Omega Summoner

Chapter 656: Arriving at Mt. Thunder

”Does that mean that Kanlaon has the blood of a western and an eastern dragon?” Peridot asked but Adrian could not answer as it is not stated on Kanlaonʼs status.

”It is actually not that odd, Mistress. Something like that happens as some of the Ryujin are invited to the Festival of the Dragon King.” Saru suddenly stated.

”Really! Can you tell me what this festival is that you speak of?” Peridot asked as she is curious. Since she was a Ryujin, she is very curious about their lifestyle. All she could see in her masterʼs mansion is that they are bored people with nothing to do.

”I do not know the entire details, Mistress. I have not been tasked to guard anyone before as it is always the general that accompanies the delegates. All I know is that there are talks about marriage and such, but it does not happen often.

I heard from the general that this festival is to celebrate the Dragon King which was the first dragon birthed by the Mother of Dragons herself. The general said that it is like a feast but dragon style.” Saru stated.

”I really want to go as it would be nice to see other dragon children. All the Ryujin children in our place all act very respectful and not fun to chat with. They are also too strict on themselves.” Peridot grumbled.

”If I may say something unbecoming, Mistress. If the Great Mistress is not your mother, then you might have ended up like the other children.” Saru stated as he knows that Peridot is not a classy person.

”I can agree with you on that one. Although, she could act the part but that happens rarely when she is in the mood, or you know who is around.” Adrian added which made Peridot slap his left arm.

”Ouch. That hurts you know.” Adrian reacted.

”Then that is good.” Peridot stated as she sulked.

”If I may ask, Master Equinox. How is it that you radiate an aura of someone dignified? Were you born from great parents?” Saru asked as he noticed the different disposition between the two friends.

”I was born by the world itself unlike Peridot that had to undergo the process of rebirth.” Adrian stated as Peridot told them about the process on how she changed races.

Saru became shocked by Adrianʼs revelation as only special beings get born from the world itself. Adrian only answered what was told to him when he chose his race in the Hall of Armageddon. The information that Adrian gave Saru made him even more respectful than before and proud that the one he serves is close with someone powerful.

”Unlike someone, I was not born to a family that needs to practice high class table manners.” Peridot stated using the direct message function for players.

”I cannot say that here in the game world, right? Saru would not understand.” Adrian replied.

The path towards Mt. Thunder is not easy as they got attacked a few minutes after their conversation. Bird type monsters and flying insect monsters that eat flesh all attacked them. Thankfully, Saru is a great guard that did not let any of them reach Adrian or Peridot.

If a monster would have reached them, Adrian would immediately shift the gravity and the flying monsters would go crashing down. Peridot would use her excellent control over the water and air elements to freeze the wings of the flying monsters.

They might not have killed the monsters, but they built up their coordination on the way to Mt. Thunder. After an hour of travelling, a large mountain could be seen in the distance that is surrounded by thunderclouds with lightning always striking.

”Can you tell me what exactly Mt. Thunder is?” Adrian asked as he does not know anything about the eastern continent.

”It is a neutral zone that is unpredictable like its name as you cannot predict when thunder will occur or the lightning accompanying it will strike. Even other powerful people do not necessarily claim this area.

Which is why a treaty was formed to make it a training ground for younger generations. There is also a non-aggression pact that forbids any younger generation to attack one another. It is actually surrounded by a great array to prevent anyone that is level 201 and above to enter.” Peridot stated.

”An Array Master should be a better version of the Charm Master, correct?” Adrian asked as he has seen what charms could do.

”You are correct. Although, one is vastly different than the other despite having the same skills. A Charm Master could only use paper to create charms while an Array Master is different. The world itself is their canvass which is why they are respected.” Peridot replied.

”How many Array Masters are in the eastern continent?” Adrian asked as they might provide him some insight about being a scribe.

”There are currently none as they all vanished suddenly one day during the Great Calamity. No one knows where they could have gone. Even the Ryujins searched for them, but they vanished without a trace. All the arrays in the eastern continent have been set up by the past Array Masters.” Saru stated as he was the one that knows of the history.

”It seems that many pinnacle existences vanished at one point, but nobody know how or why it happened.” Adrian muttered as even the Noblesse vanished at some point. They did not sacrifice themselves to the realm barrier like the Asmodians.

As the trio were getting near Mt. Thunder, something came flying at them, but it was not a beast. A gigantic boomerang came flying towards them. The giant boomerang did not hit because Saru deflected it using his pole.

”Who dares attack the Mistress of the House of Creation?!” Saru stated in a thundering voice that did not have a hint of respect but full of anger.

”Turn back now while we are giving you face. The Azure Dragon Clan is claiming this area for one week.” A voice from the ground stated.
