Chapter 69: [Tutorial 5: Quests!]
[Adrian' POV!]
When I first began looking at the quests, I got a simple quest without any proper direction.
[Normal Quest!]
[Quest: Protect the City!
Difficulty: Impossible!
Objectively: Protect the city for as long as possible!
Time limit: None!
Rewards: Will be based on the time the city survives!]
I was confused due to the lack of information it provided. Though I didn't think much of it as I began looking at the next quests.
[Continuity Quests!]
[Re-establish the Glory of the City!
You will receive +1 Skill Points for each of the tasks that you perform!
-Removing the Symbols of Holy Light from outside the city walls!
-Killing each Otherworlders that has invaded the city!
-Saving each Vampire within the city!
-Destroying each of the [Consumer] that are present within the city!
-Hunting down the [Watch Dogs of Sun God!] that appear randomly within the city!]
As I read the text, my eyes narrowed at them. I had guessed it before, but from the description of these, it seems like… the Vampires aren't really the bad guy here.
'So killing that Baron Vampire was a wrong move? Nope. It was purely self defense… plus he committed suicide so it wasn't exaclty my fault,' I gave it a bit of a thought before looking at the rest of the quests.
Seems like the development of the story got rather interesting.
[Skill Based Quests!]
[Quest: The one who will free them!
Difficulty: Insane
Skill Required: Any Combat based skill!
Description: The Kingdom has fallen in the lands of the [Otherworlders!] and the natives of the city were being held in the underground of the city, against their will. Their blood is being forcefully sucked out of their body and is being used to create a serum that gives temporary boost to the [Otherworlders!].
Even though they want to escape from this never ending madness, the 7 [Royal Guards!] sent by the [God of Sun!] are guarding their escape, rendering them unable to do anything.
Objective: Kill the 7 [Royal Guards!] and free the path for the NPC to escape.

"So… it's that type of scenario, huh?" I analyzed the situation for a few seconds before I understood the gist of it.
The scenario is pretty much straightforward. The humans, which in this case are from another world, are the bad guys while this entire world is vampiric in a sense. They are the main natives of this world who lived and thrived, while the humans just happen to land here from somewhere.
Honestly…
The first quest might truly confuse all the players, making them lose their life before they could even realize what is going on. Or they might be used to kill the vampires while the real villains would just sit by and relax, huh?
I thought as I sighed at the entire scenario before looking at the [Hidden Quest!]. This time there were a lot of them, so I wonder what they were all about. Hopefully it would let me find some crucial information about the situation
[Hidden Quests!]
[Quest: The cry of the Fallen Prince!
Difficulty: Insane!
Description: The Kingdom of Reiga has been taken over by the humans. Even though they could have killed all the vampires, they decided to treat them as livestock, using their blood for their own purposes. One of the Vampires, the Fallen Prince Lincoln, a mere 12 years old boy, was thrown into the underground prison, becoming a mere plaything for the Saintess' pleasures.
He is barely able to keep his sanity, but given how he is tortured every night, he won't be able to survive for long.
Objective: Save the Fallen Prince from the clutches of the Saintess
Time limit: 7 Days!
Reward: [ Next Chain Quest - The Last Hope of Reiga!] ]
[Quest 2: The Last Hope of Reiga (Undefined until the quest (The Cry of the Fallen Prince) is completed!]
[Quest 3: A war of two worlds (Undefined until the quest (The Last Hope of Reiga) is completed!]
[Quest 4: Redemption of the Cruel King!
Difficulty: Insane!
Description: The Last King of Humans was murdered by Aboth, the head Minister, because he was against the methods of the ministry regarding the ways of dealing with the Vampires. Even though he was in favor of conquest, he was against the methods of cruelty towards the Vampires. Though with the help of his trusted servants, he was able to escape death somehow.
Unfortunately, he has now become a vampiric slave working under the city.
Objective: Find the Cruel King and help him achieve his redemption!
Reward: [Item: Ring of the Lone King!] ]
[Quest 5: The Prince's ways of things!
Difficulty: Insane!
Description: Prince Rehan is planning to take control over the incoming heroes, trapping them within the castle. His aim is to use the players as fuel to generate enough energy to charge the ancient runes. He would go as far as possible to achieve his life long goal.
Objective: Find a way to break the imprisonment spell!
Reward: [Title: Savior!] ]
[Quest 6: The Dead Saintesses plea!
Difficulty: Impossible!
Description: The Saintesses used to summon the Heroes and before, were forced to kill themselves in exchange for power. It wasn't their choice but their families and friends were threatened, and in exchange they had no choice but to succumb to the Cruel King.
Objective: Find the wandering Ghosts of the Dead Saintesses and listen to their request!
Reward: [Chain Quest: Angels' Request!] ]
[Quest 7: Angels' Request (Undefined until (The Dead Saintess' Pleas!) is completed!]
A flare entered my eyes, as I read through those quests. I am not a kind person, I know it's bad what they did with the vampires. Even though I would have still saved those vampires, I would have definitely done it for the rewards rather than the people itself.
But it's a different thing if they were going to target my friends. To use them as a power source? Just who the fuck do they think they are to do that?
'I will fucking kill the prince… no. I will make sure he begs me for death. Same goes for the other filthy bastards,' I vowed in my mind as I looked at the quests before calming myself a bit.
[Unique Quests!]
[Quest 1: The War of Two Worlds!
Difficulty: Impossible!
Status: The Quest won't start until all the [Hidden Quests!] are completed!
Description: As the war between the Goddess of Darkness and God of Light continues, the tension between the two worlds increases. The World that was cherished by the goddess of darkness was being threatened by the God of Light!
The God of Light will do anything to take over this world. He has used his powers to call upon the heroes from a different dimension, and has decided to use their power to fuel his own soldiers. He will go through any means necessary to achieve power, even going as far to take over the souls of all those which he has captured and make them their eternal slaves.
The Humans have already taken a step over a city in this new world, and with their unbeatable power, they will soon take over other cities, making everything sustainable for their own self, for their original race, 'The Humans from World: Ri'
And this won't stop until at least one of the races is completely dead.
Objective: Pick a side and fight for what you believe in!
Rewards: [Chain Quest: Till Last breath!] ]
[Quest 2: Till Last Breath! (Undefined until the quest (War of the Two Worlds) is completed!]
[Quest 3: Fight against a God! (Undefined until the quest (Till Last Breath!) is completed!]
My eyes observed the description a couple of times before a vein began bulging on my forehead. It is fine if you want to take over your rival's world. It's fine if you were going to fulfill your aim of domination.
But you just had to bring me and my friends into it…
'This is a bit sad. It's going to be too time consuming… I wish to relax but… it's necessary…' I thought as I then muttered in a low voice,
"Seems like… I would need to wipe an entire race this time."
I should start with that damned kingdom first.
I sighed before looking at the last quest, even though I had already lost interest in it. I just wanted to go there and massacre everything right now. But still… Let's not hurry. Hurrying will only end up in me making more mistakes.
[Quest: ???

"…"
I… didn't know what to say. I mean… What's the point of even showing me this?
"Well. Not like I can do anything about it," I sighed as the information I had just received from all these quests was too much. I had to sit down and reassess everything that I had learned up until now.
If I am going to destroy the entire kingdom, even the world perhaps, then I might need to plan more than just a couple of things. I can't just run and destroy everything now, can I?
And since I had all the time in the world here in this stopped space, I began plotting everything that I needed to do.
