Omega Summoner

Chapter 568: The Unique Faceless One I

The rising star called Lime is a well-known player by the ordinary players and casual players. She is someone that would partake in small quests and would often help the NPCs more rather than hunt monsters.

The reason she is well-known is the fact that she always helps those in need if they encounter her. She also has a personality that is angel like in quality. The only thing that they do not know about her is her real life, but they do not care.

She is the embodiment of goodness in the world as the normal players have dubbed. She does not get scouted by the top guilds even though she is famous because she is not the type to battle. There is a small group of players like her that likes to have leisure time inside the game.

It is not that she does not know how to fight but she is already tired of fighting as she is a retired war veteran from a certain country. She noticed the struggles and pain that war can bring as she also lost her right leg due to it which is why she was honorably discharged.

She took her free time in enjoying the leisure activities in the world and that included gaming because her other buddies told her that she may be able to fell like walking. She was also free to do whatever she wants inside the game and that is why she did.

She gained titles due to helping other people whether it was a player or an NPC. She did not distinguish the two as real and code, but she accepted Pandemonium as a different reality like those that want to escape the harshness of the real world.

She unlocked a hidden class because of her actions, and it is the job class called True Saint. A job that did not rely on a god or goddessesʼ holy power but the strength of the personʼs conviction. She is also not limited in using weapons as a True Saint will fight for the people if they must.

She did not pick up a weapon though as she disliked battling because she is not incentivized to fight. Her unwillingness to change started to change though when she met a certain boy from a humble family. When she managed to achieve perfect affinity with the little boy.

The little boy is like the other kids, but he is mature for his age. She heard the reason for that is the little boy got kidnapped by slavers and got away because a monster attacked the slave caravan. The boy returned with a slightly gloomy attitude, but overtime regained his gleefulness.

The only thing different is that the little boy acted more mature than before as if his mind forced his immaturity out because of the incident. The parents of the little boy did not care about this and still showered the little boy with love as well as his siblings.

Lime also became fond of the little boy as he would often be the leader figure in the group of children that made sure they were out of harm. She even remembered an incident that the little boy got into when one of his playmates got lost in the jungle. He bravely went to find his playmate and defended the playmate from wild beasts.

In the end, the parents of the children asked Lime to help as they know that she is one of the ʼCursed Childrenʼ that do not die even if they are killed. She agreed immediately and retrieved the badly injured little boy and the playmate that is unharmed. Thankfully, the monster that cornered them are not powerful which made them hold out long from running.

Lime healed the little boy as the power of a True Saint is a power that can affect even the NPCs in Pandemonium unlike others. She could even revive the dead as long as only a small amount of time has passed. It is a skill that she does not use in fear of being hounded by greedy players since she just wants some peace and quiet playing the game.

The little boy thanked him for saving and healing him and they grew closer. She noticed that the little boy that is named Imiter is curious about everything. He also seemed much more intelligent that he lets on, but she did not pay attention to it. It is only when she is having a stroll with the village kids when she noticed that Imiter became pale.

”The monster of infinite faces has returned.” Imiter muttered as Lime received a system notification stating that a dark god has descended.

Imiter then told everyone to return home as danger is coming towards them. They must take shelter as faceless monsters will appear. The other kids did not believe him while others became scared. This is the first time that Imiter acted out which is why Lime became worried.

Since the fun atmosphere has been ruined, she decided to tell the children to go back as the system notification also bothered her. She knew that numerous fights often happen whenever the system gives them notification. She cannot let the children go to harm after all.

Suddenly, something started rustling in the woods as a humanoid figure came out. Lime immediately told the children to run back to the village as they are not faraway and call for help. She did not notice it, but the humanoid figure is fast and managed to injure Lime before she could evade properly.

She let her guard down because she is too worried for the children. When she looked at the humanoid figure, she noticed that it had no face. She knew it was a monster and she needs to kill it or else the children might be in danger. The next thing she knew is that the head of that faceless creature suddenly spew blood as she saw the arms of the boy called Imiter become akin to scythes.
