Chapter 207 [207] The War Within The Guilds
"That was a C-rank dungeon break!"
A burly man yelled and slammed the table.
"We know, it was the famed golden prodigy of Shield and Twilight that was sent here."
Another voice answered,
"Who?"
The burly man questioned, and a separate voice answered.
"Alan Peccator, the first ranked first year in Shield. And Also the first Spatial awakened mage in history."
The people around the table quietened down as they heard this, and the entry area was drowned in Silence until the burly man cursed.
"Fucking Twilight...What profit do they see in Aror?"
He wondered, but nobody knew the answer to that...
It would be understandable if Aror was home to many high-ranked dungeons...but that was not the case...neither was it really high in mana density. Aror had no quality of note that a top three guild would be interested in it.
But then....WHY WAS IT INTERESTED IN AROR?!
It made no sense!
And they sent their prodigy here as well?
What the fuck is this?
The group of people wondered but they could still find no answer.
"How is the production of Anti mana bullets going?"
Suddenly, a petite woman sitting at the table asked.
"Good, we produced about 768 magazines and weaponry. We're planning on selling the low grade to the normal bastards...the only problem is Mike."
Tch..."
"Damn bastard should have made a guild in a big city.."
Curses were heard from all around the table.
Mike, Elijah's father was a B+ Rank hunter who was the only one holding this group of people back...Just his Identity was enough to stop a major part of their plans.
"Don't worry about Mike, I'll deal with him."
A man sitting at the head of the table said, and they all listened to him silently.
White hair resembling a white tiger, and a figure matching a tiger as well.
"As for the recent 'incident', Rhino and his guild take care of it as it was their Idea and territory."
He said, and the burly man, or rather Rhino Said.
"I already did, I requested them to share the spoils because it happened in our territory, and if they don't Im ready to issue a Guild war that I will personally participate in."
Rhino said, and the rest laughed.
"If possible, try getting one of those famous Spatial rings...I have heard a lot about them on the Market. those are more valuable than the monster corpses."
Tiger, the man at the head of the table said, and Rhino agreed.
"Of course, If I can I'm getting those prized Spatial rings as well...I'll beat the prodigy they have and then take em by force!"
Rhino laughed as he sat down on his chair.
"What about Mike's son? Eric?"
"We still have him hooked, bastard doesn't even realize he isn't as talented as his father or younger brother."
"Hah! to be the eldest son yet be outshined by his younger brother. Pitiful lad!"
They laughed at him until Tiger stood up.
"This marks the end of this meeting, everyone go and do what you are assigned."
And he left, and the others soon followed.
******
"So they wanna take it this far?"
Maxwell read the guild war request he had received and sighed.
"Do they have shit for brains? We are the third strongest guild... Or are they underestimating us because they think this branch is useless to the main Headquarters?"
He wondered, flipping the pages of the request whilst thinking.
'That's probably it, they should be underestimating us. Well, we don't exactly have a lot of manpower here either.'
He put down the request and showed a devious smirk.
"Well, who says only you bastards get to put down conditions...hehe."
Maxwell laughed...and began to write something on his computer.
'They will stop underestimating us the moment we win, so it is better to milk this opportunity for all it's worth.'
'The Rhino guild huh, They have a decent amount of territory...'
He finished the request he was writing on his computer...except for the final part.
'If they aren't as stupid as I think...then I will have to throw in some 'bait'.'
He thought and inputted the 'bait'.
[If Twilight's team loses, The Branch will give three spatial rings, to the opposing(Rhino) guild.]
A flawed clause...Because he didn't specify which type of spatial ring...
The entire market only knew of the spatial ring that could hold 64 items, But was unaware that Alan could create even stronger and also weaker rings.
He was planning to give them weak rings 'if' they lost.
Well, he didn't worry about the backlash, because he didn't think they would lose. That clause was just there to tempt them to accept.
He sent the request...and then began to work on something else.
The Public should also be aware, no?
****
In a few days, the entire of Aror city knew of the upcoming guild war between Rhino and Twilight over the corpses of the monsters.
Maxwell had done everything in his power to publicize this event...contacting multiple broadcasting companies.
"The Twilight Vs Rhino Guildwar will be a 50 vs 50 battle royale. The match will take place in Aror Stadium, and multiple people have begun betting upon each guild..."
Mike watched the Tv as he brought a tray of Fried chicken to a particular table.
"Here you lads and ladies go, Eat well and remember to come again."
He put down the buckets of fried chicken on the table where Elijah's friends sat.
Upon seeing them, Mike had his money senses tingling, and was happy as hell.
Three extremely beautiful young daughters of prestigious backgrounds, and a handsome young man as well.
Of course, Elijah's friends had come to his family's shop a short while after arriving in the town...although it was mainly because Serena couldn't handle being away from Elijah for a while.
They came here right away, and Elijah was surprised as hell when he saw Serena, Elaine, Sabrina, and Henry come here. His mother and Sister were also extremely excited.
"What kind of cosmetic products do you use to get such smooth and fair skin?"
His sister, Mary, was hogging Sabrina all the while...but unfortunately for her, Sabrina had her attention somewhere else.
The Twilight Vs Rhino guild war.
Whilst everyone was busy eating the extremely delicious Fried chicken, her attention was on the broadcast.
"I don't use any products, Ma'am."
She answered Mary without taking her eyes off the screen. And eventually, the rest noticed this strange behavior.
"Oh is somebody worried?"
Henry asked in a teasing tone.
"Someone's bodyguard is up to trouble."
Her friends laughed, whilst she shrugged them off and ate a piece of fried chicken.
"Delicious."
She said, but Henry did not give up so easily.
"Someone is worried her bodyguard will be beaten up."
He said, enjoying this situation.
"If you think a mere 50 people belonging to a mid rank guild are going to take him down, you're severely mistaken."
Sabrina shut him off, while Elijah explained the situation to his family...who understood it well.
"You let her be taken by someone else?!"
His father whispered in his ear. To which Elijah stared dumbfoundedly.
"And why would I care? I have no reason too."
She said. This was a lie. Her family directly supported And sponsored Twilight, She did care of the outcome.
But that was not the main reason of her worry.
