Omega Summoner

Chapter 2231: Retest I

Adrian finally returned back to Avalon after his exciting outing to the Wilde. He looked incredibly refreshed by what he did as he helped Kabrakan with his dilemma. He did not mind the fact that he terrorized an entire race to show them a point as he already forgot all of that when he got back.

He thought what he needed to do next, but nothing is popping inside of his head. He thought that he should continue with the quests he has paused but there was no indication of the next pieces. He did not want to start an entire questline again as Kabrakan might find him in the next couple of days.

He believed that Kabrakan would be able to handle the rest, and he just needed to wait for the affirmation. Seeing that he is a bit free, he let his soulbounds roam about in the territory for their leisure time. He also checked on the things that needed his confirmation regarding some stalls in the territory. He did what a territory lord needs to do and made sure that the overall satisfaction of the people is high.

”If satisfaction is high then they would not grumble as much when it comes to things like raising tax by 0.1%!” Adrian thought as he increased the tax by that much and thinking that he was a bit naughty because of it.

”I guess it is time for the retest to check if my skills have improved. I just hope that Elder Ascalor is available to fight though” Adrian muttered as he was a bit more confident now because of his new passive skill.

Adrian went to look for Elder Ascalor and he found him doing some administrative duties which actually shocked him. He always thought that this elder would do anything to avoid responsibilities and would always play hooky when he has the time. He still has the memory orb for special cases, so he is not afraid of the old man right now.

”What do you want? Should the territory lord not survey his territories?” Elder Ascalor asked as he could clearly see Adrian whisking about near him.

”I already did all of them and now I am free. I wanted to ask you if you are free, but it seems that you are busy. Maybe I should come back some other time.” Adrian stated.

”If you are not here for anything then go away. I need to concentrate as I have a lot of work piled up right now.” Elder Ascalor stated.

”I was about to ask for a retest on the trial, but it is a bad time. See you later then.” Adrian stated as he was about to walk out but Elder Ascalor suddenly created an invisible barrier using space magic.

”Seeing that you need me to help you with that test, I can drop these documents for now to help you.” Elder Ascalor stated as he was actually wanting to find a way to avoid his responsibilities for the day because he was bored.

”You are busy. I can just come back another time.” Adrian replied as he could feel that he might be blamed for enabling Elder Ascalorʼs lazy behavior.

”Ara? Are you not going to do your duties just like you promised?” Elder Danayaʼs voice stated as she slowly entered the room with some refreshments.

”I am doing my duties, but the kid needs someone to test him with regards to his current goal. Is that not right, brat?” Elder Ascalor stated as he looked at Adrian for support, but the latter smiled deviously.

”It is fine, ol… Elder Ascalor. I can just ask the other elders if they are free since you are clearly busy. I do not want to trouble you when you are pretending to be incredibly busy... I mean busy. I need to go now. It is nice to see you in good health, Elder Danaya.” Adrian stated as he bid farewell to the two.

Elder Danaya patted Adrianʼs head as she always finds him adorable and treats him like her own child. Elder Ascalor, on the other hand, is looking at him like he was a target of the pen he is holding. Elder Ascalor could not move though as Elder Danaya was clearly paying attention to him despite being charmed by Adrian.

Adrian moved to the next elder that does not seem busy and that is Elder Koronn. He is undoubtedly the elder that has the freest time as he often focuses on research. The other two elders do not mind that he is like that because he always shares what he learns to all of them. He also researches on things that could improve like the secrets of temporal magic and how to manipulate it easily.

”Elder Koronn? Are you there?” Adrian asked but he was already opening the door to the research lab of Elder Koronn.

”Oh! You are here, Equinox. I mean… Lord Equinox.” One of the Daemos assistants of Elder Koronn stated.

Elder Koronn usually preferred to work alone but he took in assistants when they migrated to Avalon. It is also not just Daemos that work with him as there are other races that do research as well. Elder Koronn is the head of the research institute as Adrian told him, but he refuses to accept the title as he said it is burdensome. Still, Elder Koronn has become less cold and liked kindred spirits that like to research like him.

”It is fine. You can call me my name if you want. Anyways, where is Elder Koronn?” Adrian asked.

”He is currently in his Time Chamber experimenting on some stuff that is related to a time barrier. I can guide you there if you want.” The assistant stated.

”No need as I can get there myself. You can return to your work as I think I am taking much of your precious time. Thank you for telling me.” Adrian stated as he unfurled his wings and flew towards a door that leads to the Time Chamber.
