Since Adrian was dragged away, he decided that he needed a break from playing. He also needed to exercise in the real world to make sure that he is rehabilitating properly. He has been able to take a few steps without the aid of the exoskeleton which is why he is excited.
What he is not excited for is the excited look that her mother has when she noticed his progress. She even dared to say that Adrian is ready for slight practice even with the aid of the exoskeleton. It took quite a bit of begging and looking at his father to make sure that his mother does not think like that for a while.
He might pull all the muscles in his body if he does the slight exercise that his mother is saying. He could feel getting a bit of weight though since he does not move as much as before. If his mother did not control his diet, then he would probably be putting on quite a few pounds.
He decided to watch the livestream that Amelia posted about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. It had useful information that can give hints on getting the mythical tier treasure chest. It seems that one trace means clues on all four of the horsemen instead of information of just one of them.
He initially thought that the trace would be one for each, but it is actually about all four of them. It might also be related to their story progression. The trace that Amelia unlocked is about the origins of the Four Riders. The other thought that came to his head is the livestreams of the fights with the Four Horsemen.
It is quite difficult looking for their location as it changes every seven days if they are not in combat. The location will then change after every combat. Each horseman has been encountered at least once in random locations and the skills of each have been exposed but they are very difficult to kill.
The closest one would be guild that mostly had undead, but their chances were ruined by people that wanted to kill steal. Adrian guessed that they might have killed the Horseman of Death if there were no players that plotted to steal the glory. It was the most optimum location to kill the Horseman of Death but that now a pipe dream.
'
Each horseman does not return to a location that they have visited, or they players do not know yet. They really need to find all traces to extend the countdown. He is worried that something terrible might happen to them if the countdown reaches zero.
"I just hope that the traces would be found. It does not matter on which side gets it first." Adrian thought as he relaxed a bit before jumping back into the game.
Adrian logged back inside the game is currently sorting out the mess that he created. He already informed Piggy Bank of the deal with the two kingdoms, but he is being scolded with the attack against the second kingdom. Not only did he create havoc there, but he also revealed to everyone that a demon is once again rampaging.
"I was not rampaging. They imprisoned my friend. Did you know that they were harnessing the mana of every prisoner there like a mana factory? I thought that thing was illegal." Adrian stated.
"The other races have expressed their concerns and they will band together when needed against us. We are not powerful enough to fight the coalition of the other races. Even the races under our care are not in peak condition. The only reason that they are letting us do anything we want in the main world is due to the fact that we do not interfere with the power structure here." Ascalor stated.
Ascalor is having a headache about the things that Adrian did. He could respect the revival of the Church of the Twin Gods because he is their champion but attacking a neighboring kingdom and getting in alliance with another is a different case.
"Do not be harsh on the boy, Ascalor. He only exposed the darkness of that kingdom. From what I learned; no casualties were seen on the soldiers there. He held back just enough and only took on a defensive stance. Plus, a barrier that could seal a demon is something that we should fear should it fall into the wrong hands." Koronn stated.
"I agree with Koronn. Plus, the alliance was only for the food situation of the other kingdoms. They will no longer need to go to war with us if we provide them with food. The angels were also behind it which means they are plotting something. We need to start becoming vigilant with them." Bronx stated.
"We already have our hands full from the increasing spatial rifts. Those followers of the Dark Gods might be laying low but that means that they are also plotting something. They already summoned a dark god once in the main world! If one could fully descend without us knowing, then it might as well be the end of the world." Ascalor stated.
"It is not like this is the first time that the world ended." Koronn stated which made Adrian's ears suddenly perk up.
"What do you mean that it is not the first time that the world has ended?" Adrian asked which made Ascalor glare at Koronn.
"What! He can know it. We are already getting free treatment in his territory. We might as well tell some of the secret of the world." Koronn stated which made Adrian look at him with a new light. Adrian is a sucker when it comes to lore.
"I agree as well. It might change his rather laid-back behavior if he knows about this." Bronx added.
"Ho! To think that the muscle brain is supporting me. Did you eat something good today?" Koronn stated as he did not expect this backing.
"Fine. We can at least share that." Ascalor stated.
'This chapter is updated by N(o)V(e)lB(i)n.',
"So, tell me! Please!" Adrian begged but they did not tell him via words of mouth.
Ascalor flicked Adrian's forehead and numerous visions suddenly flooded his brain. He suddenly got transported to the battlefield in ancient times. He was beside a greater demon back then that looks like Ascalor. He tried calling for the ones near him, but they cannot hear him nor touch them.
All that Adrian is seeing is an illusion or something shown in his mind. He saw the world being extremely broken to the point that everything is in shatters. Even the sky looked like it was torn apart by something incredibly powerful.
The people were getting pushed around by the dark gods and numerous areas are overrun by the monsters created by them. The Asmodians were already extremely exhausted as they were the main force in battling the dark gods. The Noblesse of the Daemos at the time proposed the ultimate solution that could either save the world of utterly destroy it.
With the combined might of all seven hundred seventy seven Noblesse, they thought of separating the planet into multiple different dimensions. They planed on separating it into multiple words so that the places run over by the followers of the dark gods will not be able to propagate more.
The world back then was a thousand times bigger, and it was called Pangea instead of Nebulon. The seven hundred seventy seven Noblesse sacrificed their life to create the spell called Dimension Shatter. They even used the Eye of the Void to aid them in using the spell which made it even easier.
The seven hundred seventy seven Noblesse successfully casted the spell but it killed all of them in backlash. The Eye of the Void also got lost in the fragmenting realities as it vanished when the Dimension Shatter Spell was finished. The remaining Noblesse that was not heavily injured continued the battle in the new main world called Nebulon.
In the end, most of the Noblesse sacrificed their lives with the Asmodians to create the division between the planes of existence. The sacrifice of the numerous Noblesse was not forgotten as they were the reason why the war turned in their favor.
[You have learned a small clue about the Eye of the Void.]
[If you find a solid trace of the Eye of the Void then the Racial Quest: Beings of the Void will begin.]
Adrian is shocked upon learning of the real reason why the demons now are severely weakened despite them being very powerful back then. What he did not expect is the fact that he got a notification that prompted him of the racial quest to unlock the Daemos race.
This is an incredibly rare chance that would not have presented itself if he did not go on a rampage. He thought of doing it again but he might really get punished by the elders of he really do it again.
