Omega Summoner
chapter-685

"I see. Well, I should now start arranging my stuff as I will now take my leave." Adrian stated as he does not want to get caught up in anymore problems since he already handed down the right of guardianship like what Koronn planned.

The old man is too busy to even monitor the black stone all the time which is why he planned it to be relegated to someone else. He will just need to drop in occasionally in order to see the progress and Ryujin value honor above all as their motto.

No mishaps will happen as long as they keep their word, and the demons honor the deal. Koronn also wanted it placed in Mt. Thunder as he also knows about the restrictions of the mountain which means powerful followers of the dark gods will not be able to interfere with the black stone.

"How can you return when you cannot activate your spells that connect two locations? You should just wait here until all your mana circuits are fixed." Peridot stated as she knew that the only way for Adrian to return would be through riding Kanlaon all the way to the central continent.

"Do not worry as I have a scroll!" Adrian stated as he took out a teleportation scroll from his inventory.

Adrian was fairly confident that this will work and is actually showing a smile. Soon, that smile turned into a frown and then the act of throwing the scroll to the wall. A system notification brought out that reaction from him.

[Cannot use the item due to broken mana circuits.]

[Time left before mana circuits are repaired: 10 hours and 5 minutes.]

"You might have underestimated the curse placed upon you little brat. It is a curse placed by the world itself as you defied phenomena and brought about a miracle. People might not know this but 'Miracles come at a price'. Some pay it in advance, some pay it in the future and others like you…pay it upfront." Nuwa stated as she left the room to attend the meeting with the elders.

"Even I thought it might work since you could use summoning magic earlier." Peridot stated.

"I thought as well but it only solidified one of my speculations in summoning magic." Adrian stated.

"Well, look at who has so much free time to become a scholar. What did you find proof about then?" Peridot asked.

"I found proof that summoning magic actually completely uses the soul as the catalyst instead of the mana circuits present in one's body. That is the most plausible reason why I could use summoning magic earlier. I guess I need to stay here for 10 hours to recover my magic circuits." Adrian stated with a sigh as he really wanted to leave the place.

"What if I activate the magic scroll for you so that you can be on your way?" Peridot asked.

"Do you want to kill me or trap me in an unknown dimension or something?" Adrian asked rhetorically.

"Can that even happen?" Peridot asked with a serious expression.

"There is a 0.00001 chance that it could happen if you use the scroll on yourself, but I do not know how big the rise of that chance is if it is used on others. I do not want to be trapped in the Void for ten whole hours." Adrian stated as he already experienced what would happen if spatial magic were to fail or go wonky.

"Are you not sending us to our deaths by giving these things to us then? You are basically giving us a random bomb that could explode if we make a mistake." Peridot stated as she hit Adrian's head with the scroll that he tossed.

"Ouch! Do not worry as that will not happen but these scrolls are designed to be used by the caster since it will register your mana safely. You would be fine, but I will be the one that pays the price if you ever so made a slight mistake.

Have you not seen that all magic scrolls in this game uses a non-targetable skill or only those that could affect the body of the caster? If a magic scroll that could pinpoint a target would ever surface, then they could easily assassinate someone without even revealing themselves.

Not only one or two kingdoms will be at war but the whole world will be affected. A perfect assassination tool will be created if someone ever manages to do what I just told you. It would no longer be a fun game as magicians will be persecuted and those that can create magic scrolls will be burned at the stake." Adrian stated in a serious tone.

"Yah! I just had goosebumps when you told that. You really are a genius but it such a shame that you are using it in analyzing the possible future of a game. I suddenly remembered something my grandfather told me about that.

'Misplaced geniuses are often called Fools'. I guess you fit that bill to a tee. Sometimes I wonder why you even bother with the things that are not a big part of your life." Peridot stated in a sarcastic and yet judging tone.

"But Pandemonium has already been a big part of my life and it has made me realize some things." Adrian stated with a face filled with hope and genuine happiness.

"Yah! If you make a face like that when saying something cheesy then you will only make me look bad for even saying something like that to you. Anyways, I am glad that you are enjoying the game as much as I thought you would be.

Imagine! You were the one that begged us to play with you in Pandemonium, but you actually started late. The nerve to even make us wait. If you were not sick, then I would have beaten you to a pulp for not even keeping your promise." Peridot stated with a smile that showed genuine happiness to for a friend that found his way in life.
