Chapter 1722 The Rock I Chose
About half a day already passed and Adrian was still choosing between the rocks that Paradox has already sensed. He did not focus on them much as that might alert some of the players that those rocks might be special. There were some rocks that he was told that were chosen but they were only Epic Tier.
Adrian observed the rocks that he marked that were chosen by other players. They were items that had a special ability regarding to origin magic. Adrian believed that this was the reason why Paradox reacted to them strongly.
He saw a bead that is a material that can be attached to a wand that can negate 1 minute of cast time. It was an incredible item, but one would also need a skilled craftsman to fuse it with your current weapon. That was one of the legendary tier materials that is inside the vault.
Paradox also classified the items based on what it could sense. Paradox has marked three items that is special and one of them was the bead that was already taken. The items that Paradox could not easily classify were actually Epic Tier items that had specialties that lets the user escape a few meters if hit by a powerful spell or erupt a barrier that can negate magic spells for two seconds.
Adrian thought that he would never find a Mythical Tier item from the pile of rocks that are in the vault until Paradox trembled. Paradox was flying around Adrian until it shook heavily for the first time and separated from Adrian on its own whim. Paradox suddenly flew towards the pile of stones that were present in the very first area that one can see rocks.
The players did not think that an important item would be present in the first area which is why it is mainly untouched. There are some that chose from the first area, but they were extremely small in number when compared to the people that entered this vault. Since Adrian was already circling the area since he entered, the other players did not find his action different.
"Is there something wrong, Paradox?" Adrian asked.
"Master! This is the thing that we need." Paradox stated as it hovered on top of a rock that is piled up against other rocks.
Beelzebub saw that Adrian managed to pick an item that is of the mythical tier, but it is also something that eludes him of its use. Beelzebub smiled but did not react that much as he was only there to take off the glamour. The players are the ones that will need to pick what type of fate that they have.
Adrian chose to trust Paradox as it always made sure that he always gets on top. Adrian picked up the rock and immediately proceeded to where Beelzebub is as he is the only one to turn the rock into the real item that it should be. Adrian handed the rock to Beelzebub as the latter took the item with a smile.
"As expected, you are incredibly interesting even for me. If you had been born as a devil, then I would make you, my successor. Do you wish to become a devil? I can easily bypass the laws of the world when I am in Hell." Beelzebub stated.
"Not really interested. I quite like what I am." Adrian replied.
"Such a pity. Your devious mind is perfect for being a devil." Beelzebub stated as he finally took off the glamour that he has cast on the rock.
A powerful light suddenly exploded from the item as a Mythical Tier item has finally been picked inside the Vault of Gluttony. There have been other players that also unlocked a mythical tier item, but they are part of other vaults. All the players inside the vault could only look at Adrian with eyes full of envy and longing as they also want to pick a mythical tier item.

Adrian did not think that he would get a Mythical Tier consumable and it also gives him a skill when used. Beelzebub could be seen looking at Adrian's expression as even he could not read the description of the item. Beelzebub could only see what the item looks like which vexes him as he could not know the true purpose of it is.
The Essence of the Rift looks like a small marble that is about an inch in diameter. It would be more appropriate to call it a pill instead of a real item since it was actually much smaller than the rock that Adrian picked up. Adrian was amazed by that glamour as it actually felt like a real rock instead of the item that he sees now.
The Essence of the Rift is a one-inch diameter marble that has a swirling galaxy inside of it. Beelzebub did not know its use which is why it only thought that it is a beautiful marble that has a small galaxy trapped inside of it. He though it was an item where the user can use in order to escape momentarily but it is not.
"Thank you." Adrian stated as he took the item from Beelzebub's hands.
Beelzebub wanted to ask Adrian what the item is, but the demon just took the item and immediately left. Adrian did not want to waste anymore time there and he also did not want to stay there any longer. The commotion of getting a mythical tier item is already a lot.
Adrian did not stay in Hell either as he already sent a group chat to his guild members saying that he needed to return to Avalon which is why they could resume whatever duties that they have. Adrian immediately entered the guild house upon arriving at Avalon and took out the Essence of the Rift.
"How do I consume it though? Do I actually need to physically ingest this thing?" Adrian asked himself but he was also asking Paradox as it was the one that picked the item.
"Do you feel like ingesting it, master?" Paradox asked Adrian as even it did not know how to use the item.
All Paradox knows is that the item that it picked would be beneficial for both of them but mostly for Adrian. Paradox made sure to prioritize Adrian before itself which is why it picked an item that was better for its master despite it sensing an item that would be good for itself. Adrian stared at the Essence of the Rift and actually felt his tummy growl as if his body wanted to eat it.
"My entire body is screaming to eat it. There is also no instruction to use it which means anything goes. I can just spit it out if I do not need to consume it." Adrian stated as he opened his mouth and swallowed the Essence of the Rift.
"Hmm? Nothing is happening. Maybe, I do not need to eat it. Let me spit it out." Adrian muttered but he suddenly felt his whole body becoming hot.
A powerful explosion of cosmic light suddenly filled the entire guild house which shocked the other guild members that have already returned as well. They thought that the guild house was getting attacked but it was actually their guild master releasing powerful beams of cosmic light as they saw his body being wrapped in it.
Adrian looked like he was undergoing a cocoon process as the cosmic light that he released also created a blanket for him to be covered upon. The cosmic light soon faded after a few minutes of Adrian groaning in pain as he actually felt all his skin was about to get ripped off. The energy that suddenly exploded in his body was almost difficult for him to even contain.
"Sensing vital signs. The master is fine. Any chance of death has been minimized due to the master having the body of an Arch Demon." Paradox stated in its robotic voice.
[You have gained the passive ability of Mythical Tier called the Rift Manipulator.]
"Did you actually calculate the odds of me dying? Maybe give me a heads up before you let me devour a monstrous pill that actually carried the power of an extremely miniscule universe!" Adrian stated as he actually saw flashes of civilization and life when he devoured the Essence of the Rift.
"The master is incredibly sturdy due to his demonic body. You will not die even if you swallowed three more of those." Paradox replied to which Adrian was in disbelief.
