Chapter 265 - Wraith Vs. Wraithless
Chapter 265 - Wraith Vs. Wraithless.
''Fuck…'' Isaac cursed under his breath and stood up under heavy hatred-filled gazes.
When he was about to leave, he heard words that stopped him from leaving.
''Wraith, my old friend!'' KnightOfHoliness stood up and innocently smiled.
The room became quiet after his words.
The Players looked surprised and turned their heads towards the white-haired youth, and on top of the head, the name [Wraith] was visible.
''It's him…'' The Players started whispering with each other.
''So-called Pioneer of Marksmen class…''
''Marksman class is still shitty. Remember the fool that just lost in the arena? Marksman class will be useless, and it won't change without any buffs.''
''True… But, you must have seen the clip?''
''…''
Many Guilds present in the room turned their hungry-looking eyes towards Isaac.
Their eyes showed obvious greed for getting Isaac into their Guild; in their eyes, he was like a valuable gem.
Members of the Black Arrow guild looked surprised.
''Wraith…'' Darth was surprised to see the white-haired youth, whom he hadn't met after Duo Dungeon, but had chatted with regularly.
''Wraith-chan…'' Queen Diana murmured and glared at KnightOfHoliness, who obviously had bad intentions towards the white-haired youth.
In her eyes, KnightOfHoliness looked a lot like Darkside.
''Wraith, remember me?'' KnightOfHoliness asked innocently, but deep inside his eyes, deep-rooted hate was visible.
''I do,'' Isaac replied.
''Coward,'' KnightOfProtection muttered under his breath. Against Isaac, he couldn't even do anything after getting shot in the head.
The way he died enraged him greatly, but gladly; his family was relatively wealthy that allowed him to buy another VR Helmet, but his parents weren't that pleased.
But, after today's update, his parents started encouraging him to keep playing.
He could focus on earning money, but he couldn't rest before he had gotten rid of his demons.
A demon who goes by the name of Wraith.
KnightOfCharming clenched his fist, and last time, he couldn't catch him, but this time, he won't let him escape.
TomValeo's friendship with his long-time friends was somewhat ruined; even though it was his fault, he blamed Isaac for it and didn't plan to stop before he licked his boots.
The Players who saw the scene were certain that they weren't friends.
The way they kept looking at Wraith was one of hate.
Only one thing was in their minds.
Drama!
Most of them opened their recording equipment.
Darth stood up with his bow in his right hand.
''Good…'' KnightOfHoliness murmured and asked, ''Well then, Wraith, do you want to fight in the arena?''
Isaac narrowed his eyes and asked, ''Why would I do that?''
KnightOfHoliness shrugged and said, ''I just want to test the strength of famous Wraith. Nothing else, but if you are insecure about the strength of Marksman class… You can, of course, refuse.''
His smile looked innocent, but it was clear he wasn't going to take no for an answer.
The Players started whispering, and if Isaac indeed refused, it would mean that he wasn't confident in his own Class.
Everyone thought that Wraith would show the true power of Marksman Class, but if he refused now, the amount of hate he would receive from both Marksman Class Players and other Players wasn't going to be small.
Isaac felt like he was trapped inside a prison cell.
The glares from nearby Players made his skin itchy and uncomfortable.
''So, are you going to accept?'' KnightOfHoliness did one final push.
''Fine…'' Isaac replied while grinding his teeth.
''Good.'' He replied with a larger smile, ''Gladiator Interface.''
He pressed [Challenge] and wrote Isaac's Player Tag on it.
*Ding* *Ding*
[KnightOfHoliness Has Challenged You!]
[Accept] [Reject]
Isaac pressed to accept, and the holographic screen disappeared into a cloud of smoke.
''See you in the arena~.'' KnightOfHoliness waved his hand and left the room with the rest of the members of Wraithless, but they didn't forget to send another hateful glare in Isaac's direction.
Isaac felt like a massive mountain was just placed on top of his shoulders.
''You are indeed famous.'' He heard a familiar voice, which he could recognize from anywhere.
He didn't even have to look who spoke, ''Darth.''
He turned his head and saw the handsome black-haired youth walking toward him.
Darth put his hand forwards and shook hands with him, ''Old friends, eh?''
Isaac wryly smiled and shook his head, ''I have some history with them.''
''I can see that.'' Darth replied and patted his shoulder, ''They are plotting something.''
''I know.'' Isaac knew it by now, ''Well, not that it matters.''
''Maybe so.'' Darth stepped to the side and showed a path towards couches, where Black Arrow members were.
Isaac walked with him towards the Black Arrow Members.
''Wraith.'' Queen Diana smiled and stood up.
Isaac shook hands with her and nodded toward other Core Members.
''Julia.'' He nodded at Player, who goes by the name of Colorful, who was also his former classmate.
Colorful smiled and was about to say his real-life name but remembered that he didn't want anyone else to know about it.
''Hey, how are you doing?'' She quickly changed her wording and instead asked how he was doing.
''Good.'' Isaac sat down right next to her, with their knees touching each other.
Colorful became stiff with an instant red face.
Darth sat next to Isaac and sighed, ''Sigh, Wraith, how come you haven't visited Black Arrow Guild Building?''
''I did,'' Isaac replied with a chuckle.
''Oh, when?'' Darth looked surprised, ''When we were on Forest of Unknown, or?''
''Nah, like.'' Isaac opened the interface to check the time and said, ''Like two hours ago.''
''Oh.'' Darth exclaimed, ''What were you doing there?''
''I met with Gard.'' He replied and shrugged, ''No one else was there.''
''Oh, you met with old fart.'' Darth was curious about the reason for his meeting with Gard.
Queen Diana suddenly elbowed his waist and said sternly, ''Don't call him that.''
''You call him with that nickname too!'' Darth exclaimed, ''Why are you trying to act like a proper Guild Leader?''
Queen Diana pouted and crossed her arms with displeasure, ''It's time for me to change… Everyone will know beautiful Queen Diana and her gentle nature.''
Darth and every Core Member rolled their eyes.
