Emery wished he could do his potion-making inside the confines of the Khaos space. Unfortunately, he could not. 

The dragon watched Emery exit the Khaos Space silently, unable to say anything against him.

"I apologize, but I really do need to make some preparations for the battle. You can understand, right?"

Emery said with an awkward expression, before he exited through the gate.

Thanks to his nine months trip all over the world, his [Spatial Storage] was filled to the brim with a few hundred new ingredients. If he had to analyze each manually, it would take literal months, but luckily the [Universal Flora knowledge] skill did most of the job for him, so he didn't have to experiment on all of them. What she needed to do was to separate the ingredients into different properties. One category for healing the physical body, one category for strength, one category for healing the mind, one category for the poisonous ones, and so on.

Then, Emery focused on creating a potion that would be helpful for his remaining 4 days.

If it were up to him, he wanted to use the remaining days to experiment with potions that would increase his strength. But he believe that his strength alone would not be enough to win this battle. Then, he remembered his two specialty recipes.

[Strength Paste] and [Healing Paste].

Those two were nothing too difficult to concoct, but in exchange, he had to make them immensely powerful as it was simple. He spent some time experimenting and came up with the newest recipe that gives the best results for the most common ingredients.

[Strength Paste – Tier 1]

[Originality – Rank 3]

[Healing Paste – Tier 1]

[Originality – Rank 2]

After an intense, thorough experimenting, Emery had reasons to believe it was the maximum result he could achieve with the most common herbs that could be found in this world.

Of course, the main ingredient was still the blue powder from the flowers in the Forbidden Forest. He decided to gather a large amount of the blue flowers, before using his [Spatial Gate] to return to Camelot and see Gaious.

He found the old wizard sitting hunched on his table, busy scribbling on a piece of paper, while occasionally glancing at a thick tome resting on his other hand. 

Emery quickly placed two containers on the table. One was a small glass bottle filled with reddish liquid, the other was a hand-sized pot filled with thick, viscous green liquid. Both smelled rather pungent, but Gaious eyed the two potions with interest.

"These two pastes will be helpful for the battle, I suggest you make as many as you can." Emery explained.

There was no way he could just spend the last few days making tier 1 potions, so he decided to hand the job to Gaious and his apprentices.

Now that the two tier-1 pastes were done, it was time for him to focus on recipes that could help him get stronger.

He had two new special ingredients. One was the [Corrupted Lycanthore] that he found near the waters of the pond in the Three Claw Islands, the other was one-fifth of the slice of [Heavenly Fruit] he obtained from the sacred tree in Gaya Temple.

After a few simple analysis and experiments, Emery concluded the heavenly fruit was very similar to the [Gaia Essence] he often got from the Forbidden Forest's Gaia Tree, down to its effects and side effects, only that it was 10 times purer and stronger.

With the new ingredients on hand, Emery was excited to give a new, improved [Fey Gene Booster] a try.

To create a powerful gene booster, he would require three main ingredients. One was some blood from a powerful wolf to serve as a gene sample, powerful reagents and a strong acid.

Emery already had the third one. The Caracas flowers he had been growing were a rare tier 3 ingredient, but his problem was not in this ingredient, it was in the other two. Thanks to the lack of a strong bloodline and powerful reagent, the quality of the booster would have to be sacrificed.

But now, he has a piece of the heavenly fruit, so he could make a better, more powerful reagent and the vial of [Corrupted Lycanthorpe] would be the cherry on the top in this new potion.

He started making his potion, but it was noticeable that each step he did was slow and careful, ensuring there was no careless mistake that would result in him having to discard these rare ingredients.

After a quick trip to the caves, he found a few matured Caracas flowers sprouting on the walls. A year had passed since the last time he came here, after all.

He concocted the acid by mixing the flower and the new poisonous plant he found from his travels. Thanks to that, he was finally able to break through his maximum tier 2 acid and moved on to creating [Acid Potion – Tier 3]. The quality was almost the same as the acid potion he could make in the Magus Academy.

Next were the reagents. Unfortunately with only one fifth of the heavenly fruit, Emery was only able to create three dosages of them.

Within a short time, he managed to finish preparing the ingredients. It was time to follow the gene recipes and start brewing.

The potion was a difficult one. It required him to fully concentrate on controlling the heat while keeping an eye on three powerful ingredients, ensuring none would overpower the other and ruin the potion as a whole. Fortunately, last year he had some practice creating the less powerful booster last year and knew hundreds of possible errors thanks to that.

Even so, he still managed to make a few errors.

[Fey Gene Booster – Tier 2]

[Potency strength 30%]

30% potency strength can be considered a big failure. Even his best booster before was 70%.  Fortunately, with his [Fragmentation] skill, Emery was able to recycle the ingredients.

[Potency strength 60%]

"Still a failure," Emery shook his head.

[Potency strength 75%]

"Not good enough!"

So far, his [Fragmentation] skill was still able to separate the ingredients. He still had a chance to find the best possible potency he could achieve before he ran out.

After a day of testing, Emery finally succeeded in creating the best possible quality.

[Fey Gene Booster – Tier 2]

[Potency Strength – 110%]

Emery managed to create two masterpieces of the tier 2 wolf gene booster.

Now it was time to give it a try. He took a deep breath and poured one of the vials into his mouth.
