Master Of None

The alchemy fire spirit was burning up the fuel below it with a fury. There was nothing holding it back from doing as it wanted. What was even more amazing to Su was the fact that it had perfect control of the temperature even though it was still growing in size. Remey was stuck throwing more fuel on to the flames while the old master alchemist seemed to be nearing the completion of the base he needed for the earth affinity potions.

"We will need that ice soon, help Remey go and set it up so that we can start the next batch sooner!" The old master alchemist was not trying to be rude, he was just focused. The job was better with two people anyways so dishing out the task was more efficient.

"The ice is stored over here. It's how we keep some of the more unique materials and herbs stored for this room." Remey pulled open a door that seemed to be the portal to a tundra. There were very dense blue water elemental crystals that lined the walls which helped to make the temperature lower. The herbs and other items inside were very unique and familiar to a degree since they had seen some of these in the mountains. The ice was in large barrels in the middle of the room and had clearly been hand cut. Su had no idea where one would order this much ice but had the feeling that the water mages somehow played a part in this.

Another large cauldron was on the opposite side of the main room that the pair surrounded with ice. The moment that they had finished the old master alchemist shouted a warning. From the ceiling, a metal rune carved pipe was lowered by him using some dwarven technology. The base was funneled from the hot cauldron all the way to the freezing cold one. There was a slight sadness around the alchemy fire spirit now that it wasn't allowed to keep heating and refining something.

"You really like alchemy that much hm? I think Remey found a great partner. But you are just like her. You should relax a little too. I brought my partner to check up on you." While Remey and the old master alchemist focused on cooling the base for later use in creating the earth affinity potion, Su woke up the sleeping earth spirit.

As the earth spirit revealed itself it surprised the alchemy fire spirit which had basically been in seclusion for weeks from other elemental spirits. To say that just the earth spirit had changed would be a radical lie. Just like the earth spirit gaining more detailed features, the alchemy fire spirit had as well. The dark red flames it had were even deeper and denser. There were also slight bits of flames that came off its back as if it was wearing a cape or cloak made of flames. Su could only wonder if it would have a more solid form in this way like Zephyr did when it grew even more powerful. The constant creation and growth of alchemy fire had led to its own growth very well.

The two spirits broke their character slightly and became very talkative and energetic. Su didn't even need to interact to tell that they were having a nice time. "Hey Remey, are you going to bring the alchemy fire spirit with you on our next journey?" This was a possibility that Su was sure that Remey had not yet considered.

,m While the cooling process took a lot of focus, Remey was able to multitask while moving the ice and using her skills. "I was thinking about it. If it comes I can try and use the alchemy fire in tandem with the fire elemental knuckles. I want to see if I can make battle potions while we travel. I know that's a little dangerous but I recently read a book about an alchemist that could make battle potions in their hands using alchemy fire. I think that would boost my battle power a lot."

"You are trying to do something that dangerous!? You already have that heavy training armor on you everywhere you go around Genesis and now you are doing that? What if you hurt your hands?" Remey smirked knowing that Su would overreact like that. She was basically the mom of the group when it came to their safety and protection.

"The alchemy fire will protect me. I can use it to deflect small explosions with my punches and cause huge damage to break through defenses. Imagine my elemental first, alchemy fire, and defense breaking palm all combined in to a single combination attack? It's all about power and control. I can learn it." The last few words were serious. It wasn't a pledge to Su but a pledge to herself. Remey was doing her best to become stronger and knew she still needed to bring her alchemy and brawler sides in to balance with each other. This was an opportunity to do just that while also becoming a better attacker for the party. They needed her at her best!

"Fine, but start small. Very small." The slight glare that Su gave Remey reminded her of when Midnight had seen monsters coming after the party. It was a tough glare that said she would not allow any harm to come to them. She saw it as Su becoming a little more dragon like. The good thing was that this stare showed how serious Su's love for her family was and it made Remey a little warmer inside.

"Anyways, after this do you want to try the new tea blends we have? Someone sold some from the forest elves and I want to taste them?" This was the best way to distract Su and it worked like a charm. They even had the time before they were to meet Clara.
