Chapter 26 Attitude Change
Chapter 26 Attitude Change
"Can handling materials also improve proficiency?"
Ian was both surprised and delighted at this moment.
As he processed the materials, he could only see his proficiency in secondary hemostatic agents slowly increasing on the panel.
But how is that possible?
"No, processing materials is part of the potion-making process."
Ian suddenly understood.
Proficiency in potion making isn't just measured by the preparation process; the preliminary preparations also count.
We definitely made the right choice coming here.
It wasn't just the two apprentices who noticed that something was wrong with Ian.
The same goes for Victor.
He was so familiar with hemostatic agents that he knew exactly what effects different qualities of materials would produce.
Because of this.
During the configuration process, he discovered that there were originally some common materials, but these materials were gradually disappearing.
Undoubtedly, the relatively weaker one comes from Ian, after all, he is too familiar with Martin and the other two.
but.....
"This rate of progress?"
Victor blinked.
It seems like the quality of the material processing improves slightly every now and then.
Is it just my imagination?
The facts told him that it didn't seem so.
"Observe for a few days first."
Victor decided to wait and see.
This could simply be Ian getting used to the process, or it could just be his usual level.
"My proficiency increased by ten points in just three hours!"
Ian stared at the panel, feeling a moment of disorientation.
Normally, he can improve his proficiency by four to five points per practice session, but that requires a cost of at least 0.5 to 0.7 magic stones.
But now, simply processing potions is enough to improve.
This was incredibly kind to a poor wizard like him.
"If we could brew potions, it would be even faster."
Ian watched as Victor prepared large quantities of potions ahead. If it were him, he could probably reach mastery in two or three days.
"That's one of the Potions Club's strengths!"
Ian remarked with a sigh.
The Potions Department produces potions for the academy, so they don't need to prepare the materials themselves; they only need to mix them.
This is something that ordinary wizards cannot compare to.
Even those family wizards cannot compare, because the best potion makers in the Horton Wizarding School territory are definitely in the Potions Department.
Moreover, potion making itself is a skill that can be improved through the skill panel.
He couldn't even imagine how he could elevate every potion to the master level, not to mention the wealth that the enhanced talent would bring him.
"Therefore, I must join the Potions Department."
Ian's gaze gradually hardened.
.....
in the afternoon.
Ian shook off the dust and slowly walked out of the potions department.
Passing by the Wizard's Tower, just entering the residential area, I returned to my own house.
I happened to see a maid waiting at the door.
"Lily?"
Ian was somewhat surprised when he saw the person.
Lily is the maid Chris sent to find him last time.
"My lord, you're finally back! My master wants to see you." Maid Lily rushed over as soon as she saw Ian.
"Looking for me? What's up?"
Ian has a question.
He hadn't seen Chris since their last meeting, and he thought she had been forgotten.
"Of course it's a good thing, but I don't know the specifics." Lily shook her head.
Since it's a good thing, Ian naturally wouldn't refuse.
Following the maid, they soon arrived at Chris's house.
Knock on the door.
Chris opened the door.
Today, she wore a high-slit purple dress, revealing one side of her fair thigh, making her look exceptionally alluring.
"Little Ian, you really surprised me this time. If the family hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known you were so outstanding."
Chris smiled and pulled Ian into the house.
That is absolutely true.
The rankings in the advanced learning stage are something that every family pays attention to, especially those they have invested in.
But Ian didn't pay much attention to it because of Victor.
She would have almost forgotten if her family hadn't reminded her.
It turned out to be the case.
Ian, who was being pulled inside, finally understood the reason.
People really do need to have value to be valued!
Upon entering the reception room, Chris sat on the sofa, her purple tulle skirt sliding down her calves, exuding charm.
Ian's eyes darted around.
Chris seemed to have noticed, her eyes narrowing slightly as she casually pulled up her skirt, revealing even whiter, smoother thighs.
"What, doesn't it look good?"
"It looks good, cough cough!"
Ian's lips twitched. Who could withstand this?!
Although his instincts told him he was only thirteen years old.
But actually in this world...
Wizards are imbued with magic, so their bodies develop much faster than those of normal teenagers.
Even if that's not the case, most nobles in mortal kingdoms begin their sexual awakening at the age of thirteen.
In other words, he is actually quite capable.
"Senior Chris, stop teasing me. What do you want to see me about?"
Ian calmed himself down.
Chris seemed amused by Ian's candor and laughed, saying:
"That's right, your progress has surprised both the family and me, so we're going to increase the funding we're giving you to 8 magic stones."
Increase funding?
Ian's eyes lit up.
He would never have too few magic stones.
Whether it's preparing for the future, practicing various skills, or even practicing in the testing grounds, the demand for magic stones is enormous.
With delight, Chris handed him another copy of the contract.
All other conditions remain the same, only the Magic Stone section has changed.
Ian signed quickly.
"It's lunchtime, let's have dinner."
Chris invited.
Ian nodded.
Looking back, it seems they left immediately after signing the document.
Indeed, all progress is meaningful.
Dinner was plentiful: a perfectly seared steak, pan-fried foie gras with blueberry sauce, buttered mashed potatoes, and salad.
Normally, Ian's dinners are delivered by the college, which are just bread and such. They're okay, but they're a far cry from this meal.
It seems that in every aspect, there is a huge gap between second-class wizard apprentices and first-class apprentices.
After dinner.
Chris saw Ian off.
"Once you join the Potions Department, you can stay for the night."
Chris's eyes, like jewels, sparkled with a captivating light as she chuckled and joked.
"Definitely, definitely."
Ian thought to himself.
Of course, I'm not talking about staying overnight, but about entering the Potions Department.
.......
Leave Maple Leaf Avenue.
Ian went home to rest.
The next morning, before heading to the Potions Department, Ian went to the library first.
Seeing that Lord Mickey was sleeping with his eyes half-closed, Ian quickly went inside.
I quickly received this month's reward.
There are 23 magic stones in total.
There was no witchcraft involved, because it was abolished after three months and replaced by the use of the testing grounds.
Ten days of usage rights, with the first place winner receiving three additional practice sessions.
When he left, Lord Mickey still had his eyes closed, which made Ian somewhat disappointed.
Until he left.
Mickey then opened his eyes suspiciously.
"Feels like you're just starting out?"
He sensed the aura of Wind Blade Technique from Ian, but it was very weak, indicating that Ian had only just begun to learn it.
This was completely different from the extraordinary genius he had imagined.
Mickey wondered, completely baffled.
"Never mind, let's continue to observe."
Mickey closed his eyes and continued to rest.
