In a manner relating to or characteristic of alchemy; through mysterious or seemingly magical transformative processes.
From 'alchemical' plus the adverb-forming suffix '-ly.' The layering of suffixes (alchemy → alchemic → alchemical → alchemically) shows how English builds complexity from a root concept.
The suffix chain '-ical-ly' is just English being efficient—we stack suffixes to add layers of meaning, turning one Arabic root ('al-kimiya') into a word that describes entire processes and philosophies.
