Omega Summoner

The influence of the Church of the Twin Gods increased albeit small. Since the Church of Life also lost a lot of influence due to most of their elders being killed, a small increase is already a great help. Since the kingdom changed their religion, the blessings of said religion will also come pouring in.

[The Kingdom of Suburiasi will experience great yield for this year due to the blessing of the Goddess of Life.]

[[The Kingdom of Suburiasi will no longer have deaths related to sickness for one year due to the blessing of the God of Death.]

[All people in the Kingdom of Suburiasi will experience increase in vitality due to the blessing of the Twin Gods.]

The three announcements were only heard by those in the Kingdom of Suburiasi but there were also some players stationed there. The players that received the notifications immediately took to the forums and reported what just happened.

They were wondering why a small kingdom that is only known for being in a trading relationship with the giants suddenly change their religion. Needless to say, the players in that kingdom started to investigate the Church of the Twin Gods. They thought that a Legendary NPC might be in the church at this time, and they could even gain a blessing or two.

The next day, Adrian and his two companions went to the audience hall once again. A jolly king and queen are seen playing with the third prince. The other two princes also joined in playing with their brother that has now become jolly.

“Thank you once again, Venerable One.” The king stated.

“It is but a deal. It is now time for you to uphold your end.” Adrian replied.

“Very well. Although we think that your reward is small compared to what you have done for us.” The king argued.

“It is enough. I would have argued if I fully dispelled the curse but even that is impossible for my current state.” Adrian replied as he thought that he might have been able to lift the curse if he was more proficient with life energy.

“You humble yourself too much. As an inspiration for your great help, I will try and abolish our old ways of discrimination.” The king stated as it was a demon that helped them and not humans.

“If you feel that is necessary then who am I to stop you. As long as you respect all life then the Twin Gods will never turn their eyes away from you.” Adrian replied.

“I shall personally escort you to the bean stalk.” The king stated as he is accompanied by the royal guards.

Adrian already used polymorph again as the events yesterday were made secret by only those that have witnessed it. They were escorted to the back garden of the castle where a towering bean stalk could be seen piercing the clouds. The entrance to the bean stalk is guarded by a group of mages using a barrier.

The king commanded the barrier to be lifted and all of them entered it. Adrian saw the mechanism that projected the barrier, and it does not look something that human mages created. It implored using runic letters that are hundreds of years old.

“The giants gave us that device as part of our deal in protecting the entrance to the bean stalk. They give us gold and we protect the gate in exchange.” The king stated as he already told Adrian the finer details of their deal.

It seems that the giants do not take those that climb the bean stalk lightly. Their ancestors were tasked by the giants to protect it and they gain gold shaped eggs in exchange. This is also one of the reasons that they managed to build a kingdom.

The king told Adrian that they were commoners back then. One of their ancestors climbed the bean stalk and reached the top without injury. That ancestor then met with the giants and the giants chose him to protect the area below in exchange for golden eggs. He was even given the mechanism to erect a barrier that resonated with the bean stalk.

“Still, it is a wonder that the former empire did not attempt to climb the bean stalk to talk with the giants.” Adrian stated. 𝑖.𝘤ℴ𝘮

“They did try but all those who tried climbing died on the way up because there are monsters perched on the bean stalk when you get pass the clouds. You could think of it as a dungeon, but you need to climb up to traverse it.” The king explained.

“I see. Then your ancestor must have been a very incredible person to reach the giants.” Adrian stated with flattery.

“Even we did not know how he reached the top as we are only handed down stories of his exploits. I know that the Venerable One and his companions are powerful but do take care on your way up. I do not know if the giants will welcome you.” The king stated with a rather sad tone as he cannot help Adrian’s group more.

Adrian thanked the king and immediately summoned Kanlaon. When the king saw a dragon being summoned, even his jaws dropped as his brain could not imagine that a demon managed to tame a dragon.

The three rode on Kanlaon’s back and started their climb of the bean stalk. For some odd reason, Kanlaon could not fly five meters away from the bean stalk and needed to fly close to it or else a repelling force will rain down upon his body. It did not take long for Adrian and his two companions to pierce the clouds that clouded their vision.

[You have entered the Climbing Bean Stalk Dungeon.]

[You are not the first ones to discover the dungeon, but it has yet to be cleared.]

[A special reward will be given if you clear the dungeon without dying once.]

[Reach the end of the dungeon in order to clear it.. Killing monsters will contribute to rolling a better reward.]
