Athanor Online: Monarch of War

Reno Explanation

A young man sits in a coffee cafe that is much favored by young people as a place to hang out. It's Sunday, a holiday that many crave. Naturally, this coffee cafe has been visited by many young people to socialize. Same with Diaz.

Diaz with her casual dress look sat on one of the chairs. Its appearance is quite simple for some people, but its regularly formed body shape makes it quite an attraction for women there.

Diaz played her phone a little to just throw bored because she was waiting for someone. He opened Athanor Guest to check his account.

Honestly Diaz's income selling a wide variety of equipment and potions was already at a point that was more than enough. Diaz also achieved quite a glorious feat for a merchant. Being a highly trusted supplier is the result of his hard work.

Now Diaz is also living well at least better than before. However, it was obviously still not enough when he talked about his future or about family. Even so, optimism and confidence are important to achieve this level of life.

"Hm.."

The roar of a sports car engine sounded loud in every corner of the street. Attracts the attention of all the people in the cafe. Diaz who heard that, immediately turned off her phone because the person she was waiting for finally arrived.

The figure of the man in the suit came out of that luxurious sports car. He walks into the cafe and sits in front of Diaz. Opening his sunglasses and immediately giving a warm greeting.

"It's been a while?." He was friendly with a smile. "Look down, five minutes."

The man sat down and ordered the black coffee without sugar as usual. He took off the black suit he was wearing and left only a white shirt. He took his seat before starting the conversation.

"So?." Hanging up, Diaz sighed before questioning the main topic. "So, what happened to my account?." Diaz

Reno glanced at Diaz, a meaningful look in her eyes. Diaz understood that look, the look when an older brother was playing with a younger brother. "Let's know, maybe your account's been banned." He said with a small smile.

Diaz breathed in tired, "Be serious, Master. It's about the money I have to fight for."

True, Diaz's main income is on Athanor Online. The achievement of the rupiah is also at the point of exceeding its monthly office employees. His account Zephys, also has great potential to become the best player. It is not impossible that Diaz can enter high tournaments with his account.

Although it is a long level adrift, but Diaz can guarantee in the near future he can cover that distance. Also, he wants to become a dark horse that will destroy the throne of the strongest player who has been held by Sancaka.

Reno just smiled. Zephys, Diaz's account did get a bug when he picked up Nakroth's dagger or heirloom. But what Diaz doesn't know is, Why?. Both the system and the server Athanor Online are gods of all gods. Accommodating so many players at the same time is proof of his might.

"The reason why your account got a bug is, because you took something that was off limits and could not be read by the system." His word. Diaz tilted her head, "You mean that rusty dagger?." His words were answered with a small nod from Reno.

Drinking a little coffee, he resumed the conversation.

"You remember before the last chapter in Antharis Online."

Diaz recalls the old game. A memory comes to mind. Diaz does not remember the chapter because it has been very long, but he still remembers the big chronology in the game Antharis Online which is the Prequel of Athanor Online.

"You mean the Primordial Chapter Has Fallen, and The Dark Lord Reborn?." Said hesitantly, Reno smiled a little when Diaz still remembered the chapter.

"True-", Reno again drank his black coffee to relieve a fairly empty throat. "You still remind The Black Mage Lorion that awakened the 3 soul pillars, and made half the sacred altar in Shurima empire crumble?." His word.

Diaz recalled the incident, he still remembered where this was the beginning of a great war. The so-called God and Devil wars are second. "Yes I still remember, but didn't Lorion have been defeated by Darcy?." Diaz

"Darcy didn't defeat Lorion, but sealed him in the emptiness dimension" he said as he returned to drinking his black coffee, he didn't seem to give up cold black coffee. "Although Darcy is also sealed in the void dimension due to the pull of the Black Mage Lorion being too strong." Reno.

There's too much information Diaz has received here. Darcy, a trusted disciple of the Black Mage Lorion. But for some reason he chose to betray his teacher. Lorion's intention was to rule the world and prove his black magic was the strongest. And that, is something Darcy doesn't like.

Even so, he is still not strong enough to stop the teacher's evil intentions. Because the teacher's Darkin Blade was extremely powerful. Until a labyrinth he found a power. If the Darkin Blade is in the form of a weapon then this is in the form of a soul, namely Aspect Of Void.

Their battle at the Ruins of Shurima's sacred altar is long and famous. Darcy trudges to defeat Lorion, but he is also affected because he is also interested and trapped in the dimension of his emptiness. But it was an easy thing for him, he who created this dimension then it was not difficult for him to get out of this dimension of emptiness.

But this was the beginning of the great war to happen again. Because it's not just Lorion and Darcy who are locked up in that dimension. With a bitter smile Diaz asked. "Volkath isn't that right?." Smiling slightly, Reno replied. "Just right!.".

"When Darcy came out with the dimensional portal, Volkath who was in the same dimension also came out with Darcy, of course quietly."

But why is Volkath in that dimension?.

"In the prologue of Antharis Online, you should know that Volkath failed in his first invasion. Because an arrow containing the magical power of the Yggdrasil tree from the elven queen Tell Annas, struck right in the heart of Volkath." Said Reno while glancing because there are the gazes of women who seem interested in the appearance of him and Diaz.

"And the Yggdrasil tree is one of the sources of infinite power in Athanor. Just with this information, you should be able to fill in the various plot holes in Antharis Online."

Diaz smiled slightly. Interesting information he heard here, various plot holes that he did not understand before now he can speculate. It sounds random, but Diaz can sort events into one or more possibilities.

"And one more thing Diaz, you should know. All races are the main Villains at Athanor Online, and only the player's point of view knows that."

Diaz smiled slightly, if indeed what he had been thinking about the first point of view of Aspect Of Light in Antharis Online. So, there are very many plot twist in the game. Are the Archons or gods really wise?, or even use their high authority to oppress those below?.

Are the Noctrune revolutionaries, if they put aside their cruelty?. It all depends on the player's point of view. No race is clean, all are hypocrites. Wearing a mask to cover the real face, or not being ashamed to wear the real face, because wearing a mask is disgusting.

Diaz smiled slightly,

"So the player is the one who decides the story this time?." Diaz said and answered a small nod from Reno.

Diaz drank his coffee, and returned to the main topic

"So the reason why my account was hit by a bug, it's because Nakroth's weapon is Darkin, and Athanor Online's system can't read it yet, right?."

"Yes, Darkin. And I warn you Diaz, if you manage to pull Darkin's weapon. Then there are two possibilities. You control that weapon, or that weapon controls you."

"In other words, a double-edged sword."

Darkin is a living weapon. Nakroth managed to fully master his Darkin Rodant. Unlike Diaz or Zephys, it could be seen that his right arm had turned into a demon. And it signifies that Darkin has taken control of the right arm of the Zephys.

Many ancient beings wanted Darkin. But instead of mastering it, they became the hosts of the Darkin. Even the likes of Volkath and Bright are incapable of mastering it.

"What else do you want to ask Diaz?."

"Well, I think that's enough. And thanks for the information, I hereby understand why Nakroth's locket is so sought after by Noctrune." Diaz said with a small smile, and with a big smile Reno replied

"In the future there will be a bigger enemy, Zephys. You need to get ready." Reno

The reason why Noctrune wanted Nakroth's pendant so badly was because it was a fragment of the Dark Andura Stone. Which is the source of power. The Dark Lord, Volkath.
