Chapter 48 Progress
Chapter 48 Progress
Autumn in Morningstar City arrives very quickly.
It seemed like only a blink of an eye, but the trees and flowers along the roadside began to wither and fall.
Viktor turned his gaze away from the azure sky outside the window, raised his hand and gently rubbed the corner of his eye with two fingers for a moment, then lowered his head and continued to carefully cut the severed limb in front of him.
About ten minutes later, he had finished treating the severed limb.
Muscles and skin, fascia and bones... were almost perfectly treated.
"I've pretty much mastered the basic techniques... If I want to take it to the next level, I'll need to do some real physical modification experiments, right?"
Putting down his tools, Viktor got up and first cleaned the grime and blood off his hands.
Then I glanced at the first floor of the laboratory building... as usual, it was still peaceful, including the two production lines.
"It's been almost two weeks since the last time the magic structure misalignment issue occurred, and there haven't been any problems yet. It seems that the patch I applied is now fully effective."
In fact, most of the time, life at the academy was quite peaceful.
At least that's how it is for Viktor.
His daily life could be described as a monotonous routine, with little variation in the subjects he researched. Perhaps the only thing that changed was Viktor's attribute panel, which was constantly and subtly altering.

......
Unbeknownst to him, Viktor's various attributes and skill proficiency underwent a dramatic transformation.
In particular, with continuous daily practice, his proficiency in 'Basic Alchemy' and 'Basic Potions' has increased at an increasingly rapid pace, far surpassing other skills.
In terms of witchcraft, there has also been significant progress.
After acquiring the "Missile Master" title, the two new spells he learned progressed the fastest among all the spells Victor had learned. His proficiency quickly caught up to the mastery level, and even surpassed that of the other spells.
This was achieved even though Viktor didn't spend much time practicing each day.
If he had focused all his energy on studying witchcraft, perhaps he would have become a master of both arts by now.
In addition, regarding equipment, he finally succeeded in absorbing the previously obtained 'Magic Shell' and 'Witchcraft Scroll. Magic Missile', gaining two more permanent attributes... especially the 'Security Guarantee' attribute, which greatly increased Victor's sense of security.
This skill provides a magic shield around the clock, without requiring Victor to use magic to maintain it or to put any effort into its upkeep; it is triggered automatically when attacked.
Although the shield isn't particularly strong, it allows Viktor to react most of the time, making it a lifesaver.
In addition, Viktor has made some improvements that are not visible on the panel.
For example, he is now able to handle the physical alchemy tasks that Manugs has given him, such as routine tasks like separation and extraction. If nothing unexpected happens, he may soon be able to start his own independent physical alchemy work.
Regarding the alchemy production line, after spending countless nights, Viktor finally devised a small gadget that could curb the rune structure misalignment caused by the alchemy golem's magic leakage.
Two weeks have passed since I tried to install it, and there haven't been any more rune structure misalignment issues since.
Viktor was quite pleased with this.
Although he felt that his little gadget still had room for improvement, the current effect was quite good.
He still remembered when he first arrived here and asked Nina if she had any way to solve this problem, Nina shook her head with a look of disbelief. But now he had actually solved it himself... He had to admit that this sense of accomplishment made him feel especially satisfied!
However, today, Viktor will probably be unable to maintain his monotonous life of going between home, work, and school.
The reason is simple: Nina, who had been exploring the Astral Plane for a long time without any news, finally returned from the Astral Plane and sent him a message, inviting him to the party again.
Victor naturally wouldn't refuse.
His relationship with Nina was fairly good. She had great potential and the hope of becoming a formal wizard. If she could succeed, it would actually bring him some benefits.
Secondly, he was also very curious about astral exploration.
Since the beginning of the Astral Tide, just as Nina had said, he had indeed often heard rumors, such as a certain wizard having the good fortune to enter a previously undiscovered astral plane and then having the good fortune to acquire some precious astral artifacts.
I've also heard of some greedy, unlucky fellow who unknowingly died in the dangers of the astral plane.
Since Nina was able to return safely this time, she must have gained something.
He planned to get some information from Nina.
After all, the astral tides are still a long way off. In his plan, if everything goes smoothly, he will also go to explore the astral plane after he advances to the intermediate wizard apprentice level... But for now, he should go keep his appointment, since it's getting late!
Victor glanced at the time and stood up.
After quickly cleaning the worktables, he straightened his wizard robes and headed out of the academy.
It was the same restaurant where they had met before. Victor hadn't been back since, but he remembered it fairly clearly. He refused the messenger's advance and went alone to the private room where they had met before.
Gently pushing open the door, I saw Nina dressed in unfamiliar clothes, but with the familiar smile... and heard her greeting:
"Victor?"
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
"I've been waiting for you for ages, why are you only arriving now?"
