Managed to somehow find ehr way in to the alchemy lab.
The issue was, she wasn't within the alchemy guild's alchemy lab. She was within a specially built alchemy lab within the fire dragon territory.
It had been made specially for making unique potions that required incredibly intense heat from a fire dragon's fire breath. Not to mention a few unique potion ideas that Remey was working on.
The ideas that some herbs could only show their unique properties with unique flames and unique forms of mana was not uncommon. However, the idea that a dragon's breath was needed was something many believed as a fantastical idea.
Mostly because that only applied to forging unique metal items.
Bit for an herb? That was considered a foolish idea since it would be too destructive.
Yet, Remey had proven that to be wrong with her alchemy already. Ignus had helped her and before that, Midnight had helped her.
Right now, Remey was trying to decide which herbs would show unique properties based on a fire dragon's breath. The dragon race had some historical information about herbs that certain kinds of dragon would eat when they were not able to get certain manas for their growth.
This in mind, Remey begun to think about why that might be.
Was it just the fact that they ate those herbs because they had the chance to attract that mana which they needed? Or was it because they could directly use the mana within the herb? Or was there an aspect of the herb that became valuable to their bodies when they were entrenched within the naturally existing forms of dragon breath inside the dragon's body?
All those questions were why she had also requested similar labs completely steeped in the unique mana coming from every dragon to be built.
Even more, because she would be able to request the assistance of elder dragons and the royal dragons to potentially research potions made for dragons specifically using herbs that their bodies would need.
The same idea had grown for multiple other races.
However, Remey had allowed other alchemists to focus on them. Not because she was unable to do it herself.
No, it was simply that she was a dragon too so it would be valuable for her to focus on that race. Plus, she had a bond with the dragons, specifically, with Ignus over the other dragons.
Not to mention her friendship with Ventus, not that many people knew they had gotten closer.
None of this was odd since this was what Remey was working on.
The odd part was that Midnight had managed to sneak in to this lab which no one else really knew about. Regardless of whether Ignus was here or not, Midnight was standing watching Remey examine an herb.
"Walker should be off hunting down some magic this or that. I heard he would keep pushing for more guilds to form properly so that less work fell on the Genesis building."
Remey was trying to get Midnight to go away. Not because she was angry or unhappy that midnight was there, but because she knew that midnight was a large distraction.
"I can help." The three simple words broke any attempts to get Midnight to head out.
All because Remey still saw Midnight as a little sister and not the quick growing dragon she really was. Plus, who could really say no to Midnight? Even the grand hero of the heroic party couldn't do that.
"Fine, then help me try out the changes in this herb when only fire dragon flames are added. So you will need to only use fire mana inside your dragon breath.
If this herb survives or shows any changes while I try to manipulate it, we might be able to use it."
The herb in question was a fairly common herb.
Not near Genesis, but from the Sigil continent. The full appraisal had been done over and over along with the separation from other herbs before Remey was able to get proper knowledge about it from the dragons who had eaten it near volcanoes.
'Volcanic giant's ear
This herb is called volcanic giant's ear based on the mythology that there used to be various giant races. One such race known as the volcanic giants which would radiate flames stronger than volcanoes.
Regardless of the truth behind it, this herb is known for growing its very large red and orange leaves near volcanoes that have erupted within the last year. They will grow only during heavier lava flow periods which means they are abundant if the right time is happening.
Otherwise, they are very rare unless grown through the usage of magic.
Although, magically growing them is very taxing on the plant causing them to lose half of their fire affinity.
These herbs are known to be eaten by young fire dragons. This is thought to be due to their fire affinity assisting in the growth of the fire dragon overall.
This was never proven due to the scarcity of these herbs and the fact that dragons do not need to consume them when the volcanoes are erupting.'
While the appraisal had literally told Remey that the herb didn't need to be eaten by a dragon, the fact that they did was right there.
So, what if conditions weren't properly met? That could be the reason that the herb was not needed. However, if the right condition was met, then they might be needed and even desired by dragons more.
Midn gith took a deep breath forcing only the fire mana in to her breath. Her control of her own mana had grown significantly along with her body.
Now that she had that control, she could easily shift in to just a singular elemental dragon breath. Simply because she was a true dragon champion, she could mimic the purity of her breath to one single elemental mana with the proper focus and time to do so.
It only helped that she was in an area very high in temperature along with fire mana. That was just a large helping hand to what Midnight was trying to do.
When the brilliant red and orange flames broke free of Midnight's maw, Remey began to focus on the herb. She easily held it by the hand without any damage, proving her strength.
The orange and red leaf seemed to shrivel slightly before it expanded its leaves a little. It was evidence that the heat was what it needed.
What struck Remey as odd though, was that a slightly white fleck appeared between the orange and the red streaks on the leaf. Its color hadn't changed until a dragon's breath was used.
And now, this white streak proved that she had been right about the leaf having some
Other potential.
Without hesitating in the heat, Remey used multiple all around appraisal scrolls to ensure she had information through this entire process.
But before she could do more than five, she saw the leaf break apart and turn to ash. It had limits to the amount of fire mana it could absorb and use.
Especially being separated from the main plant.
This was good information though.
Her eyes shined as she saw what that white fleck was.
'Due to being bathed in a fire dragon's flame, the dormant pure fire mana within has been freed from the stem causing changes within the leaf.
As such, it is able to condensed the fire mana in to the leaf entirely making it much more easily absorbed and consumed. It is perfectly balanced to be eaten by a fire dragon due to the fact that flames of a fire dragon allowed for it to send some of this mana to its roots and cause a large growth spurt.
'
"The residual flames from a fire dragon allow for the plant as a whole to grow better! That's why the dragons like them. They are symbiotic to a degree! It will also allow the herbalists to grow them better."
Remey Wanted to plant a hundred right now where the fire dragons lived. To test the chances of the herb growing better and also to get even more.
This was already happening around the other territories and Genesis as a whole. Planting herbs everywhere so that they would grow the best that they could.
Then they could be harvested when they grew too much or were at the opportune time. It was something that allowed the entire city to understand nature along with contributing to the future of the city.
Midnight just sat there with her eyes shining. She was having a great day.
Way better than watching Walker bring along an arcane architect design small towers.
