Chapter 166

The number of guild members had reached 35 people, including the guild management members. The number had increased by three times than before Hiro left them for playing solo.

Hiro felt a bit nervous when he saw all of them. However, in contrast to Hiro, the new members couldn’t wait for this day to happen soon. They had been waiting to meet their leader.

Wheelie and the members who had the life skill ability to cook were busy in the kitchen, cooking food for the party. Because almost all of them were players from America, the food that they would cook also adjusted to their tastes.

Hiro didn’t mind that. He adapted quickly. Although the food in America was very different from the food he ate every day during his life in Japan, his tongue could accept it all well.

“So, have you prepared your victory speech, Hiro?” Jacob started the conversation. Hiro glanced at him. He felt grateful that Jacob had indirectly saved him from feeling awkward.

“I have prepared it. You’ll have to listen to it carefully later.” Hiro felt his throat parched because lately he rarely spoke, except talking to the NPCs to carry out the quest.

“I really can’t wait, Boss,” said BigShow, holding up the bottle of beer he had just opened. Even though it was still noon, getting drunk in the LSO game wouldn’t have any effect on the real body. It was the most favourite thing for many people. Even players who had never drank alcohol in the real world could experience it without fearing that their health would deteriorate.

“I really can’t wait. I wonder how the PKs will react, seeing Everlasting’s leader win the launching event.” Cara had changed to be a more talkative person. The girl just needed more time to show her true nature in this circle.

Hiro smiled after hearing Cara’s words. He knew why the girl was so impatient to wait for the PKs’ reaction.

Even though he wasn’t in the guild base, Hiro had seen the announcement multiple times, stating that the PKs had been eliminated by the system. And the ones who eliminated the PKs were none other than players who had the guild name ‘Everlasting’ on their avatars.

Hiro did not expect that they would actually do as Jacob said when the guild hadn’t been formed yet. Saying that they would become heroes like power rangers and eradicate the PKs in the game.

Cara and Jacob had united in carrying out the vision and mission.

“You did well too, Cara.” Hiro also felt proud of what the girl had accomplished. She had grown quite rapidly.

The one that stood out the most was Jacob. Previously, he didn’t want to be near PKs, let alone deal with them. Hiro still vividly remembered how Jacob prevented him from interfering when he met the PKs for the first time who called themselves WynterRain fanatic fans.

Even though Hiro still didn’t want to talk too much because he was in a bad mood, the Everlasting guild members were very active in telling what they had experienced during Hiro’s absence. It was either a personal experience or a shared experience.

With various types of stories, starting with serious stories to stories full of jokes, Hiro could feel the atmosphere inside the building he had bought with the money of the first members was getting warmer. And most importantly, their bond as family had got stronger.

Time flew fast when people got the best chance in life. The sky had turned dark, and a bonfire was lit in the empty courtyard in front of the guild base.

They waited impatiently. The food should not be touched before the announcement was made. Even though Hiro had asked them to have dinner first, they refused, saying that it couldn’t be called a celebration if it was celebrated before the announcement.

Ding!

A transparent panel suddenly appeared in front of all the players, announcing the information they had been waiting for.

[For this event, the Battle Rating will determine the ranking on the leaderboard]

[The time to increase the Battle Rating is only 5 minutes before the system stops counting the upgrade]

“Exalted and Immortal Knights are nothing compared to Everlasting!” RobinHood02, who was already half drunk from drinking too much alcohol, exclaimed in a loud voice.

“Yesss!”

“We are the strongest!”

“Yes!”

The atmosphere in the Everlasting guild base became boisterous again when the announcement they had been waiting for was only 10 minutes left.

“For the next update of the guild war, we will dominate it!” cried RobinHood02, pouring the alcohol over his head. The cold alcohol managed to cool his body, that felt hot.

“Nightfall. Check the leaderboard.” Noah didn’t take his eyes off the HUD of the system displaying the leaderboard. The man frowned at the sight of the odd number skyrocketing like LSC against the dollar.

Hiro did as Noah said and saw what happened to the Leaderboard.

[All Server]

[Sort based on Battle Rating]

[Rank 1. NightFall. Raider. Everlasting. Lucifer Descendant. Battle Rating 149,890]

[Rank 2. TheNinja. Assassin. Immortal Knights. Nightwalkers. Battle Rating 99,500]

One thing that made Hiro arched an eyebrow in surprise was the names of the players who were ranked 3 and below. The leaderboard continued to refresh automatically because there was one name that rapidly rose from the tenth rank. It continued to rise non-stop, as if the system had a bug.

“What happened?”

“A cheater?”
