Rebirth: Over the Horizon

"You did better than I imagined kid haha.." the old man said as he laughed out loudly.

'Even though he says this, he is still haughty as ever'

"Haha...I was worried, that no one will be able to become my successor"

"Hey, Hey...I can't become your successor and live in this tower for the rest of my life...don't ever think about it"

"What are you saying, kid...I can still live for many centuries, I mean I will hand over my treasure and inheritance"

"Then, please hand over it quickly, I still have many things to do" Adam urged.

'Seriously, What is this old man thinking, I am also running on short of time' Adam mumbled in his heart and looked at the old man annoyedly.

"You look like you're annoyed kid, but You have first listened to the story... about this old man... before receiving my treasure and my inheritance"

"What!? See here old man, I really don't have time for that so, please understand"

"Is that SO!?" he glared at Adam fiercely.

Adam's heart froze 'What's happening...huh...I can't see anything the whole world turned black.

It's as if the whole world was devoured by darkness.

'Huff... huff... I can't see anything... It's only darkness.. how much time has passed... it seems like whole eternity'

'I can't remember who I am...What the fu*k is this'

There was nothing but darkness, Adam's mind was already at the state of break-down.

Suddenly, A voice woke him up from this madness.

"Kid... Now do you understand, who I am haha"

'Uh... yes, my name is Adam crystal'

As soon as he remembered his name everything returned back to normal.

Adam's body was drenched with sweat, his breathing was rapid, he had the eyes of a clearly terrified person.

'What was that... Something definitely happened... It was like my existence itself was fading out' Adam took a long time to recover from the shock.

He slowly raised his head and looked up to the old man while clutching his chest.

"What kid? You can't even handle 20% of my power"

'Wh...What that is only 20% of his power'

He slowly looked at his HP and MP it was full, but there was some uneasiness in his heart.

'Nothing good will happen, if I kept thinking about it, I should probably ask him'

"Is... Is that truly dark magic"

"No, I am the apostle of Erebus, I inherited that skill from Erebus, the god of darkness"

'Ha...Now I remember

[Horizon] had one more feature it was God's blessing and apostle.

A player can only become the apostle of 3 Gods or Goddesses.

But.

A player can receive blessings from as many gods as possible.

Erebus was a Greek god of darkness, he was born in chaos. Had absolute authority over darkness.

'To think that this old man was an apostle of Erebus'

Adam was very stunned, in his previous life he doesn't even get a chance to meet a player who was an apostle.

But.

Joseph Lewis, the guild master of the Sunshine Guild, is a name that everyone remembers. When everyone was putting in a lot of effort to go to the next level.

He was already an apostle of the two gods, Helios, the sun god, and Hephaestus, the deity of fire.

He started playing [Horizon] three weeks later than the other gamers, for God's sake.

When the [Horizon] fell on Earth, he became an apostle of Theia, the goddess of light.

You could wonder why there's just one apostle. Why can't the rest of us become apostles?

The first is that each God can only have one apostle, and the second is that each player must pass the god or goddesses' trial.

However, the blessings are available to all players.

But every player can receive the blessings of God or Goddesses. That is only if they attract the upper entities.

"So, Kid can you listen to my story now?"

"Y-Yes"

"Before some centuries, there was no 7th floor in the magic tower! There was no dark magic in Aconia"

"Humans can't even use dark magic, they were constantly assaulted by demons"

"Dark magic is powerful magic which is on par with fire and ice"

"Human kingdom faced a huge threat, at that time an old vampire came to Aconia"

I am willing to teach dark magic to you humans, but in the process, many of you may die, so those who are willing can follow me.

"That's what he said, I was a youngster at that time, I know that if it goes on like this our kingdom will be destroyed"

"So me and my 3 friends joined him as his disciples"

"There were a totally of 745 humans including me and my friends"

"283 people died before we can even reach his palace"

"I learned dark magic from him for 12 years, at last, there were only 93 humans reminded"

"For a vampire, it was just 12 years, but to me, it was my prime time fortunately I came to know that a creatures life can be extended but the number of the magic circle it had"

"The last thing was he forced as to take the trial of Erebus and Hecate"

"I can vaguely remember what happened in the trial but there were only 17 humans who survived the trial and I was the only one who becomes the apostle of Erebus"

"My only remaining friend also perished in the trial"

"I killed the vampire and grabbed the map where the temple of Hecate is located"

"I came to Aconia and fought alongside the humans and rescued the kingdom from demons"

"Your reward is that you can become the apostle of Erebus"

"Then..."

"Don't worry about me, once you passed the trial and become an apostle, I will automatically be relieved from my duties"

"Hahaha...So, Say kid? Do you wish to take the trial"

[You have received the opportunity to become an apostle of Erebus, Please choose wisely you can only become an apostle of 3 Gods or Goddesses]

[Yes/No]

'This is a rare opportunity, can I succeed in the trial, Can I become an apostle of Erebus or it will be in vain...'

Adam started to think as he did before his rebirth, useless worries.

'Hahaha...What am I doing!? I promised myself to not think like this..."

A deep smirk appeared on Adam's face. "Yes"

"Hahaha...Good kid! Don't let me down"

All of sudden a portal with enormous dark energy appeared behind Adam and sucked him instantly.

But, Strangely he didn't go to the trial place, he was in the midst of billions of players.

'Isn't this place...where I first created my character'
