Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

New Problem

[Third Person POV],

"You bastard"

When Andrew Dawn heard the man who was holding the violently shaking girl in his arms, he just sighed loudly and placed his right hand on his face before speaking.

"Why did you bring her to this place?" He inquired because the man he addressed did not respond, but the wind around him became violent instead.

Violent to the point where the men around them were gradually pushed back, but this was not the strangest part of it all.

What was strange was the strange green portal that appeared behind him, and from the portal slowly emerged a very big gorilla with a very strong aura.

...…..

[Rank 1 Earth Gorilla Level 37],

A spirit summoned by the entity; George Winter from the spirit world.

A mid-rank monster who excels at fighting in close combat and can defend with earth magic.

...…

Yes, the king who had always opposed Andrew Dawn is a summoner, and his name is George Winter, but unlike Anna's summoning skill, this skill was related to his job.

In the sense that he did not make contracts with the summons he summoned from the spirit world, but instead forged a path with them to assist one another.

Unlike Anna's summoning skill, which required her to summon a creature from the shadow world at random and if she liked it, she can continue summoning for as long as long as the summon's spirit is not above her and if she decides to have a contract with the summon, she can gain benefits from it.

Her skill was also more flexible in the sense that she could keep summoning while trying to find the summon she wanted by cutting off the connection she had with the one she didn't want.

George Winter's summoning ability was a little different.

Different in the sense that George Winter had to travel to the spirit world with his spirit body and forge a path with a spirit who was willing to do so under certain conditions, and while he could not have the advantages that Anna had with her summoning skill, the advantages that his job provided were greater than what Anna's skill could currently provide.

For one, he could create multiple paths with multiple spirits as long as his spirit body could handle it which essentially made him something akin to a one-man army.

Furthermore, the spirit he summoned would always have a mid -level or higher potential or have its potential elevated to the mid-level due to his job powers.

This was one of the reasons most spirits were willing to cooperate with him to forge a path.

And, while he couldn't get feedback from the spirits he summoned, he could still get a large portion of their primordial records whenever they were summoned.

A spirit body is similar to inner conscience, but because of magic, it is a little more complicated than just being inner consciousness.

There were also different types of paths, such as friendship paths, equal paths, master and servant paths, and so on.

The earth gorilla he just summoned is one of his early summoned spirits, which was originally a spirit with low-level potential but had its potential elevated to mid-level talent due to having made a path with George Winter, making it more loyal to George Winter even though the path they made with each other didn't require him to be loyal.

The Equal Path is the path that connects Earth Gorilla and George Winter.

George Winter's job was powerful in its own right, which is understandable given its Epic Grade, but what most people didn't know is that jobs are far more than just a tool to being powerful, which was something a lot of people couldn't know given that it had only been a week for even the fastest human to arrive in the true world to learn some secrets.

The Earth Gorilla is usually summoned to the true world for combat, so it was already prepared to fight the moment it arrived, but what it didn't expect was to see its friend on the ground holding his shaking daughter, who appeared to be in a lot of pain.

The Earth Gorilla's first thought was to rush to their side and use its massive body, which measured slightly more than 4 meters, to stand guard before releasing a loud roar that created a mini gust of wind.

Even after seeing this, Andrew Dawn didn't show much emotion because the dome's defensive ability kept others at bay as he continued to stare at George Winter and his daughter.

And yes, Andrew Dawn was now aware that the person in George's hands is his daughter seeing as he felt she was familiar, and she just happened to bear the brunt of his soul attack, which is understandable given that there must be some kind of connection between the girl and the bird she was controlling, and for the girl to be affected by the attack, that connection had to be rather deep.

The effect of Andrew Dawn's 'Rank 0 Soul Magic: 'Disintegrate' spell was to wipe away the soul of anything with a soul that was weaker than him, killing it in the process, which meant that the girl should have died by now, but the reason she was still alive had to be because of the broken chain that was now on the floor beside her, but this was not enough to save her from the end result that was still coming.

Even though the girl was the daughter of the king who continued to oppose Andrew Dawn given that he also had a daughter, he didn't expect his attack to have struck the girl, which is why he felt bad.

He wouldn't have been bothered if the attack had affected someone else because George Winter had also killed some of his men.

He had already seen the death of a reasonable number of people before the apocalypse arrived, and the warriors who were below him were also ready to die at any time. This was especially true in the true world so it was even something seen as honour to die for one's king and 'home'.

The problem now is that the person who was still affected in the end was the daughter of George Dawn and the consequences for this was something that no one knew.
