"Saphira's a specter, she's like a ghost. She's a bit timid, but she's a nice and good girl, treat her well." I introduced Saphira to everybody.

However, after greeting everyone, she quickly hid behind me once more.

"Papa I don't like being in places with too many people…"

She seemed slightly stressed. I let her sit down on my lap to calm her down.

"Oh my, she calls you papa?!" Elizabeth freaked out.

"S-So cute!" Alberta said.

"D-Does that means I am her mama?" Erika asked.

However, Saphira looked at Erika slightly angrily.

"Nuh… You're not my mama…"

"Geh?!"

Crack!

I could even hear Erika's heart being broken in that moment…

"Mama!"

Saphira noticed Erika coming back, bringing a lot of food, especially sweets for Saphira.

"Look dear, we've got you a lot of sweets, you love them right?"

"I do! I do!"

Saphira quickly calmed down as she began eating a cheesecake while sitting over my lap.

"Oh, she calls Eleanora mama…" Said Elizabeth.

"Makes sense." Chris said.

"I-I guess?" Eric wondered. "Wait, that phantasmal power I saw you use against Elfriedden… Was it this spirit's powers? I mean Saphira's powers?"

"Yeah, I've used her abilities in that battle. She helps me become even more sneaky. One of her abilities even grants me phantasmal capabilities. It is easy to fool a temperamental person like Elfriedden with them, even when I was right in front of him." I said.

"Hehehe, Papa beat him good!" Saphira celebrated.

"Of course, Hallucination Fog was great as well." Laughed Hendrick.

"So that guy also helped…" Said Erika in surprise.

"You tricky bastard…" Elfriedden sighed.

"T-This is certainly a surprise, to think you've got two new spirits…" Said Evelyn. "And they all talk!"

"Yeah… That's obviously because I am… a Summoner, yeah." I said while nodding. Of course, I was simply lying but at this point I really didn't cared much. "Anyways, lets just eat for now and relax. We still got over half the day of things we have to do."

"R-Right!" Alberta said, eating her steak.

"Hey~ Can't you call me mama if I give you this chocolate cake?" Erika asked at Saphira.

The little Saphira's eyes were fixated into the cake.

However, Eleanora offered her one as well.

"Here dear."

"Thank you mama!"

Saphira ended completely ignoring Erika once more.

"Guh… This is going to be a hard challenge, but I cannot give up now…"

She seems to have found a new motivation. I suppose that's alright.

Ah, I want to go to a dungeon already…

Once we were all done, we quickly went to pick our next classes. I ended picking all production classes because I knew there wasn't anything these teachers could teach me regarding fighting. And in the production classes I can spend the time creating items as well, while learning unique ways that people create items here.

So I choose Alchemy, Sewing, Smithing, and Machinery Classes. Machinery was the one where the least students choose to go. In fact the production classes were the least picked, everyone just wanted to polish their fighting and magic ability, which is honestly understandable.

Today there was going to be Alchemy and Machinery Classes, so I went with everybody that picked them. For both, Eric, and Alberta, and for only Alchemy, Elfriedden joined.

Meanwhile, everyone else picked stuff around their specializations. Nobody else was really into crafting alchemy or anything related to it. Erika seemed slightly sad she was leaving my side, as she had sword classes with Hector and then Nature Magic classes with someone else.

"We can see each other after we're done." I told her to calm her down.

"Okay…! Mooch." Erika gave me a little kiss in my cheek and walked away, quickly bringing her big sword with her this time. Everyone was watching the beautiful pink haired girl holding a giant sword with surprise.

And so, we were quickly brought to the Alchemy Classroom with Eric, Alberta, and Elfriedden, a large Classroom filled with the aroma of plants and ores, the air was brimming with the delicious smell of ingredients and materials of rare quality and beyond.

There were also over ten cauldrons everywhere, and the teacher was waiting us inside already, concentrated into making something inside her own cauldron.

We walked inside in silence, as we watched her.

"One minute please~"

Suddenly, she added a large amount of bones and then, a large, red-colored spirit orb into the mix inside the Magic Cauldron.

POOOF!!!

A large amount of green smoke emerged from within the Cauldron, it seemed she was done.

"Cough… cough! Ah… It is here!"

She quickly brought out something from the cauldron.

It resembled a potion.

"Wachaaa!"

She threw the potion into the ground.

CLASH!

"W-What is this woman doing?!" Elfriedden freaked out. "Is this what alchemy is about?!"

FLUOOOSH!

From the liquid of the potion, pink smoke emerged, covering the entire classroom.

And from within the pink smoke, several letters began to gather until it said in big, and bright letters: "WELCOME TO THE ALCHEMY CLASSES, MY NEW STUDENTS!".

Even fireworks made of illusions began to explode around the letters, making everything look like a hallucination. I think a few students were having a headache already.

"Welcome everyone! I am SO glad you're here!"

The professor quickly whisked her fingers, as the pink fog disappeared.

Her appearance was finally completely revealed, a tall and beautiful elven woman, with a green jewel in the middle of her forehead and long clear green hair.

Her spirit was actually the cauldron she used, interestingly enough.

"I am Lady Ataraxia, Alchemist Extraordinary! Did you like the show I had for you? It took me an hour to prepare it!"

The students looked at one another and then simply nodded at her.

"I am so glad you liked it! Then! Let's begin with the classes everyone! First of all, let's go with a roundabout about what is Alchemy." Ataraxia began writing over the walls using a magic wand. "Can someone tell me what you think Alchemy is?"
