Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

"Warriors?" Clyde asked the question that suddenly appeared in his mind.

'Does that mean there will be - or already happen - some kind of war between the Celestials?'

Nimue tilted her head to one side. "I seem to have said too much. Well, it's fine since I got permission from The Duchess."

This conversation with Nimue only provoked more questions for Clyde. But he knew that he could no longer ask. So Clyde chose to remain silent.

"I think that's enough for now. I can't tell you anything anymore," Nimue said. "You can leave now and this cube will disappear."

Clyde only replied with a small nod. Then walk out of the cube.

"Until we meet again, Clyde."

That's what Nimue said before Clyde got out of the cube.

When Clyde was completely out, the cube immediately disappeared without a trace as if it had never been there.

His mood is now much better because he got a very extraordinary reward.

Demon Essence to upgrade the Elderglass Sword, a skill, and an enormous amount of coins. Even if he didn't get the answers he wanted, at least he got all of that.

'It seems she really didn't want to give me a clear answer from the beginning.'

Clyde shook his head wearily. He shouldn't have his hopes too high that he would get everything he wanted from a Demon.

But he managed to come up with one answer that seemed to be the limit Gremory could give him. That is, the way to defeat the Outer God on the fifth day.

'I don't need to sign any contract with Luccio.'

Clyde came out of the subway station and walked towards the direction the motel was located.

He had expected that many questions would come his way once he returned. And that would be really annoying.

He sighed as he continued walking. "What lies should I tell them?"

~~~

The train finally stopped at a station. As soon as the door opened, Luccio immediately stepped out.

There was only himself getting off the train. Because it's rare to use the train at this time.

This is an unnatural thing. Therefore Luccio's arrival here was something that might come as a surprise to all who saw him.

When he came out of the station, what greeted him was a cityscape that seemed to have come out of a movie and a science fiction book that told about the utopian achievements of the future human being.

The towers are smooth with no glass windows. At least that looks from the outside.

The shapes of the towers also look very different from what is on Earth. Again, it just looks like something came out of films and books of science fiction stories.

Luccio entered a tower that stood tallest and biggest in that place.

The tower was shaped like a staff which was smooth white from the outside.

There was something like a pitch-black crystal ball at the top which was flanked by four pillars.

The sight of the orb is a stark contrast to this tower and all the mostly white buildings in this place.

Luccio's gaze was straight ahead. The dim green flame seemed to always be burning within his eyes. Make people who see him not want to approach him.

Luccio took the elevator to the top floor. In his head, he kept imagining how he experienced humiliation by the servant.

*Ting!*

The elevator bell that had reached its destination made Luccio come back to reality.

As soon as the door opened he immediately walked out with long strides towards a room at the end of the corridor.

After knocking on the door several times, Luccio went inside.

"Luccio?" A man with gray hair in his chair frowned. "Why did you come here at a time like this?"

Luccio's face formed a stiff expression. Then he said. "Chief, there was a problem that occurred in the Selection Stage that I managed."

Clyde had seen his motel ahead. But suddenly he saw Agatha standing against the wall in an alley.

She waved at Clyde with a smile on her face. Agatha acted like a friend who was meeting an old friend after a long time.

Clyde walked up to her. 'Is she want to give the reward from the Personal Request she gave? I suspect she will be the same as Gremory and just gonna give me vague answers.'

Clyde was already prepared to get an answer that wasn't very useful. So he didn't expect too much when he approached Agatha.

"Good job, Clyde. You managed to finish it well," Agatha said with a smile. "Time for your reward. Ask your question."

"How can I easily get the treasure in tomorrow's chapter?" Clyde immediately asked the question he thought would be most useful and got the clearest answer.

After all, he only had one chance to ask a question and he knew he would get no further answers more than this.

Agatha's eyes opened at Clyde's question. "H-How did you know about that?"

"That's not important. Just answer my question since I'm pretty tired after killing 1,000 Wendigos."

Agatha still couldn't break out from surprise.

"No no. Who did you meet in the subway earlier?" she asked.

She, of course, noticed when Clyde disappeared suddenly from the monitor while she was watching him on the subway earlier.

She suspected that he had actually met someone there but Agatha didn't expect that Clyde would get a 'spoiler' from whoever he met earlier.

"I met a woman in black," Clyde answered curtly.

"The woman in black?" Agatha looked thoughtful. She had an idea about who Clyde had met.

"What else did she tell you?" Agatha asked in a demanding tone.

"I can't say." Clyde looks firm. He looked Agatha straight in the eye and confirmed that he had no intention of giving any more answers.

Agatha sighed. Even though she wanted to know, she couldn't force Clyde. She could make him talk him using force but that was clearly unnecessary.

Luckily, Luccio wasn't here so there was nothing to worry about.

And Clyde could be someone she could use in the future. So there's no reason to make him hate her now.

"Fine. I won't ask about that anymore. This Selection Stage is already a mess anyway," Agatha said. "So, you want to know how to get the treasure for tomorrow?"

Clyde nodded curtly.

"Alright, I'll tell you in as much detail as I can because I like you." Agatha tried to smile seductively.

However, Clyde just stared at her with a straight face. So the smile on Agatha's face vanished instantly.

She snorted in annoyance and then said. "Okay. The way to get it is to enter the Main Control Tower. There, you must enter the office of the 10th Division and then look for a Hidden BOSS named 'X-1000'.

After you kill it - which is not easy - you will get a treasure box containing the rarest item."

'And in that treasure box, there must be the Nightmare Orb that I need.'

"Thanks," said Clyde.

"Remember, don't tell anyone about meeting me. Be it Luccio, or whatever Celestials you meet in the future," Agatha said.

"I didn't plan on saying it," Clyde said. "When will the BOSS appear?"

"Since Luccio is away, I'm free to decide when the BOSS will appear," Agatha said with a happy smile. "When do you want me to summon that BOSS?"

Clyde frowned. "Why you ask me?"

Agatha shrugged. "It's just... I want to give you something else besides answering questions."

"Then make it easier for the BOSS this time. Return the apocalypse settings to their original settings."

"I think I can do that." Agatha looked thoughtful. "Though it might take a little effort."

After some thought, Agatha said. "I'll let it out at four in the afternoon."

Clyde nodded and walked out of the alley. Agatha looked at his back with a smile still on her lips.

"It was thanks to him that I managed to get 2,500 Coins. It was very good so it seems that providing the information was worth the price."

Agatha then disappeared from the alley after Clyde left. Returning to her white room to watch.

~~~

As soon as Clyde returned to the motel, he immediately saw Rodney eating a potato chip in the lobby.

Rodney is alone. He stared at Clyde as he walked in with a slightly tired face.

Rodney also saw that there were some small rips in the black coat that Clyde was wearing. In addition, there are also incisions on his face.

Rodney also noticed that the sleeve of the black coat seemed torn by something. Seeing that, Rodney's eyes opened slightly.

'What happened to him?'

Seeing Clyde's state that looked like he had just gone through a difficult battle, even though he was the strongest among them made Rodney speechless.

What he saw made Rodney feel that what Clyde had said before leaving this motel was true. What he faced out there was indeed not something they could face.

"Where are the others?" Clyde asked.

Clyde's voice snapped Rodney out of his daze.

"O-Oh? They're in their rooms," Rodney replied.

"What are you doing here?"

"I didn't do anything," Rodney replied with a faint smile.

Clyde nodded and walked past him. "I'm going to rest for a bit before fighting the BOSS."

"BOSS?" Rodney stood looking at Clyde. "The BOSS will appear soon?"

"Four o'clock. Tell that to the others. I'm going to take a nap."

'He even knows when the BOSS will appear. Did he meet the beings behind this apocalypse?'

Rodney wondered as he watched Clyde's back disappear into the room.
