Rebirth: Over the Horizon

"Hum, It seems he is delayed."

It was an Archangel, even though she wore a mask one could clearly predict how beautiful she is.

"Yes, I also think that is the case."

She snorted to the young man, who replied "Don't be such a bot..Ha.."

Before the army like the group, a young man with light blonde hair wearing a red mask with a blue pattern appears.

"Hey, Adam~, What with is new get up?"

"..."

'I am speechless.'

"I don't want to go to jail."

"..."

"Now don't joke around."

Before the girl continues to speak the young man beside interrupted her. "Well, can we discuss how are we going to level up quickly and catch up with others?"

Adam glances at the bot like a man who was speaking sternly.

"Now, the average level of players in [Horizon] is 25~35."

"We are not going to level up through grinding in...I first thought there will 10 or so but, there are more than 300 here."

"So, I thought of a plan which is suitable for your large group."

"What is it?" Sariel, the woman from before asks him eagerly.

"You have to go to the town Lord of Axsis and say: I can help you conquer."

"What? 'I can help you conquer."

"Yes. After a few seconds, you will get an S grade mission that is a legendary quest."

"Wow... How do know this?"

Adam said a white lie without any expression "He asked me before, but because I don't have an army like your, I rejected it."

"Remember this, all of your levels should be below 3, there will multiple Quest within the mission."

"And you will get rewards proportional to the number of players you have. So, I am sure you guys can catch up with the rest of the players within 10 days or so."

"It's amazing..."

"Then, I have work to do. I will take my leave."

"Thank you."

As he disappeared a stern voice landed on his ear, he just nodded.

"Can we really...trust him?"

"Well, we can only wait to know."

Bern

It was the slum city on the way to Axsis and the capital. Well, probably it is better to call it a Criminal city.

Here all the crazy and screw lose killers, tactical and keen thieves, and ruined and power lost warriors gather.

'I have to find that person.'

Today, Adam came here to find a summoner, not so ruined in that.

Well, he has no desire to become a summoner, but there is an egg that he obtained from Silver Lord Wolf.

Still, he had no idea what to do with it? Probably it would be best if he put it in the auction but, he was curious as to what is inside the egg.

As soon as he entered a bern, a notification popped up before him.

[You have entered the slum city, Bern]

[You are free to kill anyone(Players Included)]

He sighs after seeing the notification and continues to walk.

The players here all seemed to be criminals...he just ignored them and went to the adventure guild located here.

"Hello adventure, what mission do you wish to accept."

-Find my ring.

-please help me clean my house. You will be rewarded handsomely~

-Want to become rich. Come to the border hahaha...

It was like more than information rather than mission.

"No, I need you to give me information about someone."

"Sorry, but we are not disclosing adventure's personal information."

He took out a pouch of gold coins and pushed it towards the girl.

"What is the name of the person?"

"Zouye."

She kept her smiling and flipped a few dozes of pages and finally found the name he asked.

"He has retired and now runs a pub in the middle, it is also very famous."

"Oh, Can you tell me more about him?"

The girl kept her mouth zipped without saying a word. He again pushed some gold coins to her.

"He is a well-known mercenary. Also known as 'Rapid Summoner'. Likes to drink and discover new things, hates to talk with people."

Adam nodded his head went out of the office and directly went into the pub that girl mentioned.

"Hi~ What drink you want, sir?" A charming girl asked him in a seductive tone.

If it was any other man, he would definitely try to at least talk with her for a few more minutes or hit on her.

But, Adam was unfazed and replied "I want to see Zouye, the 'Rapid Summoner'."

"Sorry sir, I quite don't understand what are you saying."

Adam again took out a pouch of golden coins and tossed it to her.

"Follow me, sir."

The girl went into a room and turned the lion head which was located opposite the door.

A few seconds later, a secret entrance formed on the floor of the room.

The underground base was like a maze, after doing many twists and turns they finally arrived at an isolated room.

Inside was sitting an old man, drinking his tea and reading a book leisurely.

"Master, there is a customer." The girl introduced Adam and went out of the room.

Adam waited for a few seconds, but the old man didn't say a thing, so he made himself comfortable.

"Quite the impatient one, I see."

"You are the slow one, old man."

"..."

"So, what do you want?"

Adam took out the large egg and placed it before him and said "How to hatch this egg."

Zouye took a closer look at this egg and said "It is a unique one you have to use your summon spell, if your not a summoner use your blood. "

"Then?" Adam tilted his head and said.

"If your bond is high with the creature inside it will stay with you it might escape..or attack you."

"How can I check my bond with the creature that is inside the egg."

"There is no way. Only summoner can do it."

Adam face become a little upset and he sighs.

"But, you can try it, young man, I can feel that the creature has a good opinion towards you."

"How can you tell?"

"Don't wanna tell."

"..."

Zouye gave a dragger to him and Adam received it without saying anything.

Blood trickled from his hand and painted the snow-white egg into crimson colour.

[Do you want to hatch a Legendary grade Egg?]

[Remainder: This process can't be undone."

[Yes/No]

"Yes"

A golden light radiated from the egg blinding his eyes for a few seconds.

When he recovered there was already a soft and furry animal resting on his hand snuggling its head in his palm.

It was large, but, not large than any other normal puppy.

[Nine-Tailed Winged Fox]

[A powerful and gentle creature. As its bloodline becomes stronger number of tails also increases until it becomes nine.]

"NINE-TAILED WINGED FOX!!"

The old man slammed his hand on the table and screamed.

"It rarer among legendary creatures."

"What..?"

"You are a lucky young man, It is a legendary creature capable of fighting dragon and phoenix at the same time."

Adam was just silent, looking at the new window before him.

[Are you willing to accept NINE-TAILED WINGED FOX as your pet?]

[REMEMBER: Because your profession is not a summoner, you can only make one animal as your pet. This process cannot be undone]

[Yes/No]

"Yes."

"Wu, Wu"

He looked down at the soft and white creature with two cute wings and one small tail, his eyes become slightly soft.
