Ace sent this question to Andrew Dawn, but first he had to dismiss the primordial chronicle because a mutated rat was charging at him. Ace then circulated earth mana throughout his body and placed earth spikes in front of the mutated rat to halt its progress until he could stand up and attack the monster.

It was like a role reversal because this time Ace was charging at the mutated rat that had been charging at him before, but all Ace wanted to do was kill the monster and be done with it.

For one thing, Ace's main activity in the den since the battle with the dragon phantom began has been to kill, heal, kill, kill, kill, heal, and kill again and again.

Ace's condition made it that he didn't get any physiological thoughts or feelings from killing the mutated rats over and over, but he was definitely becoming more numb to it.

Fortunately for Ace, in addition to his job's third requirement being nearly complete, Ace could sense his familiarity with earth magic, as well as his combat prowess with it, was significantly increasing.

In a nutshell, Ace could feel his combat prowess growing over time as he discovered ways to kill the mutated rats faster and faster so that he didn't have to heal himself several times in a row like when he first began fighting in the crowd of mutated rats.

Perhaps it was his familiarity with killing the mutated rats rather than his combat prowess that was increasing, but either way, it was good for Ace.

The only problem was that the message reply that Ace was expecting from Andrew Dawn did not arrive even after a few minutes, which was understandable given that the explosions that were still ringing out in the background caused by the fight between Andrew Dawn and the dragon phantom showed that there was still a lot going on for Andrew Dawn to even have the time to stop in mid-fight to continue his battle.

In any case, Ace also had to worry about his own fight, as the situation between them was a little mutual.

As Ace continued to fight the mutated rats alongside Andrew Dawn's men, the number of mutated rats in the area was already dwindling to the point where the monsters were no longer squeezed between themselves and were spaced out from one another.

Ace reasoned that it might not take long for all of them to focus on the dragon phantom and concentrate all of their attacks together with the powerful Andrew Dawn to defeat it.

Of course, this was contingent on Andrew Dawn's ability to survive until then.

Ace ducked to avoid the punches directed at him from his back and front by two mutated rats, and when they saw his actions, they used their legs to attack, which Ace dodged again by jumping up, causing the leg attacks that were intended for him to hit the two mutated rats that attacked him.

As a result, both ignored Ace, their enemy, and held their legs in pain.

Although the mutated rats all had humanoid figures, this did not imply that their intelligence was comparable to humans, because if it was, they would have realised that the action they were taking could lead to their death, and Ace was not going to waste this chance.

While in mid air, Ace twisted his body to have his legs up and his head on the same level as the two mutated rats beside him.

Just before descending from mid air, Ace quickly coated his twin blades with flames before rotating his body to gain momentum and add more force to the attack he was about to deliver as he cut both mutated rats into several pieces beginning with their heads.

The sight was gruesome, as the organs of the mutated rats Ace had just slain spilled to the ground in several pieces, but Ace was used to it by this point.

In fact, he was already numb to everything that had happened in the pit since he entered, and he was even accustomed to the lingering scent of blood in the air at all times.

It wasn't just him; Andrew Dawn's men had no extra expression on their faces despite creating more gruesome scenes and having blood on their faces than he did.

They were all too numb to the situation around them, as they even slaughtered the mutated rats like machines.

It was the same with Ace even since he last received a message from Andrew Dawn to distract him from battle but this was going to come to an end because the mutated rats that were still standing only numbered a few dozens but this did not mean much because even if they were done killing all the mutated rats, it did not change the fact that there was another one that was even more terrifying for them to battle.

For the time being, all they had to do was kill the remaining mutated rats.

With this in mind, Ace got to work.

...…

BOOM!!!!!

Looking at the mushroom cloud that was caused by his explosive, Ace could not help but give a satisfying nod as he saw the last of his job requirements finally get completed but before he could even check the content that came after, another panel suddenly appeared in front of his eyes that startled Ace a little and when he turned to check what the panel was all about, he found out it was a reply from Andrew Dawn.

'It seems like he finally has time to reply', Ace thought as he read the content on the blue panel in front of him.

[Andrew Dawn],

Good.

Celeb said the medicine you gave him was like a solidified pill so all I want you to do is throw the pills in the air and immediately after doing that, just give a loud shout and iI'lll come get it.

Please be fast, I can't hold on for long.

.....

This was the message Andrew Dawn sent, and looking at things, it was clear that he was in more of a struggle with the dragon phantom than he was at the start.

Ace turned to face the battle, which he had forced himself not to be overly concerned about because of the mutated rats around him.

He had just slain the last of the mutated rats, so it was finally time to focus on the main battle that would determine whether his decision was correct or not.

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ace turned to look at the other 'pit' in the pit that was created from Andrew Dawn and the battle phantom fight.

There were numerous cracks throughout the area of battle, which appeared to have been caused by a natural disaster rather than being man-made.

While it appeared that the phantom dragon could not cast magic and could only attack with its physical strength, the places Ace could see the dragon footprint were as frightening as the ground that had been split open by lightning.

Both Andrew Dawn and the dragon phantom were disasters on their own, and while the dragon phantom was far more transparent than when it first appeared, Andrew Dawn did not appear to even be alive at this point.

Apart from looking like blood itself, the red 'aura' that was being released at first had reduced to the original mist form, which meant that Andrew Dawn's powers were gradually returning to their original state, which was bad because if the effect of the red mist wore off, they were doomed because no one in the pit except Andrew Dawn could fight the dragon phantom one on one.

Andrew Dawn was going to fall into a state of heavy weakness after the effect of the pill wore off because the increase in strength was brought on by an external item, which was a pill. This was the repercussions of having his powers enhanced.

This was not because he used a pill to boost his power; it would have been the same if he had used any other external item capable of performing the same function. There was bound to be a cost, and the backlash was what it was.

Ace decided to do what Andrew Dawn asked of him because the situation was truly dire for him.

He first brought out a bottle of the most pure basic health pill he could make at his level, which were basic health pills with at least 70% purity, but he stopped before adding the basic stamina and mana pill.

The basic mana pills had the lowest pill purity, but they were still at least 60% or higher.

Even though he was perplexed as to how throwing the pills in the air would end up in Andrew Dawn's hands, Ace did it anyway, and immediately after removing all the pills and throwing them in the air, he screamed as instructed..

"Ahhhhhh!!!!"
