Omega Summoner

Chapter 499: The Fox Clan

Adrian, who is sandwiched by four avian monsters, is now using his soulbounds to help him. He cannot move while Orionʼs Wrath is still in effect which is why he sent his three soulbounds to distract the other three avian monsters.

Sirius leapt out of Kimatʼs shadow and attacked the avian beast in Adrianʼs east side. The avian beast did not expect to be attacked which is why Sirius and it dropped to the ground. Dodu jumped away from Adrianʼs shoulder and swallowed the avian creature behind Adrian as it could not stop.

Kimat could not kill the avian creature, but he could distract it as he appeared on the back of the avian creature that is west of Adrian. The avian creature lost balance as a shock is sent into its body and dropped down t the ground with Adrianʼs soulbound.

”Got you!” Adrian muttered and the avian creature could not stop immediately as everything happened so fast.

Adrian used the three shots that the Orionʼs Wrath provided and made quick work of the avian bast in front of him. He then descended and helped Kimat with the avian beast that crashed with him. When Adrian descended, he saw Kimat licking his paw as the avian beast is now twitching on the ground.

The avian beast is now paralyzed and could not move while Kimat shot it with lightning whenever it tried moving. The elemental cat is actually toying with its prey which Adrian did not know how to feel about. He did not know what made Kimat act the way he is. He did not know that it is releasing stress as its older siblings are being bossy inside the Soul Chamber.

Dodu came jiggling about and Sirius held the avian beast by its neck using his jaw. The avian beasts became experience points for the whole party. Adrian also noticed that Kimat seemed to grow a bit, but he thought he is just imagining things.

Adrian is collecting the loot from killing the avian birds when he heard something like a flute being played. Adrian immediately tensed up and numerous fire like attacks is headed not towards him but towards Sirius.

”Sirius, go inside my shadow right now.” Adrian commanded and Sirius did just as he is commanded.

Adrian is about to run away after Sirius got inside his shadow, but he noticed that the surroundings becoming foggy. Not only does the fog blur his vision but also made him cough. He tried activating Blink, but a system notification told him why he cannot move.

[You are inside the Wandering Fog.]

[You cannot use movement abilities inside the fog.]

[You are affected by a special toxin inside the fog that induces body function failure.]

[You must get outside the fog if you want to erase its effects.]

[You are not immune to the effects of the fog.]

”I really hate the jungle.” Adrian muttered as he coughed heavily.

Adrian got scared of what might happen to him because of the fog. He immediately sealed Dodu and Kimat back to his Soul Chamber. He does not want them getting separated. Sirius is still inside his shadow and Adrian told him not to come out unless told.

Adrian knew that the ones who attacked them are after Sirius and not him. If Sirius does not show up, then he would be safe. He does not want to get separated with his soulbounds as there are reports of some NPCs being able to push out a soulbound from a summoner.

Adrian could no longer keep awake as his vision started blurring. He then fell to the ground a few seconds after coughing a bit more. Adrian knew that the fog enveloping the area is not a normal fog but a magical one as Daemos do not need to breath the normal way.

Adrian is actually right as the fogʼs poison seeped inside his skin and not through breathing. Three figures then appeared before the fainted Adrian and they looked like normal people if not for their fox ears.

”It seems that the wolf is the beast of the demon. We need to kill him for that dastardly beast to die, princess.” One of the guards stated to a beautiful woman with long black hair stated.

”Did you not see that wolf? It could dive in and out of the shadows like the Lunar Wolf back then.” The princess stated as she looked towards Adrian with deep curiosity.

”The Lunar Wolf did not have children, princess. The despicable Fenris killed all of their race. We should kill the demon now so that the seed of the Demon Wolves die out.” The other guard stated.

”If you do that then we might start a war. A demon is not someone you mess with. Their race is far too close to each other unlike our race who is in competition to become the king. Carry him as we will bring him to our village.” The princess stated as she started to walk away.

”But he might attack us if he wakes up.” One of the guards stated with a worried tone. They knew of the powers of the demons. They fear that the demon will teleport away if he wakes up from his sleep.

”Do not worry as we will trap him in a mystic circle for further questioning once we arrive at the village. King Leonidas is currently having a discussion with the leaders of the demons. He might vanish us if they knew we killed a demon and blame us for the failure of the deal.” The princess stated as her figure disappeared inside the fog.

The guards could only obey as their master has already spoken despite their protest. They carried Adrianʼs body, but they felt a subconscious emotion inside them as they touched Adrianʼs body. Adrian carried the blood of the Asmodians and the Asmodians are basically their leaders.

The guards felt they are carrying someone important and gave extreme care in holding his body. They carried Adrian as if he is something so precious that their life could not be enough to compensate if something were to happen.

Adrian woke up after twenty minutes, but he is not asleep in reality. He stared at a black screen of inactivity for the whole twenty minutes. He even got a system notification that told him to listen to music or doodle for the next twenty minutes.

”So, this is what happens when someone is put in a sleeping spell. They basically just see nothing and is even given the option to access the browser. Beasts staring at nothing.” Adrian stated as he accessed the forums of the latest news.

[You are now waking up.]

The system notification appeared, and Adrian woke up in the game which he thought could not happen. He is then greeted by a magic circle below his feet that he could not read the sigils. The magic circle that is below him is very foreign to him as he could not even read what it does.

Adrian immediately got up and rushed to the door that he saw but he just collided with an invisible barrier. The barrier even has a rebound function which not only sent him back but also created a sound that notified the guard behind the door.

The sound of someone relaying orders could be heard outside the door. Adrian could hear clearly as the magic circle below him only prevented mana consumption and limiting the area he could go. Adrian unfurled his wings and tried flying away but he collided with a flat barrier about three meters above him.

The door then opened, and Adrian saw a beautiful lady with long black hair. She would have passed as a human if she did not have the fox ears on top of her head. Adrian knew that he is now in the territory of one the beastkins. He did not dare to speak and just observed for now.

He knew that in a stand off between two people, the first to speak usually loses. He waited patiently for his chance and just stood there. He also noticed that the beastkin lady did not come close to the magic circle or even attempt to step on it. Adrian could deduce that the magic circle could affect everyone that stood inside of it.

”It seems you are not curious of your current location, or you are waiting for me to speak. So, I will speak. What is your name?” The beautiful fox lady asked Adrian.

”Equinox.” Adrian answered after a few seconds of silence which the guards did not like.

”You! Behave. You are in front of our leaderʼs daughter!” One of the guards stated as he through a dagger that flew past Adrianʼs shoulder but did not hit him. Adrian just eyed at the dagger and smiled as he knew that he would revive on Avalon if he died.

”Get out.” The beautiful lady shouted but the guards protested.

”I said get out. Did I not make myself clear?!” The beautiful lady commanded which the guards obeyed. Adrian did not comment while this happened and just observed. He really wanted to act like this as the main character in spy movies he saw always acted like this.

”I am sorry for my servantʼs rudeness. Let us do that again. I am Ashana. Nice to meet you.” Ashana stated as she revealed her six fox tails.

”Hoo…was it an act or did her guards like being rude to their prisoners? Nevermind as she seems open to talk anyway.” Adrian thought as he smiled and answered, ”Nice to meet you too.”
