461 Revelation (1/2)
Now, when he was warned by Rulf's intuition, he suppressed his anxiousness and started thinking about the past events that were related to demons.
”I felt the same when I rescued the demon killer mercenary squad members,” the old guild master finally started talking after thinking for a moment before saying,
”One, why did the demons try to move the demon killer mercenary squad members away from the cursed abyss?”
”Two, why did they start the invasion from the middle section of the cursed wilderness?”
”More importantly, why are the demons so careless this time and revealed their presence to some mercenaries in the cursed wilderness which made us issue bonus missions?”
”And last one, why did they want all of our top mercenary captains away from the guild and wanted them to enter the cursed wilderness but not cursed abyss?”
Finally, after saying all the questions in his mind to Rulf, the old guild master took a deep breath and looked into Rulf's eyes before asking him, ”Can you think of why they did any of the questions I asked?”
”That's right! I have the same questions in my mind but can't think of any particular reason for their actions,” Rulf had already thought about those questions that the old guild master had asked; however, he shook his head as though he didn't know the exact reason for their action.
Every time, the demon started the invasion from any one of the human towns and didn't waste much time before moving to the other towns and cities.
However, now they had chosen the middle-section of the cursed wilderness as their starting point and before that, they even revealed their existence which alerted the mercenary guild.
That, in turn, made many mercenary squads enter the cursed wilderness and even the two top captains, Demon Killer and Blood Rose were sent to clear the demon in the cursed wilderness and cursed abyss.
”That's right! Now that I think about it, they wanted to destroy my mercenary guild,”
All of a sudden, the guild master thought about some reason and became angry while releasing the powerful aura from his body that even made Rulf shiver for a second before getting used to it.
”Guild master, calm down...calm down. It is not good for your health to become angry,” Rulf hurriedly tried to calm the old guild master while withstanding the huge pressure from the guild master's body.
The old guild master was only angry for a moment but all the trees around them were destroyed and not even a blade of grass was not seen within a 100 meters of radius around them.
”Phew…,”
Rulf only scolded the old man because he was worried about him as he knew that the old man in front of him was known for great anger. What's more, his wounds were still not healed from the fight, he had with the sixth demon king.
”Hey, brat. Who are you calling an old man?” The guild master smacked the back of Rulf's head before saying, ”As for my anger, how can I stay calm when those lowly demons were trying to destroy my guild.”
The mercenary guild was the blood and sweat of the old guild master, who worked very hard for many years and finally got permission from the king of the Zrochester province to build a guild in Goldcrest town.
