Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Aftermath.

[Ace POV],

Rolling to my right to avoid a fireball attack that wasn't meant for me in the first place but for someone else who happened to dodge it, I raised the twin blades in my hands high and slashed at the two level 24 wolves who had planned to take advantage during the time I was dodging and cut their body in half.

Taking advantage of the little time I had left to breathe, I quickly retrieved a pill bottle from my storage ring containing the basic health pills and stuffed one into my mouth to heal the injuries I had sustained during the encirclement by both the bravyrr wolves and the fire eagles.

Fortunately, I did not discard the basic health pills I had previously concocted when they appeared useless. It's at times like this, especially when Emma is unable to cast a healing spell, that these pills show their worth.

Though the effectiveness of the basic health pill decreases when moving, it was still adequate for my current situation.

As I thought of these things, I turned to take a quick glance in Emma's direction, only to hear her voice of complaint as soon as my attention was drawn to her.

"Tsk! When I said I wanted to explore the world, I never said I wanted to explore my own death ", she said as a magic shield appeared behind her back to defend against a fireball thrown at her before she then created light spears and shot them at the fire eagle that attacked her.

When I saw she was fine on her own, I turned to look in Chris's direction, and when I saw he was being ganged up on by multiple monsters, I went to help him.

Anna was on her own as she was the only one among us who could fly. Fortunately and unfortunately for her, the only monsters that could threaten her were the fire eagles, but her speed was too fast for them, and because she was holding Mia in her arms, she couldn't attack and could only fly around in circles to avoid the fire eagles' attacks.

Aside from that, she was fine with only minor injuries. As I was thinking about these things, I killed the wolf who was planning a sneak attack on Chris, and then I joined forces with him to attack the remaining monsters who surrounded him.

....

"Ah" "Ah" "Ah"

I panted several times as my breathing became more difficult as exhaustion set in. My hands and arms were sore and numb from swinging the twin blades in my hand so much.

'Perhaps I should have tried making a basic stamina pill. 'The people who taught and made this concoction really knew what they were doing,' I thought as I tried to control my rough breathing and looked in the direction of my teammates and the 'battlefield.'

[Quest; Cross the bridge/Defeat the guardian],

It was only one quest. We had to either cross the bridge or defeat the guardian. If it was just crossing the bridge, it sounded simple, but it wouldn't have been called a trial if it was that simple. Since it was a trial, there had to be something we had to do to pass it, and I'm guessing that something was for us to cross the bridge after going through this monster wave. This should be the obstacle created by the primordial chronicle for crossing the bridge. But, given how difficult it eventually became, I'm curious how powerful this guardian is for the primordial chronicle to mention it.

I didn't believe the four rank 1 monsters were the guardian mentioned in the primordial chronicle because if they were, it would have been 'Guardians' rather than 'Guardian'.

As I thought of these things, I dodged the wolf's bite attack and nailed it to the ground with a forced stab from my blades.

"Ah" "Ah" "Ah"

The bravyrr wolves and fire eagles were not particularly powerful; rather, they were numerous, which contributed to my exhaustion.

There were numerous small piles of monster corpses around me.

My kills account for some of these piles, while the rest were for other people.

"BOOOOMMM!" "BOOOOMMM!"

Hearing the loud noise that sounded twice in a row, I quickly turned my attention to the direction the sound came from, wondering if another enemy had appeared, only to discover that the source of the loud noise just now was from the two fire eagles that attacked the shadow crow before falling from the sky to the ground.

They were miserable, and the shadow crow was no better. The three monsters were clearly at their last strength right now, but anyone who looked at them could see that the shadow crow still had a slight advantage over the two fire eagles.

With a loud screech, the shadow crow released a familiar-looking large mass of black fire on the two fire eagles as it also collapsed to the ground from the sky, slowly burning to death the two rank 1 fire eagles.

Immediately following this, the other two rank 1 brayvrr wolves howled in pain on the trial grounds.

Turning my head in the direction of the sound, I noticed that the people fighting with the two rank 1 brayvrr wolves were nearly finished.

'It's coming to an end,' I thought as I gradually calmed my erratic breathing.

Ignoring the strong smell of blood all around me, I made my way to Chris and Emma as Anna landed from the sky and walked with me, holding a sobbing Mia in her arms.

Fortunately for them, when I met up with them, none of us lost a limb and, aside from a few minor injuries here and there, we were fine.

At least no one died.

As I was thinking about this, I heard Emma's voice.

"Let's get out of here," Emma said, her face pale as she looked around at the dead bodies that belonged to both humans and monsters.

Anna had already spoken, so I didn't have to respond.

"Let's go check on Crow then," she said as she led everyone to the shadow crow location.

'Isn't it just some dead bodies?' I really want to rest,' I thought weakly, but I followed them anyway as I wanted to harvest some things from the dead rank 1 fire eagles the shadow crow killed.
