I waited for Dolly to log back into the game. Hagane also logged out a few minutes after I log back in to take his dinner. Chase also logged out to do the same as Hagane. Since I am the only one that is currently available, I didn't proceed to do the quest.

Checking all the quest logs, I have plenty of story-related quests that are currently pending. I wanted to clear them all in one go but sometimes, these quests are hard to complete. Not only it doesn't give any marker to where you need to find the objective but it is recommended to keep on exploring all around the game's unlocked areas and interacting with monsters or NPC to trigger them. The questline sometimes gives clues that will allow you to narrow down where you need to look however, it is sometimes in cryptic wordings that will make you have a headache thinking what the quest really meant.

Out of all the quests that I have right now, one is not yet possible to complete which is the legacy quest of the ring that I received from the battle against Serbal. If this was restored, this will allow me to breathe underwater without drowning and will be useful for exploring underwater and the hostiles seas of Aquanious. Not only the quest specifies me to go to the Aquanious Continent which will be released 6 months after the Sandurk Region is released but it also needed me to make contact with the Aquanious Ruler.

As for the others, I needed to complete a certain objective that is unknown or I have to complete a prerequisite quest to access it. So out of all the quests that I can complete, this main quest, the quest that Almira handed to me, and the trace to find the Excalibur which is connected to this main quest since the spirit of the owner of Excalibur will appear during the demon invasion.

Since I am not sure of the main content of the quest, I decided to create multiple potions and scrolls. With multiple people in the team, two of who are underleveled, it will be a bit difficult if we get to face a very strong enemy. Hagane would be the first to die and even my skills will not be able to save him except if I revive him again.

To make sure that everyone in the team will be able to survive in case the enemies are too strong to handle on their current level, I made a few potions to use and a few scrolls containing defensive spells that will negate damage for one use.

"Master..."

The voice of Atlas rang in my head.

"What is it?"

"The child that you receive from the egg that you stole from Serbal has finally awakened. It is confused at his currently making a fuss around here and is trying to know what is going on."

"What is he doing right now?"

"He was currently fascinated to Leona. It looks like this is the first time he has seen a gryphon despite being a race with wings and specialize in flying."

"Bring him out. It would be more comfortable for him to get out of the summons ' area."

"Acknowledged."

In a few seconds, Atlas carried the young angel out of the summons' portal.

"Where are you sending me?!" the voice of the scared angel entered my ears for the first time.

"Don't worry, my master is not a scary person as long as you are not some rare creature or some treasure that is shiny enough that can yield gold when sold.

"The f*ck are you talking about, Atlas? I don't think I am like that."

"Sheesh, alright master if you insist but I will not change my views on you."

Damn, Atlas sees me as a greedy bastard. But I think there is partly a real part of those, I just deny it since I don't go crazy if I found something like that.

The kid went out from the portal and even though he was struggling to escape from Atlas who is currently holding his shirt, he can't overpower the size of Atlas and his grip unless he rips off his clothes which I doubt he will do so.

"Don't bother escaping. If you try escaping, I would simply recall you and you will return to the summons' area."

"You can do that Atlas?"

"Of course Master. Since I used a pseudo method to bring him in, I can control whether he can go out of the summons' area or not. If I needed to do it, I can recall him right here, right now even if you don't give the command."

"Wow, that is scary but that method is indeed good enough."

I approached the angel kid and he slowly backs away from me.

"Hehe, that's right, don't just dare to approach me as I approach you, you should get scared..."

"Master, your acting is so lame, make a more believable one instead," Atlas commented.

"Shush, Atlas. I am having fun here and you are ruining the fun."

"Wha... who are you... Aren't you human? Aren't humans extinct in this world already?!"

My ears perked up when he said that humans are extinct in this world. As someone who likes the lore in fantasy games and s, the lore of this world is pretty much expansive. Apparently, a few centuries ago after the great cataclysm that wrecked the whole world caused human existence to be wiped out from the whole world. It was believed by many beings who managed to survive the cataclysm due to how they disappeared after.

I still remember that there were a few elves who have written some books about the fall and rise of the human race after the cataclysm. It was believed at first that the humans have been erased from existence but after a few centuries, the humans appeared again and this time, they came back a lot more developed that allowed the restoration of the human race back in this world.

The other races thought that they are trying to imitate the legacy of the human race but it seems they did not and they were the legitimate human race. It was then revealed to the other races that humanity managed to survive in a hiding underground and kept themselves hidden from the eyes of other races.

It was also revealed that the dwarves helped the humans to restore their former glory after the war, allowing humanity to return to the face of the world with the other races.

So this kid seems to be during the time where all races besides the human race were roaming the face of the world after the great cataclysm. It seems Serbal took this kid during that time and keep him encased in the shell until the time I removed him out of his restraint.

"Times have changed kid. Humans are now back and they are not an extinct species. We are as tough as those random weeds and we refuse to just die. So I am sorry to disappoint but we are not yet dead."

The angel boy was startled by what I just revealed. It must have been a great shock for him if my assumption earlier was indeed correct.

"You are joking, right? Your species are already extinct. I doubt your species will be able to recover after you guys were killed from the cataclysm!"

"Master. I think this kid is yet to be convinced that the humans have returned to the surface after your species were thought to be extinct already."

"Yeah. He is quite stubborn. Please recall him again. He needed time to adapt to his current situation. If you can, you can also educate him a bit, Atlas."

"As you wish," Atlas said and the kid who just woke up was being sucked into the summons' area.

"Wait! Agh! What are you doing?! Let me go!"

He didn't get to fight back even if he keeps his black and white wings flapping to escape from the portal. It sucked him before he can get even a single reaction.

So this situation seems to be going to be a quest a bit later on if he learned the truth about this world.

A few moments later, Dolly logged back in and a bit of an interval later, Hagane and Chase also logged back in.

"Did something happen while we were eating dinner Bladeheart?" Dolly asked.

"Nope, there's nothing happening right now. However, since everyone is here, there is going to be something happening indeed."

"Are we going to proceed with the quest now?" Hagane was excited.

"Yes, we will now begin the journey to the elf folks and finish the quest. Our goal for today is to finish the main quest as soon as possible. We will also need to make sure our quest will be the ideal ending we needed to do. The ending of this quest will also determine the world, so let's do our best and achieve the best conclusion possible."
