As time passed Fraser didn't care about the aura anymore. Instead, he spent his days focusing on his improvement.
A sleep time of only a couple of hours allowed Fraser to maximize his time. The increase in his spirit allowed him to sleep less while recovering more as the spirit increased the processing speed of the brain and his increased vitality allowed his body to recover completely of the fatigue caused by the mental work.
Fraser only once left his private chambers for a longer time period than ten minutes. It was when Fraser stored every single book of the outpost library in the AI database.
After storing the entire library in the AI database Fraser quickly deduced that the library mostly was there in order to inform the students about the various dangerous animals one could encounter at the Howling Abyss. Also, there was a lot of book simply for materials, how to extract them, how to store them in order to not lose the vital parts, how to hunt animals for their materials, how to harvest plants while not hurting yourself and how to survive while getting hunted by the material you wanted to harvest.
Yes, the Howling Abyss seemed like a place where everything was dangerous and wants to kill you.
But there was nothing dangerous for Fraser, he simply stayed in his private chamber and researched his materials which he had brought from the Academy.
'I need to start learning on how to create the basic wound mending potion and the basic strengthening potion, also it would be better if I learn the four spirit technique before walking out of this private chamber in order to explore the howling abyss. The Knight technique also needs to be trained until satisfactory in order to increase my strength.'
Just as Fraser took out the recipe for the basic wound mending potion a notice of the AI sounded through his head.
[Modified spell model of dark rope successfully created, the linking pattern combusted into nothing and the runes didn't collapse]
As soon as the notice of the AI disrupted Fraser from his studying of the basic wound mending potion he frowned.
However, hearing the success of a modified spell model Fraser delightfully commanded the AI to show the modified spell mode.
'AI, simulate the modified spell model of dark rope. What attribute changed? Is it an overall increase or is it an overall decrease?'
[Not enough data to be able to simulate the modified spell mode of dark rope, more date needed to calculate a possibility]
'Then why are you able to simulate the modified linking patterns and different rune sizes for a spell model? Shouldn't you have enough data? AI explain how the simulating process for modifying the spell model work.'
[The AI creates a simulation of a spirit room and this simulated spirit room allows the modifications of the spell model in random patterns. It creates runes of random size and then links them with other runes of random size. Then every rune combination that collapsed as well as every rune combination that didn't collapse will be saved in the database. After that, each successfully linked runes pair will be linked with another random rune and it continues until every rune of the spell model is used up and the simulation either collapses or is successful]
'So what is the true reason why the AI is not able to simulate the modified spell mode? AI if I have enough spirit in order to simulate the world, would I be able to simulate the modified spell model?'
[Negative, there is not enough data for the AI to simulate the world. More data is needed to calculate the result of the modified spell model]
'So right now I have a modified spell model, yet I am not able to use it as I don't even know the result of the AI simulation. Besides I don't even know if the dark rope spell model of the AI works as the modified spell model is only a simulation made by the AI. Great, I wasted so much spirit in order to power the simulation and right now I am back to zero.'
With clearly visible disappointment on his face, Fraser grabbed the recipe of the basic wound mending potion and researched the necessary steps in order to create a basic wound mending potion.
Fraser had a choice between learning the basic wound mending potion or the basic strengthening potion. Naturally, it wouldn't have mattered to Fraser if he still was in the Howling Abyss Academy where he had sold every potion for magic crystals in order to buy the stuff he wanted.
But now the location is the outpost at the howling abyss. Fraser could have infinite magic crystals yet there was nothing he could have exchanged the magic crystal with.
'As the magic crystal is rather useless or I don't know the usefulness of the magic crystal I will have to trade my potions for stuff I want. I don't know how the market at the outpost works but I believe that a healing potion sounds more appealing to somebody who is risking their lives than a potion which will strengthen them for a period of time.'
Fraser pondered for a while but in the end, decided to focus on the basic wound mending potion even if the strengthening potion also sounded reasonable.
After all, as the basic explosion potion could be used as the trump card, that was the information from the fatty, then a basic strengthening potion could also be a trump card, a trump card with a longer lasting effect.
However, Fraser guessed that every single student of Magus Sept chose one of the three lessons he provided, animal taming, botany and alchemy.
As Magus Sept probably warned every batch of student that Alchemy was a hard subject to learn, most probably either had botany and animal taming.
As the description of the basic wound mending potion on its recipe said: "a potion that gives the wound or the living creature an external source of vitality, allowing it to close wounds without any loss of vitality or enhances the vitality of the creature…."
Thus Fraser chose the basic wound mending potion as probably every student would need it for their animals, plants or even their own body. For example, the muscular woman or her equally muscular little brother could drink one in order to fix their wounds as they obviously seem to be melee fighters.
Thus Fraser started to study the potion recipe of the basic wound mending potion which seemed similar to the basic explosion potion recipe.
Each step described the extraction of the essence of the materials, fusing it once in a weird ration or twice or thrice and then fusing everything into the potion.
Naturally, the time and the number of essences, as well as the components itself varied but the rest seemed to be identical.
'So alchemy is only extracting stuff and then fusing it in a weird manner? That is rather easy once you know how to do it.'
After reading the recipe of the basic wound mending potion Fraser started to follow the instructions.
