"Do you understand?" Michael asked.
"Let me get this right, you joined a Guild just for its members to protect Mira when you are in a game. You want to help them get stronger, so Mira's safety will heighten, and you are also challenging the Viper Guild next week and wants the whole world to know about it. Did I miss anything?"
"Nope, you got everything right." Jennifer replied.
Tyson looked at her then at Michael. "OK then. That's means I'm in, I haven't partaken in a Guild war for a while now." He said tapping on his bracelet.
" Done." He added.
"Don't worry, Rahond will reply to your invitation." Michael looked at the clock hanging on the wall. "It's late Mrs Jones, thank you for coming. But you need to get going before 8:00, You know how this city is, especially the neighborhood at that time."
"Oh yes! I almost forgot." Mrs Jones quickly stood up. "Take care Mira, you too Jennifer." She said.
Mira: "Thank you, Mrs Jones."
Jennifer: "Goodnight."
Michael thought for a moment and said. "I will drop you off."
"Oh Michael, you are always looking out for this old lady." She walked towards the exit.
"What are you planning?" Jennifer asked in a low voice, a frown settling on her face.
"You will know when I return." Michael spun her car key in his index finger. "Look after Mira." With that said, he followed behind Mrs Jones.
'Wait for me, Partner.' Drakon flew and landed on his shoulder.
"Won't you stay here?"
'No.' Drakon answered immediately.
He just nodded at Drakon and walked out, closing the door behind him.
"What are you still doing here?" Jennifer turned to Tyson.
Beep!
Tyson looked at his bracelet then raised his head to her, a smirk on his face. "I am now a member of your Guild, so you have to show me respect."
Killing intent flashed in Jennifer's eyes upon hearing him. "Show you respect?" She smiled mischievously.
Tyson took a step back seeing her smile. "It's OK, you don't have to show me respect, but can I stay here for the night?"
"You are really annoying." She grumbled, lying straight on the couch. "If you want to stay here, there is an extra room through that door." She pointed her finger at the door in the room, then closed her eyes.
Tyson sighed, he sat down on the single-sitter beside the window. 'This girl is really irritating.'
Mira moved her gaze from Tyson to Jennifer, her face filled with utter fascination. These two are like cat and rat, always against each other throats.
Jennifer opened one of her eyes, glancing at Tyson. "Both of you should have some rest. You too, Mira." She closed her eyes again after saying that.
Ricky and Levi looked at each other, then nodded at her, While Mira just relaxed on her bed.
Tyson stared at the two brothers for a moment and asked out of curiosity. "If I may, what are you two to her? Her friends, or Guards?"
"They are both my friends and family." Jennifer answered his questions, not opening her eyes.
Tyson just rolled his eyes hearing her answer.

[Night Time.]
[BLACKWATER NEIGHBORHOOD.]
[8:00 Pm.]
Michael stopped in front of the Building. He got out and helped Mrs Jones down.
"Thank you, Michael. It's already nighttime, You should stay in your apartment and move tomorrow morning." She suggested, worried written all over her face, thinking Michael will be heading back to the hospital at this time.
"Don't worry about me Mrs Jones, besides... I have him." He gestured at Drakon who was standing on his shoulder.
Mrs Jones nodded. "Take care then." She walked inside the building, leaving Michael outside.
He turned around, and walked towards the field. Which was used for the Guild war battle between the skull and Shadow Guilds.
'Are you ready partner?'
Michael nodded at Drakon and said out loud.
"Aren't you guys tired of hiding?"
Hearing his question. Countless figures started moving in the dark, and in matter of seconds, more than 20 men surrounded him and Drakon.
'A total of 30 hostiles, the strongest among them is a Silver player, some of them don't even have Mana.' Drakon said, its voice filled with disappointment.
Michael moved his gaze around him and asked. "Who are you, fools? Why did you morons started following us the moment we enter the neighborhood? Is this how bad the world have gotten?"
The middle-age man standing in front of him grinned. "It's nothing personal, kid. But your car can't simply be ignored, it's not common to see a Lincoln driving in this neighborhood. Moreover, you look Wealthy."
Michael looked down at his plain black clothes. 'Wealthy? Why didn't I know I'm wealthy?' He scratched his head in confusion.
"Do you think I'm wealthy?" He turned to Drakon.
'You have me, so you are wealthy.'
The middle-age man frowned slightly seeing Drakon. 'A pet?' He wasn't too surprised, a guy who could drive a Lincoln will surely have a pet.
"Ok kid, this is the drill. You will give us all your life times, and we'll let you go."
"Who really are you guys?" Michael couldn't identify any of the surrounding figures, they were all putting on black Robe and armed with daggers, Only the middle-age man was armed with a falchion.
"Don't we scared Kid, I am the guild master of the Blood Hand Guild, And these are my members."
Michael nodded in acknowledgment. "Blood Hand Guild..." He muttered in a low voice, then fixed his cold gaze at the man.
"Your Guild have troubled this Neighborhood for such a long time. I think it's time for someone to put an end to it."
"HA!! Are you that someone?" The man and his members laughed out loud.
The Blood Hand Guild have been operating for more than a year, terrorizing the neighborhood and its residents. When ever it passed 8:00 Pm, they moved out; Stealing, Raping and committing all sort of horrible crimes. By Daytime, they vanished and appeared again after it gets dark...
...And now, someone. A kid for that matter said he'll take care of them, which was clearly not possible.
'These guys are too arrogant, the strongest among them is only a Silver player, I alone can simply wipe them out.' Drakon grumbled inwardly.
"30, the highest I'd faced in one encounter, I hope you guys prayed before coming after me."
