Once I appear in the Lobby, I go ahead and look around. And what I find is rather majestic, if I'm being honest.
The Lobby itself seems to be a massive ballroom of sorts. With nurous tables set up around the place, a large area in the center of the room where people can dance with a partner, and a podium in the back center of the room.
It's all very luxurious in design. Both the room and the refreshnts.
And, of course, every Dinsional Champion in the Dinsional Grid is within the room. Each of whom are confused as to why the heck we're in a ballroom.
Then so sort of silhouette appears on the pedestal and begins speaking.
"Greeting, Champions of the System," the silhouette states in a rather authoritative manner that reminds a little bit of the power I feel behind the quantum beings. Albeit not at the sa level. "Before we begin our Championships event, I would like to grant you all the chance to get to know one another better! So let us begin with a ball."
The silhouette suddenly snaps its fingers, making a wave of quantum energy flood through the ballroom before so sort of illusion – and I can only tell it's an illusion due to my partial resistance towards the Quantum Architect's quantum affinity, implying this is probably the System's doing – appears over every single Champion in the room. Myself included.
And the illusion is rather detailed.
It pretty much just makes it so we all look like we're wearing fancy formal attire that perfectly matches each of us.
The others all look confused as hell, but I can clearly tell that we're still wearing our gear. It's nothing but an optical thing making us look like we're in formal attire.
That aside, I'm not too pleased about the fact that the dress they made wear is exposing more skin than I'm used to due to the thinner fabric. And it's also way too form fitting.
Then again, I'm used to wearing a cloak over a set of armor. aning no skin exposed at all and very little of my figure showing through.
I look around the room to find a lot of eyes converging towards now that they've no doubt checked their stats and current state to find that they still have their gears' benefits. And so of the guys end up looking rather pleasantly surprised by the sight of in a dress.
Which irritates enough that I snap my fingers, running a wave of my own quantum energy through the illusion to shatter it. Making my form glitch out once before I reappear in my usual armor.
Most of the Champions in the room don't seem to care in the slightest about the fact that I'm now in armor again, other than their obvious curiosity about how I just shattered the illusion. It's only a few that look disappointed.
I, of course, mark them in my mind as people to avoid talking to.
Not that I really plan on talking to anyone in here anyways. Discover exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire
I glance at Luna, who was clearly brought here with despite her obvious confusion, to find the girl actually in her humanoid form right next to . With a dress of her own on.
And while I would find it cute, I find the sight of a mini- in a dress odd to look at. So I shatter the illusion over her as well.
Putting the matter of the illusions aside though, I can't help but notice sothing.
For so reason I seem to be in a half True Form state with my scythe floating next to . I don't have my horns or wings right now, but my scythe is definitely here.
Why that is, I'm not sure.
I glance at the System's little avatar as it continues speaking, bringing everyone's attention back to it, "If you have not already figured it out, I am the System's Avatar. I speak as and for the System and represent its authority. Now, please enjoy the ball for the Tier 5 dungeon shall open in two hours. And rest assured, the livestream will not begin until the dungeon opens."
Well this was honestly not sothing I was expecting.
Then again, from what I've figured out ever since the Reset began, the System seems to be trying to use us to deal with the corruption. And it may be trying to kill us after that. That or it's trying to force us to fight each other to make the best blades against the corruption.
But a unified blade is better than a solitary one. So forcing us into a situation like this to talk with the other Champions would make so sense.
Not that I really care.
I just walk up to a corner of the room and close my eyes, with Luna following after . Albeit only after she turns back into her bat form and plops herself down in my cloak's hood to sleep.
Unfortunately for , just because I do this doesn't an everyone will just ignore . Considering the fact that I can sense nurous gazes still locked on , with so people walking over towards .
Although the first one I sense is Lucas, so I don't bother opening my eyes.
I hope he's planning on playing gatekeeper. That would be nice.
After Lucas though, a couple other people I recognize appear as well. Including the Ancient Wyrm and Ancestral Dragon, both of whom are here because one of them left their Block to go randomly challenge a Dinsional Champion from another block for their position so that they're both Champions. Then there's Gramps, who is also a Champion.
As for the other people who try to co over here, most of them are sent fleeing just from a glance by the ones already here.
Actually, most of the Champions don't even bother with this lineup.
But most is not all, and so still do.
I open my eyes as I spot two different Champions walking over here right now.
Two Champions I very much recognize from before the Reset just from the news alone.
The Ancient Terror and the Holy One.
Both of whom are people I've been keeping an eye out for. Since they're both very…
Unpredictable.
