Adrian' family reached the clinic. It was a medium sized one and is most famous for helping athletes get back to top shape when they experienced an injury. The doctor here is also famed for helping young people when they experienced accidents. This was also where Adrian's parents bought the wheelchair from since the one who invented it was once a patient of the doctor of this clinic when the doctor was still a bit young. The patients of this clinic call the doctor, Dr. Happy because he is always has a smile and always encourages his patients which is why his family is very proud of him.
" Good morning Dr. Happy. We are here for Adrian's appointment." Adrian's mother said.
" You are just in time. Please escort him so that we could scan his brain activity and we will see from there" Dr. Happy said while smiling.
Adrian likes Dr. Happy very much because he was one of the reasons that he managed to persuade his parents in buying him a game pod even though it was the game pod with the lowest possible assimilation rate of 90%. Game pods that have 99% assimilation rate are very pricey and is mainly used by the high rankers because of the steep price point. Adrian also dreams to own one of these game pods but he should focus on his current goal in increasing his in game time and try to be independent in his game time per se.
Due to the advancement of technology, it was now easier to conduct brain scans more effectively and harmlessly which is the reason sicknesses in the brain that are previously un-diagnosed and cannot be treated are now easily treated.
Dr. Happy then proceeded to tell Adrian's parents the news of the tests after Adrian has relaxed a bit and returned to his parents side. Although they know that Adrian is in good condition, parents always worry about their child regardless if the child was already an adult which is why Adrian's parents have worry plastered in their face.
" You do not have to worry and breathe a sigh of relief. According to Adrian's brain scan, his brain is now returning back to normal. It seems him playing the game of Pandemonium has sparked or ignited the parts of his brain to drive itself. It has been proven that games not only increases the child's cognitive ability but also serves as an exercise for the brain of sorts. Still, everything good must come in moderation but I believe that the game therapy is proving rather potent because results like these usually come by the third session. If this continues it would only be a month before Adrian could fully walk again. I recommend Adrian now start practicing to walk at least for 1 hour each day to further increase his recovery time but do not strain him if it proves difficult it is good to rest and try another day." Dr. Happy said with a calm tone full of optimism.
Adrian and his family returned back home and his father installed the hand rail that would serve as Adrian's guide to walk. Still Adrian turned his wheelchair and faced them.
" So.... what is the verdict?" Adrian asked with optimism because Dr. Happy's speech made him even more glad. His parents once again looked at each other before his father spoke. It seems they finally reached a conclusion.
" We will allow you to play for 12 hours a day but you must at least leave the game pod every 4 hours and not skip meals. Health is very important especially in you case. We have already opened a bank account in your name and will be accessible through your haloswatch which you just need to log in this account" His father said while handing him a note.
His mother continued " But of course this will not be permanent if you break your promise and become irresponsible we would return back to the status quo."
Adrian whole-heartedly agreed and thanked his parents and urged them to hug him because he cannot initiate it himself. He told them he would be in his room and if they need something just send it to his haloswatch. Adrian inserted his haloswatch into his game pod and activated his bank account and directly converted 200 of his gold coins to cash which is now in the price of 1.5 dollars a coin. Adrian earned 300 dollars in his bank just like that. He hopes everything would go smoothly. Adrian now logged back to the game.
Adrian appeared back in the Paradox Planes and re-summoned his soulbounds.
" Just wait guys we would have a new companion joining us." Adrian said while he pulled the Random Epic Soulstone in his inventory.
Item: Random Epic Soulstone
Description: Activating this stone will generate a soulstone of a random creature from Pandemonium's various worlds. Epic soulstones only assures that the creature would have to at most two evolutions.
Adrian's eye widen because of the realization. It seems that common and uncommon creatures can have one evolution and some rare creatures that can evolve twice. Epic creatures could evolve twice. Legendary creatures could probably evolve up to the ultimate evolution but would probably take a lot of evolution material to do. Mythical and the rumored transcendent tier creature could achieve ultimate evolution. There maybe more about creature evolution than meets the eye. There are a sub job that is famous for raising pets which is called Breeders. Breeders not only take care of your pets or soulbounds for a certain amount of time but they can also breed certain pets together. Just before Adrian triggered the Random Epic Soulstone, he remembered something that could help him have a stronger soulbound.
Item: Upgrade Stone
Tier: Mythical
Effect: Upgrades the tier of any item to the tier of this stone. Consumable.
Description: A strange black stone that is said to have come from the world of the gods and was said to be bestowed by the Goddess of Magic to the people to strengthen the items that is present in the mortal realm.
Adrian was planning on using it on one of his items but decided that a soulbound would have a better investment than an item. This was a reward he got from the twin gods which means he would get greater rewards further in the quest-line. Adrian did not hesitate to use the upgrade stone and he was sure he will not regret it by the description of the new item.
Item: Random Mythical Soulstone
Tier: Mythical
Description: Activating this stone will generate a soulstone of a random creature from Pandemonium's various worlds. Mythical soulstones assures that the creature would have its Ultimate Evolution.
[Do you want to use the Random Mythical Soulstone?Yes or No]
As the stone hovered in the air and twirled, Adrian was praying to RNGsus that he would get a tank type creature or a support creature. A healer would not be bad. After a few seconds he finally heard a system prompt.
[Player Equinox has acquired Albino Magpie(Sarimanok Strain) Soulstone]
After he heard the notification, Adrian the viewed the soulstone's description.
Item: Albino Magpie(Sarimanok Strain)
Tier: Mythical
Description: A magpie that was transformed by the peculiarities of its bloodline. Able to use healing magic that is said that only Saints could use.
Adrian was very thankful that he got a healer but he would not mind a tanker but nevertheless he was very happy. What do you expect from a gamer who is also a teenager. As soon as he was finished reading the item description, he started drawing the summoning circle to revive the creature. He placed the soulstone at the middle of the magic circle and started the chant.
" Like that of the sun rises on the east and sets on the west. The life of one is equivalent to one. I call upon the soul of this valiant creature to serve me and become my herald. I , Equinox, call upon you to this mortal realm to protect me and I promise to protect you. I enter this contract with you not as a master but as an equal."
Adrian said this chant with clear embarrassment because it is like something a chuunibyou would chant. As soon as the chant was spoken, an unidentified bird's cry was heard throughout the Paradox Planes that shook the soul of each inhabitant. Ascalor heard the cry and muttered " It must be that energetic twerp again".
From the magic circle, a cute little magpie appeared contrary to the soul shaking monster cry that everyone has heard. The magpie is bit big compared to magpies on earth as it's standing height is five inches. It has white feathers and black beady eyes. Its cuteness could melt the heart of a tyrant. When the magpie saw Adrian it chirped with joy and perched itself in his shoulders. Sirius and Kanlaon looked jealous of the magpie with the magpie puffing its chest out as if it won something. Adrian found the interaction hilarious and patted the head of his soulbounds when the system prompt was heard.
[Please give a name to your Albino Magpie soulbound]
"Saena" Adrian proudly said. "You would be called Saena" as he cradled his new companion.
