“Ooh, this is a nice spear,” Ning said as he looked at his new spear. “Thank you.”
“No problem, lad,” the demon blacksmith said. “That’s the least I could do to help you after what you’ve done for me. Although, I hope you will put it to good use tomorrow.”
Ning looked at the spear. “I will beat the biggest and baddest with this, I promise,” he said.
“Hahaha! Go on then, I got work to do.” The blacksmith turned around to do his job, so Ning walked away.
‘Tomorrow huh?’ he thought.
The war that everyone was getting hyped up about was right around the corner and Ning was intending to take part in it.
From what he had heard, the small skirmishes in the north were already a good place for people to earn their experience, but since the war was going to be big, Ning could only imagine how much experience he himself would get.
‘I should be able to, at least after I complete this quest, right?’ he wondered. ‘The battlefield should be the prime location for me to do so.’
Ning had reached Level 150 in the last few days and his class quest was here. However, unlike the previous time, his class quest this time was quite unique.
[Class Quest
You are the master of Fate, and as such you should be able to alter the fate of not just yours, but others as well.
Interfere and change the fate of 10 different beings for the better.
Fates changed: 0/10]
Ning found a few carriages outside the keep that was taking people to where the demons had set up tents for the war and got on it.
Before he knew it, he was on his way to the war.
Along the way, Ning thought about his class quest.
‘Changing fate… how exactly do I do that though? In the first place, how can I even tell what fate a person has?’ he thought. He didn’t think fate was as easy to see in his current situation as everyone around him was player.
There was practically no way the game knew the fate of these very players. Which was one of the reasons why Ning was going to the battlefield to find people whose death were more than confirmed and save them.
That way, he could have their fates changed.
It took half a day for the carriage to reach the location of the war site and Ning quickly found himself a place to stay for the time being.
He sat there, thinking exactly who he could help with their fates. He had taken a look at the place and there were quite a few NPCs whose fates must’ve been set already.
‘Can I change that?’ he wondered. He most likely could, but then he needed to know what would happen to them.
“Wait a second, wasn’t there a card that helped me see things in the future?” Ning thought as he pulled out a card.
[Clairvoyance: Helps the user see far in the distance. Gain temporary, unobstructed vision of a location or individual within 10 kilometers. The vision lasts 10 minutes.]
“Wait no, that’s wrong,” Ning thought. He had pulled out the wrong card by accident due to the wording on the description.
He pulled another card. “There it is,” he thought.
[Future Sight: Helps the user see far in the future. Gain a bird’s eye view of the future exactly 1 day from now.]
“Hmm… I wonder how the game could possibly know what would happen tomorrow. Is it perhaps set in stone?” he thought. “Activate!”
Ning lost his sense of sight as he was teleported into a dreamesque realm where he was in the sky, looking down at the battlefield.
Ning saw the battlefield with clear eyes and the destruction that lay there. So many dead people, both demons and angels, could be seen sprawled on the ground.
He saw the people that still stood that fought. However, what surprised Ning the most was the fact that everyone was fighting a single enemy.
A woman.
The woman had long black hair that flowed in the wing, stark white clothes that did not get dirtied at all, and finally, the most curious part of her physique, wings.
Every player had wings, so that wasn’t very amusing. What was unique about her wings was that her left wing was an angel wing with feathers of various different colors, and her right wing was that of a demon, which also seemed to be an amalgamation of various different types.
One of those very segments of wings was one that Ning remembered very clearly. It was a clear patch of wing that was mostly colored by the white light that shined through the fractures of what seemed like glasses.
In those shards of glasses were visions of the future, all the different possibilities.
‘Trenzelgor’s wings?’ Ning looked with surprise. ‘How did she get Trenzelgor’s wings?’
Ning was a little confused as well. ‘Who is this woman?’ he thought as he watched the battle.
The girl used skills and abilities that shocked him to his deepest core. Each one of her attacks destroyed parts of everyone on the battlefield. Each time she used a skill, someone died.
More and more deaths piled up on the battlefield, both demons, and angels, until the woman was the only person that lived.
Then, the woman slowly turned to look up, looking straight toward Ning.
For a moment, Ning’s eyes went wide. He couldn’t believe that he knew this person. After all, the woman was Gariin, the female leader of the humans that had left the continent in the south.
