After all, even useful potions carried side effects. Take the Stamina Booster, for example: while it replenished energy effectively, it didn't soothe the body, and over time, the body would still give out if overused.
It also didn't help the mind; mental strain persisted even as stamina was restored. By carefully refining recipes, Kisha could avoid these pitfalls and create something far superior.
This kind of side effect was minor, but there were more serious ones she could modify. By doing so, she could increase her prices even further.
As for other alchemists, it would become much harder for them to decipher her recipes; they wouldn't even realize she had combined two different techniques to craft her pills and potions.
This meant she could be completely worry-free about anyone trying to replicate her work. It was definitely worth celebrating, a small but significant milestone on her path to becoming stronger and wealthier.
