Omega Summoner
Chapter 697 - The Fan IV
As expected of my idol, the territory that he created is indeed special as anyone in the territory is blessed by the God of Death and the Goddess of Life. I only recently learned about the god of death when I found records of the early beginnings of the Church of Life.
I wanted to sneak inside the undead citadel, but that place is heavily guarded by powerful wraiths. Even the best scout is unable to sneak inside. Also, the undead citadel is covered by a thick cloud of energy that is special to the undead. I would die before I even reach the depths of the citadel.
Anyways, it is a good thing that the demons are not barring entry to those that are of the human race. They will be allowed to enter the territory as long as they do not enter the depths of the floating island where that strange tree is located.
I met some of the races that I helped in the territory as they seem to want to relocate due to the aftereffects of the war. The fact that the whole central continent turned to a battlefield is worrying. I also received intel from my sources that some of the powers from other continents had a hand on this battle.
Losing the empire is such a big loss for the central continent but those followers of the dark gods are good in hiding their tracks. I could not even infiltrate their meetings due to how secretive it is. They also exhibit cult like manner and seemed to have connected thought which would make infiltrating a death wish.
As I was busy murmuring on my next courses of action, I saw a familiar group of individuals that are extremely close to my idols. It is none other than his soulbounds that are in their smaller forms while others are in their human forms.
I wanted to avoid them, but the cool looking Sirius noticed that I am using a technique that blended into the shadows. I guess it was a bad choice of skill seeing that the soulbound is a master in manipulating the shadows. He is definitely the true assassin when it comes to using the darkness attribute.
I just felt a chill down my spine, but Sirius did not attack and just stared at me with interest. I was about to excuse myself when I felt a sudden thug at my clothes. The cute little Kanlaon is looking at me with eyes full of wonder and seems to want to play with me.
The other soulbounds also acted like children which is not great for me as I am not good with kids. I decided to play with them since they are the ones close to my idol and their humanoid faces resemble him quite a bot which makes it really interesting.
It is like I am seeing a fresh new version of my idol in different skins as if he is a playable character in an MMO. I enjoyed playing with them, but duty suddenly calls as the followers of the dark gods that suddenly went silent started to move once again.
I excused myself from the playtime as I need to now do my duties as the shadow of the world savior. I needed to go to the western continent to see what the followers of the dark gods are doing in such a location where they call as the Valley of the Kings.
If it is the followers of the dark gods, then it is best to say that they are up to no good. The most difficult to deal with among them is the one that my idol has clashed with before. Eldritch is the extreme bad of the bad among the villains that my idol has faced.
As I was about to leave using Shunpo, my idol suddenly appeared in front of me which gave me a fright. He apologized and even thanked me for playing with the soulbounds that he called as children. To think that I am speaking with my idol! Kukuku…I am about to lose my mind about this.
I wanted to pay attention to what he said to me but I honestly drifted due to me being nervous. I shook his hand as he sincerely thanked me. I am forever grateful to the almighty that I did not faint or poop my pants even though I am not sure that is possible in the game.
He really is different up close than what observing from afar looks like as you could feel the intensity in his aura. He had an amiable and kind face but the pressure that he exuded felt like that of or almost that of a demigod. He can definitely go toe to toe with a demigod and not faint from the release of a demigod's aura.
There is also another thing that I noticed and that is my passive skill 'Intuition' going ballistic like when I encountered Eldritch. In other words, my idol is as dangerous or if not more powerful than Eldritch. I think this might be the reason why there are more players in the followers of the dark god and not many like my idol that fight for the world.
Sad to admit but my time here is limited as I must fulfill my duty as the shadow of my idol. I must go and investigate the area that my informant has told me about. I guess this is what my idol feels whenever he uses his powers to save this world from disaster.
As I was leaving my idol's territory called Avalon, I met up with the race that I found most peculiar and secretive. They are called Shades and they worship the God of Darkness Erebus. They look similar to elves, but they do not have long pointy ears.
Their hair is mostly pale silver in color while their skin tone is that of a pinkish skin tone. They stand out when there is light outside due to their peculiar appearance, but they change when it comes to dark areas or at night. They are said to be the blessed worshippers of the God of Darkness himself as they have the passive ability called Dark Veil.
They basically transform into the incarnation of darkness when almost no light is present. They are the best when it comes to stealth and reconnaissance missions, but the twist is that they are a race more incline to pacifism. They hate conflict and would rather run away from a fight than participate in one. They are peace lovers despite the fact that they are the perfect assassins.
I remember helping one of their elders in recovering their treasure that was stolen by one of the followers of the dark gods. I managed to retrieve it and in return they gave me the chance to become one of them. Since I cannot be a demon and demons do not have assassin classes that require stealth anyways, I decided to jump on the chance on becoming a Shade after careful deliberation.
Luckily, the Shade representative that is present in Avalon is someone that I know. I greeted the old man, and he still remembers me which is nice since I do not need to awkwardly remind him of who I was. Which is one of the reasons that I do not engage in social discourse in any of the parties that I have been dragged into.
"Awraka! It is so nice to meet you again. It would have been wonderful if it had been in much better circumstances." The Shade Elder stated as he shook my hand.
"Did my ido…I mean the Lord of the Territory refuse your plea for immigration?" I asked as they do not look like they passed the examination that was conducted.
The Shade elder did not immediately say the answer to my question but instead signaled me to move with them in a place that is less open. When we reached a nearby cave, I saw the Dark Veil that made the Shades famous manifest.
The Dark Veil skill is basically a passive skill that lets them absorb and blend into the darkness of their surroundings. It is said it is given by the God of Darkness to their race for their undying devotion to him and to give them safe passage as they are more of a pacifist race than a fighter race.
The Shade Elder told me everything as he also gave me a mission and that is to deliver a specific letter to the Children of the Night. It seems that the God Erebus is finally moving as well since he is calling for the help of the Erebian. The races that are part of the vampire and werewolf species.
I do not mind a detour as I will head west anyway.. I will do my best and it seems that the demons noticed that the Shades are being monitored by others which is why they will hold another meeting wth Equinox in a secret location.
