"Oho… It seems that things got very good." I smiled back at the results of my efforts. "I even got a new Skill as well!"
-----
[Dragon Scales: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/10000
A Skill that manipulates Dragon Power and imbues it into the skin of the user, helping them temporarily grow powerful and hard Dragon Scales. The higher the level of the skill, the more scales can be grown around the body and the stronger and more adaptable they can become. Scales can bounce back 10% of Magic Damage and decrease 15% of Physical Damage taken, with an additional +5% to both bonuses with each Skill Level.

"Interesting, this Skill can make my scales stronger… Which means they can be of higher quality as well! Oh, wait…"
I quickly utilized both Mana and Dragon Power, which can be created using even more Mana, as I saw Dragon Scales growing out of my skin easily. This time I didn\'t even had to channel all the power of Ruby into me as this was a skill directly coming from my own body.
Which means… I can probably produce scales at an even faster rate. It is worth giving it a try though. I decided to concentrate and continuously grow more scales below the others, as the older scales suddenly began tearing down and falling from my skin. Blood came out too, but it wasn\'t as painful as the previous method.
"A single arm\'s worth of scales is around 12…" I analyzed. "And that cost me around 150 MP… Good, let\'s keep this up, also Dragon Scales gains more proficiency the more scales are destroyed and regrown, a win-win."
Like that, I spent thirty minutes pilling up over two hundred scales and emptying almost all my MP, which began to slowly regenerate thanks to the many bonuses I held, and also my Spiritual Realm, which had Spiritual Treasures capable of hastening Mana regeneration.
The Grimoire gave a dinging sound once more, as a Skill had leveled up.
Ding!
[The [Dragon Scales: Lv1] Skill Level has increased to Level 2!]
[Your Dragon Scales are now stronger, more resilient, and of higher quality!]
"Impressive! You\'ve produced 264 scales, master! Shall I make more potions with them?" Hendrick wondered.
"Yeah, can you make them for me now that you saw the full recipe?" I asked him.
"Of course I can! I believe we can make more as long as you also give me more of that blood though…" Hendrick said. "Also our Wyvern materials are already down to half, are you sure you want to spend them all?"
"Yeah, wyvern materials don\'t matter much anymore. We\'ve got a higher quality materials now." I smiled. "Also Ruby, you\'re going to give us some of your materials."
"Raar?!"
Ruby panicked a bit, but he lowered his head and accepted his fate.
However, I simply put a bottle below his mouth.
"Now drool, spit as much as you can inside."
"Rah…?"
"Yeah, Dragon Spit is quite a high-quality material as well!" Hendrick added.
"GRAH?!" Ruby seemed shocked for some reason…
"What? Did you thought I was going to butcher you alive or something?" I sighed. "You dumb lizard, do you think I would hurt my loyal dragon? If I hurt you your battle power will lower while you regenerate. Idiot."
"Aww, you\'re trying so hard to pretend you don\'t care about him and how he feels~" Eleanora teased me.
"Eh? I-I don\'t care!" I roared back. "Anyways Ruby what are you waiting for?!"
"Raar!" Ruby happily drooled his way into several bottles.
"Ohhh! Although it is not as good as pure dragon blood, with the drool and your blood, master, it should be enough for now! Though, it is a pity we can\'t take some of Ruby\'s blood at least." Hendrick pointed out.
"Once he grows and levels up some more he\'ll be able to develop better regeneration skills and magic, when he\'s very strong I think he\'ll happily give out his blood and scales without hurting him." I nodded.
"Ah, so you do care." Hendrick laughed.
"Eh? I don\'t! I am merely being efficient." I sighed. "Anyway, I am leaving the job for you, Hendrick. Ruby, if you want to accompany us you\'ll have to wear a tamed monster collar, here, I\'ve made one for your size now."
Ruby happily got himself a black-colored collar around his long neck, he seemed happy.
"Raar!" He began to lick my face happily.
"H-Hey you damn! You stink! Don\'t lick me!" I tried to get him off me, but he was very insistent.
After freeing myself from Ruby, Hendrick started making the potions.
"I estimate we\'ll be able to make around twenty or a bit more, perhaps thirty!" He said happily. "I\'ll possibly have them ready once you\'re back from your trip, have fun master."
"Thank you Hendrick."
I walked out of my room, with Eleanora and Saphira excited about a normal and relaxing day at last, and I reunited with my friends after that. Elizabeth and Erika didn\'t seem to have any plans on letting me go either… It was going to be quite the long day, for sure.
Ding!
