Second World
chapter-1220

Jeanny had a good idea who those two were. She sent a message to Jack, "Hey! Are you and Arthur the ones who had just charged into an ethereal regiment?"

Jack had informed Jeanny about his activity with Arthur these past few days. They were acting separately but were keeping in contact with each other.

"Yeah, are you among the group whom I saw rushing into these troops?" Jack asked back. "I see that group as green dots in my radar."

"That's us," Jeanny said back.

"Go somewhere else. We got this," Jack said.

Jeanny looked at the ethereal regiment in the distance. There seemed to be a disturbance in their midst and they were slowing down.

She believed those two should be all right. Jack was right. It was better for her to go aid another fleeing group. Their current objective was not to defeat the ethereal army but to save as many draconian soldiers as possible. With Jack and Arthur hindering the troops here, Pagram and the others should be able to escape.

Jeanny ordered everyone to stop and informed them that they were going to change direction.

Leavemealone asked why the change of plan. Jeanny told him the truth, and the guy just rushed off toward the ethereal troops without asking for permission. He had been eager to return. Leaving Domon alone back there truly didn't sit well with him. Now that he heard Jack was fighting with the troops back there with only one backup, he just couldn't stay back anymore. He would go aid Jack and then go back to look for Domon.

Jeanny called Leavemealone to come back but the dude just ignored her.

"F*ck this!" Jeanny cursed, which surprised almost everyone. Rarely did they hear Jeanny use that particular curse word. Jeanny was fed up, this Leavemealone never listened to order except if it was from Domon.

"Forget him. Let's go!" Jeanny ordered. Jack, Arthur, and Leavemealone were not people who die easily. The most troublesome one in those troops was only Wong and that man was currently being held up by Domon, so the three should be okay.

Jeanny contacted the leaders of the other teams about their positions. She then guided her team to head to where the other teams hadn't covered, to see if any draconian soldiers there needed help.

With Jack and Arthur creating chaos inside the regiment, the ethereal soldiers were unable to march freely. The intruders were only two people, if most of the regiment just ignored them and continued marching forward, there was nothing Jack and Arthur could do. But luckily, this regiment didn't do so.

The ones at the front were confused why the back line slowed down, so they slowed down as well. Some even went back to see what exactly was the problem. Then they saw the two enemies in their midst. They couldn't believe the others couldn't finish these two off quickly, so they engaged and ended up getting smacked. Others came and saw and had the same thought. It continued to repeat. Hence, the regiment slowed to almost a stop.

Jack and Arthur's levels were already above the average soldiers, and this regiment didn't bring any high-level officers. Jack had a feeling of déjà vu where he was back when solo-fighting a large group of players. This time, he didn't do this against players. The opponents this time were natives, but they were similarly helpless as the players back then.

There were a few players too. Members of the World Maker and the other guilds who submitted to them, but these players died even faster when they encountered either Jack or Arthur.

Soundeffect was among the players. He didn't recognize these two because Jack was in disguise. He didn't expect there were such unknown fearsome players out here. He finally decided that it was just a waste of time trying to deal with these two. He was now looking for the captain of this regiment.

Unlike Wong, Soundeffect's rank was not high enough so the native soldiers here won't listen to his command. He needed the captain to issue orders to these native soldiers. He wanted to leave a few men to keep Jack and Arthur busy while the rest resume their march to chase the fleeing draconian soldiers.

Then, a barrage of twenty large fireballs came assailing the regiment from the front. These fireballs exploded at the frontline, damaging many and killing most players and the basic-grade soldiers. They then saw a single vampire player running toward them. A giant tiger made of white flame materialized beside him. The vampire player and the tiger came crashing into them, causing even more chaos.

The vampire player was Leavemealone who had separated from Jeanny's group. The flaming tiger accompanying him was the Lesser Tiger God Manifestation summoned from his Lesser Tiger God Amulet.

This new chaos caused Soundeffect an even harder time locating the captain of the regiment. Unbeknownst to him, their backline was also experiencing chaos. A lone player, who was an old human, charged into the regiment from the back and just started hacking everyone using his glaive.

This old human was, of course, Domon.

The four just fought inside the chaotic regiment until Domon and Jack met one another at the center of the regiment.

"Gramps! Uh… I mean, Domon! Why are you here? I thought I already asked Jeanny to leave this place to me," Jack asked.

"Who are you…? Oh right! You did show me this form before," Domon said. Remembering Jack's third disguise. "But what are you talking about? I'm here because I'm trying to cut my way back to Jeanny."

"Huh?" Jack then noticed his grandfather come from the rear side of this regiment.

"Domon, you come to join this fun?" Arthur greeted.

"Old sword! How come you are here?" Domon asked back.

"I follow your grandson," Arthur replied.

"Arthur…! Stop telling others who I am! We are with the enemies here," Jack yelled.

Leavemealone also stumbled into them. "Master, you are here! I tried to go back to find you," he called.

"Haon! Didn't I ask you to stay with Jeanny?"

"I'm sorry, Master. I just can't stay calm letting you face the enemy alone."

"What the hell is going on here? Argh…! Never mind! Let's just beat these enemies and make them as confused as we are so they can't continue their pursuit!" Jack shouted.

So, they continued to create havoc in the regiment. Soundeffect, who was still trying to find the captain, was killed when he stumbled into Domon. He never knew that he was running a fool's errand, because the captain he was looking for, had been killed earlier by the Lesser Tiger God Manifestation.

After disrupting the enemy for more than an hour, Jack thought it was enough time for the draconian soldiers to put a safe distance, so he sent a message to Arthur, Domon, and Leavemealone that it was time to leave.

The regiment didn't try to give chase. They were just glad those four demons had decided to leave.

As they were leaving, Jack received a message from Easycome, an Everlasting Heavenly Legends member who was stationed in Messephyria. A representative of the Hydrurond monarchy had looked for the members of their guild. This representative bore a message for both Jack and Jeanny.

Queen Frorryntiar of Hydrurond wished to speak to them.
