Transmigrated as a Ghost

1020  Chapter 1020 Conversation with the Administrator (2)

The Administrator grumbled for several minutes about how much difficulty it was to clean up the horrific monsters that the secret cabal had summoned. She had apparently had to section off about a fourth of the continent where the incident had happened and warp all of its inhabitants into a separate dimension to avoid a mass slaughter.

"This incident didn't occur on the continent Borealia is a part of, did it?" Marcus asked, worried about his friends and acquaintances back home.

"No, the cabal that had the grimoire in their possession is based practically on the other side of the world from where you live. No need to worry. They probably haven't even heard of what happened yet."

Marcus let out a sigh of relief when he heard that Borealia had not been caught up in the attack by the Eldritch Horrors brought forth by the otherworldly grimoire. Of course, when he thought about it, since one already had appeared on the continent it was unlikely that another of the three would be so close by.

"So, what happened to the cabal in possession of the grimoire?" "Most of them killed themselves in a group summoning ritual. The damned fools offered up their souls to those monsters to bring them forth into this world. Frankly they had no clue what they were actually doing. What awaits them now is a fate worse than even selling your soul to a demon." The Administrator said shaking her head.

She then told Marcus that she had captured the few members that had survived the ritual and read their memories to find other members of their group that were still at large. "Still, there is one more thing that is bothering me. If that man used this cabal and the grimoire as a distraction for you, that means he must have been able to communicate with these people somehow. Did you figure out how he did that?"

"Unfortunately, I wasn't able to sus that out of any of the members I captured." The Administrator groaned. Apparently, the cabal was led by some sort of hidden leader that had not participated in the ritual and none of the members that had survived knew anything about this individual other than that they supposedly existed.

The Administrator tried everything she could to track down this leader, but her search did not yield any results. As she explained, she was not omniscient otherwise she would have noticed the man infiltrating Mirrion despite the distraction he had set up for her.

"If the leader is still at large, doesn't that mean he can gather another group and do the summoning ritual again.?" Marcus said, looking worried.

"No, they won't be able to do it again, not without this."

"I thought that you said you weren't going to be reading my mind anymore." Marcus said accusatorily. The Administrator had clearly known what was going through his head and responded before he said anything, so he figured she must still be listening in on his thoughts.

"As I told you, I stopped reading your mind at the start of the conversation. With the dour look that was on your face, I did not need to be in your head to know what you were thinking."

"Now back to the topic at hand."

With the preface out of the way, the Administrator explained that the man that had infiltrated Mirrion was a high-ranking member of a faction that opposed the faction that she was a part of. From what she knew, they were in league with the Eldritch Monsters that had breached into this universe from another one. She also told Marcus how the man managed to sneak onto Mirrion. "I am sure that you know that this island was not here before. It is one of a few things I added to the world in a recent update. It was during these additions to Mirrion that the man used a backdoor in the system that had been left undiscovered since this world's creation to hitch a ride along with the Tower of Heaven. This new special dungeon is different from others in many ways. It leads beyond Mirrion if you can reach the top. Though it is only supposed to be a one-way connection, the man used it to reach Mirrion from outside." The Administrator explained.

Naturally after discovering this issue, she had patched it so that no one else could use the same method to breach Mirrion's security. Sadly, the initial damage was already done, and it was not known if there were any other holes that invaders could use to sneak onto the world.

"There are other intricacies going on behind the scenes, but so long as you are on Mirrion, there is no need for you worry about them. I have already told you more than anyone else on this world knows, other than Roxene. If you want to know more, then reach the limits of this world and break free from it. Once you do, I promise to tell you everything." The Administrator said, putting an end to their discussion.

His curiosity piqued; Marcus looked towards the Tower of Heaven. From what he had just learned, it was a direct means to ascend beyond Mirrion.

"I wouldn't go in there yet if I were you. The Tower of Heaven won't let you leave until you clear it, or you perish. Either way, your time on Mirrion will be over once you enter. There is no need for you to rush. There is still plenty of this world for you to see. I'd recommend you take things slowly and enjoy your life here before thinking about what lies beyond. Believe it or not, Mirrion is one of the more peaceful worlds out there."

With this last bit of advice, the Administrator finished off her tea and sweets before standing up and causing everything except the chair Marcus was sitting on to disappear.

"I have more work that I need to get to, so I can't stick around any longer. Oh, and don't go telling anyone else other than your wife about what I've mentioned to you here. Since she was involved and I don't want to drive a wedge in between you two, I'll make an exception for her, but no one else." Once she finished saying this, the Administrator snapped her fingers and vanished. Leaving Marcus alone.
