Fortress Inner City of Stormhollow Bastion, Transportation Hub
Fortress City of Stormhollow Bastion <-> City of Nova Asta
After spending five days in the Fortress City of Stormhollow Bastion and experiencing the Infinity Room of Echoing Ascendance, Accel finally decided to return home. With only five days left before Christmas, he planned to spend the holiday with his parents and two younger brothers in Nova Asta. Boarding the high-speed train from the Fortress City Terminal, he settled into his seat, exhaustion catching up with him. As the train sped toward his home city, he drifted into a deep sleep.
The Inner City of Nova Asta, Transportation Hub, Terminal #5, Noon
The loud chime of the arrival announcement stirred Accel from his slumber. The train had reached the Nova Asta Terminal, and the bustling crowds of travelers filled the platform. Stepping out, he took a deep breath, savoring the familiar scent of home.
During his five days inside the Infinity Room of Echoing Ascendance, Accel had reached Room 50, pushing himself to his limits before deciding to stop. He saved his waypoint, ensuring he could continue from where he left off on his next visit. Using the Ascendance Coins he had earned, he had purchased a wealth of new resources, equipment, and enchantments—preparing for the challenges ahead. However, for now, he set all thoughts of adventure aside. It was time to take a break.
As he walked through the streets of Nova Asta, he couldn't help but feel a sense of calm. The festive decorations were already being put up in preparation for Christmas, and the air was filled with the warmth of the holiday spirit.
Homecoming & Family Reunion
Upon arriving at his home, Accel was greeted by the joyful embrace of his family. His mother, father, and two younger brothers had been eagerly awaiting his return. His mother immediately fussed over him, ensuring he ate a hearty meal, while his father asked about his experiences in Stormhollow Bastion. His younger brothers, full of energy, bombarded him with questions about his adventures.
For the next few days, Accel set aside his usual adventuring routine. He spent time with his family, helped with holiday preparations, and took the rare opportunity to relax. Yet, in the background, his Archivist System was undergoing a major transformation.
Archivist System Promotion
A sudden system notification interrupted his quiet evening.
