Unexpected.
[Ace POV],
Shaking my head to get rid of the sudden dizziness, I turned to observe my surroundings when my head felt better, but the scene that appeared in front of my eyes was unexpected.
This.....
"Incredible," Emma exclaid beside , while I was silent at the sight in front of .
In front of was a bustling village with a dozen people heading in various directions.
There were buildings here and there as people walked down roads that led to various locations.
We appeared to have been teleported to a highland a little more away from the village, but it was because of this location that we could see the village from above.
Because of our improved eyesight, the view was even better.
As I was thinking these things, I turned to gaze at Emma beside , who had already released the mana she was circulating as she turned to take a big breath.
"Everything looks and feels so real," she said, pausing again before speaking.
"Is this another world?" she asked, and I didn't dispute because the situation in front of my eyes did not appear to be a hoax.
As I thought of this, I was about to speak when a panel suddenly appeared in front of .
Seeing this, I kept what I was about to say to myself while I read the lines in the panel in front of .
...…
[Instant Hidden Dungeon: Cetery Assault],
[Type: Quest],
[Quest: The village has been experiencing so strange events in recent days, as so villagers appear to have started disappearing without a trace, causing hidden fear in the hearts of everyone in the village.
Help in resolving this issue to clear the dungeon.],
[Ti Limit: 7 Days[Tir will start imdiately after the dungeon participants find clues relating to the quest]],
[After clearing the dungeon, the participants will be rewarded],
...…
After reading and understanding the texts on the panel, I closed it as I turned to Anna and spoke.
"Regardless of the strange scenery we're seeing now, we at least have a direction," I said as Emma nodded in response to my comnts before speaking.
"The quest itself is self-explanatory," she said, pausing before continuing.
"The question now is, where are we? It appears to be another world rather than the illusion I believe it to be ", she said as she examined the village-like settlent in front of us.
When I heard what she said, I didn't respond right away, as I turned to look at the village in front of .
It's obvious it's because of the quest we're here but what I expected when I entered the dungeon entrance was a similar setting like the goblin cave and not a location that appeared to be a world on its own.
Even from where I stood, I could see so people, and, as Emma stated, everything was far too real. Apart from the old setting, I couldn't detect any falsehood in the people below. They gave the impression that they were real, but this raises more questions.
'Where is this place?' Were the images we were seeing now programd and created by the Primordial Chronicle for the quest?'
As I was thinking about these things, Emma called my na and pulled out of my thoughts.
"Ace, do you have any idea what's going on?" she asked, clearly referring to our current location.
Hearing this, I responded as I had a thought that could be related to all this.
"Do you rember the content of stage two, Emma?" I inquired as Emma paused for a few monts before responding.
"Is it the part of the primordial chronicle where it talks about inheritance and whether or not the dreams, myths, and stories passed down through the ages are true or not?" she asked.
"Yes," I said.
"Are you implying that this might be a story ntioned in the primordial chronicle?" she inquired.
"Yes," I replied, and she spoke again after hearing this.
"But didn't the Primordial Chronicle just tell us about Stage 2? Isn't it too soon for anything about it to appear? "She inquired.
Hearing this, I responded without looking at her, instead focusing on the settlent in front of .
"Didn't stage 1 begin as soon as the primordial chronicle inford us?" As Emma gave her response, I asked a question.
"It did," she said, and then she didn't say anything else about the situation.
Seeing this, I spoke up.
"Well, nothing has been proven and this dungeon might just be a different type we just happened to encounter," I said as I added again; "What we need to do now is enter the village, find so clue relating to the quest, and finish it," I said, to which Emma nodded before speaking.
"But we can't enter the village this way, can we?" Emma asked, gesturing to our clothes before speaking again.
"Seeing as we don't know anything about the village, entering like this may just draw unnecessary attention or cause problems," she said as I replied.
"I've already considered that," I said, turning to examine the costus of so of the people below.
The n wore tunics and long stockings while the Won wore long dresses and stockings made of wool.
Looking at the costus of the people moving around and the setting of the village, I could tell it was the Middle Ages.
It's just a matter of whether everyone here is normal or has magical abilities.
I turned to Emma and spoke as I was thinking about this.
"When we get to the village later, try not to use anything that says magic," I stated as Emma nodded in response before speaking.
"All right, but how do we enter the village?" she asked, referring back to our clothes.
Seeing this, I responded.
