MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Making use of a few Water-based and Fire-based spells to remove most of the impurities covering his body, Valyr went ahead and headed to the bathroom connected to Mystia's room to wash off the remaining impurities.

With the impurities surprisingly being stubborn during the cleaning process, it took the young man the better half of an hour to finally remove all of the impurities on his body, giving Mystia a slightly apologetic smile the moment he returned.

"Sorry it took a while."

"It's fine," said Mystia with a slight chuckle. "Thanks to you, the bathroom I had the others install in the past finally saw some use."

"In any case, how do you feel?" asked the woman after that, prompting Valyr to close his eyes for a bit as he took the time to familiarize himself with his newfound strength.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Sending out a few punches and kicks to get a rough idea of his current body strength, the young man soon came to the conclusion that his strikes were around 20 to 30% stronger than before.

After that, he went ahead and cast a couple of basic spells, briefly checking the power the spell contained before proceeding to dispel them not long after.

'…Compared to my strikes, the spells are around 50% stronger than before,' thought the young man to himself, his eyes slightly widening in surprise. 'Does it have something to do with some passive skills I haven't taken notice of?'

Curious as to what caused his spells to become stronger all of a sudden, the young man went ahead and brought up his notifications in front of him, going over them one by one to see which specific item caused the difference he noticed.

Ding!

[After drinking vials of Intermediate Physical Reinforcement Elixir and Intermediate Mental Reinforcement Elixir, you have gained +20 VIT, +20 STR, +20 AGI, +20 DEX, +20 INT, +20 WIS, and +20 PER.]

[…]

[You have gained the passive skill 'Intermediate Reinforced Body and Soul'.]

Looking through his notifications in detail, Valyr slowly began to nod in satisfaction as he went over the effects of each item.

[Due to the effects of the True Rebirth Pill, you have gained the following stats: +80 VIT, +80 STR, +80 AGI, +80 DEX, +80 INT, +80 WIS, +80 PER, and +80 LUK.]

[Due to the user already having the skills 'Enhanced Mana' and 'Enhanced Vitality', the True Rebirth Pill has converted this energy to instead enhance your currently awakened hidden stats.]

[Due to the effects of the True Rebirth Pill, you have gained 7 points each to both Vigor and Mana Purity.]

'That's unexpected,' said Valyr to himself inwardly, slightly surprised that the True Rebirth Pill would convert the unused part of its effects into something that would benefit him.

'Then again, it wouldn't make sense for me to obtain those two skills again. After all, I've already obtained them from the first True Rebirth Pill.'

With both the Reinforcement Elixirs and the True Rebirth Pill's notifications more or less what he expected, the young man was only left with the notifications that came from consuming the Mystic Tincture.

Thankfully, it was there that he finally obtained his answer.

[Due to the effects of the Mystic Tincture, you have gained the following stats: +5 VIT, +5 STR, +5 AGI, +5 DEX, +5 INT, +5 WIS, +5 PER, and +50 LUK.]

[Due to the effects of the Mystic Tincture, you have gained the following hidden stats: 5 Vigor, 6 Mana Purity, 5 Weightlessness…]

[…]

[The Mystic Tincture has located the remnant parts of specific elixirs that have yet to be utilized.]

[Awakening… successfully awakened.]

[Due to the Mystic Tincture reawakening the True Rebirth Pill's remnant parts, you have gained the following stats: +50 STR, +50 AGI, +50 DEX, +50 INT, +50 WIS, +50 PER, and +50 LUK.]

[Due to the Mystic Tincture reawakening the True Rebirth Pill's remnant parts, you have gained the following stats: …]

[Due to the Mystic Tincture reawakening the Mystic Infusion Pill's remnant parts, you have gained 125 points of Mystic Energy.]

[Due to the Mystic Tincture reawakening the Mystic Infusion Pill's remnant parts, you have obtained the passive skill 'Mystic Resonance'.]

"Bingo."

Though he was slightly taken aback by the fact that he had gained almost another 100 points in all of his stats thanks to the Mystic Tincture, Valyr's attention was mostly focused on the skill he had gotten out of the tincture's effects.

Taking a look at the new skill he got, the young man eventually nodded in understanding, seeing that the skill improved the damage he dealt with energy-based spells by 15%.

Adding on the fact that his INT had risen sharply thanks to the various elixirs he consumed, the fact that his spells had become 50% stronger than before finally began to make sense after that.

'System, show me my current status.'

"Damn." Briefly whistling in admiration as he took a look at his updated status, the young man soon closed all of the screens he brought up before shifting his attention back to Mystia.

"I suppose you gained a lot from the elixirs?" Noticing the slight smile on Valyr's face, Mystia asked him with a slight smile of her own.

"A lot more than I thought I would," replied the young man with a nod, thanking her for the elixirs she had given him.

In response, Mystia told him that it was only a fair trade, considering that he would have to take risks of his own once the time for the Myriad Prodigies Tournament arrived.

"In any case, let's move away from the tournament for the meantime," said Mystia after that, reminding both herself and Valyr that the tournament at Algerie Kingdom was still three months away.

Returning the topic of their conversation back to the Nascent Rebirth Elixir, she went ahead and taught Valyr the basics of alchemy first, acting as a sort of preparation for the concoction process that was yet to come.

Though, once she noticed that the young man was better at alchemy than she initially thought, she decided to skip over some of the steps that were necessary for a beginner to learn, eventually deeming the young man ready by the time it was around afternoon.

"Now that you've gotten pretty much all of the basics down…"

"It's time for us to move onto concocting the Nascent Rebirth Elixir."
