Encountering humans with a Job[1]

[Ace POV],

I slowly opened my eyes after opting to take a break for a few minutes and turned to my teammates, who had already stopped checking their status as they were finishing their food.

Seeing this, I repositioned my sitting posture and waited for them to finish before deciding what to do next.

After some thought, I concluded that our first priority should be to locate a place to stay, but with our location being a big forest, the only thing that can count as a shelter for us to dwell in are caves.

This is without a doubt the best spot I can think of right now, but we need to find one first otherwise all of this will be just thoughts.

I was thinking about these things when I was interrupted by Anna's voice calling my name and pulling me out of my reverie.

"That reminds me," she remarked at first, then paused to take a sip from the bottled water in her hand before continuing, "Crow discovered and encountered a lot of monsters in this forest."

"It's not surprising given the number of unranked monsters, but why are you interested in this?" I asked since I wanted to know why Anna was interested in unranked monsters, and I knew she'd tell me because she wouldn't have called my name if she wasn't going to talk in the first place, but what she said next was unexpected.

"No, you got it all wrong," she responded, shaking her head before continuing.

"When I said crow encountered a large number of monsters, I never said they were unranked. I meant to imply that when scouting, Crow informed me that all of the monsters he encountered were rank 1 monsters ", she explained."

"Every one of them?" I inquired, and she responded with a nod.

"Not one unranked monster?" I inquired once more.

"Not even one," she confirmed.

Hearing this, I ignored the crow's 'he' and reflected on the guardian's words.

The Guardian stated that the challenge trial was held in the first place to pick those who were 'qualified' and 'prepared' to confront the obstacles in the true world, so I expected to face significant difficulties here, but I did not expect the world to be a den for ranked species.

Perhaps Anna is mistaken and there are unranked creatures in the places that the crow did not scout, but based on the tone of her voice, it appears that the crow did Scout a sufficient distance for her to bother telling me her thoughts.

It may not appear to be much, but the strongest rank 1 monster I've seen to date was the Rank 1 Fire Eagle I fought with today, and even the Rank 1 Fire Eagle was ranked among the weakest rank 1 monsters.

I'm not sure what the level ceiling is for rank 1 species, but I guess it's at least 35. That is, we haven't even begun to confront rank 1 species and are still in a 'playground' for 'Newbies'.

There's also the matter that if what Anna said is true and all of the creatures here are Rank 1 species, then there must be stronger monsters nearby.

Monsters that have reached the pinnacle of rank 1 or monsters that are even stronger.

Monsters of rank 2.

This was not an irrational notion because, unlike humans, monsters develop at an alarmingly rapid rate.

Thinking about it now, humanity was at a disadvantage from the start when we entered the true world.

Perhaps, according to the primordial chronicle, one only counts as something when one evolve to become a rank 1 specie.

This was inspired by what happened when I attempted to explore the sub-options in [Ranking].

Perhaps, to the primordial chronicle, unranked beings like ourselves, no matter how powerful, are merely ants.

Perhaps being stronger makes us larger ants.

'All right, it's decided,' I thought as I began making arrangements for the future.

The main goal right now is to find a location to live, and then to hunt rank 1 monsters and practice alchemy.

I was wondering about how I would finish my job quest if I was still on the team because everyone has their own job quest that needs to be completed.

I was thinking about parting ways before because staying in the team would be bad for my growth, which I didn't want since the job I was aiming for was a unique one, but I don't think it's necessary now that all the monsters here are supposedly rank 1, which contradicts my original belief that rank 1 monsters were relatively rare.

As I considered this, I began discussing my ideas with the others, who, predictably, did not object but agreed.

Though no one spoke, I am certain that everyone should have considered this issue because if we decided to stubbornly stay together, which was stupid since it gave more disadvantages than advantages because it would delay our progress, conflicts would undoubtedly arise one day, and I was not planning on being a part of it.

But things are different today because rank 1 monsters don't appear to be as scarce.

They look to be quite separated from one another though.

And though their numbers made it more perilous, it still had advantages.

As long as I play my decks well, I feel I will be able to barely finish my job requirements before the time limit runs out.

With this concept in mind, many plans began to form in my head.
