2024-10-29 19:42:56‘ Zion Holyhammer ! Are you willing to become guardian of Cerise Vladina Drakul ? “ A holy voice with infinite echo asked inside Zion’s head. He seems to be standing in the sky with nothing underneath his feet. No matter which direction he looked, there are only sky and clouds.
“ y..yes. “ Zion answered doubtfully.
Isn’t Cerise’s last name Mayflower ? isn’t his name Zion Sheng ? What's happening here ?
At the same time, Cerise heard another voice in her head. She stood in the center of a grand amphitheater, with pillars extending so high up they vanished into darkness. There’s only darkness and never ending pillars in any direction she could see.
‘ Cerise Vladina Drakul ! Are you willing to cherish and support Zion HolyHammer ? ‘
“ yes. “ Cerise answered with a frown.
Then, all of a sudden, they were staring at their hands in the bowl, where the connected silver rings had dissolved. The magic formed two beautiful rings on their hands.
Zion’s is an intricate scaled ring that resembles an ouroboros. Cerise’s is a flat ring with perfect sheen which shone silver, gold and blue.
Their eyes met, they both decided to postpone this talk for later.
[ There are Sheng family guards waiting at your house. ]
The message appeared in front of him.
It seems Omniscience he has is a passive rather than an active skill. All the same, Zion appreciated the warning.
“ Do you have a place to crash for the night ? “ Zion asked Cerise.
Cerise shook her head.
Zion removed his belt, and opened the buttons of his pants. He held the zipper, ready to pull down his pants.
“ Hey ! What are you doing ! This is a public place ! “ Cerise exclaimed, turning away.
“ Ha ! I knew this would save me one day, “ he exclaimed.
Cerise turned back to him ready to slap his teeth out, but stopped in shock when she looked at the picture in front of her.
Zion’s pants were all alright, and he was exclaiming holding a roll of cash in a small zip lock bag, packed tightly enough that no fluids will go in there. Cerise shuddered to think where that bag might have been if Zion had to drop his pants to retrieve this bag.
The moment he opened the bag, she set fire to it.
“ Do not touch me with those hands ! “ She hissed at him as she looked at him.
Zion only looked bashful.
Thankfully, there were taps out in the garden, they washed both his hands and the wrapping before getting the cash out.
“ Where to ? “ The driver asked.
Cerise thought for a moment, then retrieved a coupon from her bag.
“ Will this be useful to you ? “ She asked, showing a coupon.
[ Thousand year cultivation pod coupon. ]
[ A coupon which lets you sleep in a thousand year pod in Red Temple. This is a perfect chance to skip babysitting for a thousand years for your dragonling, fairy egg or even a rebellious elfkin. Lock up those rebellious tots inside the pod, and retrieve an obedient child from the pod. ]
The coupon had that explanation on the back. Zion suddenly had information explode inside his head. Fairy eggs have to be incubated for a thousand years. Since he skipped that process, he has not grown the necessary stats that are owned by a fairy. So, if he sleeps for a thousand years, all these anomalies inside his body will settle.
“ Yes. '' Zion answered succinctly.
“ Then I will lend it to you. Repay in seven years. “ Cerise asked him.
“ Okay. “ Zion took the coupon.
“ To the red temple, mister. “ he answered the driver.
The taxi dropped them off at the red temple.
It was a grandiose temple that looked like a mansion, with its dull red walls, and golden french windows.
A monk in eastern attire arrived from inside.
“ Donor ! How may I help you ? “ he asked politely.
Zion took out his thousand year forge ticket.
“ Donor ! Do you have an attendant with you ? “ the monk asked.
Cerise moved forward.
“ Please follow me. “ he said.
The main hall is full of pods in white shape.
The insides are glass walls, they are full of blue pods.
Eventually, the monk led him to a room, with thicker glass walls, and a purple pod.
“ Remove all your clothes and jewelry. Then lie inside the pod. Once you close the pod door, tear the ticket inside. “ the monk said.
Cerise had a small room with an uncomfortable looking cot where she could wait.
They nodded to each other, Cerise went to the waiting room.
Zion was able to remove everything save for the wedding ring.
He entered the pod.
Time passed.
Zion opened his eyes all of a sudden. Did tearing the ticket not work ?
[ Status ]
He called out. In the status displayed, it has completely changed.
[ Name : Zion Holyhammer ]
[ Title : First Fairy on earth. ]
[ Type : Guardian ]
[ Physique : 5 ]
[ Mana : 100 ]
[ Skill : Omniscience ]
[ Do you wish to take up the role of guardian of earth ? ]
( yes ) ( no )
“ Do I have to save humanity or something if I become guardian of earth ? “ Zion asked.
[ no. ]
“ Do I have any other duties ? “ Zion asked doubtfully.
[ no ]
“ Then are there any advantages to becoming guardian of earth at all ? “ Zion asked in surprise.
[ You can use knowledge of any being on earth as long as you are guardian of earth. ]
“ You mean to say no one will have any secrets from me ? “ Zion asked in surprise. That’s some power.
[ As long as they are beings of earth. ]
‘ Wait ! If I know all the secrets of the earth all the time, doesn’t that mean this is like a mind reading skill where I am hearing noise wherever I go ? ‘ Zion thought.
‘ That is just the recipe for going crazy and killing an entire planet ! What the ! are you indirectly inducing me to become demon king ? ‘ he thought.
“ Can I block this power ? “ he asked.
[ yes. ]
Zion chose yes after that.
‘ I want to see why Cerise Mayflower really wants to marry me ! ‘ Zion thought.
[ Peng Beljebub, a high level member of Silversword guild controls the initiation of newbies. He proposed to Cerise on the day before the graduation ceremony. He plans to force her to marry him by threatening her life. Cerise has an invalid younger brother, who is in the custody of the guild. By the legal rights, unless Cerise is a full fledged adult, she can not take over the custody of her brother. By the law of protection of inheritance, the guild member’s fortune will first belong to their family members, guild, then finally the government. If Cerise dies in the dungeon, the custody of the child will belong to the guild, but if Cerise’s husband is alive, he could take over mayflower inheritance for himself. ]
Zion did not expect him to be a simple evil warding charm.
What if this villain just kills him to continue the plan ? Zion wondered for a mere second, before he had an epiphany.
Zion was a Sheng. The shengs are called ‘ Sheg clan ‘ with all the respect in the world, but that did not change the reputation of their clan. They are a mafia at the core. He could be tossed around like a tennis ball inside the clan, but the same could not be okay for the outsiders.
A person kills him while he still bears the name of Sheng, and still wants to roam the Sicuate city, Zion could only say ‘ Dream on ‘.
Thus, the little villain who’s eyeing Cerise’s heiress status could only watch enviously.
‘ That’s some ingenious ness. As expected of ice queen Cerise. ‘ Zion snarked in his mind.
Even so, he let it go. Magical marriage of Vegas chapel is not for giggles. It’s a far more powerful bond than what words could describe. If that kind of magic did not detect any maliciousness from Cerise, moreover gave them a blessing, then it meant Cerise is sincere.
‘ Maybe love is a fool's dream, but peace is still achievable. ‘ Zion thought as he looked at her sleeping peacefully on the cot.
He woke her up.
They went for breakfast in burger king, with an english biscuit and dungeon meat. The meat is as thick as a quarter pounder, while the biscuit is as thin as a wafer.
“ Why didn’t you tell me about Beljebub ? “ Zion asked.
Cerise was shocked.
“ hh.. How ? “ She asked in shock.
“ I have my ways. “ Zion answered mysteriously.
“ With your skills, there’s nothing you can do. “ She answered truthfully.
“ He does not seem to be a good man. Once he knows it’s legally impossible, he will threaten you with your younger brother. After all, he seems to be the supervisor for the school hostel for silver sword guild. “ Zion opined.
“ I .. I plan to apply for early inheritance, and take out the custody of my brother. “ Cerise answered.
That probably will not work.
Cerise has thought as long as she has a legal guardian outside the guild's influence, she could avoid being under their control. However, Zion knew better. After all, even if in exile, he is the child grown in a criminal organization. This entire business with Beljebub has ‘ Modus Operandi ‘ Written all over it.
Solving it as a single case is not possible at all.

Zion looked at Cerise in shock. Just how much does she hate her guild ? In this world of hunters, a guild is a second home. The guilds, especially larger ones, will take care of you from birth to death. They have an affiliated hospital where all the players and their families get treated. They have child care facilities that can take care of newborns from the time they are born to the nursery, some even have schools leading up to high school. After all, when a ‘player’ parent enters the dungeon, the guild will have custody of their child. The guild makes decisions on whether to go for surgery or treat moderately in case of injury. The guild will receive inheritance of the child if a specific will is not made. Yes, it calls for a lot of injustices, but most guilds take this part of their job extremely seriously. Because once a problem occurs in any of these services, a mass exodus of players happens. It could literally make or break a guild’s future. As such, the guilds whic

After coming out of the marriage bureau, Zion headed straight to the nearby halloween store. This shop does not sell fake props, but real props like spider legs, frog eyeballs, rat tails, slimy slugs and all sorts of curiosities, mixed with cheap dollar store like “ do it yourself “ items, which are mostly used by children to set up pranks, and by low level hunters to set up traps in the wilderness. “ Zion, actually, we need to goto equipment return station. “ Cerise called him as he entered the store. All the same, she followed him. “ Are you talking about the evidence camera borrowed from the city office for filming our session in the chapel ? “ Zion asked. “ Yes. The deadline is like twelve noon, but I still have to go to the orientation. We need to go by ten. “ Cerise answered. “ How many of those cams do you have ? “ Zion asked.

“ Oh, it seems the industry norm is to clear at least one dungeon on your own, then apply for a guild. “ Zion said into the camera, looking at the information. “ Are you not going to follow the norm ? “ The cameraman asked Zion. “ No. I don’t have time. I don’t think it makes a great difference in the guild’s opinion. So, I believe it’s better to act quickly now to submit my CV now rather than after almost all my friends are out doing the same thing. “ Zion opined. ‘ Ooooh ! Smart ! ‘ The camera man complimented Zion. The next guild even more strictly rejected him, just because he was a dungeon baby. So did the next guild, and the guild after.

[ OppaJJang : Oh ! the beauty attack ! ] [ OppaJJang has donated 20 dollars to the stream. ] Twelve Inches thanked her for the donation in his stream. Unfortunately, the beauty-loving girls or just any girls at all are not watching him at all. They were all focused on Zion's stream. “ I will establish a guild myself. I will accept all the dungeon babies in the world. They can all join my guild. “ Zion said, his voice full of passion. The first part was something he had decided before joining the stream. He thought the stream would make the best advertising space. However, after getting beaten up this badly just for one extra word on his awakening certificate, Zion wanted to do something to comfort himself, and all others who were in the same position as himself. The cameraman was too shocked to say anything. ‘ How does this guys’ brain circuit work is written all over his face. ‘ [ HunterJobHu
Omniscient CraftMaster The otherside
Cerise’s mother was one of the most powerful awakeners belonging to the silversword guild. Thus, her treatment by the guild had always been good. Two years ago, the guild general manager changed. Her mother started going on tower quests under the influence of the new GM. Unlike the dungeon clearing which is over within hours, tower Quests last longer. Conversely, they give out equally great rewards. As such, tower player's children are supposed to be treated with greater respect, but reality is rather opposite. Tower gives one treasure, kills ten. The survivors would be hated by all, despite the dead players receiving their share. As such, the survivor’s children will become pariah’s. The tower quest her mother had completed had especially high mortality. In a day, Cerise and her brother became anyone’s game. That was all acceptable, till their mother went missing in the tower. All of a sudden, they can not live in the quarters they have lived their entire lives, but had to live

They brought them back to the small pit he made at the entrance, pouring the basket in when it’s filled.“ Guys, I will be back in a few.

As he sat and watched Cerise, his frazzled mind slowly calmed down. It occurred to Zion perhaps staying in this hospital was not the best idea. Afterall, he had no idea how far and wide the corruption had spread. So, he picked up his phone. Only then did he realize the live broadcast was still on. It was going on when he was dealing with the killer, it was on even now. “ I am sorry, my dear viewers. I would have to stop the broadcast for today here. If you want to watch more of me, please do so on DDA’s live platform. “ Zion informed them, before turning off the live broadcast.

Zion ran straight for the stairs. He had no idea he could move this fast. He flies up the stairs instead of moving up the stairs. Had he not been in such a hurry, he would realize that his body is moving at a higher strength. His foot slipped as soon as he put it on the supersmooth tiles of the hospital walkway. Zion did not think of correcting his posture. Instead, he braced for impact on the wall facing him, then slid sideways, so that he could reach the room faster. He even lowered his legs to let the shoes glide smoothly. The nurses at the reception did not even notice a person passed by because he crossed over the place far too quickly. Zion braked himself using the groove of the door, and pushed in the door of the room. The vitals monitor which was slightly beating with a small tick flatlined right in front of Zion. He did not even think. He braced his legs, jumped straight for the assailant’s head. The man got hit straight in his temple with a knee kick. He fell down
