Chapter 193 - Chapter 192

Baphomet was a devil from Christianity, his information could be easily obtained whether it was in reality or in Athenae. He was commonly known to be a bipedal black sheep. Of course, in Crones case, he was still unaware about the strength of Baphomet that was summoned by Pharaoh.

How much?

Are you asking about how strong he is?

Pharaoh continued his words.

Youve heard about the 5 incarnations right? Excluding those five, he is the strongest among the current monsters that can be summoned.

Crone grinned wickedly when he heard his words.

Legend will definitely be trampled by us!

But suddenly, he couldnt help but frown when he thought about something.

I cant reach Kaistra.

Since that time, he wasnt able to contact Kaistra at all. What was worse was that Rak also disappeared along with him. However, it didnt occur to him that the two of them would betray Black Stone at all. It was because betraying Black Stone meant betraying Callauhel and he knew that Kaistra and Rak would know how scary his wrath was.

Fire Fist Ace and Bounty Hunter Crow were moving together to hunt for a bounty.

Thats why Im asking you, why did you follow me in my bounty hunt?

Ace had suddenly joined Crows bounty hunt saying that he thought that he would need a lot of money.

I need to raise money for my wedding.

Huh?

Crow looked at him in confusion when he heard his words.

If I marry my ideal person later, should I start with an apartment thats at least 60 pyeong? I also have to prepare step by step from now on so I can raise my kids well. I dont even want to bother my children once I grow old.

Crow was left speechless. Ace was only 13 years old, it was too young for him to think of these messy things. Crow shook his head helplessly.

Kids these days.

The two of them went to Pelion Territory in Batro Kingdom. It was a place where those who had a bounty always went for refuge. They were hunting for a user named Coron. Bounties were not only for NPCs, users could also be charged with a bounty. And Coron was such a user. In Corons case, he attacked the top management, killed all the NPCs and plundered everything that he could. He was a fairly high leveled player at Lv400 with a bounty that was as much as 10 platinum. This just showed how cruel and wicked his ways were.

The two of them were finally able to arrive at the secret place where Coron was hiding. It was a little village far away from the bustling town center. Most of the famous Chaotic users would usually hide like this since there would be plenty of reward posters all over the territory. Just in time, they saw Coron coming out of his hiding place.

Ace and Crows eyes made contact.

Coron!

Corons eyes widened in shock.

Goddamn!

Crow, the Bounty Hunter, was also known as the devil among the Chaotic users so it was only normal for Coron to flee. And just as Coron was about to run away

Crackle, crackle, crackle!

Blazing flames shot up from Aces body and when he reached forward, a chain made of fire latched onto Corons ankle.

Crackle!

Keuaaaack! Wh, why are you guys doing this to me?! I didnt do something wrong!

At that moment, Ace heard a weird and incomprehensible notification.

What the hell?

[You have committed an act of poor etiquette.]

[User Ace is in a temporary chaotic state.]

[If the other party initiates an attack, the other party will not receive any penalty.]

You dont know what you did wrong?

Crow walked grimly towards Coron. He was someone who did evil things by killing only NPCs. He did not even dare try to kill users. For users like them, NPCs were just artificial intelligence. However, their lives were limited unlike theirs. And as a result, there were a lot of people who cared about these NPCs. And Corons actions were extremely detestable and condemnable.

[You have forced the other party to log out.]

[You have become a Chaotic User.]

[Various penalties will be applied to you.]

[Killing one of the members of Bachran Guild can cause friction with Bachran Guild.]

Crow was also flustered when Coron suddenly died in front of them. Then, he looked back at Ace.

Ace, that skill just now Does it have a lot of damage?

No. Its just a continuous 2% damage effect.

Crow suddenly had a bad feeling.

It feels like he deliberately shaved off his blood.

Then, Ace said

Crow.

Yeah?

That bastard, is he a person from Bachran Guild.

...What are you saying. Coron is not part of any guild. And you know that I only move against people without guilds.

But when this bastard died it said that he was a Bachran Guild member and that Im chaotic now.

Crows eyes widened. Bachran Guild was the 8th in the domestic guild rankings. It was a guild that was famous for being a rude mannered guild.

Ace became Chaotic?

This meant that Coron had solved his Chaotic state. There were only two ways to solve the chaotic state. He could go to the priest to repent. However, this method would use an incredible amount of gold. The second method was hunting and quests. Every time he hunted a monster, his chaotic level would drop little by little. Or he could immediately drop the chaotic level by doing a preceding quest.

Right now, I think they tried to make Ace chaotic. Why?

The cost of repentance would depend on the chaotic level and it was extremely expensive.

Why will Coron do such a thing? And Bachran Guild?

Ace.

Yeah?

Something had gone wrong.

The Thousand Heavenly Spear Master Zank had arrived at the capital of Valkyrie Kingdom after working hard to learn how to serve these days. Then, he saw ten people talking amidst each other.

Wow. Who is that person?

You can tell that hes a high leveled NPC, right?

So cool

The users were all bursting in admiration. The people they were talking about were the Heavenly Spear Masters. In the case of the Heavenly Spear Masters, they were the 1,000 or 100 most prestigious NPCs in the way of the spear. The people who were a part of the Thousand and the Hundred Heavenly Spear Masters all had varying degrees of strength.

The Hundred Heavenly Spear Masters could match at least 3,000 of the Thousand Heavenly Spear Masters. Usually, the Hundred Heavenly Spear Masters were at Lv450~460 while the Thousand Heavenly Spear Masters were at Lv410~440.

There were two people from the Hundred Heavenly Spear Masters and eight people from the Thousand Heavenly Spear Masters. Each and every one of them either learned spearmanship under Ben or grew up hearing Bens tales. And they were also sitting in various positions including a knight, a noble escort, a baronet and even a baron.

Why are you only here now, Zank!

How is the Legend doing now?

Im taking care of him well. If we hurry and go there via carriage then we can arrive there in half a day.

Zanks words brought fear and excitement on the faces of the Heavenly Spear Masters.

Hahaha. So did I!

They were on their way to greet the Legend Ben.

Meanwhile, a man suddenly asked.

But you see, Zank. What kind of work are you doing while helping the Legend these days?

Zanks mouth could not open for quite some time. It seemed like he couldnt explain what his situation was.

[Minhyuk: Genie-yah.]

[Genie: Yo. Isnt this the Elephant General?!]

Genie was wondering why Minhyuk suddenly sent her a whisper instead of sending a message in the guild chat. When she thought about it, she had not seen Minhyuk recently after he had logged out for a while to go and see his father.

[Minhyuk: I think I will have to move my hands against Bachran Guild.]

[Genie: Huh? Bachran Guild? What are you talking about?]

Genies expression turned solemn.

Bachran Guild? It is the worst rude mannered guild in the country but Minhyuk will move his hands against this kind of guild?

Not long after, Minhyuk explained his reasons. When she heard his motive, Genie couldnt help but open her mouth in shock.

Minhyukie really deserves to be angry.

Even though this was just a game, his father was still PKed. And everyone knew that he and his father were very close. Furthermore, he was clearly targeted and had almost suffered when he was in Ructos Tomb.

But as a guild master, it was a matter that she needed to take great care of. If they fought against each other now, would Bachran Guild win against them? Or is that reason already enough to start a fight? She also needed to take into account various concerns including the agreement of the other guild members and if they were willing to join such a fight.

[Minhyuk: And Ill leave the guild for a while.]

[Genie: …Huh?]

Genies eyes widened. After pondering for a bit, she realized his reasons.

Ah…

If Minhyuk went against Bachran Guild now, then it would not be his personal affairs anymore. Legend Guild and Bachran Guild would move against each other. However, if Minhyuk removed his connection with Legend Guild then it would be an entirely different matter altogether. In addition, Minhyuk already had his own title. He was the owner of the Valhalla Territory. Furthermore, he was also Bens master, the person that held the title of Vice Lord. Therefore, it wouldnt be too much if he left the guild for a while and came back after finishing what he needed to do.

However, she wondered if that really was the right thing to do. When she thought about it, the first to go against them was Bachran Guild. And Genie believed that she still had to ask the other guild members about this. And she also had a strong desire to help Minhyuk.

At that moment

[Guild Chatting Crow: GM-nim, I think we got caught in a trap.]

[Guild Chatting Ace: Ah, whats wrong with these Bachran Guild bastards?!]

Bachran Guild?

Bachran Guild again?

Genie frowned and talked to the two of them separately.

They induced a PK? This is a very old fashioned method that is usually done in Versal.

Several PK guilds that existed in the past used this method against guilds that were weaker than them. They induced PK and created a justification that would take away their momentum in the war. But eventually, they got caught.

Youre going to get cursed at anyway. Why, you wanted to take a look first? Are you an idiot or what?

No, more than that. Can Bachran Guild afford to fight us?

Legend Guild was a minority guild. If the war began with blunt and loud words then Legend Guild would start a silent war. There was only one way for them to win this war, they had to massacre the Bachran Guild silently. Unless Bachran Guild gathered more than 100 people, they would not be able to fight against the Legend Guilds 20 people. Therefore, in the long run, it was still Legend Guild who would win this war.

It would go different if they have a strong backing. But if theres such a group that is willing to support the Bachran Guild, then they will be a joke to all of us.

Genie, who had thought such things, had her thoughts tied in a complicated knot.

At that moment

[Crone: Hello. Im Bachran Guilds Guild Master, Crone. This time we are asking your guild members Crow and Ace for an apology for PKing one of our guild members, Coron for no reason at all.]

What the hell, this mXXXXfXXX?

Genie was so flustered that she couldnt help but laugh derisively.

Are you trying to do something that wouldnt work at all? So youre really just at this level, huh?

Genie just ignored the message. And after about 20 minutes.

[Crone: Ah, as expected, you really wouldnt apologize? ^^ Then it will be a guild war.]

Genie laughed. She was dumbfounded with his absurd words. Then, Crone sent her another whisper.

[Crone: Were almost there anyway. Lets get started.]

Genie tilted her head in confusion.

Then

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

A huge explosion shook the whole town.
