Adrian used the Summon skill to test it out since Sirius disappeared right in front of him after he used the Seal skill on him.

“Summon Sirius” Adrian chanted.

A magic circle of white outer rings with some black glyphs appeared in front of him and from the center Sirius emerged.

“Awesome” Adrian said in a high pitch voice. He thanked Gauis and left.

As Adrian and Sirius was walking from the pet shop, he remembered a special NPC. This NPC was very odd since this NPC asks a player for food and drinks and in exchange she will provide you with either a health or mana potion. If you give her a meal she gives you one small HP potion. If you give her a beverage she gives you one small MP potion. Although she only gives 1 per character. So he headed to the supposed location of the NPC.

“Another potion wouldn’t hurt” Adrian thought.

As he headed there, he remembered that there should be an adventure starter kit that is given for each player. “I have not opened mine yet” He thought. He opened his inventory and selected the starter kit.

Ding!

Would you like to open the Adventure Starter Kit? Y/N

He selected “Yes”.

Received: Small HP potions x 10, Small MP potion x 10, Bread x 10, Bottled Water x 10

“Small potions restore 25% of missing HP/MP. Greater potions restore 50%, Large restores 75% and 100 for Complete potions which is basically nonexistent for casual players since it is difficult to drop and even more to produce.” Adrian remembered.

Adrian was deep in thought when Sirius started barking at a corner in the street which awakened him from his deep thought. Before he knew it, they were already in front of the NPC he was trying to find.

“My o my what an energetic pup” the mysterious old woman muttered with a hint of amazement.

“I am sorry Ma’am, he is not really like this with other people.” Adrian replied hastily while picking up Sirius.

“No worries, I think your pet is cute. Although having a pet in this town is rare. The name is Lucretia by the way young lad” Lucretia said as she also introduced herself.

“Oh! he is not a pet. He is my soulbound partner” Adrian said.

“Interesting!” Lucretia muttered with slight curiosity in her eyes without Adrian noticing.

“So young man, what is your name?” Lucretia asked.

“My name is Equinox, Ma’am” Adrian answered.

“Do you believe in fate, young man?” Lucretia asked.

Adrian was astounded by this interaction since this was not mentioned in the forums so he did not know how to answer. Instead, it was the old woman who initiated the conversation once more.

“Since I believe young man that our meeting is bound by fate, I shall gift this you” Lucretia said while handing a necklace to Adrian.

Ding!

You obtained the Amulet of Chaos!

As soon as the notification sounded, blackish smoke swirled in Adrian’s vicinity blinding him and Sirius. When the smoke vanished so did the old woman. This event dumbfounded Adrian for he did not know what just happened.

“I just wanted an extra potion” Adrian thought while staring blankly at the area ahead.

At a certain high rise building in a metropolitan area, people facing holographic screens can be seen working. A notification appeared on one of the screens indicating that something has happened.

“Sir, it seems AI 626 has given the item” a person wearing a futuristic visor said.

“So finally, a year since it was coded into the game and someone finally triggered Protocol Deva” the man with a dignified aura said.
