After a series of bus changes, the three of us finally arrived at the Artifacts Room. It was a substantial building with an imposing exterior, standing as a testament to the importance of the artefacts housed within it.
The outer facade of the building was made of gleaming white marble, adorned with intricate engravings of various weapons and mystical symbols. Tall, arched windows allowed natural light to filter into the room, creating an inviting atmosphere for those approaching.
As we entered, the sight that greeted us was nothing short of astonishing. The Artifacts Room was vast and filled with an array of displays and showcases. Replicas of weapons and equipment excavated by Wartime agent demons were meticulously arranged throughout the room.
Each artefact was positioned behind reinforced glass, and information plaques accompanied them, detailing their origins, historical significance, and any notable magical properties they possessed.
But what truly brought life to the room was the lively chatter and laughter of parents and children who roamed the exhibit, their faces filled with wonder and excitement.
—Daddy, what's that?
—Oh, that's the Armor made of A rank monster....
It seemed that the artefacts held a universal appeal even to the youngest of future heroes.
I felt a shiver run down my spine as I stepped into the bustling room, knowing that today, within these very walls, an incident would unfold—one that I had a hand in orchestrating.
As we stepped I did the big hall where l we could see all types of weapons, artefacts etc.
"Okay as I said I'm going to section where wands are kept."
As Isabella expressed her interest in wands and magic spells, I noticed her graceful figure moving gracefully toward that section of the Artifacts Room. She seemed genuinely captivated by the magical relics on display.
"And I'm going to see some Swords over there, what about you Lucas?"
"Oh me? Well, I'm just going to look for whatever interests me." I said to him, he nodded at my words.
Meanwhile, Adrian, ever the sword enthusiast, had his eyes set on the section devoted to As Isabella expressed her interest in wands and magic spells, I noticed her graceful figure moving gracefully toward that section of the Artifacts Room we're Wands are kept. She seemed genuinely captivated by the magical relics on display.
"Alright, I'll meet you both later," I said with a casual wave, not wanting to intrude on the interests. My intention was clear—I needed to locate the individual who would become the focal point of today's incident.
I observed Isabella and Adrian for a moment as they ventured into their respective sections of the room. They were unaware of the events that would soon unfold, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.
With that in mind, I began to navigate the sea artefacts and relics, my eyes scanning the room for any signs of unusual activity or individuals who stood out from the rest of the people.
10 minutes later...
As I continued my search through the bustling Artifact Room, frustration began to set in.
"Fuck."
Anyway, this is the first time I'm having a proper conversation with him.
I felt strange talking to the main character I wrote. I wasn't sure how to describe this feeling, but it wasn't pleasant.
Adrian was handsome, exceptional in martial arts, and had a fantastic personality. He was too perfect, so he felt inhumane. That was why some readers rooted for Aric for his bad personality.
Anyway, it should be about time.
I tapped on the ground with my sneakers.
"Then..."
Right when Adrian was saying something...
—BOOM!
A thunderous sound reverberated through the museum. In an instant, everyone became silent.
Koong. Koong. Koong. Repeated thuds pulsed through the deathly silence.
"Kyaaaak!"
"What is that!?"
Panic swept through the Artifact Room like wildfire as the thunderous boom reverberated through the hall.
Ordinary visitors screamed and rushed for cover, while the more experienced individuals huddled inside the Artifact Room.
"Stay here! Don't go out!"
Adrian's commanding voice cut through the chaos, instructing everyone to stay put and not venture outside.
The eerie sound of something breaking echoed in the background, heightening the anxiety in the room. An ominous feeling hung in the air as the unknown threat drew nearer.
Outside, the A-rank monster and its subordinates launched their assault on the museum. The situation was dire, but the presence of an A-rank monster alone wasn't enough to overwhelm the combined forces of the Heroes. Help would arrive soon, but in the meantime, the Artifact Room provided a temporary sanctuary from the impending danger.
However, there was an additional concern – the Fallen Human. A chilling thought crossed the minds of those inside the room, knowing that a demon's slave could be lurking among them, potentially causing more chaos and danger than the monster outside.
Amidst the uncertainty, the group waited anxiously, hoping for the Heroes to arrive swiftly and restore order to the chaotic Artefact Room.
They need a hero.
