Pride Online

Chapter 581: The Goal is The Fiftieth Floor Part II

“You still remember my intensive courses for the boy? I’ll use that with you, too.”

Goosebumps were everywhere after those words. Wisana and Kongkiat were calm. Maybe it was because they were used to it.

“I-I guess we have no choice.” Maysa’s voice trembled. “Please think about the time we need for resting and travelling after this, too, before we get into the war.”

“No problem.” Baron beamed at her. “A five-day training. Three days for item preparation. One day for resting, and another one for travelling. Sounds good?”

Everyone glanced at each other after that easy-sounding schedule. They all knew that it would be a living hell!

“I asked if it sounds good. Where are your voices, kiddos?!” Baron shrieked.

“Yes, ma’am.”

The voices were the weakest they had ever sounded.

“Then, don’t waste any more time and split for the training.” The masked woman said. “Little Vincent and Shindanai The Hunter, come with me. The rest of them I’ll leave to you, Sander.”

A small hand of a girl was raised. Baron halted.

“What is it, little girl?”

“May I go with my love, too?”

It was Sarquros. Wisana raised his eyebrow a little, yet it was not surprising. Mona Lisa would be another one who raised her hand and asked for training with her father.

“Your love? Who?” Baron asked.

Sarquros pointed at Wisana. The masked lady halted.

“They’re dragons under my contract. That’s the mother, Samie, and that’s my daughter who was born from my and Samie’s blood, Mona Lisa.”

Baron’s heart skipped a beat. She dashed at Wisana and fiercely yanked his collar.

“So, they’re your wife and daughter?” She shouted.

“Huh!? Don’t be so misleading! I’m telling you they’re under my contract. The kid was an egg that I spared my blood to bind her. Hence, my daughter.”

“I know. Why didn’t you tell me anything?!”

The boy raised his eyebrows.

“A-And why do I have to? We’re not even related.”

Baron halted again. Her brain just told her that she should not be related to this boy in any way. Then, she slowly loosened her grasp on the collar and scoffed loudly.

“N-Nothing. If you told me about the dragons beforehand, it’d be easier for your training.”

“Huh?”

Wisana was surprised, while Baron glared at Sander who only shrugged. He looked back at her mischievously as if to say “Sorry, forgot to tell you”.

“Fine,” Baron said loudly. “Both of you come with me. But don’t mess with these two’s training, alright? If you really have to, you can only train by yourselves to unlock your skills, deal?”

“Yes!” The dragon girls said.

“Excuse me.”

It was Manoch and Mek who raised their hands. Baron and Sander turned to them.

“We ask to be excused because we have to repair the ship. We’re not fighters in the first place anyway and mainly stay in the ship.”

“Ah, you sure? That’s a shame, but I won’t stop you.” Sander regretted it a little.

Hearing that, the boys sighed in relief. The repair was their main goal, but actually, they just did not want to join the evil training with the man.

“You and you, follow us.”

Baron pointed at Stella and Aerin. They were startled because they were about to excuse themselves and go back to the nursing unit.

“We’re not fighters either,” Stella said.

“I know.” Baron beamed at them. “But I think you should be there to heal these little guys. Believe me, you girls are crucial to this training.”

The two nurses glanced at each other.

“Stella, you can go with Baron. Aerin’s enough for my team.”

“Are you sure? There’re more people in your group. Shouldn’t the one with a higher level like me go?”

Sander smiled sweetly at her. However, that smile made everyone feel so uneasy.

“Believe me, it’s worse in Baron’s group. You won’t be able to rest. I’m not that bad. My training doesn’t require a doctor.”

He turned to his students, who started to group up and hug each other in fear.

Meanwhile, Wisana walked up to Baron with a worried face.

“Are you sure ten days is enough for this?” He asked.

“I told you already, didn’t I?” She smiled. “You have me. You’ll be the best players in Pride in no time.”

Hearing that, he sighed and reluctantly nodded.

“Where are we going to train?”

Baron smiled and winked.

“Since you’re in a desert area already. A bad boy like the Nasen dungeon should be the best place!”

Thud!!

Meanwhile, in the Drago Hild hill in the west, a strong topless man was standing there. Sweat was dropping along his tanned skin. His black hair was put up in a loose ponytail. He, then, turned around and grabbed a towel to wipe off his sweaty face.

He looked at the back and saw heaps of dragon corpses. It was obvious that it was all his doing. Even though he had killed hundreds of dragons, it did not satisfy Marcus of the Dominion at all.

“Tsk! So boring. Isn’t there any enemy of my level here anymore?”

His words were harsh. He wiped his face with the towel again.

“Leader~ Leader Marcus, I have big news!”

Suddenly, the guild’s chief of staff, Wittaya, ran up to him and stopped in front of his face. He panted so hard that his body swayed.

“What is it?” Marcus asked, not letting the other man have time to rest.

“Umm... Umm... Umm...” The small man tried to say something, but it was like a broken record.

“If you joke around with ‘I’m a broken record’, I’ll kick your ass.” Marcus threatened.

“O-Of course not.” Wittaya shook his head. “T-The Cataral and the Nemesis are on the move.”

“What?”

----------------

In Venesia, to the south, a man was sleeping faced down on the desk inside the room of Pandora’s leader. He even snored and drooled. It was obvious that he got so bored of doing nothing that he accidentally fell asleep.

Knock Knock Knock!

There were knocks on the door. However, they could not wake the man up.

Knock Knock Knock!

The knocks sounded again. There was still only silence.

Bang!!

The last sound was the loud one of the door opening by force. The sleeping man was startled and sprang himself up. He even pretended to read a document.

Once he came to his senses, he glanced at the door and saw a familiar girl who barged in without permission!

“I told you to knock before you come in, Emwika.” The man said. “Even though you’re the chief of staff, it doesn’t mean you have the privileges.”

“I understand, sir.” The woman said sarcastically. “You, too. Even though you’re the guild leader, you won’t have the right to sleep while everybody else’s in turmoil, leader Lavi!”

Lavi, one of the four gods and the leader of Pandora halted.

“I’m sorry, baby.” He tried to make a cute face. Emwika never saw that face cute!

“And please stop being so silly.” She said.

“Uwah... In a bad mood?” He asked.

“No. Something’s happening.” Emwika talked with a serious tone.

“Huh? What is it?”

“The Cataral and the Nemesis.” The secretary sighed.

----------------

“This is the chief of staff of the Nemesis. We’ve sent a special order for every single Nemesis member around the world to come to the appointed location that we sent to your guild communication channel. I repeat. Please gather at the appointed location as soon as possible. We’re going to join the fight in Tristan in ten days. Our objective is not to side with any guild, but we’ll attack everyone who gets in our way and destroy the crystals. I repeat. Please gather at the appointed location as soon as possible. We’re going to join the fight in Tristan in ten days...”

Maysa made an announcement through the international channel about two hours after Sven’s.

Their announcements brought a smile to both Marcus and Lavi, even though the men were a hundred miles apart. They thought the same thing.

“This is going to be fun!” Both gods shouted.
