Someone's Ascending

Ten times.

Lith failed a total of ten times to make the [Soul Cleanser] pill.

At the eleventh time when he succeeded, he couldn't celebrate or rejoice as Lizbeth was close to finishing her [Smooth Foot] pill.

It was over for Lith from the get go if Lizbeth took things seriously, but with her doing things at her pace, he got a chance to learn, adapt, and master some of the basics of alchemy.

"Huff… huff…"

Lith breathed heavily as he sat on the ground with four pills in his hands.

Lizbeth walked over to him with a shiny silver pill and crouched down to be at Lith's level.

Her gaze fell on the four pills in his hands and sniffing them, she said, "I can't believe you could make something so potent in such a short time. That too four of them."

Initially, Lizbeth did not believe that her God was good at alchemy like her. It was fine to not excel in all fields, but he proved to her that he could do anything if he wanted to.
