[Third Person POV],

Seeing the bloody appearance of the rat queen\'s body, Ace had no expression on his face, nor did his body react in any way that betrayed his thoughts as he moved closer to the rat queen after carefully placing the still sleeping blue on the ground.

When he got close to the rat queen\'s body, Ace bent down as he reached out to start harvesting the crystal core of the rat queen.

His actions were fast and fluid, as he did not hesitate in what he was doing.

He also did not need to hesitate since it was already confirmed that the rat queen was dead since the primordial chronicle would not have sent a notification that he had received its primordial records except that monsters can now revive after death, so Ace did not hesitate in whatever he was doing.

Apart from his assurance in the primordial chronicle, Andrew Dawn was also there, so there was no need to be cautious about the rat queen or any other monster that could be around.

After harvesting the crystal core of the rat queen, Ace did not pay attention to it and just put it in his storage ring.

He felt that the shape of the crytal core he had just harvested seems to be quite different in shape from the regular orb shaped core he had experience with from harvesting quite a number of cores from monsters, but since Andrew Dawn was here and he still had unfinished business with the man, he could not just focus on other things, and it was like the core was going to run away, so when he gets home, he will check it out, but for now, he wanted to focus on the things that were meant to be focused on.

This was why he did not even bother with cleaning the bloody core before placing it in his storage ring and although there was no need to, this was something he mostly did after most harvest.

Either way, it was already harvested.

Seeing as there was nothing else of value he could spot on the rat queen body, Ace placed his hand on the corpse in front of him and called out the primordial chronicle in his head before heading to the store section to exchange the rat queen corpse for coins.

Butt just as he was about to continue his actions, a certain thought came to him that caused him to halt what he was doing.

\'Why don\'t I take it home and see if i can make use of it\', Ace thought for a second before he dismissed the panel in front of him and immediately after doing this, he placed the corpse of the rat queen in his storage ring.

After this was done, he packed a little of the sand on the ground to clean his bloody hand and after this was done, he turned back to face Andrew Dawn who was having a conversation with his men and when Andrew Dawn saw that Ace was through with what he was doing, he halts his conversation with his men and opened his mouth to speak as he addressed Ace.

"Is there anything else you want lad?" Andrew Dawn asked Ace as Ace thought about it for a few seconds and shook his head in response to show that there wasn\'t anything else that he wanted.

Although Ace lacked a little EQ due to his condition, he could still tell that what Andrew Dawn had given him was already more than enough since the gain he had received from the whole battle with the mutated rats was more than enough.

Whether it was the completetion of his job requirements or the dragon blood of immense value or the monster corpse in his storage ring, these were all spoils that were very valuable.

He hadn\'t even added the rewards he will receive from the quest of defeating the dragon phantom because during their converstaion about the catalysts for evolving, Andrew Dawn mentioned something about wanting to rest before he received the quest reward which showed that the quest was already completed but Ace just hasn\'t checked it himself.

But while it seems that while Ace himself had come to an understanding, Andrew Dawn must have really wanted to do more and ahe did exactly just that as the sound of metal hitting metal suddenly sounded as Ace watched as a large number of coins suddenly appeared if front of Andrew Dawn.

"Heres the coins I promised", Andrew Dawn stated as Ace took a look at him for a secod before coming closer to the gold coins gathered in one place and laid his hand on it and all the gold coins on the floor that made Andrew Dawn men mouth water dissappeared in a blink as Ace total coins increased by 2000.

Seeing this, Ace thought that it was not so bad that he achieved all this things by merely risking his life.

Perhaps he should start seeking out more adventure in more places to get stronger faster.

Of course, this was just a thought as Ace just wanted to head home, figure out which catalyst to use to increase his success in evolving to the next rank,, and make some more items with Alchemy.

As Ace\'s thoughts started to wander a little, Andrew Dawn\'s voice sounded and brought him out of his thoughts.

"It\'s farewell time, boy. It\'s time to depart, and hopefully, the next time I see you, you\'ll be a ranked specie by then", Andrew Dawn said as he and Ace exchanged a few more words before Andrew Dawn gave a final farewell to Ace by tapping his shoulder with a happy and relaxed smile on his face before he turned to leave with his men, who carried their teammates, as Caleb also waved to Ace, to which Ace responded by replicating the same action as he watched the back of Andrew Dawn and his men slowly disappear from his line of sight.

Seeing as the surroundings had returned to their initial silence, Ace also got ready to leave as he took blue from the ground into his arms, called out the primordial chronicle in his head, and selected the map section.

After a while of figuring out his way back home on the map, Ace dismissed it and started moving, but just after he exited the forest, he received a message from Andrew Dawn.

.......

[Andrew Dawn],

I forgot to tell you but Adara is in the true world.

.......

\'Huh?\'

********

\'It\'s too expensive\', Ace thought as he continued to make his way forward to the alternate dimension while checking his map and surroundings occasionally.

After he received that message from Andrew Dawn that Adara was in the true world, Ace did not attempt to even message Adara and quickly used the contact system to send a friend request to his mom and sister, but he was unable to do so.

Thankfully, he could not send a message now because of a new reason and not because his family was not in the true world, but because just after he sent his friend\'s request, which surprisingly got accepted fast but the amount needed to send a message now was already above 10,000 gold coins.

That was a lot of gold coins which Ace did not have even the gold coins he received from Andrew Dawn were not enough but although it was unfortunate that he couldn\'t message his family now to check up on them, Ace was not really bothered about not being able to message them because as long as he just make pills for a while and nothing else and sell the pills he had made at the shop, Ace believed he\'d be able to contact his family from his side except it will take quite a while for him to accomplish it.

At least his family are alive so it was okay as Ace subconsciously became affected by his subconscious happiness and quickly increased his speed to reach the alternate dimension faster.

It was currently late afternoon and Ace calculated that he should reach the alternate dimension in the night if nothing unexpected was to happen.

So while Ace increased his speed to get home faster, he also observed his surroundings carefully every time to avoid running into any strong monster or mysterious races.

Thankfully, while he did run into monsters, they were the weaker ones so after spending a little more time taking care of that, Ace reached the entrance to the alternate dimension when it was already midnight in the true world.

A/N: Something unexpected came up so I was not able to write the two chapters I\'m supposed to write before reset or even edit this one so please pardon me. Perhaps if I had written Alchemist first before writing my new book, I could have even written three chapters.

Thanks for reading and please if you have the time, check out my new book that\'s not yet out on my profile and tell me what you think about it.

If I can make it big with Alchemist or my new books, I promise to get an editor so you guys stop having to deal with raw chapters😂.

New book; Dark Hunger: Devourer Of Energy.
