Child of Destiny

Chapter 98: A Storm Is Coming

.....

Calderock Town, Hand of Midas Trading Firm.

Shiella is currently checking some file of how did her business doing in this Town. Few moments later, a woman in her mid-twenties entered her office.

Shiellaʼs brows were suddenly locked into a frown when she saw that. ”Have you forgotten how to knock Big Sister ʼSmileʼ?”

The woman is a Dark Elf Twilight, and her IGN(In Game Name) is ʼDelusive Smileʼ. She is one of the heads of the Hand of Midasʼ Information Network.

Delusive Smile shook her head and said. ”Sorry about that, Young Miss. But some of our spies in the HeadHunter Guild reported us some big news.”

Shiella suddenly become interested and said. ”Is it related to the Nameless Swordsman? If it is, then Fill me the details.”

Delusive Smile nodded her head a little while replying. ”Kind of, Young Miss. But not exactly.”

”From the report, the Higher-Ups of the Guild base in the Forbidden City tried to send some ʼOfficial Rankersʼ after the humiliation that they got on their own City.”

”But when those guys started hunting the ʼSwordsmanʼ and entered the territory of Holy City,... No, it is in the ʼShadow Forestʼ to be exact. There, they were single handedly beaten up by an unknown expert.”

”Then the unknown expert send a warning to the Guildʼs Higher-Ups before killing off the Captain of the Rankers Group.”

”And from the Battle Video that they got, they have concluded that the unknown expert is a ʼMonster Level Playerʼ from «True Era» online.”

”After that, the HeadHunter Guild in Saint Heaven Kingdom suddenly started going low.”

”Then just recently, the HeadHunter Guild main Headquarters dispatched some Godlike Players to deal with the current situation.”

”What do you think, Young Miss? Arenʼt the HeadHunter Guild overeating?”

Shiella knitted her brows as she ponder about the informations that she have got. Moments later, she look at Delusive Smile and asked. ”Do you have a copy of that Battle Video?”

Delusive Smile nodded her head and send the Battle Video to Shiella.

Shiella watch the video for few minutes before coming in conclusion. She look at Delusive Smile and said. ”The HeadHunter Guild made the right move this time. That guy is not as simple as it seems. He canʼt beaten up by few High Rankers alone.”

Shiella pause for a moment before correcting herself. ”No.... Even a group of ordinary Titled Rankers canʼt beat this guy up.”

Delusive Smileʼs eyes suddenly turned wide after hearing that remark. It is very rare for her Young Miss to praise someone, so she suddenly become inquisitive. ”Ahm... Do you know that expert, Young Miss?”

Shiella shook her head and said. ”No, but I have some idea on who he is. And if my guess is right, then that guy have another monster on his side, and some other little ones.”

Delusive Smile want to ask more but Shiella ordered her to go outside. And when the later went out, Shiella suddenly lean back on her chair before muttering to herself. ”So those guys return back in the game. I wonder how strong did they become. Did the new guys managed overtaken them or are they still standing on the Peak.”

”And The ʼNameless Swordsmanʼ. Heh, you are quite interesting for having the support of these guys. You suddenly got my attention.”

******

In some unknown High level Map in Saint Heaven Kingdom. There is a group of six players dealing with a Giant Earth Golem.

”The heck? Whose idea is it to take down a Golem?” said by Human Gunslinger(Tier 2 of Musketeer) as he pulled the triggers of his magic pistols continuesly.

”What? Do you have a problem with it? I can weaken it significantly with my water magic, so you donʼt have to worry.” replied by a Tier 2 Aquamancer.

”Canʼt you guys stop shoating? You are interrupting my thougths when Iʼm casting my spell.” yelled by the Female Tier 2 White Elf Elementalist.

”Can you guys focus? Iʼm the one tanking it and not you! So you donʼt have the right to complain! If you have time to talk, then just throw all of your skills! Little Snoopie, give me some heal!” Shouted by the Tier 2 Berserker TigerKin in front of the Golem.

”I already told you to not call me like that! I am not a Dog!” replied by a Female Human Bishop(Tier 2 of Priest) while raising her staff. Then a golden light enfold the TigerKinʼs body, returning its HP back to full.

At the same time, a silent silhoette is rapidly and quietly flashing on different side of the body of the Giant Earth Golem.

Few moments later, the group finally took down the Giant Earth Golem. Then the Berserker TigerKin do some tapping in the air. A moment after that, a world system notification shook the entire gaming world.

World System Announcement: Congratulations to Team ”Hi Old Friends and Foes, especially to the Traitors of my old group. This Old God is back to shake you up! So be prepared for my visit in the future!” for taking the first kill on the World Boss: Tyrant Guardian Golem ʼJuggernautʼ.

The system notification souded three times on the ears of all the players around the Atlas World and appear to their system notification windows.

”What the heck? Killing a World Boss with just six people?”

”Is that for real!? NO, NO, NO, Is That even possible?”

”Maybe they are all Godlike Players?”

”Canʼt you see whatʼs on the announcement? He said that he is an old God.”

”Who is that god then? And a Godlike Player what game?”

”How about his party members then?”

”Who are these people.”

...

Contrary to the ordinary players, the guys that have the rough idea about the message have differrent kind of reactions.

”So That troublesome guy is back. This is going to become interesting.”

”Why did you need to come back? You are already an outdated GOD.”

”Heh, You dare to come back? Then Iʼm going to ruin you this time for sure.”

”This arrogant guy is back? I wonder if that silent guy is still on his side. I still have some scores to settle with that guy after all.”

”Are those couples still with him? Cause Iʼm going to return the humilation that they give me during that time.”

”So it is really them. So should I use that rascal to rope these people up?”

******

Clap! Clap!

Then the TigerKin clap his hands to get the attention of his party members and said. ”Alright! Clean up the field, we are going back to the City to take some rest.”

Then the other guys started moving to take the loots on the ground and gathering the materials from the scattered corpses of the monsters.

A Twilight Dark Elf walk toward the Berserker TigerKin and said. ”Hey! Your Sister said that the HeadHunter Guild people are started making their moves. What is your plan?”

The Berserker TigerKin form a smirking smile before replying. ”Plan? Do we need a plan? If they want to come, then let them come. All we need to do is to slaughter them all and teach them a lesson.”

The Twilight Dark Elf release a helpless sigh before saying. ”It is an easy job if they are going to send some greenhorns, but from what your sister have said, those guys are sending some old aquaintances.”

Then Berserker TigerKinʼs face suddenly turned a little intersted and said. ”Now that what you call being serious. Did they figure out your Identity?”

The Dark Elf thought for a moment before replying. ”Hmm... They should have gotten some idea, but Iʼm sure that they donʼt know exactly who I am.”

”Good! Then we are going to give them a huge surprise. For now, Let us let those guys to find Brother Sickarius. If they can, that is. And we are going to appear at the critical moment while having a grand entrance like we are some kind of superheroes.” said the Berserker TigerKin. Then he immediately added after.

”What do think? Cool plan, isnʼt it?”

The Twilight Dark Elf rolled his eyes at the Berserker TigerKin before leaving the guy alone. ʼWhat are you? Some dilusional kid? Grow Up Bro!ʼ

”Hey! What? You donʼt like it? I can you can always appear first while I can be the finale. Hey! Wait!” yelled the Berserker TigerKin while chasing after the Twilight Dark Elf.
