Omega Summoner

Adrian returned to the Paradox Planes and immediately went to Ascalor's abode. He realized this but it seems that Ascalor is something like the elder that manages everything while the other two have different responsibilities. Bronx is responsible for training the Daemos while Koronn is responsible for intelligence or researches.

Adrian went to Ascalor and found him once again giving orders to some other people. He waited for the elder to finish what he is doing before he bothers the latter. When Ascalor is no longer talking to someone, Adrian would then ask his question as for him the task is not that important in his opinion.

It is not that Adrian is cold hearted but he is logical. You have to consider what the economic standing of your community is before accepting others. Kindness might be great and all but kindness will not feed everyone especially if the others are in a difficult situations themselves.

"Is there something new that you want to ask brat?" Ascalor asked.

"Do you know about half demons, old man?" Adrian rebutted.

Ascalor then squinted his eyes and looked at Adrian when he heard what came out of the boy's mouth. Adrian saw Ascalor's reaction and is sure that the elder knows something. Adrian waited for the elder to talk as the old man looked like he wanted say something.

"Did you encounter one of them?" Ascalor asked.

"Yeah. I encountered one and it asked me to help them relocate or something. The one thing I am not sure about is the one I encountered became the royal wizard of the empire." Adrian stated.

"Do you know why we became a secluded race?" Ascalor suddenly asked which made Adrian ponder.

"I thought we are in seclusion because the whole world is after our kind. You did tell me one time that our cores can be harvested in order to power up teleportation devices." Adrian replied with what he is currently told.

"Even if the whole world knows of our kind, we can easily scare them off because of our unique nature of our race. The asmodian races chose to live in seclusion not because we are scared but because of what happened when we mingled with others after the war with the dark gods." Ascalor stated and Adrian listened attentively as more lore is being told to him.

Ascalor stated that before there was a council made by the five descendant asmodian races. At that time, any race became free to mingle with each other but that also came in with complications. Some races liked to live with others while others have different habits.

The most apparent problem came when hybrids appear. They were of two different worlds and yet they belonged to none. They were not trouble makers but they cannot maximize the strength of one race because they are basically the average of both races that they belong to.

The division became apparent because none chose to understand each other despite interacting with each other. This is not avoidable as every person is unique despite belonging to a certain group. In the long run, fights started to ensue and the council could barely keep everything together.

In the end the council decided to disband but the main problem is where the hybrids will stay. The hybrids decided to form groups dependent on their lineages. The half humans decided to stay together and others did the same. Then the hunting began hundreds of years later when the first few generations of hybrids died.

The five asmodian races who were living in peace started becoming hunted by their descendants due to someone insinuating them. This forced the others to flee because for the hybrids outnumbered the five asmodian races. The Daemos sent the Selvaggians and the Faekin to other worlds that are suitable for them.

The Jotunn stayed in areas with extreme temperatures that are of their mental affinity. The Erebians managed to blend in with the society of humans because they do not look different from them. The Daemos decided to stay in a paradox point in order to stay elusive which made them the most elusive of all the asmodian races.

The Daemos can never forget what happened because the one behind the hunt for the asmodian races is actually a human daemos hybrid. This hybrid is later known as the first hero of the human race Kaiser. He utilized both elemental and arcane magic thanks to his daemos genetics.

The five asmodian races did not know why there came sudden hostility as each group agreed with a non-aggression treaty. Most of all, why were the five asmodian races the only groups targeted. Even Adrian became suspicious and started to think that it is indeed the faceless ones responsible or maybe even worse.

"So now you know why I will not agree to help those half demons despite having our blood. It is not because we, The Daemos, are the good ones but we must prioritize the safety our kind first. If we all perish then no one will watch over the universe." Ascalor stated with a strict tone.

"What if we start the council once more?" Adrian asked and then Ascalor froze because of the suggestion.

"It seems that whoever is behind the divide is moving once again and this time they are targeting the half demons. What if we are the ones to start a haven for the five races in the main world once again?" Adrian suggested.

"Just because we failed the first time does not mean that we will fail a second time. This time though what if we make five separate communities and one large integrated community in the middle. Koronn always told me that "Time heals all wounds". Plus, we have a larger threat we need to deal with now." Adrian stated as he noticed that the movements of the dark gods suddenly increased.

"I will run your suggestion by the elders. You do have a voice as you are the Champion of the Twin Gods but the safety of the Daemos must come first." Ascalor stated as he thought deeply of Adrian's suggestion but the latter is still staring at him.

"Is there anything else brat?" Ascalor asked with his playful tone once more.

"Can you send me to Alfheim?" Adrian immediately asked as he only has eighty days remaining on the mission to save the world tree.

"Why do you want to go there?" Ascalor asked while looking at Adrian with squinting eyes.

"I need to save the world tree on the main world. The world tree located in Neo Alfheim. Koronn and I speculated that a dark god might have poisoned the tree." Adrian stated in a serious tone.

"If you are going there then you can bring something for me to a person named Danaya." Ascalor stated as he started to scribble something in a piece of paper and put the letter in a bejeweled box.

"What is this? Is this for your lover or something?" Adrian asked jokingly but Ascalor actually blushed a little which shocked Adrian.

"Give this to her when you go there. She is an Elder Dryad and she might even help you with your problem." Ascalor stated as he gave Adrian the box.

"Wait! I still need to visit Pann. That old man said to visit him when I get peculiar or strange creatures." Adrian stated.

"Seriously! That demigod surely has strange tastes." Ascalor mumbled which Adrian did not hear clearly.

"What did you just say old man?" Adrian asked.

"Nothing just the mumblings of an old man. Come to me when you are ready to go to Alfheim." Ascalor stated as he shooed Adrian away.

"Old man Pann! Are you here?!" Adrian shouted.

"I am not deaf! You do not need to shout brat!" Pann shouted back towards Adrian.

"I am here because I found an interesting creature. It is an undead though." Adrian stated.

"Well, put it out already then. I want to see." Pann stated in an excited tone.

Adrian then took out the Purified Spirit Stone and activated it. The purified spirit stone became light particles and is absorbed into Adrian's body. A system notification then appeared before him.

[Do you wish to name the Life Eater?]

"The name will be Charon." Adrian stated.

[You have named the Life Eater as Charon. Your souls shall be bound together.]

"Greater Summon: Charon" Adrian chanted and a magic circle with a skull insignia appeared.

Adrian also summoned his three other soulbounds so that they can meet their new companion. Charon still had the same look but its aura no longer reeked of the polluted undeath aura. The little Life Eater that is only about two feet in height looked at the others curiously like a child meeting new people.

"Interesting! Very Interesting!" Pann stated as it grabbed Charon and started pinching here and there.

Pann even tried stretching its hooded cloak. He even pulled down Charon's hood to reveal a floating skull with nothing connected to it. The inside of its body is all darkness but the Life Eater did not enjoyed the sensation of being examined so it scurried it way to Adrian as instinct.
