The woman walked down the street and saw her son standing outside of the forge with a big smile on his face.

"What happened Allen? Are you okay?"

"Call me GF here mom."

"Where did GF come from?"

"Made a new friend and he calls me that."

"You made a friend? That is great. What happened?"

"Wolf guys were being mean and touching me and I did not like it. My friend scared them off. He gave me his name and said if they come back call him. And then, and then, and then."

"GF you need to take a deep breath." Allen took a deep breath.

"Then he gave me stuff for forging."

"Will you show me his name?"

Allen quickly pulled up his stuff and showed her the list. There were now three names on the list. Hers, Take What I Want her husband and now Vindictus. She immediately messaged her husband. "Do you recognize the name Vindictus?"

"Yes, do not offend him."

"I have not met him but he has made friends with our son."

"Amazing. He is the guy that wants to hire you and Allen. He is going to open a workshop and a guild."

"That is the guy. Do you think he has been scouting Allen?"

"I doubt he has had time. How did it happen?"

"He saved him from some Wolf Moon guys."

"It is a coincidence. He does not like Wolf Moon and would have helped anyone that they were bullying. But I am glad that Allen seemed to like him."

"He also gave him some forging stuff, probably based on his name. And not cheap stuff."

"I assume that he is just scouting another forger for his guild. And trust me when I say he can afford it."

"Okay then. As long as you are good with it. Oh, by the way Allen now wants to be called GF in the game. Apparently your friend gave him the nickname and he fell in love with it."

"That is good to know. Few more things to do and then I will come and switch with you."

"No rush. Love you."

"Love you too."

She turned and saw that her son was already in the forge and had started working. The smith in charge of the forge did not say a word and just watched the young dwarf work. They had come to an agreement that half of everything he made would be sold here in exchange for using the forge without limit.

The man left the front of the shop and headed a little deeper into the city. He saw the video and knew that man could kill all five of them easily. But the fact that Blood Wolf had lost was not common knowledge in the guild yet. Now he had to figure out how to best play his cards to his advantage. Did he blackmail Blood Wolf or did he give the information to the guy that wanted his slot and move up in his position to his team. He barely thought about it when he sent a message to Crimson Wolf.

"Crimson Wolf I have some information about Blood Wolf that you are going to want to know."

"I am in the middle of something but come to the cemetery and wait for me."

"I am on the way." He turned to the men that were following him. "We are going to the cemetery to report to Crimson Wolf. He should be willing to move me into a higher spot on one of his teams and if so then I should be able to talk to some of the other team leaders and get you guys set up." The man that were following him realized what he was doing and they all smiled. This guild was cut throat and any little mistake could drop you to the bottom of the guild in a hurry.

The group fought their way through the skeletons to the start of the Dean Dungeon and waited for Crimson Moon to come out. A few times the skeletons in the area respawned and they quickly killed it. There was a group that was set up outside the crypt at would kill the giant skeleton when it popped up. It was a team from Wolf Moon. There was another team that was there that were to keep other players from getting into the dungeon. Since this was the only dungeon in this beginner village there was a lot of competition for it and most of the guys on the outside were red names.

The group was there for a while when suddenly five forms seemed to appear out of nowhere. The leader of the group looked at the men. "You were the one with info about Blood Wolf?"

"Yes sir that was me."

"What info do you have that I might not know?"

"We all saw video evidence that he has already lost at least once in this game. Him, and two other members were killed by one man."

"All five of you saw the video?" The other four men nodded. "Can you get me a copy of the video? Let the person know that if they send it to me I will give them and their party one free pass through the Dean Family Crypt for it."

"I will send him a message right away sir."

"If he sends you the video send it to me and I will make sure that you get taken care of. Wait before that, how did you end up seeing the video?"

"We were harassing a lifestyle player that Blood Wolf has put a nuisance bounty on and he came up and stopped us. He showed us the video and I thought it would be better to give you information than die at his hands."

"He was only one player?"

"There is something different about him sir. Even in the video you could see that he is not an ordinary player."

"I see. Get me that video. I do not care if you have to follow him around until he kills you back to level 1 get me that video."

"I will not let you down sir."

Crimson Wolf turned to his team. "We have one more run today. Let's go ahead and knock it out. And Divine Eye make sure to aim for joints. You know that in a way this is like a real world and that it will limit its movements."

"I will try but don't forget that I will have to shoot around you to hit the knee and hip joints. And I have not been able to find the precise shot skill yet."

"I have people looking. And I know that you are trying. This time see if you can find a better location to shoot from."

"Understood. I will go to the left this time instead of the right and see if that works out."

"Sounds good, let's go." The five of them instantly disappeared from sight.

"Vindictus, this is Raging Heart. I am hoping that we can reach a deal on the video that you showed me earlier when I was stupidly harassing that dwarf."

Vindictus was surprised when he got a message from the group from early but he was very intrigued. "What are you offering?"

"My boss is the one in charge of the Dean Family Dungeon right now and our people are the only ones allowed to enter without a large fee. He is offering you and your party a free pass into the dungeon."

"Tell them that I want three, one for each level that can be used today and tomorrow. Only three not three each day. And if he asks it is going to be one for each level."

"I will reach out and see what he says." Raging Heart sent the Crimson Wolf the terms that Vindictus asked for.

"I was worried that he was going to be greedy. I am fine with that. Also be ready to go as soon as you send me the video. I have another group that needs a guardian and they are going to carry and teach you."

"Thank you sir I will not let you down." He opened up the window and sent the message to Vindictus that it was not a problem.

Vindictus saw the response and without any hesitation he sent the entire video to him. "Thank you, I will give the guards your name so you need to make sure they are ready for me and my group later today."

"I will make sure that they are aware." Raging Heart walked out to the group of guards that were guarding the area and passed on the information and who it was from. The group made a note and said there would not be any issues on their end. With that he forwarded the video to Crimson Wolf. "Here is the video sir."

"Thanks, the group is about ten minutes out, be ready." He saw that the video was in his box but he did not have time to watch it yet.
