Snarflan leads Adam through tunnels within the warehouses and Adam soon find himself in a small office.
A rare window shows a view of the warehouse district.
Adam sees many short men working below and quickly realize that they are likely all gnomes in disguise.
Snarflan goes beside the small office and gestures for Adam to enter the hole inside the table.
"Go inside."
The moment, Adam entered the hole, he was standing elsewhere. 'What a complicated society!'
The stuff-filled room disappears overhead, making him feel the chilly wind of the winter season.
'Huh, there are ice elves!'
Hundreds of ice elves cover the walkways, standing between the trunks. Some carry swords and many carry bows.
'Huh? Why a half-ice elf is coming to greet me!'
Adam's greeter was a middle-aged man, clean-shaven and more solidly built than the ice elves.
He was well-dressed and his black hair has white slivers and is sharply cut to his shoulders.
"Greetings," he says in a very deep voice. "I am Naistalan Mubashair. I am a cleric of the Light Bringing Goddess Auriel and I have been sent to greet you in the name of our queen."
"Hello, I am Adam Crystal, Guildmaster of Magitaricks. I came here..."
"Wait, Mr Adam. I have already received divination from our goddess, saying a young man will come here."
"But, we can't join you as we please. You have to accomplish a mission before we can serve under you."
"Oh?"
"Very well, come with me."
After nearly an hour of walking, a door is opened and Adam finds himself self outside once again.
He points across a mountain valley that looks to have been trampled with small hoofprints.
"This is where our sheep graze when the snows go away. About a mile in that direction, a giant has made himself a home some thousands of years ago."
"The pesky creature is enormous and he's eating sheep for more thousand years. He's also killed several of our best warriors."
"If you can remove him, you will remove our eternal curse and we will be glad to serve under you, in addition to that you will also get to rule over the gnomes, the mater of illusionists."
The cleric grins at Adam's bravado as he marches across the snowy field.
After an hour of walking, Adam sees a large blazing fire. Several trees have been knocked over to fuel the inferno.
The giant sitting in front of the fire gets to his feet as he approaches.
The creature is easily 17 feet tall and wears only rags, despite the cold weather.
'He can even confront and defeat Colosson with ease!'
Adam can see grease stains across his chest from the many sheep he has feasted upon.
In his hand, he holds an enormous wooden club that is as tall as he was
"I mean no harm!"
The giant cocks his enormous head to the side as he struggles to comprehend what Adam said.
Adam wasn't sure if he is going to answer, but then, words form in his big mouth.
"Yummy sheep. Kraton eat."
"Karting, this is Ice elves land. These sheep belong to them."
"Ice elves yummy too."
The giant swung his club as he took a big step towards Adam.
'Sigh...it's a pity...'
"Time to die, giant."
[LvL: 65]
The giant grins at Adam, either not understanding your words or not caring.
Adam steps inside the giant's reach as he takes a clumsy swing at him.
Adam, then he slashes him across the stomach. By the time he tries to strike him with his club, Adam has driven his sword into his heart.
The giant gurgles as he falls dead beside his campfire.
Adam returns to the cleric as he leads him palace hall where Queen Karla awaits.
"I thank you very much, for removing the curse upon us, Lord Adam."
The queen dethrones her crown and kneels before Adam, and she hands over an exquisite Ice plate.
"Please hear this subordinate's request."
"Mhm tell me."
"Can you spend a few hours here while we prepare to leave our homelands and create the teleportation circle fir our return?"
"Okay"
The Ice elves are as excited as children when Adam lets their request proceed.
Their eyes twinkle with pleasure as they happily tour him around their territory.
To his surprise, there were also mines in their territory, and unnaturally the set of ice elves who lived here behaved like dwarfs.
The strange ice elves lead him down into the narrow shafts.
Adam quickly loses all sense of direction, but his companions have no trouble leading the way.
They show him veins of iron, gold and silver, as well as pockets of every kind of gem he could think of.
Adam realizes that they will happily chat all day about the mining as proudly as new parents speak of their baby.
With careful supervision, they let you swing the pickaxe. It was difficult at first, but after a few minutes, Adam enjoyed the time he spend with these strange ice elves.
As the few hours come to an end, the whole society abandoned the land and teleported to Tornassa forest.
------
Adam logged off the [Horizon] after adding the dark elves and Ice levels to his army.
"Bzz..."
He swiped up the message from the holographic screen and checked on it.
[We have found, Amelia. She was caught in the sweep of slum friends, I don't know how they got a foothold on America. But, this is a serious matter.
-Archangels]
"Mhm...So, it's slum fiends."
Adam's gaze become complicated but the next moment, it turned into a normal one.
'There is only less than one day, after that slum friend or whatsoever...all are gonna disappear for good...'
As his thoughts ran in his mind...Adam started to pack the things clothes, bags, trekking things.
He also started to pack up the things of his sister and utensils, after finishing packing.
Adam stuffed the things into his car and came back last time to pick up his diary which he noted all the important events.
'FIVR...helmet...'
A tiny but sorrow-filled smile appeared on his face, 'If one day...one day I bought back this world to peaceful days...I will create a more advanced game than [Horizon]'
He placed the FIVR helmet in the Dustbin and exited the house.
'Goodbye, Mom and dad...'
As he thought and bid farewell to his parents, Adam started the classy car and drove it towards his destination.
'It's only the start! I will make sure to survive this time!'
