MMORPG : Ancient WORLD

‘It is almost confirmed that I am not getting this legacy, but I am too tired to leave this place alive.’ Alex thought with a tired look.

‘Let’s drink this last potion, and if the trial starts in the next six-hour, then great if it does not start, then I am dying my first death while sitting on this magnificent throne like a freaking king.’ Alex thought as he half-heartedly drank the last bottle of Intangibility potion.

Alex stayed positive for the first three hours, but after five hours of not getting any reaction from the throne, he was logical enough to understand that the chances of him getting the legacy were negligible.

‘Maybe I am too good to get this legacy, and even this throne knows that, so let’s think about which other legacy would be the best choice while I wait for my first death.’ Alex thought, shaking off his gloomy and depressing thoughts.

Alex had no clue that while he was peacefully making plans to get the next best possible legacy, the throne had already created such a big disturbance that it had attracted the attention of many entities present in the forbidden land of darkness.

‘Lady Nachtor, The throne has already consumed half the mana present in the death miasma field, and with this huge disturbance, I am certain that few unwanted guests will be appearing at any moment.’ Okrosh said with a troubled look.

‘We can’t do anything about this situation, and I am certain that a few strong beasts would be approaching this location, but they won’t be our problem to handle.’ Nachtor replied, not appearing to be worried about the situation.

“Miss Nachtor, we meet again, and as I thought, your little friend is the reason for this huge mana disturbance.” Ulrico appeared like a ghost next to Nachtor and Okrosh.

“Sir Ulrico, I think you should ask the Sanguine Doom Guards to come for backup because if we want to see the result of this phenomenon, then we need to protect that adventurer, which would be impossible with only seven of us,” Nachtor said.

“Little girl, where is old Mordash? I don’t sense his weak presence.” A giant of a man appeared and asked while looking toward the throne and the visibly shrinking death miasma field.

“Sir Volmar, Master is away for a small mission,” Nachtor replied respectfully, not minding the man’s blatant disrespect for her master.

“Little girl, I want to know everything about this adventurer, and don’t miss even the tiniest detail,” Volmar said calmly.

‘It is annoying to be in the presence of these arrogant clowns, but the good thing is that with General Volmar’s presence, I won’t need to risk my life to defend that adventurer.’ Okrosh thought.

Nachtor started explaining everything about Alex while smartly keeping the information on the Red gem, not giving even a hint about her real mission.

“I believe the Shadow World organization already knew about this adventurer having great darkness talent to send him here to try his luck, but even they couldn’t have expected the throne to create such a phenomenon,” Nachtor said.

“I could tell that half the information you explained about this adventurer is just your speculation which I can’t blindly trust, but I will get the real truth from the adventurer after this phenomenon is completed,” Volmar said.

‘I need to negotiate a deal with the Beastmen to keep the information related to this adventurer a secret because keeping this phenomenon a secret is impossible, even if I kill everyone present in the forbidden land.’ Volmar thought.

‘I should try to buy the loyalty of this adventurer the first chance I can get before these Beastmen can give him any enticing offers.’ Volmar thought, looking toward Alex.

‘The adventurer Hidden One would be in a lot of limelight, which could cause unforeseen issues to my mission, but to be careful, I should ask the young master to send Lurquas to negotiate a deal with General Volmar.’ Nachtor thought as she made some distance from Volmar.

Alex didn’t know that a few incredibly strong people were waiting to question him while he was calmly searching his memories to find the best high Ranking dark element legacy that he could acquire.

The Sanguine Doom Guard battalion kept slaughtering any beast that came to enter the death miasma field, while the small group of strongest people kept watch on the throne, waiting for any progress.

The throne silently kept consuming tremendous amounts of mana with every passing moment, and minute by minute, five more hours passed.

In those five hours, the throne almost consumed more than 90% mana present in the death miasma field, shrinking the massive area of death into a small section of dark mist.

Alex was mildly disappointed in those five hours because he still had some hope, but those five hours only fueled the curiosity of everyone who could see the miasma field shrinking with every passing moment.

The strong Beasts were not the only ones who noticed the mana abnormality as a few fourth Rank adventurers also noticed the disturbance, and in the five hours, many came to check the cause.

The adventurer knew that going near the former death miasma field would be risky after seeing the Doom Guard slaughtering any beast that approached, so some left the area and spread the news of the death miasma field shrinking.

After the players got this news, many of them sprinted in the direction of the death miasma field to confirm the information and possibly find the reason behind the unusual phenomena, but to their dismay, the guard killed every player who tried to sneakily approach the shrinking miasma field.

The players posted the information and videos of the shrinking death miasma field on the game forums, and even though no player knew about the legacy throne, the news went immediately viral.

The news about the shrinking death miasma field was spreading like wildfire among NPCs and Players just because it was related to the forbidden land of darkness and the Sanguine Doom Guard.

Alex did browse the forums for some time, but after getting bored from doing that, he switched to watching live Raid streams while he waited for his first death.

The death miasma field was a completely quiet place because of the highly concentrated mana in the air, and because of that, Alex didn’t hear any loud clashes between the guards and beasts.

“Finally, The Throne has stopped consuming mana,” Volmar said with a bright smile.

——————-

‘There is still close to one hour left before this mist can kill me.’ Alex thought while watching a random Boos Raid live stream.

‘After I die, I won’t be able to log in for twelve hours, but I am not coming back for at least two days.’ Alex thought.

While Alex was planning how he wanted to enjoy his next two days, the throne slowly stopped consuming mana, and after a few seconds of calmness, it released a massive shock wave that cleared the surrounding dark mist.

“What happening?” Alex thought after being jolted awake by the big shockwave released by the throne.

‘The throne is responsible for the shockwave?’ Alex questioned, seeing the clear area around him.

‘What is going on?’ Alex thought, seeing thousands of mana lines released by the throne, slowly forming intricate magic circles on the ground.

‘I never heard of the legacy throne doing anything like this, but this could be some kind of hidden reward for a great candidate or a punishment for the person who doesn’t leave the throne alone.’ Alex thought, not having any clue what was happing with the throne.

The throne kept releasing mana lines that formed into small and big magic circles on the ground, and after a few seconds, hundreds of magic circles were covering the ground, with each magic circle connecting, making a giant magic circle around the throne.

‘I wonder if something like this happened in my previous life, but it was never revealed to the public.’ Alex thought as he looked at hundreds of glowing magic circles around him.

‘I don’t know what will happen, but it couldn’t be worse than dying without getting the legacy.’ Alex thought with a smile as he patiently waited for the magic circles to do their intended work.

After a few seconds, the magic circle started releasing pitch-black darkness that slowly created a dome around the throne, completely blocking the view of the spectating people.

‘I am not scared of darkness, but this silent darkness is scary.’ Alex thought after the darkness filled the inside of the dome.

“I don’t plan to sit in this darkness forever,” Alex said out loud after sitting in the quiet darkness for a few minutes, but to his surprise, he couldn’t even hear his voice.

Alex was surprised by not being able to hear his voice, but the next moment, an even more shocking thing happened as he felt a familiar feeling.

‘This is the feeling of getting teleported,’ Alex thought as he felt his body being pulled in every direction.
