Chapter 100 The Meeting

Chapter 100 The Meeting

It is known to many but after all the players have died an Era will disappear without any kind of trace, it's safe to say that all kinds of disappointment are safely discarded, killed where they stand even though they live in the time where all the players have perished. Every Era dies and it starts a new one, now comes the Era of Labyrinths dungeons that have complex paths, traps, and terrifying monsters. Instead of an epidemic or a curse that has befallen their bodies, the thing that killed them in this Era is their worldly desires, Greed, Lust, and Hunger if they want to quench this thirst they'll have to bet their lives and explore the Labyrinth. The Era of Alchemy had long passed away whilst it was replaced by the Era of the Labyrinth raiders

[Remind me why we're here in the first place?]

Morris was inside a room with Persevis along with the executives and high-ranking members along with their newest member They were gathered by their Leader after they safely arrived at the second Trial without any crisis occurring. Apart from the ones he knew from his encounter with Hyunsu and Persevis, he also had some close ties to one of their new member which he not so long ago tried to impale a Dagger within his throat Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"It's been a long time since we have an important meeting with our Core members if you have any questions feel free to raise your~ what is it, Morris?" Persevis points his attention to his location

"Why am I here again? You said Core members im just a player at the senior rankings if I remember correctly," Morris pointed out his arrival which might've been a mistake

"Well, you wouldn't have known since you were comatose, along with the arrival of our new ally member that you've mistaken for your former enemy. Magical Beast expert Seigfried Dross can you enlighten your superior about his importance and achievements in this Cult," Siegfried stands up from his seat after he was ordered by Persevis to relay Morris's achievements written on a piece of paper that was given to him by Persevis

"Former senior ranking member Christoper Morris, placed in the elite group that's known for their great skill, after requesting for a batch of fresh recruits he given the Cult leader a hidden role. That leads to our great leader providing the member's access to the Shadow institution where they're given not only training but sustenance, while we do lose a bunch of our brothers and sisters. The payoff in the hidden role was enough to expand our influence and further increase our numbers, apart from that his allies spared a character named Siegfried Dross that later became a member of the Cult," Siegfried addresses all of his achievements and contributions

'Oh right the Ownership effect, because the members belonged to the Cult they were labeled as his possession, the Shadow Institution not only provides food but training as well. The Assasin group has a large Base on the underground that can house more than 10,000 people, I found out about the Bases layout when I made my way to Genis's training room where he beats the shit out of me. Free lodging and food must have helped them save some of their expenses, I can't believe these guys have 3000 people that are three times compared with the Major Guild's total number of members. In the story, he's always happy to have a lot of tools to control yet the numbers differ, he's supposed to have 1500 the numbers seem to have increased composing of readers and players,'

"In addition to what Hyunsu has reported, we're going to find whoever that thief is~" All of them were surprised by what Morris was wielding after he took off the seal. Filled the whole room with an ominous Aura, and those who weren't resistant started to feel like their stomach was churning from the inside out. Hunger filled their body and the ones that were able to resist was slowly being influenced by the Sin, they too would fall like their subordinate which made him seal its power within the paper

Apart from Morris that gained resistance after he experimented with the core after he acquired it, was unaffected when not even Persevis could resist the Sin's influence

"Ugh, w-where did you get that? Not even the core we found could match the power and influence it has," Overwhelm by the core Persevis along with the rest fell from their seat as he makes his way up after he wasn't influenced by the power of the core

"Remember the strange occurrence of The World Of Trials? When it was just a normal day in the First Trial and suddenly in the 3rd stage it turned into hell and raises its rank,"

"What about the difficulty increase?"

"A player that will remain nameless was used by the Deity who was the main antagonist at that Trial. It's safe to assume that I killed that guy before he could damage the Trial even further, and I found this core at his corpse," He mixed a few lies within the truth that he had spoken of yet they didn't care about the player mentioned in the story. Their eyes were focused on the core that he wrapped in the seal that he acquired from Theodore

"Seeing as how your willing to show that in this meeting are you going to give that?" Persevis focused his gaze on Morris that remained quiet before he made his decision

"Of course not, I'm already a Core member what do you even have to offer that's comparable to this I don't even need your permission to request a few players. I only wanted to show you this if it have some use that I have no idea," Persevis's stare intensified that turned into a gale that was filled with his anger that was aimed toward his body

'I already know why you want this core. Even if I killed you in my book since you were too much of a hassle for Hugo's team. By the time you've gained power, you would place your men in every entrance to the Trials that were placed within your territory. But that time hasn't come you haven't turned into a Villain, since your sister is still alive, you would do anything for the two of you to be reunited. But you're an unlucky one by the time you've found the last material it got swept away from your hands, what are you going to do now, Persevis Nah let's get more familiar what is your choice, Felix?'
