Skill-Creation System - Chapter 36

Alex woke up and remove his spell from Lucas and Freya. Their eyes suddenly widened as they experienced death over and over. They panted hard and soon returned to their senses. In the Magic Training simulation that he created, a person could feel. When they died, they would respawn. It was a lot like a game.

Alex looked at them and noticed that the aura around them changed. It was as he expected. The deaths they felt in the simulation felt real so they developed some kind of fearlessness and confidence. Their aura felt much sharper and intimidating. Even if it wasn’t a big increase, a huge amount of progress couldn’t have been expected to happen overnight.

Lucas looked around and saw Alex who was sitting on the couch. He almost jumped as he didn’t feel Alex’s presence. The simulation not only allowed them to practice their skills, it allowed them to increase their perception and senses. Their master was at such a close distance but Lucas and his sister couldn’t feel his presence. They cupped their hands and bowed.

“Good Morning, Master!” They both said in unison. Alex just chuckled and told them to prepare themselves.

Alex wanted to start up a business as he couldn’t be searching the entire world for his parents. Although he could create a skill to do so, the world would sense it and reject him. He had been careful to go past this world’s limit. If Alex wanted to break through this limit and stay, he would have to get recognition from the Will of the World but he didn’t know how to find it. According to Celestine, there was a shrine where the Will of the World resided. So he planned to start up a business to create an information network.

He had long decided to make a shop that sold Weapons, Tools, Pills, Formations and other things that cultivators used often. He would also sell herbs but he didn’t have much time to collect them all so he put that once on hold. Alex was already an Official Blacksmith, non-official Formation Master but he wasn’t an Alchemist.

People who were Alchemist received much more fame than Blackmiths as the pills they made were high in demand. To increase their cultivation, many influential people used a lot of money to buy pills from them. In addition, if their family successfully hired one, their economic, military and political power would be greatly boosted.

Alex returned to his room and cleaned up. He was thinking about how to learn alchemy. He would probably go steal…cough…borrow books from the Alchemy Guild. He would save all the books in his Personal Library. He would probably also have to go to the library and create a Blacksmithing and Alchemy Techniques.

Alex left the hotel after giving some money to Lucas from him and his sister to get some food. He set off for the library while enjoying the morning atmosphere.

Once he arrived, he payed the fee once more and walked to the to the books he wanted. He then enveloped all of them with his soul power and absorbed the information. He sent all of those books into his library.

Bingo!

Alex’s eyes lit up as he gained huge amounts of information on both Alchemy and Blacksmithing.

These Techniques didn’t have a single flaw. Both professions had common aspects. One of them was the purity of the metal or the herb. The more pure it was, the higher the effectiveness and the less side-effects.

Since Alex was already at the library, he went to the books on formations and absorbed them into his library.

[‘Flawless True Path of Formation Setting’ has been created]

This new skill allowed him to make formations without carving. He could do it with his fingers if he wanted to. If he practiced, He could probably make formations with his mind. He wanted to explore other functions but he left it for later.

Alex, who had what he needed, left the library and searched for the Alchemy Guild in this town. He used hi system map which was extremely helpful. Not wanting to waste any time, he went to an alley and used his ‘Stealth’ Skill. He then followed by jumping and keeping himself suspended in the air. He looked at the direction of the Guild and used ‘Close-Range teleportation’.

In a couple of seconds, Alex already arrived at the guild. He spread his Soul Power to sense the entire building and found Guild’s library. Saving and Absorbing the knowledge, he now had all the information on herbs and formulas. He even knew the history of Alchemy from this world at least.

He was now one step away from being a non-official Alchemist. Suddenly, a delicious aroma caught Alex’s attention. After buying some pastries, Alex walked back to the hotel with a smile.
