Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Encountering Humans with a job[2]

[Ace POV],

Ultimately, we agreed to go our separate ways starting tomorrow after finding a place to live.

The map and contact function just made it easier to interact with one another and avoid getting lost.

Anna would be on her own, caring for Mia. She's more of a support role, and her crow is the primary damage dealer, thus she and her crow were alright simply being together because they were a two-person squad.

And she was the only one who could care for Mia because no one else on the team could, and I still wouldn't do it even if I could, and Chris knew this, so he didn't object when Anna said she would.

Emma and Chris were going to be together, leaving me alone.

So we were all divided in this way.

Emma and Chris were a two-person team, while Anna and her Crow could be considered one, and I would be on my own.

We might only see each other when we return to wherever we wind up resting.

After we spoke about it for a while and I instructed Anna to search for a cave or something similar to a hideout where we could stay, the others finished their meal and we stood up to proceed to another spot when something happened.

A massive green enormous magic circle emerged in the sky above our heads, but it wasn't the only thing up there in the sky.

There were two individuals and a massive bird as well.

When I saw this, I narrowed my eyes and tried to get a better look at them when a message appeared in front of me.

[Rank 1 Ice Mage Level 27],

[Rank 1 Ice Mage Level 27],

[Rank 1 Wind Hawk Level 33],

Humans with a job? But why can I see their information as I can for monsters?

When I saw this, I turned to look at the two humans, both females with some kind of ice skate on their feet to keep them afloat.

I couldn't see their faces from where I was standing, but I could see some of their features. They both had snow-white hair for one thing.

'I wonder if it's dyed like mine', I thought as I kept looking at them with all my attention.

After all, this was my first interaction with a human with a job, and based on the names of their jobs, I guessed it was a rare-grade job based on what I'd seen when those magical element-linked jobs appeared in the list of jobs he could choose when he took the awakening fruit.

Perhaps because they saw the wind hawk catching up with them, the two humans in the air stopped fleeing and turned to look at the eagle in the sky, and they began speaking.

When the wind eagle saw this, it flapped its wings violently as the big magical circle in the air shone brightly.

"SCREECH!!!"

There were two reasons why I didn't flee when I noticed the level of the monsters. For one thing, I was curious, and for another, I didn't believe that if the two people up there couldn't stop the monsters, I could.

After all, they were genuine rank 1 species, as opposed to me and my team.

It was preferable to remain on the ground and appear as inconspicuous as possible.

Anna was clutching my arm at this time, sweat beads forming on her brow. Chris was no better, as Emma was the only one who seemed to be in control.

When I noticed this, I returned my attention to the humans and monster in the sky, and I could hear a little of what they were saying.

"Looks like the others stopped chasing and just this one continued," I heard, but I couldn't tell who said it because both female features and snow-white hair appeared the same from where I stood.

Immediately after the individual voice dropped, the rank 1 wind hawk let out a loud screech as the magic circle in the sky above everyone's head, including those in the sky, became bright and then dim as the air around the air began to flow violently as a strong wind brew and numerous wind spears appeared around the wind hawk.

The wind spears were all condensed to the point that they were visible, which isn't supposed to be scientifically conceivable without a tool, but since the apocalypse, I've long decided to forgo some aspects of science.

While thinking of this, I turned to stare at the wind spears, which were slightly shaking in the air as I sensed the pressure they radiated to me.

I was certain that no trick could save me if one of these dangerous-looking spears was directed at me, and many of these dangerous-looking spears were currently aimed at females in the air.

Perhaps if everyone was still unranked, a solution to survive these attacks might emerge, but starting from rank 1, the level improvement was not as simple as 1+1 again.

It was a significant advancement.

The only reason I was skeptical about these humans' ability to fight was that they had a job, and this was an opportunity to see what a human with a Job could do.

As I was thinking this, the wind hawk in the sky attacked, and the wind spears around him flew straight to the two females in the sky.

When I saw this, I expected a fierce struggle, but the scene that followed told me otherwise, as I observed the two females in the sky from my direction suddenly lift a hand each as the air in the surroundings got frigid, but my concentration was not on this.

Before the wind spears, which moved at a speed my eyes could barely follow even with extreme focus, could contact the two females in the sky, I saw the humans up there do something I never imagined, despite their levels being significantly lower than the wind hawk.

I saw that the two females froze the wind spears before it could reach them.

Yes, the wind spears froze, and the two rank 1 humans waved their hands as the frozen wind spears were shot back at the wind hawk.

The speed of the spears was even faster than when the wind hawk fired them.

What happened next was likewise unexpected.

When the frozen wind spears came into touch with the wind hawk's body, it exploded into a burst of blood, dyeing the air red as the magic circle in the sky vanished.

'Did they just kill a powerful rank 1 monster like that?' I thought as the smell of blood passed by, reminding me that what I was seeing was genuine.

A rank 1 monster was killed by a single hit.
