His mega cauldron sounds perfect for making beer, maybe its time villy shared some special alchemy recipies ;)
Tristin S Alderson
THAT WAS MY FIRST THOUGHT TOO
Cypha
Okay now we need a Duskleafe and Viper perspective. :)
Duck
Imagine how much faster he would have been able to get those gates

Tftc Zog!

I was thinking maybe it would also take more time to do it this way because there is just a lot more to control maybe not harder but takes longer
Roy
Thanks for the chapter Zogarth, love the way you flesh out the world you've created!
Jason
I feel like the math is off, because a cauldron only 2x the size in each dimension would yield up to 80/batch, and Jake should be providing more than just a few thousand at a time to Miranda…. (Nitpick, I know)
Jan
Most readers - me included - seem to enjoy the style of the author that gives enough flavor to the world for it to be immersible. It would be a shame if all this world-building would go to waste for the sake of “forced progress”.
JW Saxby
😂😂 That was great 👍🏼 was hoping for some soulflame experimentations just like this 🍻 Tftc

Author, could you cut down on the filler and get to the point? I mean, we're already so many chapters in and the protagonist still hasn't arrived in Class B.
Ty Cooper
I am so looking forward to Minaga's reaction
Zogarth
Fix sutff
Brian Block
He upgraded a skill and a storyline that has been going on since the end of nevermore was completed. In addition to upgrading a skill , it's one of the things that has been on his list to complete before he evolved to B grade for a couple hundred chapters. Do you know what fluff means?
ET
Soooo much fluff. I practically skipped the last 2 chapters.
Carl Never
I did not see the cauldron coming haha brilliant
Bookreader97
Soul flame could be great if he is ever trapped/imprisoned and his storage rings are taken. Not only could he still craft (assuming he can find materials) he can also make stable weapons than use his arms of man ability (can’t remember what it’s called)
heltok
Making mega batches of potions must have given him some levels, enough for B grade?
Xien
Shovels-ful?
Ramadasa Butler
I can see jake performing alchemy in front of the gates of enlightenment when he can't figure out what he is doing wrong or trying to upgrader a potion or poison.
Rewdan
Cheer’s Zogarth thanks for the chapter. Great way to start the week
brjenness
I wouldn't complain if next time sylphy showed up, the soul flame came out to say hi in bird form. Definitely wouldn't complain if soulflame learns to fight from sylphy
A Flashy BR
Tyftc!!
Ray Light
Probably a small viewpoint in the next chapter about how absurd his soulflame actually is and that they see the way it'll develop later on while Jake is still oblivious.

Joshua Little
Thanks for the chapter.
Rob Lyon
With all of the little one-year time time skips we've had he should almost be an adult if not a full grown adult by now
Xander
TFTC :) Welcome back peeps :) B grade cliff for Chrissy it seems :D Suggested edits: "hidden affinities had *a chance* to sneak in and pollute the material." Ditch these they are unecessary and sound odd here. "but in *wide* strokes" the usual phrase is "broad strokes" "Jake’s soul and *level* of control over it weren’t at a *level* others could relate to" repetive. I suggest changing the first to "degree" to avoid this. "while giving him more *intricate* control. " this sounds odd in my head maybe "delicate" instead? Might just be me.
ThatGuy
I want an update on Jake’s nephew. That kid has to be getting older now. Isn’t he close to being the age to start leveling? Surely he’s going to want to?
Thekoopa20
Just without the led poisoning I guess
Josie
He just needs to take a page from Villy's book and think of people as alchemical ingredients. Once he gets that concept down, he can have lots of fun melting everyone in combat
John Durrett
Turn Soul Flames into arrow heads, pepper an enemy with them, remotely build them into a cauldron inside enemy body, break down enemies body into a bane poison specialized for that enemy. Boom!
Christopher Jones
Yeah, I could even see him being offered a skill to summon a cauldron from his own soulflame. He obviously wouldn't take it of course, unless it offers something unique.
Christopher Jones
I can't see him do it in the middle of a fight because I doubt anything he could obtain would have any significant records within, much less have the time to brew. As part of a long term hunt though, I could see it becoming an option. There would still need to be some weird circumstances to get a high record material from his target though.
PWeygandt
I hope that Jakes profession morphs with his rise to B-grade. With his skill to make Class/Profession Grimoire's, I would love to see his Heretic-Chosen profession fully changes into his own unique one that is based around his Affinity, creating his own "Alchemist of the Primal Hunter". I doubt that would be the name but still. Then maybe his nephew could do that for a profession and follow Caleb with his class
John Durrett
Watch it advance into Phoenix Fire Bird or something.
John Durrett
For more complex rituals he will be but for potions its not necessary to bring out the smelly pot any longer.
Anomander_Rake
Cool idea!
Stephen
Can't wait till we see him Crafting bane poison in the middle of a fight. Using ingredients from the target of the hunt. To make a "This Person" bane poison.
Gregory Schmitt
Kinda wish this happened at the end of the chapter too lol
Eden
So. Jakes flame is the teflon of the soulflame world heh
Beckendwarf
I’m very interested to see what Villy and Duskleaf think about his flame, and his Soulflame Mega Cauldron
Gregory Schmitt
definitely could've used some divine commentary in this chapter lol, I hope we get some next chapter
Sean McClain
I bet duskleaf has a method of having an alchemy flame break down active energies as well. Regardless, I assume in B grade Jake's nexf big learning will be runes/sigils/scripts so he can eventually add them to his temporary stable arcane barriers to strengthen them and add them to this arcane flame cauldron.
Trixar
I can already imagine the shock on duskleafs face
Luke Scheffe
I’m thinking Jake will be offered some variant of [Soulflame Alchemist] on evolving. While it’s a relatively recent development, it’s a pretty massive record shift opportunity.
brjenness
how? why?
brjenness
breaching walls.
Josie
Hmm. Well if nothing else, Jake can engulf himself and his immediate surroundings in Flame during combat and use that visual obstruction to slip back into his sneak mode?
Aritra Gupta

PatienceHoney
Hopefully she will tell the dunce how wrong he is about his soulflame not making a good weapon... I mean... it's a cauldron...
brjenness
duskleaf: ask him how he's doing that. ask him. villy: nah, let's see what else he tries before we tell him he's doing something impossible. duskleaf: good idea, master.
gaetan vitrac
Next palate upgrade maybe ?
gaetan vitrac
Since the soulflame is in his soul, would he be able to create a cauldron in his soul and "passively" make alchemy at all times ?
Joe Foreman
I want to see villies reaction worth duskleaf
Andyr98
This is very much zogarth answering a bunch of questions of what it can and can't do
GeneticSloth
tftc!
Gerrard Vincent
I knew he'd use it like that.
blucube 14
Thanks for the chapter!
Alexandre8901
Mee too!!!! Haha can’t wait for the Villy Duskleaf commentary talk!! 😏
Josie
So it works on passive energy.. he should definitely test it on Carmen's runes as she has the best passive defense around
ABTelford
Hehe. I can imagine Villy popping in to see Dudkleaf and say, “hey, check out what Jake is doing!” And duskleaf will look puzzled and say “what?” And Villy will be all “I know right? Haha!” 😁
tigerfishie
TYFTC!! phenomenal vision of Jake grinning while adding ingredients, I love it 🙌

I like to think Duskleaf immediately starts trying it lol

Thank you for the chapter
BumAssBumAss
I think that while Jake's soul flame is ineffective against things with other intent, his soul flame can boost his arcane awakening and other skills that operate according to Jake's own will.
Kyle Davis
“ By going big or going home... and seeing as he was already home, it was an absolutely flawless plan” this is now one of my favorite quotes. Tyftc! Keep it rolling Zoggy!
Sean
I wonder if he should just create a lining inside the cauldron like an enamel coated cast iron pot or something. Wouldn’t that be easier and still get all of the benefits?
Rodney
Is this Jake's introduction to becoming a cauldron King one of those immortals who refines people and their essence for their advancement. Lol
Drana :D
I wonder how villy would react to this
Fyrtue
I see that as a point of study he might do in B grade. Learning more about those formations and conceptually how/why they help with alchemy should help him advance his craft.
Corvid
Jake wanted a combat cauldron at one point, now he has one. Just yeetus cauldron deletus
Koby
I call it that the soulflame would become a cauldron! Somebody pay me lol
Arezoo Kashefi
Tftc ok this was very silly and funny. 😂
Kaladin
Wonder if sylphy is going to hate this one as well? Any idea if he can just get a formation master to inscribe the required cauldron formations onto his soulflame or if that needs to happen during the forging process?
dash w
Thanks for the chappy, but what about using that water reservoir thing that pumps water from the lake to make even larger batches like how Villy times a lake into a healing potion.
Loose Goose
I’m glad someone else agrees. I’ve only read the title or skimmed the chapter for 2 weeks now.

I wonder if the soulflame could break down labyrinth walls and change Jake's dungeon runs from cheat-like to cheat-actual.
Ramadasa Butler
I agree

Tftc hilarious
Indevan Jones
I want an episode where they have a giant Hotpot/potluck using that thing....don't know why but I do.
Georgia Guy-Williams
Now I just want him to learn the cauldron formations so he can imbed them in his soul flame creations
Dante
The problem is those are all types of actively controlled mana with intent (aside from the terrain) so he wouldn't be able to change it. Especially projectiles and armor would absolutely have intent in them.
Cory S.
Thank you for the chapter but I want to pull my hair out I’m so eager for his upgrade to B-grade.
Jelani Willock
The soul flame just being green lantern is funny 😂

Use soul flame cauldron for combat, problem solved. Many concussions.
Episode 19
Tftc Zog casually rewriting how flames work 😂
Jan
Why did I instantly think of making the crystalline Soulflame into a big ass hammer and whoop people with it like in a cartoon? 😄
Phoenixdrop
Ah Jake you crazy bastard welp I think we know what skill will be on offer during his first skill selection of B grade in his profession because that definitely seems skill worthy you know after some refinement

The flame has huge combat application, he can use it to change the terrrain, destroy projectiles, armor and physical barriers. He might be able to use it to help with escaping by making a tunnel. (This way he can save wings for later). Also he might be able to one shot a plant. He probably could use it to destroy energy from attacks that are stopping him from healing or something, although pallet can do that to even if Jake has not realize tharealize it.
