Chapter 1277 - A Change In Plans

The Holy Core.

People would treat it as a myth or a made-up story if anyone ever told them about it.

It was akin to someone telling a modern-day person to believe that the legends of Hercules weren't just myths.

No matter how one examined it, people would take it as a made-up story of some sort.

And that was how the Holy core matter was treated.

In fact, over 99.9% of people had never even heard of it in their lives!

Holy core? What was that?

(?^?)

There was hardly any information about the Holy core. 

But as you know, in human history, there were always people who always found ways to be black sheep amongst the herd.

That is, way back ages ago, some greedy people tried to gather information about the Holy Core, trying to steal it for themselves.

But before they could lift a finger, they all met their demise, and their books and records of it all were destroyed... Or so it seemed.

hehehehehehehe!

Those people had been leaving clues to the matter in places that one wouldn't think to look at. 

And It wasn't until centuries later that a young man found a journal of his ancestors, mentioning something bizarre in them.

.

Hmhm.

That young man happened to be the Head of the Pirate organization at the time.

And thus began his search for this treasure that no one had heard of or believed existed.

Now, 500 and something years later, the man's dreams have been fulfilled through his descendants.

Of course, they also worked alongside the Morg monarchs because some of the clues were located in places that they couldn't access without permission... Like the Abian treasury, which had a single art style painting that was a clue to the whole mystery. 

The revelation was so mind-blowing that it shocked countless people silly. 

Some clues were also hidden in other continents too.

And at one point, they had even risked it to infiltrate Lampe and steal something from those Adonis bastards.

F***!

They had done a lot just to get to this stage.

All Monarchs in Morgany were in on it, as well as several nobles who kept the matter top secret too.

It was also one of the real reasons why they conquered the seas and dominated the lands. 

They were out on a treasure hunt, as though they were in some sort of Indiana Jones movie.

And now, since they knew practically nothing about the Holy Core, they had to research, experiment on it to find out what was so special about this Holy core.

Nonetheless, the system knew that it should take a lot of time before these Morg humans could understand and fully grasp the terror of the Holy Core.

However, that didn't stop it from feeling the impending danger from the situation.

The Current Technology vs the Holy Core's capabilities. 

Sigh... Its host was bound to have a difficult time in future.

.

[You old bullies! I knew it was a bad idea right from the start. Didn't I tell you all not to gift my world with that Holy Core? Bad guys! Bad guys! You're all bullying me because of my age, aren't you?!]

[Alright. Alright, settle down everyone. There's no use getting angry over what's done and over with. The core is already uncovered, so we must focus on what to do next.]

[Hmhm... Even though we can't directly interfere with what's going on in this world, with the tasker around, we should be able to turn the situation around pretty, no?]

[ It's hard to say when it involves the Holy core. The tasker might not be able to pull this off.]

[I'm afraid I have to disagree with you, Claudius. The thing is already reacting now. So we only need the tasker to deal with things before the Morg humans unlock its full potential. It's just that with the tasker's current strength, it's impossible to have a chance against the Holy Core's potentials. And that's why we should gift the tasker with new Alien technologies to prepare for the worst.]

[Hmmm… Not a bad idea. But whatever we gift the tasker with, shouldn't go against the natural order of things. And while these Morg humans focus on finding out all they can about the core, the tasker can also develop faster. Because just as you said, with his current strength, it would be impossible to go up against the Holy Core's powers!]

[Hmhm. The tasker needs to develop fast and acquire the Holy core before the Morgs can unleash 100% of its powers, or else it would be too late for the tasker.]

[Then it is decided! Now Go back to the tasker at once.]

Bang!

The system, who had been patiently listening and waiting for its orders, swiftly vanished from the so it as instructed.

Its host may not know it, but at this moment, the wheels of change had already begun, leaving him in an unfavourable position.

That is, because of the emergence of the core, they couldn't afford to waste time anymore.

It was time to speed things up!

Look.

After the Holy core got retrieved, then they would afford to slow down again.

But for now, things would get a whole lot quicker and faster than one could imagine.

And Landon, who was still thinking about planning a sweet honeymoon with Lucy in the near future, would soon find out that he wouldn't even have a second's rest from here on out.

Why? All because the heavens had left their stupid core in Hertfilia.

(:T^T:)

.

Back in Baymard, Landon had already freshened up, taken his shower and had also eaten a scrumptious breakfast in bed with his darling wife.

Landon smiled so much that his cheekbones were already hurting a bit.

But did he care? Nope!

Bahahahahahahahaha!

For the last few days, that evil system of his hadn't bothered or hijacked him as he feared.

You know, in the beginning, he was afraid that the bastard would kidnap him on his wedding day.

But he waited and waited, with no sight of the dog system. And even at this relaxation time after the wedding, the system hadn't bothered him at all.

So how could he not be happy?

Landon felt as though bells of joy were ringing all around him for having the liberty to enjoy these past few days in peace.

Well... Now, even if he had to brief those going out for missions, that was essentially the only thing he had planned.

Other than that, he just had to spend time with his friends and Lucy, as though they were tourists in Baymard.

Aiyy~

What a good life this was.

Ding!

[Host. There's been a change of plans.]

'_'

Landon's smile suddenly froze in place... 

F***!
