Chapter 16: Iceflame Potion Recipe

Victorious after their battle with the Level 10 Azuma Bear, Kulas and Snow Flower shared a moment of excitement.

"We really hit the jackpot this time," Kulas exclaimed, his voice brimming with enthusiasm.

Snow Flower couldn't help but join in the excitement, "Your luck seems to be rubbing off on me."

Together, they began sorting through the loot that the fearsome boss had dropped, and Kulas generously shared the spoils with Snow Flower.

Among the loot were:

1. Level 10 Lightsaber (Gold, Sword)

Kulas chose the Level 10 Lightsaber and the Level 8 Ring of Nothingness, while the rest of the equipment went to Snow Flower.

Equipping the Ring of Nothingness, Kulas felt his stats surge once again:

Kulas's Stats:

HP: 1400

Mana: 2000

Strength: 40

Agility: 100

Intelligence: 90

Stamina: 60

His attack damage reached a staggering 1000, with the potential for critical hits to deal triple damage. Kulas's unique class as a magic swordsman allowed him to synergize his strength and intelligence for devastating damage.

His Lightning Edge also gained power as it leveled up to 8:

Attack Damage: 800-1000

Attack Speed: 1.5 attacks per second

The loot also included valuable crafting designs and alchemical recipes:

Level 10 War Vanguard (Bronze Shield)

Strength: 30

Alchemy Recipes:

Basic Stamina Potion Recipe (Basic Potion)

Restores 10% stamina every second for 10 seconds.

Iceflame Potion Recipe (Intermediate Potion)

Recovers 20% of HP and mana every second for 5 seconds.

Kulas's eyes lit up when he saw the Iceflame Potion Recipe. Snow Flower playfully teased him, making him nervous as he asked for her permission to take both alchemical recipes.

"You're getting the Lightsaber and two recipes? Quite the opportunist, aren't you?" Snow Flower teased, her playful demeanor evident.

Kulas's nerves got the better of him, but Snow Flower conceded, "Alright, you can have them, but remember, you owe me a favor."

Kulas grinned, "Deal! Count on me whenever you need help."

With the loot distributed, Snow Flower claimed the forging designs and materials while Kulas obtained the alchemy herbs.

As they celebrated their victory, Kulas's communicator buzzed. It was KingM, inviting him to join for dungeon runs.

"I'm busy right now, KingM. I'm with someone," Kulas responded with a chuckle.

Curious, KingM asked, "Who's that someone?"

Kulas sent a picture of Snow Flower, prompting KingM's shocked reaction.

After the conversation, Kulas turned to Snow Flower, who asked about the call.

"It's my friend, KingM. He's envious that I'm with the Snow Goddess," Kulas replied with a grin.

Snow Flower blushed slightly but quickly hid it.

Amused, Kulas teased, "Don't worry, I didn't tell him your real name."

As they bantered, the sun began to set, prompting Snow Flower to suggest heading back to the city.

"Yeah, you're right. Let's head back," Kulas agreed.

With a farewell, they activated a recall scroll to return to Everwing City, ending another eventful day in the virtual world.
