"I am a basic herbalist. Nothing special. I use the light elemental mana within these light crystals to grow white clover, winter poppy, and even some feather jasmine plants. They are all just what they sound like. But they are the best materials for making purification potions. I usually sell them to the hall of light. Their alchemists focus only on light elemental mana so they will create almost all of the antidote of purification potions."
The angel from the Rize empire that had been brought as an herbalist to speak with Remey and Alma was very polite. He seemed to be the kind of person that would prefer to spend time alone within an herb garden than anywhere else. It was very refreshing to be around him even if someone didn't know his personality.
"Really? You want to focus on just one? You should get out of your little fenced in life and see the world. Do you know how many things are deep the caves? Or what about the abandoned graveyards? Have you even tried to touch the acid lake that causes too many known herbs to grow?"
"And what about finding the gloomy mushrooms that cause hallucinations? Or the melting spike weed? Have you even considered how valuable a toad crocus would be if you were to be able to carry it in a vial of acidic water?" These herbs were also a mystery to Remey and Alma. however, they were more focused on the radical difference in the angle's personality.
It seemed that the research driven attitude of the Fel empire was strong in many. Here in front of them was an herbalist that seemed dedicated to extremes. The more dangerous the place the more likely he would go to look for the herbs growing there. The cost of this was clear on his armor and body.
Even though this angel had armor instead of the normal robes an herbalist wore, it was covered in cracks and scrapes. His body had many scars of burns that showed off just how dangerous roaming this continent's lands could be. Especially the places that had a naturally tough environment.
"I am very happy with what I am doing, thank you. But if you wish to share the herbs I will take note of what I may be able to grow." The calm attitude took all the steam out of the Fel empire herbalist. He was ready to show off a lot but felt that it wasn't as much fun now that he had a calm wall to face instead of a dramatic and energetic person as usual.
"Show us everything you know. I want it all. Copy your books and describe everything to me. I need to use my alchemical brawler skills to record everything." Remey spoke with a vicious tone in her vogue. As if she was a ravenous beast that had finally found food after a winter of starving.
"Remey, what if they don't have the books we want. I need to see pictures to see if I remember the herbs they show us. I ended to see what other species of herbs might be here that have gone extinct on our continent. maybe we can even bring herbs here that they have lost too." Alma's desires were not perfectly in line with Remey's but they were not far off.
"It's fine, we can look over everything together. I might be able to make a higher elemental affinity potion sooner. I also promised I would figure out a natural elemental potion for Walker. I just need to figure out what these herbs can do and what qualities they have. Then we can figure out about growing them in genesis." Remey was waving off Alma's worries but she was not going to forget what Alma wanted. She had the same thoughts as well.
"What is an alchemical brawler? Is it the same as the alchemy explosion artists I have heard of from the fire elemental hall?" The Rize herbalists seemed lost as to what Remey was. He had never heard of such a system user and wanted a little more information. Seeing that the Fel herbalist was wondering too, Remey decided it was better to handle this sooner than later.
"I am a unique class that only I hold. I am one of a kind for now. A brawler and an alchemist. Basically I fought with my siblings, became a brawler. They got sick, so I went to the alchemy building and met an old man. I learned from him because it was important and now that I'm a hero and did a bunch of stuff I was able to advance to a class that I truly wanted. An alchemical brawler."
The two looked at her even more confused than before. "What Remey is trying to tell you is that she can both fight with her fists and also create very good potions. She also has skills to memorize and note down herbs that will be useful. If you want, she also can use alchemy fire very well, it has helped a lot. But lately, her partner has been resting so you might not be able to meet him at the moment. However, the grand elemental spirits are their own choosers, he might show off a little." Alma's explanation made the two herbalists even more confused.
They had not learned much about elemental spirits. However, they knew them as dangerous. But hearing that a grand elemental spirit, a title known for the powerful to use, was resting within Remey's body made them a bit more off put. Adding in the fact that Remey was apparently a fighter and a great alchemist it brought them to the conclusion that they were looking at an enigma.
" I was able to make an affinity potion that was much better than the previous but with unique herbs here. I might be able to fill in the missing gaps. The light affinity potions could get better and purer. I wonder what I could use." Remey started to look at the first book that had been taken out from a bag the Rize empire herbalist brought. Her mumbling just stunned them since it appeared Remey was building new potion formulas in her head without even considering them.
"Did either of you bring any dried or fresh herbs with you?" Alma made sure that there was progress here. She was sure that Remey had already piqued their curiosity and also started to show what they could do. "I definitely want to see seeds or bulbs too. I can make them grow once I understand them a little. Then I can see how we can alter them to be used in a battle or even grow them to produce certain things. I'm not very good at making fruits but poisons and other things are better off for me anyways." Alma again shocked the two herbalists. They had not expected this turn of events.
"It appeared I have been speaking to experts and not the younger children I imagined. It is my fault for judging your appearances. Please take a look at my personal journal and these herbs." The Rize empire herbalist looked at Remey and saw her eyes glint.
"Ha! My herbs are better. Just look at these. One whiff of this one and you will be knocked out for a day at least. And this one here is called a dog ear leaf. It's from a tree that's covered in sap that can't be washed off by anything but boiling water. And this one is…" The Fel empire herbalist trailed off as he dug out more and more vials from his own bag. It was very clear that he could ramble on for hours now that he knew someone was so interested in what he had to show.
A few of the angels and elf guards saw the sudden changes in the four talking. Not many would follow what was happening, but it seemed that there had not been a single hitch in their sharing of information. Whether it was alchemists or herbalists, no one could ever describe the unique ways they thought. It wasn't driven by the desire to help others or to create something amazon. But alchemists and herbalists seemed to be driven by a mysterious urge to create and explore. Whether they liked one species of herb or one kind of potion, they had the desire and that was that. The world could only provide.
That was why many of the angels from both empires that guarded over the four were sure that even if Geniss became an enemy, that their potion would somehow make their way throughout the Sigil continent. It wasn't that they would be traded, but that the knowledge would be shared at a rapid pace. Especially when the topic came to affinity potions.
