Chapter 2103 Legacy Inheritances

Chapter 2103 Legacy Inheritances

The Academy realm has been in war many times.

The Academies fought with each other on virtual any metric one could imagine and that included conquest and slaughter. However, even in those myriad of wars, some wars were meant to be special.

And the war caused for claiming the legacy inheritance was one such war.

Within the Pocket dimensions that appeared that year, one of them had the legacy inheritance as the prize. Everyone wanted to claim it and one of the Norse Academy students managed to win it after clearing the quests of the pocket dimensions.

However, no Academy was willing to back down.

They openly challenged each other. Ambushes, assassinations, trickery. Everyone stooped so low in front of one inheritance that the prestige of all the Academies was drawn down the drain. In fact, that might be the only time when one of the Academies actually physically got destroyed.

Even the Elders were on each others' throats and the Deans had to step in and almost got into conflict.

All of this happened in the short span it took for the student to assimilate the inheritance and truly claim it as his. Finally, the Academies lost the actual reason to battle. Even if they kill that guy, they wouldn't get claim the inheritances.

But the war still went on for a while.

By then a lot of resentment brewed within themselves and they couldn't just let it go. Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

Finally, when the war spread way too far and wide into the realms outside the Academy realm and some really powerful figures intervened, they finally had the mind to sit and talk.

That was a nightmarish period and he for one would rather forget it ever happened.

"Legacy Inheritances?"

Dean repeated and Dayus nodded.

He finally pushed the document away and looked at Dayus intently.

"Zeus has prepared ten legacy inheritances of various elements. They are extremely strong. I don't know exactly what elements they are and if there are any variants, so I need to prepare a big crew to cover as many bases as possible.

For now, only I know exactly what the prize is and to look for it. The rest of the students don't. But I know for sure that they will attack me if they find out. That is why, I need the crew even more.

I need them to save me and help me out in the pocket dimensions and of course they will get to inherit these amazing rewards after that."

"You do know how much of a fuss these inheritances cause right?"

Dean asked and looking at Dayus' blank expression, it is apparent that he actually doesn't know the impact of it.

So, he told me briefly about the war.

"These are gifts from Zeus. Are you sure you just want to let it go with that as excuse?"

Dayus replied. Even though it did feel a bit ominous to think about what sort of war these legacy inheritances will bring, he knew he needs a crew. He cannot just give up on it.

Dean sighed. He then recalled what Pearl spoke to him before once.

"There is a vision to one of the oracles that the gods are going to create something special this time around. They will bless our region with rewards and I want to make sure that I get to control the people who can obtain them.

Of course the scale is obviously very different.

But Dayus had a bad feeling.

Then he thought about the reason for Sam kidnapping him...

He felt like he is connecting some dots.

"Who created this Hub?"

"Someone named Joker. He wears a mask and he only appears as a projection. No one has met him in person. Maybe the current managers did, but that's about it."

"Joker?"

"What does he look like?"

Dayus asked.

"You will find out when you go to Hub and register. Hub is the most happening thing in the Realm, so the arcade scores hold a lot of prestige.

Since you are a player, then I am sure you will do great. The only problem is, we have way too less time and way too much to do. You need to work on all these immediately. You have until tomorrow afternoon to finish these tasks. After that, the case of Flaming skulls will be yours."

"Alright."

Dayus and Dean discussed a few more details.

At the same time, in the Gambler Academy's Student union room.

Crow is looking at the vice captain of the city guard.

"Crow, this is not a small matter. The whole city is in chaos. People are dying left and right, some of them are in an even worse state, they are being crippled and a lot of them are from big families.

Sam must take responsibility for what he has done."

"What has he done, exactly? Do you have any proof?"

Crow asked in a calm tone.

"You know better than I, what kind of person he is. Just for a couple of bowls of soup, he caused a lot of commotion. There is no way, after doing something as bad as using a pocket dimension to trap him, he will stay put.

And only he is the one arrogant enough to leave his name behind on the crime scene."

"That is what you believe. Belief only helps when you are praying to god, not investigating the cases like this."

"Crow, you better make him surrender, or else the consequences would be severe. The city guard might usually turn a blind eye to things like fighting between academies, but that doesn't mean, we are incompetent.

Don't take our leeway for granted."

Crow just stood and spoke.

"The meeting is over. Get out."
