Chapter 389: Bugged NPC?

'Why is everyone becoming so smart and perceptive lately…'

Taking another look at the bag that I received earlier, I didn't find the curiosity to check it out as my head was filled with countless thoughts, so I just put it into my ring using the 'magical bag' method.

The sudden quest notif coupled with the way that Mountain behaved, gave me much to ponder upon as I stopped looking for food everywhere and went into deep thinking mode instead after letting Light rest inside the space of the leather armor's chest plate…

The friendly way that Mountain acted was understandable considering that we both made up last time and could be considered borderline friends, but the way that he came to a conjecture that my explanation regarding that accident when we went legacy hunting was made-up and even assumed that I probably saved them sounded a bit off.

Though he wasn't necessarily an idiot, Mountain didn't seem like the guy who would read that far into things, I obviously wanted to discuss this with him to find out more but after giving me the bag and letting out what he said, he simply ignored me as he went back to help serving other customers…

Though I seriously put some thought into it, it was just driven by curiosity since this whole situation didn't announce any sort of danger, but it still held a clue to something major like the key to triggering quests!

The only two assumptions I could read were either that 'Sean' and 'Clara' possibly shared some of their insights with him or that was somehow related to Mountain's mental problem. After all, he certainly transformed from someone who was fiery and full of anger and pride into a peaceful and friendly middle-aged man who stood in a shop to serve noodles, if he really had a serious case of personality disorder, then maybe he also had a smart enough personality to analyze and reach the conjecture that caused a hidden quest to surface…

Of course, there was also the possibility that too much about me and what I did was leaked by me for him to reach a conclusion even without much thinking, but that was seriously unlikely considering how confidential my role in the matter was supposed to be.

'A bugged NPC?'

Ever since entering this game world, where not even the rigid people in the 'beginner village' seemed to be NPCs, Mountain seemed to be even more complicated than normal humans, which seemed too much for one that should have just appeared in a side-event…

On the other hand, the clue for quest triggering wasn't clear at all as it was quite a random action, not to mention the rewards being material stuff within the normal world, which was more similar to the 'Join The Lightning Brigade' (Sudden Quest) one that I received at the beginning and unlike the 'Demons' Advent' which gave system-related awards...

'Sight… Whatever, at least that's a free completed quest, unlike…'

Having already spent over half an hour thinking about this matter, I decided to let it rest after adding a mental note to myself to try and take more immersed actions in hope of getting another easy quests like this as I stared into my quest tab with slight dissatisfaction...

[ 'Demons' Advent'

Description: The Whole 'Lost Realm' is threatened by the corrupt nature of demons and their twisted ideals, it's your mission to remove as much of this threat as possible…

Objective 1:

- Take down the Demon Bases situated in the different domains.

+ 'Demon Base Locator'

* Reward: 1~3 stat point per base.

= Has been achieved 2 times. (Repeatable)

= Has been remotely achieved 88 times. (Repeatable)

Objective 2:

- Reveal the demons' hiding place and announce the truth to the world.

* Reward: decided according to contribution. 

= First step, 'Preliminary cleansing of demon pawns' has been achieved.

= Second step, 'Complete eradication of demons in a domain' has been achieved.

== Stage Repeatable Quest completed! Reward will be handed out once the stage is cleared! == ]

Ever since the reward spam had ended as the last Demon Nest was taken care of, I once again received a step completion notif which was followed by a full quest completion notif. However...

'Unlike this quest which keeps getting its reward delayed…'

Just like how completing the first step was followed by a [ Reward withheld until the complete objective is achieved… ], the whole quest completion was followed by a [ Reward will be handed out once the stage is cleared! ]

Although the quest had allowed me to gain quite an amount of stat points so far through 'Objective 1', it was a bit frustrating to think about the constant delaying of 'Objective 2's reward, especially after just completing a hidden quest and getting its reward without spending any effort.

The fact that I wasn't sure when I would find my way out of the domain only made that worse, but my usual carefree expression returned to my face quickly enough as I had no reason to be that stressed regarding that matter.

Not only did I have sufficient stat points to distribute and let my physical strength have another qualitative change, but my elements had already stabilized enough to start training an 'Elemental Control' Manual. So, even if I was really forced to stay within the domain, I still had a lot of ways to improve and be ready for whatever might come my way.

Naturally, my search plan was still in place in any case, although dragons were creatures that liked solitude and were hard to notice that most records were only considered myths, I believed that it wouldn't take me long to tour through the whole Nature Domain with my speed, if there was a dragon-in-hiding here, I was sure to catch it!

While I still had to consider possible hostility from such dragons, my line of thought ended there as I turned around in the direction of the 'Hotel'. I had just got myself out of a major battle so I needed to at least get some rest, at least for the time that is left of the celebration event.

'After all, my food tour was interrupted thanks to this abrupt quest today, so I need to make up for that in the next two days!'
