The Villain's Story

Chapter 576  [576] War between guilds.

"So you know nothing?"

"Nope."

I sighed. I was wrong to think this guy even knew something at all. I called Kazikato here in order to get some information...but I should have known better. It is him, after all.

I facepalmed. This guy was even more lazy than me during anything. I could bet that he had done nothing at all, in class or outside but try to fall asleep. Well...because it's how he is, I am unable to blame him.

Taking refreshments out of my fridge, I tossed one to him, but it just hit his head. He didn't even bother to pick it up and just lay down on my couch. I stayed silent at it. Sitting down, I took his communicator and opened his contacts.

"Huh? Why are there so many girls here?"

I was stunned to see the majority of the names here being girl names... That was surprising, Kazikato was the last person I expected to be like Elijah or something.

He responded lazily.

"They just gave me their contact."

"What?"

To him? A dude who looks like a corpse? With sunken eyes and the desire to just sleep? Ignoring it, I scrolled down further but failed to find any numbers related to the students I just saw. He didn't have a single contact of the other guild members... I sighed at it once more and threw his communicator back at him.

"Why do you have no contacts of your fellow guild members? Don't you know how irresponsible that is?"

At this, he raised his head and looked at me for an extended period of time...making me realize I also didn't have any contacts of fellow guild members... I was in the same boat as him. It was due to this reason why I also checked his communicator instead of mine.

"Do you at least know where their dorms are? Their ranks within shield?"

Thankfully, it seemed he wasn't that ignorant. He did know about a few people.

"Yeah...but first."

"What is it?"

"Why are you asking me this, boss?"

"Just a hunch."

I wasn't really lying, at this point in time it really was just a hunch. Perhaps they really were injured that way in duels, or it was what I was expecting, but regardless. I wanted to get to the bottom of this hole.

"Anyway, go get him and all other first year guild members."

"Huh?"

At the sudden order, he tried to fall asleep and perhaps get out of it, but one smack to his head woke him up.

"Go up."

He tried to put up a final act of resistance as well, but it was for naught, I kicked him out my room and told him he had an hour to do it.

An hour later, All of them had gathered here in my dorm, all confused and skeptical...and some hopeful? The various emotions in their eyes were...great to see.

But I should get back to business.

"Alright, all of you. Strip."

********

Was I perhaps too brazen? I may have worded myself too...openly. What made the situation even worse was that some female twilight members were here as well.

"Ahem."

Kazikato, standing behind me with great struggle, coughed, to break the tension... But it didn't go as planned. They were all looking at me weirdly, about more than 3 dozen students, specially selected by Twilight as talented members, or future pillars of the guild.

I decided not to wait, I don't want to waste any more time in explanations and convincing them, so I used dragon eyes immediately. Which allowed me to see their bodies more clearly.

"Huh?"

"Kya!"

The girls shrieked, and the boys gasped in confusion. Calm down, you aren't that gifted in those areas.

But, regardless of what they were thinking, It appears I was right.

"Multiple wounds on all of you, bruises mostly and never anything that would show blood or require you to go to the clinic... And all of them are on places that you normally wouldn't show to others... Mainly your body, not the limbs at all... Although there are a few slaps marks on your faces as well."

The slaps marks were hard to see before, perhaps they happened long ago and faded... There were also instances of uneven hair distribution. Likely their hair had been pulled, and some fibers were ripped from their scalp. But considering how thin hair was, it was literally unnoticeable without dragon eyes.

I deactivated the skill, and asked.

"Alright, who is it? Titan or Behemoth? Or are they teaming up on you?"

If it was the former, where only one of them was doing this, I would just let it be. Clashes among the top three were really frequent. And it wasn't a bad thing, to be honest. It would develop a sense a bonding with their own guild, and a sense of revenge for the other ones. Or a drive to be better than them, no matter how short-lived it may be, it was helpful.

Therefore, if it was just a fight between the top three guilds, I wasn't interfering. If Behemoth and Titan were teaming up, then I would help somewhat...

But it was something else entirely. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"It's...a coalition to say."

"Coalition?"

One of the members said, quite a top ranking shield student, in the top 100s. I was confused by what he meant. "What do you mean?"

"It's not just Titan and Behemoth...the other guilds below us in the top 10 are also in on this. We could deal with Titan and Behemoth...even together, but this is just too much."

Ah, so it was more than just those two, huh... Since things have gotten like this, where more than two guilds are teaming up on us, I guess I have to be serious about this. "Alright, so how many of the top 10?"

After a moment of hesitation... He shakily said.

"All of them."

"... What?"

"... All of them?"

"... Yes."
