MMORPG : Ancient WORLD



In a dark, gloomy room stood three cloaked individuals before a calm dark mirror, and after a few moments of silence, the mirror started to twist, oozing with darkness, making all three individuals drop to one knee with their heads down.

"Stand Tall," A deep voice echoed in the room, and the three cloaked figures stood up, and before them, the once pitch-dark mirror now showed a man seated on a throne shrouded in darkness.

"Long Live The Embodiment of Wrath, The Great Demon Duke Of Deadly Sin," All three individuals said in unison as they stood straight, looking toward the man.

The Man referred to as the Embodiment of Wrath, looked nothing like one would imagine, as he had a handsome appearance of a dark elf wearing a dark Robe with ornate silver edges with two red goat horns that curved inverted on his forehead.

"Wrathahr, The Preparation for opening the Continental Portal will be completed in two weeks, and the portal will be opened exactly eighteen days from now,"

"You will receive an army with over a thousand High Demons, with their strength ranging from early to peak Fifth Rank, over a Hundred Thousand Fourth Rank warriors, and over Ten Million lesser demons,"

"You will be given an Ancient Artifacts [Omen Cube of Unbound Protection] to create a giant protection barrier covering the whole of Dorthon Mountain Range as its center and a sizeable portion of endless forest,"

"The barrier will prevent anyone with higher strength than the fifth Rank from entering while it couldn't be breached from the outside by even an Elemental Ruler,"

"But keep it in mind that the barrier could only stay active for Ninety days, and each day it will consume the lifeforce of a fourth Rank warrior to stay active,"

"Caden and Fabian, You two will have ninety days to find the target individual, and you can locate him by using the artifact [Luminal Nexus],"

"The Artifact has the ability to sense abnormalities in any individual soul, and to narrow down your search, you should look for individuals of extraordinary abilities for their Rank and who use the dark element,"

"Wrathahr, you know what you must do, After the target is located," The Demon Duke said as the dark mirror returned to normal.

After a few seconds of silence, one of the three individuals removed his dark cloak revealing his handsome face.

"I truly want to meet with this kid and find out his secrets which have made the Demon King scrap the plan that was prepared to take care to control the Human Continent," The man said, looking toward the other cloaked figures.

"I am not interested, and Caden, you should also not be interested in that individuals secrets because if the plan goes even slightly wrong because of your greed, then even your status as the champion of Sin will not save you from a fate worse than death,"

"Wrathahr, I am taking my leave. You can content the Cult Elders and inform them to complete their preparations and be prepared to act on the second plan if things don't pan out as we want," The cloaked figure said as he vanished into the shadows.

"He is a bit too cowardly for being a champion of Sin, or maybe he is just too Lazy because of his Sin of Sloth," The human mumbled as he vanished, leaving the towering figure alone in the room.

Alex entered his palace room looking exhausted, deep in thought, as he walked toward the bed.

'Varon said I need to progress my strength to find out why my darkness legacy weapon has unlocked Time element skills and not any darkness-related skills while the boost effects the weapon provides are of purely dark nature,'

'This confirms that there is a deeper meaning to Umbris having time element skills and for Erebus to not leave me a mythical weapon of pure dark nature,' Alex thought, looking at the newly unlocked skills of his legacy weapon after the restoration.

--------------

Time Weave: Manipulates the threads of time around the weapon, imbuing each strike with a residual temporal effect for the next (60 Seconds). These effects can cause the targets to become disoriented in time, temporarily freeze in place, or age rapidly, making them rapidly lose health stamina, Mana, and Mental energy.

---------

Temporal Beacon: Mark up to Three specific points in time and space using temporal energy. The User can later use the markers to instantly teleport back to any of those marked locations.

----------------I think you should take a look at

After spending nearly twenty hours and absorbing thousands of weapons ranging from gold to peak epic quality, Alex restored his legacy weapon from a measly 0.00007862% to 20.129%.

The sword boost effects were increased, but they stayed of dark nature, while two skills were unlocked, one at 10% and the second at 20%.

Alex had many questions filling his mind, with the main one being if Chronos, the Titan of time responsible for sending him back in time, knew he would receive Umbris as his legacy weapon after acquiring the Darkness Ruler legacy.

If Umbris had any connection with the titan of time, was there a plan the titan had for him when he specifically told him to take the Darkness Ruler's legacy?

Alex had countless questions, and he wanted nothing at the moment but their answers, but he couldn't acquire those answers, as Varon or anyone with the answers wouldn't tell him.

The only other possible source he had that could give him answers was his legacy weapon, but even that wasn't getting restored as he wanted.

After reaching twenty percent recovery, the weapon recovery barely progressed even after absorbing hundreds of high-quality weapons, and at the pace it was recovering, Alex will need millions of weapons and spend weeks to reach the 30%.

'I will eventually find out the answers, but for now, let's log out,' Alex thought, lying on the bed and returning to Earth.

Alex had informed his two guardians that he would rest every forty-eight hours for seven hours for the next two weeks as he would need that much time to make his mother's worries disappear and return to his normal schedule.

Alex left his VR capsule, and the first thing he did was check the Galatic system and was greeted with his status window, which was completely similar to his game profile without levels or any skills.

Alex was a bit surprised to see all his stats being over thirty while his mana was over hundred points which made him question if such improvements were normal after awakening mana, but he quickly dropped them and moved to the world chat.

'There are more awakened than I expected,' Alex thought, looking at the floating blue screen before him.

-------------

Total Members: 612

Awakened Members: 431

Active Members: 142

Open World Chat.

[Do you want to use Your Real name or an Alias]

Alex used Hidden One as his name and entered the world chat, and even though it was not active, scrolling through the old messages, he spotted quite a few names that he recognized from the game.

The majority of messages were casual talk, discussing the growing number of awakened in the recent weeks after the restrictions were lifted, while there were a few members who had boasted about their progress and skills they could execute.

There were discussions of what technologies some of the parties were interested in buying and offered left by big names for unaffiliated or even affiliated awakened to join their Ranks for ridiculous sounding offers.

After spending a few minutes, Alex understood that most individuals weren't even hiding their identities while there was barely any information that one couldn't gain from the system available in the chat.

Alex kept scrolling through the old chat to not miss any solid information that he should be aware of, and after an hour or so, he reached the first message in the chat posted by the system less than a year ago.
