288 Savior of Saviors Council (1/2)

Chapter 29: Savior of Savior's Council

Life Guild

I decided to start another adventure and it looks like everyone is up for it as usual. Not even a question of what happened or a word about our failed adventure. I know they have a lot of things in mind but I guess they don't want to open up such topic after the others left.

We decided to left the guild to the Elves. They accepted the task of protecting our guild in exchange for everything we've done for them which is protect them from monsters and other guilds wanting to make them as their slaves. They are with us for a while now and we invite some of them from time to time to come with us with random missions and pay them with different stuff like materials for their gears. A lot of them already managed to reach Rare Bosses like the Elf guy but I still don't know the real power of the Elf Queen. I haven't really seen her fight but I feel something from her.

South Forest, Near Order of Light's North Road Road

We just passed the South Forest and now on the path towards the Order of Light City. I still remember the times when we are still lowbies and trying to go to the depths of the forest to find a dungeon and we thought that it contains some treasures but in the end, we found a Legendary Boss, not really a great experience but we were able to befriend the elves because of it.

(Same dungeon where Zia got her weapon soul)

”Guys, I think we're forgetting something...” Elou said and we looked at each other... then we realized...

”We forgot to gear up!” He shouted and he's right! We're still wearing our beginner's gears...

”It doesn't really matter. Let's take it as a handicap against the swamp monsters. Haha!” I said cheerfully. I'm not sure how strong the swamp monsters are but I'm sure they're not that strong...

”Well if you say so. Just don't get killed guys.” Elou suggested.

”Tell that to Scy.” Petula!

”Yeah, Octopus dies a lot!” Osia... why are you even here.

”You guys know I'm a glass cannon. Now I have to train again and get all those levels back... ” I replied while scratching my head.

”Don't... be mean to Scy...” Akko said and she looks really embarrassed.

”Stop protecting Scy, Miss Akko. It's his fault for being too reckless. Jeez...” I already know that Zia...

and the random talks continued... I don't really need to be reminded how reckless I am though, yet I am glad that they're with me.

We passed through the City and now we're moving towards the Greenleaf Village. We're moving fast while everyone is enjoying their travel time. It's really peaceful lately and I can tell that not a single monster wants to mess with us as well. Players we pass by take a look at us as well, probably thinking ”Why are they wearing beginner gears”. Guards from Beginner's area were alerted by our numbers but it seems like they recognized us and let us pass as well.

Other Side Guild's Gate

It's been hours and we finally reached the Other Side guild. The last time I came here was when I asked for an alliance with them but in the end, they didn't help us but now I knew what happened so it doesn't matter anymore.

”What brings you here, Scythus.” It's Arvin. He's the one annoying one in Jay's leaders but he looks capable.

”We're just passing by and don't forget about our deal before that we can freely go South. We want to travel the Swamps.” I explained.

”The swamps huh... We tried it before but before we can even enter, a lot of us already died. I heard you went on an adventure a few weeks ago but it looks like I now know what happened.” He replied.

”No need to mock-”

”Come, let's get you some supplies. Jay is waiting for you guys.” He seems to be different from before.

”You sure change how you welcome people,” I replied.

”We're in a different situation now. Last time, our leader just randomly joined an alliance with a new small guild trying to prove something but now, I guess, I don't have to act like our leader made a bad decision for letting you guys in.” He calmly said. I guess he has a point.

”Noted. You guys sure did a lot of recruitment huh. Your numbers doubled since the last time I came here.” I looked around while we enter the guild.

”With Order of Light currently in a mess right now, I guess a lot of their members decided to join other guilds instead. We got lots of recruits but seeing Chara happy with you guys, I guess we're good with it as well.” Chara was with them for a long time but I guess she made the right choice. She's really a good addition to our guild.

Other Side's Guild Hall

We reached their guild hall and they're in a different atmosphere here than last time. Everyone is busy with something and I can tell that they're trying to improve everyone's overall power. I guess a lot of them trained a lot too.

”Hey Scy, it's been a while. How's your adventure?” Jay asked though I am sure he already knew what happened.

”We miserably failed but it looks like Other Side Guild is not the only one that is away from publicity. We found few people there, stronger than my whole guild combined.” I explained.
