Queenstar unsheathes her light blue greatsword. The Rank 50 legendary greatsword, Glacius Greatsword.

Kingstar is pointing his sword towards the hooded guy.

"Don't be so full of yourself."

Kingstar is looking at his members.

"Don't interfere with our fight, you all just going to be bothersome. Queen, Alec, Grim, let's go. Rein, cover us from behind."

They nod.

Kingstar, Queenstar, and the commanders ran towards the hooded guy, except for Reinhardt, since he's an archer. They attacked him, but they all missed. He scoffed and attacked them back. Alec was the one targeted by him, and it surprised every single one of them. Alec is the strongest tanker in the clan, but he was easily defeated by the hooded guy. Thanks to the [Betelgeuse's Dust Particles], he immediately revived. Alec jumped back and repositioned. Kingstar and the rest of them kept attacking him.

Reinhardt locked his target and then used [Aimed Shot]. A skill with a long channeling and cooldown that has a 0% chance to miss with a fast projectile attack that almost reaches the speed of sounds. The hooded guy without even knowing that there was an arrow coming towards him managed to dodge it. Reinhardt was surprised and lowered his bow with disbelief.

"How..."

The hooded guy looked at where the arrow was coming from. Reinhardt panicked and immediately lifted his bow again. Reinhardt kept shooting arrows at him, but he dodged it. The hooded guy suddenly ran towards Reinhardt and with just a few hits, he died.

Kingstar started to get pissed at the hooded guy and used his AoE attack, [Ground Breaker]. A skill that will hit the surroundings within 5 meters radius from the caster. It will hit anyone within the radius, no matter if they're in the same party with the caster.

[3492]

Kingstar was surprised because, in less than a second, the hooded guy managed to run away from the radius before his sword landed on the ground. Queenstar, Alec, and Grim took the heavy damage. The hooded guy chuckled and used the opportunity to attack the three of them. Alec and Grim died again. The hooded guy attacked Queenstar.

Queenstar laughed because it didn't even scratch 10% of her HP, but it still annoyed her because she couldn't hit him. They already wasted a lot of health potions, but it didn't matter since they stocked thousands of health potions for this. The hooded guy suddenly stopped. Kingstar smirked.

"It's useless. Are you giving up now?"

The hooded guy stood there and didn't respond to Kingstar. It seemed that the hooded guy is looking at a notification. The hooded guy clenched his fists and looked at the other side of the hallway. He suddenly ran towards Kingstar. Kingstar readied his stance and slashed him, but the hooded guy dodged it. The hooded guy tapped Kingstar's shoulder.

"Let's do this on another day..."

The hooded guy ran past him. They turned around and the hooded guy killed all the players that were holding torches and it became pitch black. Then a scream came from the far back of the hallway. They all confused because there's no way for him to run past all the players that cramped the hallway in just a second. Then the mages used a spell to light up the hallway. Kingstar and the rest of them pushed all the players away from the way. But it was too late. Kingstar is pissed and punched the wall.

"How?!"

(At the southwest of the Alenbeliard fortress.)

Avriel is leaning on the tree while smirking. Then she hears a rustling sound from behind her. She looks at the bushes from the corner of her eyes. A shadow figure is standing still and looking towards her. Avriel pushes herself up from the tree.

"You found it?"

The shadow nods.

"We found it."

Avriel smirks and walks towards the shadow figure.

"Lead the way."

The shadow figure walks through the woods and Avriel is following it from behind.

(Somewhere in the Alenbeliard fortress.)

[Urgent Quest! Avriel is in danger.]

[Avriel got betrayed by his men. Currently, Avriel is walking to the enemy's trap. Ardalec and Diadre are ready to ambush her when she comes. Save Avriel before they are going to eliminate her.]

[Reward: None]

[Failure conditions: Avriel died and she will not respawn again]

[Avriel Scarlettblood's HP (100%)]

"I knew it... something is off about this!"

I still have around 30 minutes before I can leave the fortress. I don't know if she can survive for 30 minutes on her own against Ardalec and Diadre. This is the worst scenario that can happen.

The VoW reveals my current coordinate. I immediately leave and go to the other side of the fortress. Thanks to [Moonsteps] skill, I can use it at the same time with the VoW announcement since [Moonsteps] skill has the cooldown that matches with the VoW announcement.

I keep moving around and I bet Kingstar and Queenstar are really pissed right now. I know I can't defeat them, but, making them frustrated is enough to satisfy me. Then a screen appears in front of me.

[Warning!]

[Avriel Scarlettblood's HP (80%)]

I'm kicking my foot on the ground and crossing my hands while hitting my hands on my forehead. I'm so nervous and worried. I still have 21 minutes before I can leave this place.

"God damn it!"

The VoW reveals my coordinate again. Without wasting any time, I use [Moonsteps] to the top of the fortress. When I'm at the top of the fortress, I'm looking in the direction where Avriel should be if she's still watching me. It's on the southwest of the fortress, where the Alenbeliard fortress's main entrance is at. Once I managed to leave this fortress, I will be surrounded by players and because of the lights from the torches around the fortress, I can't use [Moonsteps] before I enter the woods.

[Warning!]

[Avriel Scarlettblood's HP (60%)]

I'm covering my mouth and breath heavily while looking at the woods.

"Please, Avriel. Survive..."

(Somewhere in the woods near Alenbeliard fortress.)

Avriel is covered with blood. She's smirking and glaring at the grey-haired guy in front of her.

"I never thought that I would get beaten up like this. So the pieces of information are accurate, you are the ray of the Aarus Empire, Diadre."

Diadre is swirling his spear and smiles.

"And you are the shadow of the Eluna Empire... or used to be. That makes both of us a pair, right? There is no light without a shadow, and there is no shadow without light. For someone who has never been on a battlefield, you are tougher than I thought. I'm glad that I can finally meet you. I have been searching for you, of course, it is not just personal, but I also have been ordered to hunt you down."

Avriel is coughing blood and then clears her throat.

"Is that so? You got me good. My men that I trust can be so easily betrayed me like flipping a hand. If it is not because of him, I could see the sunrise tomorrow..."

Avriel is looking at a guy with light blue hair that is holding a staff while sitting on the tree's root. He smiles and closes his eyes.

"It is nice to be able to see the legendary assassin from Eluna Empire. It is an honor for me."

Avriel raises her eyebrow and scoffs. Diadre readies his stance.

"Enough with the talk. I still have some business to take care of... a thief that came here with you."

Avriel smirks and lifts her dagger.

"As if I'm going to let you go there. It will be too late for you when you killed me since he should have escaped from there by then. He is different and you won't be able to capture him."

Diadre smiles.

"We will see."
