Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 1620 Making Soul Elixirs!

?-----

There was still almost a month left, so I didn't have that much of a hurry, I decided to spend the next four days researching with my friends and family about how to make a Soul Elixir. Benladann, Miranda, and my children seemed to want to help, and thanks to their aid and their developing abilities for crafting, appraisal, and alchemy, we were able to get a lot of progress through just four days.

Kate's [Matter Manipulation] ended becoming increasingly more useful as she used it to combine and transform materials. Sometimes materials would simply not be compatible, but with her help, she could twist the very inner workings of a material and make it compatible, or slightly compatible.

The primary Materials I used to be all Soul Treasures not completely fitting for Soul Gear, such as Herbs and Liquids. I further added extracted Soul Ether from Divine Monster Souls, which I farmed out of my own Divine Realm and the outside world, the Continent of Muspelheim had plenty of such beasts everywhere.

I would have never been able to easily refine Soul Aether out of Souls like now, it was all thanks to the abilities I've refined until now. Nᴇw chapters are publɪshed on Novᴇ(l)ꜰɪre .ɴᴇt

And lastly, well, it was just a thing of trial and error. Benladann, Miranda, and Benladra learned a lot of Alchemy and acquired the Divine Alchemy Arts Divine Ability after they became qualified and "purchased" it using Divine Power.

These last days have been rather relaxing and at the same time full of work, but I wouldn't have had it any other way. Spending days like these with my family is all I need to fill myself with all the motivation I need to move on.

I could tell everyone was working hard together, and it was something that I couldn't help but appreciate and love.

And now, we were about to finally reach a breakthrough!

"Okay this is our thirtieth attempt…" Sighed Miranda. "I never thought a potion that could enhance Soul Aether would be so hard to make! I am fairly sure we made Soul Potions before, right? Or something."

"Yeah, but those only worked up to a certain Rank, probably C." I said. "We are trying to make one that could at least boost a Soul up to S+++ Rank, so it's obviously very hard, even with the quality materials."

"You did get some potion boosting elixirs, right honey?" Benladann wondered. "What happened with those?"

"…I drank them." I sighed. "Though I did register their components, and that's what we've been trying to replicate. Alright, let's see… Kate, your turn."

The materials had already been dissolved into three different types of liquid, one purple, another completely black, and the other of a neon yellow color. Both were all incompatible with one another but contained all the necessary ingredients.

Why were they incompatible? Their elemental affinities would conflict with each other and make the entire formula explode. Naturally, we should find an alternative, right? Well, that's not necessary with Kate here.

"Okay papa!" Kate nodded adorably, pointing her little hands at the three liquids sitting inside of three different cauldrons. "[Matter Manipulation Arts]: [Elemental Affinity Change]"

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

All three liquids glowed brightly, changing and transforming their elemental affinities and even their compositions to an extent, but keeping everything that we needed out of them.

"Now… [Divine Synthesis]"

FLAAASH!

Another flash of bright light was unleashed, as I combined all the liquids together. This time, for the first time, they didn't turn into something completely different.

No, they became an iridescent golden liquid, resembling something very similar to honey. It swirled together and filled a golden colored cauldron I had summoned in front of me.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have successfully synthetized the [Divine Soul Aether Elixir (SSS Grade)]!]

[There is enough Elixir for approximately 100 bottles!]

"W-We did it!"

"WOOOOHHH!"

I raised my arms as everyone else went euphoric, screaming in celebration. Although we've had fun so far, I would be lying if I said that we had not grown frustrated with the whole thing.

But this was amazing and fantastic, we were finally capable of making it.

And it was SSS Grade too?!

"It is also SSS Grade, no less!" I laughed. "With this we can help everyone's souls get stronger. Maybe even mine?! We need to quickly make more asap, Kate, everyone!"

"Yeah, let's use all the ingredients you got!" Miranda nodded.

"We can rest later anyways." Benladann nodded.

"Yeah, yeah!" Benladra agreed.

"Okay." Kate nodded.

Like that, we spent the next two hours producing more and more of these Elixirs, using all available materials, until we ended with over two thousand bottles. With this, we were finally set! The first one that was going to taste them was Kate, of course.

"Go on, Kate, you earned it." I smiled, giving her the big bottle full of honey-like liquid.

"O-Okay! I'm going to give it a taste test!" She nodded adorably, her bright silver eyes shining brightly with enthusiasm.

She opened her little mouth and drank the whole bottle in a single chug. Wow, she was good at drinking. I can already imagine her as an adult being really good at drinking, like her father I suppose.

"Gulp, gulp…" She drank it all. "Hmm! So sweet!" She licked her little and cute lips. "Woah- Uwaah!"

FLAAASH!

And her soul immediately reacted. A wave of silver and blue light emerged from her body; it was her soul. It surged rapidly like an aura permeating her, only to quickly retract back. Because Kate's body was mostly Spiritual, it was easy for her soul to emerge from her body like this.

"Woah… My Soul Aether, it increased a lot!" She said. "it is A++ Rank now!"

"Amazing! Well done!" I laughed.

"Yeah, well done dear." Her mother appeared by her side.

"Alright everyone, drink as many as you can first. Let's see how far the Elixirs can boost your souls." I said. "Here, Kate, drink another. Go ahead."

"Thank you papa!" She said happily.

Everyone started drinking the Elixirs, praising its strangely sweet flavor. I also decided to drink a few and see if they had any effect on me.

And they did.
