[Ace POV],

...…

[Basic Mana Pill-[44% Purity]],

Recovers 30% of mana for unranked species.

Recovers 10% of mana for rank 1 species.

It is ineffective for species above rank 1.

...…..

I was familiar with the use of the basic mana pill, so I skipped over its information and went straight to its purity level. When I saw the purity level of the pill, a series of thoughts flashed through my mind, the majority of which were related to how quickly my progress in alchemy should be now.

While my progress in other aspects of alchemy may not be as rapid as pill making, it should be faster than me relying solely on the generalized information stated in the basic alchemy knowledge.

The difference in following such detailed steps became evident. The only problem I could think of was a future problem that might arise as a result of my most of the time following the steps in front of me and not having to experience some things myself.

But that was left to the future because it is now the present.

As I reflected on these things and prepared to leave the lab to rest, a thought occurred to me that prevented me from doing so.

Since I didn't have anything I was really doing now, and since I was already close to being a trainee alchemist, and was even closer now due to the new knowledge, why don't I use this time to increase my success rate in making the basic mana pill, and while I grind that, I can use the other time when I have my breaks to try and concoct other pills I've been wanting to concoct but couldn't because of the time required to successfully concoct one?

With this thought in mind, I immediately got to work, purchasing the materials required to create the basic mana pills.

I also brought some extra wooden bottles to store the pills, so for the next few hours, I began concocting pills and filling the room with the fragrance of herbs, all while keeping a certain summoned creature's eye on me.

.......

"That's........a lot." I muttered as I looked at the numerous pill bottles on the table in front of me.

In the end, I became so immersed in pill-making that I'd switch from basic mana pills to basic health and stamina pills right away to increase my success rate with one and my purity level with the other.

Aside from that, I started learning about a new pill called the food pill.

Depending on how one looked at it, this pill is also useful.

The steps to make it are actually quite simple compared to making the basic mana pill, but I put it on hold due to the same function it had that did nothing to one's combat power.

The food pill effect was straightforward as its purpose was to alleviate hunger for a few hours.

There are also no side effects.

Aside from a lack of nutrients in the body, I suppose.

Hmmm.

I'm wondering if nutrients are even necessary because of the ability to level up.

I only attempted to make it now because I was intrigued by its effect and it appeared to be quite simple to make, as evidenced by my success on my first attempt.

It's only because of how I abused my pills, I'm still standing here energised as if I did nothing in my made-up lab.

I don't even know how many basic mana and stamina pills are currently in my system.

I would have kept doing what I was doing and concocting if it hadn't been for the primordial chronicle notification.

This is the second notification; I ignored the first because I didn't want to disrupt my concentration, but I had to stop when I heard it again.

I didn't even check the purity of the pills I made because I knew I was getting better based on the fewer black spots on the pills' surface, but my concentration was cut off by my teammate.

Only Anna can contact me in the other dimension.

This was my thought, but when I finally called the primordial chronicle in my head to see what was bothering me, I discovered that it wasn't a message from Anna, but rather a notification from the primordial chronicle itself.

.......

[Title Gained[Trainee Alchemist]],

...…..

This was the first notification.

......

[Title Gained[Apprentice Alchemist]],

.......

And this was the last.

Both notifications were perplexing since I had no idea what they meant, but I was also intrigued because I saw a term that I'd been seeing since the start of the apocalypse whenever I viewed my status.

Title.

...….

[Status],

[Name: Ace Blaze [Yet to evolve]],

[Age: 17],

[Race: Human [Homo sapiens]],

[Affiliation: None],

[Level: 25[29[66%]],

[Job: [Alchemist lord[69.3%]],

[Store],

[Map],

[Contact],

[Ranking: Not on the rank board],

[Title: Trainee Alchemist[Inactive], Apprentice Alchemist[Inactive]],

...…

It was exactly as I suspected, and the notification I received from the primordial chronicle is indeed related to the title section I always see on my status.

This was the only section of my status that I was oblivious of, but that appears to be changing.

With this in mind, I concentrated on one of the 'titles,' as the primordial chronicle refers to them, in the title section to see if the information pertaining to it would appear, which it thankfully did.

Seeing this, I cleared my mind of all distracting thoughts and focused on the text in the blue panel in front of me.

[Trainee Alchemist],

A title given to an alchemist in training that and that is recognized by the primordial chronicle.

*Increases total mana pool by 2%.

*Increases success rate of rank 0 items by 4%.

...….

[Title is inactive],

[Activate Title],

[Y/N],

......

'Huh?'

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

'What is this?'

The title's function was quite detailed, but it was precisely because of the titles that I was perplexed.

For one thing, I had no idea I'd subconsciously increased my success rate in concocting two pills with 30% purity and an 80% success rate.

I was completely immersed in the moment.

Something else I didn't expect was to receive a title as a Trainee Alchemist, and based on how things appear now, titles appear to be some kind of achievement that comes with benefits.

The title's two functions alone are valuable.

The first function adds 2% to my mana pool. It's not much, but I'm not going to say no to extra mana.

The function of the title that I found the most useful was the second one, which increased my success rate in creating rank 0 items by 4%. It may appear insignificant, but considering that scientists in my old world would die for a method that could increase the success rate of their experiment by 1%, there isn't much to say about the importance of this title.

The best part was that, in addition to my silver cauldron's 15% success rate and the 4% added success rate of the Trainee Alchemist title, it will now be much easier to concoct pills.

In fact it's almost impossible for me to fail at concocting 30% purity pills for the basic health and mana pill but before I jump into conclusions, it's better I check the other title that appeared with this one.

...…

[Apprentice Alchemist],

A title given to an experienced alchemist in training that and that is recognized by the primordial chronicle.

*Increases total mana pool by 4%.

*Increases success rate of rank 0 items by 7%.

...….

'Oh'

'An upgrade'

Seems like I somehow also became an apprentice alchemist without knowing.

Hmmm.

'Just how long did I spend concocting pills?'

When this thought came to mind, I suddenly started to think that perhaps it wasn't just a 'few' hours I spent down here to concoct pills.

As soon as I had this thought, I called out the primordial chronicle in my head and went to the contact section to send a message to Anna but when I tried doing so, I was told by the primordial chronicle that the message wouldn't go because she was not in the same works as I was.

This just confirmed my feeling that I must have been down here for a very long time but if Anna is not in the alternate dimension again, why did she leave her summon?

As I thought of this I turned to the location the shadow crow was just to find nothing there. The shadow crow was gone as well.

'Seems like I was too invested in concocting pills', as I thought if this, I returned my focus back to the panel in front of me.

There was not much to say about the apprentice alchemist title apart from the part that it seems to be an upgrade of the first title.

I guess all that remains now is to activate the titles and see what happens.
