Chapter 98: Chapter 98 - Deity Bane Quest



"Kill deities? Not just one, but several of them?" Broken reiterated King Elandorr's words, his face painted with confusion and disbelief.

King Elandorr, appearing both drowsy and weary, remained silent, not providing any immediate answer.

"Wait a minute. The fact that you were once the Champion of Sloth is already surprising enough. Meeting you here in the Trial Domain by sheer chance was another shock. But then you ask me to kill deities? Which deities? And why me? What makes you believe I can accomplish such a task? Even in your death, why place this burden upon another? Is your demise connected to this mission... Your Majesty?" Broken bombarded him with a flurry of anxious questions.

With a heavy sigh, Elandorr listened to the desperate queries. "Take your time," he said gently. He paused, gathering his thoughts before speaking again. "I know this is overwhelming and confusing for you. Allow me to explain everything to you."

"Please, tell me more..." Broken urged, momentarily forgetting the royal status of his conversation partner.

Elandorr hesitated, weighing his words carefully. He sighed deeply once more before admitting, "I can't seem to simplify it for you, despite my best attempts."

Broken's eyes narrowed, and his jaw tightened as he focused intently on the figure before him. "Let's approach it this way," Elandorr suggested. "I can give you a series of quests. Each task will come with significant rewards. Complete each quest in turn, and by the end, you'll have gained enough knowledge and resources to make an informed decision about your next steps. I also hope that completing these quests will strengthen you. It's genuinely troubling to see a Champion of Sloth as weak as you."

"And if I refuse to take on these quests?" Broken asked hesitantly. "What consequences might I face?"

"Refusing my offer won't lead to anything pleasant. We are both blessed by Goddess Akidia, after all. Let's leave it at that. So please, do not reject my offer."

What Broken needed now was a moment to reflect. After all, being handed such a monumental quest while still at a low level and ill-prepared suggested facing incredibly powerful entities in Yunatea soon. If this burdened his progress, it could certainly complicate his journey.

Yet, the glittering allure of the rewards promised by King Elandorr flickered in his thoughts. Such opportunities were the stuff of legends among players in Immortal Legacy, potentially rich with untold value. His pulse quickened in line with the surging excitement and anticipation of what possibilities lay ahead.

"So, I have the freedom to choose the outcome of these chain quests?" Broken asked, his voice cutting through the stillness.

Elandorr released a heavy breath. "Yes, the final decision rests with you. Whether you follow the path I've laid out or forge your own-it's your choice. At the very least, this burden of mine won't languish in this Trial Domain forever. I'm too weary to continue. Yes, I may already be dead, but even this fragment of my soul is weary."

[Deity Bane Quest I - Take Possession of The Sword of Dissidia]

[Rating: S]

[The Sword of Dissidia is an ancient artifact with untold power. It is said that only the ruler of the Dissidia Kingdom has the right to own and wield it.

Elandorr, the former ruler of the kingdom, has chosen you to take possession of the sword. This is a great honor, but it also carries a great responsibility. To take up this quest, you must be someone of great courage, strength, and integrity.]

[Clear Conditions: Become the rightful holder of The Sword of Dissidia.]

[Clear Rewards: Rewards will depend on performance and results.]

[Quest Failure: Consequences will be determined at a later stage.]

Broken carefully read through the details of the quest from Elandorr, absorbing every bit of information. An S-rating! It was an incredibly rare and valuable quest, promising outstanding rewards. However, the specifics of the rewards and penalties for failure were vaguely described, revealing the laziness of its creator in providing details.

"The Sword of Dissidia!" he murmured to himself.

The Sword of Dissidia was renowned for its immense power and greatness, appearing in countless myths and legends. It was said that the deity himself had awarded this sword to the Kingdom of Dissidia, bestowing upon them unparalleled strength and honor, elevating them to be one of the mightiest kingdoms on the South Continent.

But as he mulled over this, a daunting realization struck him. Claiming the sword could mean assuming the throne of Dissidia. He glanced up at Elandorr, the former king.

"Wait... Are you suggesting that I should rebel, overthrow the current ruler, and seize control of the kingdom?" he asked.

He took a deep breath, fully grasping the scale of this quest. An S-rating! Very few, if any, players had ever been entrusted with such a high-stakes mission, one that would typically require a significant investment to obtain.

Elandorr stared back at him. "I don't care how you go about it. You can kill the current King, marry his daughter, and take the throne, or you can stage a rebellion and overthrow the kingdom. The choice is yours."

"You speak of killing your own descendants so casually," Broken said softly, almost to himself.

"I understand it may be a difficult decision," Elandorr replied, "but if it's not taken seriously, there will be more victims in the future. The responsibility rests entirely with you."

Broken clicked his tongue in contemplation, his heartbeat accelerating as he envisioned the extraordinary feats he could achieve if he succeeded in this quest. "This is incredibly challenging, but thrilling at the same time!"

"Good," Elandorr said, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "I'm glad to hear your answer."

"But then," Broken continued with a solemn air, "this isn't a simple task. I need to understand why it's crucial to complete this quest. I also need every bit of knowledge and strength required to see it through."

He posed his question again. "Will you provide assistance to complete this quest? Maybe you have some treasures or artifacts stashed away? Or perhaps some extra power you can lend me? Anything that might help."

Elandorr clicked his tongue in disapproval and took a deep breath. "Thus far, I can't tell if you are the Champion of Sloth or the Champion of Greed," he said, eyes narrowing as he

scrutinized Broken's face.

Broken couldn't help but grin at Elandorr's words. "Yeah, well, this is a huge task," he admitted. "Just look at the title. It's no joke-The Deity Bane Quest. Surely, you wouldn't send me into the fray without proper equipment, right?"

"Agreed," Elandorr muttered. "Don't worry, I have resources and support that you can

utilize."

A hopeful glimmer appeared in Broken's eyes at the mention of 'resources'.

"For that reason," Elandorr continued, "I have another quest for you."

"Another quest?" Broken echoed in surprise. "Not 'resources'?"

Elandorr chuckled at the question, a sly smile curling his lips. "Oh no," he replied. "This quest will be much more... more entertaining than anything you've encountered before."

"Entertaining?"
