An air of uncomfortable silence enveloped the each of them the second Silverfox’s sentence ended.
Her sarcastic reply had rendered Venn utterly speechless together with his tongue tied as he had a realisation that his plan had gone awry, and that now the tables had turned on him.
Resulting from the truth that he not often received into any fights prior to now timeline, being the library rat that he as soon as was, the sport mechanism the place one’s title could be revealed to their opponents at any time when they entered into fight had slipped previous his thoughts utterly.
He had calculated all the pieces completely, however had neglected this easy truth.
Heck, he may even see Silverfox’s title and standing himself as nicely hovering above her head proper now.
Along with his id of the sage uncovered, Silverfox’s had gained the higher hand of this negotiation deal regardless of him having her life at his mercy.
There was no use beating himself over that although, the tip outcome would nonetheless be the identical as his present scenario was unavoidable. It was Silverfox that ambushed him whereas he was taking a break from searching the mud wolves and it was simply plain dangerous luck.
The essential factor now could be to focus on learn how to take care of Silverfox nicely. He needed to significantly rethink his strategy together with her once more.
Negotiation is an motion the place each events cut price for what they want from the opposite social gathering whereas concurrently providing the least they may.
He initially thought that he may blackmail his option to a ticket inside a wild boss expedition group and leeched off innumerable expertise factors that the wild boss would give, however the scenario had appeared to grow to be haywire.
Venn’s present scenario was akin to having his trump card revealed, or placing it in different phrases – caught together with his pants down whereas within the midst of a masturbation session.
It was absolutely the worst factor that might have occurred to him.
In the meantime, whereas Venn was nonetheless in deep ideas, Silverfox, who was observing the dumbfounded Venn your entire time, smiled.
“Earlier than you deny any additional. I do know that I am right.” She mentioned with a smug glee on her face. In comparison with her teary expression only a second in the past, her face had brightened up tremendously and she or he gave the impression to be extra relaxed.
“I counsel you level your dagger elsewhere if you do not need me to spew my mouth away about your id. And now that I give it some thought, it is fairly peculiar that the well-known sage of Rosewell is only a stage 7 participant.”
“Inform me, how did you attain the title? Who do you’re employed for? It is positive if you happen to do not want to disclose your secret. Maybe we are able to collaborate on the queen quest if there is a chance. I am fairly honest about this. I promise I will not inform the others about your id.”
After she supplied an opportunity at a potential cooperation, she positioned her index finger on her small lips to point to Venn that she is going to hold quiet about his secret.
Nevertheless, Venn was sceptical about it.
There was no assure that what she mentioned was the reality, and he had no method of discerning the reliability of her promise, particularly when his secret can be utilized in opposition to him.
Additionally, the sudden change in behaviour was too suspicious.
From her actions, he deduced that Silverfox will need to have achieved contact together with her guild chief, and that she was instructing her by way of the in-game pal messages, a logical motion to do in her circumstances.
“Alright, inform me extra in regards to the wild boss that your guild has information on. The place is its location and the progress you and your guild are making.” Venn requested whereas squinting his eyes. “You need to present me your sincerity earlier than I can belief you.”
The malicious glare that Venn was emitting made Silverfox’s uneasy. Killing different gamers and monsters within the recreation was her robust level, not interacting with the others.
She had not often spoken to anybody apart from the younger mistress for nearly all her life.
Regardless of that, she tried to calm herself and reassured herself that finishing up the younger mistress’s orders was of the utmost significance.
Thus, going through head on with Venn’s chilly stare, she acted as pure as she may, repeating the directions given to her within the message log.
“The guild continues to be looking out the interior components of Maple Leaf woods for the whereabouts of the King Wolf. The chain quest that was given to one in every of our guild members by a NPC beggar in Storm Kingdom led us to this place. The hunt had revealed that the wild boss is most certainly hiding in an underground cavern situated someplace right here, together with the inheritances of the Grand Mage, Adeonis. We nonetheless want extra time to efficiently seek for its location, although.”
“In case you are , you possibly can be part of our group. In fact, I anticipate you to allow us to in in your queen quest as nicely. It is solely honest.”
Silverfox flashed a assured smile at Venn after ending her piece, she was sure that Venn would settle for the provide that she had made.
He needed to. Particularly when his appears to be like had been recorded within the in-game video.
Although Ivy League solely accepts feminine gamers, absorbing Venn as a part of the guild as an exception for the sake of the legendary celestial quest continues to be a worthwhile deal. In fact, whether or not the younger mistress deserted him afterwards would not concern her.

After decimating the hordes of hobgoblins charging at her expedition social gathering with a number of bolts of purple lightning together with her [Elemental] talent, Blue Lotus took off her helmet with each fingers and slumped down in opposition to the dungeon wall, taking a a lot wanted break.
Panting closely, her resolve to overcome the dungeon hardened.
The group that consisted of 30 elites of the guild had been combating continuous within the dungeon flooring for 3 total in-game days now, clearing 8 out of 10 dungeon flooring that made up the Void Worm’s nest.
A bit bit extra, and so they may attain the wild boss’s lair.
