Chapter 1086
Adrian suddenly rose up as Gigan has been nudging him to wake up. Adrian slowly opened his eyes as he was passed out for five minutes in the real world but fifteen minutes inside the game. He only saw a black screen when that happened which made him search for videos about raids in the meantime.
“Equinox, why are you sleeping on the floor? I know that my workshop is cozy but that is not a bed.” Gigan stated as he finally returned.
“Sorry about that. The mold you gave me had strange rune carved on it and suddenly absorbed all of my energy. I am still weakened as a result.” Adrian stated as he only recovered partially when he passed out.
“I see. Wait! What mold did you use?!” Gigan asked.
“I used the one in the corner that you pointed at.” Adrian stated as he pointed at the location of the mold.
Gigan then started to move some of the things piled up and another mold that is identical to the one he used could be seen. Adrian is shocked upon seeing that this mold did not have the same unknown rune. A wave of embarrassment suddenly hit Adrian as he stood up from the floor. He immediately checked the notification to see what happened to him. 𝓵𝓲𝙗𝓻𝓮𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝒎

“If fused inside of me.” Adrian stated as he suddenly used his evil eyes on his chest as that is the location of his demon core.
The demon core is considered the heart of all the Daemos and they will die if it gets permanently damaged. This is the reason why demons have a harder skin in their chest region as that part is the most important part. Adrian asked what happened as he read in the logs that the Cube of Paradox gave permission to whatever lodged itself in his demon core.
“I have dealt and run numerous simulations that the master will be fine and will be blessed if the permission is granted.” The Cube of Paradox stated.
“Nothing will happen to my demon core, right?” Adrian asked once again.
“Master has nothing to worry as the True Aether Reactor is an item born from your blood. It will naturally be under your command. I have made sure that it will.” The Cube of Paradox stated.
“Why is it sealed? Wait! Did you say that you made sure it will?! Does that mean that something would have happen if you did not make sure?” Adrian asked.
“The True Aether Reactor is currently sealed as it needs to be activated properly for the master to use it. No anomalies have been detected in master’s body. After all, master’s body is also my body as I am also a part of your soul.” The Cube of Paradox stated which made Adrian stunned.
He always considered that the Cube of Paradox is another brain for him. He did not think that it would actually be a weapon that has already grown a will and could decide what happens to his body. He is a bit thankful that he is still in control and the Cube of Paradox will not do anything that harms him.
“Are you fine? You suddenly stared into nothingness.” Gigan asked as he waved his hands in front of Adrian.
Adrian did not vocally speak to the Cube of Paradox as he could converse with it using his mind. He does look like he is zoning out when that happens, but he just smiled. He also explained that he is fine and that the Aether Reactor is absorbed in his body.
Gigan is shocked to find that Adrian’s body could absorb an item that is of Transcendent rank. Normal people that do not have the compatible body would often explode from the energy that a Transcendent rank item gives off. When Adrian heard this, he was naturally scared but the Cube of Paradox reassured him that his blood is the reason why he is safe.
“My blood is of the Asmodian after all. If no other blood is strong enough then nothing will be.” Adrian thought as he knew that his blood is the reason why he could absorb such item.
“Can you show it then? I want to see what it does.” Gigan asked but Adrian told him that the reactor is sealed.
Gigan did not give up as he checked Adrian’s body for any anomaly because he is partially at fault. He did not think that Adrian will use the mysterious mold that his master found. He even used some ancient medical machines to scan Adrian, but his energy is stable.
“Nothing is wrong with your body. I can rest easy that the things I will give will not go to a soon to be dead man.” Gigan stated as he gave all the artifacts that he promised to Adrian.
“Thank you?” Adrian stated with a dumbfounded expression as he found that reassuring claim to be a bit weird, but Gigan is already weird to begin with.
Adrian noticed that all the check-ups has cut too close, and he needed to return back to Avalon. His friends are also asking him where he is as the raid date is tomorrow. The location of the Horseman of Death has also been tracked which is why he needs to get back now.
“I have to go now, Gigan. Thank you for your hospitality. Although I did not get the thing I want immediately, I still got it in a sense.” Adrian stated as he excused himself and teleported away.
