Rebirth: Over the Horizon

Chapter 101 - Guild Wars Has Started!

Adam was lying on the soft ground, soft grasses grown on the ground gave his body a soothing feeling as his eyes slightly dragged into his head.

[You have cleared Nether Fire Dungeon]

[You have completed the hidden mission of recovering the Land Vitality.]

[+EXP]

[+Nether Fire Ring]

[Hidden reward: Book of Nether Fire]

His eyes became wide open by seeing the series of notifications blocking his vision.

[You have reached LvL: 92]

[+3 Skill Slot]

'What hidden reward?'

He didn't expect to trigger the hidden mission and even clear it, but there were more pressuring matters on hand.

[+1 Message]

"Open chat"

Adam glanced at the system chat and found out it was Azumi who has delivered him a message.

[Azumi: It seems the guild Wars has started.]

After reading this message, Adam's lip's slightly curved up and an elegant smile formed on his face.

Both of them quickly left the dungeon and teleported to Guild HQ.

----

Magitaricks HQ, Snow Territory.

The guild office was under the pressure as the Vice-leader of the guild, Azumi held the responsibility to calm down the situation.

But, her requests were only ignored.

Under the leadership of the legendary dryad, many beautiful wooden elves gathered at the hall of discussion.

But, they were constantly glaring at the orge group who were sitting across them.

On the other side, the merman was showing off their wealth towards the pirates who were sitting beside them under the lead of Velara blood blade.

"Ah, look who are they?"

One of the mermen glanced at the pirate sitting a few cms away from him and snickered.

"Hey, isn't it the little thieves hehe," Another one commented and laughed.

"I wonder why are they here?"

Emily and Aaron turned blind eye to the comments made by the mermaids.

"Watch your mouth!?"

"How dare you, lowly fishes dare to have the audacity to speak towards us like this!?"

Velara was already out of her control, she emitted an intense blood lust towards the merpeople.

"I don't know why his Lord, Adam has included the likes you in his army, Hazzii.. these meatheads."

Hearing these words, Velara unsheathed her sword, she wasn't called blood bade for no reason.

Velara quickly covered the distance between the merman and her sword shoot towards his neck.

Other merpeople didn't even have a single second of time to think about what's happening...

Suddenly a katana flew across the hall and hit the golden sword which Velara was holding.

"Ting..."

The katana fell on the ground and broke into two, even though the katana broke the impact from it was huge.

Velara sword vibrated and her whole buzzed, the only reason her sword didn't break was that it was a legendary weapon gifted to her by Methris.

"I HAVE CLEARLY REQUESTED ALL OF YOU TO STAY QUIET"

A loud yet crystal clear voice pierced the ears of the people who were sitting in the hall, and instantly neck grasping intense pressure enveloped the room.

"PLEASE STAY QUIET TILL THE GUILD LEADER ARRIVES"

[Authority]

It was due to this skill, Azumi was able to show this kind of dominance.

It was one of the Unique skills she got from passing Athena's trial and becoming her apostle.

But, there was one person who was sitting steadily even yawning while experiencing Azumi's pressure as it was nothing.

But, she didn't bother him to show her dominance and quietly sit beside the man.

He was sole the reason, why the whole guild had to gather here, even the guild master has to stop by.

After a few seconds of silence, the door become wide open, Adam and Ariana entered through it.

Ariana quickly parted with him and sat beside Azumi, both of them smiled and nodded to each other.

While Adam climbed the stage and arrived before a podium like structure.

"SORRY FOR THE DELAY."

Adam started to speak, and all of them started to listen to him clearing their previous thoughts.

"THE REASON I HAVE ASKED YOU ALL TO STOP BY IS THAT WE ARE GOING TO FACE A WAR."

Hearing this most of the people in the hall had a smirk on their face, obviously, they were too confident.

The only group who had no response was the giants under the leadership of Colosson who was sitting far beyond the stage and most of the giants had literally fallen asleep.

"Haha...Hahaha..."

Odd to the atmosphere, an old man but with a well-trained body laughed out loudly.

He was like a next-door grandpa, the only difference was his body was well trained, he had a sword on his hip.

His identity didn't seem as simple as he looked, "Hahaha...It's truly hilarious..." he caresses his beard and laughs.

"To tell the truth, I didn't expect you to have this many people under you, and on top of that they are from my world."

"But, they also seem to have immense respect towards you."

Adam didn't like his behaviour, even though he was the one who is going to give out mission and reward points for them.

He acted like a Lord who was talking to his sub-ordinate.

"Then, why did you laugh, SIR?"

"It's because I imagined the faces of these people when you abandon them and run for your life."

The room fell into a deep silence, even though he said things like these, no one dared to go against him.

[Holy General]

[Lvl: 142]

It was because his level was too high and everyone knows that it would be an instant K.O if they fought against him.

But, these types of simple taunts and provocations were child play for Adam, he had fallen into these types of traps so many times in his previous life.

Adam maintained his neutral smile and said, "That is just your wishful thinking sir, even if this world turns upside down, I will never leave them behind."

Hearing his statement, everyone regained their vitality which was lost a second ago.

The old knight's mouth twitched and he thought, 'I didn't expect this otherworldly bastard to have this much mental resistance.'

He raised his fingers and made a skilful snap, and system notification appeared before Adam and the players sitting inside the great hall.

"I will see that After you complete this mission."

With that, he disappeared from the hall, gaining many haters from different races.
