I Get a Little Lonely Sometimes Too

Blue River and Cold Night weren't wrong.

If Stolord continued with his kidnapping of the record, then the matter wouldn't just be between him and both of their guilds. The big guilds would unify and propose a way to resolve the issue; whether that was by bribing him or by killing him.

But at the moment, the crisis was only between their guilds. Even if the other guilds knew about Stolord's snatching nature, they wouldn't come out and help them immediately. They would watch them struggle first. If the two guilds actually fell, then that'd be great news for them.

"What do you plan on doing?" Blue River asked Cold Night.

"I don't know. I wanted to see what you were thinking." Cold Night said.

Blue River hesitated. Should he pay the ransom or fight against the kidnapper and compete for the records from now on?
