Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 97 - Making Potions - Part 2

"Boom!"

An explosion after another occurred, making him speechless. The water materials here had strange nature, as they tend to store energy, then when he used the catalyst, the energy stored would be released.

No matter when he used the catalyst, the explosion always occurred when he started adding it. he stopped making anymore, as he felt he was missing something here.

"I need to process the water materials first, in a way to stimulate the energy stored inside, to make it not store the energy," he muttered, thinking of a solution.

After an hour of thinking about this problem, he found a solution to this, by using some of the fire based materials, the bone powder of that ancient demon, to stimulate the water elements.

When he experimented, he was pleased it worked out. Fire stimulated water, and made it release the energy to control it.

"Boom!"

Another explosion occurred, which made his face be all black, but he wasn't depressed or frustrated anymore. What he lacked now was to tune the amount of fire based materials, so it would stimulate the water materials, enough to make them release their energy, without making an explosion.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

After three failures, he reached a solution. He needed to process the water materials, two at a time, with the addition of the fire element, and the catalyst.

This weird mix made the initial recipe he was following non useful, but he still kept experimenting, and this time no explosion occurred.

"So I have to process the materials first, then add them together later on," he muttered, but when he did that using a small portion of the materials he processed, he found the energy amount inside them not quite satisfying.

So, he added more catalyst to the mix, and at this point the fluid started to shine, with some silver luster in it. that was the perfect form of the potion, and so he started to turn the rest of materials into this perfect potion, adding catalyst to the mix every now and then.

He had to prepare more catalyst to be used in the final step of making this potion. Making water based potion was really much harder than the fire potion, but finally, after many setbacks, he succeeded.

He held twenty bottles filled with this blue fluid, with silver luster to it, with some pride and anticipation. The addition of more materials made the final amount greater than the fire potion, but he didn't mind that.

He returned to sit on his throne, with face darkened from repeated explosions, and a room filled with black colors everywhere and some smoke still resided in here.

He took a deep breath and started to eat some meat, while thinking about another issue.

He had done all the steps perfectly, but he had another step in mind, where he let the potion touch that heaven treasure he had, that ice natured treasure.

He hesitated, as this might alter the whole composition, and might destroy the materials.

When he looked at the remaining materials on the tables beside his work space, and saw there were a few hours before all the mages came here for the next invasion, he decided to give it a try.

So, he started another spree of making potions, and this time he didn't experience a single explosion, making all the materials he had to yield potions.

After working continuously for three hours straight, he had now over fifty bottles of fire potion, and over a hundred bottles of water potion.

"Let's test one potion at a time," he muttered, as he took one bottle, and let it enter into his ring.

Once it entered there, it appeared just above the heavenly treasure. He first left the bottle there for a few minutes, but nothing happened. He then opened the bottle, and waited, but nothing happened.

"Ok, I will pour its content then," he muttered, as he let the content of the fire potion fall over the heavenly treasure, a sizzling sound appeared, and a huge blow of white smoke emerged. After everything subsided, he found no trace to the potion.

"So, it can't be done on fire potion," he muttered, regretting losing one bottle, "let's see what the water potion will do then."

He repeated the process, and the same result occurred. He just felt something was missing, as fire potions end result was logical, but not the water one.

An idea popped up in his mind, as he made two potions into his ring, one fire, and one water. He opened the two bottles at the same time, and poured the contents of the two at the same moment over the heavenly treasure.

Once he did that, no sizzling appeared, no smoke occurred. Miraculously, the two fluids got mixed together, shrinking inside, with some impurities being repelled out of them. The initial two full bottles ended up being not enough to fill one third of one bottle, but Arthur knew this new fluid worth it.

"So, this treasure helped in tempering the two potions, mixing them together, and eliminating the particles of no use, that's great."

He didn't stop there, as he pushed inside two bottles at a time, until he had enough to fill ten bottles.

He took out the bottles, examined the new fluid. It was faint green in color, with wisps of red and blue appearing like thunderbolts inside the fluid.

"I can feel the high energy concentration in them," he happily muttered, as he decided to use this potion for tempering his body.

As for the rest of his fire and water potions, he decided to leave them inside his ring, as he might need to reward his main mages when they returned in triumph from their expedition.

Recalling the expedition, he checked the time. it was now in the morning, where the sun was starting to shine on the world.

"They are about to come," he muttered, looking regretfully at the bottle in hand before deciding to store it. "I will find another time to take it," he muttered, trying to console himself that he would go to a place where he could find more answers about his true strength.

Just as he stored the bottle, he heard some noise from outside, indicating the arrival of his mages.. He looked at the sorry state of himself and the whole room, and shook helplessly his head, while moving outside, going out to welcome them.
