Did you buy them or did you only give the materials for the alchemist?
Also, they should be in your "Consumables" part of the inventory.

So, to the 1st bit, yes, there is more character development for both of them, and you get to find out why they're evil, but also various details about their overall circumstances that help explain who they are. It takes a while though.
I managed to get Victory A after playing for 300-something days and messing around quite a bit. It was my first playthrough and I knew fuck and all about the game. XD If you want to beat the game without Walkthroughs or checking anything at all on the wikipedia and whatnot, then it's important to pay very close attention to the stuff it tells you. Also, don't worry too much about getting a high score. There's some deals where getting a bit of Lewdness and Corruption is totally worth it (like the Alchemist discount which can let you save up tons of money in the long run, as a super early example) then there's deals which are NOT worth it under any circumstances. Most of those show up later in the game. Save often and don't be afraid to save-scum.
I say the last bit because there's one specific bit of Information that Aura would have, but the player doesn't, which affects decisions a lot. That's monster group compositions. Since you don't know what composition any given group has, you pretty much never know for sure if you should or shouldn't engage with one at any given time.
As for normal monsters. No. You don't really get anything from killing normal monsters outside of the specific cases where they drop gold, like goblins, ogres, whatever. As such, sometimes, you might want to kill normal monsters simply to pad up your gold count even by the little scraps you get from those monsters. Everything is essentially a limited resource in SK Aura, and the gold from certain monster types does add up quite a bit if you have the time to hunt them all down efficiently.

I'm not going to try to guess how hard unlocking Victory A blind will be for you because I have seen, on one hand, people who claim that the game is nearly impossible on story mode and, on the other side of the scales, an individual complaining that every boss was so easy that they never felt the need to use the remove collar ability on a purity run. My understanding is that if you're doing your best to keep Aura away from getting too corrupted in Roya then it should be pretty easy to stay on the Victory A path as long as Aura still has a good relationship with George. If you do end up letting Aura run wild in Roya then it's harder, but advice on what to do/avoid would involve spoilers for the second half of the game.
The above replies covered most of what I would say, but I do have a couple things to add. Keep at least a few backup saves at what feel like major milestone/story events so that you don't potentially lock yourself into a crappy situation. The other point I'd mention is that, occasionally, enemies in a zone dropping loot is a sign that you should clear the zone. For example, once you kill all the goblins in the first section of the forest, the apple merchant restocks additional apples. The more important takeaway is kinda the reverse though. (unless I have somehow blanked something from my memory) Zones where enemies don't have loot drops won't reward you for clearing the zone, so its usually best to avoid as many fights there as possible.
General tips... hmm...

I think that one increases your fire resist + Magic defense. Effective for opponents who likes to use fire attacks.

On top of what p23rklo said, you also get protection from fire when you go into the volcanic area next to Mountainreach. But until then, it mostly helps against fire damage and bonus magic defence.

If you were asking about enhance spells in general, rather than water skin specifically, there are two main things. You can only have one enhance spell active at a time. Also, you can activate that one spell from the skill menu and it will reduce your maximum MP by the cost of the spell until you turn it off, but you will constantly benefit from the spell at no additional cost until you turn it off.
Accidentally repeatedly toggling an enhance spell on and off is also a good way to drain your entire MP pool.
Which masturbation event? There's like 8 of them...
Use your clear gem to check your earth events.
So you haven't done the one that unlocks Rising Heat/Hidden Desires III? Got it.
Moving along.

Nah, I think part of the issue is it would be nearly impossible to make "a walkthrough" because there are too many distinct ways to play the game. You can try to optimize unlocking lewd scenes, you can try to optimize earning victory points, you can try to optimize power gained from lewd actions, or you can wander from location to location and do your own thing. There is an incredibly detailed guide on steam that goes over a bunch of useful mechanics and demonstrates how much you can get done on the first day though. The wiki also has quite a bit of information.
An issue with a lewd scene walkthrough would be that the ending has branching decision based outcomes, so routing out every possible variant of endings and getting every lewd scene might be best done over multiple playthroughs or involve multiple checkpoints, which could be a pain to route out. I don't envy anybody undertaking such a task. Especially since the 1.1 release is going to be the start of additional bad ending paths and extra mental changes that will complicate it further.

From what I gather, the first bad ending seems to be the one with Arwin. Which is the first serious boss fight in the game outside of the prologue.

Then just bring back the old waltheough brother, even if it wasn't fully accurate. It was a great guide on the general direction you should go towards. Why is it deleted smh, they could've just slapped a obsolete label on it or something.
It went away because it was a fan-made walkthrough, and the fan who made it stopped updating it and then it got locked in google docs for inactivity.
By all means, if you have access to or find a version of it, slap some sorta obsolete label on it and post it here so that someone can pin it to the OP...
A lot of the stuff on the wiki is accurate, but a lot of the quests after the festival day quest ends don't really help a whole lot. There's some smaller strategies, but outside of that not much. For example, the wiki only really explains how to get to Winterfall by boat. There's no help identifying the path through the woods, the game indicates this is an option, and I assume is through the lake, but there's nothing really pointing you toward it.
