As Adrian was looking for two more targets for his remaining two shots of Shooting Star which is courtesy of his Orion''s Wrath skill, a figure from above the clouds was surveying him as well. Kaon who was flying beside Adrian that is acting like his guard sensed the killing intent that was present above them. Kaon then saw a figure descending from the cloud that is as fast as the speed of sound. The figure''s silhouette was descending at a fast rate and is bing bigger than anticipated. At first it was the size of an ant but a few secondster, it became as big as a bus. Kaon then urged Adrian to look up and before Adrian could turn around Kaon already transformed back to his original look.
Kaon and the figure shed about fifty meters away from Adrian and created a shock wave but fortunately it did not cancel the skill. Unfortunately, Kaon died in a single shot from the sh of both powers. Adrian was shocked of what happened because that thing just one shot a dragon. Adrian fired thest two Shooting Stars at it but it managed to dodge the one of the Shooting Star and its right wing was grazed by thest one fired. Adrian managed to see the details of the mysterious figure before his screen cked out and his remaining soulbounds were unsummoned. Adrian''s avatar was split in half by the monster named the thunderbird.
Monster: Thunderbird
Level: 200
HP: ???/???(99.99%)
Description: Majestic gigantic birds said to one of the Rulers of the Skies. Its whole body is a giant conductor of natural lightning and could swoop down upon its prey with the sound of thunder and as fast as thunder. This birds are extremely territorial of its territory and would attack anyone haughty enough to fly the same skies that it dered as its territory. Mortal enemies with the Great Horned Snakes and also their favorite meals.
Adrian''s avatar fell down from the sky andnded on the ground. He was shouting at his ipetence of information gathering that he did not know that thunderbirds actually fly through the skies of the Thrall teau. He was about to grumble about his loss of experience and maybe an item but he heard a system prompt about two secondster.
[yer Equinox will now revive due to the effects of the skill ''Yewdrassil''s Blessing'']
Adrian rejoiced because he was given a free revive every 24 hours. He thanked the RPG gods for this wonderful skill. that was given to him. Adrian resurrected at the ce where his avatar''s corpsended. Well, where the upper bodynded anyway.
" Seriously! Why are there strong monsters up in the sky. Now I know why some of the dragonkin rarely even fly. The sky itself is a whole new battlefield." Adrian grumbled for a few minutes to someone that is nonexistent and decided to eat his lunch since he already tested the skills for the Psyche Armament: Bow anyways.
========================
Adrian logged back inside the game 45 minutester at the same spot he logged out. He was still inside the Thrall teau outskirts anyways. He looked around him before casting mour once again on himself since it was dispelled when he died and forgot to recast it before logging out due to him grumbling at the air. He also resummoned back his soulbounds because they were sealed back when he died. He once again casted the Polymorph skill on them and decided to avert even taking to the skies due the predator roaming it.
Adrian decided to try and head to a town when he spotted a peculiar person or more specifically an NPC. It was standing just outside the field entrance for the Thrall teau. The NPC was peculiar because ot was like as if a person was wearing a bear costume with big guns on its body both physically and physiologically. The bear was buffed like a bodybuilder and had the name ''Papa Bear'' floating above his head. Adrian tried to remember where he read that name and it suddenly clicked. This was the NPC for the time limited Father''s day Event.
Adrian did not know what kind of rewards will it give if you ept its mission since it was not in the patch notes but he decided to try it for the sake of fun. Adrian walked towards the NPC Papa Bear and before he could speak Papa Bear spoke first.
" Dear Adventurer would you spare your precious time for epting the request of little old me." Papa Bear said with a cute face but it was all shattered by its buff body.
Adrian just smiled and replied, " Sure. I have nothing better to do anyway."
" Ooh..Finally someone who wants to listen. You see it seems that somebody kidnapped my son and all I have as evidence is this strand of golden hair. Would you be so kind to apany me in saving my son? I managed to trace their scent to a cave somewhere. Do you think you could help me as a back up since the strength of the monsters are too much for just myself." Papa Bear said with conviction but it was difficult to take him seriously because of its character model.
Adrian decided to wholeheartedly participate in the event so he epted the quest that was given to him.
●Quest Notification●
Find my Son
Papa Bear has been wondering around looking for his son. Help him dive into a cave where he found traces of the perpetrator.
Difficulty: Adjusted in response to yer level
Clear Reward: Unknown
Failure: Spanking from Papa Bear
Adrian did not know whether tough or cry because of the punishment upon failure. The reward is unknown but in Adrian''s mind is it would not be that difficult because the difficulty was scaled to his level.
Adrian along with Papa Bear and his soulbounds was teleported to an instance dungeon. The instance dungeon was called Aurum Cavern and like the name implies there was golden rocks glittering inside the cave.
It did not take long before an enemy appeared before them.
Monster: Cold Soup Slime
Level: 39
HP: 50,000/50,000(100%)
Description: A monster reminiscent of a slime but instead of a clear body, it has a soup body. The soup is said to be very healthy for the body and would cure colds and such. Due to it being cold, it has an acquired taste to be able to eat it. It can shoot ice elemental magic at its foes and even a part of itself as a physical missile of sorts. Somewhat immune to physical attacks.
Adrian now knows the inspiration for this event. It was from a children''s fairy-tale. Either way it is still an enemy. Adrian urged Kaon to deal with it and he provided support using his magic. Kaon fired a breath attack upon the Cold Soup Slime and its health was visibly decreasing. Papa Bear also dy damage using a methrower that suddenly materialized in its hand. It did not take long for the party to deal with the cold soup slime because they used an element that was its counterpart or weakness. The cold soup slime melted and what filled the cavern was a delicious aroma.
[You have been allured by the delicious smell of the soup. Satiety decreases by 1 per cent every five minutes.]
" Ooh...What a delicious smell that makes my tummy rumble." Papa Bear muttered.
" We should continue on. We need to find your son in a hurry. We do not even know what happened to him yet." Adrian stated to snap Papa Bear of its current situation.
" You are right! Let us go. Do not worry son. Papa is here!" Papa Bear shouted and ran past Adrian.
[Papa Bear''s motivation has been increased. His stats are increased by 10%]
Adrian tried to shout for Papa Bear to wait for him but the fellow just left him in the dust. Adrian undoes the polymorph on Sirius and hopped on him so that they could reach the super fast Papa Bear. He held Saena in his arms since its not that fastpared to Sirius and Kaon. They arrived at a fork in the road and Adrian ordered Sirius to pick up Papa Bear''s scent. Sirius went towards the right path and a few secondster sounds of a battle could be heard. They finally arrived at the location of the battle and Papa Bear was fighting a slime five meters tall which was twice as big as the Cold Soup Slime they encountered earlier.
Monster: Hot Soup Slime
Level: 39
HP: 60,000/60,000(100%)
Description: A monster reminiscent of a slime but instead of a clear body, it has a soup body. The soup is said to be very healthy for the body and would cure colds and such. Due to it being very hot, it has an acquired taste to be able to eat it. It can shoot fire elemental magic at its foes and even a part of itself as a physical missile of sorts. Somewhat immune to physical attacks. Weapons could lose durability upon contact with its body.
Adrian then ordered Saena through their soul link to heal Papa Bear as it lost some of its health. He would not let the NPC die on him or else the mission might fail. He also ordered Sirius and Kaon to strike when there is a chance. He then summoned his Psyche Armament: Bow since that is what he is currently familiar with. Adrian then entered the battle.
