Chapter 59 - I'll Sleep in Your Room

"So what is Lightning Grass used for? Can I just chew and eat it?" Acel asked while levitating Aleph beside him using telekinesis magic.

Aleph immediately answered his question.

[The most effective way to use Lightning Grass is to brew it and consume it in the form of a potion or elixir. There's no major problem with directly eating the leaves and stems separately, but then you won't be able to absorb all the lightning energy contained in the Lightning Grass. It would be easier to think of it as drinking water with a hole in your chin.]

"So you mean don't just eat it."

[That would be better.]

Acel confirmed Aleph's answer and let out a long breath.

The method of refining and brewing magic herbs was already widely known, but that didn’t mean the process was absolutely easy. Magic herbs were materials that even decent alchemists didn't dare touch for fear of ruining them.

It was said that Marietta, the great alchemist, handled magic herbs freely, but among the remaining alchemists today, there was no talent who could do like Marietta.

It was impossible to easily entrust Lightning Grass to such people. Since the energy contained inside would evaporate with just one slip-up, he had to ask at least a trustworthy talent. Or do it himself.

But I know nothing about alchemy...
