I Want to Be an Alchemist

Markus, a typical teenage boy with a love for video games and a lack of interest in academia, finds himself at a loss when faced with an assignment requiring him to write about his future career. Visiting the library for inspiration (And a place to sleep) he picks up a book on alchemy, assuming it is some sort of joke. Little does he know, alchemy is far from a mere myth, and the book he holds in his hands contains detailed explanations and step-by-step guides to transforming metals and materials. With growing fascination, Markus embarks on a journey of knowledge and power, while simultaneously grappling with the challenges presented by his everyday life.
