The piece of new information instantly sobered up Gorak. He stood up from his seat in haste and started to barge out of the booth. However, he stopped himself.
He had already lost everything once. He was not foolish enough to brashly tackle this enemy a second time.
No, under no circumstances could he afford to underestimate this opponent again.
He walked back to his seat and sat down, cradling his head in his hands.
He waited for a couple of minutes and then opened his system interface to go back to the group chat that he had exited just earlier in the day, the chat group with the six guild leaders.
No one was actively chatting in the group at the moment and, the place was a complete dead zone.
Seeing this, it was abundantly clear that every one of the guilds were probably going through the same thing he was at the moment.
This once again reassured him that his decision to deal with this more patiently was indeed the right one.
