BXBX NOVEL Chapter 513 Special Magic Bracelets
"Alchemy is fusing stuff to get new items!"
"I think its about mixing magic with materials to extract their powers…"
"The combination of elements in nature!"
"How to get rich quickly."
"Good! Good! All of you have good answers." Said Ataraxia, suddenly fixing her eyes into me. "But what could our Summoner say about it? I am honestly impressed you\'ve chosen my class, dear!"
"Well… Technically, Alchemy is the convergence between the elemental properties of materials which manipulates the laws of the world and creates a phenomenon in which each element converges and reconstruct themselves into something new yet of the same value as the materials used to create it. Or something like that. It\'s rather simple."
Everyone suddenly looked at me with mouths wide open as I answered the question swiftly.
"Hm? What?" I asked while raising an eyebrow. "Am I wrong?"
Ataraxia quickly nodded.
"N-No! Of course you\'re right… That was amazing, I never thought a student would answer the question in such a way…" She said. "Everyone, we might have a genius with us! Oh right, they told me you had a second talent, right?"
"Wait, you\' have a second talent?!" Elfriedden asked in shock this time.
"Yeah, it is Synthesist." I said.
"Synthesist?!" Ataraxia was surprised. "T-That\'s an amazing talent!"
"Perhaps." I said slightly bored.
"Anyways, everyone here, even if you have no talent related with Alchemy, you\'re welcome to try. Anybody with enough hard work can learn Alchemy." Said Ataraxia. "Alchemists are always useful in battlefields as well, we can create all sorts of consumable magic items, or even amazing magic accessories, rings, bracelets, necklaces, and even imbue weapons with elements, create bombs, potions, everything! An Alchemy is always useful anywhere due to our great usefulness. However, a good Alchemist is someone that prepares for anything as well! So, for now, children, we\'ll be learning the basics of Alchemy."
Like that, Ataraxia began to explain how Alchemy is reproduced. She taught everyone here how to do Alchemy through the Synthesis, Brewing, and Mixing Skills. Once she was over, she began distributing a bracelet to everyone.
"This is a special Bracelet I\'ve made myself named Alchemy Bracelets! It is a special item imbued with the power of Synthesis. With this, you can use it even if you don\'t possess the Skill! If you have the will to learn it and the passion, you can learn the Skill after using this bracelet a lot!" Said Ataraxia.
"Incredible, so there\'s such a way to learn Skills!" I was impressed by the bracelet. Of course, it was utterly useless for me, but others such as Alberta and Elfriedden that lacked the Synthesis Skill but had the Alchemy Skill, it was a rather useful item.
"Can we keep these?" I wondered.
"Yes! I am gifting them to you, make sure to keep them safe, okay? Don\'t you dare sell them, I won\'t give you a new one if you do that or lose it, okay?" She asked nicely. "Also, they\'re wearer locked, so once you wear it, it is yours. Anybody else than me that tries to wear them will make the item explode… Hehe, be careful~!"
Ataraxia had rather evil ways of doing things, but I suppose I can respect that. Being overly cautious is never a bad thing.
"Nice…" I said with a smile. "This is the first time I hear of an item that can help people learn a certain Skill. It is often an item with an ability already attached to it. How does this works?"
"Ufufu~ You\'re already interested?" Ataraxia giggled, approaching to me with a seductive smile. "Don\'t be so eager little boy, I will go into details at its due time~!" She walked away after winking at me.
Well, if she doesn\'t want to teach me then I\'ll figure it out anyways. But its probably something to do with imbuing Runes into items, something I had not done before. Luckily, Alberta here is perfect for that job later.
"Ooh, this bracelet is great…" Alberta was happy with it.
"Indeed. With this learning Synthesis will be very easy." Elfriedden agreed.
"I don\'t really need it but I\'ll equip it anyways." Said Eric.
I decided to save mine for later, perhaps I could gift it to Erika so she can learn Synthesis or someone else too. Perhaps even Eleanora, or Saphira… I\'ll see about that later. I could even use it as a material to make a new item.
Nonetheless, I already had an amazing ring that Eric gifted to me.

[Description]
An impressive Ring made by an aspiring Alchemist\'s dreams. It was made specifically for the enhancement of an alchemist\'s abilities and to facilitate their lives. Nonetheless, it provides an incredible enhancement to stats. However, all of such effects can only be activated if the wielder has an Alchemy-related Skill. If worn by anybody else, the ring will lose its powers.
The Lesser Elixir Ring!
It is the perfect Ring to do Alchemy with.
And our first Alchemy test already began, as Ataraxia, rather ruthlessly, told us to do something right away.
"Alright children, you should all get together in groups of… four!" She said, quickly calculating how many we were. "Use the Cauldrons and make ten Lesser Health Potions with the ingredients I\'ve placed in your desks beforehand. You\'ll have the rest of the hour to do so, so do your best!"
Only an hour to make ten potions… it was certainly an incredible challenge for those that had very little knowledge about Alchemy, but for me, it was a matter of seconds.
