HP: Spirit Talker

I suppose they enjoyed my gratitude and will continue to do so. Besides, it would divert the Mori couple's keen attention away from me. I poured the rest of the night into special vials and sealed them in stasis, for the potion was excellent (ritual analysis confirmed it) and there was nothing like it in the newer works.

The usual charms, aphrodisiacs, and all sorts of weak "fertility" potions are incapable of inflaming a centuries-old old man and thoroughly screwing a young mare with a stable result and bypassing any curses and jinxes. So it's criminal to make such a composition. Maybe, but no, I will definitely take it and boil a few more three pots, just in case.

Even ordinary simpletons would give their right arm for such a thing, let alone mages... Later, I actually brewed two more cauldrons of Night, and the whole potion was sealed in a special casket created by the spirits and sealed with an artifact secret. For the future.

The quartz sphere was a little over half a meter in diameter, with sixteen control crystals at the equator and power crystals at the poles. The hieroglyphs of the seals, with four rings of black symbols, were placed in strict alignment with each other, equidistant from the equator at the top and bottom of the sphere.

 The sphere itself was strong, with a wall thickness of about five centimeters, resting on four low spherical supports. Almost at the bottom, at the very bottom of the ring of symbols, there were windows for the input of raw materials for the crystal, and, in fact, the bathtub itself on which the final product is formed.

I wanted to watch the process inside with a transparent window, but that would have weakened the structure, so I used an illusion that transmits a live image from inside at the will of the operator. I think you can do even better, but I do not have the mind to find the mistakes, besides, when I put it into operation for the first time, I did not find any disadvantages, the spherical furnace fully justified its creation — reduced the time of crystal growth more than twice.

Thinking more about further modernization, I admitted that I am satisfied with everything, and spit on it — I have other things to do than to create the ideal, besides, Mori has twice as bad, and they do not complain! Besides, my improvements have made it easier for me to adjust the settings, so the first batch of crystals came out not with twelve facets, but with twice as many, which greatly improves their quality.

In short, I finished the orb and soldered it to me, so even if someone steals it, all they will get after firing it is a beautiful explosion with many striking elements. With all my thoughts and worries, I somehow missed the moment when my teacher type was chased off the island.

 Goro-san told me that it wasn't just me that got him kicked off the island. This person was found to be teaching all of his students to the level of "don't care," even though he is a very strong master himself. When he was arrested, he made an emotional speech about it, saying, "I broke through and studied myself, so let these mediocre people do it for themselves!

I don't want to give my art for free!", which earned him a punishment. The fact is that he signed serious contracts for training, but ignored his duties, for which he paid the price: he was cut off from magic, which robbed him of almost half of what he was capable of before.

Now his ceiling is a private dojo in the world of ordinary people, and even there he has not the best reputation. Well, it's his own fault, and he deserves it. And now I train by myself, because there are no free masters who agree to move to the islands, and I have neither time nor opportunity to go to someone else.

I had some thoughts to postpone the training and concentrate more on mining gems and exploring dungeons, but the memory of the disgruntled Sugawara-sensei was enough to motivate me, and I honestly practiced what I knew.
