1 week later,
Lucas was in his master's workroom trying to manipulate the ingredients in front of him with the help of his mana and alchemy skills.
His master, Sam, kept looking in his direction trying to decipher his level of proficiency.
Lucas's development had been quite too fast under Sam's eyes. His proficiency in alchemy had increased significantly, and his skills were that of a 1st year alchemy apprentice.
While other alchemy apprentices took about a year to reach this level of proficiency, Lucas had covered it in just two weeks.
Yet even Lucas knew that if he didn't have the guidance of a Master alchemist, that too from one of the best master alchemists in the town, he wouldn't have progressed this fast.
Lucas made an ingredient in its essence state float in front of him, beads of sweat flowing down his face.
