Chapter 993: Evolved Alchemy
My surroundings became those of an incredibly ancient library, mostly all made of stone. The books themselves were enormous, their pages made of rough and hard tree bark, inscribed into them using black ink, there were countless runes.
"What is this place? Such an archaic Library existed?" I wondered, looking around.
I noticed Eleanora wasn\'t here, only I was invited to this strange illusion, realm, or something else entirely. I stopped looking at the book I was grabbing, which was at least twenty meters big, gigantic.
And then I looked at the distance and my surroundings yet again. The ceiling resembled that of a cave, but it was opened up. Perhaps some sort of valley inside a mountain, or something.
But that wasn\'t the surprising part, as giant shadows loomed above me.
I looked up again, noticing gigantic, scaled figures descending.
They were all dragons!
BAAAM!
Their enormous bodies made the ground tremble as they landed on the floor. There were around five of them, each one roughly fifty meters of height. They had all different scale colors.
I honestly couldn\'t recognize any of them, except one, a dragon with golden horns, yellow eyes, and silvery-white scales. He looked much younger than how I remember him, but it was definitely him.
Bestellen.
He seemed younger and more hopeful as well, with a certain curiosity and innocence inside of his eyes.
"So this is the Legendary Library! I can\'t believe I am seeing it with my very two eyes!" He said happily. "Thank you so much for inviting me here, elders!"
"Well, you passed the test, Bestellen, so you\'re worthy of visiting the Library." A red scaled dragon spoke. "This is a place where we store all our knowledge. This world is young, you see. Younger than you imagine. Since its birth that there have been countless powers and magics yet to be discovered.
In here not only we store information through our large books, but we also discover new magic and improve the general knowledge of what magic truly is!"
"I see, I see!" Bestellen nodded very energetically. He was indeed very young here.
"As you already know, we dragons are blessed with Dragon Tongue, an Innate Ability to conjure magic without the requirement for Runic Arrangements, giving us the ability to freely manipulate the elements and discover their properties." A blue scaled dragoness said.
"Unlike the Titans blessed with Weapon Mastery, or the Spirits blessed with Spirit Magic, we Dragons were destined to learn, master, and discover all the magic in the world."
"Come and join as we explore magic, young Bestellen. How about you start with general knowledge first? There\'s also the new subject, Alchemy and Forging Magic. And also one we have yet to fully master and it is within a conceptual stage, Creation Magic."
"T-Thank you! I will learn and then help you discover more, elders!" Bestellen was full of hope and innocence.
I wonder what happened to him for him to become such a ruthless fighter later on…
The vision continued showing Bestellen reading every book, the knowledge he acquired flowed inside the grimoire, constantly filling its pages.
The vision ended abruptly as Bestellen glanced at the night sky\'s moon.
"Lifeforce Magic… The power to use one\'s Lifeforce to grow even stronger." He wondered. "Who would ever use such a dangerous power?"
Hah, how ironic.
FLASH!
When the illusion was over, the Grimoire stayed at my side, floating, its appearance mimicking the new Divine Skill that had just evolved.
Formerly the Apprentice Alchemist Recipe Book, it now had changed completely.
Its pages themselves showed me the information of the changes.
[The [Apprentice Alchemist Recipe Book: Lv10] Skill has successfully absorbed the Scroll\'s Powers and Evolved into the Divine Skill: [Divine Silver Dragon Alchemist Grimoire: Lv1]!]

A Skill born from the evolution of the [Apprentice Alchemist Recipe Book: Lv10] after absorbing the powers of a Divine Skill Scroll.
A Skill that materializes into a Divine Grimoire of Ancient Times, containing the knowledge and recipes of the Ancient Dragon Library, Ancient Magic, Alchemy, and Forging combine together in this Grimoire, becoming one.
Using this Grimoire not only can you create items based off the recipes, but through Instant Creation, you don\'t even need to prepare them, the Grimoire creating everything as long as you supply the materials and Mana required.
