Omega Summoner

Chapter 2294: Unable to Upgrade

”Thank you for the warning.” Adrian replied with a calm composure which the Wilde Eden Guardian Mistrotl acknowledged that the being before him is almost the same in standing as it.

”Please take out the Creation Relic of the Selvaggians.” Mistrotl stated.

”Can I at least ask first? I do not want you to suddenly snatch it away from me.” Adrian replied.

”Do not worry, young mediator. I will just impart some of my essence on it as I have seen your memories on how you are going to use it. I have seen the memories that I needed when you made contact with the fog that I have made.

I have seen this Island Sentinel that appeared in one of your new islands. I wish to have a spark of me near the Creation Relic of the Selvaggians as a repayment of my debt. Although it will not truly be me, the fact that a part of me is still protecting them fills me with relief.” Mistrotl stated.

”If you wish to do so then I should honor your resolve.” Adrian stated as he took out the chest from his inventory and presented it to Mistrotl.

Mistrotl then proceeded to emit a mist from his body which is not as thick as the usual fog that he is releasing. The mist then entered the Wilde Heart, and the power of the Wilde Eden Guardian surrounded it as protection. As Mistrotl promised, it only gave part of its power to the Creation Relic and let Adrian return it back to his inventory.

[The Creation Relic of the Selvaggians, Wilde Heart, has been imbued by a protector.]

”I guess you learn something new every day.” Adrian stated as he always thought that things were set in stone in Pandemonium.

”Thank you once again for your assistance, young mediator. I hope that you help this realm again should it fall into danger once again.” Mistrotl stated.

”Why did you not interfere with the primordial beast that attacked though?” Adrian asked as he remembered that the Eden Guardian would have acted if the realm itself is in danger.

”Did you not think that I did not help all of you? I used all of my power in making sure that the primordial beast scoundrel will not be able to freely absorb the primordial energy of this realm. I restricted it to force it into eating the land itself as it had no other choice to sustain itself.

I could not actively move as well because that damned god was peeking in this realm as it waited for me to show myself. I had to choose my battles given that I will not be able to take on a god and a primordial beast on my own.” Mistrotl stated.

Adrian could agree with the sentiment of the Wilde Eden Guardian. If the world is threatened by two beings of power that will team up to take you down, the best course of action is to make sure to hinder one while the forcing the orchestrator to be unable to move. In fact, the distorted god would not have moved if Adrian and the Daemos did not force its hand.

”A difficult decision as some areas were destroyed but it was necessary for the realm.” Adrian stated.

”I know that you would understand, young mediator. I could see that you have also underwent heavy decisions like me. If that is all then I wish you well on our journey.” Mistrotl stated as it suddenly released more fog that swallowed Adrianʼs body as well.

Adrian suddenly found himself in the middle of the Marsh. He was not in the temple located at the deep parts but is located in the area where the frog beastkin live. Elder Ribbit even got scared as Adrian suddenly popped out while he was talking to some villagers.

”Mediator Equinox! I thank the gods that you are fine. If you were to be hurt, then my head would have been served on a platter.” Elder Ribbit stated.

”It is nice to see you too, Elder Ribbit. I must take my leave now but please tell King Leonidas that I appreciate the help that he has given me. I will never forget this favor as this trip has truly awakened something in me.” Adrian stated as he suddenly vanished using teleportation.

”Wait! I was about to ask you about the bill that… and he is gone. How will I explain this amount to his majesty? I need a vacation and a soak in the famous mud baths.” Elder Ribbit stated as he saw five zeroes in the bill that made him gulp.

Adrian appeared in Avalon and is about to use the Creation Relic to upgrade the territory when the voice of the Yewdrassil entered his mind. He always teleports to the location of the Tree of Life and Death as if it was his save point in Avalon. This area is also the safest and heavily guarded and only Adrian is allowed to teleport directly in this area. Even the three Daemos Elders are not permitted to do so.

”Is something wrong, Yewdrassil?” Adrian asked.

”I am advising you to not do what you are going to do as it will be ineffective.” The Tree of Life and Death stated.

”You mean trying to upgrade my territory? Why are you trying to stop me when it was you that said that I need to expand it more.” Adrian asked.

”The territory needs to breath, Mediator Equinox. The energy from the latest island has yet to fully stabilize and you are going to add another which will detriment it. Please wait another month to se that relic as using it now will be useless.” The Tree of Life and Death stated which Adrian actually tested out.

Adrian placed the Creation Relic onto the upgrade material page on the territory panel, but the upgrade territory button did not appear. It seems that the Tree of Life and Death is telling the truth that further enhancements are impossible as of now. He did not expect that such a thing is possible as a lot of guilds have poured lots of resources to increase their territory, but it seems his territory is more special.

”Can you explain this phenomenon to me on why I cannot do it?” Adrian asked the Tree of Life and Death as he placed all needed materials but no button to upgrade was appearing.

”Your territory is different from other territories that are in this world. It is also the reason why I can take root in your territory when I am supposed to be unable to take root in any world. There is a reason why the entities of the Tree of Life and the Tree of Death are separate. My power itself cannot be handled by the world in its incomplete state, but your territory is special.” The Tree of Life and Death stated.

”Are you telling me that my territory is independent from the world itself?” Adrian asked a question that he thought was crazy, but it seems that he was sane all along.

”You are correct in that regard, Mediator Equinox. Your territory is like a separate realm if you wish to have terms used by you demons. A territory that has its own land deity that does not conform to the standard of the world itself. Any damage to the main world will not damage your territory but that also works the other way around.

The world itself will not be able to aid your territory should it be attacked. The best it could do is give you warnings and premonitions but sending direct aid such as using primordial beasts are impossible. Still, this land is under my control as well which is why you should not be scared.” The Tree of Life and Death stated which made Adrian speechless but also focused on creating more defensive measures for his territory.

”Oh, my gods and goddesses, my territory is a liability.” Adrian stated as he suddenly used terms that his father uses when talking about lands that can be used as income.

”What did you mean by that, Mediator Equinox?” The Tree of Life and Death asked.

”Nothing as the spirit of my father and sister just came over me for a brief moment. Care to explain on other things that I should know about?” Adrian asked as the Tree of Life and Death started to go into detail about the real information of his territory.

”That was incredibly insightful. Thank you.” Adrian stated.

”Another word of advice, Mediator Equinox. It is regarding that Creation Relic that you have acquired.” The Tree of Life and Death stated.

”Yes?” Adrian replied.

”You must procure something that could tame or suppress the wildness of the energy in that. It could potentially create incidents of monster stampedes if it is left unchecked once it is integrated into your territory.” The Tree of Life and Death stated.
