Chapter 299: Master of the Guardian beasts part-1

"Gailzach… even though he didn't show it in the video, now that he is the king, it's highly possible that he acquired the guardian beast too. After all, he doesn't need to capture it. Even if he kills, it will still end up in his hands as long as he stays as the King.

20 remaining…

Reverie's king is dead. So, that Elephant will disappear forever. Once the kings of Zuweth and Evelon die, their guardian beasts will also disappear forever. That's three down.

17 remaining…

One completely decimated Eiron but I haven't seen anyone summoned the guardian beast in the video. So, there's a high possibility that it might be in a hidden state. 

Before someone finds the secret of the released or undiscovered guardian beasts, I should capture them as soon as possible.

But the only problem is the barrier that was placed around the kingdoms which will allow incoming but not outgoing as long as the war is going on… First, I need to see which wars are over."

Wil then opened the world forums and opened the system announcement section.

There, the War table was posted.

He saw the names of Llyne, Reverie, Uflenor, Eiron, Pirn, Sturin, Tirion, Baernarta, and Praiton are greyed out, meaning they lost the war.

Looking at it, Wil grabbed his chin and once again, fell into thoughts, "So, there's Pirn, Sturin, Baernarta, Tirion, and Praiton too, huh…

It's just two days and mere than one-fourth number of the kingdoms are already out of race… That's out of the ordinary." A frown appeared on Wil.

He then mumbled, "I guess there are more legend class users than I thought. Only they can make a difference."

Wil's eyes once again fell on the map, "so far, 23 of them are eliminated. That leaves only 11. Out of them, how many are discovered and how many are hidden… I also need to figure out them.

The killed ones will take 7 days to resurrect. So, I need to divide them into two groups. One, Undiscovered, and two, that are discovered and in the hands of the Kings.

First, I will go after the undiscovered, and then, I can go after the others. Ugh… It's getting too complicated. Why bother to waste time analyzing things? Isn't there someone who can just provide me such information?" 

He decided to ask Akiko.

But, since it is late at night, he decided to leave a message. When she's up, she can reply to him.

Wil took out his phone and opened the messenger app. He clicked on Akiko's name and typed the message too. But just when he was about to send the message, suddenly Luoyang's image appeared in his mind.

Hesitation filled his face. No matter how much he tried to ignore it, his conscience made him feel guilty about his act.

He quickly deleted it and went back to click on Kiyumi's name.

He rewrote a message, asking for a favor.

Back at Ares city, Kiyumi was working late, looking at the reports of the war and analyzing the situation.

"Hmm? Williard?" She was surprised to get a private message from Wil. Ever since Akiko went to the Athledon, he hardly contacted her. Every message of his went through only Akiko.

She wondered whether it is something important.

After all, one wouldn't text a person at this late-night for nothing, unless they can't asleep or drunk.

She opened the message.

"The list of guardian beasts and the information on owners?" She was taken aback. "Is he planning something big?"

Previously, her uncle said about his plan on forming a ten-guild alliance. So, upon his order, she scattered her spies all over the world to gather the information and collected them but now, she felt someone else is interested in them too…

She wondered what might be the reason. Was he planning to do the same? But her uncle mentioned that Wil's guild is also involved in his plan. Then, why is he doing this?

Is Wil plan to form his own alliance, perhaps? A number of theories appeared in her head.

After thinking for a long time, she sent a message. 

Kiyumi: We still haven't figured out every name. Our list is incomplete. There are kingdoms that we need to narrow down the suspects. If it's okay with you, I can send you the names that we confirmed.

However, she received an unexpected reply from Wil.

Wil: No, I'm not interested in the players. I need the list of kingdoms where the guardian beasts are either undiscovered or taken by NPC.

"This guy… His ambition is indeed higher…" Kiyumi muttered under her breath as soon as she read his message. She immediately realized his aim. She confronted him about it.

Kiyumi: You wish to capture the guardian beasts, aren't you?

And Wil didn't hesitate to confirm it too.

Wil: Yes.

He knew that a smart person like her will easily figure it out. So, there's no reason to hide it. What he needs to worry about them being knowing the secret of guardian beasts.

If people knew that the undiscovered beasts are still available in the wild zone, somewhere hidden, then, it will become another war. After all, by now, people already knew the power of guardian beasts.

Getting the confirmation from Wil, Kiyumi then sent him a reply. She wanted to analyze his thoughts to discover his motive.

Kiyumi: But, it will take a long time until the war will be over.

Wil: I know. I'm just free. So, I wanted to know.

Receiving such a lazy reply, Kiyumi wondered whether she was thinking too much.

Since he wasn't asking about the player names, she happily shared the information thinking that it isn't a piece of confidential information either way…

"Good. There are still 9 of them available." As soon as Wil looked at the list, a smile appeared on his face.

He didn't waste any time stepping down from the bed and walked to the capsule.

*Welcome to War Online*

He appeared in his Mansion at Deloris.

With the streets silent, Wil walked in the streets, equipping his Mask of tranquility, and night vision goggles. 

Entering the Teleportation formation in the temple, He clicked on Zidor kingdom's capital city, located in South Zalfari continent.

*Ding! 12 gold coins has been deducted from inventory.

*Ding! You are being teleported to Zidor city.
