“Did you like our holiday?”

Ji Soo smiled at Ji Song’s question.

“Of course I did! We didn’t have to prepare anything, so we could just enjoy the holiday!”

“Same! I also liked that we didn’t have to book anything.”

Soo Hyuk thought as he looked at his excitable parents.

‘It was considerably more comfortable than the previous holidays.’

Pangea was convenient as you didn’t have to prepare for a trip or book a hotel. One of the reasons Pangea was becoming so popular was because of this.

‘If it wasn’t for those Demon guild bastards.’

Of course, it wasn’t all fun and games. His parents had been killed once by the Demon guild. If it weren’t for them, this holiday would’ve been perfect.

‘What kind of people would chase people down instead of apologising after that?’

His anger grew every time he thought of them. Suppressing his anger in front of his parents, Soo Hyuk concentrated on eating his apple.

“Then I’ll go first.”

Soo Hyuk finished his apple a few minutes later and stood up after speaking to his parents. He then went to his room and checked the time.

‘3 hours. Hmm, what should I do?’

Soo Hyuk thought as he stared at his capsule. He still had 3 hours left until his normal log out time, so he was contemplating whether he should connect to Pangea now.

‘Mmm…okay.’

He came to a decision after a few seconds. He reached out to his capsule.

Shuaak!

When Soo Hyuk connected to Pangea, he could see the sea with the brilliant night sky hanging over the waves.

“Wow, to think I would be able to see a sight like this…”

“I know right?”

There were still a lot of people left on the beach. They were all sitting or lying on the sand with their partners and their families, looking at the stars. Of course, his aim today wasn’t to see the ocean at night.

Glancing at the calm waves one last time, Soo Hyuk then turned around and started trudging towards the warp gates. As he was heading towards the warp gates, he opened his inventory and took out a mask.

‘I’ll use this mask this time.’

The mask depicted a fierce bear, with glaring eyes and sword-like fangs. He had previously bought different kind of masks to keep the Demon guild from recognising him. He was going to use a bear mask instead of a fox mask, as the Demon guild was going to be vigilant against a fox mask.

Soo Hyuk smoothly donned the bear mask and soon arrived at the warp gates. Was it to look at the famous night sky of Hedlin? Whatever the reason, there were lots ofusers arriving from other places and less people using the warp gates to travel to other places.

“Hey, have you heard?”

“What is it?”

“The Solitude guild!”

The conversations of other users made its way to Soo Hyuk, who was lining up to use the warp gates.

“Ah! Weren’t they appointed as the representative guild?”

“It’s got to be because they stopped the Demon guild’s massacre last time.”

“Apart from that, they apparently threw around a lot of gold as well.”

As he listened to the conversations of users around him, he thought,

‘So, they became the representative guild of Hedlin.’

It was an interesting piece of news, but it had no relation to Soo Hyuk as of now. Then, he heard another interesting piece of news straight after.

“Then have you heard of the other rumour?”

“What rumour?”

“That the Solitude guild was the one who hired the Demon guild in the first place!”

“Hey, that’s going to far. Do you actually think that the Solitude guild is that crazy?”

“Well, your word also make sense…”

‘If Solitude was the one that hired the Demon guild…’

Soo Hyuk was troubled by the possibility. He wasn’t feeling guilty about his revenge on the Demon guild, as they still were the ones that carried out the deed, but because of the Solitude guild’s strength. That strength would get in his way of revenge.

‘What should I do?’

It went without saying that he would also get revenge on the true conspirers however, harassing the Solitude guild was on a different dimension than harassing the Demon guild. The Solitude guild was founded by a former member of the number 1 guild, Desolate. This kind of background made it so that all sorts of users were attracted by Solitude. As a result, the size of Solitude outgrew the Demon guild until it was incomparable to the Demon guild.

‘My infamy score will rise like a rocket.’

Another problem was that members of Solitude didn’t have a high infamy score. In the situation where he killed them, his infamy would rise without end.

‘But the worst problem is that Solitude was appointed as the representative guild of Hedlin.’

This meant that Hedlin would be supporting the Solitude guild as Solitude was now the face of Hedlin, at least in terms of guilds. Consequently, him going against Solitude was equivalent to going against Hedlin itself.

‘But it’s not confirmed yet.’

These were all mere possibilities currently. This rumour could always turn out to be false, and Soo Hyuk wasn’t a person that would act recklessly without evidence.

“Where are you heading to?”

Soon, it was Soo Hyuk’s turn. After replying, he stood on the magic circle and was teleported to Hadrac.

“Did you hear about the Demon guild?”

“The thing that happened yesterday?”

“Yeah, that.”

“Apparently ‘all hell broke loose’ at their front gates, at least according to my friend. Keke, those dogs. Didn’t I say that something would happen to them eventually?”

The conversations of users around him reached his ears as he made his way to the Demon guild’s guild house. Unlike Hedlin, the users here were all talking about the Demon guild and the incident yesterday. It seemed he attracted the attention of other users as well as the Demon guild.

‘Well, I expected it.’

The Demon guild was one of the top guilds in Hadrac, and that meant anything that happened in the open would be instantly known to users who stayed in Hadrac.

“This bastard! Don’t wear the fox mask!”

“This crazy person! Why do you care!”

While heading to the Demon guild’s base, Soo Hyuk found two users fighting over a mask. The users around him had already noticed the commotion and they were surrounding the scene.

‘Demon guild?’

One of the users fighting belonged to the Demon guild, while the other was trying to wear the fox mask that he wore yesterday. Normally, he wouldn’t care about this sort of brawl, but the Demon guild’s reaction to the mask made him halt his steps.

“What? Don’t you know we announced not to wear this mask?”

“And why should I listen your guild’s ramblings?”

“This bastard can’t listen to reason.”

“Eihh? Since when was your guild reasonable?!”

After a fierce argument, the Demon guild member and the unknown started fighting each other with the intent to kill. The fight didn’t last long however, as one collapsed under the other’s wild flurry of strikes.

“This son of a bitch dared to yell at me while being all bark no bite?”
