Adrian logged back in the game and the first thing he did was look at Saena’s evolution requirements.
Saena Caladrius Evolution Requirements:
– Heal 100, 000 damage (Completed)
– Heal 50 sick people from their sickness (0/50)
– Level 50 (Completed)
There was only one requirement left and that was to heal fifty sick people from their sickness. Adrian thought it was easy because he thought it was any sickness. Saena also got a new skill when she reached the level 70 threshold. Adrian believed that Saena was meant to evolve at this level because she did not have this skill at level 50.
Skill: Martyr

Type: Active Cleanse
Effect: Absorb a sickness or status debuff from a target. The target will be cleansed of that status debuff but the user will suffer from the status debuff. Can only absorb two at a time. After a certain amount of time, the user will recover from the debuff and could gain a slight resistance to the cleansed status debuff.
Cooldown: 10 minutes
Mana Cost: 200 Mana Points
Cast Time: 10 seconds
“The only problem is now how to treat the sick people. I could just try waltzing inside a medical facility but that would surely backfire. I would probably be treated as an insane person if I told them my bird could cure illnesses.” Adrian thought to himself.
Adrian decided to think about it when he encounters a sick person. He used Glamour on himself and polymorphed Sirius. Kanlaon turned into his human version while Saena’s new nest was Kanlaon’s head. Adrian then remembered to look for skillbooks for Kanlaon at a mage tower. Mage Towers sells skillbooks that are common to rare.
Adrian did try looking at the auction house but fire magic spells were common so those were sold out. The remaining fire spellbooks on the auction are the overpriced ones that nobody buys. Ice spellbooks are quite rare because it is a form of advance water magic. Kanlaon will be able to use water attribute spells but he said that ice spells are much better. Talk about a picky child (dragon). 𝘳.𝑐ℴ
Adrian wanted to look at rural villages first as there is a more likely chance of sick people there. He then entered into the fracture for a forest near Whiterock Village. It was a mining village located at one of the Empire’s territory. The Empire is called the Corona Empire as it is said that they are descendants of the demigod Appollonius who was the son of the God of the Sun.
The people of the central continent consider this true as they are blessed with the shining sun for most of the day. The northern continent is like a frozen tundra where people are said to live as nomads. The nomads in the north are said to stay at areas where the snow is calm and livestock to get nurtured. There is also the west continent that is said to be an endless sea of sand.
In the west continent, the people there reside in an oasis. Due to that reason, they are a tight knit group that does not take well to outsiders. They can still tolerate outsiders but one mistake and you are gone. They are a close community due to the harsh desert.
The southern continent was a bit different to the others as they are consisting of islands compared to a giant land mass. Each island had volcanoes and maybe even more than one. Due to this, the people of the southern continent are excellent seafarers. They are also known for their abundant plant life due to the richness of their soils.
Lastly, the east continent is seen as the land of mysticism and was rumored to be the birth place of magic. In the eastern continent, an individual’s growth is more prioritized than the growth of all people. They go by the survival of the fittest motto but still care for the normal folk. They see it as everything must remain in equilibrium so that everything would be perfect.
Adrian arrived at the forest near Whiterock Village and immediately headed towards the settlement. Thankfully, he was already issued an adventurers identification so he just waltz right through the front door. The first thing he saw was lots of gnomes and dwarves that are carrying sacks of different ores.
The good thing about the empire is that everyone is equal as long you are considered as those of the “human” race. Due to this, the orcs and gnomes that are persecuted in other kingdoms could live in the empire. As there are skills and abilities only accessible to certain races, the empire flourished due to maximizing the usefulness of these skills.
Adrian’s first target was the infirmary but he could already see some people coughing badly. His eyes sparkled because he might finish the requirement today and evolve Saena. He immediately ordered Saena to use her skill “Martyr” to an old lady that was coughing to restore her.
“Try to be sneaky and do not let others know you used a skill.” Adrian ordered via the soul link.
Adrian sat down a few steps away from the old lady. His plan was for Saena to stumble upon the old lady. Saena would then quickly use her skill when she sees how cute she was acting. Adrian would then apologize for the inconvenience on the old lady. He thought of this perfect plan so that he would not look suspicious.
Saena did a “roger” type of action by trying to put her right wing up to her head. The plan was executed perfectly and Saena was able to use her skill. Adrian did what he planned and was walking with a smile due to the system notification.
[Saena has absorbed the status ailment of a target.]
[Saena has acquired the Tussis.]
Saena was then coughing but not severely. About two to three minutes later, Saena was cured. Although Adrian did not like the effect of the skill, it was a good thing that the skill significantly decreases the time spent dealing with the sickness. For debuffs, Adrian could just apply some potions on Saena for her to recover. Adrian was very happy but was later downcast because he saw that the number did not increase.
-Heal 50 sick people from their sickness (0/50)
“What do you mean!?” Adrian shouted while putting his hands up. The ones who saw his action thought he lost his mind.
Adrian wanted to start berating the developers for being very vague. He then thought that little sicknesses are not considered. He then shivered at the fact that the sickness should be severe or worse. He then thought of another idea and that was to inflict himself with status conditions. It would be difficult due to his passive but there is still a fifty per cent chance.
“I will only do that if I find that there is no longer another way. I am not a masochist.” Adrian told himself while nodding to himself.
Adrian then found other target or rather patients to heal. It was a cycle of ups and downs due to numerous failed and unsuccessful attempts. He tried sneaking to an infirmary only to be chased out by an Amazonian helper with a broom. At the end of the day, he barely reached his goal.
-Heal 50 sick people from their sickness (7/50)
“I guess there is no other choice but to become the patient myself. We are in this together right.” Adrian said as he raised his fist in the air. The others around him just walked away while avoiding the broom hair attached to his actual hair. A system prompt then appeared in his sights a few seconds later.
[The game will now go for a system maintenance. The game will be accessible after 24 hours. All dungeon dives will get a quick save ticket. All crafting progress will be saved. It is recommended for all players to log out in five minutes. We are sorry for the inconvenience.]
“Might as well log out. I am too tired due to using my brain all day.” Adrian said as he sighed and logged out. .𝒎

Meanwhile at Atlas Headquarters after the world message was released….
“Sir, should we push the “Emerging from the Shadows” event after the “Undead Event” is finished?” a woman in a futuristic visor asked.
“Since it was activated during the Undead Event, we can only compromise and tie it with the story of the undead. The story for the undead has yet to arrive at a conclusion so we will base the conclusion of that for this event. Ratify all overlapping quest so that important quests will not reach a dead end.” The director said.
“Sir, it is the vampires who chose a champion first. Also someone from the village Genesis has a path to become a Jotunn but it is only a thirty per cent chance.” A man in a futuristic visor said.
“It does not change even if the Jotunn has chosen a champion. Their invasion would still depend on a level 100 mission for that player if he is lucky to become one. Genesis Village. A village where monsters of the long forgotten past reside. We are quite lucky that the players still think it is something akin to a tutorial. In the end, somethings are just meant to be.” The director muttered while the workers are fixated on fixing bugs that might appear.
