Once again the mission progression was updated and the bell signaled the end of the school periods. I asked the Library manager whether would there be any problems if I stayed here even after the last school period and he nodded while saying” Nobody ever frequents this library, So I would not tell the 1st person in centuries who came inside this library to leave and there is nothing to worry, I know the Dean of the Academy. You can stay here till it's bedtime.” I nodded with an appreciative smile.
I once again started a search for a history book of the continents. I finally found a rather worn-out book titled “H st y of t e Humans.” It was the only worn-out book on the whole shelf which was surprising and it was also slightly burnt but the inside appeared to look as if it was not touched by time. The library manager looked at my face with surprise and shock and said “All the books are protected by magic enchantments which do not damage the inner contents of any book here. It’s surprising to see worn-out books like that in this library but it must have come in that state. The surprising thing is the books written here are from several centuries ago” I was surprised to know that there was also something called magic enchantment and the book was so old. I asked him whether there were any books on forging, alchemist, and magic enchanting. He looked surprised but brought 3 books while saying that “People normally do not pay much attention to these crafts although they might be useless at 1st once you get adapted to the art you can make miraculous items which can greatly enhance your strength.”
I nodded and took the books from him and then started reading the book on the continent of the Humans but what was surprising to hear was that there was no patron god for this continent. After the other gods and goddesses had separated 9 continents from the gigantic island, what remained of the gigantic island is now the Human continents and also the smallest continent in The GATE. What was even more surprising is that humans were not created by a God or a Goddess but rather had evolved from apes to the current Humans that are now found on every continent in The GATE. They had evolved from prey to predators and even 2 of XXX rank Tyrants had come from the humans which was quite surprising knowledge Augustus was one of the XXX rank Tyrants found in the Dragonic Continent but he too was a human.
Augustus’s powers were even rumored to rival the god’s power and according to the hidden secrets I had found from the NPC Richard’s memory, He was making a secret technique that would allow him to surpass the power of the gods. He must have been a genius to develop such a technique.
[Ding… A mission has been issued]
I felt a strange feeling when I heard the familiar voice after thinking about the technique made by Augustus.
[Mission:- Uncover the secret regarding the gods by reading the book titled “The History of the Gods”]
[Reward(Special):- Completed Technique of Augustus]
[Punishment:- You would not be able to log out from The GATE]
[Severe Punishment:- You would not be able to log out from The GATE(Permanent)/ possible Death???]
[Severe Punishment Condition:- Meeting Zeus]
[Method to remove the punishment and get the reward after failing the mission is to finish the mission]
[Mission Time Limit:- Meeting A God/Goddess]
The reward was too generous since even Augustus could not complete his technique while the punishment and the new Special Punishment were too harsh. It even specified how to complete the mission or else I would not know where to start. The most surprising thing was that the mission time limit did not have a numerical value but rather a specific event. This meant that the deadline could happen or never happen but the emotion of not knowing your deadline was too painful for my soul. I better start searching for this book but let me finish the story first.
The story continued with that The unknown God of Games started to like the tendency of the humans to not give up which reminded him about his struggles to reach his position. With the support of The God of Games, they were not faced with any major hurdles or interferences by the other gods and races. The surprising thing was the name of the god of games was not specified. Due to the support of The God of Games, humans started to become drawn to the side of entertainment and started making some entertaining games, toys, cartoons, and movies to such an extent that almost 99% of this planet started importing these stuff from the Human Continent.
The book ended so suddenly with the sudden popularity of the products of the human continent. Well, Kronos would be showing my progression now.
[Ding… Updating mission Progression]
[Mission: - Get to know the complete history of The GATE]
[Mission Progress: - 30%]
Finally, the mission progress was a nice round no which gave me a satisfying feeling for me. I should probably start searching for the book. It might be in this library, So I asked
the library manager” Have you seen the book “The History of the Gods” anywhere.” He looked surprised to hear of the name but said “Although I have seen the phrase “The History of” a lot I have not heard of a name called “The History of the Gods.” So sorry but although we have a lot of books here, the rest of the books not found here would be in the royal library, if not it would be in another continent! But you would not be able to get permission to get out of the academy much less the royal library.”I nodded and headed to the Dean’s office and knocked at the door.
He said “Come in” and obediently entered the room. The Dean seemed surprised to see me before smiling at me and saying “Richard Tiamat, I presume. You look just like your father.” It seemed The Dean knew my real identity. I asked him “So you know my father.” He nodded and said, “you do not seem to be surprised for me to know your full name.” I nodded and declared “I knew that somebody with power must know my real identity and you seem to be the only person with real power here.” The Dean looked surprised but asked “So why did you come here? There must be something you want from me to come here.”I nodded and asked the dean “Can I have permission to go out of the school for work.” The Dean seemed surprised but nodded to give his consent while saying “I will inform the guards to give you free access to enter and exit at your own will.” I nodded and further asked him “Have you heard of the book or read the book “History of the Gods.” You must have seen a lot of books in your life.”The
My father seemed to recognize me even with my disguise and seemed puzzled and surprised to see me. I told him the reason why I was not in the academy. He seemed puzzled to see me come to the palace for a book! But when I asked him to permit me to enter the ruined library of legends, his face completely change and he asked me “Who told you about the existence of the ruined library of legends.” I replied that the Dean was the person who informed me of that library. He nodded and said, “I will allow you to enter since you are the crown prince but you can only enter the library if you cannot find that book in our royal library.” I nodded and proceeded towards the royal library.After I started to thoroughly search the library, I found some interesting books on various sectors. I put them in my inventory.[It’s Kronos’s inventory, Host]Okay, Okay it’s Kronos’s inventory, Happy now Kronos. Kronos went silent after I thought of the inventory as something that belonged to Kronos.A few minut
The Owl started to speak with a strong voice that seemed to remember him of somebody “You look so much like Augustus. You must be the new king since you look so much like him and normally only the king and his trusted confidants are allowed inside.” I did not know that I looked so much like my ancestor/ more specifically this NPC’s ancestor. It seemed to have mistaken me to be king, So I shook my head and said “I am the crown Prince Richard Tiamat who has come here in search of a book that might be in your possession somewhere in this library.”The Owl seemed surprised to see a prince allowed to enter the library by the king. The Owl said “My name is Twinkle and I am one of the few pets of Augustus, I am one of a long extinct sub-race with the Spirit Race and my sub-race which should be extinct is the ‘Primordial Spirit Owl.’ I sense that you too are a primordial being born to 2 dragons. Which is indeed impossible but miracles do happen once every ∞ Year. So what book exactly are you

According to my calculations, I should read at least 3 books a day plus extra 10 books to read 100 books but I think I have already read 10 books. The problem is whether It would be counted by Kronos. While I was contemplating the mission I had received, Twilight got the book and said to me while handing book to me “Here is the book you were searching for. You are full of surprises Richard. Not even a normal Primordial Being can withstand this little fellow’s aura but you were able to stand straight. You even know the

A great amount of information will enter your brain which might result in you losing your conscience for several days)][Yes or No][You could also absorb this information later]This was the first time that Kronos gave me a warning regarding the reward, so I must pay heed to its warning. Since I have another mission that must be completed by me in a month, I must complete it before absorbing this technique. I asked Twilight “Can you give me 90 good books in the library? It would be best if you could also give me books with names that start with ‘The History of.’” Twilight was surprised by this strange request but she still did what she was requested to do. Twilight said some more words in the Spirit Language which was translated to come here followed by various book names. After a few minutes had passed exactly 90 books were laid down neatly on the floor, they emitted various a
I looked at the time of the watch I was wearing and noticed that I could make it in time to attend the last class that would be done by Kakashi Sensei. I ran as fast as possible with the help of wind magic that I had learned from Ms. Arabelle who was teaching us Wind Magic. Due to the speed at which I was traveling, I could not stop in time to prevent bumping into Kakashi Sensei who was about to enter the class.Kakashi Sensei was quite surprised to be bumped by somebody. He was also even more surprised to see that it was me who had bumped into him. He asked me “Why were you not present in the morning when I called your name, Richard.” I showed him the dean’s note, after which he sighed and said “Come in, Richard.” I nodded and followed him inside the class; the students seemed surprised to see me. Jack asked me “I thought something happened to you or your family since you did not attend the class. I was really worried you know.” So that’s why everybody was surprised to see me today.
After deciding the monster that I would be fighting, I focused on creating the strongest Magic we were taught “Fire Tornado”. It was a 3rd rank Spell but with the help of the Pure Magic Affinity I have, its strength was increased to a 4th Rank Spell which I call “Pure Fire Tornado”.By the way, the ranks signify the level of the stats. An example of this means to use a Rank 1 spell a person should have 100 Mana and 100 Int while to use a Rank 3 Spell-like Fire Tornado a person should have 300 Mana and 300 Int but my spell had the power of a Rank 4 spell while it required the stats needed for a Rank 3 Spell. Since I had 7000 Mana and Int, I should theoretically be able to use Rank 70 Magic but according to the NPC Richard’s Memory, the highest Rank spell is 10. This Rank 10 Spell is a one of kind Magic that was developed by a Sage( who didn’t have the Sage job but was called a Sage due to his strength and knowledge ) and had gathered dust in the treasury of some country since nobody
Year 90XXThe sudden appearance of the never seen phenomenon called ‘Mana’ transformed ordinary people into Supernatural beings that could do impossible things such as, create something from nothing, read minds, etc, and also resulted in the creation of things that could increase their power. This later became famously known as cultivation. In the Golden Era of cultivation, something unexpected happened; it was the popularity of a brand new VRMMO Game “The Gate”A Game that became famous in a world of magic and cultivation.Something nobody could predict had happenedThis Game got the investment and support of the Hidden Big tycoons worldwide. The 1st successful Game in which Game Currency could be converted to Real Money and vice versa.This Game resulted in nobodies becoming millionaires in one night! 5 years after it started a player came to the world and turned the world upside down. The Player’s name was “The Legendary Ark“ whose identity was unknown. His gaming skills were top
