[Ace POV],

I turned to face Anna with a confused expression, ignoring the panel in front of me for a moment, only to see that she, too, was confused. We clearly had no idea what was going on.

Though I didn't see all of the texts on the panel and only the first few, I could tell it wasn't my status but Anna's.

This is where things get tricky. I used to believe that only the owner of his own primordial chronicle could see it, but it's now clear that this was incorrect.

"How did you do it?" I asked Anna.

""I don't know," she admitted, adding, "all I did was think of showing you my primordial chronicle panel just for it to appear in front of you." I, too, am perplexed ", she explained.

Emma and Chris realized what was going on at this point, and I saw them think for a moment before another strange thing happened.

Two more panels appeared in front of me, but unlike Anna's, these ones were denoted by a series of question marks.

[Level: ???],

[Title: ????],

........

When I saw this, I realized what was going on.

To think it was so simple but had gone undetected up until now. Well, it's not like anyone had the time to even consider showing their status to others, and again, this could be a way to protect our information because our status, while simple, tells up to 80% of our information.

However, based on the primordial chronicle panels of Chris and Emma, it appears that you can also conceal your information.

To show others your status, you must first consider who you want to show it to and what you want to show them.

Interesting.

The panels in front of me had already disappeared at some point as I was considering these things. When I noticed this, I turned to face the others who were also staring at me, and spoke.

"So, do you still want to show me now?" I asked Anna, who lowered her head shyly as she heard this.

"I didn't expect this to happen so suddenly, but it doesn't really matter," she said as a panel appeared in front of me.

Before I could read the text, I noticed Anna standing up and walking toward me. Maybe she can't see her primordial chronicle panel if it's being shown to someone else, or maybe she just wants to see this one with me. It doesn't matter since it is her panel, not mine.

I returned my focus to the panel in front of me after Anna had finished making herself at ease beside me.

Her status was similar to mine before I chose a job. The only difference was our information.

I ignored this as there was nothing interesting or new to see, and instead looked at the other texts that appeared after the status text disappeared. It was Anna who was in control.

......

[You have reached level 25 and cannot level up to level 26 until you get your first job and evolve to Rank 1. All primordial records acquired during the evolution process will be recorded, calculated, and stored and once the first job has been successfully acquired, you'd be able to level up],

[You can also choose to use the primordial records accumulated to improve your physique, similar to leveling up, but keep in mind that doing so will only improve your physique close to rank 1 and will greatly increase the primordial records required to level up after evolving],

[This means that if you choose to level up without a job and improve your physique, the primordial records required will be higher when you do get a job and can level up again],

.......

The texts are exactly as they appeared when I reached level 25. Ignoring this, I returned my attention to what drew me to Anna's primordial chronicle panel in the first place.

........

[Your records is being evaluated],

[Records evaluated. Available jobs to choose],

[Common Job],

[Rare Job],

*Mage

[Epic Job],

*Summoner

*Beast Warrior

[Legendary Job],

*Sage Summoner

*Soul Beast Warrior

.......

Anna, unlike me, had fewer jobs, but even the worst started out rare. She didn't even have a common job to choose from.

'Why is it like this?'

Anna called my name as I was about to go deep in thought about this.

"Ace? Is there a problem?" She inquired.

When I heard this, I shook my head and responded.

"Nothing is wrong," I said before asking a question.

"Anna, have you ever practiced martial arts?" I inquired.

"No"

"Swords?"

"Why would I do something like that?"

"Archery?"

"I didn't have the time or money to bother with that," she stated.

I simply nodded when I heard this.

It's not surprising that Anna doesn't have common jobs if it's like this. It's just that she didn't do or have anything to do with common jobs that the primordial chronicle had to offer.

Aside from that, everything appears to be normal. The other jobs that appeared do not appear to be random. This implies that my assumption is correct, and the primordial chronicle only offers jobs related to things you've come into contact with.

The mage should have appeared as a result of Anna's contact with mana. The jobs that have to do with summons are self-explanatory and it's obvious why they were added. What is puzzling is the two jobs with the word "warrior" in their title.

Being a warrior should involve close combat, but in my interactions with Anna, I've never seen her engage in any close combat.

The only clue as to why they appeared is the word 'beast' in their name. There's also the part where Anna has a choice between two legendary jobs.

What I believe is that the appearance of these jobs is related to Anna Epic's summoning skill, which summons beasts.

Thinking about this, I turned to Anna and asked her a question.

"So, which one do you want to choose?" I asked.

When Anna heard this, she did not immediately respond and sat with a thoughtful expression on her face. Seeing this, I did not speak again and waited for a response.

It was only a few seconds later that Anna responded.

"To be honest, my only consideration here is the legendary jobs since it is obvious they're the best option here," she said after a brief pause, adding, "I don't know how important  jobs are, but for it to be the most important thing for us to have before we evolve, that says something."

When I heard this, I nodded since it matched my thoughts. Anna may have her own aims, goals, or ambitions, but that is not my concern. If she chose a job with a lower grade than legendary, especially when she has two job offers in this grade, her brain was probably not working properly.

But, even if a legendary job is more appealing than those below it, I know the difficulty will be similar to the one I received when I chose the Alchemist job before it was changed to Alchemist Lord.

Thinking about this, I told Anna about my experience. Since she didn't hide anything from me and basically just showed me her information, I told her my experience without hiding anything except the black orb incident, since it would be stressful to add its own matters to the already lengthy talk.

Even if she conceals some of her information, I would still tell her because she fulfilled my request. This can be considered payment, though she will still be aware when she chooses a job.

I noticed Emma and Chris listening to our conversation several times while talking with Anna, but I ignored them and continued doing what I was doing.

Anna was obviously affected by what I said after hearing my experience when I saw her look at the names of the legendary jobs on the panel in front of us as if she was trying to get some kind of information from them.

Seeing this, I ignored her and turned to face Mia, who approached me with an empty can and a strange expression on her face.

"Big brother," she said softly as she held the food can up to me.

Though I couldn't see him, I could feel Chris's gaze on me. For some reason, he was watching what was going on here.

Ignoring him, I gave Mia another food can since it was obvious what she wanted when she came with an empty can. I could still afford it if it was just one more can for her to eat.

After that happened, I returned my focus to Anna and the panel in front of me.

"Ace, I've decided which one to choose," Anna said abruptly, just as I returned my attention to her and the panel hovering in front of me.

When I heard what she said, I was curious about her choice and spoke up.

"So which did you decide on?" I asked, looking at her.

Hearing this, she responded, saying;

"My final choice is the......"
