Omega Summoner

Adrian checked the pieces that were once Kongming’s Statue of Honor, but nothing popped up of interest. The pieces of the metal statue became scrap pieces of metal that even Peridot could only tell Adrian that it is ordinary metal.

“It is not even a type of magic metal? I guess we wasted our time in investigating the scraps. We should move to the next one so that I can observe more about the boss of each tomb.” Adrian stated.

“There are not even drops that are worthwhile, but it is strange that we did not pass the test.” Peridot stated.

“It is not that uncommon since the tomb is more of a symbol than an actual tomb.” Adrian stated as he knows that this tomb is not a real dungeon but a pocket dimension.

Adrian explained that the tomb is likely an unstable pocket dimension brought forth by a mistake in manifesting a domain. He needed to be sure as the other tombs might be like this one. The group rounded up a few tombs before returning back to the House of Creation.

The three returned to the House of Creation extremely exhausted not by the enemies but with the traps inside of the tombs. Each tomb that they went inside of had different themes and the one with the vast area was the most problematic one.

“It seems that all of you have returned earlier than expected. Do we have some good news?” Nuwa asked as she saw the three of them arrive at the main hall.

Saru excused himself upon returning as he needed to report to the general once he returns to the house. Only Adrian and Peridot are left in the main hall with Nuwa. A few minutes later, the elders of the House of Creation started to assemble at the main hall as they were likely called upon by the Great Mistress herself.

“Tell us, little demon. What did you find out about the sprouting tombs in the eastern continent?” Nuwa asked as she does not have a clear grasp of these tombs. Whether they are dangerous or not to the eastern continent is still up for discussion.

“Each tomb that we visited did leak out death energy but not at the quantity that could kill a decently powerful person. For ordinary people, the inside of the tomb will most likely be their graves since death energy is harmful to ordinary people.” Adrian stated which made the elders all talk to each other to assess the danger.

“Moreover, we found out that each of the tombs are unique as the ones that we cleared did not immediately pop up again. The only thing that we were not able to prove is the skill that is granted to the ones who clear the tomb. We were labeled as not worthy for the skill which is why we returned empty handed.” Peridot stated as Adrian showed a grim expression as he did not get any spell related to arrays at all and they faced off against three array master tombs.

“Is there any way that the Champion of the Twin Gods to seal off the tombs even before you entered?” One of the elders asked.

“I would be unable to do so since modifying a dungeon is above my skill set.” Adrian replied.

“Can you at least give us a clue if this is natural phenomena or a man-made phenomenon?” Another elder asked.

“I can at least tell you that the one who is responsible for the portal from the death lands is amateur at best. It seems that they are using the memory of the land to create portals to the death land, but they summon a gate that cannot be used by normal beings.

The one responsible for this should be a person or being that is widely versatile in magic and has a connection to the realms of the dead. The fact that the portals are not big enough for a person meant that they are experimenting with their powers.” Adrian stated.

“I see but any concrete evidence?” One of the elders asked. 𝘭𝑖𝘣𝓇ℯ𝘢𝒹.𝘤ℴ𝘮

“We did not find any that links to the one who is causing thing unrest, but we managed to deduce that it should be someone with the power of a demigod or close to one. Equinox thinks that the tombs are a result of someone trying to summon a domain connected to the death lands that are connected to the ancient heroes of the eastern continent.” Peridot stated as he explained the smaller details.

“That is the most feasible answer, but should a person ascend to become a demigod then we would have sensed it.” Nuwa stated as she is the most perceptive person in the eastern continent.

“That should be the case unless he or she is using an artifact that can deceive your perception.” Adrian stated which made the elders become offended because he is telling them that their Grand Mistress is weak that a mere artifact could obscure her perception.

“It should be possible seeing that the Vermillion Bird told me that I can use her feather to make those that follow me lose their attention as it is a holy artifact.” Adrian stated which made the other elders calm down a little as the evaluation is on the level of holy beasts.

“If that is the case then one of the holy beasts must be the culprit seeing that they rule over the concept of death or at least they say they are.” One of the elders suddenly recalled.

“You mean the tortoise, right? But that holy beast rarely goes outside and sleeps for thousands of years which makes it impossible. The last time that we have known of its awakening is four hundred years ago and it does not even host a house.” One of the elders stated.

“But if what he says is true then the Black Tortoise would be the best candidate to fool our eyes since it is the holder of the black mirror. Perhaps it has chosen a worthy warrior but the domain relating to death should not be easily controlled by the living..” Nuwa stated which made the elders ponder.
