Omega Summoner

Hell’s temperature was not that different from the main world, but it is a bit hotter. Adrian would have commented on the air itself, but demons do not breath in oxygen like normal humans. The surroundings are also much darker in tone compared to the main world as the sun does not exist in Hell.

There is no sun in Hell because the Goddess of Light Luminaria claims the sun as one of her symbols when it is actually or should be for all gods of light. The devils do not want anything related to the Goddess of Light Luminaria which is why all the things she is associated with is practically banned in Hell. Even the color white should not be seen in Hell as that is the color that the Goddess of Light Luminaria is proud of.

“The Hell Beast should be located in a War Zone.” Adrian muttered as he was already informed of the general layout of Hell.

Adrian needed to inspect the Hell Beast and he knew that following the influx of players would be the best way. He immediately casted Spirit Form Transformation and turned into an invisible spirit. What he did not expect is that there are other penalties if you are in the form of a soul.

[You are in a spiritual form.]

[Any beings that are in spiritual forms will receive double the damage when hit by an attack.]

Adrian is not shocked by this revelation as the angels are basically close to spiritual life form. If Adrian was actually honest then he would compare the angels to a Light Elemental as they are closer in form. Angels do not have complete physical form because they were spiritual beings when they were created.

Angels actually take offense when one call them as Light Spirits because they look down on Light Elementals. Adrian actually used this coined term to make sure that he agitates the angels to the highest degree when they talk spit about him. In the end, the proud angels could not take such a silly comparison to light spirits.

Angels might not have physical forms, but they can create a physical form if they are powerful enough. This is the reason why there are not many Nephilim roaming around as they cannot be conjured unless both parents have physical bodies. It is also the reason why the Nephilim were not able to produce more heirs as they are very few to begin with.

Adrian just made sure to be careful as he followed a group of people which have the same guild crests. He followed them to what looks like a kingdom made of red concrete. Adrian was about to sneak inside the gate when two pitch forks suddenly blocked his way.

“Pay the Toll.” One of the Devils that had the look of a horse stated.

“Pay the toll or else you will not be able to enter the city.” Another devil stated but this one had the head of a bull.

“What is happening?” One of the players asked as they could not see who the two gatekeepers of hell were blocking.

Adrian knew that the two gatekeepers could actually see him which means that they must be extremely powerful. They are also gifted in a sixth sense as Adrian could see that they did not block him due to just sight alone. Adrian could feel that there is another force at play which may have been a design for devils to counteract spiritual entities like angels.

“What do I need to pay?” Adrian asked which shocked the gate keepers as his body materialized in front of the crowd.

“Its Equinox!” One of the players shouted which made waves as he was extremely popular.

“What! Equinox!?” The crowd gathered stated as they did not expect a big shot player to be in Hell when he could be in the main world.

“Equinox! You actually need to pay them a hundred gold per entrance.” One of the players shouted.

“So, what do I NEED TO PAY?” Adrian asked as he already knew this type of transactions because this is not that different to some parts of the Underworld. .

What people think is that some parts of the underworld or the death realm is a place that can be entered as long as you pay money. The drachma that Charon gets or the silver coins that some gate keepers request but that is not true. What they truly get is something that you value and that something takes the form of what they need for you to enter.

“You are the first one that has asked us that question. Interesting as they say. Is that right, brother?” The horse headed devil stated.

“I guess you cannot fool demons, brother. They were called the original tricksters after all.” The bull-headed devil stated.

“One percent of your total mana is needed as payment.” The horse headed devil stated which shocked the players behind him.

“What did they say?!” One of the players murmured.

“Is it true? Did I hear it correctly?” Another murmured.

The bull-headed devil took out a box and Adrian released one percent of his mana. The players thought that it was not real, but they soon saw a blue orb coming out of Adrian’s palm. The mana orb that Adrian conjured suddenly turned into a hundred gold coins which shocked all of the players. Adrian placed the mana generated gold coins into the red box presented and was granted entrance.

“Perfect. Next!” The horse headed devil stated as Adrian entered the Devil Kingdom number 70.

“I shall also pay with my mana.” The one next to Adrian stated as he wanted to see if it was true.

“40%.” The horse headed devil stated which shocked the next player.

“What!? But you only demanded 1% from that guy earlier!” The player exclaimed in frustration as Adrian only had to give 1%.

The two devils laughed as they heard the explanation of the person in front of them. The two devils suddenly became firm as a powerful aura emanated from their body. The players do not know why but they felt all their hairs tingle as if they would get killed if they made a mistake.

“Pay a hundred gold if you do not want to pay with mana.” The bull-headed devil stated with a menacing aura.

The player had to fork out 40% of his mana because he did not want to argue with the guards. A mana potion that could restore 50% of his mana would cost over 110 gold coins due to severe inflation of prices. Potions that could restore that much in a span of a second are difficult to come by as only mid to major guilds can purchase them.

“Next!” The horse headed devil announced.

“35%” The bull-headed devil stated, and the player did not question and just payed.

All the players saw their mana turn into gold coins as it left their body and into the box. They could only speculate that the box is a special tool. Still, what they want to know is why the value for each person is different which is why a thread of this appeared as soon that mana can be used as an entrance fee to Hell.

User 1: Why do you think that Equinox only had to give 1% of his mana while the next guys is almost robbed of half his mana? Also, who would have thought that you can pay with mana. I thank the Arch Demon Equinox for his insight.

User 2: Eazy. Equinox might have a large volume of mana which is why 1% of his mana might be equivalent to the one that was next to him.

User 3: That is wrong. My friend and I have the same mana but mine was 30% while hers was 22%.

User 4: It might be because of various factors because Hell’s Society is not like human society that we judge upon. It could be due to total mana, quality of mana, or even the strength of the person in general. Hell’s society revolves on the strong which is why the strong is favored.

User 5: LOL! You mean to say that the gate keepers were afraid of Equinox which is why they asked for 1%. As expected of the Arch Demon!

User 6: Even devils are afraid of the demons! Let’s go!

The speculation on why the amount varies continued on for the whole day when the information of paying mana is possible. All of the players also compared each of their payment values, but they could not reach 1% like Equinox did. They just accepted the fact that Equinox was different.

What the players did not know is that the payment percentage is largely determined by the mana quality. Other factors include capacity and strength of the person, but quality is the real determinant of the percentage.

“Recruiting people for Hell’s First Raid!” A player was announcing the square which caught Adrian’s attention.
