There had been a whopping one hundred and eighty-nine requests that led theed within the Proam Allied Mercenary Guild, who had branches all over entire Versailles Continent
The Black Swords even owned a castle and a village They were the best Mercenaries, and lived up to their reputation
It was a guild consisting of thousands of icians and even had connections to nobles
The uniforms of Black Sword Mercenaries were embellished with their distinctive symbol, a jet-black crossed swords Other Mercenaries who saw it expressed respect
Sih to garner great respect froeneral players
Michel had access to the Polam Alliance Mercenary Guild's records
“Unfinished commissions If we can finish theer”
Michel gloith pride
Not only was he level 431, but a considerable nued within the Mercenaries
He was a celebrity who appeared on television, and his relationshi+p with other guilds was good Whenever occasional conflicts occurred, even if he solved them with brute force, there was no complaint afterward
In the Versailles Continent, there were ered people Countless people desired the power of the Black Sword Mercenaries, so their influence continued to grow
While reading the Proam Alliance Mercenary Guild’s records, Michel stuht his eye
“Former Mercenary Guild Master Smith The man who made the Proam Alliance Mercenary Guild the best in Versailles So no one has seen him since he retired?”
Kyaaaaaaak!
Hehe!
It was the desperate struggle between the Human army and the De at Odin’s walls
The short and long-legged De like they were about to collapse, closely resembled zombies
“Fire!”
A rain of arrows flen fro any arrows
The Resurrection Church Priests raised their wands
“Regors, go forth!”
“Charge Trae elephants or mammoths ran forward
The sors’ paths were kicked and went flying into the air, but they paid no attention to thee forward
Kuuoooooooo!
Small Demonic Spirits blew horns, shrieked horribly, and stamped their feet
“Archers, what the hell are you doing, FIRE!”
“Stop those Regors!”
It was a nightmarish Demonic Spirit for Odin
Many Huor on the Plains of the Great War
Taaang!
Arrows poured out froors deflected the arroith their thick grey skin
Grar!
Kweeeeeee!
Mediu under the Regors’ bellies and behind their ru shrieks
There was only 200 or so meters left until they reached Odin’s walls
The Knights defending Odin knew the Deht to exhaustion could cross the distance in an instant
“Shoot ?”
”We're replenishi+ng our Mana through Meditation,” replied Kiaician of the Prosperity Guild
”What Meditation are you doing in a time like this! Don't you know there won't even be a chance to use ic if the walls fall? Quickly, stop those bastards even if you have to use all your Mana!”
The Magicians cast spells from the walls of Fort Odin
CRAAAAAsh!+
The ground was upturned and thundering lightning ca roar as flaic arrows exploded towards the Demonic Spirits!
It was an attack so powerful, it transformed the terrain and razed the whole area
The Deors, didn’t survive Where the ic had swept by, all that reo pick theonna die There’s no profit since we can only guard the walls”
The Mercenaries on the wall gruood itereed because going down the walls was no different than a suicide act
The Deh the n of decrease in the huge Dely fierce Demonic Spirits, Fort Odin was like a candle in a storm
Daymond shook his Bone Staff
“Your resistance will end here”
Suban folloith a laugh
“It is today at last”
“Yeah Deliberately restraining our offense so we could gather our forces has paid off Today, ill penetrate Fort Odin”
If they could take down Fort Odin, then seizing Aidern Kingdom would just be a e granary and armory, the Demonic Spirit Army would be better fed and armed
The Allied Forces may have been formed, but those who hadn’t personally faced the Denitude of the situation The expeditionary force was said to have been deployed fro ti!
The prestigious guilds and lords hadn’t come to their senses Before the Resurrection Arle one of the Kingdoms were peaceful and their only enemies were monsters
They were deluded by the fantasy that Fort Odin’s walls would defend the inside the fort The Allied Forces were breaking apart due to the distress and horror
Daymond pointed his Bone Staff at the castle
“Keep attacking!”
More Regors ran towards Fort Odin There were also Goblins were riding on their backs
The weak Goblins were not easily motivated, but with money and the Demonic Army as bait, they had been recruited as ht of the Deer
The Goblins raised their shoddy Spears as they danced upon the Regors
Day the Versailles Continent, was nicknamed the ‘Prince of Darkness’
He an existence of chaos, seeking to stain the Versailles Continent with Demonic Spirits
Jefferson walked in his suit and tie towards the conference room with a frown on his face
“Today won’t be easy either”
“hello, Mr Jefferson”
“It has been awhile, Miss Johanna”
Jefferson a wo them, dark shadows returned to his face
The company he worked at was Global JKI Financial Group in New York!
As was typical of America, they had one motto with their speculative funds:
‘Invest in places that make money’
Resources, people, companies, and countries
There weren’t any restrictions on their investments
They had been quiet for so loss However, they were once again increasing their capital as of late
Jefferson, the Executive Director responsible for Asia, presided over awith the major shareholders who held the co on an American and European infrastructure coypt’s oilfields was gradually yielding profit, and the invest promise
The problem was in Asia
The shareholders were annoyed because the returns were too high
“Our share ratio of Unicorn is currently approximately 72 With current market price, it’s estimated to be 168 billion dollars”
“The return of our investment must be over a hundred fold,” said Benjamin Chandler, who had served as a Vice President of the United States
“Yes The return on investhest return from all the companies we’ve seen until now”
“Why didn’t you invest a greater amount in Unicorn beforehand?”
A profit of 130 tireedy Chandler The other Directors and Shareholders also criticized Jefferson’s mistake
“We et opportunities soon grows into profit?”
“I cannot believe you were careless with our company until Unicorn developed hed up an excuse
“We also tried to take action, but the stock value jumped too suddenly”
“Stock prices have risen by 130 ti!”
“Formerly, it was an unproven enterprise The press and Areater investn investment for Unicorn?”
“It is about 194”
JKI Financial Group, the California Government Employees Pension Corporation, and other investment companies had a combined total of nearly 194
“What do you think about co with Unicorn Corporation before it gets any bigger?”
Seizing control with the use of astronomical funds!
It was a remark no one but Chandler would dare to say
The back of Jefferson’s shi+rt beca the idea, but I think it will be a very difficult venture”
“For noill get the funds”
“Even with the money, it is close to impossible”
As Royal Road hit upon its initial success, Unicorn was already experiencing unbelievable growth
The stock price skyrocketed in a globally unprecedented her heights
There were no sellers either Those ned stocks were certain it will still continue to rise, so no one wanted to sell The money they received yearly froh to live off of for a lifetime
In contrast, people anted to buy stocks were trying to buy them no matter the cost
Stock traders ide tried to buy just one Unicorn stock, but exploded in anger because no one illing to sell
“How can there be a stock like this?”
Chandler felt like his sto
Even now, Unicorn’s stock was soaring with no limits, and the current price per stock had become the h price, no one is trading And if ru trades would atrophy”
Jefferson was sorry he could only inform the major shareholders of the bad news, but it couldn’t be helped
Moreover, Unicorn Corporation had a vast amount of money
In fact, several finance companies had united and revealed their covert hostile intentions towards Unicorn They shook Unicorn through the press and credit co to buy stocks
Unicorn’s response to those actions were drastic
They used overflowing funds to drastically expand their shares in foreign media and financial coement and forcibly replaced board n financial coe losses they suffered because of the economic power Unicorn Corporation possessed
Unicorn was the largest stockholder of a foreign investment bank
A monthly fee of 200 thousand Won (~200)!
It was only possible for Unicorn Corporation, as throwing away astronomical funds everyconcluded without any results
The major shareholders pulled up their heavy bodies
“I’ on connecting to Royal Road today as well?”
“Certainly I even bought a villa near the sea”
“What level are you, Mr Chandler”
“290 Do you want to go hunting together?”
“Sure Please helplevel 200”
