When the view of the bronze door came into view, I dismissed my status, which had only a minor change on it.

Yesterday night, I was finally able to grind all of my pills to a high purity level, along with my success rate in making them, but aside from the basic mana pill, which only reached 60% purity, the three other pills, which were the basic health, stamina, and food pill, were all above 70% purity. Only just barely.

Finally, I received my title, which was an added bonus since I got to see the effect of the previous one, which was very good.

.....

[Apprentice Alchemist],

A title given to an alchemist who has left training and is quite experienced in concocting a certain number of basic pills and that is recognized by the primordial chronicle.

*Increases total mana pool by 7%.

*Increases success rate of rank 0 items by 10%.

...….

Apart from feeling something in my body, which was most likely related to my mana pool slightly increasing after activating the title, I was unable to test how effective the title's second function would be because I was too exhausted to continue concocting at the time.

I was exhausted to the point where I knew that taking more pills to give myself energy would cause me more harm, so I stopped to rest, and after waking up, taking a bath, and eating a light meal, I'm on my way to the true world, which is what I'm currently doing.

It is now morning in the alternate dimension, but it is still very dark.

As I considered these things and opened the bronze door in front of me to go outside, I quickly closed it and set my feet in the dark room.

After that, I used the nearby stairs to slowly make my way up to the surface while thinking about a few things.

Except for Emma, who I didn't know the specifics of her job and her job requirements, all of my other teammates should be nearing the end of their job quest and evolving.

According to my calculations, this should take between 2 and 5 days.

I wasn't far from evolving as well, but I needed quite a few more kills, so I decided to focus on completing the second requirements today, so that once this is completed, the only job requirements relating to alchemy will be left.

I had a few ideas on how to complete the remaining two in my head already, but I won't start acting on them until I finish the second requirement, and it would be ideal if I could start today, but that is not up to me to decide.

Hmmm.

Due to lack of time, I have not been able to put any of the quest rewards, such as the exercises and spells from the neutral magic grimoire, into practice.

What I really needed was still time, and I believe I'll get it if I evolve successfully.

As I was thinking about these things, I was finally able to reach the surface via the stairs, and after the usual covering of my traces, I made my way away from the grassy hill to begin my hunt.

...…

'Too bloody,' I thought as I examined the state of my clothes, and when I saw that they were too bloody, I moved away from my current location to a more secluded place where there was no monster in sight to clean myself and change my clothes.

After that, I went to another location to check on my progress in completing my second job requirement, as that was what I was focusing on today, and looking at the sky, it was already evening and approaching nighttime.

...…

[Kill Unranked Monsters using Magic: [100/100]✔

[Kill Rank 1 Monster using magic: [34/50]],

[Kill Rank 1 Monster with the aid of Alchemy: [6/30]],

[Kill Rank 1 Monster with a single hit with the aid of Alchemy: [0/1]],

[Time Limit: 40 Days: 15 Hours: 36 Minutes: 38 Seconds],

...…

It was approaching afternoon here after leaving the alternate dimension and returning to the true world, so I guess this is a good improvement, but the problem is that I won't be able to complete the second requirement today. I needed an extra day.

At the very least, I was about to level up twice, so it's all right.

Just a little more strength and I'll be able to get that level 34 crystal core to power the magical building in the alternate dimension.

I could also continue my hunt in the true world and not return.

Maybe the exhaustion will be too much for me, but I had the basic stamina pill to help me.

As I thought of these things while reconsidering my plans, I felt the air around me shift a little.

It started slowly, so I ignored it at first, but when the mana in the air began to stir excessively, I had no choice but to look for what was causing it, and it didn't take long for me to figure out what it was.

A blue portal slowly appeared in front of me.

When I first saw it, I thought it was the portal that Anna and Emma mentioned in the alternate dimension, so I prepared to run to a distance far away from here, but I came to a halt when I noticed that the portal stopped growing at a certain height.

It didn't appear to be the massive portal the girls spoke of, so instead of running, I walked slowly closer to the portal in front of me, and when I was a reasonable distance away from it, I used the primordial chronicle to check its information.

[Slime dungeon],

[Condition to enter: level 25],

[Difficulty: Easy],

....

Slime dungeon?

Like a dungeon filled with slimy monsters?

I don't know why but I started to have several scenes in my head as to what monsters might be in the dungeon and since the difficulty of the dungeon is easy.....
