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 Crone’s 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.

“You’ve 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 couldn’t help but frown when he thought about something.

‘I can’t reach Kaistra.’

Since that time, he wasn’t able to contact Kaistra at all. What was worse was that Rak also disappeared along with him. However, it didn’t 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.

“That’s why I’m asking you, why did you follow me in my bounty hunt?”

Ace had suddenly joined Crow’s 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 that’s at least 60 pyeong? I also have to prepare step by step from now on so I can raise my kids well. I don’t 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 Coron’s 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 Crow’s eyes made contact.

“Coron!”

“......!”

Coron’s 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 Ace’s body and when he reached forward, a chain made of fire latched onto Coron’s ankle.

Crackle!

“Keuaaaack! Wh, why are you guys doing this to me?! I didn’t 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 don’t 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 Coron’s actions were extremely detestable and condemnable.

At that moment, Coron’s body suddenly went limp. And along with that, Ace was suddenly notified.

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

[You have become a Chaotic User.]

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?]

Genie’s 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 couldn’t 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 Ructo’s 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 I’ll leave the guild for a while.]

[Genie: ......Huh?]

Genie’s 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 Ben’s master, the person that held the title of Vice Lord. Therefore, it wouldn’t 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, what’s 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.

‘You’re 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 Guild’s 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 there’s 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. I’m Bachran Guild’s Guild Master, Crone. This time we are asking your guild members Crow and Ace for an apology for ‘PK’ing one of our guild members, Coron for no reason at all.]

“What the hell, this mXXXXfXXX?”

Genie was so flustered that she couldn’t help but laugh derisively.

Are you trying to do something that wouldn’t work at all? So you’re really just at this level, huh?

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

[Crone: Ah, as expected, you really wouldn’t apologize? ^^ Then it will be a guild war.]

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

[Crone: We’re almost there anyway. Let’s get started.]

“......?”

Genie tilted her head in confusion.

Then......

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

A huge explosion shook the whole town.

TL’s corner!

Crone had raised all the flags that he could raise. Let’s watch Minhyuk go and slaughter their guild. KEK. Damn. So hateful.
