64- Revenge

"The Base is going to be attacked!" Mark's voice resounded on their chat, it was very loud that the others were able to hear it.

They were quiet for a few minutes, even Chris who was running abruptly stopped, but she immediately jolted as she felt the trap coming after them, "Y-you idiot! what is the good news in that!?" Chris yelled on top of her lungs as she ran as fast as she could.

Her mind was in chaos as so the others, sometimes Mark is just... they don't know what to say, "Hahahaha! it's great! look these guys are packed with items, all wearing full iron and they also brought horses! Isn't this the best!?" Mark laughed as he saw the group inching closer towards their base.

"Ughh... I know you are confident but don't get arrogant over it!" Chris replied as he felt a headache.

"Arrogance needs Strength, and I have it" Mark smiled.

"Oh really? even though you now have turned into a game character?" Chris asked amusingly.

"Nothing new" Mark shrugged.

"Okay, okay, we will go back now, how long do you think it will take for them to reach the base?" Chris asked already giving up talking with Mark.

"I don't know but they might rest and attack tomorrow" Mark saw that this group seemed to have traveled very far so they might rest before attacking.

"Okay, we will be going back now" Chris nodded before looking at the others that were with her.

"Are you sure they will be here on time? I think the enemies will be wiped out before they could even come" White Reaper chuckled.

"Hehe, you don't have to come if you don't want that, just defend the base," Mark smirked.

"Haha, don't ever think about leaving me off the fun" White Reaper laughed loudly.

"Well, whatever, let's notify the others first, I want to attack them right now but the base will be in danger if that happens, I don't want to be scolded by Nyx" Mark jumped off the wall.

"Hehe, when did our Saint became scared of a woman?" White Reaper turned his head to Mark with a surprised look.

"I'm not scared of her, I respect her" Mark gave a faint smile before leaving, White Reaper looked at him and nodded, "That is how a real man must be" then decided to help his daughter in preparing.

"..."

The army of people that were moving slowly halted their march as they saw the 'Castle' like base not too far away in front of them, "It's really big, I cannot wait to take this place for myself" Bob who was riding a white horse said with a big smile on his face.

"Guild Master, everyone is very tired now, we should rest before attacking," one of his close confidants said, Bob didn't say anything and turned to look at his soldiers, and they looked very tired.

Everything cannot be refilled with food and drinks in this world right now, not like in-game where you eat food you will immediately feel revitalized, this time even if you eat and drink full, tiredness will still appear on your body.

Seeing this, Bob couldn't help but be dissatisfied, 'F*cking wastrels' he cursed, he was very angry right now, he couldn't wait to exact his revenge but knowing his enemy will be Nevermore, the strongest player of Alter Online, he could only grit his teeth from frustration.

"Go tell everyone to rest then, I don't want to lose once again from that guy Nevermore, this time I will have my revenge" he gave the place a final glare before returning back to his tent that was already prepared.

After he entered the tent, three people wearing black robes were inside, Bob immediately changed his expression into a delightful one, "Masters, we will rest for today and attack tomorrow, I hope that doesn't bother you" Bob gave a bow as he looked at the figures clad in black robes, even their face cannot be seen.

"It's fine, as long as you give us what you have promised" one of them spoke.

"Yes, as long as you help me on my revenge in defeating Nevermore" Bob looked at them.

"Of course, I'm quite interested in top 1 of Alter Online, I wonder what kind of expression will he make when I stab him" one of them laughed in a maniacal way.

"Of course, of course, before we go let's have a drink!" Bob gave a blissful smile imagining the doom of Nevermore, he had spent a lot of money just to hire these three people and even have to give up his precious treasure.

Bob is not worried about these people losing against Nevermore, he had seen their skills first and he was very delighted by how powerful they were, he was sure, his revenge will be successful!

Everyone in the room laughed along as they came into a festive mood, not knowing that just beside them, Mark was blended with the shadows with a smile on his face, 'So their target is me? fun' Mark smiled then as they were busy having fun together he left.

Just outside the tent, White Reaper was waiting for him, they looked at each other and quietly left, after they got far away from them, White Reaper asked, "So did you find something?"

"Well, kind of, they are here for me, the Guild Leader's name is Bob, a guy I killed last time in-game, and he hired 3 people to fight me, but it seemed like they have a deal of an important item," Mark replied as he looked at the moon.

"Do you know the guys they hired?" White Reaper asked.

"I saw emblems from their belongings here" Mark took out a small token from his pockets and threw it towards White Reaper who caught it with his two fingers, White Reaper inspected the token and saw an emblem on the token, a black pagoda.

"The Black Company huh?"
