Alchemist Wizard

"Congratulations on your victory, Lord Roy. The Blood Mane Tribe will surely not dare to harass us again."

Roy handed over the task of handling the aftermath to Andov and others, while he returned to the city first.

The City Lord of Skatu hurried to greet him, speaking with flattery, "I have prepared a banquet in the city to celebrate the Wizard's triumph."

Other nobles and soldiers in the city also wore joyful expressions, exclaiming, "Those barbarians will surely not dare to invade again!"

"The Wizard is indeed mighty. We knew that with your arrival, we would be saved!"

"You are truly the savior of our Skatu City!"

Roy replied, "That won't be necessary. I still have some matters to attend to."

"My apologies for the presumption, Lord Roy. Please proceed as you see fit."

These kingdom nobles seemed to know well how to interact with Wizards, not finding it strange even when rejected.

...

Upon returning to his residence, Roy was surprised to find that the female centaur Mnites, with her glossy, jade-like skin, had come to visit.

Her face was flushed with an inexplicable excitement, "Lord Roy, you are truly magnificent!"

Several maids stood beside her, their legs tightly pressed together, showing both awe and reverence.

They might have heard about the recent events or perhaps observed them from the high tower.

Roy asked, "Is there something you need?"

"Last night, I may have been too abrupt, causing you displeasure.

Today, I came specifically to apologize.

Your residence might still lack some reliable and attentive maids. I have brought those who serve me personally, hoping you will accept them."

Mnites spoke with flattery, trying to please.

"That won't be necessary," Roy frowned.

Mnites continued, "Then, would you still be interested in exploring art? I presume to ask the Wizard for a painting or sculpture as a memento."

Roy: "..."

He had to admit, this female centaur was quite flexible. Having failed to seduce him yesterday, she now followed his lead and talked about art.

Speaking of which, I'm not sleepy anymore.

However, the teacher's Magic Pet is still here, equivalent to the teacher's presence, so it's clearly not the right time.

Thus, he casually dismissed her with a few words.

...

"What's the deal with this female centaur?"

After Mnites left, Flosf, as expected, inquired.

Roy reluctantly recounted the events of the previous night, swearing on his honor that he had not slept with her.

"You probably misunderstood my rules. I have never forbidden Wizards or apprentices under me from enjoying life.

As long as they know their priorities and don't neglect their duties, it's fine."

After hearing Roy's explanation, Flosf chuckled indifferently.

You've misunderstood my meaning too.

I thought, having been here for so long, you might have had an affair with this fickle City Lord Madam!

Roy secretly grumbled in his heart.

Being new here, he hadn't yet figured out the situation and didn't know if she had any relations with the teacher or other Wizards.

Naturally, he wouldn't let his lower head rule his upper head so easily.

Flosf said, "Actually, these natives have their own schemes. Her eagerness to please you is merely to leave behind the Wizard's Bloodline after a dalliance."

Roy was surprised, "Humans and centaurs... aren't there reproductive barriers?"

Not to mention centaurs, even among humans, the radiation contamination from the Source of Magic could affect reproduction.

"Extraordinary Power is not so inconvenient. If reproductive barriers couldn't be broken, what would Bloodline Wizards research 'Bloodline Art' for?" Flosf said indifferently.

"Centaurs may not understand the principles, but they have some experience, possibly eyeing your bloodline."

"So that's it!" Roy marveled.

By the way, "centaurs" and "horse-men" are entirely different races.

Could it be that they originated this way too?

What exactly did those mythical creatures of ancient times do!

"Neither I nor the Alliance really care whether you leave your bloodline here.

In fact, it's encouraged.

Because it can increase the number of slaves and even improve the bloodline!

Feel free to enjoy the females here and leave descendants at will.

However, you must not develop any emotional attachments, nor pass down knowledge of Wizardry or treasures!"

Flosf warned meaningfully.

"Because these are slaves, lowly breeds, remember that."

Roy was silent for a moment, then nodded.

...

Next, Roy went inside and continued to process the Centaur Blood Essence under his teacher's guidance.

These processes included but were not limited to purification, refinement, and methods similar to cloning.

With the [Proficient] talent, Roy handled many operations with ease, greatly exceeding Flosf's expectations.

This earned him much praise.

Roy felt that Bloodline Factors were similar to the concept of genes.

However, the heroic bloodline possessed peculiar attributes akin to Law Remnants, making it difficult to replicate solely by focusing on Bloodline Factors.

The issue of bloodline dilution is a critical lifeline for the majority of sorcerer families.

This is obviously not something a mere first-level Wizard can solve, not even a third-level Wizard like Flosf.

He could only tell Roy, "It might be related to something at the soul level...

Sometimes we have to rely on luck to cultivate one or two cases!"

Roy thought to himself, "Why does it feel like my Inherent Essence?"

He suddenly realized that this might also be considered a kind of talent.

Not an "Alchemy" talent, but a "Bloodline" talent!

"I just wonder if one day, it will be possible to break the limitations of the Alchemy category and obtain other talent traits.

But this seems to involve the nature of the soul.

If we want to break this rule, perhaps we need to research 'Talent Transmutation' to an extremely advanced level?

Even 'Soul Transmutation'..."

Roy thought of this again.

Wait!

If the 'Original Transmutation Array' is seen as a board, those starlights are gems embedded on it... the Philosopher's Stone...

Using other bodies and bloodline powers to simulate it, perhaps we can repeat the previous promotion to a formal Wizard, conducting 'Bloodline Transmutation'?

[Equivalent Exchange] and 'Transmutation Circle' truly have infinite possibilities!

...

After personally instructing Roy on the methods of extracting and processing blood essence and the soul, Flosf's Magic Pet prepared to leave.

Roy was not the only apprentice and subordinate under his command, and it was impossible for him to devote all his attention to Roy alone.

However, before he left, he told Roy one thing.

"You're new here and don't have much of a foundation yet.

I plan to give you another gift as a token of welcome, which will also serve as a foundation for your development."
