Guardian Of The World

Chapter 2 - Hidden Class: Guardian of the World, 10th seat

After finish taking my medicine, I went back to the game.

The last area I left was the cave which the entrance/exit had been turned into a wall.

I investigated the area for a few minutes.

It was nothing but an good old cave that seems to be standing untouched for years.

The only peculiar thing was the cracks on the floor that looks like it was trying to give a clue or message.

It was a bit mossy and I couldn't tell what it was trying to say. Without a doubt, I cleared all the moss on the ground and I was greeted with a window notification.

You are the first player to discover the 3rd seated guardian of the world's shrine.

+1000 World Fame

+100 to all status

- There will be no restrictions of experience increase every level for a day.

- 20% more status points receive in each level for a day.

"..!" I couldn't help but be in shock after reading the notification. I wondered why would the system be so generous to give me such bountiful rewards.

I locked my gaze to the middle of the cracks formed on the ground and I could see a handprint carved on the ground.

'What is that?' I approach the hand mark and out of curiosity, I placed my right hand in the mark.

Shhiiingg! After pressing my hand on the hand mark. The pattern on the ground emits a blue light for a moment and disappeared.

"What was that?" I looked around my surrounding and I couldn't tell if something had changed.

Dugeudugeudugeud!

The cave began to shake. The ground in front of me rose up.

After the shaking stop, the ground that rose up became a miniature pillar.

I slowly walked towards the pillar and above it. I could see a rusty key embedded on it.

Chhik!

A cracking sound echoed after I removed the rusty key from the pillar.

"A key? Identify!" I used my appraisal skill to find information on the key.

Ancient Key

A key crafted a long time ago and is used to open a specific hole.

Durable: 4/10

That was all the information given.

I knew there is something special on the key so I looked at the outline of the key.

It had a normal appearance of a medieval key and the only special thing about it was the patterns engraved on each side.

It was a bit dusty so I cleaned it with a cloth and what surprise me was after looking closely to the patterns, it was similar to those of the cracks on the floor.

I pointed the key to the cracks encircling the ground.

In the middle, a thin beam of blue light emitted in the middle of the circled cracks while the carvings on the key were also glowing the same color as the light on the ground.

I slowly approach the light and where the hand mark on the ground now had a hole in it.

The light was getting brighter the nearer I put the key to the hole.

It seems that the beaming light on the ground was the key hole and when the key was completely placed inside the hole, the cracks circling the ground had began to glow again but now it was more bright.

Earthquake began to occur and the cracks had moved forming a chain reaction.

The stalactites above the cave continuously fell while the walls beside it began to tremble and just a moment, the walls would all crumble to debris.

The wall in front of the miniature pillar crumbled to pieces revealing a glass container inside is what seems to be a mannequin wearing two long cases, shaped in a sheath form but thicker while an arrowhead could be seen being connected to the hole.

Also, each cases held beside them attaching a sword encased on a scabbard.

Patterns similar to the Ancient keys pattern were carved not only in the case but also in the scabbard and the sword's handle.

Below the mannequin, a note was placed there.

Ting!

I opened the glass wardrobe and picked up the note.

The words in the note were the patterns on the floor and on the key so it was impossible for me to read but then the words glowed in light blue changing into words that I could read.

The text change into plain English .

Karkavos' Last Testament

For thousands of century, we the 10 guardians of the world have defended the earth from calamities.

I was on the 7th seat before, until a great war happened.

A rift opened in the sky and the great demons of hell rode dragons while undeads fell from the sky. All beings classified where at least boss-level monsters and the quantity was over tens of millions.

The war was considered a God threat.

Coincidentally, the war happened on the area I was currently guarding so I had to defend it.

Before my brethren, the other guardians got the news and tried to rush and help, I had solely defended it and achieved a great feat.

Our forefathers who were watching from above saw this amazing merit had promoted me from 7th seat to 3rd seat.

This achievement became an object of jealousy to my brothers from the 5th to 10th seat but the one who really got furious was the ex-3rd seated guardian, Dragos.

He and the rest of the guardians except for the 1st and 2nd seat made a plan to crumble me to ground, degrading the last of my atom however, our forefathers knew that this would happened and they didn't like it.

If I were to rebuke the other guardians. We the guardians whom who defend against calamity would just become the calamity itself.

So I had to sacrifice myself for the sake of others.

But since there is no one in the 10th seat, you who is reading this will become my predecessor and do everything to go up until the 1st seat.

My forefathers had knew this fact and supported my decision.

The path you will be leading is a dangerous one and I know that you won't let me down.

Dangerous people will try and trample you so be prepared.

"Eh?" I stared at the window panel blankly. Everything happened so fast that I couldn't believe what was happening.

I shake my head off an closely read the notification again.

But now I had understood everything and went enrage.

"Nooooo!!!!!" The first scream of despair that i had made in 3 years. This was the only time that tears fell down my eyes, not by grievance or depression but by a measly game.

I had effortly use my time to slay monsters and acquire experience and quickly level up.

I didn't even care about quest that gives bountiful rewards if it didn't connect to raising my experience.

Everyday, I solely focus on slowly raising my level but all of it have just disappeared in a pop like a bubble.

"My years of hard work sniff has all been vain." I knelt on the ground and I couldn't help but cry.

Ding!

Countless of window panels covered my view. I didn't understand what was happening until I saw the projectile-like weapon got automatically attached to my waist.

"What the hell is this!" I tried to unequipped the weapon but it doesn't even budge.

I opened the window panel of the weapon and tried to use the system procedure but I was only greeted by window alerts.

WEAPON CANNOT BE UNEQUIPPED!

WEAPON CANNOT BE

UNEQUIPPED!

I read the weapon's information but I couldn't believe what I read.

"Yo what the f.u.c.k!" I read the rest of the informations and this was what I conclude.

"Sigh, its okay...inhale heavily breathes exhale breathes out The good news is that I have received countless beneficial buffs and new skills, but the bad news is that not only my Level went back to 1, I will never be able o use another weapon except for this!" I drew both the swords from their scabbard and waved it.

"Hmmmm....its lighter than my previous sword no, it very light!" I swung it a few times and checked its external details.

Its form was a silvery white sword and the handle when gripped felt like he was connected to the sword.

The hilt was different, there was a square shaped button attached to it that seems like it could be pressed.

"Whats this?" I looked at the button and out of curiosity, I pressed it.

Hooot!

The arrow thingy on the sheath-like case on my right side flew at a very fast rate connecting to a black thin string from the case.

It stuck to the cave's wall.

"What the.... fuuuuuuuuuccckkk!!". I got carried by the momentum when the string tried to return to its case. I flew towards the wall and my slammed over the wall.

I fell down the ground and made a slight groan.

"Ugh...what?" I checked my HP bar and it seems that the indicator for damage effect didn't show up.

"That should at least deal a bit of damage but why am I alright?"

I checked my player status and was surprise to what I saw.
