Chapter 1981: New Floors (Part 3)

"The real Davross and crystals are still respectively in the Crucible and the Mines. The Workshop uses them as blueprints and can't exceed their quantity." Lith said.

"How is this amazing?" Protector scratched his chin in confusion. "I mean, sure, it's good for practice, but it has little practical use."

"You wolfhead!" Salaark said in outrage. "This is a miracle of magic that borders on Creation Magic. Thanks to the Workshop, even without my help Lith and Solus can now experiment with their techniques as many times as they want without losing a single ingredient.

"Thanks to this place, no matter how crazy or risky an experiment is, there will be no consequence because nothing inside here is real."

"It's actually even better, Grandma." Lith offered her biscuits and hot chocolate to sweeten the blow. "Until this moment, I couldn't use powerful ingredients like Dragon's organs or the plants I received from the Dryads without a recipe.

"Your Creation Magic allows me to reuse those that end up in a failed but complete piece, but cannot recover an ingredient that has been destroyed due to the Forgemastering energies going awry or to a faulty crafting method.

"With the Workshop, instead, I can experiment every kind of enchantment with my ingredients and discover what element or combination of elements they are more attuned with."

"I can do that with Creation Magic as well." Salaark said in-between mouthfuls.

"That's because you can revert the consequences of a failed experiment the moment something goes wrong whereas I can only bring you the final results. I can't ask you to spend hours looking after me in case I make a mistake.

"I believe that the Workshop is the reason Menadion managed to Forgemaster so many masterpieces and research so many branches of magic. She could experiment until she found the perfect combination of materials and technique and now we can do the same." Lith said.

"Wait a second." The Guardian furrowed her brows. "If you had your own version of Creation Magic, why do you keep coming to me to remove imprints and enchantments?"

"Because I needed to use both the replicas and the real ingredients to make sure of how accurate the Workshop's ability to reproduce magical properties is and because I'm shamelessly trying to learn Creation Magic from you." He replied.

"Cheeky brat!" Salaark pinched his cheek, laughing. "Extra points for your sincerity. I knew that you have the Eyes and I was counting on you using them to give Creation Magic a go. This was a low blow, though.

"I expect to be compensated for my time and my stolen lessons."

"If there's something you need, Grandma, all you have to do is ask." Lith gave her a deep bow, knowing how much deep is respect for Salaark was.

She had taken care of him and his family for all that time without asking anything in return. She had lessened the burden on his father's sanity, sparing Raaz the trauma of having to live a single minute without his limbs.

She had taken care of the Verhens like her own, giving Lith a safe haven to recover from the pain Meln had inflicted upon him and a place where to enjoy his honeymoon.
