[Third Person POV],

There was no doubt that Andrew Dawn would play a significant part in the struggle that was about to take place.

Despite the fact that Ace was nothing more than a slow person in the eyes and clashes of species that possessed Andrew Dawn power, even he could tell from the pressure that Andrew Dawn was currently emitting that he had become more dangerous than he was prior to taking whatever pill he took, and this alone meant a lot.

The dragon phantom had previously attacked two individuals in the area where Andrew Dawn was, but it only succeeded in harming the rat queen. Ace wasn\'t sure how he did it, but he believed Andrew Dawn\'s speed had something to do with it.

Ace was able to infer from Andrew Daw\'s fight with the mutant rats in the combat that took place before the dragon incident that one of his strengths must be related to speed, which is why he got to this conclusion.

Either that, or Ace was simply too sluggish to capture anything and credited Andrew Dawn\'s speed.

Unsurprisingly, Ace was right in his assumption and in fact, in two of his assumptions.

Ace was correct about the pills that Andrew Dawn and his men took being the berserk pill, and he was also correct about Andrew Dawn\'s speed preventing him from being struck by the dragon phantom.

Andrew Dawn was already fast enough—and faster than some of those in equal level and job grade—in his regular state before he took the crazy pill.

He also becomes faster when he coats himself in lightning, thus it\'s hardly surprise that his speed will grow greatly if his qualities are enhanced.

It should also be emphasised that his body was still wrapped in lightning, therefore at this time, it was even debatable whether Andrew Dawn\'s speed was something that even average early rank 2 specie should possess.

It should also be questioned whether the Dragon Phantom even possessed the abilities that a rank 1 should.

[Rank 1 Dragon Phantom level 50],]

The phantom was already this powerful, so imagine how powerful the dragon will be when completely revived.

When it claimed that failure to defeat the Dragon Phantom would result in death, the primordial chronicle was not at all exaggerating.

The issue was that, aside from wanting the dragon heart back, how could Andrew Dawn be sure that he wouldn\'t run into the fully revived dragon again in the future if he chose not to complete this quest and leave the dragon heart where it is?

There was a good likelihood that Andrew Dawn would die that day if he came into contact with the dragon and a battle ensued, since it was evident that the dragon would be stronger than its phantom. This was something he did not even want to consider.

He remained in the den to battle this monster because of this and the fact that his family and other people required him to be there for them since they lived in this world.

To become stronger, he also needed to get rid of this monster.

As Andrew Dawn considered these thoughts, he let out a loud yell and vanished from where he was.

Before, when Andrew Dawn ran, there would still be a flash of light, but now, not even a speck of dust could be seen trailing behind him.

The only thing that alarmed Ace was the thunderous noise that resounded in the den shortly after Andrew Dawn vanished.

Ace didn\'t require an explanation to understand the origin of the sound.

To put it another way, what Andrew Dawn just achieved breached the sound barrier.

Although it sounds uninteresting, this was not a routine situation.

The fact that a human, not a machine, has recently broken the sound barrier should be recognised.

Ace knew that because the human body was evolving due to the primordial chronicle, it wouldn\'t be impossible for humans to break sound barriers, and perhaps the stronger ones might even be able to break more sound barriers while moving at different mach speeds, but he didn\'t expect it to happen in front of him now, and with a rank 1 specie at that.

Although Andrew Dawn may not be a typical rank 1 specie, this does not change his rank, and the fact that he accomplished this in a single movement without using prior momentum was sufficient to demonstrate a portion of Andrew Dawn\'s current power.

Ace was confused by this as well, though.

For starters, the dramatic boost in power was so excessive that Ace questioned whether the berserk pill was even the only cause of the improvement in power.

In any case, Andrew Dawn\'s increased strength increased the likelihood that they would be able to defeat the dragon phantom, and as Ace had these ideas flash through his mind, Andrew Dawn\'s moves were even quicker.

Andrew Dawn broke the sound barrier and materialised in the air near the head of the dragon phantom.

The dragon phantom was caught off guard by Andrew Dawn\'s quick appearance, which gave the impression that he had teleported there, and had little chance to defend itself before getting punched in the cheek.

BOOM!!!

The thunderous sound of a hammer striking iron could be heard echoing throughout the den as Andrew Dawn\'s fist made contact with the dragon phantom cheek. The blow also sent a shockwave through the entire space.

The enormous body of the dragon phantom was somewhat lifted in the air by the force of Andrew Dawn\'s punch to the phantom\'s face, but aside from that, it didn\'t appear to be wounded at all, which was probably due to its scales protecting it from Andrew Dawn\'s strike.

Fortunately, Andrew Dawn still had an additional attack planned for the dragon phantom that was lingering in the air.

"Rank 1 Soul Magic: Soul Drain"

Andrew Dawn yelled the spell\'s name and then flung the spear he had summoned for the spell towards the phantom Dragon in front of him.

This was another soul spell that Andrew Dawn was familiar with; it was comparable to the rank 0 spell he used on George Winter\'s daughter in that both spells are simply scaled-down versions of the original.

The soul drain spell was where the caster uses their magic to drain the life force or essence from their target\'s soul, causing them to weaken and potentially even die. This attack could be particularly effective against enemies who rely heavily on their soul.

In a nutshell, Andrew Dawn had just used this extremely lethal assault on the dragon phantom.

Ace, however, was oblivious to all of this because he had already entered the pit to begin working.

The mutated monsters weren\'t as spread out as they had been before, and they were close to Andrew Dawn\'s men, so at first he wanted to just stay where he was and keep throwing explosives at them. However, he stopped himself because the explosives in his hand weren\'t much, and if he mistakenly threw them close to Andrew Dawn\'s men, it would be game over.

Because of this, he dashed into the hole to engage the mutant rats in close quarters.

Ace thought he should still be able to kill a few mutated rats while taking advantage of the fact that they were all still trying to adapt to the shaking cave as long as he doesn\'t come too close and get overwhelmed or hit by the mutated rats.

He was also having trouble, but he was faring better than the mutant rats, who didn\'t even have enough room to move about.

As Ace was descending down the hole, he brought something from his storage ring that he never planned to use so soon.

Ace sprinted towards the group of red-skinned rodents while hopping a few times as a result of the trembling ground, feeling the dual blades\' comfortable grasp in his hands.

Ace coated the twin blades in blue flames before leaping to go near to a mutated rat that was around 10 metres away from the back of the thick group of mutated rats that was surrounding Andrew Dawn\'s men.

Ace wasn\'t sure if an ordinary blade assault without any additional force would harm the mutant rats because they had scales on their bodies.

Because of this, he performed a series of horizontal spills in midair that gave the appearance that he was surrounded by flames to give his attack more momentum. Just as the mutated rat was about to turn around to face him due to the heat from the flames coating the blade, Ace struck it in the neck as its head separated from its neck with little resistance.

[You have gained the primordial record of rank 1...….

Ace was aware of what the bell-like sound in his brain would signify, so he ignored it and moved on to the next lone target he could locate. As a result, Ace\'s head began to ring with several notification sounds for a considerable period of time.

[You have gained the primordial record  of rank 1...….

[You have gained the primordial record  of rank 1...….

[You have gained the primordial record  of rank 1...….

[You have gained the primordial record  of rank 1...….

...…

This went on for a while as Ace made his way carefully towards the main group of mutant rats, trying his best to keep his curiosity at bay as Andrew Dawn and the Dragon Phantom engaged in combat.

What no one in the den was aware of was that the den was already collapsing from the inside.
