Digitize: Rebirth of the Silver Death God

Chapter 167: The All Seer's Assessment

The commotion soon died down as everyone gathered in the Novice Zone and now felt relief at the prodigy's successful return. All except those who died against either the monsters or even those lackeys that Delkan and Paul Newman had already forgotten.

Naturally, unlike the selfish Newman's, some persons left with tears in their eyes, spewing out curses to any who came near them; the others, however, remained as they had awaited Village Chief Pan to confer the rewards.

Village Chief Pan seemed to be meditating after taking in all the slurs and complaints from the Digitizers descended from the Upper Zones. A strange aura connected to her as it flowed towards the summits of the sky, passing through the plump nimbus into the dazzling Universe Ring of the World of Promise, seeming to be passing down a strange kind of knowledge.

While this happened, some people stared at her impatiently, but others remained at ease, knowing that they couldn't avoid this situation.

"I see you couldn't wait to stain this young boy. Hehe, come on, tell big sister, when are you going to charm him?" The Blissful Flame Fox said as she pushed her head forward and looked at Mia.

Mia now showed an embarrassed face despite her bold action moments ago, her face crimson as she spoke, "I... I'm not some cheap fox, and he... he's not mine yet."

The Blissful Flame Fox smirked as she saw her expression; she knew that there weren't many who could force her little sister to show her slightly innocent side. She glanced at Nero, noticing his calm manner, bright silver hair, sharp eyes, and handsome but young teenage face. Her eyes flickered as she licked her lips and snickered while thinking with her fingers on her lips.

'Oh, such a boy... truly better when seen in person, no wonder he's on that list. Judging by his looks, he's certain to grow quite fine; it's a pity I' not a few decades younger. My dear sister, you've found yourself a good catch, hehe...'

With such thoughts in mind, the Blissful Flame Fox could only push down her desires as she passed them on to her sister, hoping she could claim what she couldn't.

"Well, at least he's fine; I suppose I'll leave after this old bag gives us the report," Yullia said as she looked at Nero before she glanced at Village Chief Pan.

Unaware to Nero and a few others, a familiar blond haired Asian youth stood at a corner with relief on his face as he thought to himself.

'Tsk, this damn fellow, always causing me so much trouble.'

Ryu said as he gave Nero a good look before turning and leaving the area. At this time, Elly had a sour look on her face as she paced back and forth.

"But mother, I'm fine... don't act so worried all the time."

Elly said with a helpless look on her face as she spoke to her mother using a special communication earpiece.

"You better not go into a dungeon again! Otherwise, I... I will no longer let you leave the house!" Miss Balkras said in an angry voice.

"Mother..." Elly said, feeling annoyed.

"Don't mother me! You should..." Miss Balkras yelled as she continued another lengthy speech for some time.

Nero glanced over at this, he could vaguely hear some noises, and as he did, he couldn't help but show pity in his eyes towards Elly.

'It looks like not all families are as pleasant.'

Elly, at this point, finally finished talking with her mother; after taking a deep breath showing an angry look on her face, she noticed Nero's stare.

'That bastard dared to kiss and act as if nothing happened, see if I ever talk to him again!'

Elly thought with anger as she recalled the snobby looking Mia, having her way and leaving as if she was in control.

"Hmph!" Elly snorted as she turned her head away from Nero, her entire manner emanating a will of discontent. But sadly, her attempts to show anger alone with her cute looks, and petite figure, only gave a different kind of effect to those who looked at her.

'It looks like she hates me now, haha, girls are so strange.'

Nero thought as he looked at Elly, thinking that it was both foolish and cute to act such a manner; he then turned his eyes onto the scene before him, whiling pondering in silence.

Raynas shook his head at this while thinking, 'Nero, you have a hard road ahead of you, especially when mother hears about this, sigh... I feel sorry for you already.'

Despite thinking this, Raynas showed a firm look as he continued to tap away on a virtual keyboard visible only to his eyes. A detailed report was shown, documenting many different scenarios. It was titled - a Comprehensive Report on Elly's Love Interest, codename: Wild Silver.

Naturally, Nero didn't know of such a dangerous thing because right now, he locked his eyes onto Delkan, who seemed to be eyeing him with vicious intent. He couldn't help but notice Paul Newman, who also gave him a threatening look before turning away.

'This guy... it looks like I won't have peace unless I can get rid of that darn Delkan and his family. A pity, with my current strength achieving such a thing is impossible; it looks like I'll need to make some preparations for an extended conflict.'

Nero thought while narrowing eyes; Adult Nero nodded in satisfaction; he liked how his younger self was thinking more and more; he didn't have the rash, bloodthirsty nature, or rather, the complete bloodthirstiness he did during these times in his past.

Nero soon took his eyes away from the Newman's, but he got a message right at this moment.

____

Ding!

[Avollo has sent you a message!]

____

Nero looked at that with it anger as he cursed under his breath, "Tsk, so only now you ask if I'm okay, what if I didn't make it out of that damn dungeon?"

Nero grumbled, feeling resentful about his 'friend,' but he also didn't feel too bad. After all, he did send a message in the end. Not wasting a moment, he opened it.

____

[Avollo: "Hey, you didn't die, right? That'd make me the default winner of our rematch, haha!"]

____

"That son of..." Nero was about to curse in rage, but right at this time, their Village Chief Pan finally had a change.

Buzz! Following a strange sound, she opened her eyes as the divine lights from the Universe Ring faded from her body. When this happened, her eyes shone in a bright ray before returning to normal as she rose to standing posture.

Everyone looked at her silently, knowing full well that she was ready to perform her duties as a Novice Village Chief.

Village Chief Pan looked at everyone before she spoke, "The Seer has spoken, his words are as follows: the Universe Ring of The Palace of Horrors has been sealed, and no one will be able to enter that world anymore. As for the issue prior, he states that he will be placing more protocols to prevent such incidents from occurring again. Lastly, regarding the details about the strange beings that appeared, he will withhold all information until further notice."

"What? That's unreasonable! He has to explain more of what the hell we're going up against. What am I to tell the core leaders?" Paul said.

"That's right; the council meeting is already being scheduled; there is no way we can simply take back such words to any of our factions." Another person said.

More persons added their opinions, and the situation soon turned chaotic due to various shouts. Still, some remained quiet, observing with pensive expressions.

'So troubling, Chief Levier won't be pleased about this one bit.'

Yullia said with a look of annoyance on her face.

"Blast, the family head won't give me an easy time." Paul cursed.

The sharked teeth man and thunder spark woman looked at each other before shaking their heads helplessly at the news.

Nero, or rather, his older self, had a more in-depth look; he keenly looked at Village Chief Pan, who spoke once more.

"Please do understand, although everyone here is now associates with our world, in the end, you are all still visitors. The rules here are all dictated by the Universe Ring, and the one who maintains it is the All-Seer."

The crowd turned silent at this as some major characters showed ugly looks on their faces; one of them even snorted as he spoke, "Hmph! I'll keep that in mind, come. Let's go."

He said to his group as they left the area, a few others also did, but these were persons who didn't have novices expecting their rewards.

'I guess I'll leave as well.'

Yullia thought as she started to leave the area.

Nero, upon this time, finally noticed her; she gave him a look before smiling as she spoke while walking away.

"Little Handsome, you sure have quite the luck, but I can't say if it's yet to be good or bad, do take care not to die too early. One more thing, please visit the office Friday, you will need to make a debut at the meeting before that Gate of Legends event."

'A meeting?' Nero thought, not recalling such details, but he didn't put it too much on his mind as he saw that Village Chief Pan was scanning the crowd; she gave him a smile before speaking to the reaming crowd.

"Good, I've done my message deliverance. I would like to congratulate all survivors of that dungeon raid; well done. You have completed a mission of incredible difficulty; please accept your rewards."

The scene here growing a bit more exciting as all novices showed anticipation to the current scene, hoping to claim great rewards.
