Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Back Home Together

[Ace POV],

Walking slowly towards the grassy hill that held the entrance to the bronze door using the map from where I was, I decided to dismiss the map panel in front of me, but just before I could, I noticed something at the panel's corner.

It was a cyan-colored dot that was constantly blinking and looking in the direction it was heading; I knew it had to be Anna because it was exactly where the grassy hill that held the stairs to the Bronze door was the dot was heading to.

Seeing this, I wanted to close my map and concentrate on my path when I noticed that the cray dot blinking on the holographic map abruptly changed its direction, and looking at the map, the blinking cyan coloured dot was heading towards my location, and it was approaching quickly.

When I realized this, I dashed to the side of a relatively large tree to use as cover before the cyan dot could reach me.

I knew there was no way I could outrun the cyan coloured dot approaching my location, and my location would still be visible on the other person's map.

But that was fine because it was only the general location that would be revealed, not the pin location of where I was.

Although I had a feeling that the cyan coloured dot approaching was Anna, I didn't want to risk being out in the open, and although the method I was currently using couldn't help much in this case, I didn't have much time to do something better and could only continue to be cautious.

This continued for a few more seconds as I watched the cyan-colored dot get closer to my location, and when it did, I saw a huge figure dash through the sky, bringing a gush of wind with it, and turning to bring my head outside a little from behind the tree I was using as a cover to peek at what it was that flew in the air just now and was currently circling around in the air, I saw a familiar figure.

Well I saw two familiar figures, one of whom was holding another familiar figure.

It was Anna, and she was holding Mia in her hands and flying in the air with her crow.

When I saw this, I came out from behind the tree and waved to Anna, who had turned to look at me the moment I moved.

When she saw this, she quickly descended to the ground and landed in front of me, while her crow continued to fly in circles in the air, occasionally looking at me.

When Anna dropped to the ground, I was about to say something to Anna in front of me as we got closer when Anna suddenly shook the sleeping Mia in her hands awake.

Seeing this confused me because it made no sense to suddenly wake the girl, but when I heard what Anna said next, I realized what was going on.

It appears that for some reason, someone decided not to leave the magical mansion with enough food and had to strave another person as a result.

Mia was forced to sleep due to hunger, so when Anna saw me, she decided to feed the starving girl first before we talked about anything else because we were still a considerable distance from the grassy hill that housed the bronze door underground.

Apart from that, she admitted that she wanted to eat as well, so she handed me the now-energetic Mia who saw her about to eat to carry in my arms as she took the canned food I gave her and began to wolf it down without regard for her image.

Mia did the same thing as she started eating quickly, but unlike Anna's disappearing image, Mia was more pleasant to look at than the abomination that was happening beside me.

It was simply too unsightly.

That just goes to show how hungry she is and how exhausted her energy is despite her physique.

As I reflected on this, I simply observed the two girls eating their meals as we made our way home, with no conversation taking place.

One ate beside me, the other in my arms, and even after they finished the canned food in their hands, they asked for seconds before asking for thirds.

Mia stopped eating after the third before falling asleep in my arms after a few seconds, and she didn't finish her food, so I gave it to Anna to finish.

Anna only stopped eating after the fifth canned food, and by then, the grassy hill that held the entrance to the entrance home was already in sight.

Seeing this, we both collaborated together to clear some of the traces we left behind before coming here, and then turned to clear the traces we left around the grassy hill before entering it.

As we descended the stairs leading to the bronze door, Anna and I had a brief conversation, but it wasn't about the message she had sent earlier in the day, but about random topics as we both knew we would be able to discuss the race issue more comfortably at home.

We can at least relax while we talk in there.

We finally arrived in front of the bronze door after a few more minutes of descending the stairs, and because I was using one hand to coat my hand to light the surroundings and the other to hold the sleeping Mia, Anna was the one to open the door, and upon entering the alternate dimension, she closed it before we both made our way to the mansion.

But as we got closer to the mansion, we started hearing sounds in the distance, and when I saw a magic arrow being shot in the air, I didn't need to be told who was currently in the alternate dimension.

'I don't think that was Emma's shot, though', I thought as Anna and I slowly made our way to where I spotted the magic arrow.
