Chapter 391 Guild Conflict

Countless lifeless bodies from the bounty hunters are littered on the ground. The last one I stabbed in the abdomen is a female assassin who quickly died as fast as she arrived and attacked. The other bystander players have no other reason to stay on the streets but most of them are just spectating the battle. In their eyes, they are waiting for someone who is strong enough to take me down.

If they thought the tactic of attacking me and whittling my HP slowly will work, that will only work if I am no longer able to heal myself using my healing skills and if I don't have bottles of potions in my inventory. However, both of those options are something I possess, it is clear that they are just wasting their time.

Due to the number of players I killed and for all the players who tried to attack me ended up with, the attacks have diminished. I also did not hold back and killed every single player who attacks me. I didn't spare any of them or underestimate them as that is an ingredient to ruin in the end.

The bounty hunter players who got my bounty are all different players. Sure, I spotted multiple players who belonged to the Blue Sky Guild but there are also a lot of other players who are not affiliated to the guild and belong to other guilds or don't belong to any other groups. That only means he went to the black market and made dealings with the Hitman Agency to post a bounty on me.

The attacks have indeed slowed down a little bit but it is still ongoing and some of the players who are also after the bounty put on my head are already lurking nearby, waiting for the opportunity to fight back. I could snipe them but I decided not to do that to wait until they make a strike. I wanted them to think I haven't noticed them.

Not too long after that, another bunch of players appeared and I recognized most of them. However, they are just regular players that are always hanging out on the Hitman Agency and are well known to take down their bounties 100% without giving them any chances that they will be able to keep themselves alive.

This is going to take a bit of time, there is no way they will be stopping anytime soon.

While chaos is occurring in the capital due to Bladeheart, the Vice President who is now being shunned by players due to the news is currently being helped by Diena. Out of all the higher-ups of the guild, Diena is the only loyal member of the guild who sticks together with him.

"Dammit, why is nothing going according to my plan?! Why is it all getting foiled when it's almost done and accomplished?! I don't understand what is happening now!"

Diena is just standing behind him, just looking at him without saying any word. As much as she wanted to leave the guild, she didn't want to be labeled as a traitor. Despite her pure disgust towards this man after discovering what he is really doing behind everyone's back, she is disgusted that she has a crush on this guy a few days ago. Not only that but he is becoming more pathetic as time goes by.

Just when he is about to wallow in sadness and despair due to his failures, a player entered the guild house with a huge grin on his mouth while watching at the Vice President. It was none other than Kaisar.

"Kaisar?! What are you doing here?"

"What? I am not even allowed to visit a friend who was already in trouble of being pummeled by one of my enemies?"

"You bastard. Do you enjoy my failures so much?"

"Haha, well, its not me who was experiencing the situation right now so I am not going to say anything about it. However, who said I can't enjoy it?"

"You bastard! Get out of here!" the Vice President pulls out his staff, ready to blast out magic spells towards him.

"Heh, I am not afraid of you. However, I am not here to fight. I just visited an old friend who was already being pulled in the rug by many controvercies. I didn't expect you to have that side, man. Makes me have second thoughts going here due to your tendencies."

"You..."

Then, Kaisar turned to look at Diena. "Are you going to keep on staying with him even though the guild is already on the verge of collapse?"

"Huh?" Diena was surprised when Kaisar started talking to me.

"I know you. You are a good chronomancer and you deserve to be in a much better guild. Why stay in a guild that will no longer have any chances of recovering?"

Diena looked at the Vice President and as much as he was pitiful right now, Kaisar indeed has a point and there is no need for her to keep on staying to a creep that targets same gender as him but also an offender that he really hate. However, is it really fine for her to do that?

"Are you hesitating because you think you are going to betray him and the guild? Why would you hesitate if he already betrayed you all? He didn't say anything about this matter before on you and the other members who quit right? You guys only found out after the controversy went live and trending."

The vice president looked at Diena in anger and aimed the staff at her. "Don't you dare quit! You will regret it!"

Kaisar started laughing when he saw how desperate the guy is.

"Wow, look at you, you are even threatening your last loyal member of your guild. I know most of the people left in your guild are just waiting for the guild's collapse because they are afraid of offending you but if you really are a good leader, you should already allow them to get out and allow them to do their own decisions. It's not like you are even meant to help them anyway."

"Just you wait! Once you quit the guild, I will make sure you will regret it for the rest of your life, Diena. And you, Kaisar, stay out of this matter. This is my problem and you stay out of it!"

"Ha! How about no? Diena right? Don't worry and you can quit this sh*tty guild just fine without him being a creep like this. Don't worry about his threats. Go to the building on the address that I will sent you and ask for my name. You will receive help and protection from me. Perhaps, you can also join my guild, its awesome, no creeps like him and there are various of people that are good people, both male and female. Perhaps you can even find your man of your life this way too."

"Kaisar!" Vice President fired several fireballs towards Kaisar, prompting the warning of the system. As for Kaisar, he immediately erected the [Mana Barrier] to stop the attack from hitting him.

The Guardians appeared behind the Vice President and started to restrain him with several chains on his hands, feet, body and neck. All of them are engraved with runes and whenever he tries to escape to break off from them, his body seems to be getting heavier. Diena was shocked to see what is happening. After all, she has never seen anything like this happening before and this should be her first time seeing the Guardians to appear and restrain a person.

"Remember my friend, there is no point keeping your anger like that. Bladeheart is someone you can't defeat in conventional method and due to him, you have already failed. I may have been beaten and humiliated by him but I never sink this low to get him. I mean, you are just wasting your time. If I were you, I would quit the game and rather focus more on the business of your father. Due to the controversy, a lot of the business partners of your father seems to have been having a time they are hesitating. Perhaps if you do, maybe you can save the fall of your company much sooner."

After giving out an advice, Kaisar leaves along with the other players who were accompanying him, leaving Diena stunned on what was happening before her. The Guardians were rough on the Vice President and perhaps due to the restraints that seems to be imbued with magical words of runes, it seems like these runes are preventing the guy from doing anything stupid.

[Level 5 threat detected. Crime coefficient, level 3. Solution: Forcefully log out the assailant and prevent the assailant from being able to log in. Duration: 1 week.]

As soon as the Guardians stated those words, the chains on the poor guy tightened and before he can scream for help, his body disintegrated and disappeared.

[Mission Complete. Returning to the assigned post.]

With the deed done, the Guardians disappeared, leaving the shocked Diena.

"Perhaps it was time to indeed quit this guild for good," Diena muttered to herself as she sits down on the vacant chair, contemplating the decisions she made on her life.
