Chapter 150 - The Riots
Riots broke out and the city was in a complete mayhem .... Thousands of NPC's had taken it to the streets to protest against the blood succession. The royal guards had a hard hard time mentaining order as the protestors greatly outnumbered the guards.
An imperial verdict was brought to bring in the army , but even the army was divided in two factions , there was internal turmoil as several key army figures refused to acknowledge the new monarch as the emperor.
The entire kingdom was in a bloody mess and at the heart of the mess was the alliance.
Summoned by Emperor Aman as a reserve force to quell the rebels . They were forced to patroll the streets under the imperial banner.
The severe backlash that the guild recieved from the patrolling had just started , currently only they faced a severe shortage of manpower as they were required to patroll 18 areas in the outer district. Hence each?guild was made to patroll 3 areas.
A guild mission was issued for every member making it compulsary to take part in the riots.
However the sheer casuality of party members dying in controlling the riots was taking a toll on the guild.
The members were loosing levels , loosing equipment durability and loosing time, time they could have used levelling . Over 20 thousand members died each hour and the sheer amount of monetary compensations that the guild had to roll out were over 100K?gold an hour for deaths .
The guilds were bleeding money by the hour as well as deteriorating their overall strength , all in hopes of a ultimate reward to be given at the end of the endeaver , however Rudra knew that the reward will not be worth it.
Rudra instructed the Elite's to take this time and just do levelling , stay in the wild and away from the chaotic city as much as possible.
Neatwit took his first role as an elder as he took about 100 guild members under his wing for levelling. Naturally the guild members found it difficult to keep up with their maniacal levelling freak of a leader , as Neatwit kept grinding mobs after mobs without a single rest.
The trolls were hardly his match, as his sword cut through them like butter. This was a much needed exercise as every guild member was consciously working hard to increase their strength for the incoming war.
However while the city was plunged into chaos and the alliance members had an absolute nightmare handling the riots.?The worse was yet to come.
Equipping the mask , Rudra changed his id from Shakuni --> Augustus Won Knight and started wrecking mayhem on the alliance patrolling parties.
Wearing the True Elite's robes , he decisively killed hundereds of patrolling alliance members . After he had gained the title of Honorary Bishop , his infamy did not rise by a single point . Hence he slaughtered at will.
Currently he was stalking a group of alliance members of the Azure lotus and RealManchester party members who had taken to raiding and pillaging NPC stores in the name of patrolling.
Rudra hesitated for a second , as the members infront of him were from Yua's guild , hence he decided to give them a pass for now , however an unexpected event changed his decision.
The group which had looted more than 12 NPC stores now walked towards the Elite lifestyle store ! There were two guards guarding the store however they were no match for the 30 adventurer party armed to the teeth.
Under usual circumstances , attacking those guard's would have lead to reinforcements coming from the royal guards division and arrest of the violating parties . However now that the royal guards were busy in handling the riots and that the city was currently lawless they dared to attack the Elite lifestyle store.
Rudra glared at the group ..... The AUDACITY! , The previous thoughts of mercy instantly dissapeared from his mind as he felt the need to teach the party a lesson.
An member of the RealManchester guild said " I cant wait to raid the True Elites lifestyle , they have all kinds of great potions and armours , i really want to upgrade from this trash .... Seems like we can now ".
Hehehe.... Sniggers could be heard from the party . The daylight robbery had made them bold , they felt like masters of the world who could do as they pleased.
An Azure Lotus member said " i have been tired of the rich elites , just a small fry guild yet they have more money?than all of the alliance combined , just how good is it to have Ethan Grey as your backer ".
Everyone nodded , they were all having a severe inferiority complex to the elites . As everyone here knew that compared to them , they might as well be trash. However they could not accept that fact , hence they credited their success to their backing.

However should they learn that the Elite's wealth was their own earnings , and the actual ammount of assets the guild possesed , their entire worldview might collapse !
The elites were richer than the rich , having more money than the entire alliance's pool combined and doubled.
All between 500 odd members.
The party looked at the two NPC guards with killing intent as the two instantly took battle stance . However at this moment a figure landed from the Neighborhing rooftop between them and the guards.
A figure whom the alliance could never forget. That madman.?The one with the mask . The one responsible for the death of thousands of Alliance members . The infamous Augustus Won Knight !
