Chapter 259: An eventful first potions class.
Ignoring the Lord mage deliberately Sigrid clapped her hands. "Settle down, class is not yet over. | still have an
hour and a half to pass on knowledge. It is tfor you to all try preparing the radiance potion."
Ingredients were passed around and all the students focused on their cauldrons. One student, Finn, decided he
was wiser than everyone else.
He didn’t light a fire but pulled a flfrom his neighbors fire, controlling it with his hands.
"Finn, try not to stand out too much." Sigrid warned.
The boy was a show off. The vice was largely influenced by the fact that magic ceasily to him. He was
ranked eighth on the power rankings of mages.
It was a great accomplishment for he was sixteen and he had outranked older mage knights.
Finn ignored Sigrid’s warning, he added sprinkled three drops of Phoenix feather essence into his potion.
"Finn," Sigrid hissed, "For crying out loud your cauldron is going to explode!"
It exploded just as Sigrid’s warning cto an end. It erupted into a blinding flash, sending a reddish golden
liquid across the room. All the other students winced, protested or screamed because, like the Lord mage, they
were now spotting reddish gold on different parts of the body.
Finn was glowing, like a bright rainbow!!
"This is what happens when you don’t listen." Sigrid told the class.
The mishaps among the students continued. One boy was successful but he failed to control his fire and the
liquid was dumped all over him when his cauldron exploded like Finn's. He glowed so brightly that everyone had
to wear sunglasses while Sigrid cleaned him up with magic.
Another turned the liquid into powdered glitter that was blown across the room.
Gertrude, a ten year old girl managed to somehow turn herself invisible, except for her feet, hands, and head. A
lot of students lost focus thanks to her and they burst into laughter.
Others picked interest in her, wondering how she had brewed an invisibility potion although it had only been half
successful.
Half of the class failed completely and the other half was barely successful. Two mages however were successful
and one happened to be Emmah.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe other was an eight year old, Lila Evermore, a quiet shy girl that was always in the mage library or by the
lake, playing with the beasts that lived in the water.
Clean up was done and then Sigrid clapped her hands, it had becher go to signal when she wanted the class
to settle down or give her attention.
The class settled quickly, eagerly anticipating the next potion.
"We are not finished, | still have forty five minutes and in that time, | will introduce you to a strength potion.
Another nfor it is Titan's potion, named after the very first mage that cup with it, Titan Zamboni."
The radiance potion had excited the female mages most and the strength potion did the sfor the males.
"Ingredients include: the root of a thunder weed which is common in the rainy season. A drop of molten lava, a
drop of liquid iron, five pinches of moonstone dust, phoenix feather ash, a drop of dragon's blood....."
Finn raised his hand.
"Yes Finn, dragon's are real." Sigrid said.
Extra ingredients that can be added but are strictly optional include a giant's toenail." She paused because she
was expecting to see looks of disgust on the faces of the students.
"Ewwww...gross...disgusting....." Words like that went around. One girl even run out of the classroom with a hand
over her stomach.
"Becky has a sensitive stomach." Lila spoke up in a small voice.
It was such a cute voice that Sigrid wanted to give the girl a hug. She was adorable.
"Continuing on with options, mountain troll sweat..." She paused again, giggling when she saw even greater
looks of disgust on their faces. "Magic can be gross sometimes, not everything is roses and honey. You should
learn to have firm stomachs."
Finn whispered to Adam, "She means fat stomachs."
The two boys snickered before Sigrid glared at them and they pretended to be attentive.
She waved her hand and a new set of herbs appeared on her desk. "However, if one needs strength and only
herbs are available, there is another way. You can use ironroot, Thunder weed, Titan's leaf, storm vine,
sunblossom petals, bloodthorn berries, fire grass, fifty year old ginseng, mountain sage."
She explained what each of the herbs did. Sfirmed muscles, others enhanced endurance, boosted power,
increased strength agility, stamina, strengthened bones and physical prowess.
Sigrid spent fifteen minutes explaining all this. "Now on to the side effects. While the potion can give a
momentary boost of strength, it will leave one feeling very tired after the effect wears off.
In case someone has rage issues, it is not advisable that they use this potion because they will becso
uncontrollable temporarily. They will not be able to differentiate between friend or foe."
After giving the warning, the brewing segment was started. In five minutes, Sigrid was finished.
"I have brewed this quickly, it boosts power for just one minute. If you want to increase the tspan, you must
increase brewing tand the quality of the herbs used must be top notch."
The Lord mage had stepped out when she was brewing the potion, He brought a rock upon his return and placed
it in front of the class.
Mage knights followed him, bringing ten more huge rocks inside.
Sigrid downed the strength potion she had brewed, stepped out and punched one rock. It shattered into pieces.
"Your turn." she said to the students.
Once again, disasters followed and Finn was at the top of the list again. He added twice the required amount of
molten lava."
"Finn!" She hissed. "You are going to explode."
"Or | will be the next Titan." The boy ginned.
His cauldron exploded, a black liquid splashed all over his face. He sat down with a gloomy look on his face while
other students chuckled.
Sigrid was about to help him clean up
when another cauldron exploded,

He leaped through a window and it followed. The Lord mage followed the boy to make sure that he was not killed
by his familiar.
Lila was the only student whose strength was perfectly in line with her strength potion and Sigrid declared her
the most promising potion master in Eldoria.
