Bell walked up the steps to the Guild lobby. He was perplexed as he carried many things in his bag. Unusual things that he somehow knew what to do with them.

He visited one of the tellers. Eina was off today, so Bell just exchanged his load. He exchanged 45 magic stones, 6 Goblin Fangs, 3 Kobold Nails, the large multicolored magic stone from the Fury Needle Rabbit and a Jack Bird's Golden Egg. After the Guild gave him his purse of valis. They also gave him a receipt.

Bell and Hestia clanked their metal tankards as they celebrated a fine day. Bell drank the slightly intoxicating hard lemonade, that was moderately watered down. Clean water really expensive, like Alv Pure Water, with most sources of water giving the chance of possible ailment. But, alcohol could cure any source of water as long it was filtered of its sediments.

Cheap alcohol from hopps, barely and potatoes were used to cure most of Orario's drinking water. But, with Bell's good day. They splurged a bit and got themselves some of the higher end flavored drinking water.

Bell and Hestia were eating high off the hog, literally. Having an Applewood smoked Ham weighing in at 14 lbs. On the side were baked apples, pan fried green beans and fresh watermelon.

Hestia pulled out a box and a status update paper, "I know you were wondering where I went while you were shopping for food. So, I thought after updating your status, that I should pick you up a beginners mixing kit."

Bell smiled as he opened the box to see a magic bunsen burner, a small still, beakers and vials. Everything he would need for his new hobby.

Bell thanked her and looked over his status.

Strength- 95 I, Endurance- 105 H, Dexterity- 142 H, Agility- 233 G, and Magic- 31 I.

Skills

Apothecary- The user can create new Potions never before discovered. As a side effect, the higher the user's Magic is. The more intuition the user will have at crafting Potions.

Bell was excited about having his very own Skill. And he was even happier knowing why his Magic was increasing without a Spell. This update solved his confusion about the Gobs Potion and why he was so fascinated with the new Drop Items he brought home with him.

Hestia looked on at Bell smiling at her child's glee. She still hid the other skill, Liaris Freese, from Bell. Fearing of what a ruckus it might cause if he let it slip out by accident. In the mean time, she figured that Apothecary wouldn't be any true harm. It was going to come to light sooner or later. Now, Bell would have a better handle on it.

Bell was busy into the night, using his still on the Fury Needle Rabbit's needle. The Drop Item was hot to the touch, needing to be handle carefully. The boiling water fed vapor through the tubing where it condensed into an orange liquid. The orange liquid was then drained into four vials. The vials were warm and bubbled if introduced to sunlight.

He had a vial holding crate full of already made Potions. He had decided that the definition of Potion would soon no longer apply to just healing people. It would grow into a variety of effects.

He had 12 Health Potions, 6 Gob Potions and 4 new Potions that he had yet discovered what they could do. He figured he'd have to test it in the Dungeon.

Aiz stood in front of Loki and heard Loki ask boggled out of her mind, "A vacation? Why would you leave me?"

Aiz looked blankly, "You're overreacting as usual, Goddess. I'm not leaving you. I'm just going to do my best to get stronger."

Loki bawled for many minutes before granting Aiz's request.

Aiz watched as Bell leaped off the wall of the 4th floor. Cartwheeling through the air he sails over a Dungeon Lizard. He fishes out an orange liquid filled vial and lands skidding back to a halt. He bits the cork out and spits it out.

The Dungeon Lizard shoots it's impressively long tongue at him. Bell downs the potion and suddenly takes off to the side to dodge the attack. His right hand begins to have sparks fly off his finger tips.

Aiz's golden eyes take in the flames he dispenses from the palm of his hand. Like lightning, the flame zigzags through the air and impacts the Dungeon Lizard. An explosion of fire and smoke engulfs the area of impact. When the smoke clears, Aiz sees crater with the edges of it being hot and lava like.

Bell lands and turns around to off another fire bolt at an oncoming Goblin. He let off three more bolts before seeming startled at not being able to fire off anymore. Aiz was astonished that he could create such incredible concoctions.

He fished out another vial of black liquid. He popped out it's cork and let liquid splash on the ground. The floor grew stone into a barrier between Bell and another pack of Goblins. He moved quickly and finished off the current pack.

He fished out another orange vial and swallowed it. He fired off enough fire bolts to finish the other Goblins. After he collected his drop items and magic stones. he made his way up the Lower Floors.

Aiz surmised that he was done dungeon diving for the day.
