anwhile, in Kifa Karsts...
A group of more than 100 players had gathered near the Defiant and Sleeping Gardenia border. Most of these players ca from the top guilds stationed in Kifa Karsts; however, there were a few stragglers who were not a part of the top guilds and just happened to be in the vicinity.
"Hey, watch where you're going?!" One of the players from Hollow Tempo scowled.
He was a young man who went by the na Off Beat and was also the section leader of Hollow Tempo in Kifa Karsts.
"Huh? I was here first! Why don't you watch yourself?!" A player from the Headhunter Syndicate scoffed.
The player from the Headhunter Syndicate was a young man called Clutch, the section leader of the Headhunter Syndicate stationed in Kifa Karsts.
"Who even invited you losers anyway? Ah, I get it, you're looking to eat the scraps we leave behind. Heh, how pathetic have fallen." Off Beat chuckled.
"You bastard! Try saying that again!" Clutch said as he along with the players from the Headhunter Syndicate drew their weapons.
"What? You think we're afraid of you?!" Off Beat snapped back with a cold gaze.
Ever since what took place during the Protector of Amaharpe event, Hollow Tempo and the Headhunter Syndicate had beco akin to blood enemies. In fact, when Izroth first announced the bounty placed on their guild mbers, those from Hollow Tempo were among the most zealous in hunting the players from the Headhunter Syndicate.
"Both of you, stop this nonsense. Have you already forgotten what our guilds have agreed on? Besides, we have a more important matter to attend to." A young woman stepped forward.
She had long curly pale blue hair, a pair of crystal eyes, and wore a set of exquisite light armor. When she spoke, it caused Off Beat and Clutch to exchange hostile gazes with one another; however, the two backed down and lowered their weapons. That's because neither of them wanted to offend the power behind the young woman.
The young woman went by Umi. She was the section leader assigned by Broken Exile to the Kifa Karsts.
"That's right! What are we going to do about the ore cave?!" A burly young man who went by Slow Slumber spoke up and expressed his outrage.
Slow Slumber was a player from Defiant. At the mont, he was left in charge of the Kifa Karsts until Defeaning Silence and the other players from his guild returned.
After Slow Slumber learned the fate of his fellow guild mbers and Sleeping Gardenia's bold actions, how could he not be outraged?
"Before that, are not we missing a few guilds? This is an ore cave we're talking about." A young woman called Mist Princess pointed out as she strolled over to where the other section leaders and Slow Slumber were located.
Mist Princess was the section leader who represented the Mist Palace in Kifa Karsts. And, just as she stated, not all of the top guilds had gathered here.
Sleeping Gardenia not coming was understandable. After all, they were the main culprits this ti around. But, Sacred Beasts, Cross Haven, Hypers Symphony, and even Blue Oasis did not show up.
"Cross Haven has always done things their own way and Hypers Symphony is their loyal dog. As for Sacred Beasts-they have already aligned themselves with Sleeping Gardenia. Blue Oasis missing out on this chance, however, was unexpected. Regardless, that just ans that we can divide it into bigger pieces." Umi stated.
"Hmph, trying to swallow a mountain alone? Sleeping Gardenia has no one to bla for themselves for being blinded by greed." Mist Princess smirked.
"So? How are we doing this?" Off Beat inquired.
"Even if Sacred Beasts has sided with Sleeping Gardenia, we can overwhelm with our numbers and strength alone. As for strategy, there is no point seeing as how our guilds are not used to working together. Trying to implent any kind of strategy would only result in poor results. Our goal is simply not to get in each other's way and secure the ore cave." Umi clarified.
"I agree with section leader Umi. Why try sothing we aren't good at? Just not getting in each other's way is more than enough." Mist Princess chid in.
"I don't see the issue. We're in." Clutch comnted.
"I also agree with section leader Umi's approach." Off Beat confird.
"Defiant is also in agreent." Slow Slumber said with furrowed brows.
It was clear that Defiant had the least amount of manpower on their side. Because of this, Slow Slumber was worried that the other guilds would try to cut them out of the picture once everything was said and done.
"You have to hurry back with the others, section leader...!" Slow Slumber thought to himself. "Alright, since we've settled on the simple things, we can worry about the complicated stuff after we take over the ore cave. Let's move out-" Umi started; however, she halted her words as an unexpected alert popped up from the system.
