[Ace POV],

I found that there were actually many rank 1 pills available for me to start with as I searched through my memory for a rank 1 pill to begin with.

Of course, this was a positive thing because I didn't have to limit my choices due to a lack of options, but the trouble was, there weren't supposed to be this many formulas in my head because basic alchemy knowledge wasn't that valuable, to begin with.

When I had this thinking, I realised that there had been a significant influx of knowledge into my brain as I was evolving. As a result, the sheer quantity of recipes didn't seem so crazy.

"I wonder if I'll ever go through all the recipes here."

However, this piqued my curiosity about how many rank 0 pills I had access to and what kind of pills they were. Without thinking twice, I went over the knowledge in my head again for unranked pills and, to my expectation, there was a lot more information than when I had only used the basic alchemy knowledge I had purchased.

Naturally, as the number of unranked pills increased, so did the oddly high number of pills whose efficacy was in doubt.

'Invigorating pill for all genders, basic gender shifting pill, Hair growth pill.....', and the list of bizarre pills just continued on and on until I couldn't see it anymore owing to the priorities I had on hand.

Thoughts of "I should try and concoct one of them sometime" crossed my mind as I decided which rank 1 pill I should attempt to make for the first time again.

I searched the rank 1 pill recipes in my head for ones that seemed easy to make and the rank 1 pill recipes in my head for ones that seemed easy to make and applied to this.

Even while I wasn't looking for anything really complicated, I did want it to be at least somewhat practical.

Of course, each pill had a purpose, but this relied on the intended user.

Since it was possible for things to become murky and difficult to choose in the end if I knew too much, there were still a few rank 1 pill concoctions that I did not go through from the knowledge in my head. By doing this, I was able to reduce my options from all the rank 1 recipes I came across to five.

For a variety of reasons, rank 1 pill had to differ from unranked pills. The impacts of the pills demonstrate how much more difficult it was to formulate because it was immediately on a different level due to its rank.

I had to pick a pill that would be simple to create if I was going to make any pills, so that's what I did.

These five pills—Rank 1 health pill, Rank 1 mana pill, Rank 1 stamina pill, Rank 1 mana refinement pill, and Rank 1 mana cultivating pill—were the ones I believed were straightforward from their names and also seemed practical and useful.

The first three of these five were recognisable, which was expected considering that they were the improved versions of the unranked basic health, mana, and stamina pills I was highly experienced at creating. They were on my list in part because I believed that making these three pills should be easier than making a brand-new, unusual one.

As opposed to creating unranked pills, my job's success rate for creating rank 1 pills was less than 100%.

Creating rank 1 pills had a success rate of 70%, which was still very high, but that was it since there was still a 30% risk of failure, which was high in and of itself.

The three were originally included on the list for this reason because my experiment now was to become familiar with concocting rank 1 pill first and foremost.

Aside from these three familiar pills, there were two others that, for a variety of reasons, piqued my interest while being unfamiliar to me.

For starters, they were novel to me, meaning I had never examined them, which piqued my attention.

Anything that seemed valuable, intriguing, or has something special about it will always catch my attention.historical

In addition to the fact that these two pills seemed interesting, their use was at the very least intriguing based on the knowledge I had about them from prior experience.

The usage of these two pills was what initially prompted me to choose them since, as a result of their use, I was able to access new knowledge in my thoughts.

It was something I had encountered a few times, either in a store or when listening to someone speak.

The information that arose in my mind was related to cultivation.

Hmmm.

Cultivation.

Fortunately, I had knowledge of alchemy in my head from both the one I brought and the one that came to me from evolving.

When taken, the two pills—the mana refinement pill and the cultivation pill—had various impacts.

A mana refinement pill is a consumable item that increases the magical strength or mana of the consumer.

The pill will increase the amount of mana that a character possesses, improve their ability to control their mana or provide other benefits that allow them to cast more potent spells or use magical abilities more effectively.

Anyone could consider this pill to be normal, whereas the second pill was noticeably unique in some ways.

A mana-cultivating pill is consumed to help the one who consumes it cultivate or develop their mana or magical power over time. It is used to speed up the increase in the amount of mana one can control or generate which in turn makes them stronger.

The use of this pill may be confusing but to sum it up, it was essentially a pill that helps one increase the mana in their body and makes them stronger but when did it become possible for one to become stronger without killing monsters?

This is where cultivating entered the picture, and it was also the reason why another knowledge that wasn't part of the basic understanding of cultivation was triggered.

A cultivation technique that came with the other knowledge when I evolved.
