Chapter 637 - Visitor
Adrian could not believe what he read about the patch notes regarding summoners. He can no longer summon all of his soulbounds for battle. He can now only summon a maximum of three every battle which meant that he needed to think of combinations compared to just using quantity.
"The good thing is that they may revert these changes when they see that the summoners are suffering. My job class did too well when it came to the battle with the dark god as summoners raked up the contribution points." Adrian thought.
It has been established back then that summoners grow slower in exchange for the wider variety of attacks that their soulbound can do. The good thing is that the restriction is only restricted for battle-oriented play which meant that one can still have all their soulbounds out inside of the city.
The buffs given to the summoner by the soulbounds is also a great mechanic to supplement the lack of soulbounds. It meant that three buffs can be placed on all of the summoner and soulbounds if the summoner is intelligent enough. They might have closed the quantity strategy, but they also gave birth to a new one.
The restriction to summon the soulbounds are also lifted as soulbounds can now be sealed during battle and summoned during battle. The endless array of new strategies came flooding inside of Adrian\'s head as he thought of a strategy to battle enemies.
[Parent Notification: Son, you have a guest waiting for you downstairs. He says that he is the Asia Branch Manager for Atlas Inc.]
[Parent Notification: Your father has verified the identity of the man and he is indeed from Atlas Inc.]
Adrian immediately logged out upon seeing the notification. He never thought that the branch manager will immediately arrive as he thought that it would take at least a week for the branch manager to arrive. It seems that Adrian has shrugged off the urgent tag in the email that he received.
The Asia Branch Manager Rudra is from India, but he is proficient in almost all of the Asian languages ue to the nature of his work. He is also very well known in the circle of businessmen as he is the face of Atlas Inc. in Asia.
The Asia Branch Manager Rudra noticed that Adrian is using a walking aid in order to walk. He also noticed that the young man is not that different from his in-game avatar which is already handsome but to think that the image of the young man is almost a reflection.
Some people that play Pandemonium change their appearance in order to become more attractive to the public eye. He actually thought that the famous \'Demon\' player would be the same, but he is shocked that there is not much difference other than the horns and the hair.
"You have called for me, Asia Branch Manager Rudra?" Adrian asked as he already did partial research on the branch manager when he received the email.
"Oh! You know my name already. It is such a pleasure for the \'Demon\' to actually know my name." The Asia Branch Manager Rudra stated as he got snapped out from his deep thought.
"I have already read the email that you have sent me, and you seem to want me to do this particular event in the Pandelympics?" Adrian asked as he already read some of the email that is heavily marked as confidential. He could not even share the email to other recipients as if something is blocking him from doing so.
"You are correct in assuming that as we want you to participate as the King in event called \'Advent of the King\' that we have thought of." Asia Branch Manager Rudra stated.
"This King character…what am I going to do if I do accept the burden of this responsibility? I mean, I know that I am not going to be some lofty king just sitting on his throne." Adrian asked as he too is interested because of the rewards that he will be given upon accepting and even more rewards for defeating players.
"Of course, we already have set you the incentives. One legendary material upon accepting our proposition then One mythical material for every five players that you defeat." Asia Branch Manager Rudra stated as he is sure that Adrian will definitely accept the proposal.
"I think my son needs better compensation compared to the already existing one. Seeing that a Asia Branch Manager Rudra came himself into our house means that the matter is of the utmost importance. I want you to double everything that my son will get, and he will accept the proposal." Adrian\'s father stated as his business mode suddenly flared up.
Asia Branch Manager Rudra started to go back and forth with Adrian\'s father about the compensation. Asia Branch Manager Rudra became so nervous that he started to sweat despite the air conditioner in the house being on full blast. He had never met such an assertive person except for the CEO of Atlas Inc himself.
"The best that I can do is the promised rewards that has already been sent to you. We will also cover the air fare of your family when you come to the states plus the accommodation will be no less a 5-star hotel. The proceeds from the videos for the \'Advent of the King\' will also be owned by Adrian by about 60%." Asia Branch Manager Rudra stated as he already exhausted all his cards.
"We accept the conditions. I already printed out the contract while you were talking. Please sign here." Richard, Adrian\'s father, stated as he let Mina fetch the contract that is just printed.
Asia Branch Manager Rudra signed the paper in a hurry and excused himself after Adrian also signed the paper. He felt that he will not be able to stay long in that house if he stayed for dinner that they offered. He might as well pass out from the invisible pressure that the Demon\'s father is exuding.
"I do not know if I should applaud or be ashamed that you managed to chase out an important person, dad.." Adrian stated as he started to think of a theme for his \'Advent of the King\' event.
