Just as William was on the run, the City of Dawn players started to miss their prince.
The other NPCs were very deceptive!
The City of Dawn players were in the middle of two missions now.
One was 'Endless Exploration', which was about the sea.
The other one was to help the Slovan Dukedom defeat the dark creatures and rebuild their nation.
These two S-rank missions were supposed to be easy and rewarding.
The players were already used to William taking the lead to charge at the front, while they followed behind and cleaned up after him.
It was only until now that they realized not all NPCs were so nice to players. Not every NPC wanted to fight at the front line.
Also, not all NPCs cared whether they lived or not.
Most of the time, if William sent them to die, there would be an additional mission reward to make up for their lost experience and equipment.
