Chapter 143 - [143] The next 'bet'...

After being called onii-chan by Phipra, and having a chug contest of beer with Mario. I was pretty much worn out."Alright, enough with the games." Rima announced, and everyone straightened up. Then with a snap of her finger, Rin took the cards away and left the table."It's time to discuss future plans now." Rima cleared her throat then continued. "As you know the situation right now, REEPS being the first guild to conquer the tower of babble have made its way across many social media platforms now. Pretty much all the players know now, including our enemy the Legionnaire.""Now that they are aware of our existence again, they will hunt us down mercilessly. And as long as their leader is in power, we will not be able to lay down a single brick and rebuild what is ours.""But if we choose to run away for our lives, we might as well run away for the remainder of our lives. Sheeps can be obedient. But we are not sheep people. Are we not?" Rima roared like a lion, loud enough for the entire bar to hear."There was once a famous quote, 'better to live a day as a lion, then 100 years as a sheep'. Legionnaire is no more than an inflated balloon tiger, and we have bore with their tyranny long enough! Legionnaire gets this, Legionnaire gets that...Those of you out there, at some point, Legionnaire must have taken something from you during your time. They cheated and used you as free labour, and while as free adventures every hard cent we earned, the moment you arrived here, all those hard earned money goes to nothing under their ridiculous taxes!" Rima stood up and pumped her fist into the air, followed by a surprising eerie silence in the air."Psst...Could you tell your friend to not yell in the restaurant?" Rin whispered in a soft voice to Sioux."Sorry!" Sioux stood up and bowed to everyone in apologize as she set a hand on Rima's shoulder and slowly place her back in her chair again, and once again, the bar resumed with it's usual chaotic chatter and laughing."Why the commotion?" Eziel turned and asked."It's all part of the plan." Rima lowered her face, as a wicked grin opened up on her face."Now for the next part of the plan, or should I say bet?"Everyone looked at one another, and shrugged in confusion."I talked to Riga about it offline. And though I dare say it's a risky bet, well, I can't say it here in the public unfortunately..."My eyes narrowed a little."But for now let's just say, we are getting ourselves an army."Q: What is your reaction when someone is exploiting your money?
