Agatha The Legendary Guild Master

Chapter 94: An Attack on My Adventure Group

I didn't take a break as I continued to make swords without pause for nearly twelve hours. My previous plan of having already melted materials was a brilliant move, as the five pots were enough for me to last a couple of hours. That saved me a lot of trouble, effort, and time. 

It also helped in relieving the stress of melting materials in the right sequence. The only thing that I lacked was the power of cleansing, even after I used the skill book that I got from Nada, which helped in raising my cleansing efficiency for five percent.

'Forging Cleanse basic skill: for blacksmith lifestyle class only. it raises the player's cleansing efficiency by five percent.'

After this time, I felt strange as no one contacted me, not Shin, or even Drina. I recalled something, when I left the hall I received many messages from the game. Did this mean I couldn't contact anyone here?

I took my first break as I started to organize my swords. Surprisingly, I had over two hundred swords here, two hundred and thirteen to be precise. Out of these, I had seventy five silver grade swords, forty three white grade swords, and the rest were all bronze grade swords. 

I was excited for such a result which exceeded my expectations. During this, I managed to reach level fifteen a long time ago. I had some issues to solve, including the level of my equipment, as I could now forge level twenty equipment if I wanted to. 

That wasn't wise, as most of the players now were struggling to reach level fifteen. I sighed, as if I continued to make gears at level fifteen, the amount of XP I gained would drop drastically. 

I didn't hesitate for long, as I preferred the interests of my team over my personal ones. The next issue I needed to solve was the problem of communication blockade here.

"Senior, why can't I reach my friends while I'm here?" I finally decided to ask that useless senior, who remained silent and never spoke a word since his last disappointing shock.

"Any communication is automatically turned off so you won't be disturbed by the outside world," he replied with a dejected tone.

It was like I thought, so I asked at once:

"How can I activate it again?"

"Through your profile," he replied briefly with no enthusiasm at all. I felt next time I asked him, he wouldn't even bother replying to me. oh how I miss Nada, she was really kind to me. 

I ignored him as he ignored me while I selected my profile and thought about communications, to find a window with an option to activate it. it was really deactivated, so I chose to make it run. Just as I didn't even close the profile window, a system prompt rang in my ears, it wasn't one, but two.

'System prompt: Player Shin sends you a video call request. Do you want to accept or reject?'

'System prompt: Player Drina sends you a video call request. Do you want to accept or reject?'

'It seems I drove them insane by my absence, sigh.'

I muttered while I picked up Shin first, after all I wanted to check on the updates regarding my new team.

A window popped up as I saw Shin in front of me. Instead of seeing him relaxed and happy as I imagined, I found him stressed and his features carried a lot of strange exhaustion. I looked seriously to him, who was panting heavily as if he was talking to me while running, as I asked:

"What happened?"

"Solaris, it's the Solaris adventure group, they are trying to hunt us down. We were hunting monsters at a safe location nearby the town, but suddenly a group of one thousand players appeared and started to attack us. 

Half of the new members died on their hands, and now we are running away from them in the nearby forest. Stay at your place until I find a way to return with the boys safely to the town."

His words were so sharp that they caused deep pain to my heart. I clenched my fist as I said coldly:

"Try to avoid any contact with them, and I will solve this with them."

"What? Do you Solar" I didn't wait for him to say anything, as I closed the video at once and received the request from Drina. I knew what happened, as the news of my deal with Drina and her sister must have reached the ears of that bastard. 

I felt great anger, as this player thought highly of himself. Drina appeared at once wearing an anxious face, and when she saw me, her face turned red as she paused not knowing from where she would start. 

I knew how she felt, but this wasn't the time to waste any second doing nothing like this, and I didn't intend to blame her or her sister. Both of them were victims, victims just like me.

"Bring your sister now."

Although I tried to speak calmly with her, my words came out very cold. Drina's body shivered when she heard my words, as it seemed she mistakenly thought I was mad at her. 

I didn't have any time to waste, and it seemed her bigger sister was more experienced than her, as a taller, more beautiful female with a perfect body appeared in front of me on the screen. 

She was a swordsman, wearing full body armor, helmet, gloves, and boots of the same type. It was a whole set, and that made me feel how big the gap between me and those old adventure groups was.

"Hello, My name is miss Aria," that elegant strong looking female player spoke first greeting me, so I replied:

"Hi, I'm Agatha."

"Drina told me a lot about you, and now I can see she wasn't exaggerating. I believe you have already got a whim of what is happening right now to your group, am I correct?"

"Yes," I replied calmly, "I also know you have nothing to do with it, right?"
