?Confrontation


    [Third Person POV],


    Meanwhile, while Ace and Emma dealt with matters in the dungeon, Anna and Chris were about to deal with their own as they stared at the figure in front of them.


    It was a bear-like monster that was standing on its two feet and had reached a height of 5 meters in this position.


    Though its level did not concern them, its height was rather daunting for the petite Anna and Chris, who was still developing.


    When Mia first saw the bear, she instinctively covered her head in Anna''s arms as the people capable of confronting the creature stared at it.


    [Rank 1 ck Bear Level 27],


    This level was negligible since the shadow crow could handle it by itself. Though the shadow crow was a summon designed for scouting, its fighting abilities were applicable, so they hadn''t been rmed since they saw the monster level, as it was only its height that was intimidating to the two rtively short people.


    "Go kill-," Anna was about to instruct her summon crow to kill the rank 1 ck bear when Chris spoke up.


    "Sister Anna, can you let me take this one?" Chris asked, gripping the sword tightly in his hands as he stared at the big monster in front of him.


    "Oh? It''s dangerous, don''t-." Anna was about to decline him when Chris interrupted her again.


    "Don''t worry sister Anna. After all, you are here ", he replied, attempting to reassure Anna that he would be fine.


    Anna, who saw this, hesitated and did not speak for a while.


    Though Chris'' level was low, no one''s level was low on the team because they were all at the same level, but there was still a gap between them.


    Ace, like Chris, was low-leveled when he faced the rank 1 fire eagle, but unlike Chris, Ace could fight even without any skills. He was even at a disadvantage since if he had fought with his des, the fight would have ended sooner.


    Emma was on the same level as him, but her fighting prowess with magic was undeniable.


    Anna didn''t need to fight because her crow could do it for her, but Chris was different from the rest of them, even though he was on the same level.


    For one thing, he didn''t have Anna''s aid, Emma''s magical gift, or Ace''s greatbat prowess.


    He was pretty average on the team despite the potential he has.


    Of course, he was only average in the team because of the people on the team, because if Chris were to be ced outside in the eyes of other people, he''d bebeled a semi-monster simply because of his potential.


    He had some fighting prowess since he exchanged a sword technique in the store, and his weapon also helped him along with his two magic elements. Chris''s main issue was hisck of experience. It wasn''t that the other members of the team had experience; rather, they all had advantages over Chris.


    Anna was about to refuse Chris''s request again, but she decided to ept it because he had experience fighting monsters before, and asking for her permission without going to kill the monster in the first ce shows his respect for her, even though he didn''t really need to.


    When she realized the monster in front of them was already getting ready to attack, she turned to Chris and spoke quickly.


    "All right, but be careful," she cautioned.


    If she saw that it was too much on him, she would tell the shadow crow to kill the monster because they couldn''t afford to have injuries as Emma was here to heal them if anything went wrong and the basic health pills in their hands were better for emergencies.


    It was preferable not to use them if they were unnecessary.<novelnext></novelnext>


    As Anna thought of these things, Chris charged at the monster.

    [Ace POV],


    After the old man and the people behind him did what I assume was a form of greeting which I and Emma somewhat awkwardly replicated, the old man spoke.


    "@#&@&#-#&@"


    ''Huh? ''What is thisnguage?'' I thought as I couldn''t understand a single word the old man said as Emma and I stared at him with nk expressions on our faces.


    "Ace, what do we do now?" Emma asked softly as I tried toe up with solutions to the new problem.


    I should have expected anguage barrier issue when I saw a civilization in the vige when we were teleported here, but it wasn''t my fault since a part of me still believed everything was pre-programmed.


    ''This has just gottenplicated,'' I thought as I heard the old man in front of me repeat some unrecognizable words several times before turning to face Emma and me with a strange expression.


    He probably noticed something was wrong, and with a problem like anguage barrier appearing as an impediment, how were we going to find clues if we couldn''t evenmunicate with the people here who were the victims?


    ''I need to fix this,'' I thought as an idea shed through my mind.


    Seeing this, I immediately called out the primordial chronicle in my head as I moved to the sub-option in the store section and saw what I was looking for after a few seconds.


    [Basic Universalnguage],


    I''m not sure if it was going to work, but ording to the primordial chronicle, this is supposed to be a universalnguage. In other words, it''s simr to English but with different styles.


    It was also reasonably priced for the current me, so I purchased it.


    If this doesn''t work, our quest will be even more difficult.


    [Buy Basic Universalnguage for 1 Gold Coin?],


    [Y/N],


    ''Yes''


    After the primordial chronicle confirmed my decision to buy the Basic Universalnguage, I felt a somewhat familiar sensation as a stream of information rushed into my head.


    After this, I returned my attention to what the old man in front of me was saying as I wanted to see if the Basic Universalnguage worked.
