Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!-Chapter 523 Creating New Items
----- f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
Emeraldine was going a bit nuts with the concept of the Skill I had. I wished I could give it to her, but I had already requested the System and it said it was something impossible to do. I looked into the leveled up Skill in detail as I showed it to Emeraldine and Partner:
-----
[Novice Alchemist Recipe Book: Lv2]
A Skill that only incredibly talented Alchemist can learn. It grants access to a special Book that can materialize out of thin air, where an alchemist is capable of accessing a series of recipes that are unlocked over time and the Skill Level, it also grants detailed information about Materials which are then registered in the book.
Through the book and the required set of special Skills, Synthesis can be done anywhere. Additionally, new Recipes can be created using certain materials and by experimenting around. [Instant Creation] recipes cannot be modified. However, the Empty Slot can be modified and made into any recipe of the user's choice. Once it is decided, it cannot be modified later.
Available Recipes for [Instant Creation]:
Level 1: [Lesser Health Potion (Normal Grade)], [Lesser Mana Potion (Normal Grade)], [Lesser Antidote Potion (Normal Grade)] [Empty Slot]
Level 2: [Holy Water (Rare Grade)], [Black Potion (Rare Grade)], [Empty Slot], [Empty Slot]

"Eh?! Holy Water and Cursed Black Potions?!" We all asked in unison, seeing the items there really shocked us!
"How come a ghost like me can just make Holy Water?" I asked in surprise.
"And… Aren't those Cursed Black Potions the same we encountered at the beginning of our adventure? Those being used by the Bandits and that shady Necromancer guy." Partner said.
"Precisely that!" I said.
"So you can mass produce Holy Water and Cursed Black Potions! What are the ingredients?" Wondered Emeraldine.
"W-Well, Holy Water needs… Purified Water and… White Glowing Stone? It can also be replaced by other items imbued with holy light attribute." I said. "And Cursed Black Potion needs Poisonous Herbs like the Black Shredder Herb, Poisoned Water, and Demonite Ore Dust." I read through the ingredient's requirements
"D-Damn that last one sounds a bit nasty to make!" Partner said.
"Yeah, it is a bit nasty, and I don't know if I should ever make it. I remember we destroyed and burned them because they're a deadly drug for people. It enhances power but makes them go mad… But maybe it could work for me? I mean, I am a Ghost, and I remember it boosted the power of Undead a lot." I said while rubbing my chin.
"Yeah, it is an interesting idea…" Emeraldine agreed.
"Eh?! Are you two seriously considering it?" Asked Partner.
"Of course, it would be bad for me, but for people like Partner, Maria, and Lucifer, it would be an amazing enhancer to your performance. And you should be strong enough to withstand the side effects, right?" Wondered Emeraldine.
"T-That's… well, maybe." Partner said. "Though I'm wondering why the items have Normal and Unique Grades? The Bomb has another Grade altogether."
"That's because those are groups." Said Emeraldine. "Normal Grades goes from H Grade to F Grade, Rare Grade starts from F Grade to D, Unique Grade from C to B, and Mythic Grade from A."
"I see… That clears things up a bit more." Said Partner.
"So our Bombs are Unique Grade?!" I asked.
"Yeah, they're amazing." Emeraldine said. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
"Alright, maybe we should really make some then…" I said.
"Also, how about you try creating a Black Potion and Holy Water? I believe you've got materials within your Inventory." Emeraldine said.
"Alright, let's see… [Instant Creation: Holy Water]! [Instant Creation: Black Potion]!"
FLASH! FLASH!
From both my left and right hand, two items materialized from within a spiraling magic circle. I saw a few item icons inside of my game-like Inventory disappear, as their count lowered by a bit, and then, two bottles appeared in my hands, one holding a pure transparent liquid emanating a slightly holy light, and another that was completely black, slimy, and disgusting, emanating a deadly aura.
Ding!
[You have Instant Created [Holy Water (D Grade)] x1 and [Black Potion (D Grade)] x1!]
[You earned 200 Alchemy Skill Proficiency]
[You earned 50000 EXP]
"And done!" I said with a smile. "I even got 50k EXP and 200 Alchemy Skill Proficiency, so making each one gives 25k EXP and 100 Proficiency, as long as I've got materials we can keep making more and more, and I can even level up out of this!"
"Amazing, but for what will we ever use Holy Water for? Aren't we friends with the Undead?" Asked Partner.
"If we are going to complete the Dungeon in the Dwarf Country that was infested by the Miasma, and probably has a Fragment of the Evil God inside, then it wouldn't be a bad idea to bring as much Holy Water as we can to prepare against the Miasmic Monsters there, I bet they'll be even stronger than the ones we found in the first Dungeon." Emeraldine said.
"Ah… right. Our attacks were still pretty good, but I bet it would had been way easier with Alchemy made items! Alright! I am all pumped up, I want to do alchemy too, even if I can't do Instant Creation!" Partner proclaimed.
"Alright!" Said Emeraldine. "Instant Creation is also amazing in that it can produce alchemy-made products right away. There are special, higher quality items and accessories, or even weapons and armor that needs several items already made from alchemy to be made properly. We could abuse Maria's powers for this. Holy Water is super good for the creation of Lightning Bombs, which can gain the [Holy Lightning] Trait if a lot of Holy Water is added to the mix!" Said Emeraldine, she was such an Alchemy nerd that I couldn't help but feel surprised each time she brought a new idea to the table.
"I see…" I said.
"And we could even formulate an even stronger Black Potion to give you guys a nice temporary boost in a desperate situation, heheh…" She giggled, growing more and more into a crazy scientist-type of alchemy girl.
