CHAPTER 25 – GROUP PROJECT (4)

July 27, 2022 — 16 Comments

“Huh.”

Baek Yu-seol’s words made Professor Maizen laugh. It was completely understandable. Previously, he might have been able to improve the performance of a potion by changing one or two ingredients, but this time was different.

How will he make a potion with the same performance even stronger in a different environment with completely different materials?

The Tyren Point Potion’s key ingredient was the Atarix spider’s shell.

Tyren Point Potion was inspired by Atarix spiders’ unique habit of removing their shells and laying eggs for their young on their own. As a result, the shell contained a tremendous amount of nutrients, and the vital supplement created based on it was Tyren Point Potion.

By the way, making a vitality supplement out of the tail of a fire mane lizard sounded too far-fetched.

Professor Maizen said, gently raising the corners of his lips.

“……That’s interesting. Can you make Tyren Point Potion with that material? Even I, who invented the potion, did not know.”

“Yeah. This is a recipe that our team members came up with.”

The members of Group 12 were taken aback by those words. Eisel in particular. Her expression could be interpreted as, ‘What do you mean, you madman?’

Clap! An alchemist from the Alchemy Castle applauded. He looked at Professor Maizen and Baek Yu-Seol with curiosity.

“Living as an alchemist, you’ll have all sorts of valuable experiences, but this one is very interesting. I really like this composition though. An alchemist should keep all possibilities open. How is it? We’re going to hold the disqualification process and continue.”

The other two alchemists nodded as well, wondering if the situation was amusing. Professor Maizen nodded, deciding that, while he didn’t like them giving Baek Yu-seol a chance, it wouldn’t change the outcome.

If Baek Yu-seol fails here, he will be humiliated twice as much.

“Good. The time limit is one hour. Complete the Tyren Point Potion in it. Oh, you can’t be confused, Baek Yoo-seol? It’s not a D-Vitality potion, but a Tiren Point Potion.”

“Of course. Unlike my professor, I have a good memory.” 

“…yes, shall we get started?”

Professor Maizen swung his wand quickly as if he didn’t want to give Baek Yu-seol time to roll his hair.

Then a number was engraved on the blackboard, and the countdown started from an hour.

At that moment, the eyes of all the students suddenly changed and they reached out toward the lab table.

…Except for Baek Yu-Seol’s group.

“Are you crazy?!”

Eisel immediately urged him in a low voice. Maliwan also scolded in a timid voice.

“Yu, Yu-seol… No matter what, I don’t think this is right. Go, even if it hurts your pride. Sometimes you have to bend…  If you say you’re going to do something impossible, uh….”

These kids worry too much. Bake Yu-Seol said with a smirk.

“Trust me and follow me. Instead, you have to do exactly as I say. Can you do it?”

“…After all, there is nothing that can be done about it.”

Eisel said this desperately because she had no intention of arguing with the clock ticking. Baek Yu-seol had had no intention of wasting time.

“The reason the shells of Atarix spiders are rich in nutrients is to lay their young. The tail of the fire mane lizard also has similar organs. It’s the blood vessel”

He pulled out a particularly thick vein from the lizard’s tail. Unlike humans, creatures that deal with mana naturally had such thick blood vessels, but most of them were treated as valuable magical materials by wizards and alchemists.

“The Alaker tribe in the southern desert used these vessels for their chief’s health. In fact, as a result, the average life expectancy was increased from five to ten years.”

“Uh, uh… Yeah, I did research on the Alaker tribe last time.”

“Hmm? Uh, yes.” 

“So I know a little bit about Alaker processing… Can I take this?”

“Okay do it.”

The boy named Maliwan was much smarter than Baek Yu-seol initially thought. After all, Maliwan was destined to become a genius inventor in the future, so he was convinced that the buds might have already stood out.

“And I’m going to dry this mistletoe using a drying method that is unique to the desert. Does anyone know how to do it?”

“It’s the small hole drying technique, right?  I learned it when I followed my father around. Since with blood vessels like this, it would be possible to dry in 5 minutes.”

“Uh… yeah, I think so.”

Kasahun was also aware of this. Baek Yu-seol just recited what was written on the glasses. ‘What is it?’

Something was suspicious. He explained the processing of other materials just in case, and finally, Eisel replied slowly.

“…that, I’ll do it.”

“Can you do it?”

“Yes. It was in a book I usually read.”

All of the information about the Tyrenpoint Potion Type B recipe was imparted one by one to the three brains.

‘This, maybe…?’

Baek Yu-seol suddenly had an idea but didn’t have time to think about it. Because he already spent more than 15 minutes processing and explaining the ingredients.

“From now on, mix them as instructed.”

He was about to begin right away when Eisel asked him one last time.

“Is this recipe… just came out of your head?”

He was appalled, but he nodded, for there was nothing else to say.

“For now,”

After that, when Eisel was speechless and did not ask any questions, Baek Yu-seol gave a light round of applause.

“Start.”

So, when Baek Yu-Seol’s 12th group started potion crafting belatedly, the eyes of the Alchemy Castle’s alchemists shone.

“Young people have a unique knowledge.”

A professional alchemist in the Alchemy Castle would know that level of basic common sense, but it was very rare for teenagers at the magic school to have such knowledge.

“Certainly… if that’s the case, um. uhm.” 

“It’s unique.”

They didn’t even pay much attention to the other group’s tenacity. Some groups even showed a performance of reprocessing materials, but they didn’t even look at it as if it wasn’t very noticeable.

“Group 3 has completed.”

“Good. Very well done.”

Thirty minutes passed, and soon 40 minutes, some outstanding groups demonstrated the already finished Tyren Point Potion. A finished product that was good enough to get 90 out of 100.

This year’s students were exceptionally outstanding.

Nonetheless, the alchemists did not even glance at the other students. It’s because there was no time for that. <T/N: Kind of reminds me of MC’s battle in a xianxia tournament arc>

“Oh, let’s see…”

With only 10 minutes remaining, all 11 other groups had finished their potions. The alchemists were still focused on Group 12.

The potions they created began to produce results gradually.

Maizen Tyren was beginning to feel uneasy at this point. This is due to the fact that the Group 12th potion was much more finished than expected.

‘What is that… where did you get that recipe?’

Given the quality of the recipe, it was fair to say that it was mediocre. Not only the drawing skills, but even the hand movement while dealing with tools was also close to that of a beginner.

However, without wasting a single second of time, all four members of the 12th group shared their respective roles and continuously accumulated results.

In addition, this situation even unexpected, even to Baek Yu-seol, who was leading the experiment.

‘What are these guys? Why are they so good?’

Even Eisel, who hardly knew the story of the original story and was close to the lead role, was ignorant. 

However, Fuleim, who was watching the scene, knew.

In the original version, those group-12 members succeeded in making a similar  Tyren Point Potion Type B without the involvement of the character Baek Yu-seol.

Of course, it was made similarly, but the outcome was a colossal failure. It could not be completed not only because of the time constraint but also because the proper formulation method could not be found.

‘By the way, how do you get that recipe?’

Fuleim recalled the original Ropan.

Eisel, who brought the incorrect material because Maizen Tyren purposefully did not announce it, was desperate and attempted to make a Tyren Point Potion with the materials she had on hand and completed a plausible level B type. 

… However, the problem, in the end, was that it was at a plausible level. Maizen Tyren was embarrassed, but eventually disqualified Eisel due to the incompleteness, and then brought Eisel’s unfinished potion to his laboratory and conducted his own research.

That completed the Tyren Point Potion Type B.

In other words, it was an invention that Professor Maizen Tyren had stolen from the invention of the future Eisel.

‘By the way, did they make it?’

Bubble bubble… Boom!

A halo burst out with a proper ductile reaction, and a small glass bottle was filled with a purple-colored liquid.

Tyren Point Potion Type B. 

Finally, it was finished.

“Oh oh…..!”

“Wait a minute, I’ll check it out immediately.”

“Huh, this guy. I’m a little behind in the analysis.”

“Okay……”

An alchemist from the Alchemy Castle stepped forward and touched the potion.  At the bottom of the hand, the soft dusty rolled around and penetrated the portion from bottom to top.

“Um, umm. well… I see. Mixing it up like this… It’s unique and creative. It’s great.”

“Hey, what do you think?”

After a while, the alchemist opened his eyes and brought another group’s finished product that was placed on the lab table next to him. It was also made with Maizen Tyren’s recipe, so it could be said that perfection was the highest on this spot.

“Certainly! It is still incomplete and there’s a tendency for over-consumption of materials, but we can fix it later. This…….”

The alchemist glanced at Maizen Tyren’s countenance and concluded.

“…better than Professor Maizen Tyren’s potion. It also works a lot better.”

Professor Maizen bit his lower lip at those words.

‘Are these gentlemen senile? What kind of nonsense!’

Isn’t his invention at best inferior to the potions the students made on the spot? It’s terribly uninteresting, and it’s a no-brainer joke.

“Give it to me!”

“Sure. You’d better check it out yourself.”

The alchemists handed over the potion to Maizen without a hitch. And, he had no choice but to put on an astonished expression.

‘what …!”

Because this potion undoubtedly contained a technique unique to Maizen Tyren, in which the technology of extracting nutrients from monsters and replacing them with human vitality was applied.

In other words, nothing could stop them from calling it a Tyren Point Potion Type B.

‘How the hell…!

Even the Tyren Point Potion was the result of years of research.  It means that it could never be completed by simply bringing any material.

Unbelievable. He couldn’t admit it.

How can he set aside the results he’d achieved through years of hard work with better results on the spot?

This was ridiculous. Professor Maizen Tyren’s eyes turned red as if they were about to burst.

“This…….”

He tried to reproach him.  He felt like he was would feel better if get angry.

However, it was not possible.

“It’s not enough for an A+, it’s not a level of creativity that students can think of.”

“Hey, this guy. When I was a kid, I made something even worse than this.”

“Tsk tsk. It’s amazing when it comes to kids these days.”

“That’s true again.”

Since the alchemists were pouring in favorable reviews, Maizen had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

There were many excuses to lower the score.

‘Disqualification because they couldn’t prepare the original ingredients properly.’

‘Disqualification for failing to create the original assignment.’

‘Simply disqualified’

As the professor in charge, there were countless ways to forcefully lower the score… But… to call all the alchemists from the Alchemy Department and do such a rude thing?

It’s never going to happen.

“Oh, this one. Shouldn’t Professor Maizen be evaluated? You made a better portion! Ha ha! Don’t be angry. I’m kidding, I’m kidding.”

“What do you say?  Professor Maizen, you taught so well! The disciple has already studied your potion and has brought you such an excellent finished product.”

Everyone knew this. The Alchemists of the Alchemists Castle also knew that Professor Maizen has, quite often, fucked up in this way whenever there was a student he didn’t like.

So, it was sarcastic.

‘Now that you’ve been hit like this, why don’t you get a hold of yourself?’

It was disgraceful, and anger rose to the tip of his chin, and his veins were engraved in his eyes but he clenched his mouth so hard that his jaw hurt and endured it.

“……Group 12, passed.”

Soon, his acceptance notice, which seemed to have been forced out, sounded.

“Ugh…” 

“Whew….”

“I did it, I did it…”

Eisel and the students slumped to their seats as if fainting. In the meantime, only Baek Yu-seol was waving his potion with a confident expression.

As if he knew this would happen.

[Professor Maizen Tyren’s Black Magic Erosion progress has increased.]
