Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time

In order to create 100 of the toilets equipped with a magic device that Papek begged him for, Takumi visits the Mulan Company to procure help. After requesting "someone to the manage the mansion" and "someone capable of fighting and protecting me", Takumi meets a beautiful human girl, Maria, and a beautiful elf, Sofia.

Takumi informs Maria and Sofia that he'd like to travel, so he registers them both with the Adventurer's Guild and forms an official party. After Takumi sends some of the guild's troublemakers packing, he's approached by the Guild Master and advised to quickly rank up his party, so the three head out together on a Quest to defeat goblins.

Takumi wants to upgrade their gear for their journey, so he seeks out mythril and admantite ores. After consulting with the Adventurer's Guild, he accepts Quests to defeat monsters, gather Treant Wood, and escort a miner to excavate the ores. He plans to set out in three days time with the blacksmith, Dgambo.

Word of Takumi's Purification magic device has reached the Holy Empire of Sidonia, and they demand that the Kingdom of Barcula hand over Takumi, but they refuse.

After welcoming the Drake Horse, Camellia, to his party, Takumi redoubles his efforts to build his carriage. Sofia starts to worry as he works with fervor and refuses to rest. The carriage is safely completed and they begin their journey to the Royal Capital with Marquis Godwin on board.

After welcoming Reyva to their group, they complete the carriage to be offered to the king of Barcula.

Takumi strengthens his defenses by creating a barrier and taming an Iron Golem named Titan, while the Emperor temporarily leaves him alone to focus on summoning heroes, and Nolyn fears the Church of Divine Light may inadvertently manifest an evil goddess.

Takumi's group challenges the dungeon, Forest of the Beast King, and strengthens their bonds. Around that time Marquis Godwin consults with Takumi, and asks him to help create a pioneer village in the undeveloped lands to the south of his domain in order to secure a place for the refugees from a deserted village nearby.

Máni joins the Wings of Nolyn as they build the fortress town of Wedgefort, which grows more prosperous by the day. However, the Holy Empire of Sidonia activates their Hero Summoning, which causes the mana in the region to fluctuate, increasing the strength of the monsters outside the fortress' ramparts.

Wedgefort is assaulted by a horde of monsters, and word of the emergency reaches Takumi. The Wings of Nolyn, Lion Fang, and Crimson Rose accept the Quest, and together the three parties fend off the assault, but the knights they fought alongside mention something concerning.
