World Online-Chapter 242 The Other Half
"They saw us. I could swear, they saw us." Ghostly Star nodded.
"We should retreat. If any of these monsters see us, we are as good as dead. Look at how many there are." Volcanic Python reminded Ghostly Star.
"We should walk toward them. That way, we can meet in the middle." Ghostly Star suggested.
"Yeah. Whatever works. At this point, I just want to get back to the rest of the army. Just us, alone in this creepy place, just gives me the chills." Volcanic Python said.
"Yeah. And those monsters. What were they? I mean, I have never seen those monsters before. They seem like they are so much stronger than the wolves that we faced." Ghostly Star said.
"It is a pity Lone Assassin isn't here to enjoy this. He always likes a challenge." Volcanic Python sighed.
"Don't talk about him like he is dead or something. He is going to revive in a few minutes anyways, and he will join the attack soon enough. You can meet him after that." Ghostly Star said.
"For now though, the goal should be rushing through to those two that we saw." He reminded her.
"But I feel like I saw those two before. A girl and a boy, I think? Who were they? Which guild do you think they are a part of? Volcanic Python wondered.
"Definitely not Phoenix's Dawn. I would have recognized them if they were from our guild." Ghostly Star said.
"I mean, I would have thought that the girl was the guild master, but we just saw her with someone else. You know that the guild master doesn't dare let any man near her unless they are bowing their heads down." Ghostly Star shrugged.
"Some ego, she has." Volcanic Python scoffed.
"Shut it. If any of them hear you speaking, you can get into so much trouble. Her father owns the guid, basically. There is a reason she is a guild master." Ghostly Star reminded Volcanic Python. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎
"Maybe they are from that other guild. The Bright Horizon guild. I mean, it feels so odd, working with a noob guild like that." Volcanic Python said.
"They did manage to contribute significantly to the first fight. More than we did, atleast." Ghostly Star shrugged.
"Those three in the front, you might not have seen them, but I was assigned to the edge along with you, and I had a clear line of sight. I could see what was happening." Ghostly Star shuddered.
"I don't care about the rest of the guild. Those three at the front are reason alone for anyone to fear the guild. The guild master, the vice guild master, and someone I have never heard of before." He said. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦
"What do you mean? What did they do?" Volcanic Python asked. She was too intrigued, with the build up that Ghostly Star had created.
"They were monsters on the field. The front line behind them was absolutely useless! They didn't get any monsters to deal with. Barely one or two passed every few minutes. All the other wolves fell in just a single blow!" Ghostly Star exclaimed.
"There is no doubt. They are all absolute monsters. And the guild master. He is definitely a ranker. This is not a corporation guild. This is an actual guild led by someone who is actually strong enough to be a guild leader." Ghostly Star said.
"If I weren't bound by contract, maybe I would consider going to Bright Horizon. I don't know about the players of the guild, but with a proper and strong leader, they might have a good future." He said.
"But without the support of a large corporation, do you really think they are able to do anything at all? Sure, for now, they have one record under their name. But soon enough, they will not be able to get anywhere. Money is everything in this world." Volcanic Python shook her head.
"Shhh" Ghostly Star suddenly shushed her as he looked around with caution.
"We are in enemy territory. We can never be too careful. Talk a little softly. Why do you have to be so loud?" Ghostly Star shook his head and sighed.
"This is the second time I have had to say this. There is a literal army standing next to us. If we manage to piss them off, we go up, and we will bring that army toward whoever is trying to help us as well." Ghostly Star said.
"Fine. I was wrong." Volcanic Python sighed and nodded.
Both of them had been walking for a few minutes, and they didn't notice how much ground they had covered in this time.
"I just want to cross this ravine. The other side is so clear, so we won't have to deal with this irritating pink mist. I can't see anything. The only reason we know where we are going is because we are at the edge over here." Ghostly Star muttered.
"How did we get this deep into the forest anyways? I thought that we were walking forward but it turns out all our sense of direction is lost right now." He said.
"Wait! I see two silhouettes in the mist!" Volcanic Python suddenly exclaimed.
"What?" Ghostly Star suddenly jumped into position.
His shield landed in front of him, making a giant thud, as a large sword appeared in his right hand.
"Careful. We might have thought they are allies, but we can never be so sure. Don't drop your guard until we can confirm who they are." Ghostly Star called out.
"Hahaha!"
From the silhouette on the left, a large laugh came out.
"Interesting. Really interesting. I really like this man. To think he covered all of his bases like this. You are really lucky, Phoenix. To have such good guid members."
"Phoenix? Does that mean, the guild leader?" Ghostly Star froze.
