"Strongest? You and those weakling behind you? Hahahaha Your funny Hahaha I dont know how can you see through me but you are a funny child. But"
The whole room froze its like time became still as the unbearable pressure just now was an illusion. I look at the others then see Paul laying face down in the floor as he catch his breath while the others is kneeling to support themselves from sharing the same faith as him.
The old man looks like he became a divine existence as Blue light and different color orbs surround him. I clench palm into fist to stop it's trembling then focus at the old man.
"I can't just let go of your pretentious claim that you can help me so lets do what you want go save the soul of my child"
"I want to see how can you have the gal to say you can lift this burden of mine"

/Will you accept the Quest?/
Y/N
I can't help myself but be bewildered. My objective was offered to me without much resistance but it looks very different to what I have imagine. I thought we will be given E or D Quest but SSS+ where is the common sense here. Is it normal for level 1 players to perform SSS+ Quest that will change the whole Game world the answer is it's fucking impossible. Only Idiot will accept this Quest at level 1 but our situation right now is not very Good we are on some enclosed space and I think we have no other option as the old man in front of us was close to insanity and madness. Maybe I went a little overboard there I don't think the old man will snap when I just point out his burden but I realize it was insensitive and rude of me because part of me think that he is just a bunch of Data.
Hayyssssss what a pain in the ass. My plan now is perfect I am sure that we can reach level 1 and 10 first as I have this advantage against others. But this Quest is something out of my expectations so now I know to don't aim for Gold star NPC without any plan.
What to do? I make my brain function at its fullest to know what is the best course to take but before I can have a proper answer the old man speak up.
"What are you thinking of didnt you say that your party will be the strongest existence in this world? Just do it as you claim to help me"
The old man like a devil stated as he mock us I clench my fist as the sound that I don't want to hear at this moment echo then a screen appear in front of me
/The Quest has been Forced/
/You accepted the Quest/

And that is how we get in this shitty situation.
But unbeknown to me and the others the moment we step no that is not the right word the moment we are forced in the portal and then vanish. The old man that have the expression of being senile have a change of mood again as he wear now a face of gentle old man then he said.
"The prophecy of the Dragon Emperor is true the one that will revive my daughter will come in the day of the descent of Immortals, Ohhh my Elishia my beloved Elishia I miss you please come back to me"
The old man cry like a child The sound of anguish, loneliness and sadness but mix to it is a little bit sound of hope.
He remember the day his friend the Dragon Emperor was going to the cycle of reincarnation she said to him.
"Leo I am now in the end of my life"
"Yes you can go peacefully my friend"
"But I cant be atease in the Cradle of Creator when you always wear that stoic face of yours even when Im gone. And knowing how more unsociable you are than Dragons I cant rest in peace. So I will give you one last gift my friend I will gonna Prophecise Elishia's reawakening so please tell sorry for me as I cant do anything"
"But... Then I will forever never forget the gratefulness I have even in the afterlife and beyond I will always remember this my friend"
"Hahaha don't be so serious it's not just for you it's also for my conscience"
"Thanks Diana Thank you very much"
"A woman with the Cold aura of an Emperor will visit you then leave after that the 6 Stars that will rule the world will appear and someone will notice your burden you always carry, And they will be the one that will save your daughter all of this at the day the Immortals descent"
"Day of Immortals Descent? Isn't it only a Millennium from now? Then I will really see my daughter again? Diana? Diana!!!!???? "
And that is the last time I see my friend, family, companion and enemy as she scatter into dust swayed by the air.
...
