-Order of Light Guild Hall-

"Any updates about those two?" The leader asked the guards looking for Celeste and Zeth.

"They're still on their way sir. Also, we can't find Scythus at the moment. It seems he logged out from the game to lay low," He reported.

"That's alright. We need to prepare for his arrest when he shows up. How about his friends?" Now they're trying to involve his friends.

"His friends are not part of the crime sir. We haven't seen them since this morning. He fought by himself, sir,"

"I'm sorry for what happened earlier, Sir. The guy used some kind of dark magic..." Deandre's back and while he's talking he was stopped by the guild leader.

"I know... you shouldn't underestimate your foes. What on earth happened? That guy wouldn't just attack you without you doing anything! Tell me the truth or I swear you will be punished!" He was so angry at what happened.

"To tell you the truth sir, we were just trying to check if he truly defeated the Giant Bear so we tried to test him but it happened so fast I realized I wasn't in the game anymore," He told the truth, partially, but what will happen to him? Making a dumb decision created this mess.

"That's why you shouldn't judge people. Anyway, he still committed a crime so... you need to arrest him with Celeste and Zeth later," Don't judge people he says.

"Sir, I can arrest him this time. I will do my best..." he got cut off again.

"No! You should know by now that you can't beat him. Let's not do anything idiotic," Good one, leader.

-Aries' Home-

I logged out from the game earlier to prepare for dinner. We ate our dinner and talked for a bit. I really just wasted my whole day hiding... what a waste.

"Hey bro, don't wander around the city. It's really dangerous there right now. Tonight, when the guild officers arrive, we will hunt someone down," Mari said, "we"? So maybe she'll join to hunt me down. Too bad.

"Oh. It sounds serious. Thanks, sis. You should be careful too. They said he's really something, fought like a madman," I replied and warned her, though I will never touch even a single strand of her hair.

This time, I've wasted too much time idling around instead of ranking up or hunting. This is all Deandre's fault!

After doing my daily activities I went back to the game.

-Light's Tavern-

I'm really running out of time... Where, the heck, are my party members? They should be up by now.

"Hey, Scy what's up! We just logged into the game." Speaking of the devil. Elou whispered to me. Jeez, clueless bunch.

"Go to the tavern and try not to attract too much attention. Are you with the girls? I asked.

"Oh yes, they're with me. Wait for us there," He replied.

They came. Though they're really curious why there's no one inside the tavern. After I met them I explained what happened. They were shocked at first but they managed to accept the reality and somehow, they believed me.

"Aww too bad. No rewards for us. So, what should we do? They haven't created a wanted sign yet. Do you think we should go to the other cities or stronghold? This place is really not good for us," Akko asked and she's kind of upset about what happened.

"That's right. We still don't have the wagon though so I think the only way is to travel by foot. Is that ok with you guys?" Oh man, what a waste of gold. I don't think we'll ever get it.

"Of course. You saved us a lot of times and this is the only way for us to repay you," Did I? really? Anyways, I can trust them. I know.

"Let's go before Celeste or others arrives," They nodded.

-Order of Light Guild Hall-

"Sir! We found them and it seems they're with Scythus. They're currently trying to leave the city for good," One of the guards reported.

"Damn it! How about the officers? Are they here yet? Tell Deandre to get Marie and Azzie to slow them down. I know the capabilities of his party members. They're around more than 60. They won't do much," He has no idea.

"Of course, Sir," He departed as soon as he gets the order.

-West Gate of Order of Light-

We're almost at the outer gate of the city. It will be easier.

*TOT TOTOTOT!* It's the annoying sounds of the horns again.

"Lock the gates!" A familiar voice ordered the guards to close all the gates. The gate which is even the giants can't climb. It's Deandre! Damn it he's back.

"Stop right there! You, filthy man!" He pointed his sword towards me. Seriously? He doesn't learn how to respect people who are stronger than him. Jeez.

"Are you seriously pointing your sword towards me? You want to get beaten up again?" I asked provocatively. I know it's a bad choice to intimidate him now that we're outnumbered but he is really annoying.

"This time I'm not alone. I'm with the best support of our guild Marie, the "Angel's Hands", and Azzie the Fire Master!" Did he just say, Marie! Damn it, Sis, why are you here!

I covered my face as soon as I heard my Sis' name. Thank goodness, I'm wearing my usual hood and cloak.

"Scy what's the plan? We can't escape here that easily. We're surrounded and outnumbered," Akko asked because she's a bit worried. Well most of the times, we are actually outnumbered. This isn't the first time.

"Calm down, you guys are strong. We've been through a lot these past few days. This is just another hurdle for us. I will try to destroy the gate later so cover me up when we're at the gate," I suggested.

"Stop joking around. The gate is basically the toughest structure here," She replied.

"Just believe me," Akko, you just have to trust.

"So, what's your next move? Do you think you can escape from us? You dared to attack the best guild! Guards attack them!" The freaking jerk ordered the guards to attack us.

They charged towards us! The sound of their footsteps is like from the movies. It trembles the ground. The sounds of swords and shields hitting each other are excited to hit our bodies. Every one of them readied their offensive stances to attack us.

"LIGHT PUSH!" Lili used an offensive support skill! That skill knocks back foes around and slightly blind them with light!

The guards who got hit by the attack flew away, though it's not enough to end their life. It's a spell to slow the enemies down from advancing.

"FLAME BREATH!" Akko released a continuous fire to attack Deandre! It was a powerful attack but he managed to block it with his shield!

"This time, you're all going to die here!" Deandre cried with anger! Man, he's pretty sturdy with that shield.
