Omega Summoner

Mina was still at the starting village and still at level one due to not yet accepting the village chief quest. The reason that other people do not venture to all the areas of the starting village is because there was not much there during beta. Another reason is that those who have gotten something good never talk about it.

In the end, the starting village was dubbed the tutorial village with no interesting content on it. Due to others already reaping the early benefits, there was not much left on the starting village. The event items present there are basically the ones you need time to get. Like Adrian, who spent numerous hours to just tame Sirius.

Although it was not a bad thing as the harder to get then the greater the reward. Since one of the five Asmodian races has been chosen, the script for each race has been changed. The change was subtle so that even newbies who read the forums will not know of the difference.

Mina was wondering on the church of the starting village. If you chose a priest job class character, you would normally go to this church. It would only be after you leave the starting village could you choose what would your church affiliation be. This church was famous for one thing though.

The church was famous because one of the nuns is actually a fifteen year old. The name of the nun is Sister Leticia. She wears a habit so her hair color cannot be seen. Since it was also baggy, her body shape could not be seen. The one thing noticeable would be her crimson eyes. She was also famous for being the sassy nun.

Anyways, Mina is currently inside the church that looks like a rural church in the province. It was made of stone with wooden chairs that look old. The reason she is here because she was observing the paintings and the church's library. Other players are also there but due to other reasons.

She wanted a full grasp of the lore of the game but even in the starting village only basic lore was given. Still that did not discourage her from observing the church. She was then noticed by Sister Leticia due to her being a warrior and not someone who wanted to become a priest.

"This is not an art gallery Miss Warrior." Sister Leticia told Mina while the former was only a few feet away.

"I am sorry. I was just marveling at the paintings and reading some of the copies of the holy books." Mina replied.

"I see. It is quite rare for a warrior to pop here in the church and not ogle at me. If that is what you are aiming for then follow me. Sister Lira! Please handle the church affairs for me for a few minutes." Sister Leticia said.

Mina then followed Sister Leticia to a door that leads down the church. The room they were in was quite big but it was filled with paintings and books that are not allowed to be viewed. They are not allowed to be viewed because the paintings depicted the twin gods along with asmodians and five peculiar races. There were also paintings that depicted the horrors the dark gods inflicted.

"What do you think about the depictions in these paintings?" Sister Leticia asked.

"They are a bit horrifying and bloody." Mina honestly replied.

"This part of the church is restricted due to the outside world banning this knowledge. Anyone who learns of this they brand a heretic. So where would be the best hiding spot be?" Sister Leticia stated.

"The place of those who bans them of course." Mina replied.

A smile was then seen on Sister Leticia's face but the most noticeable part would be the fangs revealed when she smiled.

"I like you Warrior Mina. You are curious yet bold. Adventurous and determined. I have been observing you as you have familiarized yourself with the townsfolk ever since you arrived here." Sister Leticia said.

"Thank you for the praise?" Mina awkwardly replied.

"I will cut to chase then. Be mine!" Sister Leticia ordered as her red eyes glowed in a crimson light while her blood red hair was revealed.

"Uhm…I got to go now then." Mina said as she did not know what to do. She had never played a VR game before. She was only familiar with haloswatch games or desktop games.

Mina was about to dash towards the stairs but she was rooted in place by a red congealed liquid.

"Your human body is a waste of your potential. Do not worry. It will not hurt. Much. I think." Sister Leticia said as she controlled the red liquid to bring Mina to her.

Mina was now kneeling in front of Sister Leticia. Sister Leticia brushed Mina's hair aside and bared her fangs. She did mutter a few words though before biting her neck.

"It is such a humiliation that Lucretia found her champion first. Thankfully, he was not reborn as an Erebian or else I would not have found my perfect champion." Sister Leticia said as she finally bit Mina's neck to which the latter just passed out.

A system notification then appeared on every player's screen.

[The game will now go for a system maintenance. The game will be accessible after 24 hours. All dungeon dives will get a quick save ticket. All crafting progress will be saved. It is recommended for all players to log out in five minutes. We are sorry for the inconvenience.]

Mina was immediately logged out of the game. She then shouted, "What just happened?!"

She then saw Adrian in his wheelchair passing by as he also logged out of the game. She then helped him as he was on his way to practice walking with the exoskeleton. Since Adrian's parents already saw Mina escorting Adrian, they just prepared some snacks for both of them.

"So what did you do inside the game?" Mina asked to start a conversation as she was not accustomed to silence. She also knew that Adrian would not really talk unless asked so she opted to do it first.

"I just helped one of my soulbounds to evolve. Did you know that the quest said sick? So I tried to find sick people to help but the quest meant deathly sick. Do you know how hard it was to find people with deadly diseases?" Adrian complained while holding the training bar and walking.

"Why do you need to find those types of people? Also do you have pictures of your soulbounds. I hear that summoner is a popular class for pet lovers because it is literally a virtual pet caretaker." Mina replied.

"It is one of the requirement to evolve one of my soulbounds. I think I have pictures of them in my haloswatch. Look." Adrian then showed the pictures of his soulbounds in both real form and polymorphed form.

"They are so cute when in chibi forms. They look cool in their real form though." Mina stated.

"How about you? What were you up to in the game?" Adrian asked while he was practice walking.

"Yeah about that. I think I broke my character?" Mina stated which shocked Adrian.

"What! What happened? Tell me everything and I mean everything." Adrian said worried as his big sister already spent a couple of hours in game.

Mina then recounted the story. Adrian was listening intently but an hour flew past with her just talking about the starting village which bored Adrian. Then Adrian's mom brought some refreshments to which Mina still continued her story. She then arrived at the part on what happened at the church which blew Adrian's mind.

"I think your character is not broken." Adrian stated.

"What do you mean by that?" Mina replied with a question.

"I think you just experienced a race change like me. But unlike me, yours was abrupt." Adrian then remembered what his experience was like and said, "Scratch that. Mine was abrupt too. If I see another undead giant wolf then I would pummel it to death."

"Do you mean my character would become different?" Mina asked as she was curious.

"It will. I would not think it as bad since every race in Pandemonium has pros and cons. It is up to you whether to maximize its potential or not. It is not the game that is bad. It is just you not knowing how to play the game well." Adrian advised.

"So what do you speculate will be my new race? I have some speculations but there are numerous types of humanoid creatures that have fangs." Mina said with excitement as she might be playing something new. She wanted to become an adventurer as a second class since those players open new doors instead of using old ones.

"From what you told me it is probably from the Erebian race with the species being Vampire." Adrian answered.

"Oh. Will I get inhuman strength? Become superfast? Shine in broad daylight?" Mina asked non-stop as she could not hold back her excitement.

"Yeah. Not really. It is not like those old movies you watched where the lead male character wanted to expose himself in a festival. It is still a game so skills and stats determine you character. Even I do not know much except that they become more powerful depending on the face of the moon. So do not have very high expectations" Adrian stated to douse Mina's overexcitement.
