Chapter 428 The Inn Incident [Pt 4]

The journey back upstairs was less awkward.

Eric and Adonis discussed what the Adventurers spoke up, taking turns to examine what was true, false, or exaggerated in the entire conversation.

Adonis personally didn't care too much for that, as he told Eric not to take the whole thing too seriously. They ended up talking to a few Adventurers and made some connections whole having fun.

That was all that mattered.

Eric couldn't help but agree with Adonis. They finally retuned to the room, and they found all the students on the bed, all of them unable to sleep.

They were already dressed casually and had undone their disguise.

Many would question the intelligence behind such a move, considering they could be spied upon when inside the room. However, there was no sign of Image-Capturing Magic or Technology around.

Adventurers enjoyed their privacy and freedom, and since they did some pretty private things in the inns they stayed at, establishment owners knew better than to install something that would intrude on their private business.

Such Magic was rare too, and incredibly expensive.

"You're all still awake? What's the matter?" Adonis looked around to observe the faces of his classmates.

"You all look gloomy."

It was no surprise that they were this way, but Alicia decided to explain, all while staying close to her pet rabbit, Snow.

"Well, we have a lot on our minds, you know?"

For one, they had to pass the Adventurer Test the next day if they wanted to be recognized as such. Despite being assured that it wouldn't be a big deal, most of the students couldn't help but look forward to it.

However, the major thing that that held people awake was quite obvious.

"Seems weird that we've been left here all alone without adult supervision." Alicia said with a slight smile.

It felt like going on a field trip without the school staff, or like traveling abroad without knowing anyone at all upon arrival.

Most of the students still had the jitters that accompanied such experiences.

There was no way sleep could come.

"Well, I understand how overwhelming this entire situation is..." Adonis walked into the closet, coming back out in the blink of an eye in a casual outfit.

No one could explain how he was able to change so quickly, so they just pretended not to have seen anything.

"But we'll be fine. We have each other, and we're plenty strong and mature now." Adonis gave his signature charismatic smile and beamed brightly.

It was in the original timeline.

'They were the ones responsible for the Adventurers City Massacre...' Adonis' thought trailed.

There was no conclusive evidence on that, but they were the most likely suspects based on all the events that aligned up until the Massacre.

Back then, the Dead Zone—a haven for Monsters—began to show strange activity, and it unleashed an impossible horde of Monsters on the city of adventures.

The result? The massacre ended up wiping out nearly ninety percent of the Adventurers in the City, leaving only the ones who were either strong enough to survive, or cowardly enough to run.

By the time Adonis and his classmates were dispatched to help the City, it was already too late.

The place was in ruins—an empty shell of what it once was.

'It was a bloody sight. I still remember it so vividly...'

The worst part about the incident was that the Adventurers City had encountered yet another tragedy before this massacre.

The Grand Calamity Class Dungeon.

'The Conquest ended in failure, and a lot of the Adventurers who went in ended up losing their lives.'

Among those who didn't, had to retire from Adventuring due to too much trauma or irreversible damage caused by Miasma Poisoning.

That in itself was horrible.

Of course, Adonis hoped to change that horrid future, which was why he and his classmates were here in the first place.

'People will still die. I can't help that.' Adonis sighed. He wished there was a better way to go about the situation, but his limited experience couldn't afford him to make any radical changes.

Still...

'I'll save as many people as I can!'
