"What's going on with him?" I asked, as I didn't know what just happened.
"Mark had a fiance before, but they already broke up due to her family refusing him. she is a noble descendant, and thus her family refused the relation between the two," Alfonzo said, explaining things Agatha didn't know of.
"Will she tell him then?" I asked, as I figured out what they were trying to do here.
"She still speaks to him from ti to ti," one of the Cleos said, "so there is a chance she might help him, especially since she is a general in the army already," she added.
"A general?! That seed quite a high position!" I remarked, as generals were so scary beings back at my previous kingdom.
"Sure, she is a very strong player who gained the general assessnt in her ga and she managed to complete the quests related to it. she is a very famous character in the army, well respected despite her young age of seventeen years old," Aria said, filling the missing spots in the story.
"If she knew such a thing, she wouldn't hesitate to inform him," the other Cleo said.
I just nodded, as I waited silently like others for Mark's return. When he finished speaking with his past lover, he returned with an ashen white face, as he hurriedly said:
"It's true, the ga is targeted by the soul suckers."
"What?!!!" they all gasped, while Aria exclaid out in shock. "Are you sure it's them?" she added, trying to make sure she heard the word right.
"Yes, she told it's already a known thing in every group and guild already, and many started evacuating their sons and daughters from the ga."
His words made everyone open their mouths, not knowing what they should say. Everything was crystal clear now, their bosses had betrayed them, left them here to die.
"What are these soul suckers?" I suddenly asked, as this was my first ti hearing about them.
"They are a very terrifying empire that suddenly popped up in our universe out of nowhere. Rumors said they were just a nobody before, not even an established kingdom, but in a blink of an eye they possessed great strength that terrorized the entire universe," Aria said, replying in a very dejected tone.
"This empire never targeted anything and failed to utterly ruin it! we are dood, we all are dood!" one of the Cleos pair of cousin remorse, as her face showed how terrified she really was.
"What about you? Why didn't your fiance bring you out of here?" Aria turned to as she asked, and her question made laugh, despite not trying to do so.
My reaction attracted their attention, as she added:
"It's impossible for him to leave you behind like this, it can't be true, right?"
I sighed, before saying the truth:
"In fact I'm in the total opposite camp of his right now."
My words were received with no understanding to them, so I added to clarify things:
"I'm now an official contender to the throne. In fact this attack has sothing to do with that, as currently I'm Respon's camp biggest threat, a threat they can't ignore."
"You are kidding !" Alfonzo suddenly bellowed out, as he suddenly jumped while shouting like maniac:
"Do you know what this even ans? The emperor will co from a totally different bloodline than the current one! All the nobles will turn into nothing, re commoner in just a blink of an eye!"
His words, his shouting words, made things suddenly clear to . I suddenly understood this wasn't just about a fight for the throne, it was about a fight for existence! If the nobles lost all their places right now, they would face a brutal retaliation from everyone, literally everyone!
"Oh my god!"Aria suddenly exclaid out in shock. "This is big, this is really big," she added, before looking at with a very widened eyes, as she demanded, "what do you plan to do then?"
I shrugged as I instantly replied:
"I plan to resist, force the army to follow my command and help and my current allies to defend the entire ga."
"Are you for real?"Mark suddenly said, before adding, "if you really plan to do so, then I pledge loyalty to you right now!"
His words were well received by as I widely smiled despite trying to control my current excitation. I was really glad that I managed to crack this nutshell, and acquire their support. Despite him being one person, this was a good sign in itself.
"May I ask what allies you have?" Alfonzo asked.
"On top of the list, I have the guardian on my side, plus many mystic art masters as well."
My humble reply ca like thunder, as they all froze while one of the Cleo pair of cousins asked:
"You don't an our ga guardian, the esteed being that guards the ga, aren't you?"
I chuckled as I replied with a giggle:
"Sure, it's him."
"Oh!"
They all sucked a cold breath of air, before they exchanged glances between each other. "If we joined you, what plan do you have to conquer that invasion?" Tomy was the one to ask this last straw that was enough to smash any hesitation they had.
"There is a way for to order the army around, and I plan to go for it. The guardian already supports in this claim, and I intend to start targeting it once I get so detailed info regarding the ti of the invasion," I replied, explaining my plan simply to them.
"May we know what thod is this?" Tomy asked again.
"It's about a rank called a missionary, I will aim to gain it."
"Oh!" they again sucked a cold breath of air, and this ti their reaction showed a single aning about their impression of .
Scary!! They were seeing as such a scary person!
"Don't look at like that, I might get nightmares at night!" I tried to joke around, in a try to decrease the tension growing in the air.
"You oh my, what I can say" Aria shook her head helplessly, as she sighed one ti after another. "Let's say it's a great fortune for us to know you, and much luckier to witness these great monts where our empire history is about to see great changes like this, and we are honored to be part of these changes, supporting you in your claims."
Her words held only one aning, I finally succeeded in my quest here! they all nodded, as they all said one after another:
"I pledge allegiance to you, and will move my entire players to join your guild right now!"
"The Cleon group is much honored to play under your banner from this day forth!"
"I took over the leadership of this group so I can fight and bring down the nobles. Never imagined such a day would co so soon, and I would be damned if I wasn't part of it! I'm now one of your guild, please accept and my players."
They all asked to join my guild, and after they all finished their words, and I finally controlled my stormy celebrations inside my soul, I said with a wide grin over my face:
"I'm sure your addition will make my task much easier. I will appoint all of you as my vices, and you are much welcod to bring anyone you want, here at any other ga world as well."
"Are we going to other ga worlds?" one of the Cleo pairs asked.
"Sure, I need to conquer ten ga worlds to be able to acquire that title. so, we will visit many worlds in the next period of ti," I replied, before I cald down my reactions as I added, "now let's just organize things first, and then we need to raise everyone's levels to the highest possible one.
I already have a demon under my disposal, plus two mighty legions to aid. Co to at dungeon level forty with your top players, we will continue raiding this dungeon until our level crosses forty."
They all were still stuck, like , at twenty sothing level. reaching level forty wasn't an easy feat, but using my own cheating helpers, I was pretty sure things would go smoothly for us.
I didn't intend to stop there, as I would go to a higher level afterwards, might think of hitting sixty or seventy then. I would do all my best to raise my players' ranks, and strength, so I could be much more comfortable in the upcoming challenges.
"By the way, select a few players from your teams, as I have so extra mystic art dallions to share."
My words made their eyes shone, as having a mystic art was indeed a high dream for any player in the ga. they all nodded, before they excused themselves and went to each one's group to announce the news.
