Omega Summoner

Chapter 684: Right of Guardianship

”Are you telling me that we changed a whole mountain?” Peridot asked and then sent a whisper to Adrian.

”Is that even possible? We made the dungeon more dangerous than it already was and it still has the same restrictions. That dungeon is basically a death sentence by now.” Peridot whispered to Adrian.

”Yes, whatever that little demon brat did made changes with the whole of Mt. Thunder that is has become twice as dangerous. We do not know if it is only the terrain and the monsters that changed but we will look into it as it could also affect the rare minerals present inside that mountain.” Nuwa stated as she knew that change like this is not small in scale.

”Did you know that the mountain will change when you used the black stone? Then again, demons have a bad habit of leaving their troubles behind in order for others to clean up. That old man Pann is another example of that bad behavior.

It seems that you are related to him. Are you like…his grandchild or something?” Nuwa stated as she presented a lot of questions to Adrian.

”I suddenly got the chills when you said that. Even I find that old man difficult as he is freer spirited than the elder that likes to blow off work for his research.” Adrian muttered as he imagined himself being Pannʼs grandchild.

”So…did you know that would happen?” Peridot asked this time using her mouth.

”I do not know because the black stone is not a rock that is of this world. It is probably from another dimension that is just carried here. If it was a stone from a dark god, then we would have destroyed it. The only thing we know is that it is a great catalyst for mana.

One of the elders even told me that it actually might have been an ingredient in making the Philosopherʼs stone.” Adrian stated but Nuwaʼs expression became stiff and serious.

”Did Koronn say that to you in that exact same manner?” Nuwa asked with a stiff and serious face that told Adrian to answer just by looking at her.

”Not those same exact words but it went like…uhum…This stone might be the key to unlock the mystery of the Philosopherʼs stone since it has one of its qualities.” Adrian stated with a perfect imitation Koronnʼs voice and speaking habits.

”If that is the case then the House of Creation would like to be the one to monitor that black rock in Mt. Thunder. This is the eastern continent, and it is our duty to monitor such a variable thing as the guardians of the eastern continent.” Nuwa stated as she invoked their right of guardianship for the item since it is located in their territory.

Adrian already knew that this situation could occur because Koronn already told him possible scenarios if he planted the black stone shard in different continents. The eastern continent is currently in the guardianship of the Ryujin affiliated with the House of Creation.

The House of Creation holds the rights of protecting whatever is in the eastern continent. This is the reason why they cannot join in on the power struggle of the eastern continent. They are also the reason why there is no one emperor that united the eastern continent as wars has been banned by the Ryujin as it destroys too much than what it can create after.

”If that is the case then I, Equinox as the Champion of the Twin Gods and representative of the Daemos tasked with keeping this world safe, shall agree with you demands as long as the representative that we will also send is welcomed with basic manner of respect.” Adrian stated as his avatar moved on its own like it is already a predetermined script.

”I, Nuwa as the Great Mistress of the House of Creation, promise to uphold this end of the bargain.” Nuwa stated as she also made the oath.

Two different lights came out of the two individuals. A dark purple light covered with a green ring floated out of Adrian while a white bead with a sleeping dragon floated out of Nuwa. The two lights have been fused together a system notification appeared.

[The Oath of Fellowship has been stated.]

[Anyone that dares break the oath shall be punished by the Goddess of Justice herself.]

[Do your best to keep your oaths until you become dust.]

”The oath has been made and that means that the matter regarding the black stone is now under our control. A representative from your team will be welcomed by the House of Creation with open arms in return.

I believe that one of your purposes here is to also get information about the effects of the black stone. We promise that the details that we gather even if your representative is not yet hear will be honest and true.” Nuwa stated as she radiated the elegance and dignity of the Great Mistress of the House of Creation.

”You are correct as that sneaky old man wanted me to plant the black stone in Mt. Thunder when I mentioned that I will take a trip here. It just so happens that fate brought it perfectly for me.” Adrian stated but he believed that this scenario must have been manipulated by the script of the devs that controls the game.

”That means that you have used me. I am appalled.” Peridot stated but she is not actually serious or offended in any way. She said it in a sarcastic tone as she already received much from Adrian during their trip.

”I sacrificed an arm for you but do not tell the representative that when he or she comes here. Tell them that I sacrificed my arm in order to install the black stone.” Adrian stated as his swindling personality is now activated.

”What do you get for that simple mission though?” Peridot asked as he knows that NPCs usually pay in advance when it comes to missions like this.

”About a hundred scrolls that can execute time and space magic. I already have yours here. This is ten scrolls that each of you guys will have. Five of them are Teleportation scrolls while the other five is called Rewinding scrolls since those can refresh cooldowns instantly but you can only use one per day.” Adrian stated as he gave the scrolls to Peridot.

”I already got so much though but thanks anyways.” Peridot stated as she does not know how to refuse a gift given by a genuine friend.

”Aiyah! You did not even try to refuse once. How can you become refined if you do not refuse only once? I already taught you that you must refuse at first and then accept it after a few tries. That is the elegance of mature women must nourish.” Nuwa stated as she is also interested in those scrolls, but her student is the one that received them.

”What elegance of mature women? It is more like you are teaching her on how to be a con artist or a gold digger.” Adrian thought as he now really believed that there is no normal personality type for strong NPCs.

”I will take note of that, Master. He is different though as he will immediately hide those if I even try to refuse once. I already have a good grasp on her personality which is why I immediately accepted. I already fallen for that trick once which is why I will never fall for it again.” Peridot stated.

”Is this about the food that I offered you, but you said that you were not hungry which is why I ate it? I mean you just needed to be straightforward about it. You did not need to add mental gymnastics for a simple question of yes or no. Seriously, what is it with women and mind games.” Adrian stated.

”I see. He must still be very pure that he thinks like that. It is always the ones that are promising that have the least experience when it comes to that aspect of life.” Nuwa stated and Peridot wholeheartedly agreed with fierce nodding.

”Even she is not that well versed in that part of her life. She has been a tigres all of her life which made the boys feel scared of her. She is actually quite lucky that she managed to bag a man despite her ʼpleasingʼ personality.” Adrian replied as he also teased Peridot back for teasing him.

”Ohoho! So, my ʼdaughterʼ already bagged a man before her master. Yes…you must do that or else you will grow up like me who is sad and alone. You must be more active than me as I was very shy when I was your age.” Nuwa stated but Adrian suddenly had question marks in his head because he is told a different story.

”That Dragon Lady? She is so fierce that no man dared to even come near her despite her beauty.” Pann told Adrian when they were on their way back from their first encounter in the eastern continent.
