Chapter 220: Back to The Real World
"I’m back... huh..." Lyan muttered to himself, scratching his head as he eyed his still-steaming cup of coffee. The gargoyle beside him, chomping happily on bread, seemed entirely unperturbed by his return.
"Man, that was... Something," Lyan continued, shaking his head in disbelief. "Never thought I’d run into ’them’ again after kicking Tiamat’s butt."
He took a sip of his coffee, making a face at its bitter taste. "Well, if anything can wake me up, it’s that."
But as he sat there, lost in thought, he couldn’t shake the feeling that there was still so much left to figure out. "Seems like there’s always more stuff to uncover and mull over," he muttered, running a hand through his hair.
He glanced at the gargoyle again, a small smile playing at the corners of his lips. "You’re taking this all in stride, huh? Wish I could be as chill as you."
With a sigh, he leaned back in his chair, trying to make sense of the whirlwind of emotions swirling inside him. But soon enough, a smirk tugged at his lips. "Well, I guess this spices things up a bit," he said to the empty room, preparing himself for whatever came next.
"Oh! But first, let’s check out the reward from that quest!" (Lyan)
With a mere thought, a blue screen materialized before Lyan, displaying his quest completion reward.
"Oh, this looks interesting..." (Lyan)
The screen announced the completion of the hidden quest:
[Congratulations on completing the hidden quest! Your reward: -Gryphon-winged sword]
