Chapter 978 - Pets 1 (1/2)
The beginning all of this started when Haru and Tabane caused trouble in Nerima ward, the headquarters of the ”Prominence”. Both of them had defeated both Blood Leopard and Cherry Rook, who were among the strongest members of the ”Prominence” right on their turf which caused a displease from the ”Prominence”.
After that day, the ”Prominence” tried to get revenge against Haru and Tabane, of course, Charlotte and Sumire also included in that revenge, alas, all of the members which came to challenge the four of them had lost.
Tabane also often came to Nerima ward when the Red King wasn't in place and blatantly challenged them right on their turf, defeating the members of the ”Prominence” without mercy.
It could be said that both the ”Four Beasts” and ”Prominence” had become enemies to each other. Oh, right, the ”Four Beasts” were in the past and now, they have changed their name to ”Pets”.
”Oh-ho, your Legion name is ”Pets”?” Scarlet Rain asked, seeming to mock them.
After Haru, Tabane, Sumire, and Charlotte returned to Ikebukuro, they saw a lot of players surrounding them. They knew those players very well since they had defeated those players several times in the past week.
It was Haru, Tabane, Sumire, and Charlotte's first time to see the Red King, even if they challenged the members of ”Prominence”, they had never met the Red King directly. Their first impression of the Red King was small.
The size of Red King, Scarlet Rain, was very small. Though they knew that her size was a deception, considering her ability.
Haru glanced at Tabane and she gave him a nod. He looked at Scarlet Rain again and said, ”Thank you, and yes. Our Legion name is ”Pets”. Thank you for coming far away to congratulate us. How about we celebrate it together at the kebab stall in that intersection?”
”.....”
They were speechless hearing Haru's words. They were wondering whether this guy was stupid or pretend to be stupid.
”Ha? Are you stupid? We're coming to have revenge!” Scarlet Rain looked at Haru with disdain.
”I see....”
Haru sighed in regret and asked, ”So we can't celebrate together?”
”Of course not, duh! You've killed a lot of our members! So I'll take that life of yours now!”
Scarlet Rain folded her arms then her guild members started to get ready for the battle.
”So, we're the enemy?”
”Yes, we're the enemy! So now att--”
”Change Terrain!”
Suddenly the concrete ground started to transform into an ice ground that covered almost the entire street.
Blood Leopard frowned when she saw the ground started to turn into ice since she had a very bad memory of it.
If it was normal ice ground, then they wouldn't be surprised, but they heard a loud crack sound that kept resounding.
Scarlet Rain had a bad feeling about this ice ground, but suddenly everyone on the ”Prominence” saw something unbelievable.
Haru, Sumire, and Charlotte stepped into a steel plate before floating from the ground.
”F, Fly?!”
In the ”brain burst”, there weren't any players who were able to fly to the sky. The closest one to the sky would be a ”Sky Raker” who had disappeared from the game, but this time, it appeared once again, Sumire had brought a large steel plate from the dungeon before for a precaution and levitated it to bring all of them to a safe place.
”Hehehe, goodbye, everyone!”
Tabane's voice attracted everyone toward her before they saw her stomping the ground very hard.
*Bang!*
