[The [Blazing Sunshine Ward: Lv2] Skill Level has increased to Level 4!]
[The [Dragon Heart: Lv1] Skill Level has increased to Level 3!]
[The [Lesser Water Magic: Aqua: Lv1] Skill Level has increased to Level 7!]
[The [Steady Fighter: Lv1] Skill Level has increased to Level 6!]
[The Power of the Divine Skill [Heavenly Sight: Lv7] is developing further! Your Sight has evolved!]
[The Power of the Divine Skill [Heavenly Sun: Lv5] is developing further! You\'re shining as bright as the Sun itself!]
[The Power of the Divine Skill [Blazing Sunshine Ward: Lv4] is developing further! The Protection granted by the Sun has increased!]
[The Power of the [Dragon Heart: Lv3] Skill has improved greatly, your assimilation of the Dragon Heart\'s powers has increased! More Dragon Power is flowing across your body…]
The changes were instantaneous. Although no skill reached max level yet, sadly, they all improved so much in a single second that it felt flabbergasting. My entire body was shining like the sun for a few seconds, my heart was beating faster and faster, pumping draconic power into my very veins, and my eyes shone so brightly they hurt!
"Oof… T-This is a bit harsh to handle…" I sighed, gasping for air. I quickly drank an Elixir to appease the exhaustion I felt, but the leveled up Steady Fighter easily helped at that as well.
"Of course it is! You\'ve just drank all of them at once! I told you that you should had drank them slowly over the week, Sylphy!" Alice reprimanded me.
"Well I just wanted to get the power right away, it\'s boring otherwise." I sighed.
"Hah, you\'re hopeless sometimes…" She sighed.
"Nonetheless, it\'s not like we\'re done here with the menu." I smiled.
"Wait, you\'re planning to drink the others as well?!" Alice felt frightened.
"Yep!"
I quickly took another batch of items. This included the strengthening herbs and the strengthening potions:
[Muscle Strengthening Herb (E Grade)] x9
[Muscle Strengthening Herb (D Grade)] x18
[Super Strengthening Elixir (B Grade)] x4
[Divine Strengthening Elixir (A Grade)] x4
Yep, all of these items have the special effect of "enhancing the cultivation of physique a little bit". Of course, this "little bit" becomes higher and higher with each Grade…
-----
[Muscle Strengthening Herb (E Grade)]
A Special Herb that grows in certain areas of the world where there was great wars and bloodshed. It gathers the energy of these battles and becomes red like blood. If consumed directly, it can Enhance the Physique of someone a little bit. If used through alchemy, a special [Muscle Strengthening Potion] can be made, which has greater effects.
-----
The Herbs in specific are better when processed into a Muscle Strengthening Potion though. I sacrificed one for Saphaley earlier, but I got several more in return, and at a higher Grade as well, so it was a good exchange.
"Now, let\'s do some alchemy!"
Because the B and A Grade Potions have too much power, I decided to not mix them with the lower grade herbs fearing to get bad results, and I simply made each herb into a separate potion to minimize errors or something that could happen that might lower the quality.
Of course, thanks to my Alchemy Skill, the quality of the resulting potions was superb. They were all glittering with a golden aura and seemed way better than the original ingredient. Well, it helped that I mixed them with normal elixirs as well.
Ding!
[You have Synthetized [Muscle Strengthening Potion (D+++ Grade)] x9!]
[You have Synthetized [Muscle Strengthening Potion (C+++ Grade)] x18!]
[You earned 27000 Alchemy Skill Proficiency!]
[The Level of the [Alchemy: Lv9] Skill has increased to Level 10!]
[Congratulations! The Alchemy Skill has reached max level!]
[You can now Evolve the Skill through its Skill Tree.]
"Oh that\'s sweet." I said with a smile. "Let\'s see what I can get before drinking the potions…"
Ding!
[Loading the [Alchemy] Skill Tree…]
[The Skill Tree has been loaded!]
<[Alchemy] Skill Tree>
[Crafting]
[Metallurgy]
…
"Oh, so it can either become Crafting and Metallurgy?" I wondered. "I thought I would get something like… "Advanced Alchemy"."
"Well there are more advanced forms of Alchemy, but to reach them, you must first comprehend the other types of "Item Creation" Magics and Skills." Alice explained.
"I see… I guess I\'ll take Crafting for now, it does seems more all-rounder, I\'ll take Metallurgy later." I said.
Ding!
[You\'ve selected the [Crafting: Lv1] Skill!]
-----
[Crafting: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency 0/2500
A Signature Skill of Crafters.
A Special Skill that allows for the combination of materials to create brand new items that are often not included in Alchemy, such as Weapons, Armor, Furniture, Relics, Magic Tools, and more. Alchemy and Crafting go hand by hand, combining both Skills will grant the best effects.
Passive Effect (1): Grants the ability to combine existing materials or items to create brand new items and increases their Quality by +10%. Additionally, it grants the innate insight to gain ideas and enlightenment over what to craft and create, with a 5% Chance for the item created to evolve into an even higher quality and stronger item.
Level Bonus (1): Enhances the Quality of Created Items by +10%.

Nice, with this we\'re set. I do wonder if can keep earning Proficiency for it by doing Alchemy… Well, for now let\'s just drink the potions.
