A long Awaited Fruit[1]

[Ace POV],

As I passed through the gates and got closer to the main building of the mansion, I reflected on everything that had happened.

When I asked Emma if she could mix her element into a neutral spell that had been released since she said it was possible earlier, I didn't expect her to suddenly cast the magic arrow again and succeed without mishaps and in front of my eyes, add the light element to the spell while also succeeding in one try.

Given her previous performance with casting the spell, this was unexpected.

If anything, she should have tried more times to combine her element with the magical arrow.

And all she said when she succeeded was that her previous experience casting neutral spells had helped her, but it should be noted that she had only recently come into contact with neutral spells in the room, so what's up with her experience? Where did she get the ability to cast the spell so easily?

It was too abrupt, and while the magic arrows she cast and mixed with her element were all a little unstable, they did not lose their forms and, in fact, continued to show signs of improvement as Emma got better at it.

It truly felt like a ruse.

And how did I fare in spell casting?

It was dreadful.

I was simply garbage.

I couldn't even get through the first phrase of the spell incantation because I couldn't get the tonation and timing right.

Unlike the other rewards I and the others had received that were written in different languages, this one was in English, which we both knew.

Most of the time, the primordial chronicle's thoughts are incomprehensible.

But even with the language, I was having some difficulty that Emma couldn't take it any longer and said we'd practice magic later when she made a schedule for both of us.

When I heard that, I immediately agreed.

This was not me looking for a reason to reduce my workload.

As I considered these things, I opened the mansion's door as I walked in with Emma, who closed it shortly after our arrival.

I began to hear sounds before we could get a certain distance away from the door.

As Emma followed me, I came to a halt and made my way to the source of the sound.

Maybe she was as curious as I was.

We weren't too concerned about anything dangerous in a world without owners because the sound came from the mansion we had just brought.

As I was thinking about this, we tracked the sound down to the living room, where there was a hole in the center.

It was preferable to refer to it as a pathway with stairs leading to the basement rather than a hole.

Yes, there was a basement in the building, and it was on the map of the magical mansion.

This basement was not one of the 18 rooms I mentioned on the map.

There were a few more rooms in the mansion that were not explored. The primordial chronicle inputted in my head the energy room as an example. This room was not on the map, so only I knew about it.

I should go later and figure out how to recreate the energy that the primordial chronicle was talking about and what exactly the energy is.

Thinking about this, Emma and I moved closer to the hole, and when we saw the stairs leading down, we entered the pathway and took the stairs.

Since the magic building's energy had been depleted, the entire structure was dark, and going down to the basement made our surroundings even darker.

Seeing this, Emma and I continued our descent, lighting up the surroundings with our element.

Fortunately, unlike the stairs outside the bronze door, it didn't take long for us to get close to the end, and before we reached it, we could see a light ahead of us.

When Emma and I saw this, we became a little more cautious, raising our guard and continuing on our way.

We saw the surroundings of the basement and the source of the light when we finally reached the bottom of the stairs and stepped on the ground.

When I saw the basement on the map provided in the mansion, I expected it to be large but not so large that there was insufficient space, but based on how things are in reality and not on the map, the area of the basement was sufficient for more than a few dozen people to play around.

As I continued forward, I noticed a source of light and discovered Anna and Chris in the middle of the basement, with Chris's hand coated in flame, causing the surrounding area to light up.

They were doing something strange right now.

Next to Anna was what appeared to be a bird nest, and beside her was her summoned crow.

They appeared to be constructing a crow's nest, which was odd given that it was done inside the building rather than outside.

And based on the structure of the bird nest, it appeared that it had been brought from the store and that Anna was just putting it together.

Seeing this, I finally got close to Anna and Chris.

I knew Anna and Chris were already aware of our arrival, so seeing no reaction from them as we approached had no effect on me.

"What are you doing?" As soon as I got close to Anna, I asked.

"I'm making a crow's nest," she said as I got close to her and before I could say anything, Anna spoke again.

"Crow does not like staying in the sun or where there is light for a long time and I also noticed that apparently, Crow has taste of his own so I just decided to do this.

Is there a problem?" she inquired, and I responded by shaking my head.

While everything was strange, it had no effect on me, so I ignored it as I left the basement without Emma and returned to the master bedroom I had left before as a few thoughts flashed through my mind.

For one thing, I needed to prepare well because I was going out tomorrow to continue my quest, and the thing is that as long as my reasoning is correct, tomorrow in this place will still be the same outside as I left it.

Apart from my second job requirement of simply killing rank 1 monsters, I still needed to use alchemy to complete the two other quests, so I had to practice alchemy as well.

What was also pressing was that even when I arrived in the alternate dimension, the timer for my job quest was still ticking, so there was nothing like staying here to strengthen myself before heading out to finish my quest.

I also needed to make time to practice the exercises and other rewards we received from the quest, but since this issue didn't need to be completed right away, it wasn't urgent and could be completed whenever I wanted.

As I was thinking about these things, I arrived at the door to the master bedroom, opened it, and made my way inside before finding a chair to sit on.

I called out the primordial chronicle in my head as a panel appeared in front of me.

After this occurred, I went straight to the contact section of the panel and attempted to contact my family.

....

[Contact],

[Enter Name], [Search Name],

[Contacts: None],

.....

Seeing this, I inputted the names I had in mind as the text on the panel in front of me disappeared as new ones appeared.

....

Enter Name],

'Agneya Blaze'

[Request cannot be sent to 'Agneya Blaze' as the individual is not in the True World],

[Enter Name],

'Lily Blaze'

[Request cannot be sent to 'Lily Blaze' as the individual is not in the True World],

Seeing this, I went away from [Contact] and did not attempt to try again as I knew the result will still be the same.

It was still the same message as before.

'I wonder how they're doing now,' I thought as I dismissed the panel in front of me and pulled something from my storage ring.

It was a familiar berry looking like fruit. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

It was the same fruit that enabled Chris to be offered a legendary job.

The awakening fruit.

'I wonder if I can awaken an element with this, and if so, which one?' I was thinking this as I ate the fruit and waited for something to happen.
