My Players Are So Fierce

“What? You want me to team up with that perverted Vampire Lord for a mission? No, I refuse!”

At the Fortress of Courage, the “Dragon Flame” Lena, who was teleported here, quickly received Murphy’s instructions. But upon hearing that The Third Lord Yvette would also be joining this hunt for ‘Dusk,’ Lena instantly triggered some kind of “PTSD” symptom and vented her anger at Murphy via quantum communication:

“Can’t you send someone else? Why not send Lady Triss? I think I get along well with Triss, but forget about Yvette. Do you know, the first time I saw her, she tried to use some weird powers to entice me into doing some very sleazy things.”

“I know, I know, I also suffered the same treatment. Lord Yvette is indeed not someone with a likable personality, unless you’re a born masochist.”

Murphy helplessly comforted:

“But you know, the Twilight Servants cannot be tracked in ordinary ways. To pin down that guy’s whereabouts, we must dispatch a master hunter.

Lady Yvette is currently one of the only two master hunters I have, the other being Duke Pablo the Bloodfear, but that pirate has already headed to the Misty Coast and won’t be back anytime soon.

So here’s the issue, Lady Lena.

You have been wronged by Dusk like this, revenge must be taken, so are you willing to endure some quirks of these strong characters for your hatred?”

“Of course I am, but Lord Yvette’s frightening harassment is another concept altogether, isn’t it?”

Dragon Flame said helplessly:

“I know that if you get ‘consumed’ by her, you’ll be tainted with quite a troublesome power until you become her lapdog, which is not in my life plan…”

“Well, there is actually another way. Since you are my progeny, you can also use that spell which can strongly deter Yvette. But you cannot fully wield the power of that ‘spell,’ so you can only recite it when Yvette tries to harm you.”

Murphy then told Lena the ‘spell’ that Lady Triss used to teach Yvette a lesson, so she could protect herself. Regarding this sentence which did not resemble a spell at all, Lena half-jokingly expressed her skepticism but acknowledged that things had come to this point, and she couldn’t demand more.

“So annoying, so annoying!”

The agitated Lady Lena kept stomping her feet, clearly indicating the immense stress Lord Yvette was bringing her. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Fortress of Courage, within the Sanctuary established here by the Avalon Church, Natalie was conversing with the Avalon Cultists who were returning.

She also announced a piece of good news to them.

“Thanks to Sir Murphy’s assistance, 30 of the lost Version of Avalon Sacred Blade have returned to the Crimson Castle Sanctuary. These weapons forged by Avalon’s Divine Power must be entrusted to the bravest and most sincere Nature Walkers for use. Therefore, I have decided to use this hunt as the evaluation standard!”

The imposing White Knight Natalie, holding her oak helmet, promised the players walking the Road of Avalon before her:

“As long as you complete the hunt for the Dusk Cultist and reaching silver tier personally, all of you can apply for a Sacred Blade from the Sanctuary that suits your power needs.

Of course, these are the Things of Faith. To wield them, you must prove your loyalty to Avalon. There might be some trial tasks, but rest assured, you won’t be sent to scenarios you cannot handle.”

“Avalon’s Boss is awesome!”

After Natalie finished speaking, members of the Big Bird Team rejoiced and celebrated.

Everyone in this guild is a member of the Avalon Church, which means everyone would get a Sacred Blade.

Ah, our God of Nature is really amazing, unlike other players who have to defeat monsters and accomplish tasks to get good weapons; we just need to have the power, and the holy relic is given!

So generous, so invincible.

However, Brother Meow quickly pulled a long face because he learned from Lady Natalie that among the 30 Sacred Blades sent back by the elves, none were exclusive weapons for the Red Knight, meaning he’d continue wielding the Mother Earth’s battle axe as an Avalon Believer…

Well, the Mother Goddess does treat him nicely, occasionally adding a petrification effect, but playing Gaia’s weapon under the name of a Nature Cultist always brings an unspeakable feeling of betrayal.

Others were coming and going at the entrance of the Sanctuary. After hearing that Avalon was handing out holy relics to players, members of the Winter Wolf Religion and Wam Brothers Society immediately made a fuss.

Everyone’s serving the Divine Spirits, so why make distinctions like this?

Why do Avalon’s servants get holy relics while we have to struggle for our own livelihoods?

No way, we want holy relics too!

If not given, we’ll resign and throw ourselves at Avalon’s Boss.

These guys dare to say anything, leaving the Winter Wolf Monks and Wam Warrior Leader in the Fortress of Courage with a headache. Holy relics from each church are limited; who else but the God of Nature can bring forward 150 Sacred Blades to be wholesaled like this?

Damn thing!

We’re all servants of the Divine Spirit, weren’t we agreed that faith is paramount, and now you’re secretly competing?

However, the players’ claims must be addressed; otherwise, these daring foreigners could actually pull off such outrageous actions as renouncing the faith.
