Chapter 61：The Descent of the Twin Gods

Adrian wondered if it was raining weapons or something because if it is, he hopes it would rain forever. The sword was already a good shield for them then what's more if it were an actual shield. Adrian looked at the shield intently like when he looked at the black sword and he once again saw runic characters of which some were familiar and the others a total mystery. He was once again assaulted by the sensation of having his sub job class mastery rising.

[You have seen runic characters that are not of this mortal plane but failed to comprehend completely. Unable to replicate the runes for Symphony of Life.]

[The Scribe's Intuition skill has increased to Mastery level 9 from Mastery level 5.]

[Scribe beginner level 4 has increased to beginner level 7 due to discovering runes not of this plane of existence.]

The sound of the system prompt was like music to Adrian's ears because he could hear his mastery rising due to his unique circumstance. Adrian now has a rough idea on how to increase his mastery level quicker though he felt that deep inside opportunities like this are hard to come by. As soon as this was over, he would go to different sites that are reported to have runic symbols and languages but he would only do it in passing if he ever stumble near their locations because his main priority is to level up his main job class not his sub-job class.

After a few minutes of constant bombarding, Argent stopped because there was no longer any energy in her hands and she was sure that the pests are already dead by now. She did not realize that a shield descended to the ground and conjured up barriers to protect Adrian's group. Once all the dust settled, the look on Argent's face was of pure annoyance because another mysterious force protected the pests that attacked her. She was so furious but she could not move due to the excessive use of magical energy and the forceful usage of it just to destroy these pests. Now, she thinks that they are more like cockroaches rather than pests because they are becoming harder to kill.

Argent did not felt fear because she used the power of her new contractors to bind the pests. The binding would not dissipate unless she gets killed or be removed by someone like a Pope of the churches affiliated with 'good' which would not be possible because she already locked this area with her barrier. What made her worried are the two weapons that came from somewhere. She used the skill Detect Life but was unable to get a response. Detect Life is an epic skill that can be learned by any magic based job classes at level 200. Not only is it an epic skill but it also comes with hard restrictions.

Skill: Detect Life

Tier: Epic

Effect: Uses the user's magic power to sweep the surroundings in a radius of 50 meters. Cannot be used while moving.

Cooldown: 1 hour

Cast Time: Instant

Mana Cost: 10% of users Maximum Mana

This skill is used to find hidden targets and when its mastery is upgraded the search radius also becomes bigger. When Argent used this skill, it literally spanned the whole Silver Moores. The only response she got was the pests in front of her which made her suspicious.

" Maybe it is one of their skills but why use this now rather than earlier?" Argent thought and since she could not question them due to her neck and vocal chords barely recovering. She also cannot move due to extreme fatigue due to pusher herself too much. She would be able to move in about five minutes and she thought," That would be the end of their life by then."

Argent was bidding her time when the sword that was pierced to the ground suddenly became smaller and became one meter in length instead of its first form that was five meters. The black sword floated on on air and suddenly spun backwards and pierced Adrian's chest. Interestingly enough, no blood was spilled and instead he was fine that even his HP did not decrease. Black smoke started forming from the ground and was gathering towards Adrian. He was wondering what was happening because he started floating and black smoke was gathering towards him in greater mass. He then heard a system prompt.

[You binding force that was restricting your movements has been dispelled by an even greater force. You can now regain mobility.]

[Your body is experiencing Possession. Cannot be dispelled because an almighty being will be borrowing your body.]

Adrian then heard a the voice of a male that was full of masculine energy and force that would make the world itself bend before it.

"I will take over from here my Champion. You are not her opponent as of yet." the male voice said.

The black sword suddenly merged with Adrian's body and he was no longer in control. The black smoke became thicker and formed a black sphere of smoke with Adrian at its core. Not far from him, the shield that protected them from harm by generating a barrier flew towards Marlon and fused with his chest. He then received the same notifications that Adrian did when the sword pierced his chest.

[You binding force that was restricting your movements has been dispelled by an even greater force. You can now regain mobility.]

[Your body is experiencing Possession. Cannot be dispelled because an almighty being will be borrowing your body.]

The shield then started merging with Marlon's body.Instead of smoke, the plants below his feet started growing at a fast pace and started covering Marlon from head to toe. He looked like a mummy with plants as bandages. Contrary to the voice Adrian heard, the voice Marlon heard was filled with feminine energy and warmth that could melt even the coldest of hearts.

"Let me borrow your strength for a moment my childe." the female voice said.

Argent who saw this happening started to become terrified because she started feeling immense divine power coming from Adrian and he wasn't even a priest. A few seconds later she also felt the same immense divine power from the elf priest. She did not know how both the pests dispelled the binding that could even bind demigods but she did not want to learn how. Her instincts as a banshee started to kick in and she saw the shadow looming over her. She was predicting her own death. She mustered every remaining energy on her body to repair her vocal chords quickly because she needed them to use a communication spell. She felt like an eternity but it was only seconds in the real world. Argent started to panic because she could feel it. She could feel death's door waiting for her to open it. When she could partially speak, she started shouting words.

" Lich King! Veldrax! Hurry and retrieve me from this place!" Argent started shouting with a hoarse voice and her neck even receiving more injuries as she started screaming for her life.

" I believe nobody could save you now, filthy betrayer." a male voice suddenly spoke from Adrian's location.

The source of the male voice was now visible scene. He wore a black helmet that was fashioned like that of medieval knights in Europe. He wore armor that was made of a black metal that seems to absorb all light. The armor had three spikes protruding on its shoulder guard. He wore a cloak reminiscent of the night sky filled with stars. He looked like a human dark knight but the difference is half of his body is incorporeal. What made his lower half was his cloak and black smoke emitting from below him like it was billowing out of him continuously.

"Do not be so harsh on her brother. Today would be her final day living." a female voice was heard and it came from Marlon's direction.

She had on a translucent veil that hides her face but you could roughly see her face and one could tell that it was extremely beautiful. She was wearing a white peplos which was a long tunic and her skin was smooth as jade and white as marble. She had golden ornaments adorning both her hands and feet and even a crown that was made of the most beautiful flowers resting on her beautiful head. She was lying down on a bed made of roses that did not have thorns on the stems. She looked relaxed as she is lying down with her alluring pose.

"Impossible. This cannot be happening for real." these were the words that left Argents mouth because she could not believe the phenomenon that she was experiencing right now.

It was then all the Players in Pandemonium read two world messages that would shock them for the rest of their gaming life.

[A God has descended.]
