I smiled wryly to myself. Of course, I would alter it. But, that wasn’t the present concern. After the whole announcement and rewards had been given, I knew what would be coming next.
[SYSTEM UPDATE]
~The Main Scenarios Will Now Commence~
~There Are Seven Waves Of ARMAGEDDON, Divided Into Seven Scenarios~
<Please Note That The Tutorial Scenario Is Not Among The Seven Calamities>
My smile increased.
They weren’t of excitement, though. The sticky cold sweat that appeared on my body was proof of that. I was nervous… who wouldn’t be?
Horrors were about to be unleashed!
[SYSTEM UPDATE]
~The First Wave Of ARMAGEDDON Will Commence One Week From Now~
<Please Prepare Within That Time>
[Details On The First Wave Will Be Given Below]
[SYSTEM INFORMATION]
<First Scenario: The Horsemen Of The Apocalypse>
[Scenario Information]
After the tutorial concludes, the harbingers of hell will rain upon the world, bringing about a ‘Great Tribulation’.
The Four Horsemen; Conqueror, War, Death, and Lack, shall engulf the world in chaos and decrease the population to about two-third their initial number before vanishing. Therefore, they serve as agents of a ‘Culling’ to occur.
However, do not fret!
The System provides ways for you to get stronger in order to prepare for their arrival.
For six months six weeks and six days after the start of the Scenario, the Horsemen shall not afflict the world. Rather, they will be locked away in their ‘Tower’ during this period.
Of course, their minions will be unleashed upon the world to wreak havoc in their stead.
O’ Heroes, stop these agents of darkness and prepare for the arrival of the Evil Ones.

I sighed while reading through the long information given.
Many people who received the same ping may not have completely understood the relevance of the upcoming scenarios, but I did perfectly.
“At least there’s enough time…”
Those who thought that way were bound to die.
The ‘Quests’ given, though seemingly simple, were easier said than done.
One week from now, four towers would emerge all over the Globe, and they could easily be accessed by using the System Interface. Of course, these monoliths were named after the Four Horsemen. For example, The Tower Of War, etc.
Gifteds would begin challenging the Towers to get rewards, and even those who wanted to play it safe by remaining away from those structures would be assailed by armies of Demons who served the Four Horsemen.
These Demons were at least Grade 2, so the difficulty of this first Scenario was bound to be hardcore.
Taking all the Grade 2 Demons I had faced so far, and using the Hobgoblin Chiefs as a reference, the Demons that were going to appear would be completely impossible for Gifteds to handle as they were now.
Which was why they had to Level Up as much as possible within the one week of grace permitted by the System. Still, even with that, survival was slim. Which was why…

I eyed the list, making a somewhat pained expression.
For the last part, I couldn’t even form Parties if I wanted to. Once they could see my Alignment, no one would trust me enough to use them.
I was planning on using my alter-ego, The Masked Hero, to pair up with Parties and utilize them for my goals. Unfortunately, with my Alignment being the way it was… that would be hopeless.
“Inventory, eh?” My voice came out in a whisper.
This was one of the reasons I initially despised my Gift, albeit subconsciously.
My [Subspace] was initially similar to the INVENTORY function available now, so I had deemed it useless. But, with the benefit of hindsight, I now understood how flawed my line of thinking had been.
As for the SHOP feature, it had to be the most decent update of them all.
If anything, this was the only bright side to the end of the Tutorial Scenario. With the exception of a few things such as Titles and Free Slots, a person could basically purchase anything they desired in the SHOP!
From Gear, to Skills, to Special Items one could use for practically ranged objectives; the possibility was endless!
‘It’s right on time too… I basically have nearly nothing left.’
With this, I would be able to restock at least…
