“Emir, Dominic, and Faye. If my memory serves me correctly, then you three should be the geniuses that the Cross Blade Guild, Flying Hammer Guild, and Light Magic Guild have trained specifically for this year’s Emerald Elven Battle Competition. Am I right?” Edgar Pierce asked, wanting to confirm if he was correct or not.
“Yes, we are,” Emir nodded his head along with Dominic and Faye.
“Oh, since the three of you are present, then where is Osborne? Shouldn’t he supposedly be a part of your alliance as well?” Eme Clarity wondered in curiosity.
“He probably got washed away by the avalanche and is now already eliminated. As we all know, his body is so huge, so I doubt that he was able to outrun the avalanche. Or even if he could indeed do that, then I am guessing that both his Highness, Elmont from the Battle Maniac team, and that Guild Leader Loki from the Mischievous Lion Guild had pulled his leg down, causing all three of them to be eliminated together. Putui!” Dominic said before spitting saliva on the side and covering it with snow using his feet right after.
“Are you really sure? Maybe you are actually hiding them instead! After all, Osborne is with his Highness, Elmont, who is a battle fanatic. Thus they are less likely to get eliminated this early in the Survival Games, ” Eben Nero sneered, totally not believing what Dominic had just said.
“Look here, Eben Nero!” Faye pointed her fingers to her eyes before continuing, “I kid you not, but we honestly couldn’t care any less about what happened or where Osborne is anymore. That damn Orc whom we thought was one of our friends has betrayed us by joining hands with that despicable, hateful, and shameless Guild Leader Loki from the Mischievous Lion Guild!”
“Didn’t he learned of the news that it was because of the Mischievous Lion Guild why all of our three Guilds had to drop out from the top 20 in the Emerald Event! He caused all of us to be humiliated by tarnishing our honors and reputations as one of the major independent Guilds in the Emerald Tree Kingdom!” Faye gritted her teeth and expressed, “If I see that Guild Leader Loki in front of me right now, then I assure you that I will be the first one to charge at him and kill him for what he had done to all of us!”
“Though I can see clearly well just how much you hate Guild Leader Loki, I still doubt the truthfulness of your words. But let’s put that aside for now, as our conversation would not go anywhere if we continue talking about this topic,” Edgar Pierce said before quickly changing topic, “Anyways, as you can see around us right now, there are only twenty players remaining. I don’t know if this is indeed the exact number or not yet, but it is obvious that the majority of the players are present here,”
After all, there were twenty-five players that had participated in the Survival Games in the beginning, and there are twenty of them present here right now.
“Even if the five missing players are actually hiding somewhere instead of being eliminated and are simply waiting for an opportunity to appear, that would be another matter to take care of later. As of now, we should focus on the current problem we are facing,”
“There are nine of us here and seven of you there. As for them,” Edgar Pierce pointed towards the weakest alliance and said, “While they only have four players,”
Quickly understanding what Edgar Pierce wanted to say, Emir turned to look at the weakest alliance as well and asked, “So, what do you propose?”
Hearing Edgar Pierce and Emir’s words, the four players from the weakest alliance immediately felt tense. They gripped their weapons really tightly as they prepared themselves for a battle.
Edgar Pierce simply shrugged his shoulder off after seeing the four players’ reaction. He turned to look at Emir and proposed, “How about we team up together first and eliminate them?”
“I admit that what you are proposing to us is a great idea! But the problem is, what is in for us? You can’t possibly expect us to work together and receive nothing in return, right?” Emir smirked.
“Isn’t that obvious? Both of our alliances got to fight with each other without anyone interfering,” Eme Clarity replied.
“Say, Edgar Pierce and Eme Clarity, do both of you perhaps think of us three as fools?” Dominic asked while wearing a sneer on his face. He then continued, “Guess what? We are not falling for your trick! If we really choose to help you fight against these four players, then the result of that would be; we will have to fight the nine of you later on. And that’s not all, since the nine of you are also considered one of the strongest participants in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. In that case, there is no doubt that we will have the disadvantage,”
“Exactly, brother Dominic!” Faye nodded her head in agreement, as she then explained further, “However, if we help the four of them instead, then once we defeat all of you, we’ll only have to fight against much weaker players compared to the nine of you,”
“Hmph!” Eben Nero scoffed before saying, “Then we will also propose the same thing to them as well. Unlike joining hands with your alliance, our side undeniably has a much higher chance to win in the fight. So, what do you four say, team?”
Contrary to what Eben Nero was expecting, though, the four players suddenly started laughing. Their tense mood just a while ago is now immediately replaced by calmness and a slight hope of having the chance to go to the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition.
“Are these people really the representative sent by the three major Noble Households of the Emerald Tree Kingdom?”
“If only I didn’t know from the start, then I would have strongly doubt such an information,”
“Absolutely! Then are we joining the alliance of the major independent Guilds now?”
“Definitely! Is there even a need to ask that? Hahahaha!”
