Chapter 47 Seymour's Anger (Please continue reading)

While a rudimentary level of Fire Dance Star creation might occasionally result in injuries from explosions due to mistakes, a more advanced level ensures that even if a configuration fails, no major accidents will occur.

Therefore, after returning to his original form, Richard, relying on his highly skilled techniques, made five bottles of Fire Dance Star in a row, two of which failed and three were successful, and all of these were improved versions of Fire Dance Star.

When Milo brought Brett over to give Richard some pointers, the two happened to witness Richard successfully concocting Fire Dance Star.

Brett's face immediately fell, and he said to Meiluo with annoyance, "Meiluo, what's wrong with you? Do you want to see me make a fool of myself? The other party's alchemical bomb-making skills are in no way inferior to mine. You want me to instruct him?"

"Also, you're telling me he's a newcomer? Newcomers can be this good?"

After Brett finished speaking, he turned around and left!

Meiluo stood there dumbfounded, completely unsure how to explain this to Senior Brett!

Because, to this day, she is still full of question marks!

What's going on here?!

Richard looked at Senior Meiluo awkwardly and smiled sheepishly. She meant well, but he hadn't appreciated it.

I had already planned to hide the prepared Fire Dance Star before Senior Milo and Senior Brett arrived, and then put the failed waste on the alchemy table as a decoration before receiving guidance from Senior Brett!

But plans can't keep up with changes!

They arrived too quickly, just in time to witness my successful creation of Fire Dance Star!

Sigh. Richard didn't know how to explain this to Senior Meiluo.

"Richard, did you successfully concoct Fire Dance Star just now?" Senior Meiluo still seemed a little dazed, not quite having recovered yet!

"Well, I guess I was lucky. I succeeded on my first try!" Richard said, rubbing his nose sheepishly.

Meiluo turned and walked out of the room, looking dejected. As she left, she murmured to herself, "Could there really be alchemy geniuses in this world? They can create finished products just by watching one of Instructor Celes's teaching videos."

Judging from Meiluo's dazed eyes, she has completely fallen into a state of self-doubt!

Richard looked at the three bottles of Fire Dance Star in his hand and began to ponder. The retail price of Fire Dance Star was fifteen magic stones, so the shop's purchase price must be lower than that price, perhaps eleven or twelve magic stones.

Assuming the purchase price is twelve magic stones per bottle, then this time I can make a total profit of six magic stones, with a cost of thirty and an income of thirty-six.

If I further improve my skills in making Fire Dance Star, my profit margin can be further increased!

Richard's face lit up with joy! Wouldn't mass production mean he'd strike it rich?

wrong!

Richard immediately rejected his idea. First, the number of buyers of alchemy bombs in the entire trading area was relatively stable. If he were to forcefully enter the market without engaging in a price war, it would be impossible to sell a large number of alchemy bombs.

However, selling at a low price would be tantamount to killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, and it would also likely provoke public outrage from other shops.

From this perspective, my idea of ​​making a huge profit by selling finished bombs is unlikely to be feasible. However, while making a large profit is not possible, making a small profit is still possible.

Moreover, my own Fire Dance Star has a more optimized formula than the regular Fire Dance Star, so it should be able to sell for a higher price!

Having run out of raw materials, Richard returned to the trading area with three bottles of Fire Dance Star in his hand.

This time, Richard did not choose to sell the three bottles of Fire Dance Star to his twin sister. To avoid danger, Richard went to another alchemy shop to sell his three bottles of Fire Dance Star.

After successfully acquiring thirty-six magic stones, Richard went to Delis's Alchemy Shop, the shop where his twin sister worked.

"Hello, give me five more Flame Flowers, one Shattered Starwood, and half a Sulfur Brick."

"Hey! It's you again, junior. What happened? Did you fail to make the alchemical bomb?"

"Pfft! I told you long ago, take it slow, you can start with potion learning first. Look at you, wasting magic stones!" The brown-haired girl saw Richard come again, and this time to buy raw materials, so she naturally assumed that Richard must have failed.

"Uh," Richard couldn't be happier that the brown-haired girl thought so, so he didn't say anything more. After the transaction was completed, he immediately returned to the alchemy room on the first floor to continue making Fire Dance Star!

Just as Richard was enthusiastically preparing the alchemical bomb.

On the other hand, Seymour waited for Richard for three whole days in classroom 201!

To Seymour's surprise, three days passed, and Richard not only didn't come looking for him, but when Seymour went to Richard's dorm to look for him, he didn't even see him.

Seymour was furious; this newcomer to the school hadn't taken his words to heart at all!

Immediately, Seymour's twisted mentality began to surface, and he vowed to make Richard pay.

Although Seymour only advanced to the second-level wizard apprentice last year, he spent four years as a first-level wizard apprentice. It should be noted that if one fails to advance within five years, he will be expelled from the Ignis School.

Therefore, first-level wizard apprentices who have been there for four years are generally under a lot of psychological pressure, and those with talent have already made significant progress within two or three years of enrollment.

Those who remained were either lacking in spiritual aptitude, elemental affinity, or comprehension; there were always various reasons that led to numerous obstacles on their path to advancement.

And Seymour happens to be someone with poor mental aptitude!

However, when people encounter desperate situations, there are always a few opportunities.

When Seymour finally realized that with his talent, he had less than a 20% chance of being promoted within five years, he readily agreed to the Knight family's terms when they approached him and offered to help him.

With the support of the Knight family's resources, Knight was able to successfully advance to the level of a second-level wizard apprentice!

However, Seymour's four years as a first-level wizard apprentice were not wasted. In terms of witchcraft, Seymour learned several level zero spells, so when he was promoted, his strength was actually ranked in the middle among second-level wizard apprentices.

This made him quite proud!

This time, the Knight family contacted him, asking him to find the spider eggs that were originally on Stephana. If he could find them, he would receive a reward worth three hundred magic stones.

Because the Knight family possessed a special secret technique that allowed them to sense the approximate location of the Soul-Eating Spider Egg, they were certain that Richard, the sole survivor, had obtained it.

In fact, the Knight family had prepared a second plan for Seymour: a peaceful trade with Richard. The Knight family was willing to pay 500 magic stones in exchange for the Soul-Eating Spider Egg in Richard's possession.

But Seymour dismissed the plan without a second thought!

In his eyes, Richard, a first-level wizard apprentice who had only been there for two months, should be a complete novice who hadn't even learned any magic tricks. How could he be worthy of the enormous wealth of five hundred magic stones?
