Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

Chapter 1427: The Arts Of Creation

chapter 1427: the arts of creation



it had been a long day for ruby, and after everything that happened, the only thing she wanted to do today was rest... but that, however, didn't seem to be that much of a possibility. felicia, her new master, wanted to at the very least introduce her to the basics of alchemy.

and as the strongest alchemist in the world, felicia loved talking about alchemy more than herself, or anything else in particular. poor ruby could only stand there and nod as she heard the dwelf continue her speech without end.

"and so, alchemy was never truly invented or created! it is fake information! it could be considered to be a basic element of nature! the power to combine elements together and create something new is a natural process that happens every day, every second, through every part of the world, even inside of our bodies. did you know, ruby? it could be said that our own bodies go through processes similar to alchemy! synthetizing nutrients, assimilating them, constantly exchanging gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide to keep ourselves alive. our brains themselves, did you know? are made of thousands of neurons, brain cells, combined together. they create tiny electric shocks inside of your head that constantly connect, the spark of consciousness is born from..."

at this point, ruby could only hear one thing.

"blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! blah! blah blah! blah!"

"ah, yes... i see..."

she could only nod in silence, her face slowly becoming more and more tired, the workshop was rather beautiful though, with tons of tools and many magical artifacts she had never seen before.

she wanted to see them all, but with her master constantly talking and her speech ending up always going to a completely different thing than she started, this would last freaking forever.

"oh my goodness, she's really a bit crazy..."

ruby couldn't just stay here just listening to felicia forever, she wanted to learn a bit at the very least, more than just theory, but also get "her hands dirty" and get into some action.

"okay so i get it, master, no need to go into too many details," felicia sighed. "i... uh, you're really talented at going off-topic don't you?"

"hahah! maybe? well, whatever the case, you'll learn on your own! so don't worry, really," said felicia. "now, now, pay attention ruby. look at this book. this is a beginner's alchemy grimoire. it contains five basic alchemy spells for you to learn and conjure. take it, this is my first gift as your master."

"ooh!" ruby grabbed the large book, her eyes sparkling. "t-thank you so much! i'll make sure to repay this in the near future!"

"haha, aren't you cute?" giggled felicia. "don't worry, i don't particularly need any payment. seeing you happy and learning is enough payment actually!"

felicia tried to pat ruby's head, but ruby was slightly taller than her, making this difficult, the dwelf had to stand on her toes to achieve this, making it even cuter.

"thanks..." ruby felt a bit embarrassed. "um, master, so you're a dwelf then? now that i see you from up close, you indeed have many elven traits but also dwarven height... though your face is definitely elven, there's also some dwarven traits in them."

"dwelf! now that's a name i haven't heard in a while," nodded felicia. "indeed, that's the name that my rare kind receive. half dwarf, half elf. we are rarer than water in the desert. it is quite something that usually between dwarves and elves, they either can't never conceive, or they give birth to humans, elves, or dwarves, strange, right?"

"a-ah, yes..." ruby nodded. "i never thought about it... elf and dwarves can create humans?"

"why yes!" nodded felicia. "this further proves that mostly all tribes created by the gods descend from a primordial human tribe, which, i've speculated and theorized, might also be the race that the gods are! technically, elves, dwarves, and anima, based on their genetic code, trace their ancestry to humans."

"e-even when they're so different?!" asked ruby, she couldn't believe.

"indeed, and i am not trying to sound racist or being a human supremacist here..." said felicia. "i am well aware that it has been hundreds of thousands of years since our conception. so every tribe is unique and has their own identity. it's just a little interesting thing i found

out."

"uh-huh, anyways, can we do alchemy now?"

"ah, sure!"nôv(el)b\\jnn
