It was currently nighttime in The Heavenly Domain. Most people were returning to their guilds and going into the bar to celebrate their full day of grinding.
Issac, after paying for his drink, took off to the recruitment area of Chaos Adventurer Team. It was being held at the city arena.
'Chaos sure looks rich. To even use the arena for its recruitment activities.' Issac thought.
Issac expected a lot of people to be waiting for the recruitment but, to his surprise barely about a 1000 people were there. After investigating for a while, his surprise turned to shock. The minimum requirement for even participating in the test was to be level 16.
Even after searching the whole of Blue Sky City, barely about a 100 people out of the 800,000 people staying there were level 16. And all these players could be considered elite who had been put to the core army of a guild.
And here Chaos was recruiting these elite players for their first division army?
Just what were the requirements for joining the core division army of this adventurer team ?
Issac sighed just by looking at the minimum requirement for taking the test. He currently was level 14, two levels below the requirement threshold. It was really hard to get to level 16. In the heavenly domain, the higher level one gets, the higher amount of exp one needs to gain in order to level up.
It was not that he could not win in a war against the Dominators guild as he was now. It was just that there was a huge difference between winning and thoroughly destroying a guild, making it never again be able to stand again.
The thought of the betrayal ran through the mind of Issac. His hard work and contributions for the guild, his mother's death all the past returned to Issac at that moment like a wildfire.
"No, I have to completely destroy them." He stated boldly with determination in his eyes.
Right then, a girl around who looked to be around the age of Issac approached the arena followed by a party of really powerful looking members.
She had a small but strong looking figure, was a little shorter than Issac, had blonde hair tied to a cute and charming ponytail and last of all had eyes that looked like an endless ocean that could mesmerize anyone.
Even Issac was startled for a moment before her.
"Hey look over there!! Isn't that Goddess Etna? The vice leader of Chaos Adventurer Team?"
"Huh? Woah!! Looks like you're right. Is she here to watch over the recruitment this time?"
"I never expected to see the beauty, the goddess herself with these eyes of mine. Oh!!! That heavenly gaze of her. She really is the most beautiful, isn't she?"
"Not only beautiful. Did you not hear? She was the one with the most kills of the enemy guild in the war against Starfish. I heard that even the core members of Starfish ran away just by watching her brutally murder their members. No one stood a chance against her."
"She really is the best. All hail Goddess Etna."
Issac got confused looking at the situation before him. All these people freaking out over the girl who looked to be around his age.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
'Is she really that amazing?' A question ran through Issac's mind.
***
"Look Etna your followers are here cheering for you. Ahh!!! Wish I was as amazing as you." The girl beside Etna who was similar to her in many ways teased her.
"Oh please don't joke around Taki." Etna said with an irritated look on her face.
"Huh? I am just stating the truth. Isn't that right, Goofy?" Taki looked towards Goofy, encouraging him to keep up the topic.
"Well to be honest you are right about it but, we are not here for that reason right now. We have to look after the recruitment today and also have to recruit anyone who looks capable enough for joining our party." Goofy said with a serious look on his face.
"Bleh!! You are no fun at all Goofy, serious about work as always. Do you even have fun, ever? It is just a waste of time if we are looking for a new member for big sis Etna's party. I have looked around and found one guy named Deteroy who is said to be an amazing Berserker player of Lecburgh. But, even he is not strong enough to work with us." Taki sighed as she said it was just a waste of time for them.
"Don't shout around much Taki. We have to complete our job here and we don't even know everyone's abilities yet. Who knows we might have some unexpected encounter this time?" Etna said as a hint of excitement flashed in her blue deep ocean like eyes.

Issac also got a little interested in the girl before him.
'When this many people were praising her, she must be amazing. I think I should talk to her about the recruitment criteria. After all she is one of the vice leaders as I've heard.' Issac thought.
People were making a large way for Etna and her party to go inside of the arena. The scene looked as if a king was walking around in his territory.
But, one person just kept on standing in the middle of the path created for them. He didn't make even one simple effort to move aside. This player was none other than Issac. He currently wore the dark cloak he gained from defeating the wolf king and absolutely no one could see his face.
Heck, people could not even tell if it was a player or an NPC.
"Hey what is that idiot doing? Doesn't he know about the goddess or is he challenging her?"
"Really a great fool. Hey idiot move aside."
The other players who were beside the path created for Etna started shouting at Issac. Without a care for their voices, he just stood there without even moving an inch.
"Hey Etna, look in front of us. Looks like one of you worshipers is just too desperate to meet you." Taki teased Etna once more as she smirked.
Etna was also thoroughly confused by this situation. She had seen people praising her and giving her all sorts of credits.
But, this was the first time a person had come to meet her in front of such a huge crowd. Etna was a little interested to see what the person before her really wanted.
"Hey creep move aside. Can't you see we have work ahead." Kane, one of Etna's party members shouted as they arrived before him.
"Now, now. I really have some things to talk about with your party leader there." Issac said in a very funny and peculiar way. He was calm and composed even in front of all those people shouting at him.
Watching the person before him staying calm and telling him that he wanted to talk with his party leader, Kane was thoroughly enraged.
"Do you really think that anyone can meet and talk with our party leader just by saying they want to? She has better work to do than meeting around with creeps like you."
"Hey, hey. I am just saying, there is nothing to get so enraged over this, is there?" Issac said as if he enjoyed this situation before him.
That was it.
Kane lost all his cool as a dark expression started to appear on his face. Even the people watching from the sides could feel the blood lust from Kane. They all unconsciously stopped chattering and for once silent filled the whole area.
"Wait! Kane you should not fight with any person you meet on the streets. Leave him be." Etna said as she looked towards Issac with excitement in her eyes. She really appreciated the courage of Issac for standing calm in all this situation.
She felt that the man before her was not as simple as she thought.
"Well then why don't we talk on the inside of the arena? This place may be a little inappropriate." Etna said as she guided the way for the mysterious black cloaked person before her.
"Well sounds all good to me." Issac started following Etna ignoring Kane and acting as all that had never even happened.
Even after a moment they entered inside the arena, the whole place was dead silent.
"He went in just like that ?"
Suddenly, the whole place was shaken by the situation that just unrolled before their eyes. They couldn't really comprehend what had happened.
The whole game forums was flooded by the talk about the mysterious dark cloaked person that they saw in front of the arena. This news even made the news about the recruitment of Chaos look like it was nothing.
