511 A New Opportunity

“BUAAAAAAH!”
Nyx began to cry so loudly everyone in the entire village heard her cry. I am fairly sure dragon children shouldn’t be crying like this though! Didn’t Lucifer said they were playful but calm and all of that?!
“Ugh, what’s going on- Ah, right, Nyx… I had forgotten the daily life of raising children.” Lucifer sighed.
“What’s happening to her?!” I asked, I was unexperienced at raising babies. However, Lucifer had tons of experience as a father of three children back then.

“Right, Emeraldine and Partner must have made some. I guess they have yet to come back due to us sleeping… Okay little Nyx, come with mama.” I said, quickly carrying her out of bed, she began to move around, as if she didn’t wanted me to hold her, extending her hands at her father instead.
“Heh, it seems she prefers her father.” He said, as he held her, only for Nyx to begin biting his tail…
“Or more like she just likes her biting toy?” I asked with a smirk.
“Nom, nom… Mwah… Grawr…” Nyx began making cute sounds while she was biting her father’s tail, at the end I was still able to hold her if I wanted, she only wanted his tail.
At the end, however, I sadly gave her to him so I could go look for food, the two ended sitting over the bed waiting for my return, as I found Emeraldine and Partner in the room next to ours, they were using their free time to learn Alchemy.
Apparently Partner really wanted to learn new things, and she seemed to be interested in Alchemy, especially the whole throwing items together to create something new thing.
“Oh, I made it! Lesser Mana Potion!” Partner celebrated, having used harvested herbs from our Greenhouses and a few other materials.
“Amazing! You got way more talent than I had originally thought, Partner.” Emeraldine said with a smile, head patting her head.
“Of course!” Partner puffed her chest pridefully.
“Now you have to make an Antidote Potion and maybe a Health Potion, you’ve still got a lot to learn!” Emeraldine said, as she stopped Partner from getting ahead of herself.
“Geh?! All of that?!” Partner asked.
“Yep, so let’s begin for now!” Emeraldine laughed at Partner’s face filled with despair. Checking at her Status, she had just learned Alchemy Level 1, so she’ll probably just need to practice more to gain Skill Proficiency and level the skill up.
“Tyr, can you see if they do have talent for it?” I asked my fellow little fragment that might now become something like my spirit.
“Hmm… Yeah, both of them can also do so. They have grown exceptionally strong. That elf over there has a high level cap, she might be able to evolve again soon as well… The Vampire as well.” Said Tyr.
“Excellent… Now, what about you anyways? Why are you in this form to begin with and why can I just summon you around?” I asked him.
“What? The hell I would know why!” He said angrily. “Your powers might had mutated my fragment after you ate it. Perhaps not only I am a part of your soul now but I’ve transformed into some sort of Lesser Spirit… thing.” He sighed, seemingly rather tired of this entire thing.
“Interesting, I can’t believe I would get my first spirit like this. You know I got a big affinity with spirits due to my skills but none ever get close to me? It is very sad.” I sighed.
“That’s probably because your presence to spirits is very intimidating.” Tyr sighed.
“Well, for now, go back to the soul scape and don’t even peek.” I said. “I don’t want you to go around spying on my private life if possible.”
“W-Wait, you’re throwing me there again after I helped you-“
FLASH!
And he was gone.
“Hey girls!”
And like that, I greeted Emeraldine and Partner. They told me they were passing the time while I took a nap with Lucifer and Nyx. They already had a lot of meat ready to roast which they cut from the large chunks of beef we brought from the dwarf country. And for Brunhild, after she finished her ore meal she went to take a nap in her room. The twins were currently playing outside making snowmen with Gofumin and the other children.
“Alright then, let’s go make some delicious food for Nyx and everyone else, it should already be dinner time anyways.” I said with a smile.
“Food time!” Partner said. “Master, lookie! I made you a MP Potion too, with this you can restore… 500 MP!” She said happily.
“W-Woah! Amazing.” I said.
MP Potions are not really that good for me, I got so much MP that they’re just never effective at giving me enough quantity. HP Potions might be better, as I have drank some in the battle in the dungeon, it healed my HP and therefore helped my soul recover faster.
Maybe if I make a super Mana Elixir that restores a % of MP instead of a fixated amount, they could become more useful instead. I do wonder if there’s a branch of potions that heal a % and now a fixated amount, I’ll have to consult Emeraldine.
The Soul Grimoire only has recipes to make Undead and other Undead-related things, so I can’t really find actual recipes inside of my Soul Grimoire, Emeraldine’s knowledge is crucial in this point. Unless I could somehow buy a new Skill that allows me to see Alchemy Recipes or create them…
