Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!



In the end, the group had to wait for Chris to arrive. 

Emma had messaged him to find out where he was, and that's when the boy realized he had gotten carried away and quickly hurried to meet up with the girls.

What he didn't expect was to see Ace, as Emma had not mentioned that in the message she sent. 

Emma probably kept it from him to surprise him about seeing Ace. 

Ace too looked at Chris with curiosity evident in his eyes. 

Ace was able to confirm that all his teammates had evolved, although he couldn't gauge how powerful they were currently since he had not seen them fighting all out. 

Ace had only managed to see a little of Emma's performance, but he could at least confirm that evolving seemed to have some beautifying effect.

Ace wasn't in a rush to find out how powerful they were, even though he was curious. 

From what he saw from their origin abilities a while ago, he was 90% sure that the girls were in the top 100, at least. 

Ace was also curious about Chris's origin ability, but unlike the girls, Chris was not there to make a deal with him when they wanted to see his capabilities.

In any case, Ace was not in a rush because as long as they were still together as a team, he would later find out about his origin ability sooner or later. What Ace wanted to do now was go back to the settlement and rest there since interesting things were going to happen there.

He had only mentioned to the girls if they were interested in heading somewhere with him, and before he could explain more about the place he wanted to take them to, the girls had already agreed to follow him. 

The moment they heard that the emperor they knew in their old world and respected was the owner of the place Ace was planning to take them, they're on board.

Ace did not really know what the deal was with their reaction, but since he didn't have to talk too much, he was cool with it. 

Chris also had no problem stating or posing and was cool with whatever as long as the place he was going to would provide a place to rest.

He wasn't even concentrating on what his teammates were saying at that time when they told him about the newest plans. Instead, Chris was focused on the ice landscape in front of him and the snowmen that seemed to have just been built. 

The air was also close to freezing since he was in this icy landscape, but there were a lot of reasons why what lay before his eyes made no sense.

However, when he found out this was the effect of Ace's power, the tall image of brother Ace in his head grew even taller. 

Chris didn't know how Ace did it, but that did not stop him from respecting a cool person who could do cool things. 

Regardless of how strong he was, like his sister, Chris was still a young child at heart and in appearance. The apocalypse just made it so that their childhood got prematurely robbed from them.

Now that the team was complete, there was one thing that remained: heading to the settlement. They would have done so already, but Ace mentioned that he wanted to grab his pet. 

The others were surprised by this since they didn't expect to hear about such a word in the true world again, at least not at the current time. They also wondered what pet Ace had, and although they were curious, they kept quiet and wanted to see for themselves.

The reason Blue was not with Ace was simple. Blue was just too big and flying openly could attract unwanted attention. So, to avoid any problems, Ace decided to leave Blue at a specific location in the true world, not far from the entrance to the alternate dimension, which was their home. 

Ace could not risk exposing the alternate dimension, especially when he did not have the strength to fully protect it.

For one, Blue would not be able to enter the alternate dimension due to his huge body, which could not pass through the entrance leading to that realm, let alone the door that led to the alternate dimension itself. This meant that Blue would have to be left outside the entrance. 

While this may not seem like a problem on the surface, it could raise curiosity if a human or another race spotted him repeatedly near the glassy hill, which served as camouflage for the alternate dungeon. Ace knew he would eventually have to return to the alternate dimension, and this could expose their little secret. 

To avoid such risks, it was better to keep Blue away from that location and get him used to staying at a distance.

Unexpectedly, Ace encountered his teammate at a good distance from the alternate dimension, meaning they only needed to cross a little distance to see Blue. 

Although it might be a journey for ordinary humans, it was just a short run for Ace and his teammates.

Something Ace noticed after the gyphon evolved and he stayed away from Blue was that their connection became stronger. He could understand Blue more clearly than before, and it seemed that Blue also became more intelligent after evolving. The link between them grew, and even when they're not close, Ace could sense Blue's general location, although the connection weakened the further they were from each other.

Through this connection and his memory of where he left Blue, Ace was able to quickly locate his pet. He was also curious about his teammates' reactions when they saw Blue.

Hmmm

Maybe the lad was secretly relishing the thrill of showing off, he began to realize.
