Japan's Nayuta Guild knew that they were the weakest out the three guilds. That truth was especially hard to swallow for all of Japan. The Nayuta Guild had to take this chance to come out on top no matter what. The guild had decided to fly straight for the mountain and parachute out instead of landing at the airport.
”Those sons of bitches!” It had seemed that the Nayuta Guild's dungeon hijacking would succeed. They spent more golden rings than the other guilds to get here and brought 6,000 elite members... but ran into a problem once they arrived at the entrance. A problem that consisted of two teams of fifty devas.
”I am Yan Shou, captain of the Cheng Long Guild's Recon team 4. By orders of our guild master, we are here to prevent entry to the Tomb. You'll have to go through us if you wish to enter.”
”I am Jung Inhyuk, captain of the Sunbin Guild's Vanguard team. By orders of our vice-master, we are also here to prevent entry to the Tomb. You'll have to go through us as well if you wish to enter.”
Okamoto, the guild master of the Nayuta Guild, looked at the hundred devas that stood in his way and swore. Sure, there were only a hundred of them. His six thousand elite soldiers could mow through them.
”Get these damned hyenas out of….Shit!” Okamoto slammed his Blade of Conviction to the ground and swore. He couldn't give the order to get rid of the hundred devas in front of him. The two teams were blocking the entrance to the tomb seemed damn friendly.
There was no way he could antagonize both guilds. If it were only one team from one guild standing in front of him, he would have given the order and dealt with whatever repercussions that came after. But that was impossible if he did that to both guilds.
”Since when did they get so friendly?!”
”It seems…someone may have leaked our plans to the Cheng Long and the Sunbin Guilds,” Taise, the Nayuta head of Intelligence, replied.
Okamoto ground his teeth in anger. If that was the case, then it was his own fault and his own shortcomings that allowed the intel to be leaked.
”Ha…fine! How do we deal with this then?”
”Well…”
”If the both guilds are going to ally themselves like that, it won't be wise to do anything that'll…”
”Fuck! I know that much. I'm asking how to go around them! I'm not acting this way because I'm afraid of those punks; I care more about what's behind them!” This whole thing had become one huge headache.

All they could do now was wait. Six hours passed before the main forces of the Cheng Long and the Sunbin Guild appeared.
”Well, well, would you look at that? The infamously lazy Okamoto actually crawled out of his hole and made an appearance. He must really want that Rank 10 Random Chest.”
”I'm sure anyone would act that way for a Rank 10.”
Wai Chung and Song Myungsoo came up to Okamoto, teasing him as they did.
”Haha. Well, that stings. We only found out a bit later than everyone else and decided that this was the fastest way to get here,” Okamoto said with a beaming smile. Not that long ago, he was spitting insults at them that would put sailors to shame.
”Besides, I've heard that the Tomb is quite difficult. Don't you think it would be a fine idea to team up and clear the quest together? We can't have a non-Asian guild clear it when the dungeon was discovered in Asia.”
”I don't know. It does sound like a good idea, but is there really a need to team up? What do you think, Myungsoo?”
”The treasure is right there; is there really such a need to include another hand in this?”
”Hahahaha. You're completely right. There's barely enough for us, so why would we want to split it even more; especially with a guild that is this weak?”
”Are you seriously insulting me and my guild here?” Okamoto asked in a low voice as his smile quickly disappeared.
”Well, at least you're quick on the draw.”
”I'm still the guild master of a powerful guild. I need to at least have that.” However, Okamoto's threat fell on empty ears. Wai Chung and Song Myungsoo talked down at him, just like they had in the past.
The Nayuta Guild members grew furious as they watched their guild master stand there, taking the insults. One man drew his weapon and shouted at the two foreign guild masters in anger. ”Do you two wish to see blood today?”
”Blood? Bwahaha. I wonder who will be the first to spill blood. Cheng Long Guild, hear me!”
”Sir!”
”Prepare for battle! Your targets are the Nayuta Guild in front of you!”
”Yes sir!”
”Sunbin Guild, hear me!”
”Sir!”
”Prepare for battle as well. Your targets are the Nayuta Guild!”
”Yes sir!”
The Nayuta Guild was the ones that were insulted and were rightfully furious, but as soon as the other guilds drew their weapons, that anger vanished. There was no way they could win this fight. The Nayuta guild members who had drawn their weapons sheepishly put them away.
”Must you do this to us?”
”Of course I must. A Rank 10 item is at stake here. That's why you scampered all the way here.”
Song Myungsoo quietly watched as Okamoto and Wai Chung conversed. The obvious victor here was Wai Chung.
Song Myungsoo hadn't completely allied himself with the Cheng Long Guild, but also had no intention of allying with the Nayuta Guild. It would be easier to get the quest reward if he let the two fight each other first.
”I'll ask you one more time. What will you do now?”
Okamoto ground his teeth in anger. ”Is the Sunbin Guild truly going to trust the Cheng Long Guild? Are you actually going to trust Wai Chung?”
”The only thing we believe in is our skill.”
Okamoto truly felt lost at Song Myungsoo's reply. In the end, the both guilds treated him this way because he was weak.
”There will be a day of reckoning; just you wait.”
