Versatile: Alternate World Chapter 572

Published at 30th of November 2022 05:31:55 AM

The Tactician is such an annoying bastard and a very annoying guy. He is the embodiment of a musclehead and peabrain person that many would never think they would see in their lifetime. I don't know if his brain barely developed or what. The only thing I know is that he is just turning into an annoyance and seeing his reaction just now confirms it. Despite being called the "Tactician", he is not out there commanding the angel forces to take action, solve problems and save his continent from the impending doom. Instead, he is, drowning in lust and alcohol like the real bastard. I will not be even surprised if he starts blaming somebody once the situation has gone worse.

If only offending this guy is not a crime, I would have already dragged him out of here and thrown him into the mountain of problems their continent is facing so that he at least understands the grave situation of Luminous Continent. However, I will not be doing that. I will wait for someone else to just do the task instead, I don't want to dirty my hands and waste my time with a useless NPC.

Although I am already thinking of many things to beat this guy up in my mind, in reality, I can't do that as this guy is protected by law. You can say that the people of Luminous Continent are on his side, and the law will prioritize his safety over the person who treated his room, even if the tactician is on the wrong side of the coin. That is also the main reason he was being respected even with his bad behavior. They just don't want to get punished by the law. I don't know what the higher-ups of the angels saw to him that they are willing to punish their people for the sake of one man who does not seem to do anything at all, even behind the backs of the public eye.

Looking at him currently, I can easily tell that he is getting annoyed with me by just standing there and stating what I needed for him currently. The sour look on his face is the indication that he is getting annoyed at my presence there even though I was just standing there without doing much. And since he is still there playing with his girls, he is clearly not in the mood for a talk about something serious. The next thing I knew is that he waved his left hand and the bodyguards that are just standing behind him started to move like they were some kind of muscular bouncers in a bar.

"Ha, I see. So you are just going to throw me out huh? Then don't bother, I can see myself out just fine without me throwing out of this building. I can go out myself. If you are very unwilling to even cooperate in solving the trouble happening in this land of yours, then so be it. I am not forcing you."

The bodyguards still try to throw me out but I easily shake them off.

"Piss off," I angrily shook off one of the grabbing guards and move out of the office. The people who saw that immediately avoided my field of view, trying to curry favor from the Tactician by ignoring me. Ha, very fantastic. What a bunch of losers.

I walked out of this so-called office of the tactician. There is no need for explanation, this f*cker here is not the best person you needed to ask for the situation of the continent. At best, he is the only one best to ask if he is the last person in this continent to remain.

Since the Tactician is not even going to cooperate with me, the only thing I needed to do is ask the locals. I already have the basic foundation of what is the main trouble that is currently happening around the Luminous Continent. The only thing that I just needed to know is how much has changed from the current quest and the previous timeline's quest. The quest of the expedition in the past timeline happened a bit later as the expedition was announced 3 months later. This timeline had the expedition occur much earlier than the expected date.

With the disparity of dates from the previous and the current timeline's starting time of the expedition, it is bound to happen that some events that should have happened in the past timeline has yet to occur, or are just in the preliminary stages of happening. With the prior knowledge of what is bound to happen, I could either let the course happen naturally, or solve it before it will grow bigger. Learn, adapt and thrive.

As I went out of the vicinity of the office of the Tactician, the quest log has appeared before me, which means the quest tree has finally initiated and started its course. The one that appeared before me is the introduction to the expedition quest which does not exist before during the Sandurk Expedition. But what caught me by surprise is the content itself.

[Luminous Expedition: Rogue Quest Line]

After arriving Luminous Continent and denied a cooperation by one of the people who holds the key information to the trouble brewing in the continent of angels, you, one of the Pioneers tasked by Queen Titania must choose a path on how to tackle the situation and solve the problem. You are on your own and the quest you will be receiving will be depending on your actions. Perhaps your actions might change the course of the story to a new path.

I didn't receive anything similar like this in the past timeline, might be because the situation before was too dire already for the tactician to deny help from us that he immediately employed us and the main story quest of the expedition has finally started. Right now, the situation is not yet on dire needs of completion but it is still troublesome for the expedition to be initiated as soon as possible. That also means something has already occurred before we are drafted to solve their freaking problem.

Seeing that I am free to do what I want and forge my own way to the game's plot, that means the main story quests of the expedition are something that I don't need to follow. I can just literally avoid all the conflict of the expedition and do what I want or just fully ignore the quest and do your own adventure. That must be the reason why it was called Rogue Quest Line as the quest will only literally appear if I accept them from NPCs. Or if maybe if I am wrong, the quest will only appear during the important key moments of the game.

Looks like the things in this game is much more deeper than I thought it would be. Who would have thought a mechanic like this would appear by choosing an option that should have not been done? After all, you need to obtain the information from the Tactician. That made things much more different indeed.

Perhaps this is better done in solo. Sigma, Harmless Sparrow and Mr. Teddy seems to be teaming up in this and since I can say they have a higher chance to join the original quest line, I would rather avoid them so that they won't end up having a messed up quest line like me. If I have joined the normal questline, I might have allowed them to team up with me but in an uncertain route quest line like this where the future events are not yet predetermined due to how I don't have much connection now to the main quest. It's best to go solo.

With the plan set to stone, I went to the shop, bought some supplies I will need as I will not be returning to this city for half of the remainder time of the Expedition. Once I have everything I needed and will probably use anything, I activated my flight ability and flew away from the city, into the road to reach the first village that has been ravaged by the Hellspawn Calamity that occurred after the expedition takes place.

Two in-game days have passed since I left the city. The first thing I did is grind the hell out in the monster zone, Cloud Forest where the trees produces the clouds and monsters that loves to eat clouds lives. The class I decided to grind skills with? It's obvious. The Onmyoji class.

As much as I wanted to do the puppeteer class and the Reaper class, the puppeteer class will only be good if you have your own puppet. Without building one yet and with the Versatile Weapon unavailable for battle, the Puppeteer is out of the question to use. As for the Reaper, I can do it just fine as I have the weapon already, however, I am more interested in using the ability of the Onmyoji to control the Shikigami. With the Shikigami, I can actually spy the village without actually going there and exposing myself in danger. The first thing I needed to get in this? Information, and my Shikigami might be the best thing that I might be going to use now.
