[Third Person POV],
[Status],
[Name: Blue],
[Age: 0],
[Rare: Gryphon[Gyps fulvus]],
[Level: 1[+]],
[Title: Tamed Beast],
[Master: Ace Blaze],
...…..
Seeing as the status was still the same as he last saw it, Ace decided to just get into levelling blue up.
To start, he laid blue on the bed to guard him from any surprises. Then, while blue looked on innocently, probably unaware of what was happening, Ace willed his thoughts through the primordial chronicle and focused on the level section on blue\'s status, activating the + sign to level up.
Apart from blue panel not being his, it wasn\'t difficult to navigate around it since he used it as if it were his own.
After activating the + sign, another text appeared on the blue panel in front of Ace.
[Your tamed beast[Blue] has levelled up to level 2],
When Ace saw this, he quickly turned to look at blue lying on his bed, but other than the gryphon\'s sudden interest in itself, there was no other obvious change to the gryphon.
Ace reasoned that it was most likely because the gryphon\'s level was still low and the level increase was insufficient to make any noticeable changes.
Blue still had one more level to gain, so Ace made the decision to wait and see if a change would now be apparent.
[Your tamed beast[Blue] has levelled up to level 3],
When Ace saw this, he quickly turned back to the gryphon lying on his bed, but nothing had changed from before—there was still something there, then again.
"Did blue get a little bigger, or am I seeing things?" Ace felt that blue appeared to have gotten a little bigger, but he wasn\'t sure because, even if he was correct in his assumption, the growth wasn\'t obvious enough to back up his suspicions.
Still, Ace tried another method, holding the baby gryphon in his hands and weighing it, but when he realized that the blues was neither heavier nor lighter than he had been prior to the level up, he made the decision to put the issue in the back of his mind and leave it to the future before getting up and leaving the room.
The baby gryphon followed, its body supported by short legs, so it moved slowly, but Ace was at least able to confirm that the level up had an effect because this time, as it tried to move, the gryphon did not tremble.
However, given that it appeared as though the gryphon was still figuring out how to walk correctly and becoming accustomed to it, its movements were still awkward.
All of this made it slower, but thankfully Ace had lowered Blue from the bed when he first got up; otherwise, someone would have to endure the pain of falling off the bed while moving.
When Ace arrived at his lab, the first thing he did was take a can of food out of his storage ring to consume.
He had forgotten that he occasionally needs to eat since he began taking the basic stamina pills and more pills overall.
Since Ace didn\'t have the typical human physique and wasn\'t sure if eating regular food could even be considered nutrition, he wasn\'t sure if he needed to eat. Additionally, he wasn\'t sure if food could affect his body in any other way.
In any case, Ace typically only ate for the sake of eating.
Blue was able to arrive at his location in the lab before he could finish eating and under the irritating cries of the gryphon according to Ace, Ace ended up buying a wooden bowl from the store and bringing out another food can from his storage ring to feed the gryphon.
Ace wasn\'t sure if this was the proper way to feed the gryphon, but since giving it what it was pleading for caused it to stop wailing while silently consuming his food, Ace didn\'t really care and let the gryphon\'s digestive system handle it.
He might browse the store for something that should actually be fed to tamed beasts once he has completed what he wants to do for the day in the alternate dimension.
But that would have to wait since Ace had made the decision to finish his preparations for his job requirements to evolve today—or rather, the current day in the true world—and considering the time difference between the alternate dimension and the true world that Ace had been learning, his departure day would actually be tomorrow in the alternate dimension.
While Ace still had time on his hands, he also didn\'t because it wasn\'t long before significant events began to occur in the true world, and if Ace wanted to do what he wanted to do in the true world without trouble, he needed strength to at least avoid that trouble. At this point, Ace had just under forty days left on his job\'s time limit and he had to at least be powerful enough to avoid being encircled by an unfamiliar race.
As Ace considered these ideas, he summoned the primordial chronicle in his mind and proceeded to the store area with the intention of purchasing materials.
He had less than 200 coins total in his hand at this point. Although he might actually need to sell some of his magic gems, it should be enough to buy some materials but Ace was a little taken back to see an additional 200 gold coins in the total coins section at the bottom of the panel.
He was initially perplexed, but when he realised that just before turning in for the night, he had placed some pill bottles for sale in the shop, he understood where the 200 gold coins came from.
"I guess they sold quite fast", Ace muttered as he made his way to the shop sub option to check his sale.
The primordial chronicle had created something akin to a shop interface for his sales when he decided to sell something in the shop, so that was where he was going. Once there, he was able to verify that the 200 gold coins really did come from selling the pill bottles.
...….
[Ace Blaze Shop],
[Item currently on sale: None],
[Item recently sold: A Basic Stamina Pill Bottle],
[Sale records],
*20 Basic Stamina Pill Bottles.
.....
He noticed that the Primordial Chronicle did not include any information about the individuals who brought his pill bottles, which led him to wonder if the Auction did the same.
Anyhow, Ace was going to sell more items in the shop frequently as he was able to make "easy" money.
He had already made 200 gold coins, so if he put 25 pill bottles of each of the pills he could make in the shop and they were successful in selling, he would have made 1000 gold coins. If he could grind more pills quickly and sell them more frequently, he might be able to earn at least a thousand gold coins each day.
This was Ace\'s line of thinking as he began to realize how many gold coins alchemy could enable him to have if he concentrated solely on income.
Ace finally started working after finishing his shopping for materials at the store as he contemplated this.
Since he wanted to make as many explosives as possible today in order to leave tomorrow and possibly finish the requirements for his job to evolve, there was no plan to make pills today.
He decided to concentrate on creating ignite runic explosives because they were rather simpler to create than explode runic explosives.
He was going to use quantity against quality but he was also going to attempt making explode runic explosives since they might come in hand later.
Ace did not have to worry about his tamed beast disturbing him at this point because it was soundly sleeping on the ground after eating.
If it did, today might be the day when he finally tries gryphon soup..
.....
Meanwhile, in the Dawn Empire settlement, Andrew Dawn was preparing to leave with his men for the earth rat den in a few hours because it was currently dark.
They used this time to fully prepare since they wouldn\'t leave until dawn.
Due to the signs he has been noticing, Andrew Dawn needed a lot of strength in order to avoid being caught off guard and unprepared.
In addition to this, he also didn\'t want his delay to result in anything happening to his dragon heart that would damage it in the process, so he had to get it but wasn\'t ready to leave it in his men care again, and he couldn\'t leave the settlement like that, so he needed to also prepare things in the settlement if he was going to leave, which he was currently doing.
Fortunately, he had his wife and son to help him, so it didn\'t take long to get everything ready.
Andrew Dawn sighed as he called out to the primordial chronicle in his head to check on the notification he had ignored a few hours earlier due to problems. However, just as he was about to do so, his wife unexpectedly burst into the dining room he uses for meetings. He had just told his family to go to bed.
Andrew Dawn was startled by her actions and quickly got to his feet to ask what had happened when his wife spoke and said something that made him smile broadly.
"Our daughter is in the true world dear!"
"She\'s alive!"
