.
Fortunately, he had put his black necklace back because it took a lot of concentration to be able to keep all his small balls of spiritual energy above his left hand.
And, he was sure he would have had a terrible headache without using it.
Once his seven small milky balls of spiritual energy were ready, he replicated the exact same technique Alan had just done.
And once he had finished putting inside his cauldron all the ingredients and his seven balls of spiritual energy, he heard the familiar sound of the System echoing in his head, and he opened it eager to see if he had succeeded in crafting his Healing potion low grade with that new technique.
[ Congratulations, you have crafted a Healing potion low grade, you have gained 10 exp points and 1 Soul force point. ]
Kevin sighed in relief and he looked at Alan who seemed completely stunned, actually he was looking at him with a expression that was saying 'What the hell'.
Kevin was really wondering why, after all, he had succeeded to craft his potion.. So, he just waited that Alan was ready to explain to him if he did something wrong.
