Chapter 721 Alliance And Loyalty
Villain Ch 721. Alliance And Loyalty
Allen spent at least half an hour weaving through the bustling streets of Ront City, his eyes keenly scanning the crowds for any signs of his targets. Every now and then, he would pause to check out the stalls in the market, snagging a few items that caught his eye. But his main focus remained on his mission – to gather intel and, if necessary, eliminate his targets.
Using his Hiding skill, Allen managed to locate several of his targets, discreetly eavesdropping on their conversations from the shadows. However, to his disappointment, most of them seemed more interested in chatting about the guild drama than discussing any plans related to hunting or combat. Read new chapters at empire
Frustration gnawed at Allen as he realized that his efforts to glean useful information were proving fruitless. If he couldn't find out their plans, he would have to improvise – and that meant potentially resorting to more drastic measures.
With a sigh, Allen weighed his options. Pulling off a dramatic show of force in the heart of Ront City could draw attention away from the guild drama and refocus it on the looming threat of the devil emperor. But it was a risky move, one that could easily backfire if he wasn't careful.
And as Allen predicted, the drama swirling around the Order of Valiance guild was just the beginning. The real action was happening behind the scenes, where the top guilds were quietly making their moves.
Unlike Sophia, who seemed to thrive on the drama and attention, the leaders of the top guilds preferred to keep their plans under wraps. They knew that revealing too much could be a fatal mistake.
Ironclad Legion, for example, was in a state of flux when Allen happened to eavesdrop on a conversation between Arcana, the guild leader, and several high-ranking members. They were deep in discussion about the recent drama surrounding the Order of Valiance and its potential impact on their guild.
Arcana was weighing their options carefully. He listened intently as his guildmates voiced their concerns about the fallout from the drama. Most of them were wary of being dragged down by association, especially considering that VirtualValkyrie, a member who had recently ambushed the devil emperor, was part of their ranks.
"If Yora has the audacity to drag Father^Alex into this mess, who's to say she won't do the same to VirtualValkyrie?" one member pointed out, echoing the fears of the group.
Arcana nodded thoughtfully, acknowledging the validity of their concerns. He understood that their reputation was at stake, and he shared their reluctance to be entangled in the drama. However, he also recognized the importance of loyalty and solidarity within their alliance.
"We can't let one player's actions dictate our course of action," Arcana asserted, his voice firm with conviction. "But I agree that Yora is the one to blame here, not Mac. He's been a steadfast ally, and we owe it to him to stand by his side."
The group murmured in agreement, their resolve strengthened by Arcana's words. Yet, despite their solidarity, Arcana remained undecided about their next move. He was torn between loyalty to Elio and the pragmatic concerns of his guild.
"We'll wait and see how things unfold," Arcana finally declared. "For now, we'll maintain our alliance with the Order of Valiance. But if things worsen, we may need to reconsider our position."
While the Celestial Vanguard guild, led by Red_King, was known for their decisive actions, they were also mindful of the delicate situation unfolding within the gaming community. Allen listened in on a conversation between Red_King, Mastercraft, Father^Alex, and several members of their guild.
Red_King's voice carried authority as he addressed the group. "Alright, everyone, listen up. I know you've all been following the drama with the Order of Valiance closely. It's time we make our stance clear."
A murmur of agreement rippled through the group as they waited for Red_King to continue.
"I've voiced my support for Mac, but we need to be strategic here," Red_King explained. "We don't want to get dragged into the drama any further. That's why, for the time being, I'm advising all of you to avoid teaming up with the Order of Valiance during our hunting sessions."
Mastercraft nodded in agreement, his expression serious. "We need to nip this drama in the bud before it spirals out of control. We can't let Yora twist the narrative any longer."
Father^Alex, usually reserved, spoke up hesitantly. "I understand the need for caution, but won't this further strain our relationship with Mac and his guild?"
Red_King shook his head. "We're not abandoning Mac. We're just taking a step back to prevent things from escalating. Besides, Mac knows where we stand. We'll continue to support him, but we need to be smart about it."
Father^Alex nodded reluctantly, realizing the wisdom in Red_King's words. "Alright, I'll follow your lead."
For sure, the two guilds would clearly not accept Sophia as their member. They knew she was a drama queen and could definitely destroy the guild's reputation. It was a classic case of being caught between a rock and a hard place. Both the Ironclad Legion and Celestial Vanguard guilds were faced with a dilemma.
They recognized her penchant for drama and the potential damage she could inflict on their guilds' reputations. However, they also understood the precarious position Elio found himself in.
On one hand, kicking Sophia out would only validate her accusations and could further escalate the conflict. On the other hand, allowing her to remain would mean tolerating internal problems that could potentially harm the guild from within.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Elio, as the guild leader, was left in a difficult position, forced to navigate the delicate balance between preserving the guild's integrity and maintaining peace among its members.
It became increasingly clear that decisive action would be necessary to resolve the situation. However, finding a solution that satisfied all parties involved would prove to be no easy task. The guild leaders knew they would need to tread carefully to avoid exacerbating tensions and causing further division within their ranks.
