World Online - Chapter 202 A Week
“Urgh. Why does my head pain so much?” Jake clutched his head as he looked around.
The first thing he did when 12 hours passed was log on back into the game without checking anything else.
And as he did, all he could hear were the notifications that one would get when someone else was bombarding them with messages.
So, he did the obvious thing. He muted messages for an hour before trying to assess the situation.
One thing he understood was that he didn’t die. He didn’t lose a level. But he was forced to log out to ‘rest’.
And the person who did that was none other than Ganshin.
But Ganshin was nowhere to be seen in this courtyard that Jake was in. There was no one in this courtyard, except for a door that led outside.
Jake checked the map, but it obviously refused to tell him where he was at the moment.
“Is the mission over or not? I know that we aren’t in the evil lands. No way will the evil god allow the sun to shine so bright there.” Jake thought to himself as he walked to the door.
He took a deep breath as he pulled on it.
The door creaked open, and a musky smell escaped from within.
But so did a few sounds. Sounds of life, people talking, all of which comforted him.
He stepped inside.
“The entire party is here? Everyone?” Jake was surprised as he took a quick survey. He knew everyone in this room.
Ganshin was here, and so was Annie. The mages, swordsmen, every single party member from the day before were all here. And they were all sitting in a circle.
But the moment Jake entered the room, everyone looked at him.
It was completely silence.
“He is alive! He is awake!” One of them shouted, breaking the silence.
The moment he said that, every single one of the party members stood up and rushed to Jake, shouting, cheering.
“What is happening? Why is everyone acting like this? I was just gone for like a day right? And they do know that I am immortal.” Jake shook his head.
But when he said that, all he got was weird glances from everyone.
“What? Did I say something wrong?” He asked.
Everyone stopped talking and looked back at the one person who didn’t rush up, but that didn’t mean that he didn’t care.
Ganshin was also standing up, looking at the situation with a smile.
“You were gone for a week. For one week, you were frozen in the blood of the evil god. Even the god of light couldn’t believe that you held on for one week.” Ganshin said.
“Wait, what?!!!!” Jake shouted, staggering back.
“I was gone for one week? I thought that the twelve hours that I slept was the problem!”
Then, he understood why he was getting all those texts.
He opened his chat window.
As he expected, out of all the messages he was getting, on top was Myriad Arrows, who was still sending him messages at this very moment.
[I was gone for a week! I didn’t see your messages.] Jake quickly sent a response.
Finally, the bombardment stopped for a second.
[#$%^&*(]
[What the $%^& were you doing? Where are you?]
Then, another round of questions came him way.
Jake smiled as he shook his head.
[I have to go. Now that I think about it, my work isn’t done yet. I still have a few things to do.] Jake said as he closed his chat window and looked forward at Ganshin.
“Did you recover the devilish stone?” Jake asked.
“Recover? Why don’t you check wherever you put it?” Ganshin said, chuckling.
“You still didn’t take it from my body?” Jake raised his eyebrows as he checked his clothes. Indeed, the wooden box was in his back pocket.
He took it out and opened it.
Within was the rock that everyone risked their lives for.
Jake quickly raised it up for Ganshin to take, but he shook his head.
“This is not mine to take. You were the reason the god of light himself intervened. He decided that you should be the one to offer the rock, so you shall be the one to do that.” Ganshin said.
Jake nodded.
“So where is the church? Where are we?” Jake asked.
“Where are we? Don’t you recognize this? Oh, you might not have been in here ever. We are in the church, but in the area reserved for the knights and the men of the church. Not for outsiders.” One of the swordsmen said.
“So this is where the church’s cavalry stays.” Jake understood.
“Which way to the church though? The main church?” Jake asked.
“Follow me.” Sister Annie said.
But it wasn’t like everyone else wasn’t going to follow. This was something all of them worked so hard for, after all.
“I hate to ask it, but what happened with the beast of Ti’An? What happened after the evil god attacked me? I don’t understand any of that.” Jake glanced at Sister Annie.
“That… it is a long story. I think it is better that it is left untouched.” She shook her head.
“So many mysteries even after the whole thing is over. This entire quest also has my own class at the center of it. What kind of class did I land myself in, for there to be an entire story line dedicated to it?” Jake shook his head and sighed.
They were walking toward the other exit of the room.
The door opened automatically, without needing anyone to touch it, and Jake could see the giant ceiling that was so high up, even giants could enter this other room.
This was the church, the church of light.
And Jake didn’t need to walk further in to know that there was a Statue of God within, waiting for his offering.
