The alchemy room was finally prepared. A strange device created immense heat and a large cauldron at the center with a large crystal ball covering almost half of the room. Several pillars extended from the ground and went into the crystal. Several strange jewels, rocks, and even crystals were on top of each pillar.

The large crystal ball enclosed everything, and the only hole was the one that led to the cauldron.

The cauldron had another set of glasses leading out of it and towards a table where all the magical ingredients were placed.

"So this is your Alchemist Chamber?

" Kyros was impressed. In all the kingdoms he was at, he had not once seen such an advanced alchemist chamber.

"Does it impress you, alchemist?

" The Champion Middle Claw asked.

"Of course! The human kingdom my master served doesn't have these extravagant devices to concoct his brew.. We did have a nice enchantment room, though.

" Kyros recalled the Omega Kingdom Creation rooms.

"You... know enchantments?

"

"Just knowledgeable in those areas.

"

"Which fields of Creation do you know?

"

"Alchemy, Enchantments, Blacksmithing, and Energy Conversion Circles.

"

"...You know... all disciplines of Creation?

"

"A little.

"

Calaminus rolled his eyes. His knowledge had grown from his two-year lesson trip. His expertise in those areas was practically saint-level.

"I wonder what world you live in...

" The Champion was amazed.

"I am a fallen prince, to be honest. I was trained by various masters and knew each of the Four Disciplines of Creation.

" Kyros explained.

"It seems that Champion Gojirrah is quite a lucky star...

" Middle Claw assessed as he watched Kyros make his way to the Operation Table.

Kyros stood at the center of the table. He watched as the herbs, naturally formed magical objects, and ores were placed on the nearby table.

"Here are the objects you requested, Alchemist!

" The acolyte bowed.

"Some of these would only be found in the Highlands in my world. Interesting.

" Kyros smiled.

More and more strange materials were being placed on the table, and Kyros sat on the chair and began to light up the operation table.

"When shall I start?

" Kyros asked.

"Now.

" A voice echoed at the back. Komodo and Gojirrah walked out of the room.

"What shall I create?

" Kyros asked.

"A Paralyzing Gas Bomb will do.

" Komodo smiled.

"If you do this, and succeed boy, you will be the first human to be given a formal rank in our kingdom! No longer will you be a slave! But you will be a true alchemist!

"

"I will not fail, Commander Komodo Dragon!

" Kyros declared confidently.

"Champion Middle Claw! I'll need you to harness the energy to keep that fire burning. I will also need someone to pour in tremendous force energy!

" Kyros ordered.

Another Champion stepped forward.

"Erm... Can it be a woman? Champion Middle Claw's magical energy has a potent, strong, and relentless death energy. I need force energy to counter it. I need life energy for this to work. This has too much Yang, and I need Yin.

" Kyros explained.

Champion Middle Claw, the acolytes, and the fellow alchemist practitioners all had a confused expression.

"Will it be of any help?

" Middle Claw couldn't help but ask.

"Yes. The Energy Conversion Circle is used to convert Magic, and Force Energy uses Runes using First Word. It's using the word that we would translate to 'Overflow' in Lizard tongue. The word that was fashioned here used Steel, Fire, and Lightning elements. And the concept of this Energy Conversion Circle is to use the three Elements to resonate and create an overflow of energy. The problem is... this seems to have been used a lot of time and has filled this Circle with a lot of thick clumps of energy.

"

"Thick clumps? There are no such clumps!

" The alchemist in charge of maintaining the Energy Conversion Circle exclaimed.

"It's tough to detect if you are not learned in Energy Conversion Circles. We call the phenomenon of these clumps of energy forming within the circle the Death Clog Residual phenomenon. Very common in places where those who use the circle are men. It's easy to prove my diagnosis.

" Kyros smiled.

"The Death Clog Residual phenomenon in Energy Conversion Circles causes a sudden burst of energy. These bursts are so small and undetectable that most alchemists would think they incorrectly applied too much energy. Even if the alchemist were to try his best to control the energy, he should notice some energy outburst, forcing him to pour in less energy. Unless the clumps of energy are cleared out, it will keep happening again. But the problem is... there is no female alchemist here.

" Kyros glanced around.

"So the clumps of energy never get drained out as new ones will form. As a result, this particular Energy Conversion Circle is bound to cause the Alchemist to fail at least once in every six creation attempts.

" Kyros explained.

The acolytes were all confused at Kyros's words. They could not understand some of the words that he was saying.

But Champion Middle Claw and the nearby alchemist were all amazed.

"So... That's it!

" Champion Middle Claw exclaimed.

"I've been failing some of the pills and energy core I try to create! And some of them is the explosive energy that disrupts the process even though I've been very careful!

"

"But why does this happen?

" One of the alchemists asked. He also noticed this.

"As I said... This First Word that is carved at the center means, Overflow. In short, this Energy Conversion Circle uses the magic or force that is stored in that word to convert energy. But for it to never run out or die out, that word has to have energy for its own to ignite the circle or kickstart it. And so, this circle is always designed to have energy for the word, and any energy that overflows from it becomes the converter to convert force or magic into whatever form of element or power you need it to become.

"

Many alchemists had their expressions changed.

"I take it that this boy is speaking some sense?

" Commander Komodo asked Middle Claw.

"He is not speaking sense. He is enlightening us! Most of us here haven't had the opportunity to study the discipline of Energy Conversion Circles! And he practically explained how this circle works!

"

Komodo glanced at Kyros.

"Alchemist... You speak First Word?

"

"Yes.

"

"Now that I think about it... Your Mastery on Serpentari is quite impressive. Although you speak Serpentari A, the oldest of all Serpentari tongue.

" The Commander also realized another fact he had long taken for granted.

"I only know that because one of my teachers was a Lizardman too. But my training in Energy Conversion Circle is based on First Word.

"

"I wish to discuss more with you after this presentation, master alchemist!

" One of the lizardmen alchemists requested.

"As will I!

" Another added.

"Enough. Master Alchemist... Please grace us with your knowledge. Champion Reptilia. Please grace the presence of Master Alchemist and release your force energy.

"

"Yes, Commander.

" The beautiful lizard princess bowed.

"Wow! Champion Reptilia is so beautiful! Are you single, master Champion?

" Kyros was curious and asked.

Several Captains and Champions raised their eyebrows at the comment that this youth made.

The princess frowned at the audacious comment.

"Master Alchemist. While I respect your knowledge, I would humbly request to keep that part of my life private.

"

"Oh! I'm sorry if I offended you. But I have to ask this so I can know the pure life energy in you. If you are a virgin, it's double the amount. So I need to know how much life energy goes in so I can clear up those clumps.

" Kyros gave an innocent smile.

But everyone froze as they heard those words.

"Someone as beautiful as you must have had countless partners here. You could easily pick any man and take him, right?

" Kyros asked again, maintaining his innocent expression.

The look on Gojirrah's shocked face turned to horror.

"What... did you say?

" Reptilia asked.

"I'm asking if you've been sleeping with any of these men. And I want to know how many. If you have a rather active lifestyle, it makes using you quite pointless, and I will need a less beautiful lizard lady to help me. You know... One that is isn't a hot-blooded lizard.

" Kyros answered again.

Taunt activated.

Reptilia gritted her teeth.

"Is... master alchemist making an unreasonable assumption?

" She asked.

"No. Now that I think about it... You do exude a lot of Yang energy. You must have a lot of things to do. Oh well. I'll look for two captains that aren't as adventurous as you are, if you know what I mean. As for you, Begone THOT!

" Kyros chuckled.

"DIE!

" Reptilia roared angrily.

The Commander moved with great speed and lunged to block the strike that he knew Reptalai would do to the child.

BOOM!

"Champion Reptilia! Calm down!

" The Commander shouted.

"She probably can't. There is too much Yang energy, as I thought. The fact that mere words easily trigger her means she has been sleeping around with many men. I'd say three a day.

" Kyros sniggered.

"You! I'll kill you!

" Reptilia shouted as she began to wield her powerful attacks.

But the Commander continued to block the attacks.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Entropy. I thought so. And Commander Komodo has Earth as I thought so.

" Kyros assessed the elemental affinity of the two.

"My Lord... If I may ask...

" Gojirrah sent a message.

"I will be creating potent poison energy that can paralyze everyone here for a short time. The problem is that we have to run away with Reptilia. And so, I need to create a poison that can paralyze her. But with her strength, she could easily resist various poisons. But now, I know her power and affinity. So I just need to create an extremely potent poison for Reptilia. After this show of mine, we will be escaping.

"

Gojirrah was stunned. He didn't expect things to progress so fast that Kyros was already planning how to escape.

"So your words against her...

"

"It's all to let me gauge her strength and prepare a poison just for her.

"

"Then is she a...?

"

"A what?

"

"Erm... Are your claims about her hobbies true?

"

"What? Of course not! I was taunting her! Man, you sure are a perverted lizard!

"

Gojirrah was shocked at Kyros's shamelessness.

"You're the one who asked me to sleep with the wives of champions...' Gojirrah grumbled.

"Right now, I just have to weaken her.

" Kyros ignored Gojirrah and watched the battle. Finally, an opening appeared.

Kyros slammed his arm on the Energy Conversion Circle and pretended to channel energy. But what he did was harness a bit of dark energy and activated the powers of Mysterion, and shot a beam of light towards Reptilia.

The timing itself was perfect. Reptilia was just knocked back from an attack and could not harness any Force energy.

BOOM!

"Ahhhh!

" Reptilia gave off a faint cry.

"You insolent newt! I asked you innocently, and you dare disgrace this chamber of honor?!

" Kyros exploded in anger.

Everyone was stunned at the attack.

Kyros continued to hold on to the circle as powerful light energy covered him,

"Stand up, little girl, and offer your energy! I just purged the death energy out of you.

" Kyros shouted as he dispersed the energy.

There was total silence. Even the Commander was amazed at the pure, holy power that Kyros revealed.
