Chapter 317 Job Benefits
It wasn\'t that there wasn\'t anything for me to do as they were a few goals I still had to achieve.
What I saw as a problem was that wasn\'t any real goal I could tag as a main one that was actually very crucial apart from the one that I had to generate enough gold coins to message my family and know about their situation.
The thing was that even with this goal, I believed that as long as nothing really unexpected happens that could affect me big time, I was sure that I was eventually going to be able to generate enough gold coins to message my family through various actions including exchanging gems and selling my pills.
This goal of mine was eventually going to get done someday so while it was very crucial, I needed something on the same level that would keep on a particular lane instead of having to always sidetrack and just go with the flow.
This thought alone was uncomfortable to think about.
When I first learnt about jobs and ranks, my goal was to evolve to the next rank and get stronger and when the black orb upgraded my job to a unique one, I had to work really hard with a limited amount of time available to me and because I did not want to lose a job that might potentially be the best thing that might happen in this new world of mine but now that I had finally gotten the job, the drive to do anything was not there.
Apart from lacking the drive, I also did not have anything like a goal similar to completing my job requirements.
In any case, although I saw this as a problem, it was not something I could rush or have just because I wanted it so only time will tell. I\'ll leave these things to the future and just focus on what I can do now.
But...….What do I do now?
Hmmm.
\'I suppose I can try out the benefits that came with my job and concoct a pill now\', I thought and after thinking about it for a while, I stood up and immediately started to make preparations.
Preparations might make it sound like a lot was happening but it was actually just me bringing out my cauldron from the storage ring and several wooden bottles to keep my pills when they are concocted.
After doing these and laying the wooden bottles I had brought from my storage ring on one of the tables I had selected, I called out the primordial chronicle in my head and went to the general sub-option of the store section.
This was where I was going to buy the materials to concoct the pill I was going to make but now I had to choose which pill to make.
I could either continue to make the pills I\'ve been making before which were the unranked pills or I could try my hand at making a ranked pill.
Either way, I was going to be able to test out the benefits that came with my job regardless of the rank of the pill I was going to concoct.
After a while of thinking, I decided to just do both as I had quite a lot of time to do whatever I wanted in the alternate dimension.
After deciding to make both unranked and ranked pills, I decided to start with the unranked pills I could concoct which were the basic health, mana, stamina and food pills.
I had never tried my hands at concocting a rank 1 pill so the one I would end up concocting will have to wait for later when I finally decide on which rank 1 pill to make after this session but first, I will try out the effect of my job with concocting unranked pills.
As I thought of these things, I brought multiple materials for the unranked pills I wanted to concoct.
I made it surplus so the situation where I might need a herb during the concocting process but can have it will not happen.
After doing this for each of the unranked pills I was going to concoct, I dismissed the store section and went back to the status page.
I was about to completely dismiss the panel in front of me when my eye landed on my job section and after pondering for a while, I decided to check it out again.

[Alchemist lord[Unique Grade Job]],
An Alchemist who is unique among Alchemists.
Those with this job have;
*A 100% success rate in producing unranked items and high-purity unranked pills.
*A 70% success rate when creating Rank 1 items and high-purity Rank 1 pill.
*A success rate of 2% to 30% when making high-purity Rank 2 pills and producing Rank 2 items.
*A broad knowledge base of unranked items to Rank 4.
....
From my past assumptions and based on what I can see, it appears that I would find it simple to create unranked high-purity pills.
Basically, the 100% success rate meant there was not possible for me to fail at ever making an unranked pill, how this was possible was something I was aware of but remembering the fact I don\'t bother to overthink about these kinds of stuff like this in the first place, I was able to accept this easily no matter how strange it was.
However, it didn\'t take long for me to understand what the primordial chronicle meant by a 100% success rate when I finally started to make the pills.
Basically, everything just felt easier than before.
The whole concocting process just made more sense as I found my body and mana moving in sync as the pills took shape.
Everything just felt so in control as I was able to concoct as many as 7 pills from a single set of materials that would have been enough for five at most.
The most impressive thing was the purity level of the pills when I had finished concocting them.
Basically, every unranked pill I concocted was at least 85% pure from impurities.
The whole thing just felt so unreal because of how easy everything appeared.
I knew the effects that came with my job were definitely working but I was still suspicious of if it was truly the one doing everything and maybe it perhaps just increased my success rate at making high-purity pills and pills in general rather than making it that I could never fail at concocting an unranked pill.
When this thought came, I decided to put it to the test by purposing concocting a pill in an unserious state and unexpectedly no matter how hard I tried to purposely fail, my body and just somehow moves in a way that makes it impossible for me to fail at making the pill.
It was like I was being guided by an unknown force.
If this was only the case for the basic health pill which was the one I could concoct with the highest purity among all the unranked pills I concoct before evolving, then I would have found things reasonable but even the basic mana pill that was the worst among all of them somehow turned out to be my best with a purity of at least 80% every time I concoct it.
Although it was very strange, it was very welcomed as it just assisted me by making concocting pills easier for me.
Since the benefit of my job made concocting pills easier for me, I used this to make a lot of pills that my wooden reserves depleted.
In the end, I had to buy more and after several hours of making another bunk of unranked pills, I placed all the pills I made in the shop for sale.
I did not bother to wait for the first sale as I dismissed the shop panel and made my way to the general sub-option instead.
It was finally time to make a ranked pill for the first time.
