Novel Full Chapter 420 A Live Chat With The Gods Of Arcadia?!
—–
After having fought against the crowd of crazed fans, and going back to the Forest of Beginnings, I suddenly saw a large system window pop up before anything else… It was something related with the Gods themselves, no less!
Ding!
[The various Gods of the world of Arcadia would like to talk with you about recent events!]
[Should you listen to them, the Gods promise they will reward you handsomely.]
And they’re going to reward me for merely agreeing to talk with them? Are they that desperate about talking with people or is this… another reason?
Well, I don’t lose anything hearing them over.
And this way, I can also ask them some questions regarding the Demon King! Now that I saw his past, my head’s filled with questions.
Such as why they left him like that?!
Why were they so stupid?
And why… why is Gaia completely ignoring him now?!
I want answers!
“Everyone, I’ve got an important call… Ah, Rita, Lily, can you cook something for the village people to celebrate another peaceful day? Here, have these guys to help!” I said, quickly summoning around a dozen Cooking Spirits of all shapes and sizes.
“Foowaa!”
“Foofooo!”
“Fweeeh!”
Rita and Lily nodded, rather confused.
“S-Sure, but who’s calling you?” Rita wondered.
“I don’t mind either… But yeah, is it something really urgent?” Lily wondered.
“YES, really, REALLY urgent.” I nodded, quickly whisking away from the scene by retreating my [Yggdrasil Avatar].
It would be weird if I was interrupted by my friends while talking with the Gods of Arcadia, so I better be careful, concentrating my soul and consciousness into my tree body.
POP!
Suddenly, a small little face, my face, emerged in my tree body.
“Woah, I guess I can do this too… I wonder if I could move the whole tree… Well, that’s for later.” I sighed. “Guide, accept the request of the Gods, let’s talk with them.” 𝐞𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺
“V-Very well… I am just as nervous as you are! Y-You better behave in front of them, Planta!” The Guide said.
Ding!
[Initiating [Live Chat] with [Game Masters: Council of Gods]…]
[Live Chat has begun!]
FLAAAASH!
Suddenly, all my surroundings changed. Pixels made by the system emerged one after the other, reforming all of my surroundings into a completely different space.
This space… could only be described as some sort of outer space, or event the cosmos itself. I saw stars everywhere, the darkness of outer space, planets and even meteors everywhere…
It was a rather beautiful, and even enlightening sight.
And in the middle of everything, I was there, standing in my Avatar form, somehow.
“So you’ve accepted, that’s a relief.”
The voice of an old man echoed everywhere all at once. I looked down, to the left and right, until I glanced up.
And I saw him.
He was enormous! Titanic, even.
A grandpa with a long white beard, wrinkles, eyes lacking irises, and white clothes.
He was sitting in the cosmos itself, and surrounding him, there were several other figures.
While he seemed like the embodiment of Light, the others resembled the embodiment of other elements.
True titans like I had never seen before.
One represented Fire, another Earth, there was one completely made of Water, of Winds… and so on, until I landed into a familiar face, Gaia, sitting at the side of a lady clad in darkness and stars.
Is that Nyx? It must be! She’s Rita’s patron.
“I… Huh? Are you-”
“Welcome to the council of Gods, Planta.” The God whose standing seemed the highest amongst the others, which I believed was the God of Creation interrupted me, welcoming me.
Somehow, that annoyed me a little bit. He looked like he was in a hurry, however.
“Your stay here will be merely momentary, we do not agree with giving you more favors.”
“We won’t become your personal council either, we are already very tired with all the job we have by maintaining the Server Active.”
“Oh, and you’re really cute.”
The Gods began talking one after the other, some seemed colder than others, but the Goddess of Water praised me and called me cute…
“T-Thanks? Err, so what do you need to talk about first?” I wondered, without wanting to jump into questioning them when they seemed so busy already.
“She doesn’t seem afraid of us?”
“Indeed, she’s quite strong willed, despite her weak demeanor.”
“Interesting, a mortal would usually become paralyzed by seeing us.”
“Well, I’ve interacted with you guys before, even if not directly…” I sighed.
“I understand that well.” The God of Creation nodded. “Now, let’s begin. Planta, we have called you here to give you a request. Amongst the many Players, only you and your close friends are aware that this World… is not a Game.”
“I… yeah, you’re not planning to tell anybody, don’t you?” I sighed, containing my urge to question him why even disguise this world as a game and bring so many people here.
“No, we cannot disclose this information with others.” He sighed. “We have even considered deleting your own memories from your consciousness. But after many conversations, we’ve decided to trust you, as you’ve trusted us already.”
They can delete my own memories?! Is it through my soul or something? Yikes…
“I… Thank you for trusting me.” I said with a smile.
“However, this trust also comes with special tasks we might sometimes ask you. As you know, the incident with the Demon King of Miasma… was not planned. He sneakily managed to ignore the System’s rules and limitations and was able to even breach into the other world, Earth.” The God of Creation said. “Thanks to your aid and that of the many other Players, he was defeated…”
“Yeah… That was an intense fight, can’t believe it happened just yesterday.” I sighed.
“Nonetheless, things are not over.” The God of Creation said.
“It is… not over?” I asked, feeling slightly worried about what he would tell me from now on…
I swallowed a bit of saliva, readying myself for the truth.
“Your world… is in a terrible crisis.”
