On the Storm Continent, out of a hundred dwarves, there would be an alchemist; on the other hand, out of ten thousand dwarves, it was very difficult to find a pharmacist.
Dwarves had a natural passion for alchemy, but only a few dwarves engaged in pharmaceutical research.
Before the battle between gods and devils, on the Storm Continent, all the potions used by the dwarves were purchased from humans or elves. However, as the conflicts between the various races intensified after the war between the gods and devils, all races except the human beings became isolated from the outside world. The dwarves had to study pharmaceutics on their own in order to fulfill the needs of their own people.
The dwarves had been exposed to pharmaceutics for only a very short time compared with humans and elves.
In the past, dwarves relied on supplies of potions purchased from other races, but after their isolation, dwarves did not even have a minimal formula. They could only awkwardly take the potions they bought in the past to study the various herbs and proportions in the potion.
Ignorant fumbling about consumed thousands of years of the dwarves’ lives, and it made the alchemy-loving dwarves give up alchemy to learn potions instead. This was an extremely difficult problem.
The life expectancy of the dwarves was far less than that of the elves and dragons; they only lived for a few hundred years. It had been many years since the battle between gods and devils, and the kings of the dwarves had changed along with the sun and the moon.
But every king of the dwarves spent a lot of effort encouraging the study of pharmaceutics.
The dwarves never lack good alchemists. What they really lacked were powerful pharmacists.
Therefore, no matter which king, on the day they ascended to the throne, they would announce all kinds of administrations that encouraged pharmaceutics, and pharmacists were treated much better than alchemists among dwarves.
Even so, there was only one pharmacist for every hundred alchemists.
Among them, there were many pharmacist apprentices who could not even make a complete potion.
Pharmacists were well-paid, but dwarves still could not extinguish their yearning for alchemy; in addition, many alchemists looked down on pharmacists.
It was because pharmacists had the best treatment on this Storm Continent, yet the potions they made had not gotten any better for many years.
In Puko’s, the Alchemist Guild was just across from the Pharmacist Guild.
"Yoyoyo. Who are these? Oh, it’s the herd of moths of the Pharmacist Guild! You take a month to make such a potion? Really, such a waste of the generous treatment given by our king." The dwarves who came out of the Alchemist Guild looked scornfully at the dwarves who came out of the Pharmacist Guild.
The dwarves, holding a pile of crystal clear bottles of potions in their arms, were going to the pharmacy area in Puko’s.
"If I may say, if our king had given us alchemists such good treatment, we would have already made a high-level mechanical puppet." A group of alchemists standing at the entrance to their guild spoke up in a sour tone.
The pharmacists merely looked at the alchemists with very calm expressions.
They had long been accustomed to the taunts from the alchemists. In Storm Continent, the alchemists greatly outnumbered the pharmacists, but the treatment of the latter was a hundred times better than that of the former. This made the two occupations that were already disagreeable towards each other become more and more incompatible.
