Battle of Ascension

Chapter 487: Raid (1)

A week passed by, Malkin's territory now became a human's territory. More and more people gathered and joined The Alliance. Dragon Dynasty, New Korea, and Eternal Shogunate gathered here with their complete member.

Heroes Land, Olympus, and Wind, the three top guilds of Europe also joined the Alliance. Of course, there were many more medium and small guilds joined as well. With such force gathered, as long as there was no internal strife or besieged by the native tribes. Alliance members would go back safely to Earth.

The camp became even more crowded with more people gathered. Happy Guild itself was not affected by the crowd. They did what they planned to. Though the other guilds noticed Happy Guild was doing massive action since a week ago. However, they truly did not know what Happy Guild actually did during the last week.

Of course, during this last week, because more guilds gathered and joined the alliance, a management team formed. This management team was tasked with the lodging matter. They were the one decided about this.

Now, this management team knocked at the entrance of Happy Guild compound. There were five men with a flashy armor stood before the entrance of the compound.

Udin, Erwin, and Pristine faced these three young men and two middle-aged men. They wanted something from Happy Guild.

"We are from the management team!" A young man in his early twenties strode forward as he spoke to Udin.

Did not know where he came from, but he looked proud with a tinge proudness even faced the core members of Happy Guild.

Udin, Erwin, and Pristine had a stoic look as they heard this. But their face was akin telling the young man, "So what?". This was what the young man perceived upon looking at these three faces.

"You" The young man almost lost his temper, but a middle-aged man tapped his shoulder. The middle-aged man shook his head at the young man and stepped forward 

"My name is Arwin and we come here to convey Management Team's decision!" The middle-aged man was polite compared to the young man. He introduced himself and told his purpose coming here.

"What the relation between Happy Guild and the management team's decision?" Udin frowned.

Happy Guild was busy with their big transformation. So Happy Guild did not join the one so-called management team or the alliance decision. It was as if Happy Guild was not related to any matter of alliance, but just an ordinary member of the alliance without a task.

"Yes! Management Team decided to take half of Happy Guild's compound area to provide more lodging for the newly arrived guilds. As you know, Happy Guild compound is much bigger than the other guild compound" Arwin was explaining why the management team decided to mix other guilds to Happy Guild's compound.

Yes, Happy Guild's compound was much bigger and the thatched hut was built sparsely. Arwin's explanation was reasonable if if the alliance had only a limited area. But it was not the case, Malkin's territory was huge. The Alliance did not even occupy half of the territory, there's more land outside there yet they chose Happy Guild's compound. It was clear this management team was targeting Happy Guild.

"Hell like I care! We will not cede our compound to any guilds or the thing called management team!" Udin responded in an instant.

"I am sorry. We come here only to convey the management team decision. You can file a complaint to our upper management team if you do not agree with the decision!" Arwin responded politely, while on the other side, the young man smiled smugly.

Basically, Arwin was telling Udin this was Alliance's decision. If he did not agree, it meant you have the face the whole Alliance member.

But to their surprise, Udin grinned, "Then over my dead body!"

The young man's face changed, the same for the other four. They did not expect Udin would say this. This was the same as a war declaration. Arwin wanted to say something but hesitated. He afraid Udin would respond to him with an extreme response. Udin was famous for his hot temper, Udin the Berserker.

Arwin was afraid he would spark Udin's anger if he continued further. It was just a trivial matter actually, but Arwin could not step back. Just as Arwin fell into a dilemma, there was a voice interrupted them

"Oh, what happened here? Who are they?"

Arwin looked to the voice and found a young man strode toward them. Even though Arwin did not recognize the young man, but based on the words, the young man had a high position in Happy Guild.

Of course, this young man had a high position, he was the leader, Randy. Arwin only never met Randy in person, so he did not recognize Randy.

"Boss, good morning!" Udin and Erwin greeted while Pristine strode toward Randy.

Hearing this, Arwin jolted awake. This young man was the Boss of Happy Guild. The living legend with never-ending tales, at least, this was what happened in Europe.

Yes, Arwin was Wind guild member. He heard and read everything about Randy in Forum or from the mouth who participated in the unforgettable match between the seven top guilds against Happy Guild.

Hearing the elite of seven top guilds could not even win a match was shocking enough. Yet this man also managed to get David, The God of Death joined Happy Guild.

Somehow, meeting this person made him nervous. Based on the rumor, Randy was "amiable" in his way.

Pristine whispered what happened here. The management team intention and who these people were.

Randy nodded his head, indicating he understood. He walked to Arwin front. Arwin became nervous. What should he do if Randy refused?

"Hmm, so when you are going to overhaul this compound?" Randy asked.

"As soon as possible! Our camp is flooded with many people. we hope Happy Guild can move out for a while, so we can do our work!" The young man beside Arwin answered. It seemed this young man had a big back up, even faced Randy he could act haughtily.

As for Arwin, he was nervous. As soon as he met his eyes with Randy's, he flinched. He did not dare to look Randy in eyes. But he could not go back, he had his own task from the top.

Randy did not even spare a glance at the young man. He held his chin for a moment before looking back to Arwin, "Hmm, good. We will move out, but can you give us an hour? After an hour, you can do everything you want to this place!"

The young man wanted to say more, but Arwin prevented him. Randy already relented to them was good enough. This meant he had achieved his goal, there's no need to confront Happy Guild unhappily.

Arwin bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you for your cooperation. We will work as fast as possible. So you can have your compound back at night."

Randy nodded his head and walked back to the main thatched hut, where Happy Guild usually did a meeting.

"Boss! How can you let them do as they want! They are clearly aiming us! We can't let them have their way!" Udin completely disagreed with Randy way to process.

"It just a trivial matter, they are not worth our attention. Moreover, we don't need this compound anymore. We will move to the East today!" Randy shrugged.

Of course, he knew they were aiming at his guild. Moreover, he knew the reason why they did this. It was to find out what Happy Guild did during the last week.

Last week, Happy Guild compound had a tight guard every night. The other guilds certainly curious and wanted to know, so they wanted to minimize the Happy Guild compound. A smaller compound was easier to investigate.

Of course, besides curious, there were also a few guilds jealous. Even Happy Guild was part of the alliance, but Happy Guild was free. There was no task or obligation to them. Happy Guild did what they wanted to, they granted Happy Guild as a freeloader.

Nah, no matter what the reason was, Randy did not care. Instead, he was waiting for this day, he could separate from the alliance and moved freely. Trial Island was an island full of treasure, it would be waste if only stayed in this area.

However, he did not have a good reason to leave the camp. Now, these people were giving him a reason to move out. Though he did not need a reason to leave, however, this way was better.

"Oh, are we going to leave the camp for real?"

"Hmm, so get prepared. We will move out in an hour. There are still a few who still not wake up yet from the bloodline integration! We will move as soon as they wake up!"

Randy gave Udin a confirmation. Meanwhile, Pristine let out a sigh. She just did not understand the train of thought these people. There was a Happy Guild as assurance for their safety here, the person who could defeat Divine Grade Native.

Not only these people try to curry favor of Happy Guild. They were always looking at trouble as soon as they felt the camp was safe. Pristine really did not understand at all.

An hour later, Happy Guild moved out. Of course, there's no one knew the Happy Guild would not come back here anymore. They thought the Happy Guild was just doing their routine as usual. Hunting in a big group.

Of course, before leaving the camp, Randy and David stopped by to Limera to say farewell.

"We will part here! I will visit Sacred Tortuga after we back!"

After that, David and Randy left.

Actually, Limera tried to detain Randy and Happy Guild. However, Randy was insisting to leave. She could not do anything about this.

As Randy got out, Hermione was outside.

"Take this!"

She tossed a red stone to Randy. Randy caught the red stone, but he felt nothing special except its exceptional color. Randy cast a puzzled look to Hermione.

"I can track your location with this stone," Hermione explained the use of the red stone before added another sentence, "Just in case we need your help!"

Randy grinned, "But they have you here. You alone is enough, right?"

Hermione shrugged and left.

Happy Guild moved out and only Sacred Tortuga knew about this. Even Arwin was still thinking he had achieved his goal. No one suspected Happy Guild would move out for real.

They were still thinking they needed cooperation to survive on this island. That was why they never thought Happy Guild would move out at all.

Meanwhile, 30 miles to the west of camp, there was a huge force gathered. It was a mixed force of human and beast. There were about ten thousand beasts, two thousand beastmen, and eight thousand humans.

In the foremost line, there were four beastmen and seven humans gathered. If Randy was here, he would recognize these four beastmen, Nil, Cradio, Pigloin, and Hawkin. Not only them, Joseph Triston, Amir, and Vanus Sebastian of Evil Clan also here. Subas Banstola of Warlord also stayed with them.

"Boss, the camp is 30 miles to the east. We will reach the camp soon!" Vanus Sebastian reported with respect to the four beastmen.
