Chapter 66 - Logging Back In And Job Class Advancement
Tomorrow came and the update to the game has been finished. Adrian excitedly logged in back into the game after his morning routines which includes folding his bed,exercising,eating and then taking a bath. He placed himself comfortably into the game pod and contacted Marlon that he would log back into the game and Marlon replied that he would soon follow.

” Sheesh…This log-in screen never gets old.” Adrian said as his vision blacked and when it returned he was now in an area that was now a lush forest.
” It seems the whole area has been transformed. It used to be a swamp and now even the name of the dungeon is different.” Adrian uttered.
[Dungeon Name: Silent Forest]
Adrian was about to check out his newly acquired skill when a slew of system notifications flooded his eyes.
[Urgent Mini-Quest has been completed. Rewards will now be given as the dungeon has been completed.]
[All quests relating to the Silver Moores have been completed.]
[500% experience points earned. Due to your experience point multiplier, you received 1500% experience points.]
[Player Equinox has leveled up fifteen times.]
[ You have successfully completed the job advancement quest.]
[ Inheritance ceremony will now initiate.]
When Adrian saw the last notification, his vision became blurry and his body floated in mid-air. Smoke that was colored in streaks of white, violet and gray started getting absorbed into his crown and it started forming a blue flame in the hollow middle part of the crown while Adrian was teleported elsewhere.
The player base has just logged in when they heard yet another world message.
[ The champion of the end of times has succeeded in claiming the power of the first seal. Prepare for the beginning of the end.]
The player base reaction was something like ” Seriously are world messages that easy to trigger”. Meanwhile the guild leaders of the top guild all have one idea on what the world message meant and that was, ” The player who triggered the world message has succeeded in advancing to his first job class advancement hence the first seal.” By their speculation, the reason his job class gets broadcast means only one thing. His job class is a unique job class that is only available for one person and is probably relevant to the story of the game. They are familiar with this because one of the ‘monster players’ are known to as Eldritch is currently undergoing this class change quest since he had a run-in with other players during his class quest and he triggered a world message after beating those players that were in his way.
=======================
Meanwhile the player in question did not even hear the world message because he was in a different world per se.
[ You have been transferred to Limbo.]
[ Due to your Job Class, you have resisted the effects of Limbo in which only the souls of the dead could set foot on.]
Adrian was transported to a world where everything was in ruins. When you look up into the sky, you will only see dark clouds that is circling like a storm is brewing instead of a bright sun or a moon. He was then floated towards on what looks like a pyramid that was surrounded by an artificial lake with four pillars erected a few meters away from its four sides.
Adrian’s body was then floated inside the pyramid and what he saw raised the all the hair covering his body. There was a gate inside the pyramid that was five meters tall with two humanoids with jackal heads standing beside it. The gate was swirling with blue and white energy as if it was sucking the souls of the dead inside it. Adrian was being floated closer to the humanoids with jackal heads and he now could clearly see what they were wearing. The humanoids were adorned with armor that was made of pure gold. The jackal humanoid on the left was holding two swords in his hands while the one on the right was holding a spear.
The two then noticed Adrian floating towards them and the two could be seen to have a surprised look on their face but only for a split second before they returned to their stoic expression. When Adrian stopped floating before them, they clashed their weapons and the swirling energy of the gate disappeared and their voices were heard.
” The gate to the underworld will be closed temporarily” the left humanoid jackal said.
” Wandering souls of Limbo. You will be transported to other gatekeepers.” the right jackal humanoid said as he tapped the bottom of his spear on the ground and all the souls that were queued inside the pyramid suddenly became smoke that was swallowed by the swirling dark clouds in the sky.
” What brings you here wanderer?”, the left jackal humanoid said to Adrian.
” Can you not see, brother. He bears the the crown of souls.” the right jackal replied.
Adrian did not know what to do but his game avatar suddenly spouted words.
” Gatekeepers of the underworlds. Children of Abaddon. I, the current inheritor of the legacy of Havila, implore you to share your power with me.” Adrian said with a tone of respect as his avatar bowed while in mid-air.
The two jackal humanoids then straightened their posture and no longer had their playful tone. The two jackal humanoids the spoke in unison.
” In accordance with the pact the Children of Abaddon, the Anubises, has made with Havila. We forge a new pact with his successor. He would be our shepherd in the overworld and we would give him strength in exchange.” the two Anubises chanted with their voices reverberating to all parts of Limbo.
When the two Anubises finished speaking, multiple colored lights came crashing down towards the sky and started targeting Adrian to which he got nervous and closed his eyes. He thought it was an attack that was aimed towards him but he opened his eyes a few seconds later and sighed in relief that he did not get damaged. The lights raining down from the sky was not meant to damage Adrian but to feed the blue flame that was hovering in the middle of his crown. After the light show died down, a system notification appeared in front of Adrian.
[You have properly finished the ascension ritual.]
Adrian then checked his character sheet to properly confirm if he actually really had the job class advancement.

Adrian smiled and another notification appeared.
[Your job class skills will be given after returning to the overworld.]
The anubis on the right then spoke to Adrian.
” Speak your name, inheritor.”
” It is Equinox, Anubis sir.” Adrian answered in a panicked voice since he did not expect the question.
” In accordance to our pact. You, the new Soul Summoner, shall be the shepherd of lost souls in the overworld. You will be the one to lead them towards Limbo so that they could be judged by our father , the God of Death, Abaddon.” the two anubis said simultaneously.
Adrian then acquired a mission. He read the mission details and had a face that once could see that is full of questions.

Adrian was about to ask questions when he was suddenly cut off by the anubis in the right.
” Well then that is all, Equinox.” the right anubis said as he tapped his spear on the ground two times and Adrian was whisked away. .𝘤𝘰𝑚
” Wait… I haven’t even asked my question yettt….” Adrian protested as he became smoke and was swallowed by the swirling dark clouds.
When Adrian regained his vision, he was once again inside the dungeon Silent Forest. He stomped his feet in protest because he was not able to hear about the details of the quest the anubises given him. It was then a flood of notifications filled Adrian’s vision and sounds of dings that irritated his ears that he disabled the sound of notifications because of it. When the notifications stopped popping, he was about to check each notification but a log-in sound was heard behind him and Marlon’s avatar was seen and he spoke.
” So…what did I miss?” Marlon asked. 𝘳𝘦.𝒸𝑜𝘮
” Oh! Not much really” to which Adrian replied.
