Agatha The Legendary Guild Master

Chapter 278: War is Already on Our Doorsteps

Lady Nada had a thought that I liked a lot, but something kept buzzing me about this Ronde. So far he kept surprising me, and I knew that wasn't him, alone, but a group of sinister minds that tried to kill me.

However, underestimating him wasn't good. I had the feeling, he wouldn't fall this easily!

"Let's keep them all into the town prison for now," I said, as I agreed on her suggestion. If he had any plans, then these plans weren't ready to be used yet.

Giving that snake more time would turn it into a dragon! So I had to corner it, push it hard, and try to force him to show his hidden scheme.

Lady Nada nodded, as she then went to speak with someone of her guards, before she returned to me in a few minutes, as she said:

"Most of the guards didn't come to surrender, that's weird."

I had to agree with her, as her face wasn't with the same confidence she had once before. "Do you know something else?" I asked.

"Yes," she said, "that town mayor from before had disappeared, and not to be found," she was feeling more unwell towards this sudden change, but I was already expecting the worse.

The previous town mayor, Progal, was the one who would stir trouble then, but I didn't know from where he would start to attack, or how.

"Why do I feel like you aren't that surprised?" Lady Nada noticed my calm reaction and face, so she asked. I didn't know what to tell her, should I reply telling her I fear my enemies and know them better than you?

"You expected it!" she guessed it right, before a warm calm smile appeared on her face, "Of course you did, who better understands the enemy more than you?"

I thought she was just stating the fact, not admiring it. for me, I knew I didn't deserve admiration, as I knew, but didn't warn her, or was too late to do so.

"What do you think they will do?" I asked.

"They?!" she asked back, as she was surprised by the term I used.

"Yes, they, my enemies, they aren't just Ronde," I said, stating the obvious, for me.

"Do you think your enemies will come here?" her eyes suddenly shone brightly, as she turned sharply to her guards, whispered something, nervously, to them, before they all vanished, all of them.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I think I know what they are going to do," she replied, before patting on my shoulders, as if she was encouraging me, "the incoming battle is going to be tough, and you will have to fight it alone, of course side by side with me."

I didn't get her meaning, and before I even could ask, I heard a loud bang in the sky of the town, followed by a huge drum voice coming from the direction of the town walls.

"What is this?" I asked, while heading fast to the outside, looking to the direction of the walls.

"It's another monster tide, my dear," the sound of Lady Nada made my body tremble. This wasn't right, right? I just conquered a monster tide from before, why was there another one here?

"It's my town!" I muttered, softly muttered, as this town wasn't Lady Nada's town, but it was mine! under my name! so the quest of monster tide rebellion was also applicable to here!

"That's why these guards didn't join up, and their leader vanished. They are waiting for your fall, or at least be busy, so they can come here and take the town heart back," Lady Nada said, before shaking her head, "it's a waste, though, that their attack this time wouldn't be as massive as the beforehand attack. Plus, I will be here, protecting the heart."

I looked at her, and this moment wasn't the moment when I should waste time saying useless things. I had already no time to waste here, and my options were limited.

"My master…"

"Your master, his friends, my guards, and even me can't interfere in this test. you already know that, but there is nothing to prevent me from protecting this heart."

Her words interrupted mine, and she was right in all she just said. I nodded, before grasping her hands and tightly pressing on them, "if things are risky, just destroy that goddamn heart!"

I then turned and headed straight towards the main gate of this town. This town was the same, exactly the same as my town, so I found my own way easily and fast.

I had already killed my way into this town's players and NPCs, so waiting for them to come here and help was a crazy thing that would never happen.

As I went towards the walls, I summoned my pet, jumped over his shoulders, and he carried me fast towards the main gate.

Around me I noticed many eyes glancing, with extreme hatred and anger. I suddenly realized that I owned a town with angry rebellious natured residents in it.

To solve this problem later, I would rather expel them all, invite more inhabitants, and try to make relations with them better. I already hated them much more than they hated me!

I didn't know why Lady Nada did not destroy the heart already and let us get rid of this headache. I also didn't know why and where she sent her small guards away.

They were small in number, but at least they could help her.

As I progressed on the shoulder of my pet, I spotted my one hundred elite team, coming from far towards me. I could spot worry over their faces, and they should be. Instead of celebrating the destruction of this town, we were now running to defend it!

How a stunning twist in events that was!

"Princess, do you know what is going on?" Diana was the first to reach me, as usual, while others were just trying to keep track with my demon's high speed.

"I think our enemies have launched another monster tide against this town."

My words were loud enough for others back there to hear them. I heard many whispers from back, but didn't turn to look at them.

"Are we going to face the same sacred land attack?" Diana asked, the question that was in everyone's mind for sure, even inside me.

"I dunno," I honestly replied, "but I think it's quite unlikely to happen."

My enemies had already tasted a great defeat at my hands, and they realized I played them in their own game. trying to defeat me using the same tactic would be considered a foolish move, so I believed they would try and look for another way to beat me.

However, they all lacked time to prepare, as their sudden defeat twice under my spear came swiftly and suddenly, they weren't' anything close to be prepared for such a scenario.

That made me quite calm, and collected, as I knew whatever was waiting for me behind this town walls, it wouldn't be harder than what I already experienced, right?

The walls were quite on sight, and I managed to reach there first. The moment I reached there, I was surprised to see the scene that welcomed me in the face!

There were monsters, yes, normal monsters, but there were also an army of players, a huge army of players, standing side by side with monsters.

"Since when players can stand this calm and peaceful side by side with players?" I asked, while others just arrived at the walls, looking at this strange scene with surprise and doubt.

"Something doesn't fit, princess," Diana said, while Aria added:

"I once heard of a branch of nobles, a side family that proclaimed to be the main family, and their right to rule was stolen by the current main family."

I looked at her without understanding or care to all this dilemma, until she added:

"And this family is well known for their monster raising farms, or worlds to be exact. They are brutal, enter any world and totally dominate it, before turning it all into a huge monster farm. No one knew why they are doing this, but I'm sure this boy is one of them."

I understood now her meaning, as these monsters seemed docile, standing silent beside players, without showing any signs for revolt.

"How did he manage to move his family monsters then to here?��� I asked, "did he already establish a monster farm in this world?" that wasn't practical at all, as the game world wasn't old enough to have something huge like that.

"I think they used their leverage and made the game take the monster tide from their farms, not randomly like what it's supposed to be," she replied, with her guesses and speculations. "But his family doesn't have that authority in the empire," she added, with some loss over her face.

I turned to look at this closing from distance army, as I muttered:

"He and his family don't have this, but Respawn's harem can do it!"

I knew my main enemy wasn't just one person, but they were groups, arranged even in layers. Even Respawn's harem wasn't my main enemy, as they were just pawns in the hands of my real, well hidden, and very dangerous enemy, the wolves!

"Prepare for battle!"

I shouted, awakening my men from their daze, as there was no time to chit chat like this.

War was already on our doorsteps, and we were alone! I was alone!
