Chapter 244: The Undead Sailing North (1/2)
Adrian waited patiently for Bronx to give him a decision even though time is heavily ticking away. He wanted to get an answer immediately because Adrian is sure that Aurgelmir is only halfway done. Adrian even thought that the quest that is given to him is actually doomed to fail because of the short time span he is given.
Finally after acting like he has no other options, Bronx finally gave him a group of individuals. Three Imps are tasked to accompany Adrian for only a limited time.
”You three will accompany my favorite student for two hours before you resume your duties. I hope you can understand my worries, Equinox. We are already stretched too thin on forces. You can only blame the twin gods for creating an ever expanding universe.” Bronx stated as he told the instructions to the three imps accompanying Adrian.
The three imps then went out of the tent with Adrian in the front. Adrian then told them to introduce themselves. Their names were Une, Deux, and Trois. It seems that the three of them were siblings but they do not look the same. Though they do look downright gorgeous which really enforced how hard the developers worked on accentuating beauty.
Une is a female imp that has light purple hair like the other two but she dressed sexily. She is like the imp version of Jianna because of their same style of clothing. Deux is more like a warrior as he is heavily armored and has a great sword as a weapon. Trois is wearing robes like that of a typical mage and you can feel an air of knowledge coming from him.
There is an obvious sign of displeasure on their faces but an order was an order. Adrian could also feel that they are only putting up with him because of Bronx' command. Adrian could not bother increasing his intimacy with them because he can only command them for two hours so he had to put them to work immediately.
”We are heading to the far north so I hope you guys can tolerate the cold.” Adrian stated as he looked at their statuses.
NPC: Une
Tier: Rare
Level: 170
NPC: Deux
Tier: Rare
Level: 185
NPC: Trois
Tier: Rare
Level: 170
The highest leveled individual is Deux and Adrian could see why. Deux looks more battle hardened than the other two which is normal because the three siblings do not belong to the same division.
Une belongs to the intelligence division where they gather intelligence using methods such as mind control, telepathy or seduction. Deux belongs in the warrior division and they are tasked to hunt outside or go on missions inside. Trois is assigned in the mage division where they mostly just research and monitor the ”Demon Eyes”.
The Demon Eyes are the special item that the demons spread in other worlds in order to monitor them. The Demon Eyes are effective but difficult to make and easy to break or find a location to put it in.
The demon eyes are usually placed in a place where there is a weak spatial integrity so that the other races would not be able to find them easily. No one likes to know that every move you do is monitored. Although the Daemos are essentially the new protectors, they do not solve minor problems unless those problems are world ending or cataclysmic to an entire race.
There are rare occasions when they do step up like when a dragon wanted to raze a whole world to ashes. It seems that the dragon's child is captured by the inhabitants of an area because it was causing problems. The dragon's child in question actually harmed itself so that its mother would come and get him.
This became so troublesome because the mother dragon was so angry that it burned the settlements his son was taken captive to the ground. The mother seeing her son's injury became enraged and wanted to kill every person in the world which is why the Daemos had to step in.
This apparently is the reason why dragons hated the demons or Daemos. Dragons are prideful creatures and do not like being subservient or being proved that they are weaker. Kanlaon is an exception because it imprinted on Adrian.
Long story short, the Daemos Elders made the mother dragon experience an infinity loop to calm her rage down while another elder scolded the child dragon. Upon calming down, the mother dragon is presented the recorded happening in the god's eye but the love of a mother is truly difficult to quell.
