The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 210 Alchemy Theory
Early Thursday morning, Moran, Vasita, and Sylph arrived outside Lilith's dormitory: "Senior, time to go to class! There's an elective class this morning!"

Lilith rubbed her eyes and peeked out of the attic window, looking speechlessly at the heartless junior girls:

"Go away, don't disturb my sleep. Thursday mornings on odd-numbered weeks are for alchemy theory, which I already studied last year!"

After saying that, he slammed the window shut and went to sleep.

She came back so late last night, how did they manage to get up early this morning to wake her up?

"What a pity! Senior sister has already taken it..." Moran said regretfully.

“It’s alright, she hasn’t taken classes in angelic, demonic, or dragon languages ​​before!” Vasida said.

“Yes! Let’s come again tomorrow!” Sylph said. “Witches should always be all together.”

In the alchemy theory classroom, the huge room was eventually only occupied by Moran, Sylph, and Vasita.

Alchemy theory classes are the foundation for in-depth study of alchemical magic, but they are not required for beginner alchemy.

The introductory alchemy course is a compulsory course that all little witches must learn and master. It teaches them how to make basic magical items with the guidance of a teacher and alchemy blueprints.

Alchemy theory is an elective course that only young witches with outstanding alchemical talent who are preparing to study alchemy in depth need to take systematically.

Of their generation, only these three little witches possessed the alchemical talent to study alchemy in depth.

The teacher in the class was still Ms. Amisha in her blue robe.

"Since there are only the three of you, let's make ourselves more comfortable!"

Amisha brought out a set of curved sofas and a tea table, and even poured a cup of tea for each of them: "Sit down!"

Moran never imagined that one day she could snuggle up on a soft sofa with her friends, holding a warm cup of tea, listening to the dean, who was also nestled on a sofa across from her, give a lecture.

Ms. Amisha was clearly comfortable in this situation and began to speak on her own:

Alchemy originated with humankind.

Human mages saw that each race had its own racial talents: angels' wings, demons' tails, dragons' bodies, elves' natural affinity, dwarves' forging abilities, orcs' beast-transforming abilities... Only humans, with their weak bodies, could only rely on their mental power to control elemental forces. In order to improve their combat power, mages began to research "magical weapons" to arm themselves, and thus alchemy was born.

It started as just a weapon, but later it spread to all aspects of life.

Alchemy can transform ordinary items into magical items, and magical items into even more magical ones; it is a kind of magic that turns the rotten into the miraculous.

Human alchemy is a combination of wisdom and magic, with wisdom as the primary element and magic as a secondary one.

At this point, Amisha couldn't help but interject with a digression:

"When you go to the human kingdoms in the future, you must remember that human mages are all shrewd and intelligent, and human alchemists are the most shrewd of all. Without exception, any mage or alchemist who looks foolish is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Never let your guard down. If you are not smart, you will never be able to master human magic and alchemy."

"???" Moran looked at Ms. Amisha with a questioning gaze.

Amisha was sitting face-to-face with them, and Moran's change in expression was so obvious that Amisha could tell at a glance that Moran was having a lot going on in her mind. She couldn't help but ask a question that she would later regret: "What are you thinking about?"

Moran got really into the conversation: "I was thinking, Dean, when you talked about this part, you were so emotional. Did you experience it yourself?"

Vasita and Sylph also looked at Ms. Amisha with gossipy expressions. Amisha: "..."

She didn't want to talk about those painful memories.

If the dean couldn't get away, it would be to the point that he would still want to go to a certain mage tower to dig that person out and make him pay back the money!

No, we should take his entire mage tower, along with his treasury and spatial equipment, to vent our anger.

Faced with the gossipy gazes of the little witches, Amisha tactfully drank tea, selectively amnesia:
"Our witches' alchemical magic, while drawing inspiration from mages' alchemy, is somewhat different from mages' alchemy..."

Moran, Vasita, and Sylph: "Eek~"

"What are you yelling about? Listen to the lesson!" Amisha slapped the table.

The little witches immediately suppressed their laughter and pretended to listen attentively.

"...As I just mentioned, our witches' alchemical magic is different from the mages' alchemy."

Our alchemy relies entirely on magic and a bit of practice, and has little to do with wisdom, but is very much related to needs.

The witch has her own set of alchemical runes, which can be combined to create all sorts of magical effects.

A guy who knows a lot about witch alchemy and wizard alchemy once said that the alchemical runes of wizards are the treasures of the world that were opened by wisdom, and that's how they glimpsed a tiny bit of the truth of material transformation.

Our witches' alchemical runes are a set of exclusive keys that enable the transformation of matter, obtained through the world's favor.

The witch with the key could easily open the door.

While it may seem like an attempt to glorify mages, their insights into witch alchemical runes do have some merit.

To this day, no one knows where the witch's alchemical runes came from.

Just as the weeds grown by witches can be made into brooms that can fly, and only brooms can fly, the alchemical runes of witches only have discoverers, not creators.

Seeing how human mages could apply all sorts of patterns and designs to objects, transforming them into magical items, the witch predecessors followed suit, beginning to use their magic to draw various patterns on objects.

Then it was suddenly discovered that drawing some patterns with magic could actually give objects magical effects.

These runes, when put together, form the sorceress alchemy runes we know today.

Don't think that's easy.

In the academy library, there is a special hall containing nearly ten thousand volumes of "The Atlas of Failed Runes," all of which are patterns that predecessors attempted to draw and study using magical power, but which had no effect no matter what material they were drawn on in Valen.

The Rune Encyclopedia, in its very first volume, contains all existing individual runes.

The process of discovering these runes was also extremely difficult.

Of course, individual runes are just the basics; they can also be combined to form rune combinations.

These rune combinations, if drawn on a single object, can transform the object into a magical item; if drawn on multiple objects and arranged according to a specific pattern, they can form a magic circle…
