[Wesker’s POV!]
.
.
Hey.
So, it’s me, Adam, who has taken Wesker’s form, and my clone I have sent with the dark mages to complete whatever deal they have.
I have given this quite a bit of thought to whether I should go out to meet Laplace as Adam or to meet the players here as Wesker. And after weighing all the pros and cons, I decided to be Wesker for the time being.
[Time left for Beta release: 5 minutes and 23 seconds!]
Both the destinations, whether it was Morpheus’ or Adam’s, they were both at least a few months’ travel. And certainly over 4 months. Even if I had taken that path, I would still be traveling, while the most important event of this planet would take place here.
Even though the other places were far more dangerous, I didn’t need to worry about Adam or Morpheus.
It was because they both could access the [Personal Space] and [Free Style] on their own. I also checked but luckily or unluckily, they couldn’t use the [Restart] function.
Anyway, things have been rather peaceful in the Border Town for the past three months. Certainly, there are more witches and elves coming to this town than before, but that’s within expectations.
I got some news from Adam that they have covered halfway through their journey, and Morpheus was enjoying his life as well. And reading their message, I nodded at my decision to stay here and wait for the players.
[Time left for Beta release: 4 minutes and 42 seconds!]
In the last 3 months specifically, I had transformed the entire town into a [Start Town]. Being the duke of the city and being able to control the forest, I was able to create an ideal hunting ground for the players.
Though I still kept things in check based on how I played this game for the first time. I had to keep in mind that I cannot spoon feed the players, otherwise that would take away their experience from the game.
So other than my intervention with arrays and a bit of alteration of the city and the forest, I left the rest of the things as they were.
For example, I didn’t touch the underground black market even a bit.
“Hey! What are you grinning for?” Leena asked as she dusted the table in front of me.
“Cough cough. What are you doing?” I asked as I looked at her dusting the table right over my face. At which she answered,
“You said that there will be some important customers coming here. So I was making sure that they didn’t find it uncomfortable. Who knows what god must be coming next.”
“Master. The city is going to be safe this time, too, right?” Anna asked in a concerned voice and I laughed a little before answering,
“Don’t worry. They are just a bunch of teenagers. Around 50 or so, coming here this time.” m-vl|emp yr your novel source
“And?” Leena waited for me to complete my sentence and I looked at her before answering,
“They will be teleported into the city center, right in front of the city hall.”
Though a bit surprised, they weren’t as shocked. That is until Anna asked,
“And?”
And with a kind smile, I turned to Anna as I spoke.
“They are immortals.”
“…”
“…”
“I knew it!” Leena shouted in shock as she began cleaning the room faster but
-Thwack!
I lightly hit her head with the book before speaking.” Let’s go. It’s about time they spawned.”
Leena paused to look at me, before sighing, and Anna too stood up before all three of us got out of the shop and walked towards the center of the market.
A lot of people greeted us on our way, who smiled and asked how our day was going. We just smiled and answered most of them at once, before we reached the city center.
[Time until Beta Update: 1 min and 2 seconds!]
“So. How long will it be before they appear here?” Leena asked again, curiously, and I answered.
“In a minute. But first.”
I then used a couple of arrays to hide Leena, Anna, and myself. Witches would attract a lot of attention and while I am not really a center of attention, for now I just would like to observe.
[Beta Update!]
For a moment, a strange noise appeared, and the entire world paused in front of me. I could not move around, unable to do anything at all… except for reading the messages appearing in front of me.

The messages kept ringing, but it was hard to understand anything right now. I just stayed like this for a while before a new set of messages appeared,

After that, a short trailer showing the world began playing. It was taken from various angles, showing especially the parts of the starter towns that the players were going to start from.
While I was amazed with all the new System unlocks, I was even more amazed with the fact that Mirag Town was selected as a starter town.
In my time, that town was nothing but a ghost town where the dead roamed. To think saving that town would cause that much of a ripple.
‘Why did I even travel this far?’ I sighed as I then shook my head before looking forward to the city center.
Where the first players have begun to spawn.
