Chapter 86: The Game's Intention

I abandoned my plan to go to Fairy Forest and went back to Oakstone Tavern right away.

By the time I reached the tavern, those from Dominion guild already gathered there with pale faces. Cold sweat drenched their faces, making them look as if they had just seen a ghost. They were all very quiet, which was atypical for Dominion guild members.

Cecilia and Aurendiria were in the middle of distributing cups of hot cocoa when they saw me enter. They both winked me over.

"Antares, come. Come and sit."

I sat next to a Dominion member, a Spear Master by the ID GenjiSan. He looked particularly pale and sweated more than his guild members. I reckoned that he was the exact person who saw DragonTalon disappear.

"Hey," I greeted him.

"Hey," he said back to me.

"What happened?" I asked with a frown.

"Let's wait until everyone is here," Aurendiria told me. "Drink your hot cocoa, Antares. You will need it."
