Gods' Impact Online

Chapter 224 - Own Goals

Once the crack to hell was closed, Aria took care of the demons who arrived in the fifth wave. Victoria, the guild members, and the other players helped in killing all the demons.

However, even the demons from the first wave had spread across the entire realm, and it was impossible to defeat them all while staying in the capital.

But, only the demons from the first wave spread all over the first realm, since Aurora had annihilated the second wave before it could scatter around. And Zach had taken care of the third wave.

In the fourth wave, the demons were too scared to do anything, thus they didn\'t scatter. And the fifth wave was the same.

The demons from the first wave weren\'t strong, but they weren\'t weak either.

However, a player with level 20 or above could defeat them with minimal effort.

Still, the only way to ascend to the high realms or descend to the lower realm was through the portal. So all the layers in the first realm or any realm had to travel to the capital to access the portal.

Since there were players not in the capital and the other parts of the first realm, they couldn\'t do anything but either die running and hiding from the demons or die fighting and win against the demons.

Eventually, all the demons were eradicated from the first realm.

It would be strange to say that the demons had gone extinct in Gods\' Impact.

Once everything had settled down, Victoria met up with Zach and spent some time with him to comfort him. She was also worried about Aurora, but Aria reassured her and told her the same thing she told Zach.

After that, Victoria left for the guild with her guild members.

After reaching the flying castle, Shay and Victoria were called to Elliott\'s office.

Upon entering Elliott\'s office, they saw him sitting on his chair behind the table in a relaxed position.

He first looked at Shay and said, "Get to the side. I will deal with you later. But for now, let me ask Victoria some questions."

Elliott turned to Victoria without getting up from his chair and frowned his face.

"Victoria, how many members did I send with you in a dungeon expedition?" he asked with a knowing look on his face.

"5000," Victoria replied.

"And I heard you brought that narcissist ex-boyfriend of yours as well as one more girl." Elliot frowned his face and said, "Who told you to do that?"

"I don\'t need to take your permission regarding the raids and the expeditions. I am in charge of them. You don\'t even know how to properly handle them. So please, keep your mouth shut on this matter," Victoria responded without holding back.

She was going to leave the guild soon, so she didn\'t care about anything. Moreover, she had been holding back her words ever since she joined the Risen warrior guild, and now that she was leaving, she wanted to take out all her frustrations without holding back.

"That\'s no way to talk to the guild master!" Elliott yelled furiously.

Victoria simply shrugged her shoulders and said, "What did you call me here for? I highly doubt you want to talk about the guild members who died on the 75th floor. You don\'t care about them anyway. So what is it?"

"Who said I don\'t care about them? They were my precious guild members. What about you?" Elliott furrowed his brows and asked, "You seem perfectly fine, even after losing half of the troops. Could it be that they died because of your incompetence in guiding them?"

Victoria frowned her face and asked, "What are you trying to say?"

"Well you invited your ex in the dungeon expedition. And I got a report from the other players that they saw you talking with him all the time. You paid extra attention to him. They also said you used to disappear from time to time and come back with him after a while."

"..."

"So, tell me one reason to not blame you for their deaths?" Elliott asked with a smirk on his face.

"..."

"What\'s wrong? Did I hit the mark?" Elliott smirked wider.

Shay glanced back and forth at Victoria and Elliott as he thought, \'Elliott is purposely trying to make her angry. But why?\'

SIGH!

Victoria sighed and uttered, "If that\'s what you think, then so be it. No one gives a shit about your opinion anyway. And once I leave this guild, let\'s see how you manage to keep this guild together."

"Oho?" Elliott scoffed and said, "you give yourself too much credit. Don\'t forget that I am the one who created this guild, and I am the guild master."

"Yeah, right." Victoria let out a weary sigh and said, "Can I leave the guild now?"

"You cannot," Elliott replied instantly.

"Why not?" Victoria asked with a confused look on her face. "I already submitted my resignation letter. So why can\'t I leave?"

Elliott looked out a paper from under his table and signed it.

It was Victoria\'s resignation letter.

After signing it, he threw the paper at Victoria and said, "Did you truly sign it in a hurry and not even read the terms and the policies? It is literally written there that you can\'t leave the guilds until after 10 days of notice."

Victoria didn\'t trust a single word that came out of Elliott\'s mouth, so she read the policies, and sure enough, that was the case.

"You submitted your letter three days ago, so you can\'t leave for another week," Elliott stated.

"Why does such a rule even exist?!" Victoria retorted.

"Don\'t blame me. I am not the one who came up with these policies. It\'s a mutual policy of all the guilds, and it was decided by guild masters of the top 10 guilds of the Gods\' Impact," Elliott asserted.

"..."

"And this rule is only for the guild members with high posts, such as the vice-captain, the funder, the leaders of the teams, and… Et cetera Et cetera— because we have to find someone who can replace their posts."

\'He doesn\'t even know the names of all the posts in the guild…\' Shay uttered inwardly. \'I want to leave this guild and start my own, but I will stick here and gain the favor of as many strong guild members as I can. Then, I will preach them into joining my guild.\'
