Chapter 243: Challenging The Ten Battles
"You ran away…?" Zach uttered what he just heard from Victoria"s mouth.
"Yeah." Victoria nodded and said, "I got in the carriage and came here."
"But you told me "I am finally free"..."
"I am, But I am not."
"Can you explain it in simple words without trying to make it complicated?" Zach sighed and uttered, "But scratch that. I want to know if you are still in the guild or not?"
"Technically no, but on paper yes," Victoria responded.
"Great." Zach facepalmed himself and muttered, "You are not trying to make it less complicated, I see."
"There are two types of rules for the guilds. One is the rules that the guild makes, and another is the rules that the game makes."
"Okay, now I understand a little better."
"The game already has rules that allow the player to make their own decision about joining and leaving the party or guild. For instance, there could be a guild forcing players to join them, but not allowing them to leave. But upon filing a resignation letter, the players have a chance to leave the guild," Victoria explained in simple words.
"Now I get it." Zach nodded as Victoria explained to him her situation.
"I think the game…. Or G.o.ds knew such things could happen, and thus they had a universal rule that applied to all the guilds including the top or the lowest, that the players can leave the guild whenever they want once they have filled the resignation letter— regardless of whether it was accepted by the guild master or not."
After a brief pause, Victoria continued, "But the limit for that was seven days. And today is the seventh day of me filing the resignation letter. So even if Elliott pulled his move, he can"t actually stop me from leaving the guild."
"But you are still in the guild, yes?" Zach asked to confirm.
"Yes."
"So… how do you leave it? I don"t want you in the guild."
"I am not sure, to be honest, since this is my first time happening…"
"I know how to do that!" a voice rang in the restaurant.
"...?"
Everyone"s gazes turned to the door to see Elliott and a few other guild members standing at the doorway.
Zach frowned his face upon seeing Elliott, but he kept his cool. He knew that Elliott was worse than a con artist, so there was no meaning in getting provoked.
Eliott looked at Victoria and said, "I knew you would be here."
"Why are you here?! And how did you even know I was here?" Victoria asked with a surprised look on her face.
"My guild is famous, and there are many who want to recruit. Just like me, they believe that my guild would one day become the strongest guild in this game. However, I can just allow everyone to join the guild, so unless they do something that could benefit me and the guild, they won"t be recruited."
Elliott snickered and said, "Someone saw you walking with that narcissist piece of s.h.i.+t and informed me. So I came as soon as I could to save you."
"What do you mean by "save me"?! You are the danger!" Victoria said out loud with nothing to worry about.
Zach was just by her side, and that alone was her strongest source of confidence.
"Victoria, I have come to take you back. Let"s go back to our guild and become number one together." Elliott then turned to Zach and uttered, "Leave this a.s.shole behind."
"..."
"Did you forget how much he has hurt you? People don"t change so easily, and he is just trying to use you. It"s still not too late to come back," Elliott uttered in a calm voice.
"Jokes on you! I am into that s.h.i.+t!" Victoria kissed Zach on the lips and glanced at Elliott from the corner of her eyes as she inserted her tongue in Zach"s mouth.
After a few kisses, Victoria smirked at Elliott and said, "I like the way he is, and I don"t care what he wants to do with me. You are not even 1% of a man compared to he is."
Elliott"s face twitched after seeing and hearing that. He glared at Zach and Victoria and said, "You s.l.u.tty b.i.t.c.h! You wh.o.r.e! I was ready to accept you even though you are a s.l.u.t, and yet you choose this piece of s.h.i.+t over me?!"
"..."
"You—!"
Elliott finally realized that he was surrounded by the NPCs, who were glaring at him and the guild members.
"What do you want?! f.u.c.k off!" Elliott yelled at them.
"You insulted our Lord, and for that, you must not go unpunished," the owner of the restaurant uttered.
"What are you—!"
CLAP~ CLAP!
Zach clapped his hands to get everyone"s attention, and then said, "Calm down, guys, I appreciate your loyalty, but I will deal with this personally."
Zach kissed Victoria on the lips and got up from his seat. Then, he stretched his hands in the air and yawned loudly to show Elliott that he was worried or scared at all.
Zach walked to Elliott and stood in front of him.
"..."
He glared into Elliott"s eyes and uttered, "The last time someone called my wife "b.i.t.c.h", he was hanged to a thousand needles. And you called Victoria by many words."
Zach cracked his fists and wondered, "What shall I do with you?"
Elliott stepped back and hid behind the guild members.
"Do you think hiding will save you?" Zach scoffed out loud and said, "No matter what you hide a s.h.i.+t, it will always smell s.h.i.+t. So it doesn"t matter if you bring one thousand members with you to save yourself, or you hide in your majestic flying guild castle; I will come to hunt you down."
"You cannot kill me!" Elliott retorted. "If you kill the guild master, the vice-captain would naturally become the next guild master. So if you kill me, Victoria would become the guild master, and then she would never be able to leave the guild!"
"...."
"If you truly want to free Victoria from her duty, then you must fight the ten strongest guild members, and win all the battles!"
