Re: Player

[Two Weeks Later!]

…

As time passed, things became chaotic at a steady pace. Not in the sense that they were getting out of hand but more likely that the number of troublemakers who have entered into the city.

The first were Angels.

At first, about a dozen angels entered the city and started moving around. They mixed in with the locals and started helping with building the places and helping out people for free.

Since there was a limit to the divinity they could use, they mostly worked manually, barely using any form of mana. But since their bodies were stronger and more nourished than the other races, their help was pretty much accepted everywhere.

As time passed, the number of angels doubled, then tripled and right now, there were more than a 100 of them walking down in the city. One may even question if a war was coming out or something.

The next were demons.

Since the Angels roamed the city on the surface, the demons could only prevail in the underground market. Which they kinda did without holding back.

Compared to the number of Angels, the demons were twice as many, spreading across the underground market, enjoying to their full content. They drank wine, sang all night, created all forms of trouble all over the market.

This created a disarray in the underground market which was difficult for even the demon worshippers to bear.

If not for Leydig, one of the demons with a higher authority, the demons might have even destroyed everything within the underground city. It was only because of his authority, power and rule, that the demons were somewhat contained within the city.

Then there were a few minor Gods who took interest in the city.

They didn't enter the city, but were simply observing the situation present there. Given the powers they had, it was fairly easy for them to join in as well, but because they had heard that the Higher Gods were also roaming somewhere in the city, they could only sit and watch the show as spectators.

The Fate Weaver of Abnormality.

Zero didn't have much going on. Adam would give subtle hints that he is in the city to keep Zero running around. This was to make sure he doesn't end up moving away from the city.

Certainly Zero was quite irritated given how he couldn't find Adam despite Neptune telling him where he was last seen. There were even traces of Adam's presence giving the credibility of the information.

It also helped in increasing the trust between Neptune and Zero as they both searched for Adam.

While Neptune 'helped' Zero, he also got closer with the Saintess of Water and their guards. It was hard breaking the ice, but hearing the backstory of Neptune (Another bullshit), they finally opened up to him.

He was 'surprised' to hear their story, and decided to help them out if they could help him find his brother in this city. And that's how, the Saintess of Water, along with her guards, joined in with Neptune to search for his brother.

As for the angel…

She was never found. And the theory that she could also be a Fate weaver, was never proven. At least not yet. But that kind of information was actually what Adam was looking for, since that would change the whole outlook of this charade.

That is why Adam put extra efforts to find out about her, but since the Mermaid Kingdom wasn't exactly close, he could only find limited information that also didn't have much reliability.

Finally there was the clinic itself, which had bloomed to a considerable degree. With more angels participating, and a few more muscular men helping the situation, the business bloomed quite a bit.

Neptune never visited the clinic but passed on various materials that Iris and the others would require. He also kept increasing the frequency everyday while using [Charm!] magic to prompt the people to use less Mana.

A rumor appeared that there is a mana sickness spreading in the city, and the people with cough, fever and body ache should use as little mana as possible. This also contributed to the increased density of the mana in the city.

Even in the underground market, people started using less and less mana for the same reason. And there was a restriction on a lot of mana using devices as well. Since the demons couldn't use the natural mana, they were happy with the development in promoting the lesser use of mana by the natives.

And thus overall, the mana density which should have taken at least a few months to form, was now practically covering the skies of the coastal city. However people still can't see it because of the natural frequency that was effectively hiding that mana.

The one who was responsible for that, Neptune, was storing that mana into various devices placed all over the city, so that he can rearrange them later when the war breaks out.

Since he would need to shuffle it according to the situation and use it [Restart!] Many times to ensure his success, he was just leaving them to be collected until the day of the battle.

But that was only one of the reasons why he was collecting that much mana. The other one was that 10 days later, the [Players!] would also arrive as the [Official Server!] would launch.

He wanted to put on a great show to attract the attention of the players, so that they could follow him later like slav- companions, when he would need them.

After all, what's the point of even reincarnating in a game you had played before, if you can't even use the story, [Players] and the memories to your advantage?

Anyways, that sums up all the things that had happened in the past two weeks. And even though things were supposed to go smoothly just like any other day, they did not. And that was because…

Adam finally spotted a certain person on the beach area of the city. Or to be precise she came to meet him…

The Fate Weaver of Time, Wiregia Luciana, came to pass a message to Adam.
