The figure gave a short chuckle that contained the innocence of a child, but Adryan still maintained his bow.
The figure stopped giggling at this and just got up and took a few steps out of the darkness.
He was a boy of no more than 14 years old, he had black eyes and beautiful blonde hair.
"You're curious," 'He' said with a chuckle and Adryan stopped bowing and looked into the boy's black eyes.
"It's an honor coming from you, Your Excellency," Adryan said calmly.
"May I know the reason why you contacted me?" asked Adryan directly and the boy kept his innocent smile.
"Fate in you is very strange"but the boy ignored the question completly.
At the information, Adryan raised an eyebrow and the boy added.
"Even though I'm standing in front of you, I can't detect your destiny, it's as if it doesn't exist" this revelation left Adryan somewhat uncomfortable, who waited for the boy to speak again.
"You already know who I am so you know what my words mean" the boy said seriously and Adryan sighed lightly to calm down.
"Your Excellency..." the boy raised 'His' hand and shook 'His' finger meaning no.
"Now I'm just a kid and I have to be treated like a kid, call me Will" he said with a small smile as he lowered his finger and the redhead just nodded.
"Will, why are you telling me this? What is the price of this information?" Adryan knew very well how this world worked, everything that fate delivered already had a price that would be paid.
Will Auceptin being Sequence 1 of the Wheel of Fortune pathway knew this better than almost anyone and he wouldn't tell him anything without a good and solid reason.
And Will just gave another innocent giggle as he placed his hands behind his back.
"I could say it's my early investment in you"
Raising a suspicious eyebrow, Adryan spoke.
"What could I a little sequence 7 have that the president of the Life School of Thought wants to invest in me?"
Will only responded with another innocent smile refusing to say anything and Adryan could only bite his tongue in frustration.
'Roselle again I agree with you, I want to hit a snake'
Will's innocent smile disappeared and he looked at Adryan with a cold stare.
"Why do I feel like you want to hit me?" the voice was cold sending a chill up Adryan's spine who responded with a smirk.
"You can see destiny so you tell me"
"..." Will's cold expression had been replaced by one of disbelief making Adryan's smirk grow even more.
"ha ha ha....HAHAHAHAHA" Will recovered quickly and let out another innocent laught only this time it was stronger and according to Adryan more natural?
"I won't regret my decision to invest in you" Will said amused and Adryan just nodded.
"Will, is that all you see in me?"
Will shook his head as he looked into Adryan's red eyes.
"You are surrounded by an aura of disasters, now it may not be very strong but over time you will leave catastrophes where you pass"
Adryan nodded at this revelation, he already had an idea that this was the case if he took Klein who was surrounded by the gray mist as an example.
"I should be able to control that when I become a demigod" Adryan answered confidently but
Will just shook his head again, greatly surprising the redhead.
"That aura of disasters is not something that should be contained or controlled, if you were to do that, the only thing you would do would be to become a time bomb and cause a much greater calamity" Will answered calmly.
'The aura of the City of Calamities must not be contained?' the redhead thought as he raised his hand to his head.
"So what am I supposed to do?" Will held up a finger and spoke seriously.
"Your only option is to advance to sequence 2, only by being an angel will you be able to deal with that aura but you will not be able to contain it, the only thing you can do is decrease the damage you can do"
'Shit, so I'll have a huge target on my back? When the soup is released from the pot they'll have no problem finding me,' Adryan thought heavily.
"Then there is no way to hide this aura?"
Will raised a blond eyebrow and answered.
"Isn't that what you've been doing all this time?"
This information froze Adryan who just looked at Will as if he had grown another head making the boy feel offended.
"That aura of disaster should have attracted other annoying creatures a long time ago but it seems to be hidden" Will said as he walked around Adryan who had a ridiculous look on his face.
'Hidden? Has the Goddess already given me a hand?' thought the redhead in shock and Will spoke again.
"The only reason I can see that aura of disaster is because I'm standing in front of you and I'm trying really hard to see it because if it wasn't for that I wouldn't even know it's there."
Will even let out another laugh as he stood in front of Adryan again.
"In fact, I originally contacted you because of the fact that your destiny didn't exist. I hadn't even noticed that aura of disasters until you were in front of me and I could detect it."
Suddenly Will's smile disappeared and he just stared into the dark void before sighing heavily.
"It seems that our meeting has to end, there is someone annoying nearby"
"Wait Will!!" Adryan said trying to touch the boy but the space around him broke like glass and the redhead began to fall.
"I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS YOU SNAKE" Adryan yelled as he fell but Will's voice rang in his ears for one last time.
"If you ever want to talk just write something on the origami, I'll also be sending you works from dreams so make sure you nap."
Hearing Will's amused voice, Adryan just yelled one last thing to the space that was breaking up.
"FUCK YOU DWARF"
Just as he finished saying that, Adryan jerked awake in his bed.
He just now felt like the extra Provoker potion he had taken was completely digested...
Here is some new information regarding tomorrow's special.
5 chapters will be published on Saturday and the other 5 on Sunday.
These will be about various special things so I hope you're looking forward to it.
Finding himself back in his room, Adryan only put a hand to his face and scratched his eyes.
'The talk with Will was completely worth it' thought the redhead satisfied, who began to count the benefits of having talked to the snake.
'The most important one is undoubtedly the fact that the aura of disasters I'm expelling is hidden by something, is this the hand of the Goddess? But I never had any kind of contact with any sacred artifact related to 'Her'?'
Trying to think of how it was possible a possibility arose in Adryan's mind who could only grunt.
'Or is this done by the bastard who brought me here?
So that the Gods do not find me and I can grow strong for their resurrection?
But that doesn't explain how I haven't died or been corrupted by all the knowledge I have.....'
Sensing his spirituality that was warning him, Adryan stopped thinking about that topic and switched to another.
'The aura of the City of Calamities unlike the aura of the Sefira Castle must not be contained or controlled?
Now that I think about it, it makes a lot of sense, the City of Calamities has the authority of disasters and destruction, if I tried to contain that aura, the only thing I would do would be to cause a major disaster when I am no longer capable of doing so, just like Will said' while thinking that Adryan got up from his bed and leaving his room he went to the kitchen.
Opening a cabinet he took out a pot which was filled with milk and placed it on the grill and lit the fire with a match.
He still feel watched so he didn't plan to use his ability with fire yet....
While doing so he opened another cabinet and took out a cup of powdered coffee and an empty cup.
'Will said that only by becoming an angel would I be able to lessen the damage I caused,It should be because my connection to the City would be much deeper.....'
The redhead felt a sensation of Deja vu and the image of the Colosseum covered in fire came to his mind so vividly that he thought he was standing in front of it again and the ravings he heard that almost killed him would appear again.
*CRASH*
The empty cup he was holding slipped from his hand and fell to the floor breaking into pieces but thanks to this the image that Adryan saw of the Colosseum disappeared.
Out of habit he knelt down and started picking up the pieces of the broken cup while his face was pale,his hands trembled slightly and his breathing had become rapid and his pupils had shrunk.
'What the fuck was that?!!'
'Why the fuck did I think of that damn Colosseum now of all times?!!'
Just before he reached for another piece of the cup, Adryan's hand froze and his eyes widened.
'Angel.....Angel....I said that I would only go near that Colosseum again when I turned into an angel...'A feeling of emptiness covered Adryan...
'I will only be able to minimize the damage caused by the aura of the City of Calamities when I become an angel...' the tremor in his hands intensified and Adryan just lowered his hands to the ground as well as he lowered his head.
'Becoming an angel is directly connected to that Colosseum....'
'What the fuck is inside....'
Taking several deep breaths, Adryan picked up the pieces of the cup as quickly as he could and tossed them into the trash, then grabbing some rags he removed the pot of hot milk from the fire which he blew out.
Placing the pot on one side, the redhead took out another cup, his hands were still shaking...
Pouring the hot milk into the cup he grabbed the coffee powder and with a spoon he put 2 tablespoons into the cup and began to mix.
'The two things are certainly connected but isn't this a huge coincidence? This is already ridiculous,the paranoid would never write a script as exaggerated as this,is not like he can influence the City of Calamities.... Is my luck that bad?'
Looking at the milk and seeing that it took on the color the redhead was looking for, he grabbed the container where he kept the sugar and placed 4 tablespoons in the milk and began to mix again.
He had always been someone of sweet things, coffee would not be the exception...
'This can't be the work of anyone other than the bastard who brought me here, how else is this possible?' The redhead stopped mixing and grabbing the cup he picked it up but his hands were still shaking so he could just put the cup back on the table if he didn't want to make a mess.
Leaning against the table, Adryan could only take several breaths, then close his eyes and meditate to try to calm down.
He had managed to calm down a bit enough for him to at least grab the cup and drink some of the coffee which calmed him down a bit more.
Giving a weak sigh, Adryan sat down at the table and placed both arms on the table and held his forehead with his hands.
'Will I have no choice but to explore that place as soon as I become an angel?'
'At least that's still a long way off and I can prepare myself for whatever's inside…' Taking a big sip of the coffee, Adryan looked down at the half-filled cup.
'I just hope I'm ready when the time comes.....'
With that thought, the redhead drank the last of his coffee.
'Provoker has been completely digested, now only Hunter and Pyromaniac remain....'
