Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!-Chapter 66 Choosing Job And Evolution Requirements[2]
?Choosing Job and Evolution Requirements[2]
[Ace POV],
To begin with, all jobs in the common grade are removed from the list. As long as nothing is wrong with my brain, I will never choose a common job over the jobs above it.
There must be a reason why the jobs have grades to begin with. It could be because one job is more special and powerful than the other. So, as long as I have a rational mind, I'm not going to choose jobs in the common grade.
Something I've noticed about all of the jobs listed on the panel is that they are all related to me in some way. Perhaps this is what the Primordial Chronicle meant by my records.
When the end of the old world arrived, the first weapons I used were the DMX-367 DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN and the Normal Grade Hunter Recurve Bow and Quiver. Perhaps this is why jobs involving archers and guns became available.
And as for the jobs involving swords, well, I still use a twin blade as my primary weapon, so it's not surprising. The martial warrior should have appeared as a result of my martial arts knowledge and abilities.
The Alchemist job does not require much thought as to why it appeared.
Though it appears that I am thinking about which job to take, the truth is that I am only thinking about the Epic and Legendary grades. Since I'm going to pick a job, I'll naturally go for the best one.
The Alchemist job is the reason I have yet to make a decision. If I had to choose the best, it would naturally be one with the legendary grade, but the problem is that I realized I don't know enough about alchemy to do so.
If the jobs of Magic Swordsman and Alchemist were switched, I would choose Magic Swordsman without hesitation because the name makes it easy to relate some things to the job, but I can't do the same with Alchemist because my knowledge of alchemy is too limited.
If I were to assign them roles, a magic swordsman would be a combat role and an alchemist would be a support role. Being support is not my style, and I don't think I have time to learn how to be one when I can't even protect myself fully.
It's rank 1 monsters now; nobody knows what it will be in the future, but due to the job's grades, I'm still undecided.
It should come as no surprise that an epic-grade job cannot compare to a legendary-grade job, just as an inferior-grade item cannot compare to a normal-grade item, a normal-grade item cannot compare to a rare-grade item, and a rare-grade item cannot compare to an epic-grade item.
From what I've observed, the difference between grades is not as simple as a step forward, rather there is a significant difference. I'm not sure how significant the job grade difference is, but I must carefully consider which job to choose.
After some deliberation, I decided on the legendary job of Alchemist.
Since there is a better option in front of me, I will undoubtedly choose the best. Even if the job ends up being a support one, it will not disappoint because it is of legendary caliber.
It's more or less a bet.
There's also the fact that choosing a supporting role does not preclude me from maintaining certain fighting abilities.
After considering this, I decided to become an Alchemist. As soon as I made my decision, the words on the panel in front of me began to change as new texts began to appear.
[You have chosen Alchemist],
[Alchemists are existence who aim to create, shape, manipulate and seek to discover the origin of all things. What happened and why it happened. How and why it came to be. An alchemist's path is to seek the truth and origin. Only those with a hint of worthiness are given this job. To advance to Rank 1, evolve, and show that you have the necessary qualifications to become an alchemist, you must meet the following requirements],
[Kill Unranked Monster using Magic: [0/30]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster using magic: [0/5]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with the aid of Alchemy: [0/3]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with a single hit with the aid of Alchemy: [0/1]],
I was speechless for a few moments when I saw the requirement to advance.
Is it possible that the primordial chronicle does not want me to have a job and die unranked?
The difficulty is too hard!
Aside from the first requirement, the others appear to be designed for someone on a suicide mission. They are all involving Rank 1 monsters.
It should be noted that even the Goblin lord we killed that was rank 1 was the weakest in Rank 1.
And what does the primordial chronicle mean by killing a rank 1 monster in a single hit?
Heavens! Even exams weren't this difficult.
There's also the part where I have to kill monsters using both magic and alchemy. It appears that I will need to devote more time to this subject.
When I realized I couldn't change my choice and could only choose once, I resigned to my fate and began planning how to fulfill the requirement when another text appeared on the primordial chronicle panel.
....
[Detected that the entity-Ace Blaze has a strand from ???? ?? and has used it],
[Detecting Jobs],
[Job Selected],
[Unique Job],
*Alchemist Lord ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢
...
When I saw the texts on the panel, I was reminded of the golden strand that emerged from the black orb. I temporarily forgot about it because nothing unusual happened when I used it.
I recall its function was to grant the user a unique class related to the class they chose, and mine is Alchemist Lord. To be honest, it's only a name difference. Perhaps the lord means much more, but since I don't know if I refuse the unique job now, it will vanish, I chose the Alchemist lord as I saw it.
[You have chosen Alchemist Lord],
[Alchemist lords, a unique existence even among alchemists. Perhaps there is more after seeking the truth and origin?]
[A unique job that only 100 people in the universe can have, and you have the chance and opportunity to be one of them, but you must prove yourself],
[To advance to Rank 1, evolve and show that you have the necessary qualifications to become an alchemist lord, you must meet the following requirements],
[Kill Unranked Monster using Magic: [0/100]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster using magic: [0/50]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with the aid of Alchemy: [0/30]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with a single hit with the aid of Alchemy: [0/1]],
[Time Limit: 50 Days: 24 Hours: 59 Minutes: 14 Seconds],
[If you fail to pass the requirement to Advance to Rank 1 with the Alchemist Lord job within the time limit, the job will vanish and you will never be able to choose this job again as a choice to evolve to rank 1],....
For the first time in my life, I could clearly sense that I was irritated when I saw the requirements to advance to Rank 1 with the Alchemist Lord job.
Even difficulties have boundaries.
What kind of task is this?
I was confident that I could easily complete the first requirement as long as nothing unexpected happen. After all, they're just unranked monsters.
But, starting with the second requirement, everything I saw was insane.
I had far more rank 1 monsters to kill than Alchemist required.
Maybe if I had more time, I could finish the second and third requirements, but what about the fourth?
To kill a monster of rank 1 in a single hit?
Perhaps if I were to just used a sword to kill one in a single hit, I could complete the task, but it is clearly stated here that I have to kill one with alchemy.
Or maybe I could look for an easier one to kill but the rate at which I've seen these creatures grow, I'll be lucky if I meet one.
With the time limit, the difficulty only increased.
50 Days? or, more accurately, 51 days. However, this does not change the fact that time is of the essence.
This is equivalent to forcing me to enter a monster den full of rank one monsters. At the very least, this will allow me to meet the requirements.
Isn't alchemy supposed to be a supporting character? Why do I have to kill?
My understanding of Alchemy appears to be seriously flawed.
But there must be a reason why this is a unique job. It also stated that only 100 people can hold this position in the universe.
This more or less proves that my assumption of other civilizations based on magic is correct because planet Spe cannot be considered a universe.
Of course, this is my assumption.
Seeing the requirements for just being an Alchemist Lord, I can see why only 100 people can have this job.
The requirement alone will kill a large number of people, as it appears to be a series of suicide missions. I'm curious if this is true of all unique jobs.
Even though the requirements seem strict, I'll do my very best to meet them, so I'm not giving up just yet.
As I previously stated, there must be a reason why it is unique. It makes me wonder what would happen if I were to advance with a legendary or unique job.
