Billion Dollar Player

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: The Prison of Gods and Demons

The Achievement Ranking comprised fifty exceptional individuals, known as the top players in the history of the Bloodline Trials.

The majority of names featured in the top fifty ranking belonged to the Five Overlord Species, but there were also representatives from lesser-known species such as Triorcs, Elves, Beastman, and more who had managed to earn rankings on the list.

Raven's single-minded focus was fixed solely on one name in the ranking: his brother's name, occupying the fifth spot on the Achievement list.

Since Raven had already faced the first trial, he knew how hard it was. If he didn't have so many high tier items, he wasn't sure if he could even survive. On the other hand, his little brother managed to take the fifth rank all by himself.

As he glanced at the name, he felt a momentary sense of confusion. Meanwhile, an increasing number of people began to take notice of him.

As Raven stared at the Achievement Ranking, the other players in the resting hall observed him curiously.

Numerous players were left stunned as he was equipped with high tier gear from head to toe, which seemed improbable for a novice player. The source of his wealth remained a mystery, leaving players baffled. Despite the lack of information, the only certainty was his impressive gear.

He possessed valuable equipment that could fetch a high price if sold to the merchant. If they were successful in snatching and selling it, they would significantly increase their chances of purchasing the coveted Nameless Sword.

They didn't know how this young man had so much money that he could buy all this.

However, they speculated that he likely had even greater resources at his disposal. Regardless of the source of his wealth, the notion of acquiring it for themselves was a feat worthy of celebration.

There existed a dark room, which was beyond everyone's reach. This was the room from where everything within the Bloodline Trial could be seen. Only the Guide of the Bloodlines Trial, who was also the guardian of this place, could enter this place, along with the Mystery Merchant.

Currently, the man with the unique lizard-like tail sat on a chair, fixated on the screen showing Raven. All other screens, including those displaying the top players in the Bloodline Trial, went unnoticed by him.

"A man whose stats even I can't see. Also someone who managed to bring more money than the limit allowed. Over twenty million coins spent, huh. I wonder exactly how many he has. It's most probably related to his exclusive Skill."

The man appeared to be speaking to himself, attempting to comprehend the situation. Regrettably, despite his efforts, none of it seemed to add up or make sense.

"An Exclusive Skill that could break the rules of Hellfire without any backlash... It can only be a Ranked Skill. However, how is it possible for someone to awaken a Ranked Skill this late?"

"The strongest Ranked Skills were given to the First Awakeners from each species, according to their awakening. The later one awakened, the weaker the skill they received."

"However, for him to have a Ranked Skill, this only makes sense if he was in the first batch of Human Awakeners to receive an invitation... Like the current seven human overlords in Hellfire..."

"However, that doesn't make sense. If he Awakened so soon, why did he enter just now? And what rank could his skill be?"

It wasn't the guardian's first time seeing a person whose status couldn't be seen. In fact, when Players started coming for the first time, there were nine such players from each species... They were the first nine awakeners of their species.

As for how much of their stats he could read, that depended on their skill rank.

"Wait a minute... Now that I think about it, there were nine players from each species who received a ranked skill. However, amongst the humans that came, including Weiss, there were only eight players that had cryptic stats... That means..."

He slowly stood up, gazing at the young man on the screen. "His stats being messy wasn't a bug! Instead, it was because... He's one of the Nine Overlords who is starting late!"

His eyes shone brightly as he thought up to this point! It finally started making sense to him. Raven was coming five years late.

Upon recollection, he realized that there was something else noteworthy. During Weiss' arrival at the Bloodline Trial, he had expressed his desire to save his brother who had fallen into a coma as a result of Hellfire.

Weiss's motivations in Hellfire were solely driven by his desire to achieve success and work towards finding a solution to awaken his brother from his deep slumber.

"A brother that fell into a coma with Hellfire's appearance?" The man frowned. "At that time, I thought it was just a coincidence that his brother fell into a coma. But could that brother be... That would explain this guy's reaction upon hearing the news about his death!"

"To think that both brothers were ranked players!" He could only scratch the back of his head in amazement. "If the two had come to Hellfire at the same time, then they could've probably ruled this place! However, now..."

"It looks like my advice won't work on him. His brother died after all. If he doesn't die like his brother, then the world of Hellfire is probably going to get messy again."

"I wonder who will be able to win this guy's support to be free of this Prison? A God? A Demon? Or the Mythical Being? Things will certainly get spicy it seems."

He sat on the chair with an amused smile on his face. "I suppose it's time for me to leave the Bloodline Trials as well. I want to see what kind of journey he shall create."

He simply closed his eyes, thinking about the future. Finally, he felt that the Prison known as Hellfire which trapped Gods, Demons and Myths wasn't as boring.
