65- Outnumbered

The Black Company, an organization also lurking in the underworld, they are one of the biggest underworld organization in the Arcadia Universe, they are powerful organization but still pale in comparison to Darkness Below Organization.

"So they have also extended their claws in Alter Online?" White Reaper said deep in thought, Black Company is not in his eyes but he knew that if an underworld organization like the Black Company entered the Alter Online, it was not impossible to think that the other Underworld Organizations has also entered the Alter Online.

Ones that were also comparable to the Darkness Below Organization, but he sighed a few moments later, if it was the past then Darkness below was just among the top Underworld Organization but when Mark took over it, it's not just any top, it was the sovereign of the underworld.

That was how powerful Mark was, the ultimate creation of the founders of the Darkness Below Organization, "So what are we going to do?" White Reaper looked at Mark.

"Hmm, it's a perfect chance to see the improvement of the main force, let them take care of it, then we step in if something happens" Mark replied with a smile.

"Okay, you are the boss" White Reaper chuckled.

"..."

Chris and the others returned back to the base, they have become experienced from the training day had for a few days, though, it's not much improvement, they could now safely return back to the base without so many injuries,

Their progress in the maze dungeon had progressed a little bit, they are now mapping up the maze and also clearing out some traps.

The first thing they did as they returned was to look for the attackers, they already knew where the enemies were situated so they immediately climbed the walls and saw the tents laid on afar, there were many of them so they immediately knew they were outnumbered.

"Yo! you guys are back, nice scenery isn't it! hahaha!" Mark suddenly appeared out of nowhere beside them surprising everyone, his jolly expression seemingly like they are not in any problems at all.

Chris felt angry seeing Mark's annoying expression, "So this is your good news eh?" Chris's eyes glowed as she turned towards Mark, "Of course!" Mark proudly replied.

"So you are going to take care of them?" Chris asked as he looked at Mark,

"Uhh... no, you guys alone will take care of them, I have to go mining" Mark gave a salute then immediately jumped away.

"Wait no!" Chris tried to stop him but he was already far away, "T-that guy!" Chris felt frustrated, ever since they came into this world, Mark had become very unrestrained like a kid who was out of the basement, Chris didn't know what to do anymore, but she still love him nonetheless.

At least this time, she noticed that Mark started treating her as a girl, though, habits still remained to Tanaka though, so sometimes she gets treated like a guy.

"I'll go after him, stay here, and if something happens, help them alright," White Reaper said then turned towards his daughter who was standing beside him, he doesn't like leaving his daughter alone but he also wanted her to spread her wings and fly.

"Okay" White Rabbit nodded, with that, White Reaper smiled contently before also leaving away, White Rabbit looked at her father leaving and felt something was different about him today.

But after he disappeared, she shook her head and decided to follow Chris who she was very close with though, she doesn't speak much and only stands beside Chris.

"What are we going to do now?" Azi could not help but ask.

"You heard what he said right? he probably meant it" Raven shrugged, even though he only knew Mark for a few days, he somewhat knew Mark's personality, if he said it, he meant it.

"Well, let's gather everyone first, and talk about it, gather here in 5 minutes" Chris commanded and dispersed everyone.

Soon, everyone gathered around the wall, there were only about 14 of them, and not all of them knew how to fight, but they can still offer some help with firing bows.

"Approximate number is 73 people, according to what Nevermore found out. Chris read the paper in her hand.

"Aren't we too outnumbered!? furthermore, Nevermore is not joining!" Azi exclaimed loudly.

"If Nevermore is here, he will probably say, it's just numbers," Raven said in a bored manner.

"Well, he will really say that" Azi immediately became quiet after knowing that.

"We have already finished building the defenses and had been installed, we now have 3 crossbow turrets ready" Alexa raised her hand.

"That is good, let's make a plan then, we the main force will take the front while the others will stay in the back and defend the base, your leader will be Alexa, as for you White Rabbit, can you come with us?" Chris looked at White Rabbit.

White Rabbit looked at her and nodded and readied her bow, "Thank you!" Chris hugged White Rabbit, she knew White Rabbit was much more powerful than her so she will be a great asset in the incoming fight.

"Does everyone else have anything to say?" Chris asked as she looked at the others.

"None!" everyone replied.

"Okay, everyone prepare"

From the shadows, Mark and White Reaper were lurking listening to them, "hmm, this young girl has good tactics but it was still foolish, why not use the base as the high ground?" White Reaper could not help but sigh.

"Do you really think a student who was learning the business to know about war tactics?" Mark could not help but chuckle from hearing White Reaper.

"Uhhhh.... *Ahem, anyway, with my daughter with them, it would be not that difficult for them" White Reaper smiled dotingly.

"Yeah, yeah, let's go" Mark then blended with the darkness once again and disappeared.

As everyone got ready, Bob got out of his tent,m and just outside, his guild members were already lined up neatly, "Everyone has rested and ready" his adjutant reported.

"Good, let's head out! destroy them!" Bob roared excitedly.
