The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 307 307 - First Potion Attempt

Both of them nodded in understanding directing all their attention toward David and the instructions that he was about to utter.

"First of all, I must mention that the quality of the potions that both of you will be able to create will depend on the quality of your cores, so can you both tell me the grade of your cores?" The director asked, already knowing Aiden's.

However, he still wanted to know about the core of the beast girl as it would be really helpful for the rest of his teachings.

"Mine's Gold," Aiden replied.

"Mine is also Gold."

The director nodded not that surprised by the grade of their cores. Garestsa had been invited to join the Magic Academy, so it made sense for her to at least have this level of talent.

"Alright, great that means that you can pretty much do every single potion that exists, there might be one or two that aren't available because of your cores' grades, but that really isn't that important."

The director was sort of relieved when he learned that they both had the same grade as it made his task a lot more easier for the future.

"Alright, enough about that, I will now show you how to create the most basic potions that exist, make sure to watch attentively," David said as he made appear a cauldron out of nowhere.

In his hands, he had a single ingredient.

It seemed that he hadn't lied when saying that it was the easiest recipe that existed.

"This is called the mana potion, it is used when you are low on mana… to replenish yourself," the director explained as he started heating up the cauldron.

Aiden wasn't able to see how he had done such a thing, but he kept watching in interest.

He knew that would be the first step into becoming much greater at potion-making.

"So, as you can see, you start by heating up the cauldron. Now that this is done, you take this blue herb called Manatrum and throw it into the cauldron."

"While you are doing that, you also need to put water inside of it, so that the Manatrum gets dissolved into, just look… I'll show you," the director said as he finished heating up the cauldron, preparing himself for the next step.

He took the blue herb in his hands and threw it with a lot of caution, not wanting to miss the huge cauldron in front of him.

He then watched as the herb inside the cauldron for about a minute or two, and while he was getting an eye on it. He made a bucket of water right in front of him as he prepared himself for the final move of the potion.

A few seconds later, he dropped all the water that he had prepared into the cauldron and started mixing it using magic.

"There now, both of you come closer, this is the most important step in the making of this potion," the director said as both Aiden and Garestsa got closer wondering what he was talking about.

As both of them approached, the director continued swirling everything that was inside the cauldron without the slightest difficulty.

"Even if you can't see it right now, what I'm doing at the moment requires a lot of precision, I am mixing all the ingredients in a certain manner."

"If I were to make even the slightest mistake then this blue color that we can all see at the moment would turn black."

A few moments later, David stopped all movements as the color stayed blue even we he stopped the mixing motion.

"And… done!"

The director exclaimed quite happy with the performance that he had just shown to everyone to see.

He knew that what he had just done was extremely basic and that anyone with a little bit of knowledge, everyone could do it.

However, he didn't want his students to see him fail. It would be quite an embarrassment to be completely honest.

"It's now your guys' turn."

The director said as he looked at each of them.

Garestsa didn't seem to be too nervous since she had some previous knowledge. She had also told Aiden about it.

However, Aiden could feel himself becoming somewhat nervous as he had never done such a thing before and he didn't want to fail.

"Go to your cauldrons!" The director said as both Garestsa and Aiden quickly turned around and went to their respective working spot, or rather, potion-making spots.

"Alright, so both of you will be attempting to do the exact same thing as me. So, make sure that you get that blue color at the end, or else, it means that you have failed," David said as he tried to add some pressure on both of the participants.

Aiden hearing that made sure to use all of concentration as he looked at the cauldron, wondering how he could heat it.

He knew that he had access to fire since he had all affinities, but David hadn't done it that way, so he was trying to find the way that the director had done it as he made sure to analyze the entirety of it.

Then, as he continued and continued to search, he finally found it.

There was a button hidden on it that activated the heating.

'Alright, so now what do I need to do?' Aiden thought as he looked at all the ingredients that he had to his right.

He was currently in the process of finding the right herb which was bright blue.

'Not this one… not this one either,' Aiden thought as he continued to look at every single one of them.

'Just where is it, goddammit…'

It seemed that no matter how much he had tried going through the ingredients, he hadn't been able to find it.

That's when he heard the voice of David, adding a little something to this whole potion-making session.

"Oh, I think I forgot to mention it, but you guys have to find your own Manatrum."
