The group had prepared a carriage to carry them up till the gates of the Holy capital.

Necros boarded first. The carriage rocked around furiously as he sat in it. He looked out the window. As the Holy Capital approached, he gulped.

Astrid and Fay were both following him. The rest were to be seen as other groups and just follow from a distance.

"Hold it. State your purpose."

"Traveler. I'm hungry." He said in a really simple way.

They allowed him and his group to pass through. He entered the capital which was really noisy and busy around this time.

He looked around and saw thieves stealing from each other. Most of the people here were greedy.

"Holy my ass." He said as he continued walking. As he was walking, he saw a restaurant named Earth's Delight.

He entered the restaurant and the owner of the bar, greeted him. "Welcome!"

"I have questions for you."
The owner was a really old man in his late 80s.

"Are you a player?"
The man looked shock. "Shh not so loud. I managed to settle in this area as a food provider. I don't want to get dragged back into the mess."

"What mess? And when did you get here?"
"The players who arrived at this new world with me, all joined different factions. I joined one of the 12 Kingdoms, The Great Hierarchy of Jonik Than."

"Odd name. When did you get here though?"
"Throughout my adventures when I was young, I learned the Cycle."

Necros looked at him with a puzzled face.  He gazed upon Necros with a serious face.

"What is the game you played called?"
"Sky of Grandia."
"So I was right..."

Necros was really confused. "What?"
"When I entered this game, it was called World of Destruction. That was also the name of the game I was playing. I had stumbled upon a man who had claimed he knew the cycle. Every 10 years, 15 players on the highest level is brought into this game. The game constantly changes names and has different times of bringing players in."

Necros now understood. Taka might have gotten in before him. He was sure Taka was a player from his Era.

"Why are you afraid of being an adventurer again?"

He gulped. "There are some players on max level."
